Fountain City Church

This week on Monday Morning Faith, Donny and Dave talk about Jesus being in every area of our life and choosing to walk the narrow path.

We're presented with one of the most sobering truths in all of Scripture: there are only two paths in life, and every single one of us is walking on one of them right now. Drawing from Matthew 7:13-20, we explore Jesus's teaching about the narrow gate and the wide gate—two roads with vastly different destinations. The narrow way requires us to drop our baggage of pride, self-righteousness, and sin...

On this chilly Monday morning, Donny and Dave chat about ways to strengthen your marriage and how mercy triumphs over judgement.

Matthew 7 challenges us to examine the difference between righteous discernment and hypocritical judgment. We discover that Jesus isn't forbidding us from ever making moral evaluations—instead, He's calling us to start with humility and self-examination. The vivid image of trying to remove a speck from someone's eye while a log protrudes from our own reveals how blind we can be to our own faults w...

On today's episode, Donny and Dave talk about Donny's Crossfit progress and what's next at Fountain City Church.

This message cuts straight to the heart of our modern struggle with anxiety and control through Jesus's timeless words in Matthew 6:33-34. We're challenged to examine what we're truly seeking first in our lives—are we building our own little kingdoms of comfort and security, or are we pursuing God's reign and righteousness? The contrast is stark: when we seek first our own kingdom, anxiety rules o...

Donny and Dave talk about the Daily Kairos journal and the two-way glass of "worry windows".

In a world where anxiety has become the third most common health disorder in our nation—affecting more people than diabetes and all cancers combined—Pastor David Williams invites us to consider a radically different perspective. Drawing from Matthew 6:25-32, this message challenges us to look beyond our worry windows filled with concerns about family, finances, work, and failures. Jesus doesn't di...

We're challenged to confront our anxieties head-on through the lens of faith. Drawing from Matthew 6, we're reminded of Jesus' profound words: 'Do not be anxious about your life.' This isn't just a suggestion, but a command rooted in understanding God's character and provision. We're invited to shift our perspective from worrying about earthly needs to trusting in God's abundant care. The analogy...

On today's episode, Donny and Dave talk about the Parable of the Tenants and giving your first and best to Jesus in your everyday life.

Explore Jesus' teachings on the importance of spiritual focus and undivided devotion to God. It emphasizes that our focus shapes who we become, and we cannot serve both God and money. The pastor encourages listeners to give God their first and best, both in terms of finances and overall devotion, leading to true freedom and abundant life.

On today's episode, Donny and Dave talk about money and Matthew 6, along with a variety of other scripture references.

Donny and Dave talk about RENEW and what they witnessed the Lord do this past week.

Donna Corum Donna grew up in a Christian home, surrounded by faithful parents and grandparents. She attended church regularly, always believing in Jesus but not yet understanding what it meant to follow Him completely and proclaim the gospel through baptism. Since attending Fountain City Church, the Lord has been stirring her heart to take this step of obedience. As she was studying God’s Word, th...

Olivia Cates Olivia first started going to church as a teenager but drifted away in college after being hurt by a very legalistic environment that left her fearful and uncertain. For years she wrestled with doubt, until about a year ago when she felt convicted to learn more about the Bible. As she studied its reliability, her faith in God was renewed, and she began looking for a church. She found...

We're challenged to embrace the transformative truth of 'Christ in you, the hope of glory' from Colossians 1:27. This isn't just about Jesus being with us, but dwelling within us. We're reminded that our identity in Christ is not about our own efforts or goodness, but about His presence inside us. The speaker uses a vivid illustration to show how we are completely enveloped in God's presence when...

We dive deep into Hebrews 11, often called the 'Hall of Faith.' This passage challenges our common misconceptions about what true faith looks like. We learn that sometimes God delivers believers immediately through miracles or behind-the-scenes work, while other times He gives us the grace to endure suffering. The key is understanding that God's deliverance is best, whether it comes immediately or...

We're challenged to raise our expectations of what God can do in our lives. The story of Peter and John healing the lame man at the temple gate in Acts 3 serves as a profound reminder that God often exceeds our expectations in miraculous ways. We're encouraged to see interruptions as divine setups for God's intervention. The beautiful gate, where the lame man sat daily, symbolizes how we sometimes...

In this episode, Donny & Dave talk about how God is moving throughout the church, getting ready for Renew Conference, Habakkuk, and the Prenew series.

In a world that often feels chaotic and broken, many of us find ourselves longing for something more - a divine intervention, a spiritual awakening, a personal revival. But how do we invite such transformation into our lives? The answer may lie in a powerful passage from Isaiah 64, which offers timeless wisdom for those seeking renewal. The cry of the desperate heart is captured beautifully in Isa...

In one of the final episodes of the Renew Podcast, we get to hear from Nick Campbell, our Worship Pastor at Fountain City Church, about what it means to worship from the overflow of our walk with Christ. Dave & Nick also talk about preparing our hearts for Renew and how God has been moving in recent weeks.

In our final speaker interview, Donny & Dave interview Cory Lethgo, Pastor of Riverstone Church, about how God is moving in his life, the growth at Riverstone Church, how thankful he is for his wife, and what's in store for night one of the Renew Conference.

Read 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 (ESV) Paul’s prayer here is short, but full of vision. He’s asking God to help the Thessalonians live lives worthy of the calling they’ve received, not by their own strength, but by His power. It’s a prayer for resolve, for faith, and for a life that glorifies Jesus in everything. As we pray, we’re asking God to fulfill what He’s planted in us. To give us strength to w...
