    Qualifications of a Spiritual Father || Samuel Goulet

    In this powerful message, Samuel Goulet invites listeners to move from simply receiving in church to becoming spiritual fathers and mothers who help others grow in Christ. Using Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians 4, he shows that true spiritual parenting is not about titles, recognition, or status—it is about sacrifice, endurance, humility, and love that keeps showing up. With humor, honesty, and stories from family life, Samuel challenges us to let the culture of Jesus overflow from our homes into the church, creating a community where people are pursued, encouraged, corrected in love, and strengthened to walk in the truth.

    Discipleship in the Home || Samuel Goulet

    Samuel Goulet shares a practical and encouraging message on how strong families are built by centering the home on Christ.

This episode challenges families to move beyond condemnation, embrace conviction, and intentionally build homes where God’s Word is lived out, passed on, and reflected in everyday life.

    The Stories We Leave Behind || Jim Davis

    The Stories We Leave Behind Whether intentional or unintentional, the stories we tell with our words and actions shape the  identity and culture of our family..  Today the Holy Spirit wants to help us build families that pass down…. Life Instead of Dysfunction  Healing Instead of Hurt Christ Instead of Mere Tradition     God designed faith to be passed through story Psalm 78: 1-7 Stories carry truth into the heart Children do not just listen to your words, they interpret your life. Brain research and the power of storytelling Research tells us what the Bible has told us all along Stories create shared experience They become part of your child’s internal world - emotional architecture Your family culture is being built every day Healthy legacy is more than just tradition Not everything that has been passed down should be preserved Tradition is not the standard, Jesus is the standard A godly legacy is not blindly preserving the past. It is discerning: what reflects Christ, and what needs healing. Spiritual maturity, learns how to honor the good while healing what was unhealthy Timothy inherited faith 2 Timothy 1:5 Children can survive imperfect parents. But hypocrisy, deeply wounds identity. Children do not need flawless, perfect parents. They need genuine ones. Truth and grace in parenting Jesus embodied grace and truth as stated in John 1:14 Truth without grace creates fear Grace without truth creates instability Truth with Grace creates maturity The stories we tell about failure One of the greatest legacy decisions parents make is how they frame failure Failure is where Grace teaches us to grow The gospel itself is the story of redemption after failure Every day Discipleship Deuteronomy 6:4-7 Faith was never meant to exist only in the church building Children remember consistency over intensity It’s not only the big spiritual moments that teach our children, but the repeated daily rhythms Healing generational patterns requires courage By God’s grace, the blessing of your legacy continues and the brokenness stops here You are not dishonoring your family by pursuing healing You’re honoring God by pursuing wholeness God doesn’t just save souls, He  restores generations Jesus rewrites family stories Shame is not final Addiction is not destiny Abuse is not identity Fear is not your future Jesus enters broken stories and redeemed them God has never required perfect ancestry, He  is looking for surrendered hearts Application Joel 1:3 Tell testimony stories often Normalize repentance Evaluate traditions through scripture Create meaningful rhythms Tell better stories One day, your grandchildren may tell stories about you. What will they say? They loved Jesus sincerely They brought healing They created peace They prayed for me They listened  to me They changed  the direction of our family Or will the cycles continue unchallenged & unhealed? The greatest inheritance we leave is not money, success, or reputation. It is a family story where Jesus remains at the center.

    Family Culture Formation || Samuel Goulet

    Family Culture Formation Culture is the shared set of beliefs, values, customs, behaviors, and habits that shape how a family lives and relates. Beliefs → Behaviors → Habits → Culture BELIEFS • God is central in our home — Joshua 24:14–28 • Truth matters — Ephesians 4:20–25 • Deal with anger before sleep — Ephesians 4:26–27 • Forgiveness is essential — Colossians 3:12–14 BEHAVIORS Behaviors are the visible actions flowing from beliefs. • Praying Together — Philippians 4:6–7 • Speaking Encouragement — 1 Thessalonians 5:11 • Serving One Another — Galatians 5:13–15 • Listening With Patience — James 1:19–20 Repeated behaviors reinforce the spiritual and emotional atmosphere of the home. ` HABITS & CULTURE Habits are behaviors repeated consistently over time. These repeated rhythms form identity and family culture. Habit: Daily Scripture and Conversation About God • Deuteronomy 6:1–9 Healthy family culture develops when godly beliefs shape behaviors, repeated behaviors become habits, and habits form the atmosphere of the home.

    Being Born Again || Samuel Goulet

    If you’ve ever wondered what Jesus really meant by being “born again,” this episode will bring clarity and hope. Samuel Goulet teaches from John 3:1–21, using the miracle of pregnancy and birth as a powerful picture of spiritual rebirth, and walks through Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus to show that following Christ is more than admiring His teachings—it’s receiving new life by the Spirit through faith in the Son, rooted in God’s love (John 3:16). With practical encouragement for growth, cleansing, and daily communion with God, this message invites you to move from living by the flesh to living by the Spirit and to respond to Jesus’ call to new life.

    The Paraclete: Experiencing the Holy Spirit as Helper & Advocate || Samuel Goulet

    In this message, Samuel Goulet unpacks the biblical meaning of “Paraclete” (Paraklētos)—the Holy Spirit as the One who comes alongside as helper, teacher, comforter, and advocate—and shows how Jesus models this role for us. Walking through key passages in John 14–16 and 1 John 2, he invites listeners to trust the Spirit’s guidance, correction, and encouragement in everyday life, from overcoming insecurity to receiving conviction without condemnation. The sermon closes with a practical challenge: don’t let God’s grace “pool up,” but let it flow outward as we comfort, strengthen, restore, and bear burdens for one another in real community.

    Gifts of the Holy Spirit || Samuel Goulet

    In this week’s message at The Mountain Church, Samuel Goulet walks us through what the Bible says about the gifts of the Holy Spirit and why they matter for our church family. He reminds us that gifts are a grace from God—not something we earn—and they’re given “for the common good,” to build others up, not to elevate ourselves. From wisdom and faith to healing, prophecy, discernment, and tongues, Samuel encourages us to stay rooted in Scripture, let love guide every gift, and keep our identity grounded in Jesus. The invitation is simple: let’s step off the sidelines, use what God has given us, and grow into a healthy, united church that strengthens one another and brings Jesus to our city.
