Transformation Church

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. Scripture References: John 9:1–5 NKJV Luke 4:43 NLT Luke 9:22 NKJV 2 Timothy 1:5–7 NLT

What do you do when God tells you to move, but you can’t see what will happen next? In Week 4 of IT’S TIME, Pastor Charles reminds us that the same God who did miracles for the Israelites at the Jordan River can still do miracles today. We learn the 5 Movements of a Miracle: Start, Step, Stay, Stand, and Stones. God wants us to have faith to take the first step, trust Him while we wait, and keep standing when things get hard. And when God does something amazing in your life, remember it and tell others about what He has done. If God did it before, we can trust that He still has the power to do it again! Scripture References: Joshua 3:15-17 NLT Joshua 4:21-24 NLT 1 Corinthians 15:12-14 NLT Joshua 3:15-16 NLT Joshua 4:1 NLT Joshua 4:3-7 NLT Revelations 1:1 NLT Revelations 1:8 NLT Genesis 8:3 NLT

What if the next move God has for you requires you to leave some things behind? In Week 3 of IT’S TIME, Pastor Michael Todd takes us into Joshua 3, where the Israelites are told to purify themselves because God was preparing to do great wonders among them. Before they could step into a place they had never been before, they had to learn to follow God’s presence and recognize that purity is preparation for God’s power. We may be ready for the promise, but are we ready for the presence? Worry, wounds, idolatry, and wickedness cannot shift with us into what God has next. Don’t try to get into position before you get into His presence. The battle belongs to the Lord, but the bath belongs to you. It’s time to purify. Scripture References: Joshua 3:1-5 NLT Ephesians 4:11 NLT Hebrews 9:4 NLT Numbers 4:15 NLT 1 Corinthians 3:16 NLT Exodus 25:22 NLT 2 Corinthians 13:5 NLT Psalms 51:7 NLT Psalm 24:4-6 NLT

A Shift isn’t just about what you’re shifting out of, it’s also about what God is shifting you into. In Week 2 of It’s Time, Pastor Michael Todd teaches us that every God-ordained shift comes with instructions, and our obedience moves us toward the promise. Through the story of Rahab, we learn that you can have faith even while God is still sanctifying you, and one decision to trust Him can impact your family and change your bloodline. Sometimes a common-sense shift means no longer being loyal to something that clearly isn’t working anymore. God is calling us into covering, connection, and calling as we trust fully, obey boldly, and move faithfully. We’re done standing still, it’s time to SHIFT! Scripture References: James 1:22-25 NLT James 2:26 NLT Joshua 2:1-13 NLT Joshua 2:17-18 NLT Matthew

It’s Homecoming Sunday 2026 and it’s time to shift! In his first message back from sabbatical, Pastor Michael Todd takes us through Joshua 1:1–9 and reminds us that a God ordained shift can happen just like that. From recognizing what God is saying to you privately, to shaking off the venom of offense and unforgiveness, this message challenges us to stop waiting for everyone else to agree with what God has already spoken to us. The next season of your life will require new courage, new obedience, and a willingness to follow God’s instructions because you can’t carry the vision and the venom. This message will cause you to wake up, ask God what needs to shift, and get ready to move! Scripture References: Joshua 1:1-9 NLT

WEEK 7: THE MISSING PEACE // IT WAS ALL A DREAM // PASTOR ROOSEVELT STEWART What if the dream God gave you is actually a memory of your future? In Week 7 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Roosevelt Stewart reminds us that God still speaks through dreams, visions, and His Word. What He shows you may not make sense in the present, but just because you can't see it yet doesn't mean it isn't real. Sometimes God gives you a glimpse of where you're going before He reveals how you're going to get there. The Route to Reality takes you receiving the dream, speaking the dream and living the dream. What was meant for your harm can still work for your good, because nothing and no one can stop what God has spoken. Scripture References: Isaiah 55:11 NKJV Acts 2:15-17 NKJV Genesis 20:3 NKJV Genesis 37:5 NKJV Job 33:14-16 NKJV

