Transformation Church

Are you living in right standing with God or have you gotten comfortable in the wrong position? In Week 2 of HAPPY & HUNGRY, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to take an honest inventory of our appetites, identify what’s driving us, and recognize the difference between the sins that trip us up and the weights that slow us down. Through Matthew 5:6 and Matthew 6:33, we discover that righteousness is more than simply being in right standing with God, it’s also about the right treatment of people. Righteousness makes you lean in, not lean back. God never called us to live comfortably reclined in our faith. He invites us to incline our hearts toward Him, hunger for what He desires, and find our fulfillment in Christ. We pray this message causes you to hunger & thirst after righteousness and actively pursue it.

What are you really hungry for? In Week 1 of our new series, HAPPY & HUNGRY, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to examine our appetites and ask ourselves, “Are my desires aligned with God?”
Every day, we're feeding two competing appetites; our flesh and our spirit. The one we feed the most will ultimately dominate our lives. Through Matthew 5, we discover that being hungry and thirsty for righteousness is a blessing because God promises to fill those who desire Him! Pastor Mike gives us practical steps to monitor our appetites, eat the Word daily, align our relationships, and limit the substitutes that keep us spiritually empty. The enemy doesn't have to starve you if he can keep you full of the wrong things, but when you're hungry for the right things, you can live a fulfilled life!

You don't need a perfect past to have a powerful future! What if the very thing you've been through is what God wants to use to transform your future? In this panel, Pastor Michael & Natalie Todd sit down with Carl & Laura Lentz for an honest conversation about overcoming betrayal, offense, opposition, infidelity, and the weight of other people's opinions. Together, they unpack what it means to grow through life's most difficult seasons, embrace accountability without allowing shame to define you, and keep moving forward when others can't see who you're becoming. Your past doesn't disqualify you from God's purpose, and opposition doesn't mean God isn't for you! Your story isn't over, and God is still writing your future!

What if the next move God has for you requires you to leave some things behind? In Week 3 of IT’S TIME, Pastor Michael Todd takes us into Joshua 3, where the Israelites are told to purify themselves because God was preparing to do great wonders among them. Before they could step into a place they had never been before, they had to learn to follow God’s presence and recognize that purity is preparation for God’s power. We may be ready for the promise, but are we ready for the presence? Worry, wounds, idolatry, and wickedness cannot shift with us into what God has next.  Don’t try to get into position before you get into His presence. The battle belongs to the Lord, but the bath belongs to you. It’s time to purify.

It’s Homecoming Sunday 2026 and it’s time to shift! In his first message back from sabbatical, Pastor Michael Todd takes us through Joshua 1:1–9 and reminds us that a God ordained shift can happen just like that. From recognizing what God is saying to you privately, to shaking off the venom of offense and unforgiveness, this message challenges us to stop waiting for everyone else to agree with what God has already spoken to us. The next season of your life will require new courage, new obedience, and a willingness to follow God’s instructions because you can’t carry the vision and the venom. This message will cause you to wake up, ask God what needs to shift, and get ready to move!

What if God is putting you back together, even when you still feel broken? In Week 6 of The Missing Peace sermon series, Pastor Tim Ross takes us into Ezekiel 37 and the valley of dry bones, reminding us that God can bring life to what looks impossible, disconnected, and beyond repair. God told Ezekiel to speak to the bones, and as he partnered with God and repeated what God said, the bones came together exactly where they were supposed to be. You may look pieced together on the outside, but still feel dead on the inside. No matter what your life looks like right now, you can declare: I'm coming back the way God intended me to be. You have indeed been PEACE'D TOGETHER.

Scripture References:
Ezekiel 37:1-14  TLV

What if what you’re going through was never meant to change what God said about you?In Week 5 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross takes us through the story of Joseph, whose journey from the pit to the palace looked nothing like the dream God gave him. Through betrayal, slavery, false accusations, and being forgotten, Joseph refused to let his circumstances rewrite his identity—because his favor wasn’t in the coat, it was in what God placed inside of him. They tried to bury the dream, but they couldn’t bury what God put in him. We’re going through stuff, but stuff doesn’t have to go through us. You are not what happened to you—you are God’s child, and you’ve got plot armor!.

