The Simple Way to Reach Your Neighborhood | Pastor Danny Abell
Mar 1600:41:54Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThe Simple Way to Reach Your NeighborhoodSpeaker: Pastor Danny AbellHow do we reach the world with the gospel? Jesus gives us a simple starting point: love God and love your neighbor.In this message, Pastor Danny Abell reminds us that the mission of the gospel doesn’t begin across the ocean — it begins across the street. When believers are present with people, willing to carry burdens, and willing to invite others into authentic community, God uses those relationships to change lives.At Reliant Church we believe that ministry runs on the rails of relationships, and the gospel moves through everyday moments with the people God has placed around us.If the church truly lived out Jesus’ command to love our neighbors, we would see neighborhoods, communities, and cities transformed by the power of the gospel.📲 Stay Connected with Reliant ChurchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasgaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481Website: https://www.reliant.church/📚 BooksThe Potter's Clayhttps://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Unlocking-Gospel-Transformation/dp/1662890389The Potter's Clay Workbookhttps://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Workbook-Unlocking-Transformation/dp/B0FF82S9BF👍 If this message encouraged you, be sure to like, subscribe, and share so more people can hear the gospel.

Mar 200:53:52Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailMore Than a SeatJesus Didn’t Save You to Attend—He Saved You to BelongPastor Bill SizemoreYou weren’t saved to sit in a seat — you were saved to belong to a family.In this powerful message through the Gospel of John 15:12–17, First John 1:1–3, and Acts of the Apostles2:42–47, we see the progression of the Christian life:Servants who obey →Friends who know →Partners in fellowship →A shared life.Jesus moves us from service into friendship, from friendship into fellowship, and from fellowship into a daily shared life with His people.The early church didn’t build attendance — they built community.Small groups are not optional programs. They are the environment where Lordship becomes lived experience.You were made for more than a seat.You were made for a family.📖 Books by Bill SizemoreThe Potter’s ClayAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1662890389Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1143451152The Potter’s Clay WorkbookAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1145678123🔗 Connect with Reliant ChurchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasgaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481Website: https://www.reliant.church/#ChristianPodcast #BiblicalCommunity #SmallGroups #ReliantChurch

Jesus Didn't Die for Spectators | Pastor Joey Smith | Servitude 2026
Feb 2300:48:41Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailJesus Didn’t Die for Spectators | Lordship Is the Turning PointServitude 2026 | Message by Pastor Joey SmithIn this powerful episode from our Servitude 2026 series at Reliant Church, Pastor Joey Smith walks through Acts 9 and the road to Damascus, showing that service doesn’t start with activity—it starts with surrender.Saul was serving—but not Jesus. Passionate. Driven. Confident. But blind. One encounter changed everything:“Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?”When Lordship is established, service follows—because that is the character of Jesus.In this episode, you’ll discover:Why zeal without revelation is dangerousHow brokenness often precedes usefulnessWhy spectators admire Jesus—but servants obey HimHow true freedom is found in surrenderWhy you won’t burn out when Lordship is settledRight vision + Right Lord = Straight directionJesus didn’t endure the cross to create an audience. He died to raise up servants. Step out of the stands, pick up the towel, and follow the Servant King.📚 Recommended Resources by Bill SizemoreThe Potter’s ClayAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1662890389Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/9781662890388The Potter’s Clay WorkbookAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/9781662890395📲 Stay Connected with Reliant ChurchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasgaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481Website: https://www.reliant.church/#Servitude2026 #Lordship #Servanthood #ReliantChurch #FaithInAction

When Servants Get Tired | Pastor BIll Sizemore | Servitude 2026
Feb 1600:50:56Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailWhen Servants Get TiredBill Sizemore | General AdultSeries: Servitude 2026Subtitle: How God Strengthens Those Who Refuse to QuitScripture: Hebrews 12:1–4; John 7:37–38Many believers begin serving the Lord with joy, but over time, exhaustion, discouragement, and spiritual dryness can quietly set in. Burnout was never God’s design for His servants. In this message from Servitude 2026, we look at Epistle to the Hebrews 12:1–4 and Gospel of John 7:37–38 to discover how God strengthens those who refuse to quit.Scripture teaches that when our service is anchored in eternal purpose, fueled by passion for Christ, and sustained by the power of the Holy Spirit, we can endure with strength and joy. We are reminded to lay aside every weight, fix our eyes on Jesus, and draw from the living water He freely provides.God does not merely call us to serve — He supplies what we need to last.If this message encourages you, please like, share, and subscribe so others can grow with us.📚 Grow Deeper in the GospelThe Potter’s ClayAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1662890389Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1144160406The Potter’s Clay WorkbookAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1145714412📲 Stay Connected with Reliant Church:🔗 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/🔗 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasga🔗 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481🌐 Website: https://www.reliant.church/