What if God is putting you back together, even when you still feel broken? In Week 6 of The Missing Peace sermon series, Pastor Tim Ross takes us into Ezekiel 37 and the valley of dry bones, reminding us that God can bring life to what looks impossible, disconnected, and beyond repair. God told Ezekiel to speak to the bones, and as he partnered with God and repeated what God said, the bones came together exactly where they were supposed to be. You may look pieced together on the outside, but still feel dead on the inside. No matter what your life looks like right now, you can declare: I'm coming back the way God intended me to be. You have indeed been PEACE'D TOGETHER. Scripture References: Ezekiel 37:1-14 TLV

What if what you’re going through was never meant to change what God said about you?In Week 5 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross takes us through the story of Joseph, whose journey from the pit to the palace looked nothing like the dream God gave him. Through betrayal, slavery, false accusations, and being forgotten, Joseph refused to let his circumstances rewrite his identity—because his favor wasn’t in the coat, it was in what God placed inside of him. They tried to bury the dream, but they couldn’t bury what God put in him. We’re going through stuff, but stuff doesn’t have to go through us. You are not what happened to you—you are God’s child, and you’ve got plot armor!. Scripture References: Genesis 45:7 TLV Genesis 45:8 TLV Genesis 50:20 TLV

What if the place you’ve been running from is the very place you’re safe to come home to? In Week 4 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross takes us to one of Jesus’ most powerful stories in Luke 15, the story of the prodigal son. After asking for his inheritance early, leaving home, and spending everything he had, the son found himself broken, empty, and far from where he started. But when he finally decided to go home, he discovered something he never expected: his father had been waiting for him. Once you’re a son, you’re always a son. Once you’re a daughter, you’re always a daughter. Whether you’ve wandered far away or you’ve been close but living like you don't belong, the invitation is the same: Come home. You don't have to clean yourself up first. You don't have to earn your way back. You're safe to come home. Scripture References: Luke 15:11-32 TLV

WEEK 3: THE MISSING PEACE // GOD ALREADY KNOWS // PASTOR BRIE DAVIS What if the peace you've been searching for begins with knowing you've never been overlooked? In Week 3 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Brie Davis walks us through the story of Hagar in Genesis 16, reminding us that even in seasons of rejection, trauma, and uncertainty, God is already pursuing us with His presence. Hagar ran into the wilderness believing she was alone, but God met her there. He knew exactly where to find her. Through Hagar's story, we discover four truths that lead us to lasting peace: God already knows you. God already hears you. God already sees you. And God already loves you. If you've ever felt unseen, unheard, forgotten, or like your story doesn't matter, this message is a reminder that nothing about your life is hidden from God. He knows the full you and He still chooses you. Scripture References: Genesis 16:7-14 NLT Hebrews 4:13 NIV Proverbs 23:26a MSG

What if the greatest miracle you leave with isn't the one you came for? In Week 2 of The Missing Peace, Pastor Tim Ross reminds us through the story of the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5 that Jesus doesn't just want to meet our immediate need,He wants to leave us with something even greater: His peace. Sometimes we're so focused on getting what we came for that we miss what Jesus is trying to give us before we go. This message challenges us to stay hopeful, stop hiding our stories and start sharing our testimonies, because edited testimonies don't help anyone. In the Kingdom of God, you were never meant to be unseen, unheard, or unknown. Before you go, don't just leave with the miracle you were praying for. Leave with the peace, identity, and hope that only Jesus can give. Scripture References: Mark 5:25-34 TLV

WEEK 1: THE MISSING PEACE // WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON? THE FIRST FRACTURE // PASTOR TIM ROSS Why is it so easy to lose our peace? Because the enemy is constantly trying to disconnect us from our Source. In Week 1 of The Missing Peace Sermon Series, Oversight Pastor Tim Ross takes us back to the very beginning to uncover the first fracture that disrupted humanity's peace. Through Genesis 3 and John 14, we discover that the enemy's strategy has never changed: raise a question, create doubt, distort God's Word, and separate us from the peace only Jesus can give. This message exposes how shame, fear, and false narratives keep us hiding from God instead of running to Him. When God asked Adam, "Where are you?" and "Who told you?" He wasn't seeking information, He was inviting humanity back into relationship. The same invitation is available to us today.If you've been battling anxiety, shame, confusion, or wondering why peace feels so difficult to hold onto, this message will help you identify what's really going on…