What if the place you’ve been running from is the very place you’re safe to come home to?

In Week 4 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross takes us to one of Jesus’ most powerful stories in Luke 15, the story of the prodigal son. After asking for his inheritance early, leaving home, and spending everything he had, the son found himself broken, empty, and far from where he started. But when he finally decided to go home, he discovered something he never expected: his father had been waiting for him. Once you’re a son, you’re always a son. Once you’re a daughter, you’re always a daughter.

Whether you’ve wandered far away or you’ve been close but living like you don't belong, the invitation is the same: Come home.

You don't have to clean yourself up first. You don't have to earn your way back. You're safe to come home.

Scripture References:
Luke 15:11-32 TLV

What if the greatest miracle you leave with isn't the one you came for? In Week 2 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross reminds us through the story of the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5 that Jesus doesn't just want to meet our immediate need,He wants to leave us with something even greater: His peace. Sometimes we're so focused on getting what we came for that we miss what Jesus is trying to give us before we go. This message challenges us to stay hopeful, stop hiding our stories and start sharing our testimonies, because edited testimonies don't help anyone. In the Kingdom of God, you were never meant to be unseen, unheard, or unknown. Before you go, don't just leave with the miracle you were praying for. Leave with the peace, identity, and hope that only Jesus can give.

What story have you been telling yourself about your life?In Week 5 of FEAR-LESS, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches us that while God is the Author of our story, we have a choice about who we allow to narrate it. Fear will use insecurity, failure, inadequacy, loss, trauma, and disappointment to distort our perspective and convince us that the hardest chapters of our lives are the whole story. But fear doesn’t get the final word. This message will teach you the steps to learn how to take your story back and rewrite it. It’s time to stop letting fear tell your story. Take your story back and trust the Author who knows how it ends.

Have you ever been so certain about someone, your future, or a situation... only to realize you were wrong? In Week 3 of Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf shows us how fear doesn't just make us anxious, it convinces us that our assumptions are facts. Through the story of Joseph, we discover that fear can distort the way we see people, our path, and perspective. Instead of trusting God's process, fear tempts us to create stories, cling to control, and believe that our circumstances define our future. But what if the very thing you thought was working against you was actually preparing you for God's greater plan?

If you've been questioning people, frustrated by the path God has you on, or struggling to trust His perspective over your own, this message will encourage you to surrender your certainty, embrace God's process, and discover that sometimes the greatest breakthrough begins with saying, "I was wrong."

Anxiety is everywhere. But what if anxiety isn't the real problem? What if it's simply revealing something deeper? In Week 2 of Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to stop running from the smoke and start investigating the fire. This message reveals that beneath an anxious spirit is often a divided heart that is wrestling with who or what it truly trusts. Instead of fighting symptoms, we're invited to follow the smoke, identify the source, and allow God to heal the deeper fears driving our anxiety. When we stop ducking the smoke and bring our fears into the presence of God, we discover that He is greater than every threat, every uncertainty, and every "what if."

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or consumed by fear, this message will help you move from reacting to the smoke to confronting the fire and trusting the God who never leaves you alone in the fight.

Fear has a way of convincing us to play small, hide our true selves, and settle for less than what God created us to do. In Week 1 of our new sermon series,  Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to confront the fears that silently shape our lives. We uncovered four common fears that affect us all: the fear of man, the fear of loss, the fear of failure, and the fear of inadequacy. But God's plan isn't simply to remove those fears; it's to replace them with a holy fear. When our God-awareness becomes greater than our self-awareness, fear loses its power and faith begins to lead. For the duration of this series and beyond, may we become less aware of ourselves and more aware of God.

In Week 4 of Six Figures, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to examine whether God truly has first priority in our lives. This message reminds us that honoring God with our increase is about obedience, trust, and recognizing that everything we have comes from Him. We learn that tithing is biblical, generosity is recorded in heaven, and God only asks us to return a portion of what He has already given us. Pastor Mike also warns us not to let greed, culture, or the mistakes of others cause us to abandon God’s principles. Instead, we are called to prioritize obedience and build a legacy of generational blessing. This message will challenge you to reset your perspective and remember that God, not your job, is your source.

