    Holy Habits, Part 2: "Bible Study" // Bryan Shelley (Guest Speaker)

    This Week's Episode Just like food is essential for your physical health, the Bible is essential for your spiritual health. Without food, you become physically weak. Without God’s word, you become spiritually weak. Notice that Jesus said we are to “live by” every Word that comes from God. Do you want a full and fulfilled life? Nourish your soul with scripture. It’s not a luxury, it’s a necessity. 📖 Luke 4:1-4 🗣️ Pastor Bryan Shelley (Guest Speaker) Ready For More? Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You might be wondering what's next for you.

    Holy Habits, Part 1: "Sabbath" // Jimmy McLoud

    This Week's Episode We start with the most overlooked of all spiritual disciplines - Sabbath rest. Sabbath is not about a date circled on the calendar; it’s about the state of your heart. The Holy Habit of Sabbath helps you operate at your fullest potential. When you intentionally rest, you discover that God will do greater things through you in six days than you can do with seven on your own. 📖 Matthew 11:28-30 🗣️ Pastor Jimmy McLoud Ready For More?

    Made For More, Part 6: "The Woman of God" // Monica Peters

    This Week's Episode Our culture has plenty to say about what makes a woman successful, valuable, and beautiful - but God offers something deeper. Proverbs 31 paints a picture of a woman whose life is defined not merely by what she accomplishes or how she appears, but by who she is becoming. Her strength, wisdom, character, and devotion to God influence everyone around her. Whether you’re a daughter, wife, mother, friend, leader, or somewhere in between, God has made you for more than simply meeting the expectations of the world. He is calling you to become a woman whose life reflects Him. 📖 Proverbs 31 🗣️ Monica Peters Ready For More? Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You might be wondering what's next for you.

God made you on purpose, for a purpose - and your life matters more than you may realize. Your story, your choices, your gifts, and even the person you’re becoming are all part of something bigger God is doing in the world through you. In Made For More, we’ll discover how God can use every part of our lives to shape us into the people He created us to be. You don’t have to spend your life wondering why you’re here. God has uniquely created you, strategically placed you, and invited you to play a part in His story. You were made for more.

    Made For More, Part 5: "The Man of God" // Jimmy McLoud

    This Week's Episode The world has no shortage of opinions about what it means to be a man. But long before our culture started defining masculinity, God showed us a better way. In Proverbs, Solomon passes wisdom from a father to a son about the kind of man worth becoming. At the foundation are two qualities that may seem surprising - fear of the Lord and humility. A godly man doesn’t have everything figured out, but he knows who does. He leads, loves, works, serves, and lives from a deep reverence for God. God didn’t simply make you to grow older - He made you to grow into the man He created you to be. 📖 Proverbs 1:7 🗣️ Pastor Jimmy McLoud Ready For More? Have you made a decision to follow Jesus?

    Made For More, Part 4: "Your Purpose Matters" // Jimmy McLoud

    This Week's Episode There’s a difference between being busy and living with purpose. You can fill every minute of your life and still wonder what all of it is actually for. Hebrews 12 points us to Jesus, who lived with absolute clarity about why He was here and allowed that purpose to determine how He lived. God placed you in this moment, in this community, surrounded by these people, with your particular story and gifts for a reason. You weren’t created merely to get through life - you were created to make your life count. Your purpose matters. 📖 Hebrews 12:2 🗣️ Pastor Jimmy McLoud Ready For More?

    Made For More, Part 3: "Your Gifts Matter" // Scott Tuersley

    This Week's Episode You can’t be anything you want to be. Yes, you heard that right, and it’s actually great news. You were never meant to become somebody else; you were created to become fully and exactly who God made you to be. He has uniquely wired you with abilities, experiences, passions, and spiritual gifts that equip you to play a specific role in His mission. You have something to contribute that nobody else can contribute quite like you. The goal isn’t simply to discover what you’re good at - it’s to discover how God wants to use it. You were uniquely gifted because your gifts matter. 📖 1 Corinthians 12:4 🗣️ Pastor Scott Tuersley Ready For More? Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You might be wondering what's next for you.

    Made For More, Part 2: "Your Choices Matter" // Jimmy McLoud

    This Week's Episode The direction of your life is determined by the decisions you make along the way. Beneath those decisions are deeply held beliefs - the core truths that shape what we value, what we pursue, and who we become. Hebrews 11 shows us that Moses made defining choices because he had already decided what mattered most. If we want to become the people God created us to be, we have to identify the truths we’re building our lives upon - because your beliefs shape your choices, your choices shape your life, and your choices matter. 📖 Hebrews 11:23-27 🗣️ Pastor Jimmy McLoud Ready For More?

    Made For More, Part 1: "Your Story Matters" // Jimmy McLoud

    This Week's Episode Your story is still being written. Every victory, disappointment, detour, and difficult season has helped shape the person you are today - and none of it is wasted in the hands of God. Romans 8 reminds us that God is always at work, weaving every part of our story together for our good and His purpose. You may not understand every chapter while you’re living it, but you can trust the Author. Your past doesn’t disqualify you, and your pain doesn’t have to define you. God can use all of it because your story matters. 📖 Romans 8:28-29 🗣️ Pastor Jimmy McLoud Ready For More? Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You might be wondering what's next for you.
