When Giving Feels Like Losing :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

What do you do when giving—your time, money, or energy—feels more like losing than gaining?
In this message, When Giving Feels Like Losing, Pastor Alvin walks through a familiar tension many of us face: the fear that if we give too much, we won’t have enough left for ourselves.
Whether it’s generosity, obedience, or simply trusting God with what matters most, it’s easy to wonder if it’s really worth it. Out of Malachi 3, Pastor Alvin brings that question to the surface, and offers a surprising response of neither guilt nor pressure. 
It’s about learning to see that God isn’t after things. He’s after our hearts. And when we trust Him, especially when it feels risky, we start to discover something deeper and more life-giving than we could ever expect and imagine.
If you’ve ever felt like giving might leave you empty, hit play. This one’s for you.

When the Best Is Still Ahead :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

Ever feel like your life story was supposed to look and read better than it does?
You’re working hard, trying to move forward, doing what you can to get it right, but still, something feels off. Like you’re missing something, or like the best parts of your life story already passed you by.
That’s exactly where God’s people found themselves in the book of Haggai. They had returned from exile and were trying to rebuild, but nothing felt the same. They were tired, discouraged, and wondering if God was still with them, or if their best days were already behind them.
In this message, Pastor Alvin Brown walks us through Haggai 2 to show how God meets us right there, in the middle of our questions and disappointment, not with shame, but with a promise to use our story for His glory.
 
Whether you’re following Jesus or just trying to figure faith out, this message is a reminder that what you see right now isn’t the whole story. God is still working. He’s still building. And He’s still writing something beautiful, right in the middle of your life story.
Hit play, and let’s lean in together to remember that with God, the best isn’t behind you, it’s still ahead.

When God Doesn’t Make Sense :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

Ever felt like life just isn’t adding up?
You’ve been praying, trusting, or doing everything you know to do, but God still feels distant or silent. If that sounds familiar, you’re not the only one.
In this message, When God Doesn’t Make Sense, we look at the honest, unfiltered questions of a prophet named Habakkuk. He doesn’t pretend to have it all together. He wrestles with God and invites us to do the same.  And guess what else? God doesn’t shut him or us down.
Through Habakkuk’s story, we’re reminded that it’s okay to bring our questions, our disappointments, and our doubts to God. He may not always give us the answers we’re looking for, but He does give us Himself, the answer we need most.
So if you’re feeling confused, worn out, or just wondering where God is in the mess of it all, this one’s for you.
Hit play, and let’s walk through it together.

When Presence Goes Missing :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

What do you do when God feels far, when His presence feels out of reach, and you’re just going through the motions?
In this message, When Presence Goes Missing, Pastor Alvin Brown walks through the book of Zechariah to remind us that God’s presence isn’t something we strive to earn.  It’s something we’re invited to return to.
If you’ve drifted, feel spiritually numb, or just know something’s missing, this message gets to the heart of it. God doesn’t call us back with guilt or pressure to perform.  He simply says, “Come.” Not to do more, but to draw near.
Because the fix for a missing presence isn’t more effort. Hit play and discover how to become present with God, again.
So whether you’re trying to rebuild your faith or still figuring out what you believe, there’s something here for you.

When Justice Gets Personal :: Return to Me :: Bria Lacour

What does God really want from our worship?
And what happens when our songs, prayers, or church attendance don’t line up with how we treat people?
In this message, When Justice Gets Personal, from the book of Amos, Bria Lacour helps us all to confront a hard truth: God cares more about how we live than how we perform religiously. 
Through the prophet Amos, we see that real worship leads to justice, integrity, and love for others, especially those often ignored or mistreated.
Whether you’ve been in church your whole life or you’re just starting to ask big questions, this message invites you to wrestle with how personal justice really is. 
It's not just a societal issue but a spiritual one that starts with us.

The Mystery of a Life Changed :: Over Every Power :: Alvin Brown :: Austin

Why does living a good, meaningful life feel so hard sometimes?
And what does it even mean to be holy?
Is that just for super-religious people, or is it something real for the rest of us?
In this message, Pastor Alvin Brown walks through Colossians 1:21–27 and reminds us that holiness isn’t about being perfect or pretending we’ve got it all together. It’s about being made whole, belonging to God and living from that place.
If you’ve ever felt empty, stuck in cycles you can’t break, or just unsure what real change looks like, you’re not alone, and this is for you.
Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years or you’re still figuring it out, this message points to a deeper hope found in three simple but powerful truths.
Because the real change we’re looking for? It doesn’t start with trying harder. 
Hit play and find out what just might be the answer you’ve been searching for all along.

When Mercy Confronts You :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

What if the hard stuff you’re going through isn’t random, but actually God trying to get your attention?
In When Mercy Confronts You, Pastor Alvin Brown teaches from the powerful message of the prophet Joel, showing how God’s mercy doesn’t always show up as comfort, but sometimes, it comes as a much-needed wake-up call in the form of confrontation.
Maybe life feels heavy right now. Maybe things are unraveling, or just quietly wearing you down. 
What if, in all of that, God is confronting what’s been slowly pulling you away from Him, not to shame you, but to bring you back?
Whether you feel far from God or you're just trying to figure out what He’s up to in your life, this message is an honest invitation to return to Him. Not out of fear. Not with guilt. But with the hope that His mercy is still wide open.
 
Because when staying numb to the hard stuff just doesn’t work anymore, Joel reminds us it’s not too late to come back.
 
Hit play and confront the fact that God’s not waiting to punish you. He’s waiting to restore you.

When Love Won’t Let Go :: Return to Me :: Alvin Brown

Have you ever poured your heart into someone, only to feel forgotten or rejected? 
That ache isn’t just human, it’s in the heart of God, too.
In this week’s message, we kick off Return to Me: The Heart of God Through the Minor Prophets with a look at Hosea 11, where God opens His heart and wrestles with love, grief, and mercy toward people who keep walking away.
But instead of giving up, He stays. He loves. He redeems.
Whether you’re close to God, far from Him, or unsure where you stand, this message is for anyone who’s ever felt like they’ve gone too far, messed up too much, or just can’t seem to get it right.
Because no matter where you’ve been, God’s love doesn’t let go.

Connected But Drained :: Alvin Brown

Ever feel like you’re always “on” but still running on empty? You’re not the only one.
We live in a hyper-connected world—scrolling through feeds, streaming nonstop, chasing success, or just trying to make it through the day. But not every connection brings life. Some leave us anxious, worn out, and spiritually dry.
In this message from John 15, we’re taking a clear-eyed look at what (and who) we’re really connected to. Jesus isn’t just offering advice—He’s inviting us into a connection that doesn’t drain us but fills us with real life.
Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years or aren’t sure what you believe, this is an honest look at the things we turn to for meaning and why they often leave us empty. 
More importantly, it’s about the one connection that never will.
If you're tired of feeling spiritually drained, this one's for you. Hit play and discover the connection that brings lasting life.
