    DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? | Pastor Robe Pierre | Freedom City Church

    What do you see when you look at the future? Do you see obstacles, limitations, and reasons why something can't happen? Or do you see the possibilities of what God can do? In this powerful Vision Sunday message, Pastor Robe Pierre walks through Numbers 13, where Moses sends twelve spies to explore the land God promised Israel. Although all twelve saw the same land, only Joshua and Caleb had the faith to believe they could possess it. They all saw the same land, but they didn't all see the same future. In this message, we are reminded that vision is more than seeing what's in front of us. It's the ability to see beyond our circumstances and move toward God's purpose by faith. In this message, you'll discover: • Why vision sees possibilities where others see problems • How the people around you can influence what you believe is possible • Why comfort can become the greatest enemy of progress • How faith gives you the courage to move beyond your limitations • Why vision without faith is just imagination • How trusting God's strength changes the way you approach obstacles • Why we cannot become comfortable with yesterday's miracles • What's next for Freedom City Church as we prepare to expand into New Haven What began as a vision to reach Hartford has become a movement of people encountering Jesus, discovering freedom, and experiencing life transformation. In just 18 months, we've witnessed: • 2,844 people say yes to Jesus • 3,822 children impacted • 368 baptisms • More than 600 volunteers serving But we're not finished. During this Vision Sunday, Pastor Robe Pierre shares the next chapter of Freedom City's story: FREEDOM CITY NEW HAVEN. One church. Two locations. One mission. Hartford County and New Haven County for Jesus. The same God who brought us this far is calling us to believe for more. More lives transformed. More families restored. More people encountering the love and freedom found in Jesus. The question is no longer whether God can do it. The question is whether we have the faith to believe Him for it. Because the ten spies were calculating what Israel could do, but Joshua and Caleb were considering what God could do. Vision without faith is just imagination. And we believe the best is still ahead. Do you see what we see?

    THE ANATOMY OF A HEALTHY CHRISTIAN PT 2

    Are you physically prepared for the promise you've been praying for? In Joshua 6, the Israelites finally arrive at the land God promised them after 40 years in the wilderness. But standing between them and their promise is the wall of Jericho. They have the faith to believe God for the promise, but they also need the physical strength, endurance, and discipline to walk into it. In this powerful message, we explore a side of Christian living that is often overlooked: taking care of the bodies God has entrusted to us. Because while we spend time developing our spiritual lives, we cannot neglect the physical health required to sustain the purpose God has placed on our lives. In this message, you'll discover: • Why your physical health matters to your God-given purpose • How right consumption impacts your ability to fulfill your calling • Why honoring God includes being intentional about what you put into your body • How right conditioning develops the discipline and endurance needed for your next season • Why the wilderness seasons of your life may be preparing you for the weight of your promise • How right capacity allows you to sustain what you've been praying for • Why preparing for your future requires more than spiritual preparation alone The Israelites didn't begin preparing when the walls of Jericho fell. Their years of walking, enduring, and fighting had already developed the capacity they needed for what was ahead. What they thought was simply a season of waiting was also a season of preparation. And the same may be true for you. Maybe you've been praying for the business, the family, the ministry, the opportunity, or the next level. But have you considered whether your body has the strength and stamina to sustain what you're asking God to give you? Your physical preparation impacts your capacity for the promise. Taking care of your body isn't just about looking better today. It's about preparing yourself to carry the responsibility of tomorrow. God cares about your spirit, but He also cares about your body. Don't wait until you walk into your promise to get in shape. Get in shape now so you're prepared for what comes with the promise.

    WHY AM I STILL HERE?

    Have you ever looked at your life and wondered, “Why am I still here?” You know God gave you direction. You know there’s something He told you to start, leave, build, confront, or pursue—but for some reason, you still haven’t moved. In Deuteronomy 1, the Israelites found themselves at Horeb, a place where God had met them, taught them, and prepared them. But eventually, God gave them a clear instruction: “You have stayed long enough at this mountain.”It was time to break camp and move toward what He had promised. In this Freedom Girls Takeover message, we unpack what can keep us stuck in a season God never intended to become our final destination—and what it takes to finally make the next move. In this message, you'll discover: • How comfort can keep you in a season God has already called you out of   • Why something can be good for one season and become disobedience in another   • How to recognize when preparation has become a place of permanence   • Why courage isn't the absence of fear   • How remembering God's faithfulness gives you confidence for what's next   • Why obedience has a cost—but staying stuck has a cost too   • How one act of obedience can impact people beyond you   • Why you don't need the entire plan to make your next move   Courage isn't waiting until you are no longer afraid. Courage is refusing to let fear make the decision. Maybe you've been comfortable. Maybe you've been afraid. Maybe you've been calculating what obedience will cost you. But eventually, the question has to change from “Why am I still here?”  to "What am I going to do next?” You don't have to make every move today. But you do have to make the next one.