What story have you been telling yourself about your life?In Week 5 of FEAR-LESS, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches us that while God is the Author of our story, we have a choice about who we allow to narrate it. Fear will use insecurity, failure, inadequacy, loss, trauma, and disappointment to distort our perspective and convince us that the hardest chapters of our lives are the whole story. But fear doesn’t get the final word. This message will teach you the steps to learn how to take your story back and rewrite it. It’s time to stop letting fear tell your story. Take your story back and trust the Author who knows how it ends. Text NEWS to 828282 to join the newsletter and receive the Four Fears graphic wheel. Scripture References: 2 Timothy 1:1-12 NLT

WEEK 4: FEAR-LESS //I WAS RIGHT // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF What if one of the greatest fears we face isn't being wrong, but not being recognized as right? In Week 4 of Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf exposed how fear can drive us to defend our opinions, prove our point, and prioritize winning over loving people. While truth matters, how we carry it matters just as much. This message reminds us that being right is never a license to dehumanize others. In fact, one of the greatest tests of maturity is how we treat people when we know we're right. Scripture References: John 8:1-11 NLT Jeremiah 17:13 NIV John 3:16-17 NIV Luke 23:37-39 NLT Luke 23:44-45 NLT

Have you ever been so certain about someone, your future, or a situation... only to realize you were wrong? In Week 3 of Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf shows us how fear doesn't just make us anxious, it convinces us that our assumptions are facts. Through the story of Joseph, we discover that fear can distort the way we see people, our path, and perspective. Instead of trusting God's process, fear tempts us to create stories, cling to control, and believe that our circumstances define our future. But what if the very thing you thought was working against you was actually preparing you for God's greater plan? If you've been questioning people, frustrated by the path God has you on, or struggling to trust His perspective over your own, this message will encourage you to surrender your certainty, embrace God's process, and discover that sometimes the greatest breakthrough begins with saying, "I was wrong." Scripture Reference: Genesis 50:14-20 NLT Genesis 37:5-11 NLT Genesis 37:18-20 NLT Genesis 45:1-3 NLT…

Anxiety is everywhere. But what if anxiety isn't the real problem? What if it's simply revealing something deeper? In Week 2 of Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to stop running from the smoke and start investigating the fire. This message reveals that beneath an anxious spirit is often a divided heart that is wrestling with who or what it truly trusts. Instead of fighting symptoms, we're invited to follow the smoke, identify the source, and allow God to heal the deeper fears driving our anxiety. When we stop ducking the smoke and bring our fears into the presence of God, we discover that He is greater than every threat, every uncertainty, and every "what if." If you've been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or consumed by fear, this message will help you move from reacting to the smoke to confronting the fire and trusting the God who never leaves you alone in the fight. Scripture Reference: Psalm 3:1-8 NLT Matthew 6:25-34 NLT Philippians 4:6-7 NLT

Fear has a way of convincing us to play small, hide our true selves, and settle for less than what God created us to do. In Week 1 of our new sermon series, Fear-Less, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to confront the fears that silently shape our lives. We uncovered four common fears that affect us all: the fear of man, the fear of loss, the fear of failure, and the fear of inadequacy. But God's plan isn't simply to remove those fears; it's to replace them with a holy fear. When our God-awareness becomes greater than our self-awareness, fear loses its power and faith begins to lead. For the duration of this series and beyond, may we become less aware of ourselves and more aware of God. Scripture Reference: Psalm 56:1-4 NLT Genesis 3:8-10 NLT Psalms 27:1 NLT

God's invitation is simple: Come to Him. The question is, will you receive His rest? In Week 6 of Six Figures, Pastor Michael Todd reveals that rest isn't a luxury reserved for the successful, it's a necessity designed by God for every believer. Through Scripture, we discover that Sabbath is more than taking a day off; it's an act of faith, a weapon against exhaustion, and a reminder that our worth is rooted in who we are, not what we produce. If you've been carrying heavy burdens, feeling overwhelmed, or simply running on empty, this message is a timely reminder that Jesus is still offering rest for your soul. Scripture References: Matthew 11:28-30 NLT Genesis 2:1-3 NLT Exodus 5:7-9 Matthew 3:17J ames 4:6-7 NLT Exodus 20:10 NLT Exodus 23:10-11 NLT Hebrews 4:9-11 NIV

