Fountain City Church

Donny (fresh off vacay) and Dave talk about America's birthday, fireworks, and Curt Duncan's message about leading his faith to move to northern Italy as missionaries.

The key scripture, Acts 13:1-12, reveals how the early church operated as a unified body, sending out missionaries under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. This passage reminds us that our calling isn't just individual, but connected to the larger body of Christ. The speaker draws an interesting parallel between a football team's pre-game speech and the church's role in preparing and sending out its...

We're challenged to reframe our perspective on trials and difficulties in our lives. The book of James teaches us to 'count it all joy' when we face various trials, not because the trials themselves are joyful, but because of the spiritual growth they produce. We're reminded that trials are designed to build our faith, create intimacy with God, and increase our dependency on Him. The message empha...

In this episode, Alaina and Chrissy interview Rose Harper about her battle with cancer and what it looks like to trust God in the "every day" of life.

In the latest episode of Monday Morning Faith, Donny & Dave look ahead to where we see the Lord taking us in the coming years as well as walking through what it looks like to love one another through forgiveness.

In this episode of Monday Afternoon Faith, Donny & Dave talk about Donny's early days working alone on campus and the beautiful connection between faith and integrity.

We're challenged to examine the integrity of our words and actions. Jesus confronts the religious leaders' manipulation of oaths, calling us to a higher standard of truthfulness that reflects God's character. The central message reminds us that as followers of Christ, our yes should mean yes and our no should mean no, without the need for elaborate promises or spiritual-sounding language. This tea...

Donny and Dave break down the message from Sunday, June 1st, at Fountain City Church by going over some great feedback, answering questions, sharing encouragement, and pointing to Jesus.

We're challenged to confront the deceptive nature of sin, particularly lust, and its impact on our spiritual lives. Using Jesus' teachings from the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5, we're reminded that sin isn't just about actions, but the condition of our hearts. The message draws a striking parallel between misleading product labels and the false promises of sin, emphasizing how lust advertises...

We're challenged to confront the deceptive nature of sin, particularly lust, and its impact on our spiritual lives. Drawing from Jesus' teachings in Matthew 5:27-30, we're reminded that sin isn't just about outward actions, but the condition of our hearts. The sermon uses vivid analogies, like misleading product labels, to illustrate how sin promises satisfaction but delivers emptiness. We're urge...

We're challenged to embrace the biblical model of spiritual mentorship outlined in Titus 2. The central theme revolves around older women teaching and training younger women in godliness, love, and practical Christian living. This isn't just about age, but about spiritual maturity and the passing down of wisdom. We're reminded that discipleship isn't confined to church walls - it happens in our ho...

This week we dive into our process of picking songs for our weekend worship gathering!

In this surprise episode, Donny & Dave talk through his message on forgiveness and bitterness. Few things turn our lives upside down like forgiving those who have hurt us.

Sadly, this is the last episode of Monday Morning Faith until May 19th... but it's a DOOZY! Donny & Dave talk about Donny's playing style in the NBA, thoughts on Nico, and what it means to abide in Jesus.

The central message revolves around our purpose: to glorify God by bearing spiritual fruit. We're challenged to examine our lives and ask, are we truly abiding in Jesus? The imagery of the vine and branches beautifully illustrates our need for constant connection to Christ. Without Him, we can do nothing of eternal value. But when we remain in Him and His words remain in us, we're promised answere...

In this special post-Easter Tuesday-edition of Monday Morning Faith, Donny & Dave rank the Rocky movies alongside other USA-Russian themed movies and talk about how to walk in a Kingdom-mindset when it comes to the resurrection.

In this Easter message, we're reminded that Jesus is not just the giver of resurrection, but He is the resurrection itself. The story of Lazarus in John 11 beautifully illustrates how God's delays are not denials, but opportunities for greater glory. We're challenged to believe in Jesus' power over death, not just as a historical event, but as a present reality in our lives. The sermon emphasizes...

This is the communion meditation on Luke 23 from our Good Friday Night of Worship on April 18th, 2025.

Are we truly connected to the source of our spiritual life? This powerful message delves into John 15:1-5, where Jesus declares 'I am the true vine.' We're challenged to examine our connection to Christ, the vine, and our role as branches meant to bear fruit. The analogy of a phone that appears plugged in but isn't truly charging serves as a stark reminder of our spiritual lives. Are we merely goi...