God never intended for us to simply survive, He desires us to live an abundant life. In Week 3 of Six Figures, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that generosity is bigger than money… it’s a matter of the heart. We discover that greed, grief, and having the wrong grip on our possessions can quietly attack the condition of our hearts and keep us from experiencing the fullness God promised us. But the cure is found in generosity, gratitude, and grace.This message will challenge you to examine what you’re holding onto, what’s holding onto you, and how God wants to heal your heart from the inside out.

What happens when you’re full of faith but empty in discipline? On Day 2 of Gapstanders Conference 2026, Pastor Michael Todd delivers a sobering and transformational message, “Too Far on One Side,” reminding us that it takes more than prayer and it takes more than a plan. God never called us to choose between faith and work, spiritual power and practical obedience because the miracle is found in the middle. This message exposes the danger of being spiritually thriving while personally impoverished, challenging us to align our inner devotion with outward discipline. If you’ve been praying for breakthrough while avoiding the work attached to it, this message will challenge, convict, and equip you to move with both faith and action.

Everybody wants six figures… but what if we’ve misunderstood what that actually means?In Week 1 of the Six Figures series, we address prosperity, one of the most misunderstood words in culture and Christianity. Pastor Michael Todd breaks down the Word to show us that prosperity is Biblical. God wants us to live an abundant, prosperous life which includes our relationships, our soul, our purpose and yours, our resources. The problem isn’t prosperity, it’s our perception of it. This message will help you reorder your life the right way: love God, love people, and use money.

Most of us believe God has more for us, but are we actually living it? In this message, Better Than Dreaming, Pastor Charles Metcalf unpacks the tension between the life we hope for and the life we’re actually experiencing. In John 10:10, Jesus makes it clear: the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but He came so we could have a full, abundant life. The question is… do you have it? This message challenges us to move beyond just accepting grace and start acting on it. The life you’ve been praying for is often found in the action you’ve been avoiding.If you’re ready to stop just hearing the Word and start living it, this message will show you how acting on grace works in you, on you, and through you, so you can experience a life that’s truly better than dreaming.

No matter what you are going through, darkness has a deadline. In this powerful Easter Sunday message, Pastor Michael reminded us that the resurrection on Sunday does not erase the reality of Friday and Saturday. Many of us know what it feels like to live in the tension of grief, disappointment, loneliness, addiction, fear, anxiety, or waiting for God to move. But even when it feels dark, the SON is always shining. If you have been carrying pain, wrestling with purpose, facing loss, or wondering when your breakthrough will come, this message is for you. No matter how long it has been. No matter how dark it has been. No matter how impossible it feels. CLOCK IT. Darkness has a deadline. Here comes the Son.

God desires for you to prosper in your soul, your mind, will, and emotions, but sometimes footholds and strongholds keep us from moving forward. In Week 7 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd exposes how the enemy tries to gain a strategic position in our lives through soul ties. But we are reminded us of the truth in James 4:7 to resist the devil, and he will flee. This message breaks down the different types of soul ties including initial, influential, idol, and illegitimate intimacy ties, and reveals how they can keep you bound if left unaddressed. But the good news is this, the blood of Jesus is greater than any bond formed in sin. If you are ready to break free, this message will show you how to identify and actively break soul ties so you can walk in true freedom in Christ.

Sex is a topic that impacts everyone and culture doesn’t own it because God made it.  In Week 6 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Charles Metcalf reminds us that one of our first commands was to be fruitful and multiply.  God also created a standard for how it’s meant to be experienced. God is not anti-sex, He’s anti-sin. When we miss His design, it impacts our soul, our relationships, and our future. Through both biblical truth and practical insight, Pastor Charles shows how sex was designed to bond, not break, and why misusing it can lead to disconnection, numbness, and confusion. In this message you’ll understand three goals of godly sex: purity, serving, and sacredness. Whether you’re single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to honor God with your body and align your life with His original design.

