  You Might Be Worshiping God for FREE | Alvin Love III 17.08.2026 28мин

  What does it actually look like to practice sacrificial worship? This week, Pastor Alvin dives into the heart of biblical worship: sacrifice. Drawing from Romans 12:1 and John 4:23-24, he unpacks why worship was never meant to be convenient, and why God isn't asking for your leftovers. He's asking for everything. Using the picture of a bank deposit, Pastor Alvin reminds us that God gave us His all, so it's only reasonable that He's asking for ours in return. This message challenges us to move past a Sunday morning routine and into a lifestyle of costly, sacrificial devotion. Because biblical worship was never about convenience. It's about what you're willing to give up. How costly is your worship? How sacrificial is it? This week's word will make you ask yourself both.

  Why Your RELATIONSHIP with GOD Might Be One-Sided | Alvin Love III 10.08.2026 37мин

  Is your relationship with God one-sided? This week, Pastor Alvin opens up James 4, Luke 19, and John 15 to challenge us with a simple question: are we truly matching the God who has already given us everything? Every good relationship needs mutual attraction, mutual interest, and mutual service, and God proved his devotion long before we ever turned toward him. Through the story of Abraham and Isaac, we see a God who leads by example and only asks us to give what he's already given first. He is Emmanuel, God with us, and he's still asking the same question today. Do you believe he wants you? And do you want him back? This message will challenge you to stop performing for God and start truly matching his heart through honest prayer and real devotion.

  Spend It on the Lord | Alvin Love III 03.08.2026 39мин

  How do you know whether you're saving or spending your energy on the Lord? This week, we kick off 21 Days of Prayer and Pastor Alvin unpacks what it really means to wait on the Lord in his message titled "Spend It on the Lord." Drawing from Isaiah 40, Isaiah 55, and Proverbs 14, he reminds us that God's ways are often the opposite of our instincts. We think saving our energy grows our energy. Jesus says spending it on Him does, and He says the same about our time, our money, our talent (Luke 6:38, Matthew 16:25). Pastor Alvin shows how waiting isn't passive. It's active, like a server tending to a table, learning the person and priorities of Jesus. As we give instead of hold back, our desires start to align with His. And there's no greater joy than that. This is the mindset God wants us to carry into these 21 days.

  The Weight You're Carrying Was NEVER Yours to Hold | Charne Pretorius 27.07.2026 42мин

  What do you do when life isn't the way it should be? Guest speaker Pastor Charne Pretorius from 3C Church in South Africa joins us with a powerful word from 2 Samuel 21:1-14, the story of a woman who refused to let her sons' story end where it seemed to end. When a promise made generations earlier finally came due, she had a choice to make. And she chose to put her weight where it belonged. Pastor Charne reminds us that life isn't fair. There's an enemy who comes to steal, kill, and destroy, and he's never been on our side. But we were never meant to carry the weight of things that shouldn't be. We're called to cast our cares on Jesus, the one who cares for us, because he doesn't just carry the weight. He took the fall for it. Pastor Charne also shares her own testimony, forty days of prayer and a victory that could only be God's timing. Whatever you're standing over right now, whatever feels too heavy to put down, this message will show you where to lay it. Everything can be the way it should be.

  How to KNOW If You're Truly IN CHRIST | Alvin Love III 20.07.2026 43мин

  What does it really mean to be one with Christ? Building on last week's message on the new wineskin, Pastor Alvin unpacks Matthew 9:17 and shows why God can't pour new things into the old version of us. Through John 15, he introduces the Vinedresser and makes it clear that pruning isn't punishment. It's proof you're already bearing fruit. We're either in Christ or we're not. Bearing much fruit or bearing none. Pastor Alvin challenges us to examine our hearts and our actions, because our lives reveal what we actually believe, and walks through the three levels of judgment: self-judgment, chastisement, and condemnation, making the case that judging yourself first is always the better path. The new wineskin isn't just a new heart. It's a new mind, the mind of Christ. Discover what it looks like to think, live, and walk fully in step with him.

  How to CHOOSE the New Wineskin Every Single Day | Alvin Love III 14.07.2026 37мин

  God has new wine for you. But new wine can only be poured into a new wineskin. Pastor Alvin builds on last week's message, Become a New Wineskin, and takes us deeper into what that actually looks like. Drawing from Matthew 9:17 and Matthew 16:25, he unpacks why following Jesus was never meant to be an addition to our lives. It's a replacement. That means denying yourself daily. Dead to who you were, alive in Christ, every single day. When your faith is in Jesus, God calls you new wineskin and fills you with new wine: new heart, new joy, new relationships, new everything. Discover why the wineskin matters just as much as the wine, and what it looks like to finally overflow.