In Week 4 of Six Figures, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to examine whether God truly has first priority in our lives. This message reminds us that honoring God with our increase is about obedience, trust, and recognizing that everything we have comes from Him. We learn that tithing is biblical, generosity is recorded in heaven, and God only asks us to return a portion of what He has already given us. Pastor Mike also warns us not to let greed, culture, or the mistakes of others cause us to abandon God’s principles. Instead, we are called to prioritize obedience and build a legacy of generational blessing. This message will challenge you to reset your perspective and remember that God, not your job, is your source. Scripture References: Proverbs 11:24-25 MSG Malachi 3:10 NIV Leviticus 27:30 NKJV Matthew 23:23 NKJV Hebrews 7:8 NKJV Genesis 4:3-4 NLV Exodus 13:14-15 NIV

God never intended for us to simply survive, He desires us to live an abundant life. In Week 3 of Six Figures, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that generosity is bigger than money… it’s a matter of the heart. We discover that greed, grief, and having the wrong grip on our possessions can quietly attack the condition of our hearts and keep us from experiencing the fullness God promised us. But the cure is found in generosity, gratitude, and grace.This message will challenge you to examine what you’re holding onto, what’s holding onto you, and how God wants to heal your heart from the inside out. Scripture References: John 10:10 NKJV Matthew 7:1-2 NIV Luke 6:37-38 NIV Matthew 6:21 NIV Proverbs 4:23 NIV Luke 12:15 NLT Deuteronomy 15:7-9 NKJV Psalms 139:23-24 NIV Mark 10:20-27 NLT Deuteronomy 15:10 NKJV

What happens when you’re full of faith but empty in discipline? On Day 2 of Gapstanders Conference 2026, Pastor Michael Todd delivers a sobering and transformational message, “Too Far on One Side,” reminding us that it takes more than prayer and it takes more than a plan. God never called us to choose between faith and work, spiritual power and practical obedience because the miracle is found in the middle. This message exposes the danger of being spiritually thriving while personally impoverished, challenging us to align our inner devotion with outward discipline. If you’ve been praying for breakthrough while avoiding the work attached to it, this message will challenge, convict, and equip you to move with both faith and action.

What if we told you that your job and your work may not be the same? In Week 2 of the Six Figures series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges the way we think about work, money, and purpose. Your job is what you do for pay, but your work is what you do for purpose and the two aren’t always the same. This message reminds us that our faith and our work are deeply connected, and both are meant to please God. You don’t have to wait for a perfect opportunity to walk in purpose, you can start right where you are. Not only will this message give you permission to prosper and produce, it will show you how to worship God through your work. Scripture References: John 10:10 NKJV Matthew 9:36-38 NLT Genesis 2:15 NIV Genesis 2:19-20 NIV Colossians 3:23 ESV Proverbs 16:3 ESV 1 Corinthians 10:31 ESV Proverbs 18:9 ESV Revelation 20:12 NKJV 2 Thessalonians 3:10 NLT Genesis 3:17-19 NLT Colossians 3:23-24 NLT

Everybody wants six figures… but what if we’ve misunderstood what that actually means?In Week 1 of the Six Figures series, we address prosperity, one of the most misunderstood words in culture and Christianity. Pastor Michael Todd breaks down the Word to show us that prosperity is Biblical. God wants us to live an abundant, prosperous life which includes our relationships, our soul, our purpose and yours, our resources. The problem isn’t prosperity, it’s our perception of it. This message will help you reorder your life the right way: love God, love people, and use money. Scripture References: John 10:10 NKJV Ephesians 2:10 NLT Deuteronomy 28:11-13 NIV Proverbs 11:25 NIV 3 John 1:2 NKJV

Most of us believe God has more for us, but are we actually living it? In this message, Better Than Dreaming, Pastor Charles Metcalf unpacks the tension between the life we hope for and the life we’re actually experiencing. In John 10:10, Jesus makes it clear: the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but He came so we could have a full, abundant life. The question is… do you have it? This message challenges us to move beyond just accepting grace and start acting on it. The life you’ve been praying for is often found in the action you’ve been avoiding.If you’re ready to stop just hearing the Word and start living it, this message will show you how acting on grace works in you, on you, and through you, so you can experience a life that’s truly better than dreaming. Scripture References: John 10:10 NIV John 10:10 MSG James 1:22-25 MSG

