Yes & Amen: God’s Promise of Peace in Every Storm

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/04/20

Life is full of storms - unexpected challenges, anxiety, broken relationships, and circumstances beyond our control. But Jesus promised that His followers could experience real peace even in the middle of chaos. In this message from the Yes and Amen: God’s Keys to Not Giving Up series, we explore how God’s promises bring peace to our minds, hearts, circumstances, and our relationship with Him. When we pair God’s “Yes” with our faith-filled “Amen,” we discover that the peace of Christ is stronger

Yes and Amen: Why God’s Promises Never Fail

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/04/13

We all face seasons where discouragement, confusion, and impossible situations tempt us to give up. But Scripture reminds us that God has given His children thousands of promises - and every single one finds its “Yes” in Jesus. In this message, we explore how to recognize the different types of promises in the Bible and how to stand firmly on them when life gets difficult. When we understand how God’s promises work, our faith grows stronger and our hope becomes unshakable.1. “I Will…” Promises

From Garden to Garden

2026/04/07

The resurrection of Jesus is the greatest news humanity has ever received. But to fully understand the power of the empty tomb, we have to start much earlier - at the beginning of the story. In this message, we explore three gardens in Scripture that reveal God’s plan for redemption: the Garden of Eden, where sin entered the world; the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus chose obedience and prepared to bear the weight of our sin; and the Garden Tomb, where death was defeated forever. The resurrection

Our Pursuit: Seek First the Kingdom

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/03/30

In this message from the Our Pursuit series, we’re reminded that following Jesus isn’t about casually adding faith to our lives; it’s about pursuing the Kingdom of God above everything else. Scripture tells us that when we seek first His Kingdom, everything else falls into its proper place. Yet many people want the benefits of the Kingdom without surrendering to the King.Jesus described the Kingdom like a treasure hidden in a field - so valuable that someone would sell everything they own just to

Our Pursuit: One Spirit, One Church

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/03/22

This week, Pastor David continues the Our Pursuit series by exploring what it means to pursue unity with one another. From the early church in Acts to Jesus’ prayer in John 17, Scripture shows that unity among believers is powerful evidence that the Gospel is real. But unity doesn’t happen automatically - it requires surrender, humility, grace, and a willingness to follow the example of Christ. When believers lay down selfishness and live by the Spirit, the church becomes a picture of God’s love to

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/03/16

This week, guest speaker David Martin Jr. explores the true meaning of worship and challenges the common misconception that worship is just music. While many people associate worship with a stage, a band, or a certain style of songs, the Bible reveals that worship is far deeper; it’s a posture of the heart and a lifestyle that reflects what we value most. When we understand why we worship, we move from being passive consumers to active participants in God’s presence, engaging Him with gratitude,

Our Pursuit: Why You’re Not Hearing God

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/03/09

This week, Pastor David teaches on one of the most important questions believers ask: How do I hear God’s voice? God isn’t silent - He speaks to His children through the Holy Spirit, His Word, and the everyday moments of life. But distractions, unaddressed sin, and the noise of the world can make it difficult to discern His voice. In this message, we learn how to position our hearts to hear from God clearly and walk in the guidance He wants to give us.1. “God Wants to Speak to His Children” (John

Our Pursuit: Caught Red-Handed

2026/03/02

This week, Pastor David walks through the powerful story of the woman caught in adultery and reminds us that the law exposes our guilt, but only Jesus removes our stain. We have all been caught red-handed before God. Our good works can’t wash it away. Our excuses can’t fix it. But when Jesus steps between us and the stones of justice, grace rewrites our story. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can truly be forgiven, this message will show you how the blood of Christ speaks a better word over your

Our Pursuit: Go After the One (Sammy Lopez)

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/02/23

This week, guest speaker Sammy Lopez walks us through John 4 and the powerful encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman. This message goes deeper than a conversation at a well - it reveals the heart of a Savior who pursues the lost without fear, without prejudice, and without compromise. What you did, what you’re doing, and who you are does not scare Jesus. And if we belong to Him, we are called to pursue others the same way He pursued us. This sermon challenges us to love boldly, speak truth

Our Pursuit: Your Thoughts Are Shaping Your Life

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/02/16

This week, Pastor David teaches that the direction of your life is determined by the direction of your thoughts. Many believers try to change their behavior without addressing their thinking, but Scripture makes it clear that transformation begins in the mind. When we learn to take every thought captive, guard what we allow into our hearts, and fix our minds on God’s truth, we experience freedom, peace, and clarity in His will. God has already given you the mind of Christ - but you must choose to