  Become A New Wineskin | Alvin Love III 06.07.2026 47мин

  What if the thing holding you back isn't what God wants to give you, but what you're trying to hold it in? In this message, Become a New Wine Skin, Pastor Alvin teaches why coming as you are was never meant to mean staying as you are. Drawing from Matthew 9, Luke 17, and more, he walks us through Jesus' words about new wine and old wineskins, and why anything less than a tight grip won't cut it. God wants to pour something new into your life. But that means we've got to be willing to become someone new too. Being born again isn't a one time decision we look back on. It's a daily choice to let go of the old and receive what God has for us. Learn what it means to hold on tight, let go of the old, and become a new wine skin.

  Power: Empowerment | Pastor Alvin III 29.06.2026 41мин

  What if the thing you've been waiting for is something God already gave you? In this message, Pastor Alvin walks through John 5, Ephesians 3, Romans 10, and Hebrews 4 to show us that power and responsibility go hand in hand. Jesus didn't touch the man at the pool. He gave him a word, and that word stirred up enough faith to heal a 38 year condition in an instant. We don't have to wait on God for what he's already given. His mercy, his word, his spirit, faith, and power are already ours. The only thing left to do is mix it with our own faith and take action. If you've been sitting there hoping someone else would move for you, this message will show you that everything you need is already in your hands.

  The inconvenience of being Chosen | Pastor Alvin III 15.06.2026 41мин

  In this message, Pastor Alvin unpacks the Parable of the Talents and makes one thing clear: what God has given you isn't just for you. His power is His property, and He's entrusted it to us with a real expectation. Not a suggestion. An expectation. And how we steward what He's placed in us has eternal consequences. Drawing from Matthew 25, John 7, and more, Pastor Alvin challenges us to stop waiting for living waters to flow to us and start letting them flow from us. Because that's what true belief looks like. Faith isn't just what keeps us calm under pressure. It's what keeps us moving. And the power of the Holy Spirit is what makes the whole journey possible. So here's the question: Are you a fan of Jesus, or have you walked His path?

  Walking in Power | Pastor Alvin III 11.06.2026 47мин

  In this message, Pastor Alvin takes us through Acts 1, Mark 9, 1 Corinthians 2, and Ephesians 3 to show us what it really means to carry God's power. Not just to know about it, but to actually walk in it. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of you. And God's not asking you to sit back and watch what he can do. He's inviting you to be proof that he's still moving. If you've ever wondered why you're not seeing more of God's power in your life, this message is for you.

  Pentecost: Power| Pastor Alvin Love III 01.06.2026 43мин

  Pastor Alvin returns this week for an amazing sermon on the purpose of Pentecost… POWER! Once we are saved, the POWER of God is made available to us through the Holy Spirit. But understanding this POWER requires us to know the difference between God's permissive will and Gods perfect will. It also demands that we know it is the will of God that the church has power, and not in theory but in reality. Through this sermon, Pastor Alvin teaches us what it means to have the power of God active in our lives and provides the ABC's of learning to live in the power Jesus made available to us.   Scripture references: Acts 1:4-9 1 John 3:8 Mark 16:16-18 Ephesians 3:20-21   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  Pastor Shannon Smith | I Need The Whole Package 27.05.2026 37мин

  This week our guest speaker, Shannon Smith, returns for another timely message titled "I Need the Whole Package," where she speaks about unpacking the birth of the Church and what it means to be baptized in the Holy Spirit, not as an add-on to your faith, but as something God always intended for every believer. Just like Peter, who loved Jesus deeply but still couldn't do what God called him to do in his own strength, we were never meant to build the Kingdom on our own. Shannon reminds us that Jesus didn't call us to be lawyers. He called us to be witnesses. And when you operate under the power of the Holy Spirit, you get supernatural results.   Scripture references: Acts 1:1-9 Acts 2:1-8, 14-18, 38-39 1 Corinthians 12:12-14 Ephesians 4:11-12 Galatians 3:3 Matthew 28:19 ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  Still Building Guest Pastor Series| Pastor Pablo Martinez 18.05.2026 39мин

