God, Just Tell Me part 2

Stop Overcomplicating God’s Will

November 23, 2025 

We OVERCOMPLICATE God’s will and UNDERESTIMATE God’s goodness. 

God’s will is more about a “WHO” than a “DO.” 

“So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.” Matthew 6:34 NLT 

Focus on today not so much on tomorrow! 

Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make

… When they arrived at the Jordan, [the prophets] began cutting down trees. 5But as one of them was cutting a tree, his ax head fell into the river. “Oh, sir!” he cried. “It was a borrowed ax!” 6“Where did it fall?” the man of God asked. When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it into the water at that spot. Then the ax head

One day the widow of a member of the group of prophets came to Elisha and cried out, “My husband who served you is dead, and you know how he feared the Lord. But now a creditor has come, threatening to take my two sons as slaves.” 2 Kings 4:1 NLT

Your greatest NEED becomes a GIFT when it drives you to DEPEND on God. 

So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah and the king of Edom. After a roundabout march of seven days, the army had no more water for themselves or for the animals with them. 10“What!” exclaimed the king of Israel. “Has the Lord called us three kings together only to deliver us into the hands of Moab?”  2 Kings 3:9-10 NIV

Playing It Safe Is Holding You Back

October 19, 2025    Pastor Sam Goins

God has a mantle with your name on it, and a calling bigger than the field you’re standing in.

So Elijah went and found Elisha son of Shaphat plowing a field. There were twelve teams of oxen in the field, and Elisha was plowing with the twelfth team. Elijah went over to [Elisha] and threw his cloak across his shoulders and then walked away.   1 Kings 19:19 NLT

WE ARE NOT JUST A CHRISTIAN HOME.

TODAY’S KEY THOUGHT

IF YOU ARE A CHRIST-CENTERED FAMILY, YOU WILL BE PERSECUTED.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in

September 28, 2025   Pastor Sam Goins

Blessed are the peacemakers, 

for they will be called children of God.

Without Christ there is no such thing as a PURE heart. 

The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? “I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind… Jeremiah 17:9-10

“Every boy, in his journey to become a man, takes an arrow in the center of his heart, in the place of his strength. Because the wound is rarely discussed and even more rarely healed, every man carries a wound. And the wound is nearly always given by his father.” —John Eldredge, Wild at Heart