Culture may try to convince us that it’s better to be alone, but the truth is marriage is still winning. The real question is: are you ready for it? In Week 5 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that marriage works 100% of the time when we do it God’s way. While culture often teaches that it’s better to marry than to burn with lust, Pastor Mike challenges us to pursue the greater option - developing self-control and surrendering our lives fully to God.This message reminds wives that they are anointed for their husbands and encourages men to provide safety, leadership, and covering for their wives. Whether you are single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to prepare your heart, build godly character, and become the person God is calling you to be before stepping into the covenant of marriage.

This message is for anyone preparing for promise after pain. In Week 4 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that restoration is possible after any level of devastation, destruction, death, divorce, or disappointment. Looking at the story of Ruth, we see how she unexpectedly became a second-time single, yet God redeemed her story and restored her legacy through her relationship with Boaz. If you’ve experienced heartbreak or loss, this message will encourage you to trust God again, make faith-filled decisions, and move forward beyond disappointment. We pray it empowers you to let God take the broken pieces of your story and restore them into something greater than you imagined.

Culture has sold us a counterfeit version of love that feels exhilarating, euphoric, and full of uninterrupted bliss, pleasure and enjoyment. It’s like everyone wants to be “drunk in love.” But in Week 2 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that no one makes wise decisions while intoxicated. Using a powerful illustration with drunk goggles, Pastor Mike shows how being drunk in your soul can distort your walk, your choices, and your relationships. Rooted in 1 Thessalonians 5:5–8, this message calls us to be sober in our soul so we can build relationships with clarity and wisdom. You’ll discover the four things a healthy soul must believe and gain revelation on how to build relationships that are strong, stable, and God-centered moving forward.

This series has the power to change every relationship you’ve had, have now, and will ever have. In Week 1 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that the goal isn’t just chemistry—it’s healthy relationships, and healthy relationships start with healthy people. Pastor Mike unpacks the four foundational needs we all carry: to be seen, soothed, secure, and safe, and challenges us to examine our soul health. God is your soulmate—your spouse is your soul match. When you stop expecting people to fill a place only God can occupy, you make room for relationships that are whole, healed, and built to last.

Culture has a lot to say about love, but this series injects God’s perspective into what culture lacks wisdom on. This message challenges us to ask the hard questions: Is your soul healthy? Are your thoughts healthy when no one else is around? Would you marry you? We pray this message and series gives you the clarity and confidence that you need to win in relationships!

What does it look like to move forward with a solid foundation? In Week 4 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to build for the future by establishing clear standards rooted in Christ. He reminds us that sight without standards leads to self-sabotage and that going forward without the right foundation is foolish. Pastor Michael unpacks why God’s Word is the only standard that remains steady in every season and introduces The Great 8, our church’s Culture Code, as the values shaping who we are and how we build. From Crazy Faith and Generosity to Worship and Fun this message calls us to live out our faith with intention, integrity, and impact.
If you’re ready to stop drifting, start building wisely, and move forward with purpose, this word will help you lay the right foundation for what God is doing next.

What God has done is nothing compared to what He is about to do. As we move forward, we can’t stay stuck in what God already delivered us from. In Week 3 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd reveals that being delivered from something is not the same as being delivered into the promise. This message challenges us to examine where we may still be holding on to our past instead of fully walking in what God promised. We pray this word breaks false thought patterns and helps you embrace the standard God has given to guide your life forward.

Is your past holding you back from moving forward? In Week 2 of the FORWARD Sermon Series, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches us that the prerequisite for moving forward is learning how to properly place our past. Whether your past feels like a trophy you don’t want to let go of, a trap you keep returning to, or a tragedy marked by pain, shame, or grief, God is calling you forward. If you’ve been struggling with the grips of your past, this message will teach you how to remember differently, redeem what was meant to take you out, and represent God’s faithfulness through your testimony. It’s time to press forward into everything God has prepared for you.

