- 721He Will Guide You | ManhattanProverbs 3:5–8. God doesn't just tell us to trust Him, He shows us why we can. In a world driven by independence and self-reliance, He invites us to lean on the Shepherd who already knows the way. This Sunday Pastor Kevin Myers shows us that peace is found not in control, but in surrender. The same Shepherd who restores your soul, leads you beside still waters, and guides you through the valley is faithful to direct your steps today. True guidance begins when we stop leaning on our own understanding and start trusting the One who never misleads.
- 722The Guided Life | BrooklynProverbs 3:5–8. Life isn't a game to win, it's a journey to be guided. God doesn't promise control or clarity, but His presence. This Sunday Pastor Amy Perez reminds us that The Guided Life begins with surrender, not certainty. The Shepherd doesn't hand us a map. He walks with us step by step, teaching us to trust His voice over our own understanding. True peace is found in following, not figuring it out.
- 723Behold Before You Build | Leadership LessonsExodus 34:6–7. God reveals His name, His nature, and His heart so we can reflect Him rightly. In this weeks Leadership Lessons Pastor Josh Kelsey shows us that the glory of God is not distant or abstract, it's revealed in His character. When we behold Him, we become like Him. His grace justifies, His truth transforms, and His love restores. Christ is the mirror of God and when we look to Him, we see who we're meant to become.
- 724The Advantage: Why Jesus Left So the Spirit Could Come | ManhattanJohn 16:7–15. Jesus promised that it was to our advantage that He would go so that the Holy Spirit could come and dwell within us. This Sunday, Pastor Josh Kelsey reminds us that the Helper is not distant but deeply present. The same Spirit who revealed Christ to the world now reveals Christ in us. Convicting, guiding, and glorifying the Son through our lives. He doesn't simply inform us of truth; He forms us into it. When we feel weak, uncertain, or wordless, the Spirit intercedes, translating our groans into the language of heaven. The Spirit is not optional; He is essential. He is the presence of Jesus with us, and the power of Jesus in us.
- 725When Heaven Prays Through You | Leadership LessonsRomans 8:26–27. The Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. In this week's Leadership Lessons, Pastor Josh Kelsey reminds us that prayer is not performance but participation a divine exchange where the Holy Spirit prays through us. Prayer begins in weakness, but through surrender, the Spirit aligns us with Heaven's will. It's not about getting something from God, but becoming one with Him. Bringing His kingdom to earth. Prayer births boldness, sustains dependence, and turns surrender into power.
- 726What does the Holy Spirit do? What did Jesus already do? | ManhattanRomans 8:14–17 | Galatians 5:22–25. If we live by the Spirit, let's walk in step with Him, the life Jesus lived by the Spirit is now the life the Spirit lives in us. This Sunday, Pastor Josh Kelsey reminds us that the same Spirit who led Jesus now leads us as sons and daughters of God. The Spirit replaces fear with belonging and forms the life of Christ within us growing love, joy, peace, and the fruit that law alone could never produce.
- 727What Jesus Did For Us | Leadership LessonsIn this week's Leadership Lessons, we remember that the gospel is not just what we believe it's what we become through Him. Jesus joined our humanity (John 1:14), took our place (2 Cor 5:21), freed us from sin's rule (Rom 8:15), restored us to relationship (Rom 5:10-11), made us righteous (Rom 5:1), called us His own (John 20:17), set us apart by His Spirit (2 Thess 2:13), gave us victory (Col 2:15), breathed new life into prayer (Rom 6:9-10), lifted us into Heaven's presence (Eph 2:6), intercedes for us continually (Heb 7:25), transforms us from glory to glory (2 Cor 3:18), and leads us as the head of a new humanity (Rom 5:19). The Spirit now makes these truths alive in us reminding us we're not working for acceptance but living from it. Our part is agreement and surrender, letting His finished work form our daily walk.
