The Pursuit of Happyness I Robert Madu I Social Dallas

As we kick off Social at the Movies, Pastor Robert Madu unpacks powerful life lessons through the inspiring film “The Pursuit of Happyness.” The story of the main character, Chris Gardner, isn’t just a tale of rags to riches — it’s a journey of resilience, sacrifice, and unwavering hope when everything seems to be falling apart.  In the darkest moments — our “cave seasons” — we discover we’re never truly alone. God is there, reminding us who we are and revealing who He is. It’s in the pain and pressure that we learn: when we pursue Jesus, His dreams for our life begins to pursue us.

In “It's Gametime,” Michael Jr. uses his gift of humor to show us that everything we’ve been through — the good and the bad — has been practice for what God is calling us to. Even when we feel overwhelmed, the most important thing is to hear our Father’s voice, open our eyes, and remember that He’s right there with us.  Jesus doesn’t just want access to the “good room” in the house of our lives — He wants us to invite Him into every part.

In “Extra Ordinary,” Pastor Josh Castañeda teaches us that God can do extraordinary things through our ordinary lives. Because Jesus is with us in the ordinary, nothing we do is insignificant. Through the story of David, we see that our “ordinary” is not a prison, but a place of preparation for what God is getting ready to do. If we can steward the ordinary, God can trust us with the extraordinary. Thank you for partnering with Social Dallas!

In “Father, Forgive Them,” Pastor Robert Madu powerfully reveals that forgiveness does not just flow to us, but it must flow through us.  By understanding what forgiveness is not, we are empowered to take the step of forgiveness by faith, and not based on our feelings.   Healing doesn’t have to precede forgiveness; it follows it.

In “What Does This Mean,” Pastor Robert Madu explains the reason behind Pentecost Sunday. Pentecost is more than an event—it’s a movement. It’s the moment heaven met earth in power, permanence, and UNITY. The Spirit didn’t just visit; He came to stay. Thank you for partnering with Social Dallas!

In “Off Beat,” Pastor Robert Madu reminds us that God has a rhythm and it includes rest. Drawing from Exodus 16, he shares that the Sabbath isn’t just a necessary break but an act of trust in God’s provision. Once you recognize God’s beat, it’s your responsibility to get in sync. This happens by realizing rest isn’t a reward, its a gift from God that’s available now. Thank you for partnering with Social Dallas!

In his message, Help with the Rest, Pastor Madu delivers a powerful reminder that true rest is found only in Jesus—the one who satisfies our weary and restless souls.

In this Mother’s Day message, Look at the Birds, Pastor Taylor Madu encourages us to release our worries, reminding us that worry only leads to weariness. Drawing from Matthew 6, she points to the birds—carefree yet fully cared for—as a beautiful illustration of God’s provision. Just as He tends to them, He cares for us, equipping us to endure every challenge we face. Thank you for partnering with Social Dallas!

In today’s special birthday message, Pastor Robert shares why the number four holds such powerful significance in Scripture—and why we’re especially grateful for all God has done over these four years at Social Dallas.