    THE FAMILY GROUPCHAT PT 3

    What comes with being part of the family of God?  When we give our lives to Jesus, we aren't simply forgiven—we are adopted into God's family. And with that relationship comes an inheritance. Ephesians 1 teaches that through Jesus Christ, we have been adopted as sons and daughters, and Romans 8 reminds us that as God's children, we are also heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. THE FAMILY GROUP CHAT PART 3 In Part 3 of The Family Group Chat, Pastor Robe Pierre unpacks three benefits that belong to the family of God: healing, freedom, and power.  In this message, you'll discover:  • Why your relationship with Jesus gives you access to an inheritance  • How the cross gives us a foundation to believe God for healing  • Why what you're experiencing doesn't have to change what you believe about God  • What it means to live from freedom instead of constantly fighting for freedom  • How knowing who you are in Christ changes the way you confront bondage  • Why the Holy Spirit gives believers power and spiritual authority  • How faith determines what gets the final word in your life  Through Jesus, we don't have to allow our circumstances to redefine what God has declared.  When your body says sick, you can stand on: I'M HEALED.  When your chains say bound, you can stand on: I'M FREE.  When your circumstances say powerless, you can stand on: I'VE GOT POWER. THE FAMILY GROUP CHAT PART 3  This isn't about denying what you're experiencing. It's about deciding what gets the final word.  Faith doesn't necessarily deny what I see. Faith decides what gets the final word.

    HE CAME ALL THIS WAY FOR ME

    HE CAME ALL THIS WAY FOR ME | Pastor Robe Pierre | Freedom City Church How far will Jesus go to reach one person? In Mark 5, Jesus encounters a man whose life has become defined by his brokenness. He is tormented, isolated, bound, and living among the tombs. His community had seemingly given up on him, and Scripture doesn't even tell us his name—only his issues. But while this man wasn't looking for Jesus, Jesus was already coming for him. In this powerful message, Pastor Robe Pierre reminds us that the grace of God will cross every barrier to reach us. Jesus left the crowd, crossed the sea, went through a storm, entered unfamiliar territory, and confronted everything holding this man captive. Everything about the man said, “Stay away.” Everything about Jesus said, “I’m coming closer.” In this message, you'll discover: • Why you're never too far to be found • How grace can find you even when you aren't looking for God • Why you're never too messy to be loved • How Jesus comes closer in the middle of our brokenness • Why surrender is the key to experiencing freedom • Why you're never too broken to be restored • How one encounter with Jesus can completely change the story of your life The same man who entered Mark 5 known by his bondage left with a testimony. The man who once lived among the tombs was later found sitting, dressed, and in his right mind. Same man. Different condition. His issues were no longer telling his story—mercy was. Jesus didn't just bring him out of bondage. He restored what bondage had taken from him and sent him back home. Back to purpose. Back to community. Back to clarity. Back to dignity. Back to his right mind. Back to life. No matter how far you've gone, how messy life has become, or how broken you feel, Jesus is still coming closer. He came all this way for you. And because He came all this way, you don't have to go home the same way you came.

