“Holding on Is Hurting You” by Pastor Daniel Floyd

What does it mean to be truly pursued? Continuing our “That’s a Great Question” series, Pastor Daniel reminds us that Jesus doesn’t passively wait for us to find Him on our own. Instead, He pursues us and is ready with joyful anticipation to welcome every person who repents and believes in Him.

Pastor Daniel Floyd begins our “That’s a Great Question” series with a question Jesus asked the twelve disciples: who do they think He is? Their answers reveal the state of their hearts, their trust in Him, and their trajectories moving forward. In this message, Pastor Daniel teaches us how our answers to the same question reveal our relationships with God and can even shape the future of them.

What if we’ve been seeing ourselves and others all wrong? As we conclude our “It’s Complicated” series, Pastor Jelani Lewis invites us to take a fresh look at our own hearts and the people around us. Through Scripture, we’ll discover how God looks at the heart and how embracing our identity in Christ transforms us so we can view everyone with greater compassion and grace.

Some relationships come and go, but how do we identify and steward the ones God has placed in our lives? These iron-sharpening-iron people bring joy, healing, and correction, and they encourage our individual relationships with the Lord. But the responsibility goes both ways. Continuing our “It’s Complicated” series, Pastor Tammie helps us recognize what a true friend looks like and how we can be one ourselves.

Holding on to hurt may feel justified but it could be holding you back. Relationships get messy when we harbor bitterness and unmet expectations—often costing us more than we realize. In our “It’s Complicated” series, Pastor Daniel shows us how forgiving like Jesus forgave and dealing with the root issues can bring us healing and restore our connection with God and others.

What if the way we love is the most important message people ever hear about Jesus? Beginning our new series, “It’s Complicated,” Pastor Daniel invites us to live with the kind of love Jesus displayed—a steadfast love marked by humility, trust, transparency, and life-giving words. When we take ownership of displaying this kind of love in our relationships, we’re inviting people to see Jesus through the way we live.

Join us as Pastor Daniel concludes the “Built Different” series and reminds us to train in godliness and faithfully seek God through every season. As we abide in Him, we can rest in the promise that He will produce lasting fruit in His time. Because a fruitful life doesn’t happen overnight—it develops as we stay rooted in God’s Word and connected to Christ, the True Vine.

Is God’s Word shaping your life or just informing it? Scripture is not simply an accessory to our lives; it’s the foundation we build on and the tool God uses to shape us. As Pastor Daniel continues our “Built Different” series, he invites us to place ourselves under the authority of God’s Word, allowing its wisdom to form our hearts and steer our daily choices.

Imagine how our lives could change if we prayed bold prayers! In our new “Built Different” series, Pastor Daniel kicks off the new year by teaching us that prayer isn’t passive. When we draw near to God, our faith grows as we pray promises from His Word, prioritize fasting, and trust God to move powerfully in our everyday lives.