  In this sermon, guest Pastor Pablo Martinez teaches on the keys to the kingdom, righteousness and surrender. Righteousness is the key to the door of peace while surrender is the key to the door of freedom. Pastor Pablo reminded us that real peace isn't something we manufacture from the outside in. It starts with being right with God. He also gets honest about the difference between being healed and being truly free, and why so many of us are still carrying what God already paid for. Perhaps what you've been waiting for is sitting behind the door of peace or freedom!   Scripture References: Isaiah 32:17-18 Matthew 16:18-19 Galatians 5:1 Romans 6:17-18 John 10:9-10 Mark 5:6 Mark 5:15   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  Mother's Day | Pastor CeCe 18.05.2026 32мин

  "Just keep on praying, the Lord is nigh. Just keep on praying, He'll hear your cry. The Lord has promised and His  word is true. Just keep on praying, He'll answer you."   Our Founding Pastor, Pastor CeCe, sang as she encouraged not just mothers, but everyone to pray no matter what. Drawing from Matthew 15, Philippians 4, and more, Pastor CeCe walks us through seven marks of a praying mother and reminds us that prayer isn't a last resort. It's the first response. She challenges us to keep going when God feels silent, to push past opposition, and to worship while we wait. Because silence isn't the end of the story. God is still working.   Scripture references: Matthew 15:21-28 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 Matthew 11:28 Psalm 34:17 Luke 18:38-39 Philippians 4:6-7 Genesis 32:26     ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  Digging Deeper | Pastor Denise Ray 08.05.2026 42мин

  In the second part of our Guest Speaker Series, Pastor Denise Ray (Church on the Rock Ministries) joins us to share an essential message: "Digging Deeper." While we may love God, many of us find ourselves striving to increase our faith and clarify our purpose. Pastor Denise teaches that reaching that next level requires us to "break up" the soil of our hearts. Using the imagery of Luke 6:48 and the resilient trees of Jeremiah 17, she illustrates how a deep foundation and even deeper roots allow us to remain fruitful even in times of extreme heat and hardship. Join us as we learn how to cultivate a life that isn't just surviving, but thriving in the presence of God.     Scripture references: Jeremiah 17:7-8 Luke 6:48 Hosea 10:12   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  From Ashes to Oaks | Pastor Steve Blair 05.05.2026 30мин

  We are excited to have Pastor Steve  Blair with us from Church of the Highlands in our Guest Speaker series teaching on the title, "From Oaks to Ashes". Drawing from Isaiah 61, Pastor Steve reminds us that God doesn't start with broken systems. He starts with broken hearts. Sin robs us. But God restores, and through three divine exchanges, he offers a Crown of Beauty for Ashes, the Oil of Joy for Mourning, and a Garment of Praise for the Spirit of Despair. He doesn't just remove the ashes. He replaces them with dignity. Joy isn't a feeling we wait on. It's a discipline we walk in. And when we make these exchanges, we become what Isaiah calls oaks of righteousness. Rooted. Steady. Rebuilding. Oaks don't just feel different, they live different. Whatever weight you're carrying, this message is for you. Heaven wins, and God wants to make that exchange with you today.   Scripture references: Isaiah 61:1-3 Luke 4:21 Genesis 3   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  The Eternity Series Pt 2 | Pastor Alvin III 28.04.2026 35мин

  In this message titled Don’t Underestimate the Process, Pastor Alvin reminds us that following Jesus isn’t just about where we’re going, it’s about how we get there. Through passages like John 10:4-5 and 1 Corinthians 3:10-15, we see that both God and the enemy may point to similar outcomes, but the difference is always in the process. God’s way leads through obedience, humility, and trust. The enemy’s way often shortcuts what God has said, pushing us toward disobedience and immediate gratification. This message challenges us to look deeper than what’s visible. Are we building our lives on what people see, or on what God sees? Because in the end, everything will be tested, and only what’s built on the right foundation will remain. Don’t ignore the process. Don’t harden your heart. What you build today is shaping what lasts forever.   Scripture references: John 10:4-5 1 Corinthians 3:10-15   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

  The Eternity Series Pt I | Pastor Alvin III 21.04.2026 39мин

  In the first installment of the series on eternity, Pastor Alvin walks through the story of the rich man and Lazarus to challenge how we view success, comfort, and eternity. Through this passage, Jesus confronts us with a sobering truth. What we experience now is not the full picture. Life on earth is temporary, but eternity is not. This message challenges us to examine our hearts, stay hungry for what’s beyond this life, and make decisions that last forever.

  Now or Later | Pastor Alvin III 13.04.2026 38мин

  In this message titled Now or Later, Pastor Alvin unpacks the tension between living for what we can receive now and what God has promised later. Jesus makes it clear that both are available, but we don’t get both. This message challenges us to examine our motives, trust that God is a rewarder, and choose what lasts over what’s immediate. Because what God has prepared for you will always be worth the wait.