The God Who Sets the Table | Pastor Bill Sizemore | Servitude 2026
Feb 1100:57:00Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThe God Who Sets the TableBill Sizemore | General AdultMany believers struggle to reconcile God’s absolute authority with His deep humility. Yet from the opening pages of Scripture to the empty tomb, the Bible reveals a consistent and beautiful pattern: God moves first. God prepares first. God gives first. God serves first.Creation itself was a table set for Adam.Canaan was a table set for Israel.The cross is a table set for us.In this message, The God Who Sets the Table, we see that God’s serving heart is not merely meant to comfort us—it commissions us. As dearly loved children, we imitate our Father. We serve because God serves.This sermon challenges us to see servitude not as a burden, but as a reflection of God’s very nature, calling His people to live out the gospel through humble, intentional service.📖 Sermon SeriesServitude 2026Themes: Service · Creation · Salvation · The Promised Land🪑 Opening ReflectionSomething is shifting—not just behavior, but heart.God is changing the way His people see generosity, service, and the needs around them. This message speaks directly to that transformation and invites us to step into it with faith and obedience.📲 Stay Connected with Reliant Church🌐 Website: https://www.reliant.church/📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasga📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481📚 Recommended ReadingThe Potter’s Clay• Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Unlocking-Gospel-Transformation/dp/1662890389• Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1144514156The Potter’s Clay Workbook• Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Workbook-Unlocking-Transformation/dp/B0FF82S9BF• Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1146408031

The Law of Faith | Zoom Church | The Romans Road
Feb 201:49:38Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThe Law of FaithThe Verdict That Changes Everything📖 Romans 3🛣 Series: The Romans Road🎙 Zoom Church | General AdultIn this discussion from The Romans Road series, we explore Romans 3 and the powerful shift from the law that exposes and condemns sin to the law of faith that justifies and frees the believer.God’s law is truthful and holy, yet it often leaves people carrying emotional weight—shame, fear, and a constant sense of never being enough. Paul makes it clear that while the law reveals sin, it cannot heal the soul. But now, God has revealed a righteousness apart from the law, given through faith in Jesus Christ.Justification is not earned through performance—it is a gift of grace. Our guilt is placed on Christ, and His righteousness is credited to us. As shame is silenced and fear gives way to confidence before God, believers are freed to live lives of faith-filled obedience—not to earn God’s approval, but because we already stand justified in Christ.Big Movement:From the law that condemns us → to the law of faith that justifies us📚 Recommended ResourcesThe Potter’s ClayAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Unlocking-Gospel-Transformation/dp/1662890389Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1144487760The Potter’s Clay WorkbookAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Workbook-Unlocking-Transformation/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1144487761📲 Stay Connected with Reliant Church🌐 Website: https://www.reliant.church/📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasga▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481

Reliant Recap | The Mirror of Faith
Jan 2100:13:53Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailReliant Recap – Midweek DiscussionThe Mirror of Faith | When Grace Puts Faith to WorkRomans 2:1–16In this week’s Reliant Recap, we reflect on The Mirror of Faith and the powerful challenge from Romans 2. Paul turns the focus from the brokenness of the world to the condition of the religious heart. It’s possible to recognize sin without repenting of it—and to speak truth without being transformed by it.God’s kindness isn’t meant to excuse sin, but to lead us to repentance. Saving faith doesn’t ignore righteousness; it produces it. The real question isn’t just what we believe—but what our faith is producing.Join us as we discuss:• How judgment can reveal a faith that isn’t working• Why God’s grace is meant to move us, not leave us stagnant• How our deeds reflect our true beliefs• Why our conscience points us toward the crossLet this midweek conversation help you hold up the mirror of God’s Word and walk in a faith that works.🔗 Connect with Reliant ChurchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasgaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481Website: https://reliant.church/📚 Recommended ResourcesThe Potter’s ClayAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Unlocking-Gospel-Transformation/dp/1662890389Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1144735209The Potter’s Clay WorkbookAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Workbook-Transformation-Discipleship/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1147709244🎧 Reliant RecapReal conversations.

Jan 1900:50:46Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailThe Mirror of FaithWhen Grace Puts Faith to WorkRomans 2:1–16 | Pastor Bill Sizemore • The Romans Road SeriesIn The Mirror of Faith, we continue down The Romans Road as Paul turns the lens of God’s Word toward every religious heart. After exposing humanity's debased mind in Romans 1, Paul confronts those who laugh at sin in others while quietly tolerating it in their own lives. This message isn’t about losing salvation — it’s about the real consequences of unrepentant sin. Saving faith doesn’t ignore sin — it puts faith to work through repentance.The defining question:👉 If my faith isn’t at work, am I actually walking in righteousness?📖 Scripture: Romans 2:1–16 (ESV)📍 Series: The Romans Road🔗 Connect with Reliant ChurchInstagram — https://www.instagram.com/reliant_church/Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/reliantchurchdallasgaYouTube — https://www.youtube.com/@reliantchurch-dallasga.6481Website — https://reliant.church/📚 Recommended ResourcesThe Potter’s Clay – Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Unlocking-Gospel-Transformation/dp/1662890389The Potter’s Clay Workbook – Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Potters-Clay-Workbook-Transformation-Discipleship/dp/B0FF82S9BFBarnes & Noble – The Potter’s Clay: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-bill-sizemore/1144735209Barnes & Noble – The Potter’s Clay Workbook: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potters-clay-workbook-bill-sizemore/1147709244🙏 Thank you for watching!If this message ministered to you, like, share, and subscribe to stay connected.Comment below on how God is putting your faith to work!