What if you couldn’t skip the hard parts, but you could move through them faster? On Week 1 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us to stop avoiding what God is using and learn how to FAST FORWARD into the future He’s prepared for us. Forward doesn’t go around opposition, it goes through it. In this message, we learn how fasting helps us move faster through discomfort, distraction, and disappointment by choosing surrender, obedience, and the courage to D.A.R.E. again. As we reset, God is calling us to release fear, pick up faith, and move forward faster.

Christmas at TC

In a season where finances can feel uncertain and giving can feel triggering, this message invites us to see that Crazy Faith isn’t measured by what we give, but by how we obey. Crazy faith will always be defined by obedience and not amounts. In Week 13 of the Triggered Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd outlines the 4 things God values more than money. God values heart posture, sacrifice, memory, and eternity more than dollars and cents. From the woman with the alabaster jar to the widow’s two mites, we’re reminded that generosity is rooted in trust in God. This message challenges us to give not out of pressure, but from remembering what God has done, who He’s been, and where He’s taking us.

Whatever fills you is what spills out of you. This includes fear, foolishness, faith and so much more. In Week 11 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us with one question: What comes out of you when life squeezes you? Triggers don’t create your reaction; they reveal your internal ammunition. And if we want a different outcome, we have to be filled with something different. This message will teach you how to believe what others don’t, protect the seed of your belief, and believe longer, not just stronger. We pray you get full of faith so that when life squeezes you, what comes out looks like God, not your fears.

Every vehicle needs fuel or a charge to keep going—and as believers, we need to be continually refueled by the Holy Spirit to keep walking in faith. After an incredible Faith in the Fire V4 Conference, Pastor Tim Ross wrapped up the weekend with a powerful reminder that we aren’t flashlights—we’re flames! Through V4 Conference, we learned how to face fires that feel unfair to running boldly into the ones God calls us to. This message will help you stay on fire by staying filled with the Holy Spirit. We pray it reignites your flame and stirs a fresh hunger for more of Him.

Is your lack of emotional capacity shrinking your calling?There are people you are called to reach, but if your emotional capacity doesn’t make room for their differences, faults, and issues, you could be forfeiting your calling. In Week 2 of Triggered, Pastor Michael illustrated the need for believers to expand their emotional capacity so we can truly care for others and not be triggered by trivial things or personal pet peeves. Our goal is to grow in emotional maturity and make space for the people God has called us to. Remember: your triggers and your emotional capacity are calling you daily. Your capacity is your call!

We all have triggers rooted in trauma. When our triggers are unaddressed, they usually lead to a crash out. As Pastor returns from his sabbatical for  Week 1 of the Triggered: Finding Christ in the Crash Out sermon series, he shows us how our triggers are an invitation by God to transformation. In a world that has become great at confessing our issues, we must be ready to change them as well. We pray this message causes you to not fall for the traps of your triggers but lean into the transformation from your traumas.

In Week 4 of the Do Not Disturb Series, Pastor Will Heckenbach shared a powerful word to encourage us to double down and make an unwavering decision to serve the Lord. There is a version of you waiting to overcome the distractions. As he shared a vulnerable moment of wanting to give up, this message showed us what it looks like to truly be decided. This message will show to double down and what you will gain on the other side.

We all have to fight for focus because distractions are present all around us. While our lives feel like they are being pulled apart in different directions, Jesus’ dream is for us to be whole, not fragmented, but focused. In Week 2 of the Do Not Disturb Series, Pastor Ty Lanphere shared an incredible message of how distractions can cause us to drift. Drifting can look like taking action or sometimes not doing anything at all - which is still doing something! This message reminded us to keep our eyes focused on the main thing, Jesus. When distractions meet us, it can end with a decision and our devotion.

Disappointments in life will happen and the enemy’s goal is for us to disconnect from God in those moments. But God is near to the brokenhearted! In Week 1 of the ‘Do Not Disturb’ Series, Pastor Brie openly shared her story of losing her son Ace after 14 days of him being born. Through this experience, she taught us that we should know God’s name, nature and nearness in the midst of disappointment. We pray this message gives you a fresh perspective to know that we can hold heartbreak and hope at the same time.

