The Mosaic Church Podcast

Everyone has some kind of talent but relying on capacity to perform is a life lived in the privilege of what we can do. It limits us to be just who we are, who we’ve been told we are and what comes naturally. What God calls us to is growth, which requires effort and persistence. In week 2 of Mind Games, we see how Joseph, son of Jacob, gets an attitude adjustment that saves his life. Maybe all tha...

Does God want you to have a new life? Or did Jesus come to teach us a new way to live? That slight difference in phrasing causes us to think about our faith differently. In week 1 of a 4 week series, this message helps us to understand the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset, especially when it comes to our beliefs and the way we see God. Join us for the next few weeks as we lo...

There’s a reason balloons are symbols of celebration. They're bright, joyful and lift our spirits. As Christians, we're called to be the voices of hope in the world. In this message, Pastor Naeem encourages us to be balloons instead of bricks and describes the differences so we can identify how we show up for the people around us. This is the third part of a series on the vision of Mosaic Church:...

It’s nice to feel special but what’s even more important is making other people feel special. Children need to be made to feel special and it’s adults who assure them that they are. When it comes to your spirituality or faith, are you spiritually mature? Or is it time to grow up? This convicting message on how to love the people around us will walk us through how to make the people in our lives fe...

In week 1 of a 3 part series, Pastor Naeem breaks down the “Live by Faith” part of Mosaic’s vision. If the term evangelism freaks you out or you’re not honestly sure to how to let people know that you’re a Christian, this message will help you feel more comfortable talking about your faith. ——————— Sunday Sermons is the recorded messages from Mosaic Church in Charlotte, NC.

Do you know people who are generous? Or are they just rich? Generosity isn’t tied to specific amounts, percentages or numbers. Living a life of generosity is more about your motivation, heart and expectation. Listen to this message to learn the difference between paying bills, giving and living generously. ——————— Sunday Sermons is the recorded messages from Mosaic Church in Charlotte, NC. You can...

There is no lack of voices telling you who to be or what to do. Between social media, your family, your employer or your friends, the contradictions can be too much. How often do you silence those opinions and ask God His instead? Tiff shares a pretty wild story of King Jeroboam from 1 Kings 13 to show what can happen when we turn to all the other voices in our lives instead of God. Listen to figu...

Have you ever pursued something? Have you ever worked hard for something that didn’t fulfill you the way you thought it would? In this message on Hosea and Gomer, our Youth and Young Adult director, Sam Cain, explains how God’s pursuit of you is different than our pursuits of worldly things. God’s relationship with us is different from any other relationship we could have. Because God’s pursuit of...

Deprived love is attached to conditions. Depraved love is about control. Divine love is unique, having nothing to do with the way other people love (or don’t love) you. God loves you uniquely so you get to love people around you uniquely. Find out how in this message from Pastor Naeem on intentional love. ——————— Sunday Sermons is the recorded messages from Mosaic Church in Charlotte, NC. You can...

In honor of Father’s Day, we asked some dads from our own Mosaic community to share their lived experiences as married, divorced and single men from a variety of backgrounds. They share what they’ve learned in raising young daughters and sons as well as how their parenting has changed as their kids have grown up, leaving them to be empty nesters. In this conversation, we hope you’ll learn some pra...

You don’t have to be who you used to be. You can change and become the person you want to be - the person God created you to be - with a more confident faith. It starts with redefining submission and understanding how to use humility to bend your free will to better reflect God’s will in your life. Through the story of Gideon in the Old Testament, Pastor Kristin shows us how God puts this judge ba...

If your faith no longer fits or you’re struggling to believe in a God who doesn’t seem to be keeping his promises, this message will remind you that you are not failing in your belief. God is not mad at you and He is not bothered by your timeline, your questions or your wandering. Through the story of Gideon in the book of Judges, Pastor Kristin Mockler Young will help you find acceptance and clos...

