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)*

Finding Your “Yes” in Foster & Adopt (Delayna Wilkins)

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/12/01

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

Nothing But The Blood

Just as the Israelites were helpless slaves in Egypt, humanity is helpless under the weight of sin - until the blood of the Lamb is applied. Through Exodus 12, Matthew 26, and the New Testament, we see that salvation doesn’t come by effort, goodness, or religious

Fruit Reveals Faith

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/11/10

This week, Pastor David preaches from Matthew 7 and James 2, reminding us that genuine faith is revealed through the fruit of our lives. We can say all the right things, but if our lives don’t reflect the love and character of Christ, something’s missing. True disciples don’t just talk about faith; they live it out through obedience, compassion, and surrender. This message challenges us to examine the fruit in our lives and stay rooted in Christ, the true Vine. 1. “You’ll Know Them by Their Fruit”

Do You Want to Be Healed?

2025/11/03

This week, Pastor David shares from John 5, where Jesus encounters a man who had been paralyzed for thirty-eight years. In a powerful moment of grace, Jesus asks a simple but life-changing question: “Do you want to be healed?” Through this story, we’re reminded that Jesus doesn’t just fix our circumstances; He restores our hearts and gives us the strength to walk in new life. When we respond to His word, everything changes. 1. “The Pool of Bethesda” (John 5:1–5) - Crowds gathered around the pool

Firm Foundation: Repentance and the Anchor of Hope

Great Oaks Fellowship Podcast ·

2025/10/27

This week, Pastor David unpacks Hebrews 6 and challenges believers to move beyond the basics of faith into deeper maturity. Many Christians stop at the foundation - salvation through Jesus - but God desires to build something lasting on that foundation. Through this passage, we’re reminded that repentance isn’t punishment; it’s a gift that keeps our hearts tender, our faith anchored, and our hope secure in Christ. 1. “Don’t Stop at the Foundation” (Hebrews 6:1–3) - Our salvation in Christ is the

Swallowed Up by Life

When life feels fragile and temporary - when we’re groaning under the weight of this world - God reminds us that what’s ahead is not death but life. In 2 Corinthians 5, Paul shows us what it means to live with eternity in view: confident, purposeful, and reconciled. We’re not just surviving in our clay jars; we’re carriers of glory.Text: 2 Corinthians 51. “When This Tent Is Taken Down” (v.1-5) - Our earthly bodies are temporary dwellings. - God has prepared an eternal house for us — a permanent,

This week, Pastor David calls the church to rediscover Scripture, remove hidden idols, and restore the temple of God in our lives (2 Kings 22–23). What we tolerate becomes what we celebrate, and what we celebrate becomes what we accept. It’s time to clean house.1. DISTRACTIONS & FOCUS - The enemy loves distraction. - We must quiet our hearts to receive God’s Word.2.

More Than Bread Alone

2025/10/06

This week, Pastor David preaches on the power and necessity of God’s Word in the life of every believer. From the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness to Paul’s charge in 2 Timothy, Scripture reminds us that we don’t live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. The Bible isn’t just a book to read; it’s the source of wisdom, strength, and direction for our daily walk.

The Gospel You Can’t Keep to Yourself

This week, Pastor David unpacks The Simple Gospel—not just as the foundation of our faith, but as the message we are called to share with the world. Every person you meet is broken and searching, and only Jesus can heal and restore. The gospel isn’t complicated: God’s design, our sin, Christ’s sacrifice, and the new life He offers through faith. This message will stir you to move beyond silence and comfort, and step boldly into conversations that carry eternal weight. The world doesn’t need our

Love That Won’t Grow Cold

2025/09/22

This week, Pastor David preaches from Luke 10 and the parable of the Good Samaritan, reminding us that in the last days, the love of many will grow cold. But God has called His people to a different way - to love Him fully and love our neighbors sacrificially. True discipleship isn’t measured by how much we know, but by how we love, even when it costs us. Whether it’s our family at home, the stranger on the street, or even those we consider enemies, Jesus commands us to love as He has loved us. This

Apathy Is No Longer on the Menu

This week, Pastor David preaches from the book of Esther, reminding us that God has placed His people in this cultural moment for a reason. In a world marked by death, division, and darkness, the church cannot stay silent or apathetic. Just as Esther had to decide whether to risk everything to save her people, we too must choose whether Jesus is truly Lord of our lives - beyond comfort, convenience, and preference. Now is the time to rise up, fast, pray, and walk in the authority God has given

When Desperation Meets Jesus

This week, Pastor David preaches from Luke 8, where two desperate people encounter Jesus in the middle of impossible situations. Jairus, a synagogue leader, risked his reputation to beg for his dying daughter. A woman, rejected and isolated for 12 years, pushed through the crowd to touch the edge of His robe. Both found what they were searching for - not because of their status or strength, but because of their faith. Jesus still responds to desperate hearts today. When fear tells us it’s over, He

Shame Doesn’t Win (Jason Miller)

This week, Jason Miller reminds us through his own story that no matter how far we’ve fallen or how long we’ve carried shame, God’s grace is greater. From decades of addiction and self-condemnation to freedom and new life in Christ, this testimony shows how God weaves His plans of restoration even in our lowest moments. Through the truth of His Word, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the love of Jesus, chains are broken and new life begins. If you’ve ever believed the lie that you’ve gone too far or
