Beyond Sunday

Send us Fan Mail He overdosed at 16, watched addiction shape his childhood, and carried a kind of shame that’s hard to explain unless you’ve lived it. Nick Newcomb joins us on Beyond Sunday to share a testimony that starts with constant moving, drugs and alcohol on the table. We talk honestly about what it feels like to realize your “normal” isn’t normal, how substance use escalates from weed and...

Send us Fan Mail Your calendar can be full and your soul can still be unprepared. We sit down as a family around Titus 3 and let Scripture confront the places where Christian maturity gets tested the most: authority, speech, and the everyday choice to serve. I’m Pastor Lee Day, joined by my wife Erica Day and my mom Sheila, and we take Paul’s command seriously, to be ready for every good work, not...

Send us Fan Mail Your ministry does not start when you walk into a church building and it definitely does not end when you walk back out. We open Acts 6 and follow the early church as it grows so quickly that real people get overlooked, then we watch how wise delegation protects the mission without treating service like “less than.” Stephen is chosen to handle a practical need, yet Acts 6:8 says h...

Send us Fan Mail Silence is expensive, especially when it costs the next generation their chance to hear what God is really like. We open with Psalm 100 and let it set the posture: joyful worship, gratitude, and a steady confidence that the Lord is good and faithful to all generations. From there, we lean into a direct question: if God’s faithfulness lasts, what are we doing to make sure our kids,...

Send us Fan Mail A packed church means nothing if we miss the real assignment Jesus gives us. We’re opening Luke 14 and sitting with the parable of the great banquet, where invited guests make excuses and the master’s command cuts through the noise: go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. We talk plainly about evangelism, gospel urgency, and wha...

Send us Fan Mail A valley full of bones sounds like the end of the story, but Ezekiel 37 starts with a question that still hits home: “Can these bones live?” We go line by line through the Valley of Dry Bones and talk about what it means when life feels drained, faith feels quiet, and your hope feels cut off. If you’ve been sensing spiritual warfare, pressure, or that heavy feeling you can’t quite...

Send us Fan Mail Losing a battle can make you ask the right question and still make the wrong move. We open 1 Samuel 4 with Israel stunned by defeat, and we slow down on the moment that exposes the real issue: they recognize God’s hand is not with them, but instead of repentance and patience, they reach for a shortcut. We talk about what it looks like to “play church” and why it never delivers rea...

Send us Fan Mail Comfort can be the most dangerous season of your faith, not because God is distant, but because we start drifting without noticing. We’re talking about the warning signs of spiritual complacency and why “don’t get comfortable” is not a catchy phrase, it’s a lifeline for anyone who wants to stay awake, clean-hearted, and faithful. We open Joshua 23 and sit with Joshua’s final messa...

Send us Fan Mail A giant doesn’t just show up to fight you, it shows up to talk you into fear. We walk through 1 Samuel 17 and get painfully practical about the “Goliaths” we face today: addiction, anxiety, shame, broken habits, spiritual attacks, and the quiet lies that say you’re not enough. When Israel keeps staring at the size of the problem, they forget the size of their God, and they start r...

Send us Fan Mail A lot of men carry the same fear in silence: “I’m the only one struggling.” Ground Zero exists to prove that lie wrong. We gathered around the table with four leaders from Christ Family Outreach Church in Amelia, Virginia to talk about what happens when men show up hungry, put down the mask, and choose brotherhood. We dig into why a monthly men’s meeting can become a catalyst for...

Send us Fan Mail You can’t live on “I don’t know” forever. Pastor Lee Day sits down again with CFO Church men’s leader Frankie Brown for part two, and we land on a hard but freeing line from Joshua 24: choose this day whom you will serve. Not next week. Not after things calm down. Right now. We talk honestly about why a culture full of options can still produce people who feel stuck, lukewarm, and...

Send us Fan Mail Comfort doesn’t always mean you’re safe, sometimes it means you’re drifting. Pastor Lee Day sits down with men’s leader Frankie Brown to open Jeremiah 2 and ask a question God still asks today: what did you find in Him that made you walk away? We talk honestly about how “following what is worthless makes us worthless” in the sense that our attachments shape our fruit, our focus, a...

Send us Fan Mail How close to God do you actually want to be? That question sits at the center of this message as we open Psalm 105:1–4 and slow down on two repeated commands that can reshape a daily walk with Jesus: seek the Lord and His strength, and seek His presence continually. We talk plainly about what “diligently seek God” looks like when it moves from church language to real habits like w...

Send us Fan Mail One question can expose a divided heart: who will you serve right now? We open 1 Kings 18 at Mount Carmel where Elijah confronts a nation stuck between the Lord and Baal, and we let that same challenge land in our modern lives. When pressure hits, comfort calls, and culture makes idols feel normal, a halfhearted faith starts to limp. We talk plainly about how anything can become a...

Send us Fan Mail Fear, suffering, anxiety, temptation, and spiritual pressure are real and they don’t politely wait for Sunday to pass. We lean into a simple but demanding posture that helps us stand firm when life gets loud: BOW. It’s an acronym we keep coming back to because it works in the middle of the struggle, not just after the victory: Believe, Obey, Worship. We start in 1 Peter 5:6-11, wh...

Send us Fan Mail Everything can look “normal” on the outside while your heart is carrying fear, shame, or the quiet thought that you’ve gone too far to change. I open Luke 2 and make one clear claim that cuts through all of that: because Jesus came, everything changed and that includes you and me. We start at the manger and the angel’s announcement of “good news of great joy” for all people. That...

Send us Fan Mail Ever notice how fear tries to set the rules? We take you straight to the front line where strategy decides outcomes long before the first swing. Pastor Lee unpacks a practical, Scripture-rooted battle plan built on prayer, worship, the Word of God, and the full armor described in Ephesians 6—so you stop reacting to pressure and start standing with purpose. We trace the standoff in...

Send us Fan Mail What if the strongest move you can make today is to let go? We walk through Matthew 15:29–31 and watch the crowds bring the lame, the blind, the crippled, and the mute to Jesus—and we see what happens when needs meet His feet. The scene is not sanitized or safe. It’s raw humanity colliding with divine mercy, and it challenges our instinct to tidy our lives before we ask for help....

Send us Fan Mail Feel like you did the right things and still got hit hard? We walk through 2 Chronicles 32 and watch Hezekiah face a brutal Assyrian siege right after a season of faithfulness. The story resets our expectations about trials and shows how real hope is built: prepare with wisdom, pray with honesty, and trust God for what your strength can’t touch. We start with the myth that obedien...

Send us Fan Mail What if “ready” isn’t a feeling you chase but a fact you live from? We open Scripture to Mark 6, Matthew 28, Luke 9, and Matthew 17 to show why Jesus’ authority changes how we move through the world—lighter, bolder, and filled with purpose. The twelve were sent with almost nothing but returned with stories of healing and deliverance. That same pattern holds for us today: travel li...

Send us Fan Mail What if the one thing you can’t fix is the very thing God is using to set you free? We walk through Naaman’s story in 2 Kings 5 and uncover how a celebrated commander with a hidden wound meets a simple, humbling command—and finds more than a cure. From the first moments, we center on Hebrews 4:12 and the living power of Scripture to expose motives, comfort anxious hearts, and resh...

Send us Fan Mail What if the God who spoke light from nothing is ready to speak into your life today? We open Scripture at Genesis 1 and trace that first dawn to the light Christ brings into ordinary lives, making a bold claim: God does not need your “ingredients” to begin a new work. When the Spirit hovered over the deep, order and life followed; when the Spirit moves in us, hope and power rise w...