Speeding can be fun but in life, it leads to exhaustion and burnout. This message is for anyone who is tired, weary, burnt out on religion or who feels like you can’t stop because you have to keep accomplishing, keep striving and keep racing to keep up with the world. If you learn to pause daily, you will live more purposefully. If you learn to set your own pace, you can control your peace. Carve...

Just like songs can bring emotion that transport us into past moments, theologian Joel Muddamalle uses the Psalms of Ascent to take us back to the overwhelm of the Israelites in Psalm 124. Whatever you’re going through - death, sickness, grief, sadness, overwhelm, despair - these scriptures can help reframe your mind, orient your heart and direct your steps. There is hope in your fear because Jesu...

If the weight of being a parent, employee, friend and spouse feels heavy on your spirit, this message will encourage you. God sees all that you are carrying and He doesn’t equate your burdens to weakness, He sees gritty faith. Share this message with someone who needs encouragement to keep going, keep persevering and not listen to the voice that tells them to quit on their passions. ——————— Sunday...

Are people talking about you or telling your story? As we wrap our series on looking at our stories and the way God is moving in our lives, Pastor Naeem challenges us to think one more time about our stories. Mary of Bethany did something extravagant and people are still talking about it. Is your story worth telling? Or could you step out in faith to live a more extravagant life because of all tha...

Stop editing your story. Your flaws and failures aren’t details to leave untold. They are where the power lies if you will own it - who you are, what you’ve done and how God has met you there. In this message on the demon possessed man (and then demon possessed pigs), Pastor Naeem reveals the hidden knowledge and underlying meanings of this story. If you’re familiar with this gospel story, hear it...

We write with sharpies because they’re permanent, as though their purpose is to be sure the story is told. But sometimes, stories are told incorrectly or incompletely. In week 2 of “Tell The Story,” Pastor Naeem revisits the story of the woman at the well with a fresh perspective that brings more depth to the story. Share this message with someone who is looking for purpose or feels like their sto...

“Soo..what’s your story?” If this question leaves you unsure how to answer, this message from Pastor Kristin will help you understand what your story is and why it matters that you tell it. In week 1 of “Tell the Story” we look at Mary Magdalene’s story and think about what would have happened if she’d let someone else tell their version of her Easter morning resurrection Sunday with Jesus. ——————...

The Christian faith is built on Jesus’ resurrection on Easter morning. But is God still rolling stones? There is a stone in your life that needs to be rolled away because it’s threatening to keep you trapped in death. The Easter story shows us that this miracle was only the beginning of what God can and will do when we lay down the stones we’d rather throw at people. There is hope for a new life e...

Good Friday is the day we remember Jesus’ sacrificial love. But it’s also a day for us to remember that there is change coming. If you’re sitting in pain, grief or disillusionment, this message is for you. If you’re in a period of waiting, this reminder is for you. If you long to have hope but don’t see it coming on the horizon, enter into communion and remembrance to experience Good Friday as God...

Scroll most church websites or social media feeds and you’ll find one thing consistently: everyone looks the same. In a world full of so many different cultures, races and types of people, why does church feel like it’s the most segregated?  We believe Jesus called his church to be diverse and multiethnic, and we have scripture to back it up. Listen to Pastor Mark, of Mosaic Little Rock and the Mo...

Community is something we’re supposed to be part of as Christians but the problem with community is that it involves people. People who are broken tend to hurt us but there is a glue that holds all of our jagged edges together, even in the midst of conflict and conflicting beliefs. Pastor Naeem shows us the importance of moving from being self-centered to self-aware in week 4 of “How-To.” If you’r...

In order to manage our finances in a way that makes us generous people, we have to have a destination and we have to utilize discipline. In week 3 of our series “How-To,” Pastor Naeem teaches practical ways to move from good intentions to creating heavenly embassies here on earth with our generosity. ——————— Sunday Sermons is the recorded messages from Mosaic Church in Charlotte, NC.
