Transcribe →The Hard Road
Mar 1500:41:17Tap to summarizeEvery journey starts with a decision. And when Jesus set His face toward Jerusalem, He wasn't taking the easy route. He saw every step of what was coming, and He chose to walk it anyway.In this first message of our brand new series ON THE WAY, Pastor Josh unpacks one of the most pivotal moments in the ministry of Jesus. Luke 9:51 tells us He "steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem," knowing full well what awaited Him. No detours. No u-turns. Just a fixed focus on the road ahead.The truth is, human nature pulls us toward comfort over calling, power without sacrifice, and following without real cost. But Jesus modeled something different. He showed us that the most meaningful things in life are rarely found on the easy road.If you've been waiting for a sign to go all in, to settle your direction, choose purpose over comfort, and take your next step of obedience, this message is for you.This series is designed to prepare your heart for what resurrection really means when you've walked the road that leads there.

The Cost Of Every Relationship
Mar 800:39:04Tap to summarizeEvery relationship has a price tag. The question isn't whether you'll pay it. It's whether you'll pay it now or pay it later.In Week 4 of our Let's Talk... series, Pastor Grant gets real about what it actually costs to build relationships that last, and why so many of us are letting the most important connections in our lives slowly fade without even realizing it. From marriage to friendship to your walk with God, no relationship thrives without intentional investment.In this message, you'll discover the three costs every relationship requires:Time because proximity and presence aren't the same thing.Commitment because loyalty isn't a feeling or a post. It's a pattern of behavior proven by action, not words.Courage because faith without courage is really no faith at all.Whatever relationship in your life feels distant right now, this message is for you.

Mar 100:41:39Tap to summarizeConflict is inevitable in every relationship, but it doesn't have to be destructive.

A Plan For Progress
Feb 800:38:48Tap to summarizeGod isn’t just giving you a new word for this year. He is inviting you into a new way of living. In this message, “A New Thing: A New Plan,” we wrap up our A New Thing series across our Baytown, Crosby, and La Porte campuses and lean into this truth: A New Thing requires a New Plan. Most people do not miss their goals because they do not want change. They miss them because they never decide how that change will happen. Good intentions are common. Intentional living is rare. From Isaiah 43, we see that God is already doing a new thing, but we have a part to play. We do not drift into spiritual maturity, financial freedom, or healthy relationships. We train for it. In this message you will learn why God is a planner and why you should be too, the difference between trying and training in your faith, how to name the life you are training for by starting with identity, how to identify the barriers holding you back, and how to choose simple, God-honoring practices in your spiritual, financial, and relational life. If you are tired of trying harder and ready to start training with purpose, this message will help you build a God-centered plan for your next season.
Transcribe →A New Purpose
Feb 100:38:20Tap to summarizeMost people believe their life has a purpose, but very few feel like they are actually living in it. That gap between believing and truly discovering your purpose is where frustration, restlessness, and feeling stuck often live. In this message from the series ☁️ A NEW THING, Pastor Josh shows from God's Word that you are not an accident. You are God’s handiwork, created on purpose and for a purpose. You will learn the difference between your job and your calling, how confusion, comparison, and counterfeit versions of success can distract you, and how God can use your past, your gifts, and divine appointments to point you toward what He made you to do. You will also see the five foundational purposes God has for every believer and how His specific will for your life flows from them. You do not have to guess your way through life. In Christ, you can discover who you are and what you are living for. Lean in, take notes, and invite God to do a new thing in your perspective, your direction, and your purpose.