Have you ever been afraid to try? Have you ever even been afraid to die? In Week 7 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles Metcalf poses the question of what if the fear of death isn’t really as powerful as your fear of truly living? One of the bravest things we can do is not die for Jesus, but live for Him daily and shift the community around us. We pray this message causes you to seek the courage and boldness you need to live like you have nothing to lose.

God chose you, the question is, who will you choose to be? After you accept the freedom of “God chose me”, you still have to decide who you are going to be. In Week 4 of the God Chose You series, Pastor Charles reminds us that in order to become who God called us to be, we will have to become someone different. This is not a license to do whatever we want to do but the freedom to not be a slave to our impulses but have the opportunity to follow Jesus. By the end of this message you will learn the faith, fight and focus you need to become the better you.

In Week 2 of our brand new series, MUSTARD: The Seed That Can Change Everything, Pastor Mike teaches us about Audacious Faith — the kind of faith that doesn’t play it safe. Somewhere along the way, we’ve been taught to have faith that makes sense to our family, our finances, and our future plans. But audacious faith places a demand on what God has already deposited.You don’t need permission to walk in authority — Jesus already transferred it to you. Now it’s time to activate it.If you’re ready to shift atmospheres, challenge average, and walk with boldness, bold, this message is for you.

Money isn’t everything, but it is something! What does money mean to you? In the last week of our sermon series, WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Charles had us take a hard look at our history and relationship with finances. He guided us through 3 ways to be healthier with our money and encouraged us to be truthful about where we are and to trust God in this area. We pray this message not only teaches you how to be a better financial steward but also helps you uncover True Riches!

Throughout the Bible, God works through the principle of multiplication—and one of the clearest pictures of that is when Jesus took five loaves and two fish, blessed them, broke them, and fed thousands.  In Week 4 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd breaks down what we can learn from this miracle and how it applies to our finances today.
This message isn’t just about giving—it’s about graduating from the fundamentals into the fun of generosity. Because in the Kingdom, multiplication only happens when we release what’s in our hands.
If you’re ready to go from just surviving to living a multiplied life—this message is for you!

God has given us the blueprint for living a life of faith, but sometimes we get caught up playing the wrong game. In Week 3 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us to stop hating the player and start changing the game by focusing on God’s Starting 5—Prayer, Bible Reading, Gathering, Fasting, and Giving. These practices keep us aligned with God’s purpose and equipped for spiritual battles.
Pastor Michael reminded us that the game of life isn’t just warm-ups—it’s warfare. We can’t overcome without opposition, and each of these five spiritual practices faces resistance: independence, ignorance, isolation, idolatry, and immaturity. By fixing our eyes on Jesus and committing to God’s game plan, we can experience the joy and freedom that come from living a faith-filled life.

God wants to give us His heart on finances, wealth, and generosity. Every time we experience financial increase, we’re taking an open-book test and God has already given us the answers. In Week 2 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd broke down tithing as a biblical principle and practice established by God of returning the first 10% of our increase back to God through the local church. He debunked myths and misteachings around giving and reminded us that tithing isn’t about pressure, it’s about honoring God. This message speaks to the real feelings many believers have about tithing and reveals the fun and freedom that come with trusting God in this area.

Most of us have been distracted by money instead of being directed by God. Whether you’re worried about how much you have or how much you don’t, this message is going to help you shift your focus and see money the way God does. In Week 1 of the WICKED: The Worship of Wealth Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd broke down how money is simply a tool and it will reveal your heart and remind you who you really are. As we studied the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 6, we learned how worshipping wealth and wasting wealth are both wicked. We pray this message helps you recognize your relationship with money and seek to handle your finances with God’s wisdom.

Your distraction isn’t after your life—it’s after your vision. In Week 8 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us with a question: Is your distraction playing you? Some of us have become so comfortable with our distractions that we don’t even realize they’re draining our strength. Like Samson, we’ve nurtured what was meant to conquer us, and by the time we wake up, it’s already taken more than we ever intended to give. It’s time to wake up and break free. We pray this message helps you identify the exits of distraction and realign your focus on what God has for you in this season!

