    Stop Calling it a Season // David Swart

    So often, we mistake "stuckness" for a "season." We build routines that become fortresses, calling it stability when it's actually a refusal to move. Whether you are dealing with the "gravity" of the familiar or the weight of past grief, God is calling you to Lek Leka—to "go for your own becoming."

    After one of the most dramatic events in human history, Noah and his family step off the ark into a new reality. In this sermon covering Genesis chapters 8 and 9, we explore God’s faithful covenant with all creation, symbolized by the rainbow, and the unchanging nature of the human heart.

    Are You on the Wrong Side of the Door? // Aaron Stephens

    We all know the story of Noah’s Ark, but what if it was never just about a boat? In this message, we explore how the story of Noah is actually a prophetic blueprint of Jesus Christ. We connect the dots between the Old Testament and the New, revealing how the specific details God gave Noah—from the "gopher wood" to the one "door"—foreshadow the salvation found only in Jesus.

    The Secret to Finding Abundant Life // Jackie Pullinger

    614 Conference Sunday Special Episode! In this moving and convicting message, legendary missionary Jackie Pullinger shares her heart on what it truly means to follow Jesus into the darkest corners of society. Drawing from her decades of experience in Hong Kong’s Walled City, Jackie challenges the Church to move beyond comfortable ministry and embrace the "lurching disasters" of the world. In this message, Jackie discusses: - The Mandate of the Poor: Why ministry to the marginalized isn't an "optional extra" but the heart of the Gospel. - The Concept of Kenosis: How Jesus emptied Himself, and why our own "emptiness" is actually the doorway to God’s abundance. - Handling Disappointment: Encouragement for those who have been "burnt" by ministry and how to find the grace to go again. - Spiritual Gifts: The practical necessity of the Holy Spirit's power when our own resources run dry. Jackie reminds us that we don't have to go to Hong Kong to find the lost—we simply need to start where we are, waste our "perfume" on the one in front of us, and trust that God will bring the harvest.

    Stop Giving God Your Leftovers // Danny Batarseh

    Is Jesus worthy of everything in your life, or is He not worthy at all? In this continuing study of Genesis, Danny explores the familiar but challenging story of Cain and Abel (Genesis 4:1-16). He unpacks a crucial question: Why did God accept Abel's offering but reject Cain's? This sermon reveals that God’s preference was not about meat vs. vegetables. It was about the heart behind the gift. Abel gave his "first and finest"—a move of complete faith—while Cain merely offered "some"—an act of convenient ritual. Danny challenges us to examine our own lives: Are we offering God our best "first fruits," or just our leftovers? We explore what it means to be a "living sacrifice" in today's world and the danger of letting resentment and comparison "crouch at the door" of our hearts.

    The Power of the Table: Redefining Church Planting with Chris Wienand

    This is a special episode from 614 Conference that features a conversation between David Swart and Chris Wienand. We hope you enjoy this and are stirred to ask the Lord how you are meant to GO! +++++ Is church planting only for the "spiritual elite," or is it the natural calling of every healthy Jesus community? In this session, David Swart sits down with Chris Wienand (Genesis Collective) to discuss the raw, honest, and surprisingly simple reality of starting new churches. Chris shares his "accidental" journey from the Jesus Movement in South Africa to planting a thriving, millennial-led community in Costa Mesa, California, at age 57. Key highlights in this conversation: The "Table" over the "Stage": Why a dining room table is often more effective than a high-budget school hall.The Call to Multiply: Moving beyond just growing a local church to filling the earth with Jesus communities.Apprenticeship: Why church planting isn't a manual you buy, but a life you share through honest, loving "boot camp" leadership.Radical Faith: A miraculous story of how a small community of baristas and students raised over $100,000 in a single offering to give it all away.Whether you feel a stir to lead something new or simply want to understand God's heart for multiplication, this talk will ruffle your feathers and ignite your faith for the "great global gospel adventure." A Note on the Theology of the "Table" Chris references the early church model found in Acts 2:42-47. This lifestyle of "breaking bread from house to house" is the foundation of what he calls a Jesus Community. Instead of starting with complex programs (children's ministry, worship bands, etc.), Chris advocates for building trust, storytelling, and shared life first. As he notes, "Where there is life, there is growth." CHAPTERS 0:00 – Introduction: Chris Wienand and the Genesis Collective 1:21 – Why Church Planting Matters for Every Believer 3:22 – Increase vs. Multiplication: The Genesis Mandate 5:31 – How Do You Know You’re Ready to Plant? 7:47 – The Apprenticeship Model: Getting "Ready for the World" 13:53 – The "Table" Strategy: Launching with Simplicity 19:08 – Reaching the "Far Off": Deconstruction and Unreached Nations 27:50 – A Lesson in Radical Generosity: Giving it All Away 32:42 – 5,000 by Friday: Learning to "Pray Your Money In" 34:22 – Moving from Management to Kingdom Mystery 35:18 – Overcoming the Fear of the "System" 36:05 – Abiding in the Vine: The #1 Secret to Survival 38:05 – Self-Awareness vs. Self-Excuse: Facing the Mirror 40:09 – Spiritual Push-ups: Building a Financial Faith Story 42:21 – Closing: A Call to the Next Generation of Planters

    Biblical Reasons You Need This Conference // David Swart

    Are you ready for a "software update" from the Holy Spirit? In this special service, Pastor David explores the biblical roots of "Holy Convocations" from Leviticus 23 and why setting aside dedicated time for God—through conferences and fasting—can permanently alter the trajectory of your life. We also hear a breathtaking testimony from Coral Jones, whose "yes" at a previous conference led to a miraculous series of events involving a specific man-made island in South Korea and a nine-minute connection seven years in the making.