- 728The Day of Small Things | ALLINZechariah 4:1–10. God gave Zechariah a vision to encourage a weary people rebuilding after exile. The lampstand and flowing oil revealed that revival doesn't come from human strength but through the unending supply of the Holy Spirit. The task wasn't to build by effort but to stay connected to the Source. Pastor Josh Kelsey shows us how this prophecy reminds us not to despise small beginnings. What looks like rubble to us, God sees as a finished temple. The mountain before us is no match for His Spirit, and the same grace that began the work will complete it.
- 729He Favors You | ManhattanJohn 1:16. From His fullness, we've received grace upon grace. The life that pleases God isn't built on striving but surrender a life placed on the altar, renewed by His Spirit, and shaped by grace. This Sunday, Pastor Kevin Myers shares how living as a living sacrifice transforms who we are and why we're here. Grace doesn't just save us; it sustains us. From His fullness He favors you.
- 730The Spirit Led Life | Leadership LessonsJohn 16:7–10 NLT. The Spirit-led life starts with God rescuing us, continues with the Holy Spirit establishing righteousness, and ends with us becoming conduits of His authority. In this weeks Leadership Lessons Olusegun Olujide shows how we were created with a spirit (conscience, intuition, and communion) and a soul (mind, emotions, will). The Holy Spirit restores what was lost through sin, aligning us with God's will so heaven touches earth through us.
- 731Life on The Altar | BrooklynThis Sunday, Pastor Amy Perez shares how the life offered to God becomes the aroma of Christ to the world. Romans 12 reveals that true worship isn't performance, it's surrender. When our lives are placed on the altar, they rise as incense before God, revealing His love, transforming our hearts, and renewing our minds. Every act of trust, obedience, and love becomes fragrance. Your home becomes a temple, your work holy ground, your life worship.
- 732Called Out to Love | ManhattanMatthew 16:13–20. Jesus establishes His Church and gives His people authority. The life that pleases God isn't built on performance but on a foundation rooted in Him a life surrendered, established on the Rock, and strengthened by His Spirit. This Sunday, Kathryn Myers shares how Jesus builds His Church, entrusts us with ministry, and calls us to grow in love. From authority, to assignment, to affection, this is what it means to be called out to love.
- 733God's Group Project: Koinonia in Action | Brooklyn1 John 5:1. Life with God is life with His family. Koinonia isn't just community, it's a shared life shaped by participation, formation, restoration, and mission. This Sunday, Pastor Amy Perez explores how God's people become God's group project: a community that grows together, sharpens one another, heals together, and is sent together. Love for God will always lead to love for His children.
- 734The Maturing Church | Leadership LessonsEphesians 4:11–16. Maturity in Christ is formed through devotion, tested in hidden seasons, and strengthened in community. God grows us so we no longer live confused or immature, but steady, clear, and whole. In this weeks Leadership Lessons Pastor Kevin Myers teaches how maturity refines the heart, restores our view of God and trains us to fight the right battles.
- 735The Theology of The Tithe | Manhattan1 Corinthians 9:10. God calls His people to excel in the grace of giving. Generosity isn't a financial strategy; it's a formation. From Genesis to Revelation, God reveals a pattern: He is first, and His people flourish when their lives reflect His order. This Sunday, Pastor Steve Kelly unpacks how the cross reframes Passover, Sabbath, adultery, and honoring parents and how tithing stands as a principle that passes through the cross unchanged in purpose but deepened in motive. From first-fruits to faithfulness, this message shows how God forms a generous people who carry His heart, His priority, and His mission into the world.
- 736Fully Surrender | ManhattanDaniel 3:16–18, Proverbs 4:23. True strength begins with surrender. In a culture that bows to pressure and fear, the furnace becomes the place where trust is exposed, idols lose their grip, and bondage burns off. This Sunday, Pastor James Powell unpacks how Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego show us "even if" faith the kind that guards the heart, resists cultural idolatry, and reveals Jesus in the very fire meant to break us.