Our Pursuit: How to Approach God

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/02/09

This week, Pastor David teaches on how we approach God in prayer and relationship. Many of us come to God only with requests, needs, and crises, but Scripture shows a better way - entering His presence with thanksgiving, reverence, and relationship. When we slow down, remember what He has done, and recognize who He is, prayer stops feeling like a chore and starts becoming life-giving again. This message challenges us to pursue God not just for what He can do, but for who He is.1. “Remember What He’s

Our Pursuit: The Cost of Indifference

2026/02/02

This week, Pastor David delivers a sobering and hope-filled call to repentance, reminding us that revival always begins with a change of direction. Drawing from Jesus’ words in John 15 and His letters to the churches in Revelation, we’re confronted with the danger of lukewarm faith, misplaced priorities, and celebrating potential over fruit. This message challenges believers to stop settling for spiritual productivity without intimacy and return to wholehearted pursuit of Christ. Repentance is not

What God Wants Most From You (Brad Stroup)

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/01/28

What does God actually want from us? When Jesus was asked about the greatest commandment, His answer reframed everything - not rules, not performance, but love. In this message, guest speaker Brad Stroup invites us to reset our priorities and rediscover why we were created: to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. This teaching calls us out of distraction, routine faith, and familiarity, and into a daily, intentional pursuit of God that shapes every area of life.1. The Greatest

Our Pursuit: Seek First

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/01/20

This week, Pastor David continues the Our Pursuit series by teaching on fasting and prayer as a powerful way to seek God first. Scripture shows that fasting isn’t about punishment or religious pressure - it’s about positioning our hearts to hear God clearly, receive direction, and experience breakthrough. From Moses on the mountain, to Esther before the king, to Jesus in the wilderness, we see that when God’s people humble themselves through prayer and fasting, God reveals His nature, reverses the

Our Pursuit: Prayer That Moves Heaven

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2026/01/14

This week, Pastor David launches the Our Pursuit series by calling the church to intentional, passionate prayer. Scripture shows that prayer is not passive wishful thinking - it is active pursuit. From Jeremiah’s promise that God will be found by those who seek Him wholeheartedly, to Jesus’ call to pray without giving up, we’re reminded that prayer is how we draw near to God, gain supernatural strength, avoid deception, and build our lives on a solid foundation. Prayer isn’t performance, pressure,

His Pursuit: When Faith Wavers (David Faunce)

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/12/30

This week, guest speaker David Faunce teaches from Matthew 11–12 and addresses a struggle every believer faces at some point: doubt. Even John the Baptist - the one who prepared the way for Jesus - found himself questioning when circumstances didn’t match his expectations. Through the lives of John, the Pharisees, and the crowds who witnessed Jesus’ miracles, we discover that not all doubt is the same. Some doubt is rooted in indifference, some in rebellion, and some in honest confusion. Jesus

His Pursuit: When Grace Calls Your Name

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/12/23

This week, Pastor David teaches from Luke 19 and the story of Zacchaeus, reminding us that Jesus is always moving toward the lost, the overlooked, and the unlikely. Zacchaeus wasn’t searching for religion; he just wanted a glimpse of Jesus. But grace had other plans. In a moment that changed everything, Jesus stopped, called him by name, and invited Himself into Zacchaeus’ life. This message reveals a God who pursues us personally, meets us where we are, and transforms us from the inside out.1. “A

His Pursuit: The God Who Comes After You

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/12/08

This week, Pastor David opens our new series, His Pursuit, by reading out of Isaiah 61 and Luke 15 to reveal the relentless, pursuing heart of God. Jesus doesn’t wait for the lost to find Him - He goes after them. Whether it’s the wandering sheep, the missing coin, or the runaway son, Scripture shows us a Father who searches, restores, celebrates, and makes all things new. No matter how far someone has drifted, God’s grace is already on the move toward them.1. “The Mission of Jesus” (Isaiah 61:1–3)*

This week at Great Oaks Fellowship, guest speaker Delayna Wilkins leads us through Foster & Adopt Sunday — a powerful reminder that caring for vulnerable children isn’t just charity… it’s the gospel in action. Through Delayna's testimony, Scripture, and the heart of Jesus, we’re challenged to see the foster crisis not as someone else’s responsibility, but as a mission field the church is uniquely called to enter. Every believer has a role to play — some foster, some mentor, some pray, some

Your Words Shape Your World (Jason Miller)

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/11/24

This week, Pastor Jason teaches on the power of our thoughts and the power of our words. Scripture shows that what we think becomes what we speak, and what we speak shapes the direction of our lives. Many of the battles we face in the mind didn’t start with us - they began with words spoken over us. But God’s Word has the final say. Through 2 Corinthians 10, Proverbs 18, Ezekiel 37, and Romans 12, we learn how to take thoughts captive, speak God’s truth, break strongholds, and declare life over the