No matter what you are going through, darkness has a deadline. In this powerful Easter Sunday message, Pastor Michael reminded us that the resurrection on Sunday does not erase the reality of Friday and Saturday. Many of us know what it feels like to live in the tension of grief, disappointment, loneliness, addiction, fear, anxiety, or waiting for God to move. But even when it feels dark, the SON is always shining. If you have been carrying pain, wrestling with purpose, facing loss, or wondering when your breakthrough will come, this message is for you. No matter how long it has been. No matter how dark it has been. No matter how impossible it feels. CLOCK IT. Darkness has a deadline. Here comes the Son. Scripture References Luke 24:1-6 NLT Hebrews 4:15 NIV Luke 23:44-46 NLT 2 Corinthians 5:21 ESV John 8:12 NLT Lamentations 3:22-23 ESV Psalms 30:5 NKJV Ephesians 5:8 NLT John 3:16 NIV

God desires for you to prosper in your soul, your mind, will, and emotions, but sometimes footholds and strongholds keep us from moving forward. In Week 7 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd exposes how the enemy tries to gain a strategic position in our lives through soul ties. But we are reminded us of the truth in James 4:7 to resist the devil, and he will flee. This message breaks down the different types of soul ties including initial, influential, idol, and illegitimate intimacy ties, and reveals how they can keep you bound if left unaddressed. But the good news is this, the blood of Jesus is greater than any bond formed in sin. If you are ready to break free, this message will show you how to identify and actively break soul ties so you can walk in true freedom in Christ. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV Ephesians 4:18-27 MSG James 4:7 NIV 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 NIV Proverbs 18:21 NKJV 2 Corinthians 4:2 ESV James 5:16 ESV Psalms 23:1-3 NKJV

Sex is a topic that impacts everyone and culture doesn’t own it because God made it. In Week 6 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Charles Metcalf reminds us that one of our first commands was to be fruitful and multiply. God also created a standard for how it’s meant to be experienced. God is not anti-sex, He’s anti-sin. When we miss His design, it impacts our soul, our relationships, and our future. Through both biblical truth and practical insight, Pastor Charles shows how sex was designed to bond, not break, and why misusing it can lead to disconnection, numbness, and confusion. In this message you’ll understand three goals of godly sex: purity, serving, and sacredness. Whether you’re single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to honor God with your body and align your life with His original design. Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 6:12–13, 19–20 NLT Genesis 1:3 NLT 1 Peter 1:16 NLT 1 Corinthians 5:12–20 NLT Proverbs 6:32 NLT

Culture may try to convince us that it’s better to be alone, but the truth is marriage is still winning. The real question is: are you ready for it? In Week 5 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that marriage works 100% of the time when we do it God’s way. While culture often teaches that it’s better to marry than to burn with lust, Pastor Mike challenges us to pursue the greater option - developing self-control and surrendering our lives fully to God.This message reminds wives that they are anointed for their husbands and encourages men to provide safety, leadership, and covering for their wives. Whether you are single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to prepare your heart, build godly character, and become the person God is calling you to be before stepping into the covenant of marriage. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV Proverbs 18:22 NKJV Proverbs 31:10 NIV Hebrews 13:4 NIV 1 Corinthians 7:6-9 NLT Ephesians 5:1-2 NLT Ephesians 5:22-33 NLT Ephesians…

This message is for anyone preparing for promise after pain. In Week 4 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that restoration is possible after any level of devastation, destruction, death, divorce, or disappointment. Looking at the story of Ruth, we see how she unexpectedly became a second-time single, yet God redeemed her story and restored her legacy through her relationship with Boaz. If you’ve experienced heartbreak or loss, this message will encourage you to trust God again, make faith-filled decisions, and move forward beyond disappointment. We pray it empowers you to let God take the broken pieces of your story and restore them into something greater than you imagined. Scripture References: Ruth 1:1–5 NLT Ruth 1:9–11,16 NLT Proverbs 3:5–6 NLT Ruth 1:20–21 NLT Ruth 2:1–3 NLT Proverbs 31:27 NIV Ruth 2:11–12 NLT Ruth 3:1–6 NLT Joel 2:25 ESVMatthew 1:5 NLT

