The Word That Called You Will Carry You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's a fear most of us don't talk about in church — not the fear you face before you say yes to something, but the fear that shows up right after. In this message, Pastor Garrett Black looks at Matthew 14:22–33, where Peter steps out of the boat to walk toward Jesus on the water, and unpacks three "winds" that show up the moment you obey: insecurity, isolation, and resistance. If you've ever said yes to something you felt God leading you toward, and then immediately started wondering if you h
Desperate Faith Doesn't Wait for a Crisis (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Desperate faith doesn't wait for a desperate situation. When you have a lot of options, faith tends to get casual — but when you only have one, something changes. In this message, Pastor Garrett Black looks at Luke 8:40–48, where a woman who'd been chronically ill for twelve years reaches for Jesus in a crowd without him even noticing her, and walks through what her desperation reveals about real dependence on God. If you've been waiting for the right moment, the right conference, or the right p
3 Steps to Truly Encountering God (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Feeling God’s presence during worship or prayer is powerful, but is it possible we’ve settled for just the feeling and missed the actual encounter? In this message, we unpack why feeling God’s presence is like hearing a doorbell—it’s a cue that He's there, but nothing changes until you get up and open the door. We address the plague of spiritual passivity in modern church culture and look at Abraham’s story in Genesis 18 to learn how choosing effort over excuses moves us into true spiritual matu
The One Thing You Can Never Burn Out On (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Right after Israel breaks their covenant with God, Moses does something unexpected — he doesn't fix things first, he runs to the tent of meeting and spends time with God. In this message, Pastor Garrett Black walks through Exodus 33-34 to show why presence, not productivity, is the real cure for burnout, and what happened when Moses asked God for the one thing that could've cost him his life: "show me your glory." You'll hear how Moses' prayer life changes once he encounters God's character firs
Wisdom Keeps Your Blessing From Becoming Your Burnout (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's a version of wisdom you can get for free from a chatbot — and a version you can only get from someone who's actually lived it. Pastor Garrett's father-in-law has been a pastor for over 40 years, and one 30-minute car ride with him is worth more than any amount of scrolling for answers. In Exodus 18, Moses is about to learn that lesson the hard way — until his father-in-law shows up just in time to stop it. In this message from our Burnout Proof series (Exodus 18), Pastor Garrett Black wa
