The inconvenience of being Chosen | Pastor Alvin III
2w ago00:41:26Tap to summarizeIn this message, Pastor Alvin unpacks the Parable of the Talents and makes one thing clear: what God has given you isn't just for you. His power is His property, and He's entrusted it to us with a real expectation. Not a suggestion. An expectation. And how we steward what He's placed in us has eternal consequences. Drawing from Matthew 25, John 7, and more, Pastor Alvin challenges us to stop waiting for living waters to flow to us and start letting them flow from us. Because that's what true belief looks like. Faith isn't just what keeps us calm under pressure. It's what keeps us moving. And the power of the Holy Spirit is what makes the whole journey possible. So here's the question: Are you a fan of Jesus, or have you walked His path? Scripture references: Matthew 25:14-30 John 15:16 Hosea 4:6 Ezekiel 3:18 John 7:38-39 Matthew 10:16-22 1 Corinthians 14:4 We’d love to hear from you!

Transcribe →Walking in Power | Pastor Alvin III
2w ago00:47:57Tap to summarizeIn this message, Pastor Alvin takes us through Acts 1, Mark 9, 1 Corinthians 2, and Ephesians 3 to show us what it really means to carry God's power. Not just to know about it, but to actually walk in it. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of you. And God's not asking you to sit back and watch what he can do. He's inviting you to be proof that he's still moving. If you've ever wondered why you're not seeing more of God's power in your life, this message is for you.

Transcribe →Pentecost: Power| Pastor Alvin Love III
4w ago00:43:54Tap to summarizePastor Alvin returns this week for an amazing sermon on the purpose of Pentecost… POWER! Once we are saved, the POWER of God is made available to us through the Holy Spirit. But understanding this POWER requires us to know the difference between God's permissive will and Gods perfect will. It also demands that we know it is the will of God that the church has power, and not in theory but in reality. Through this sermon, Pastor Alvin teaches us what it means to have the power of God active in our lives and provides the ABC's of learning to live in the power Jesus made available to us.

Transcribe →Pastor Shannon Smith | I Need The Whole Package
May 2700:37:18Tap to summarizeThis week our guest speaker, Shannon Smith, returns for another timely message titled "I Need the Whole Package," where she speaks about unpacking the birth of the Church and what it means to be baptized in the Holy Spirit, not as an add-on to your faith, but as something God always intended for every believer. Just like Peter, who loved Jesus deeply but still couldn't do what God called him to do in his own strength, we were never meant to build the Kingdom on our own. Shannon reminds us that Jesus didn't call us to be lawyers. He called us to be witnesses. And when you operate under the power of the Holy Spirit, you get supernatural results. Scripture references: Acts 1:1-9 Acts 2:1-8, 14-18, 38-39 1 Corinthians 12:12-14 Ephesians 4:11-12 Galatians 3:3 Matthew 28:19 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

Transcribe →Still Building Guest Pastor Series| Pastor Pablo Martinez
May 1800:39:50Tap to summarizeIn this sermon, guest Pastor Pablo Martinez teaches on the keys to the kingdom, righteousness and surrender. Righteousness is the key to the door of peace while surrender is the key to the door of freedom. Pastor Pablo reminded us that real peace isn't something we manufacture from the outside in. It starts with being right with God. He also gets honest about the difference between being healed and being truly free, and why so many of us are still carrying what God already paid for. Perhaps what you've been waiting for is sitting behind the door of peace or freedom!

Transcribe →Mother's Day | Pastor CeCe
May 1800:32:09Tap to summarize"Just keep on praying, the Lord is nigh. Just keep on praying, He'll hear your cry. The Lord has promised and His word is true. Just keep on praying, He'll answer you." Our Founding Pastor, Pastor CeCe, sang as she encouraged not just mothers, but everyone to pray no matter what. Drawing from Matthew 15, Philippians 4, and more, Pastor CeCe walks us through seven marks of a praying mother and reminds us that prayer isn't a last resort. It's the first response. She challenges us to keep going when God feels silent, to push past opposition, and to worship while we wait. Because silence isn't the end of the story. God is still working. Scripture references: Matthew 15:21-28 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 Matthew 11:28 Psalm 34:17 Luke 18:38-39 Philippians 4:6-7 Genesis 32:26 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

Transcribe →Digging Deeper | Pastor Denise Ray
May 800:42:25Tap to summarizeIn the second part of our Guest Speaker Series, Pastor Denise Ray (Church on the Rock Ministries) joins us to share an essential message: "Digging Deeper." While we may love God, many of us find ourselves striving to increase our faith and clarify our purpose. Pastor Denise teaches that reaching that next level requires us to "break up" the soil of our hearts. Using the imagery of Luke 6:48 and the resilient trees of Jeremiah 17, she illustrates how a deep foundation and even deeper roots allow us to remain fruitful even in times of extreme heat and hardship. Join us as we learn how to cultivate a life that isn't just surviving, but thriving in the presence of God.

Transcribe →From Ashes to Oaks | Pastor Steve Blair
May 600:30:52Tap to summarizeWe are excited to have Pastor Steve Blair with us from Church of the Highlands in our Guest Speaker series teaching on the title, "From Oaks to Ashes". Drawing from Isaiah 61, Pastor Steve reminds us that God doesn't start with broken systems. He starts with broken hearts. Sin robs us. But God restores, and through three divine exchanges, he offers a Crown of Beauty for Ashes, the Oil of Joy for Mourning, and a Garment of Praise for the Spirit of Despair. He doesn't just remove the ashes. He replaces them with dignity. Joy isn't a feeling we wait on. It's a discipline we walk in. And when we make these exchanges, we become what Isaiah calls oaks of righteousness. Rooted. Steady. Rebuilding. Oaks don't just feel different, they live different. Whatever weight you're carrying, this message is for you. Heaven wins, and God wants to make that exchange with you today.

Transcribe →The Eternity Series Pt 2 | Pastor Alvin III
Apr 2900:35:28Tap to summarizeIn this message titled Don’t Underestimate the Process, Pastor Alvin reminds us that following Jesus isn’t just about where we’re going, it’s about how we get there. Through passages like John 10:4-5 and 1 Corinthians 3:10-15, we see that both God and the enemy may point to similar outcomes, but the difference is always in the process. God’s way leads through obedience, humility, and trust. The enemy’s way often shortcuts what God has said, pushing us toward disobedience and immediate gratification. This message challenges us to look deeper than what’s visible. Are we building our lives on what people see, or on what God sees? Because in the end, everything will be tested, and only what’s built on the right foundation will remain. Don’t ignore the process. Don’t harden your heart. What you build today is shaping what lasts forever.

Transcribe →The Eternity Series Pt I | Pastor Alvin III
Apr 2100:39:49Tap to summarizeIn the first installment of the series on eternity, Pastor Alvin walks through the story of the rich man and Lazarus to challenge how we view success, comfort, and eternity. Through this passage, Jesus confronts us with a sobering truth. What we experience now is not the full picture. Life on earth is temporary, but eternity is not. This message challenges us to examine our hearts, stay hungry for what’s beyond this life, and make decisions that last forever. Because what you gain now is not worth losing what God has prepared for later.
