Spring training is a season of preparation of what is to come in the future. Many times God has us in a preparation season where He is equipping us and conditioning us for what He has in store for our next season. In order for God to move us from glory to glory, we must first submit our in between seasons to His training.

In a world where storage units are filled to the max, garages are packed with clutter and people crave for more and more stuff, Pastors Tony and Kaci challenge us to strip away unnecessary things that don't bring us joy. It's time for spring cleaning.

Spring and "springtime" refer to the season, and also to ideas of rebirth, rejuvenation, renewal, resurrection and regrowth. We believe that God is wanting to reset us, restore us, and to re-establish his joy in our lives in this spring season. Join us over the next few weeks as we pursue God's best for this next season.

In Matthew 13:1-9, Jesus taught us the different types of hearts that people have. Until you allow the Holy Spirit to cultivate your heart into a place of fertile soil that can produce the Spirit’s fruit in your life, you will never fully walk in His intended purpose and will for your life. It’s from the potter’s wheel that He molds you and shapes you with His word and Spirit until the heartbeat o...

God blesses those whose hearts are pure and there are some characteristics that flow out of pure hearts. Pastor Tony teaches us that the evidence of a pure heart are attributes like grace, faith, hope, truth and love. Want to diagnose where your heart is? Ask yourself if your heart produces any of these.

Pastor Tony helps us all understand that there might be a few character flaws that could cause heart failure in our spiritual walk. But there is still hope in correcting poor spiritual health choices. It's time for us all to become a little more active in our faith exercise. When you're not active in the things of God it's not conducive to a healthy heart.

Pastor Tony teaches us that when we carry the weight of guilt it becomes a repetitive cycle in our lives and when our heart is messed up we have a hard time seeing God. Don't carry the weight of sin that's already been forgiven. Embrace the grace that God has so generously given all of us.

In part 2 of the "Heart Smart" Pastor Tony challenges us to possess characteristics like love, grace, honor, and many others so that we can begin to love smarter with the principles of our God. We cannot go where God is taking you without these characteristics outlined in part 2 of "Heart Smart."

Matthew 5:8 says "God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God." You will never really see who you are until you get a glimpse of who God is. We are either striving to make it or thriving in God's purpose when it comes to our relationships. When your heart is conflicted you will find yourself retreating back to the places you already came from. God has something so much better th...

The more we achieve the less we dream. But when our hope is in God, we can start to dream again. We need to stop focusing on the problem and instead focus on the promise. The Bible tells us that God is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. Never stop believing in the immeasurable power of our God.

Don't let the hurt of a past season rob you of the destiny of your next season. Prayer is the key to welcoming God's Kingdom to be established in your life. Prayer is a conversation, prayer is a weapon, and prayer should be your first response.

God wants to establish the Kingdom of God in your life. What does that mean? It means He wants to establish His rule and reign in your life. This week Pastor Tony shows us that God wants to establish a Kingdom culture, plan, power, and prosperity in our life.

Pastor Tony continues part two of our Kingdom Come series and challenges us with this truth. It's not what's around you, or what your fighting, it's what's in you. The God who lives in you is fighting for you.

When the Kingdom of God shows up, the will of God follows it. Where you are doesn't catch God off guard. Where you are is where God is going to work in your life but the things around you won't change until you change what's in you. If we don't watch what is in you, it will begin to effect what is around you. In this series, Pastor Tony challenges us to seek the Kingdom of God so that His will may...

Pastor Tony Suarez shares with us how prayer has impacted his life this past year in this message titled, "This Time Next Year." Prayer changes things! When you pray you open up a direct communication between you and Heaven. Turn to prayer and watch prayer turn your situation around!

Jesus still invades upside down places. The good news is this, when your lack goes in God's hands, there's always more than enough and when you begin to see beyond the "Now" your future is bright! God came to open your eyes to see is possible but sometimes our limitations become our excuses. Sometimes you have to get louder than the upside down situation in front of you.

Pastor Tony takes on journey with the wise men seeking to find the coming King and on this journey we see how worship is possible in an upside down world. Wise men choose to worship in an upside down situation. Worship always asks one question, "Where is the King?”, worship alters our paradigm and our perspective, worship refuses to let fear control our journey and worship attracts unexpected supe...

For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. As we continue our Upside Down Christmas series, Pastor Tony shows us the true meaning of Wonderful Counselor.

Jesus came to invade ordinary places and upside down situations so that He may bring order and restoration. Mary found herself at the center of a restoration project. An angel pronounced that she had favor with God and Pastor Tony teaches us that one moment of favor can change everything.

Moments, although short periods of time, can leave a significant impact on our hearts and lives. Moments can propel us to the Destiny that we were created for, or it can derail us in a downward spiral. In this message learn how one man’s encounter with Jesus changes everything. Your moment is now.

Praise will adjust your attitude and allow you to see the way God sees. David knew this more than most and because he praised God in the lowest of positions God promoted him to greater places. Let us praise in the valley and praise on top of the mountain. In all things, give thanks for this is the will of God.

David reached in the bag and grabbed a stone for his sling shot to defeat Goliath. An ordinary stone became an extraordinary tool in defeated one of David's greatest opponents. What looks ordinary to others is supernatural when God is in it. When faced with our greatest obstacles, we must have faith and know that God has given us exactly what we need to overcome our giants. IT'S IN THE BAG!

There are 4 types of grace - saving grace, justifying grace, teaching grace and enabling grace. God will remember you. He knows exactly where you're at and where you're going. The ONLY thing God will ever forget is your sins. His grace covers it.

God has given us unlimited favor in the purpose He has called us to. We may face limitations but we can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. We may face external and internal limitations but if He has called us to something then there are no limits to what God can do through us.

We've invited a lot of voices into our life as we live in a social media consumed world and when more and more voices pull for our attention, Jesus' voice seems to get drowned out. Jesus always shows up where He's invited. If you want Him in your home, invite Him. If you want Him in your finances, invite Him. If you want Him in your life, invite Him.