Culture has sold us a counterfeit version of love that feels exhilarating, euphoric, and full of uninterrupted bliss, pleasure and enjoyment. It’s like everyone wants to be “drunk in love.” But in Week 2 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that no one makes wise decisions while intoxicated. Using a powerful illustration with drunk goggles, Pastor Mike shows how being drunk in your soul can distort your walk, your choices, and your relationships. Rooted in 1 Thessalonians 5:5–8, this message calls us to be sober in our soul so we can build relationships with clarity and wisdom. You’ll discover the four things a healthy soul must believe and gain revelation on how to build relationships that are strong, stable, and God-centered moving forward. Scripture References 3 John 1:2 NKJV 1 Thessalonians 5:5-8 NIV

This series has the power to change every relationship you’ve had, have now, and will ever have. In Week 1 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that the goal isn’t just chemistry—it’s healthy relationships, and healthy relationships start with healthy people. Pastor Mike unpacks the four foundational needs we all carry: to be seen, soothed, secure, and safe, and challenges us to examine our soul health. God is your soulmate—your spouse is your soul match. When you stop expecting people to fill a place only God can occupy, you make room for relationships that are whole, healed, and built to last. Culture has a lot to say about love, but this series injects God’s perspective into what culture lacks wisdom on. This message challenges us to ask the hard questions: Is your soul healthy? Are your thoughts healthy when no one else is around? Would you marry you? We pray this message and series gives you the clarity and confidence that you need to win in relationships! Scripture…

What does it look like to move forward with a solid foundation? In Week 4 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us to build for the future by establishing clear standards rooted in Christ. He reminds us that sight without standards leads to self-sabotage and that going forward without the right foundation is foolish. Pastor Michael unpacks why God’s Word is the only standard that remains steady in every season and introduces The Great 8, our church’s Culture Code, as the values shaping who we are and how we build. From Crazy Faith and Generosity to Worship and Fun this message calls us to live out our faith with intention, integrity, and impact. If you’re ready to stop drifting, start building wisely, and move forward with purpose, this word will help you lay the right foundation for what God is doing next. 📲 Want to be A P.A.R.T. of what God is doing here at Transformation?

What God has done is nothing compared to what He is about to do. As we move forward, we can’t stay stuck in what God already delivered us from. In Week 3 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd reveals that being delivered from something is not the same as being delivered into the promise. This message challenges us to examine where we may still be holding on to our past instead of fully walking in what God promised. We pray this word breaks false thought patterns and helps you embrace the standard God has given to guide your life forward. Scripture References Philippians 3:12-14 NLT Isaiah 43:15-19 NLT Romans 12:2 AMP Isaiah 40:8 ESV

Is your past holding you back from moving forward? In Week 2 of the FORWARD Sermon Series, Pastor Charles Metcalf teaches us that the prerequisite for moving forward is learning how to properly place our past. Whether your past feels like a trophy you don’t want to let go of, a trap you keep returning to, or a tragedy marked by pain, shame, or grief, God is calling you forward. If you’ve been struggling with the grips of your past, this message will teach you how to remember differently, redeem what was meant to take you out, and represent God’s faithfulness through your testimony. It’s time to press forward into everything God has prepared for you. Scripture References Philippians 3:1–4 NLT Philippians 3:13–14 NLT Genesis 12:1–5 NLT Mark 10:17–22 NLT Colossians 1:13–14 NLT Revelation 12:11 NLT

What if you couldn’t skip the hard parts, but you could move through them faster? On Week 1 of the Forward Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us to stop avoiding what God is using and learn how to FAST FORWARD into the future He’s prepared for us. Forward doesn’t go around opposition, it goes through it. In this message, we learn how fasting helps us move faster through discomfort, distraction, and disappointment by choosing surrender, obedience, and the courage to D.A.R.E. again. As we reset, God is calling us to release fear, pick up faith, and move forward faster. Scripture References: Philippians 3:13-14 NLT Psalm 119:105 NKJV Matthew 10:14 NIV 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV Nehemiah 6:3 NLT

VISION SUNDAY // VISION IS MOST VALUABLE // PASTOR MICHAEL TODD Do you have a clear vision of who God has called you to be? Scripture tells us that without vision, people perish but with vision, we gain clarity and can run forward with purpose. On Vision Sunday, Pastor Michael Todd shared four powerful truths about vision and revealed our Word of the Year: FORWARD. Vision needs a vessel, vision must be visible, vision must be vast, and vision must have a vehicle. One of the most spiritual things you can do this year is take time to write the vision God has given you. As we move forward, we’re choosing to release the past and step into the future with hope and faith for all God has ahead.

