Occ Messages (audio)

When you remember what God has done it brings you to a place of Worship…

Don’t try to muster passion... Start seeking to worship Jesus.

If we really believe this Kingdom has come and is coming, what's holding us back from living as though it’s already here?

Everyday, pray the prayer Jesus taught: Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done. On Earth, as it is in heaven.

Where most people just see trash-strewn fields, so many have found a treasure…

We think we belong here, but we don’t... We belong to another kingdom, and our hearts will clamor for home until we find our home in God.

Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s beneficial. Just because something is illegal doesn’t mean there are no good benefits, or situations when it’s useful, helpful, preferred.

Part of God’s perfection plan is somehow to glorify our hormones, our chemistry and biology, our desires, and our relationships. That’s heaven.

Before marriage, we're told to be promiscuous and sexually adventurous... But after we're married we're told to yawn, and begin to look around… Why is God’s idea of sex so boring?

Jesus is narrow in this sense: There is literally no one, anywhere, ever, who He has not loved, embraced, and invited into the fullest life.

Imagine in our spiritual lives that we have two wings: One is called discipline and the other dependence. We need both to fly.

God has transformed you to fly… Don’t waste your time walking.

The more you know Jesus, the more you understand how much he loves you, how good the life he has for you is, how amazing it is to live forgiven, and to walk in his light…

If you’re going to speak in terms of limitations... Speak in terms of God's (lack of) limitations.

Are we willing to allow God to sculpt our dreams?

Each one of us has disappointment, no matter where we are in our story, and our dream hasn't been fully realized.

Having a dream for your life is not only universal and intergenerational... It’s biblical.

Jonah forgot he had received an incredible amount of grace. Then he forgot to give it. Don't forget... Don't forget...

Don't underestimate the power of a second chance.

The truth is we're all in Jonah's shoes... Meaning we're all a couple of bad decisions away from a whale colon.
