Fresh Foundation: Tithing & Honoring God First // Fresh Fruit (Part 6) // Michael Todd

The greatest in the kingdom is the one who humbly serves all! We should all seek to make others greater. Tim Ross preached an impactful message that reminded us to humble ourselves, put others first, and listen to Holy Spirit. If we ever see ourselves puffing up or feel arrogance and ego flaring, we must remind ourselves to GET DOWN HERE—to the place of humility.Scripture References:Luke 22:24-27 NLTEphesians 4:2 NLTPhilippians 2:3-4 NLTJames 4:6-10 NLT1 Peter 3:8-9 NLT1 Peter 5:6 NLTPhilippians 2:5-11 NLT

God wants to fill you with joy and peace so that you can overflow with confident hope! Before we walk in overflow we must know that trust in God as our Source is the prerequisite. With a powerful illustration, Pastor Mike walks us through how to stay in position for overflow; picking our source (God), picking your size (faith), picking your stance and picking your story. We pray that this message encourages you to not only stay close to The Source, but be surrendered so that you can receive the fullness that God has for you!Scripture References:Romans 15:13a NLTRomans 15:13b NLTEphesians 3:20 NLT1 Kings 18:21 NIVMatthew 6:24 BSBMatthew 16:26 NLTMatthew 9:28-30 NKJVIsaiah 40:31 KJV2 Kings 2:9-11 NIV

Pastor Mike dismantled the need for perfection in our journey with God in Week 8 of the Fresh Fruit Series. Is your ability to walk in faith being hindered by the impact of failure in your past? In this message you will learn how to get familiar with failure, factor it in, frame it right, find the fruit and fix your focus on Jesus!Scripture References:John 21:3-6 NLTProverbs 24:16 AMPJames 1:2-4 NLTRomans 8:28 KJVHebrews 12:2 NIVJohn 21:7 NLT1 Timothy 1:15-17 MSG

You need fresh faith to believe again! Sometimes, we need our faith refreshed in our walk with Christ. Pastor Mike walks us through 4 Keys to keep our faith fresh. When you have a fresh perspective, reminder, expectation, and anticipation, you posture yourself to see what God has in store for you. We pray that this message reignites you to get into God’s presence and refresh your faith!Scripture References:1 Kings 18:42-46 NIV1 Kings 18:1-2 NIVEphesians 3:20-21 NIV

In the kingdom of God, tithing is the foundation of our finances. Jesus redeemed us from the curse of not tithing, but when we don’t tithe, we rob God of the opportunity to bless you. We don’t want there to be a cap on what God wants to do in our lives! We pray this message is a reminder of how we can put Jesus first in our finances.Scripture References:Proverbs 11:24 MSGMatthew 6:19-21 NLT1 Corinthians 3:10-11 NLTMalachi 3:6-10 NKJVGalatians 3:13a NIVLuke 11:42 NKJVHebrews 7:8 NKJV

What would it look like if your life was full of fruit? The key to bearing MORE FRUIT is managing the seed that God gives us. In this message, Pastor Mike gave us a reminder of the power of being a seed sower. Every time is the right time to sow in the kingdom because God continues to supply and multiply the seed that we sow. We pray that this message empowers you to make the DECISION to be the sower that God needs you to be in the Earth.Scripture References:John 10:10 NIV2 Corinthians 9:10 NKJV2 Corinthians 9:6-11 NIVEcclesiastes 11:4-6 NLTProverbs 11:24-26 MSG

Cutting may be painful, but being cut by God is a promise of more fruit in your life.In this compelling message, Pastor Mike reveals the transformative power of God's cutting process. Drawing from Matthew 7:18-20 and John 15:1-3, he unpacks how God's cutting eliminates what isn't producing and expands what is.We pray this message encourages you to embrace surrender and trust in God's plan for growth and transformation, knowing that His cuts are ultimately for your good and His glory.Scripture References:Matthew 7:18-20 NKJVJohn 15:1-3 NLTHebrews 11:6-11 AMPProverbs 27:6 AMPMatthew 27:50-52 NLTJohn 15:5 NLT

The church is not just a physical place; it’s a people. WE are the people! In Week 3 of the Fresh Fruit Sermon Series, Pastor Charles preached a powerful message that reminded us of the power of the church. Our presence is needed to keep the church FRESH. We pray that this message causes you to walk in your authority as the church, invite people, and be formed in a local church so that you can produce fruit.Scripture References:Matthew 16:13-18 NLT

In this year of fruit, God is pruning and cutting us in areas that do not bear and areas that He desires to see more fruit. To keep from perishing, we have to receive vision to keep us ALIVE. In Week 2 of the Fresh Fruit sermon series, Pastor Mike shared fresh vision for Transformation Church with us and taught us how to have a vision for fresh fruit. This year our focus will be on having tested faith, trusted friends, and being in a space of training for spiritual formation. Let’s commit ourselves to this new level of faith, friendship, and formation, trusting that God is going to cause us to bear MORE FRUIT!Scripture References:John 15:16 NLTHabakkuk 2:2 NKJVJohn 15:1-2 NLTJames 1:2-4 NLTProverbs 17:17 NLTActs 2:42 NLT

What if the next thing God wants to do with you isn’t new but fresh? Pastor Mike challenges us to consider that the next phase of God's work may not be entirely new but rather a fresh perspective on what already exists. We’re encouraged to make space for expansion and growth in order to fully embrace the fresh blessings God wants to impart. At the end of this message, Pastor Mike shares with us the gateway to a fresh perspective; gratitude. We pray this message encourages you to receive the freshness that God has in store for you.Scripture References:John 15:16 NIV2 Corinthians 5:17 ESVMathew 9:14-17 NLTPsalms 100:4 NLTPsalms 100:4 MSG