RESET SUNDAY // I WANT TO PRAY MORE , LIKE JESUS // PASTOR CHARLES METCALF As the new year begins, many of us set New Year resolutions in hopes of building better, healthier habits. Yet only 8–9% of people actually stick with their resolutions for the entire year. So what keeps us from reaching our goals? On Reset Sunday, Pastor Charles Metcalf reveals that lasting change doesn’t come from willpower or behavior modification; it comes through prayer. This year, we’re not interested in praying wordy, empty prayers. Our goal is to pray like Jesus.As we prepare for 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting (January 5–25), this message will teach you how to develop a prayer life that doesn’t just change your habits, but transforms you from the inside out. To learn more about 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, text FASTING to 828282 or visit transformchurch.us/21-days-of-prayer-fasting.

Christmas at TC

In a season where finances can feel uncertain and giving can feel triggering, this message invites us to see that Crazy Faith isn’t measured by what we give, but by how we obey. Crazy faith will always be defined by obedience and not amounts. In Week 13 of the Triggered Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd outlines the 4 things God values more than money. God values heart posture, sacrifice, memory, and eternity more than dollars and cents. From the woman with the alabaster jar to the widow’s two mites, we’re reminded that generosity is rooted in trust in God. This message challenges us to give not out of pressure, but from remembering what God has done, who He’s been, and where He’s taking us. If you want to give in crazy faith, visit https://transformchurch.us/crazy-faith-offering or text CRAZY FAITH to 828282.

Whatever fills you is what spills out of you. This includes fear, foolishness, faith and so much more. In Week 11 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Michael Todd challenges us with one question: What comes out of you when life squeezes you? Triggers don’t create your reaction; they reveal your internal ammunition. And if we want a different outcome, we have to be filled with something different. This message will teach you how to believe what others don’t, protect the seed of your belief, and believe longer, not just stronger. We pray you get full of faith so that when life squeezes you, what comes out looks like God, not your fears. Scripture References: Hebrews 11:1 NLT 2 Corinthians 5:7 ESV Numbers 13:25-33 NLT

WEEK 11: TRIGGERED // TRAIN YOUR TRIGGERS: WITHHOLDING NOTHING // PASTOR MICHAEL TODD Someone is waiting for you to stop withholding what God has given you! When you live triggered you will withhold your faith, your forgiveness, your finances, your love and more. In Week 11 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Michael Todd teaches us how to trade our triggers for triumphant faith. This message will show us how to take inventory of what we have, find inspiration, interrupt the cycle and invest in the future. Scripture References: Ecclesiates 11:4-6 NLT James 2:17 NLT Genesis 37-45

We exist to re-present God to the lost & found for transformation in Christ.

WEEK 9: TRIGGERED // ANGER DANGER: WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW IS HURTING YOU // PASTOR TIM ROSS The anger you refuse to deal with will become the crash-out you never saw coming. Anger isn’t the issue, unprocessed anger is. In Week 9 of our Triggered Series, Pastor Tim Ross helps us understand what anger really is, why God designed it, and how it can turn dangerous when we don’t deal with it honestly. Whether you’re someone who explodes like Moses or implodes like the older brother, this message shows you how anger shows up in your body, what it’s trying to tell you, and how Jesus models a healthy way to express it. You don’t have to let anger rewrite your story. If you’re ready to name it, process it, and let Jesus lead you through it, this message will help you deal with your anger before your anger deals with you. Scripture References: Ephesians 4:26-27 TLV Numbers 20:7-12 TLV Luke 15:25-30 TLV Matthew 21:12-13 TLV

WEEK 8: TRIGGERED // COPE LIKE CHRIST // PASTOR BRIE DAVIS At the root of every crash out is a coping mechanism we created to survive. And when we are triggered, it isn’t random, it’s an invitation from God to reveal where He wants to transform us. In Week 8 of the Triggered Series, Pastor Brie teaches us how to shift from Crash Out Coping to Christ-like Coping. This message helps us learn how to choose community over conflict, obedience over oppression, prayer over powering through, and empowerment over externalizing. When the triggers hit (and they will) — you don’t have to cope like culture… you can cope like Christ, even in the crash out.
