Grief and the Greater Adventure

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/09/07

Grief touches every life, but it doesn’t have to define the end of the story. In this message, Pastor Carl Nichols reminds us that grief is the evidence of love—and when we bring our brokenness to God, He heals, comforts, and gives us strength to press forward. Discover how your pain can become purpose, and how the greater adventure begins when you release the past and step into the destiny God has marked out for you.

We Are Relevant and We Refuse to Come Down

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/08/31

You were never meant to settle for survival—you were made for more. Made For More is a powerful series walking through the book of Nehemiah, reminding us that God often breaks something in us before He rebuilds through us. Each week, we explore what it means to be Relevant—not just in name, but in how we respond to pain, pressure, and purpose. From praying through the pain to embracing divine burdens, we’re learning that discomfort is often the birthplace of calling. This series also challenges us

We Are Relevant and We Work While It’s Day

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/08/17

This message focuses on the urgency and responsibility believers have to act on God’s instructions without delay, using Nehemiah 3 as an example of unified and purposeful work. Pastor Carl Nichols emphasizes that opportunities have an expiration date—when God has already spoken, there’s no need to pray for further direction. Like the builders of Jerusalem’s wall, each person has a role, and immediate obedience creates momentum that inspires others. Delaying obedience is essentially saying “no” to

We Are Relevant and We Make Big Asks…of God and of...

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/08/10

In this message from the Made for More series, Pastor Carl Nichols emphasizes that when God gives you a vision, you shouldn’t play it small—you should boldly ask for what’s needed. Drawing from Nehemiah 2, the sermon highlights five bold moves: pray first, speak up even when afraid, ask with both passion and a plan, trust God with the outcome, and invite others into the vision. Nehemiah approached the king with a clear and courageous plan, proving that faith paired with strategy leads to favor

We Are Relevant and We Pray Through the Pain

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/08/03

In the sermon Made for More: “We Are Relevant and We Pray Through the Pain”, Pastor Carl Nichols draws from the story of Nehemiah to show that before God rebuilds through us, He often breaks something within us. Using Nehemiah’s journey, he outlines a progression: first, we must sit down to cry, allowing ourselves to feel the brokenness around us; then we kneel down to pray, not just interceding for others, but repenting alongside them; and finally, we stand up and act, stepping boldly into the work

A Different Spirit

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/07/27

This message highlights the unwavering faith and bold spirit of Caleb, who stood out among his peers because he followed God wholeheartedly. While others doubted and disobeyed, Caleb’s “different spirit” positioned him to inherit the promise God made—even after 45 years of waiting in the wilderness. His name, meaning “dog,” symbolizes loyalty, grit, and courage to lead without backing down. Caleb didn’t let age or fear stop him; instead, he declared strength in his old age and boldly claimed what

Giants and Grasshoppers

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/07/20

In “Giants and Grasshoppers,” Pastor Carl Nichols emphasizes that your perspective can either push you into your promise or trap you in the wilderness. Drawing from the story of the Israelite spies, he outlines four facts about faith: what you see shapes who you become; how you view yourself influences how others see you; real faith stands even when fear is popular; and your mindset can delay your destiny. The Israelites’ fear distorted their vision, identity, and obedience, ultimately costing them

From Sinai to Pentecost

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/07/06

In “Lessons from the Wilderness: From Sinai to Pentecost,” Pastor Carl Nichols explores four key shifts between the events at Mount Sinai and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. At Sinai, God’s power caused fear and distance, but at Pentecost, His presence brought boldness and closeness. The law given at Sinai brought death and exposed sin, while the Spirit at Pentecost brought life and the power to overcome sin. Where God once wrote His commands on stone tablets, He now writes them on

