Pillar Church Podcast

Because we all have different experiences, we all see money in different ways. However, as believers in the body of Christ, the question is: how does God see money? What does the Bible say about it? And how can we better steward what God has placed in our hands once we grasp this new understanding?

We all know that God is sovereign, having all power and all authority. However, that doesn’t mean as believers, we just get to sit back and enjoy the ride. God asks US to partner with HIM to bring His Kingdom to earth. But how do we do that? Where do we start? And what can it look like when we come alongside God in partnership to what He is already doing on the earth?

The first step towards experiencing any sort of growth or personal advancement in your life is identifying where you are now. So...where are you? What IS the truth about you? What does Jesus say about it? And what are the keys to a life of abundance?

What would happen if the Church didn't just come to see, but came to seek? What would it look like if you spent intentional time to seek the Lord with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind? What would change, and more importantly, what COULD change, if the body took their place to serve and love the people God has placed around us?

One thing we know for certain — it is impossible to walk out the life God has called us to live apart from prayer. So how do we live as a "people" of prayer? Join us as we walk through ten practical steps on how to pray well, learn the significance of praying often, and discover the significant impact of praying fervently.

When we take a true look at our sin through the eyes of God, it completely changes our perspective. We must ask ourselves: How do we see the sins of others? Why do we often fixate on the sins of others? How should we see our own sin? And most importantly, how does God see our sin?

Apart from Jesus, darkness is our natural reality, but as believers in Jesus, we have access to the Light of the World. But what does light actually do? Why do we need it? How do we get it? And once we have the Light, what do we do with it?

The story of Blind Bartimaeus reveals much about the character of Jesus -- “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asks Bartimaeus. And today, we ponder that same question. Do you know what you need? Do you know the area of your life that Jesus can step in a fill the void? What could happen if we invited Him into the healing process? Remember, He meets you where you are, and He’s more near than...

The influence of a father (or parent) has generational impact, and a father’s influence on his children builds an image of God for them to embrace. So what does an influential father look like? How do we become one? And what generational impact can it have once we embrace the process?

Becoming a disciple of Jesus means walking in and practicing the way of Jesus. But the journey of a disciple which leads to life, requires you to go down a road that feels like death. It’s not for the faint of heart. So how do we get to a place of discipline? What practices must we put in place? And how do we remain faithful through it all?

Did you know that God can still speak to you and through you? He speaks in several ways, but one of the biggest ways is through the gift of prophecy — but prophecy is often misunderstood. Why do so many have concern over prophecy? Why are people offended by prophecy? And why would people ever NOT want a prophetic word?

It's one of the most untapped cheat codes in the Kingdom -- but it's also one of the most misunderstood. What does it truly mean to pray in the spirit? Where does it talk about tongues in the Bible? And by using it, how can we partner with the Holy Spirit to fight our enemy on a whole other level?

It was one of Jesus' primary messages on Earth --- "Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the kingdom of Heaven is near." --- but how are we actually living with a day-to-day urgency of this truth? What if we embraced the same heart that Jesus had towards those around Him? And how can we embrace a spirit of boldness to live out the calling that Jesus places on each and every believer in Him?

The Israelites experienced it. Jesus experienced it. You, either have or will, experience it. Although never easy, wilderness seasons are necessary. It's in the wilderness seasons of life that God shapes us in to the person that He desires us to be. But what perspective can we keep in the wilderness? What can we learn there? And what can happen if we use it to actually carry us into what God desir...

When you think of the Holy Spirit, do you think of Him as a friend? The fact is, whether you do or not, that is His ultimate desire. But how can we reframe our thinking to see Him that way? Why does He even want to be a friend? And what does it look like when we put our full trust in His direction for our lives?

Are you under a weight? Weight is heavy. Weight is a burden. Weight can be crushing. But, it’s amazing how much weight can be lifted when we lift it up in prayer. This week, we take intentional time to pray over fours “weights” in life — the weight of worry, the weight of waiting, the weight of someone you love & the weight of wrestling.

It's a weighty thought to realize that we can disappoint and sadden the Holy Spirit. If we want to fully embrace the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we must first understand that the Holy Spirit can be quenched. But how does it happen? When does it happen? And what can we do to attune to the sensitive nature of the Holy Spirit to ensure we allow Him to do what He wants, in and through ou...

As believers, we are called to live as dedicated disciples of Jesus. But what does that look like? How do we move to a mindset of comfort to a mindset of growth? This week, Brent Hatchett brings a message calling the believer into a life from just coming to church to becoming the church.

The Holy Spirit...quite possibly one of the most polarizing topics in recent church history. But why is the Holy Spirit "weird"? What does the Bible say about it? When did the “weird” narrative begin? And why does man fight against it?

On Easter Sunday, we dive into an intimate understanding of The Cross and resurrection. Why did He do it? What does it mean for Him? What does it mean for you?

The number of one opportunity on earth is the opportunity to be friends with the God of the universe. The number one compliment of heaven is when God Himself calls you His friend. But the number one responsibility in this life is God asking you to bring Him more friends. So how do we become friends with God? How do we know that he even wants more friends? And what role can we play in bringing Him...

The day Jesus performed His first miracle was also the day we hear the last recorded words from His mother, Mary --- “Whatever He says to you, do it.” But what does it look like to live a life of obedience to Jesus? How do we invite Him into our everyday lives? And what actually happens when we give Him everything?

If we want to be like Jesus, we must first learn to abide in Him. But what does that look like? What steps must we take? And how do we step into our anointing?

God created YOU for a very specific purpose. And as His sons & daughters, He commissions and anoints us for it. But how do we discover it? How do we walk in it with confidence? And once we know it, what do we do with it?

What does it look like to live the life that God called you to? -- a life where you are truly being used by Him to do what He created you to do. It all starts with surrender, but surrender never comes easy. So what does it look like practically? What in our life must we actually surrender? And how do we know we are FULLY surrendered to His will?