- 737To All Who Received Him | BrooklynJohn 1:1–18. To finish strong, we return to the beginning. John reveals Jesus as the eternal Word who became flesh and gives a new identity to all who receive Him. This Sunday, Pastor Kevin Myers teaches how receiving Jesus makes us full (grace upon grace), makes us His (children of God), and makes us new (born of the Spirit). Kingdom life doesn't start with effort it starts with receiving the One who restores our vision, our identity, and our way of living.
- 738The Standard | Leadership LessonsNehemiah 1–6. Exceptional leadership is shaped by prayer, tested under pressure, and strengthened through clarity and focus. God forms leaders who don't settle for being the exception, but rise into the standard He sets. In this week's Leadership Lesson, Pastor James Powell shows us how Nehemiah exposes the traps of trophies, trauma, and track record and how exceptional leaders pursue God, rise above reality, and finish with focus so the vision stands firm.
- 739ALLINPsalm 92:12; Romans 1:16–17. The righteous don't just survive the heat and storms of life they flourish like palm trees, rooted in Christ, growing deeper in devotion, stronger under pressure, and more fruitful with time as they become shade, strength, and legacy for others. In this week's ALLIN, Pastor Josh Kelsey calls Fount to remember who we are in Christ. Unashamed of the gospel, planted in God's house and maturing into a true house of prayer so that our lives grow beyond sand-level faith into living water, lasting usefulness, and a multi-generational harvest in the middle of New York City.
- 740Strength Beyond Human Capacity | ManhattanIsaiah 40:28–31. When exhaustion twists our view of God, the storm feels final, our limits feel fatal, and hope feels out of reach. But Scripture shows a different story: God doesn't answer weariness with sentiment, He answers it with revelation, exchange, and Spirit-given endurance. This Sunday, Pastor Josh Kelsey walks us through soaring, running, and walking as Isaiah reveals them not as metaphors for self-effort, but as pictures of what happens when we braid our lives into God's strength. In the storm, grace lifts us. In the race, purpose steadies us. In the ordinary, Jesus Himself becomes our strength.
- 741Creation Under Pressure | Leadership LessonsFrom creation to incarnation to resurrection, Scripture shows one pattern: God expands life through pressure. Pressure isn't punishment, it's the environment where roots deepen, clarity forms, and new creation emerges. In this week's Leadership Lesson, Pastor Kevin Myers teaches how the circular patterns of creation, the birth and life of Jesus, and the grain-of-wheat principle reveal the same truth: leaders grow through resistance. As we remain in God, pressure becomes formation, constriction becomes fruitfulness, and what feels tight becomes the very space where His kingdom breaks through.
- 742Hope For The Battle | ManhattanMatthew 1:18–25. This Sunday, Pastor Kevin Myers reminds us the war over sin is already won. When fear rises and battles feel overwhelming, Jesus enters as Immanuel, God with us. Now, the battle is for our faith. In every struggle, God is not distant. He's present, powerful, and fighting for you.
- 743The Everlasting With-ness of a God Who Moves First | BrooklynMatthew 1:23, John 1:14, Genesis 1:1–2. This Sunday, Pastor Brittany Smigielski reveals the everlasting with‑ness of a God who moves first. From creation to Christ to this very moment, God's defining nature is nearness. When shame isolates, suffering overwhelms, or faith feels fragile, Immanuel steps toward us. God is not distant, He is with you, present in every season, bearing every pain, and restoring what was broken.
- 744Furnishing the Heart | Leadership LessonsIn todays Leadership Lesson, Mike Oaks teaches about the furnished room of the Shunammite woman becomes a picture of the heart. The bed calls us to rest and healing, the chair establishes God's authority, the table invites fellowship and formation, the lamp brings light and discernment, and the walls remind us this dwelling is permanent, not seasonal. As we intentionally furnish the heart, we become a place where God rests, leads, and works through us.