Distraction doesn’t always come in the form of something obvious—it can be hidden in the details. In Week 7 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael Todd showed us how focusing too much on the details can pull us away from trusting God’s process.Using the journey of the Israelites in Exodus 13-16, we saw how God led them the long way on purpose, not as punishment, but for development. Sometimes, what feels like a detour is actually part of God’s divine design.

But when we fixate on the details of drought, desire, or delay, we can easily become distracted from His direction.  How many details do you need before you obey?We pray this message helps you shift from distraction to devotion and trust that when God leads, He provides.

What’s Fueling Your Focus? In Week 6 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to examine what’s driving our focus—is it fear or faith? If we’re not careful, we can do the right thing with the wrong motive, and a focus fueled by fear will always shrink our future. But when our focus is fueled by faith, it grows in the direction of God’s purpose for us. In this message you will find out how to flip your focus by 3 simple steps so that your faith can grow.

We often think distractions come from people, places, or things—but sometimes, the biggest distraction is what’s happening inside of us.

In Week 5 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael exposed the distraction of comparison through the story of Saul and David. When insecurity takes over, even our allies can start looking like enemies.

We pray this message helps you break free from insecurity, comparison, and fear—so you can walk boldly in the confidence of who God has called you to be!

In Week 4 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael broke down how Delilah repeatedly tried to distract Samson—while he stayed stuck in delusion. The real question is: Are we making room for our distractions? Have we gotten so deep in a relationship with them that we can’t even see what they’re stealing from us? 

We pray this message helps you recognize the traps of compromise and refocus on Godly commitments over temporary distractions.

Double-mindedness keeps part of your life in the light while the other stays in the dark—but eventually, the side you feed the most will win. On this special Anniversary Sunday and Week 3 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael reminded us that we can’t fully embrace God’s promises while still clinging to the pleasures of our flesh. To overcome double-mindedness, we must stay devoted, disciplined, and defended by the people we surround ourselves with.We pray this message challenges you to reflect on your decisions and align your patterns with God’s will.

There’s always a door that leads to destruction. What doors have you left open that need to be shut? Pastor Michael masterfully taught on the importance of being self-aware and not in denial when it comes to the distractions in our life. When we couple distractions with denial we always end in destruction. We pray this message gives you clarity on what doors you need to shut so that you can be open to all the God has for you in this season!

Anchored in our scripture of the year Hebrews 11:1-2, Pastor Michael reminded us that staying focused on Jesus is the key to overcoming distractions. Every distraction begins with a decision, and the first step to deliverance is recognizing that we have the power to accept distractions and choose God’s way of escape. Our decisions flow from our heart, to our minds and then to our hands. The more we dissect our decisions, the more we can change our destiny. We pray this message helps you to regain your focus and recognize how to put death to your distractions.

Every year, we gather for a special service to hear the Word of the Year from our Pastor, Michael Todd, and this Vision Sunday was no different. While many think vision begins with what we see, Pastor Michael reminded us that true vision starts with what we hear. What you hear shapes what you see. Drawing from the story of Nehemiah, we learned how he not only rebuilt the walls but also carried a  God-given burden. A vision from God is always fueled by a burden.We pray this message inspires you to seek God for the burden and vision He has called you to build. Don’t miss the full message as Pastor Mike builds on previous Words of the Year to unveil the 2025 Word of the Year!

During the holiday season, the world often feels full of stress and chaos. But what if we could trade our chaos for peace? In Week 12 of the Receipts: The Proof is in the Fruit sermon series, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that peace isn’t just a feeling—it’s a person, and His name is Jesus. We lose our peace only when we disconnect from Him. Our prayer is that this message inspires you to prioritize His presence, so you can not only receive peace this season but share it with those around you.

Welcome to Week 11 of the RECEIPTS series! This week’s message, "I Don’t Love You Like That," challenges us to redefine love through the lens of God's Word. Pastor Michael Todd demonstrated what we sound like when we operate with gifts without God’s love working in us - we are simply a noisy cymbal. When we allow love to be the beat of what we do, people can experience all the fruit of the spirit from us.
