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!
You have work to do, and fear cannot be the reason you don't finish it! For Conference Sunday, Pastor Travis Greene reminded us that God has given you an assignment that requires you to LIVE boldly, DIE to the parts of yourself holding you back, and FINISH what He started in you. Jesus understood the urgency of His purpose, and that same intentionality is required of us today. It's time to stop negotiating with fear, take the risk, and become the person God has called you to be. You weren't created to simply exist—you were created to fulfill your assignment!Because I Have Work to Do, I Must…LIVE: Take the risk that's terrifying.DIE: Stop negotiating with the worst parts of you.FINISH: Who will I be at the end of my life? Be that person today.