The Law, the Servant, and the Savior

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/07/06

This sermon, Lessons from the Wilderness: The Law, the Servant, and the Savior, explores how God’s law was never meant to save us but to reveal His holiness and expose our need for a Savior. Like a mirror, the law reflects our flaws but cannot cleanse us. Jesus, through His perfect life, fulfilled the moral, civil, and ceremonial laws, completing what the law could not by offering grace that transforms us from the inside out. Grace doesn’t abolish the moral law but internalizes and empowers it

The Law and the Lamb

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/06/29

This sermon, Lessons From the Wilderness: The Law and the Lamb, explores God’s covenant through the lens of His standard, His heart, and His mercy. The Ten Commandments are not just a list of rules, but a mirror that reveals our need for transformation. Jesus intensifies the standard by focusing not only on our actions, but on our inner motives and desires, calling us to become new people. While in Exodus the guilty drink the bitterness of their rebellion, the Gospels reveal that Jesus—the innocent

Chasing Idols

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/06/22

This sermon, Lessons from the Wilderness: Chasing Idols, explores how idolatry—past and present—can hinder us from fully trusting and walking with God into the future He’s prepared for us. The Israelites longed for Egypt, romanticizing their past bondage when faced with the discomfort of the wilderness. They built golden calves when God seemed silent, crafting counterfeit comforts in place of divine trust. These moments reveal that idols aren’t always carved images—they’re anything we cling to more

When Men Take The Hill

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/06/15

This series unpacks how God often leads us into a wilderness season after deliverance from bondage, emphasizing that freedom is just the starting point. In the wilderness, God reshapes our identity, breaks old mindsets tied to our past, and refines us for the purpose ahead. Though we may leave physical bondage, spiritual and emotional baggage often remains, and it’s in this refining season that God prepares us for the Promised Land by transforming our thinking and reshaping our hearts.

Bitter Water, Empty Stomachs, and a Faithful God

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/06/08

This sermon, Lessons from the Wilderness: Bitter Water, Empty Stomachs, and a Faithful God, highlights that while God leads us out of Egypt, He often guides us through the wilderness to shape our hearts. The wilderness journey is not just about leaving behind the past but about discovering who we truly are and who God truly is. At the Waters of Marah (Exodus 15:22–27), bitter water mirrored the bitterness in the hearts of the people—testing didn’t change them; it revealed them. In the wilderness of

When God Brings You Out

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/06/01

This sermon, Lessons from the Wilderness: When God Brings You Out, explores how God’s deliverance doesn’t immediately place us in the Promised Land but often leads us into a season of wilderness for transformation. Freedom is just the beginning—God brings us out of bondage before bringing us into purpose. Though we may be free physically, the mindset of Egypt (bondage, fear, comfort with the familiar) can still linger and must be dealt with. The wilderness is God’s refining ground, where old

Manifestation

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/05/25

The message challenges the popular idea of manifestation by emphasizing that we are called to surrender our future to God, not attempt to control it ourselves. Manifesting often places us in God’s seat, feeding the illusion of control and desiring blessings without true relationship with the Giver. Scripture reminds us that God alone establishes our steps and invites us to seek His will through prayer, not demand outcomes through self-will. Ultimately, pursuing our own vision apart from God’s plan

Alcohol, Weed, and Vaping

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/05/18

In this Hot Topics message, we dive into the conversation around alcohol, weed, and vaping through the lens of scripture and spiritual discipline. Often, people turn to substances to cope with pain, emptiness, or the desire to belong, but these choices can lead to deeper bondage and brokenness. God’s Word calls us to a life of stewardship, not self-indulgence, reminding us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. True fulfillment and peace don’t come from temporary highs but from being filled

Stop Comparing Your Calling

Relevant Church Podcast ·

2025/05/11

This Mother’s Day, we’re reminding women to stop comparing their calling to others. You were intentionally and beautifully created by God for a unique purpose. Comparison distracts and discourages you from walking confidently in what you were made to do. True success is being faithful where God has placed you—loving your family, honoring Him, and using your voice, gifts, and story to bless others.
