    The Assignment

    Send us Fan Mail A packed church means nothing if we miss the real assignment Jesus gives us. We’re opening Luke 14 and sitting with the parable of the great banquet, where invited guests make excuses and the master’s command cuts through the noise: go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. We talk plainly about evangelism, gospel urgency, and what it looks like to “fill the house” with people who actually want Jesus, not just a spiritual add-on.  From there, we connect the dots to Mark 1 and our calling to be fishers of men, then to Matthew 28 and the Great Commission. We slow down on a point many Christians forget: Jesus doesn’t just call us to help someone pray and move on. He calls us to make disciples, to spend time, to teach, to model obedience, and to live in a way that makes the love of God visible. That raises a tough question we all have to answer: when people step back and watch our lives, do they see Jesus or just talk?  Then we go to Luke 14 again for “the cost of discipleship,” because staying on assignment will cost comfort, reputation, and sometimes relationships. We discuss what it means to forsake all.  If you want practical Christian discipleship that is rooted in Scripture and honest about the cost, this one is for you.  Subscribe to Beyond Sunday, share this with someone you’re praying for, and leave a review so more people can find it.

    Don't Play Games

    Send us Fan Mail Losing a battle can make you ask the right question and still make the wrong move. We open 1 Samuel 4 with Israel stunned by defeat, and we slow down on the moment that exposes the real issue: they recognize God’s hand is not with them, but instead of repentance and patience, they reach for a shortcut. We talk about what it looks like to “play church” and why it never delivers real victory. Israel brings the Ark of the Covenant into the center of the fight, hoping God will bail them out, and the result is even more devastating. That story confronts a mindset many of us slip into: checking boxes, getting loud in worship, quoting verses, then expecting God to fix what our disobedience keeps breaking. We unpack the difference between believing in God and walking with God, and why you can’t chase the fruit of a godly life without living one. We also speak plainly about spiritual warfare. When you start getting serious about prayer, church, and leaving old habits behind, the enemy notices. That’s why the call is not to perform faith, but to be transformed, to be born again, and to live by the power of the Holy Spirit with a real relationship with God. We close with a clear invitation to surrender to Jesus and trust Him not just to save your day, but to save your life. If this challenged you, share it with a friend, subscribe for more Beyond Sunday, and leave a review that helps someone else stop playing games and start following Jesus. Support the show

    Keep Faith In Your Camp

    Send us Fan Mail A giant doesn’t just show up to fight you, it shows up to talk you into fear. We walk through 1 Samuel 17 and get painfully practical about the “Goliaths” we face today: addiction, anxiety, shame, broken habits, spiritual attacks, and the quiet lies that say you’re not enough. When Israel keeps staring at the size of the problem, they forget the size of their God, and they start running from battles they were meant to finish. We also dig into the voices around you and the voices inside you. Goliath taunts for forty days, and that’s a picture of what happens when fear is left unchecked: it gets louder, and eventually it sounds normal. I talk about why you can’t live on other people’s faith, why naysayers can’t lead your decisions, and why some of the strongest discouragement can come from your own circle. If you’ve been trying to “hide” your giant in the back room of life, this message is a call to bring it into the light and deal with it. Then we follow David’s mindset: he doesn’t rely on hype, he relies on history with God. The lion and the bear become his proof that God can deliver again, and his victory makes one point clear: the battle is the Lord’s. If you need Christian encouragement, stronger faith, and a grounded way to think about spiritual warfare, this is for you. Listen, subscribe, and share Beyond Sunday with someone who’s carrying a heavy fight, then leave a review to help more people find it. What giant are you ready to stop giving time to?

    How A Men’s Meeting Builds Brotherhood

    Send us Fan Mail A lot of men carry the same fear in silence: “I’m the only one struggling.” Ground Zero exists to prove that lie wrong. We gathered around the table with four leaders from Christ Family Outreach Church in Amelia, Virginia to talk about what happens when men show up hungry, put down the mask, and choose brotherhood. We dig into why a monthly men’s meeting can become a catalyst for real change: accountability that sticks, relationships that keep you standing, and a church community that feels like family. You’ll hear how something as simple as dinner around tables can break isolation, why bringing sons and grandsons matters for the next generation, and how friendships formed at church can protect you from getting pulled back into your old life. Then we talk worship. There’s nothing like hearing 80 to 100 men sing, pray, and fill an altar with expectation. We share how unashamed praise becomes a training ground that carries into Sunday mornings, into the workplace, and back home into marriage and parenting. We also get personal about the battles men face, from learning to receive love to leading with courage, and why we’re praying for a tangible encounter with the Holy Spirit that “takes our breath away.” If you’re looking for a Christian men’s ministry focused on spiritual growth, discipleship, and godly leadership, press play, share this with a man you care about, and subscribe so you don’t miss what’s next. After you listen, leave a review and tell us what kind of brotherhood you want to see in your church. Support the show

    This Day Pt. 2 with Pastor Lee and Frankie

    Send us Fan Mail You can’t live on “I don’t know” forever. Pastor Lee Day sits down again with CFO Church men’s leader Frankie Brown for part two, and we land on a hard but freeing line from Joshua 24: choose this day whom you will serve. Not next week. Not after things calm down. Right now. We talk honestly about why a culture full of options can still produce people who feel stuck, lukewarm, and split between God and whatever promises quick comfort. From there we open Jeremiah 2 and let the imagery do its work. God calls Himself the fountain of living waters, yet His people trade that for broken cisterns that can’t hold water. That’s not just ancient history. It looks like self striving, chasing control, and doing life “my way” until you’re worn out, dry, and confused about how you got there. Frankie shares how core lies and misplaced blame kept him from trusting the Father, and how Scripture started hitting with conviction and hope, leading him toward redemption he couldn’t earn. We also challenge what we call polluted water: spiritual habits that look fine on the outside but have no life because the Word is missing. Then we shift to provision and obedience in 2 Kings 4, where a widow’s oil keeps flowing behind a shut door until there are no more empty vessels. The takeaway is practical and repeatable: choose God, remain in step with God, serve God, and be obedient to God, then watch Him fill what you can’t fill. If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a friend who feels spiritually dry, and leave a review so more people can find it. What “well” are you tempted to dig again instead of letting God be your living water? Support the show