    THE FAMILY GROUP CHAT PART 2

    What has been running through your family? In Part 2 of The Family Group Chat, Pastor Robe Pierre walks through the story of Abraham and the generations that followed him to reveal a powerful truth: families can pass down both blessings and broken patterns. Abraham received an incredible promise from God—God would bless him, make his name great, and use his life to bless generations. But in the very same chapter, Abraham also introduced a pattern of fear, lying, and deception that would eventually show up in his son Isaac and later in his grandson Jacob. Different generation. Different situation. Same pattern. What begins as something small can eventually become normal. And when dysfunction goes unchallenged long enough, it can stop looking like one person's issue and start becoming the culture of an entire family. But your family's story doesn't have to end with what went wrong. In this message, you'll discover: • Why you have to beware of what you normalize • How small compromises can become generational patterns • Why understanding where dysfunction came from doesn't mean you have to continue it • How patterns can become cycles that affect generations • Why you must identify what needs to stop with you • How faith, forgiveness, freedom, and integrity can become generational patterns too • Why God doesn't just want you to break curses—He wants you to build blessings If dysfunction can travel, faith can travel. If bitterness can travel, forgiveness can travel. If addiction can travel, freedom can travel. If brokenness can become a pattern, blessing can become a pattern too. Everything that runs in your family doesn't need to be broken. Some things need to be built on. God told Abraham, “I will bless you... and you will be a blessing.” What God places on your life isn't supposed to stop with you. A generational blessing is something God begins in one generation that produces fruit in the generations that follow. Maybe God saved you because somebody in your family had to be first. The first to pray. The first to forgive. The first to get healthy. The first to break the pattern. The first to bring Jesus into the family. We've spent enough time talking about what runs in the family. Maybe it's time for JESUS to run in the family.

    THE FAMILY GROUP CHAT PT 1

    THE FAMILY GROUP CHAT | Pastor Robe Pierre | Freedom City Church What do you do when it feels like God didn’t show up when your family needed Him most? In The Family Group Chat, Pastor Robe Pierre walks through the story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus in John 11—a family who loved Jesus, followed Jesus, and believed in His power, yet still experienced sickness, disappointment, grief, and loss. Lazarus dies, but what looks like Jesus arriving too late becomes the setting for something far greater than the family expected. Mary and Martha wanted a healing. Jesus was thinking about a resurrection. This message reminds us that God’s silence is never God’s absence. Just because you cannot see Him moving does not mean He isn't working. Sometimes God is doing something much bigger than what you can perceive in the moment. But the miracle wasn't only about Lazarus. Jesus was also thinking about everyone standing around the tomb who still didn't believe. The resurrection of Lazarus became an opportunity for people outside the family of faith to witness the glory of God. In this message, you'll discover: • Why God’s silence does not mean God’s absence • How God can be working even when you cannot perceive it • Why Jesus is always thinking about who is missing from the family • How God can use your pain, process, and testimony to reach someone else • Why your story has Kingdom purpose • What Lazarus’ resurrection teaches us about reaching people who don't yet believe • How your testimony can help expand the family Your story isn't just about what God brought you through. Your story may become the evidence someone else needs to believe. There comes a point in our walk with God where the question shifts from “What can God do for me?” to “How can God use me?” This is our season to tell the story. This is our season to share what God has done. It’s time to expand the family group chat.

    ALL IN PT 3

    What happens when you stop depending on yourself and go all in with God? In Part 3 of ALL IN, Pastor Robe Pierre teaches from Ezra 8:21–23, where Ezra refuses to move forward on the journey to Jerusalem without first seeking God through prayer and fasting. Ezra understood that what was ahead of him was too important to face without God. Prayer is more than a spiritual routine. Prayer says, “God, I need You.” It brings us to the end of our own ability and teaches us to depend completely on God. There are decisions we cannot figure out, doors we cannot open, habits we cannot break, and burdens we were never meant to carry alone. Prayer is where ability ends and dependence begins. But Ezra didn't only pray—he fasted. Prayer says, “God, I need You.” Fasting says, “God, I want You.” Fasting teaches our appetites that they are allowed to speak, but they are not allowed to lead. When we fast, we intentionally deny one appetite to feed another and declare that God's presence matters more than our comfort, pleasure, routines, or personal satisfaction. In this message, you'll discover: • Why prayer is an admission of our dependence on God • What it means for prayer to truly become our lifeline • The difference between needing God and wanting God • How fasting strengthens self-control and puts our appetites back in their proper place • Why private dependence should match our public declaration • How prayer and fasting deepen our connection with God • What could be waiting on the other side of intentionally seeking God Ezra and the people had a need. They prayed. They desired God. They fasted. And God answered. What could be on the other side of a church spending 21 days saying: “God, we need You, and God, we want You”?
