In the 2008 Olympics, the fastest team didn’t win the 4x100 relay—not because they lacked speed, but because they failed to hand off the baton. The race was lost in the exchange.

 

In this message, Pastor Mike Lane challenges us to think about the handoff in our own lives. Are we preparing the next generation to run their race well? Are we running our own without comparison or distraction? This message is a call to run faithfully—and to pass the baton with purpose.

Be encouraged to seek God beyond Sunday as Pastor David McGregor challenges us to remove the obstacles that keep us from pursuing Him. Life’s worries, routines, and distractions can easily crowd out our hunger for more of Jesus—but seeking doesn’t just happen in solitude. Sometimes, seeking God means showing up, serving others, and living with intentionality. In this message, you’ll be reminded that when we prioritize seeking—through prayer, through worship, and through loving people—God is faithful to meet us and provide everything we need.

In this week’s message, Pastor Randy challenges us to stop pretending we’re on fire for God when we’re really just coasting on embers. Drawing from Elijah’s confrontation with the prophets of Baal in 1 Kings 18 and Jesus’ words in John 15, we’re reminded that true fire isn’t a feeling—it’s a consuming, purifying presence. Before we can be filled, we have to be emptied. Before the rain comes, the altar must be repaired. This is a call to slow down, face the spiritual scoreboard, and seek the kind of fire that actually sustains.

In this powerful and personal Father’s Day message, Pastor Randy unpacks the story of Gideon in Judges 6 and calls every man to rise up as a Man of Valor.

 

With honesty, humor, and vulnerability, this message speaks directly to the heart of men who feel overlooked, unqualified, or worn down by the pressures of modern life. You’ll hear how God meets us in our weakness, how our culture is suppressing healthy masculinity, and why it’s time for men to stop hiding and start stepping into their God-given identity.

 

Whether you’re a dad, a husband, or simply a man trying to follow Jesus—this message is for you. (And ladies, there’s encouragement here for you too.)

At Everyday Church, we’re passionate about raising up the next generation—and that means putting the mic in their hands, not just talking about them. This week, Josiah Schwab—a 20-something young adult with a deep love for God’s Word—brings a powerful message from John 15.

 

In the second week of our Summer of Seeking series, Josiah challenges us to move beyond surface-level spirituality and into a deliberate, fruit-bearing relationship with Jesus. With honesty, biblical depth, and personal vulnerability, he walks us through what it really means to abide in the Vine—to cut off the things that are choking your soul and cling tightly to the One who gives life.

 

Whether you’re in a dry season or just hungry for more, this message will stir your spirit and remind you: fruit doesn’t come from trying harder, it comes from staying closer.

Summer often disrupts our routines—kids are out of school, vacations pick up, and spiritual rhythms fade. But what if we didn’t wait for fall to reset our walk with God?

 

In this kickoff message to 'Summer of Seeking', Pastor Randy challenges us to use the slower pace of summer to rekindle our spiritual fire. Drawing from Philippians 3, 2 Timothy 1, and Mark 11, he unpacks how authenticity, humility, and honesty are essential to true revival. This episode is a bold call to stop faking it, face the scoreboard, and fan into flame the gift of God within us. 🔥

In this final installment of our Generosity series, we shift from Old Covenant requirements to New Covenant posture. What does giving look like under grace, not law? We explore 2 Corinthians 9 and the principle of “firstfruits” as an act of faith, identity, and intentionality—not just obligation. This episode challenges us to move beyond fear- or greed-based giving and embrace cheerful, Spirit-led generosity that reflects the heart of God.

 

From Sunday 05.18.25

In this pivotal message, Pastor Randy unpacks the biblical context of tithing under the Old Covenant. From Mosaic law to Malachi’s rebuke, this teaching clarifies what the “whole tithe” really meant—more than just 10%, and far more complex than we’ve often been told.

 

We explore how the tithe functioned as national support, community celebration, and local care for the poor. Pastor Randy also addresses the misinterpretation of Malachi 3 and reminds us that biblical generosity was never meant to be driven by fear or guilt.

 

This message may challenge your assumptions—but it’s rooted in covenant clarity, not controversy.

 

From Sunday 05.11.25

In this message, we dive into one of the most debated and misunderstood topics in the church: the tithe. Is tithing still required? Was Malachi 3 written for us—or just to ancient Israel? What if giving is meant to be a response to grace, not a religious requirement?

 

Pastor Randy walks through the covenants, breaks down the types of Old Testament law, and offers biblical context for a conversation that’s often driven by fear or tradition. Whether you’ve tithed your whole life or never really understood the “10% rule,” this episode invites you into a grace-filled, Scripture-rooted look at generosity.

Hey everybody, thanks for tuning in to this week’s message from Everyday Church!

We’re picking up where we left off, walking through the difference between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant — and why it matters way more than you might think.

Today we’re talking about what happens when we try to mix the two, and why Jesus’ New Covenant is so much better.

It’s not just head knowledge — it’s about living free, living full, and living the way God intended.
