“Not Today, Pastor Pushy” (Acts 19:1–7)
Ever been told you’re “not spiritual enough”?
That you just need to feel it more, cry harder, or speak in tongues to prove you’ve got the Holy Spirit?
Yeah… same.
This week’s message by Pastor Frank is about what it really means to be baptized in the name of Jesus—
and how the Holy Spirit isn’t something you earn by emotional gymnastics.
💧 It’s not a performance. It’s a promise.
🍞 It’s not hype. It’s grace.
🔥 If you're baptized, you already have the Spirit.
Mic drop quotes:
“The gifts of the Holy Spirit aren’t a merit badge.”
“You don’t need to fake it or chase it. Just rest in it.”
“Baptism tells you who you are. Communion reminds you Whose you are.”
“The Spirit doesn’t beg you to perform; He helps you love.”
You don’t have to be the complete discipleship package — you just have to do your part. That’s how God’s been building His Church since day one: imperfect people passing on perfect grace.
💬 “God’s been running His Church on unqualified people since day one.”
💬 “If we make it all about us, we’ll stay stuck on the cliff talking about gravity.”
💬 “When we stop making faith about ourselves and start helping someone else — boom! — all the courage we need shows up.”
Watch the full message and see why discipleship isn’t a program — it’s a chain reaction.
You're always welcome

Ever noticed how many people have been walking away from church? Pastors. Musicians. Friends. Maybe even your kids. Maybe even you.
Here’s the truth—people don’t usually leave because they stopped believing. They leave because they’ve been hurt.
By hypocrisy. By spiritual abuse. By a version of Christianity that forgot the Gospel isn’t “try harder”… it’s “It is finished.”
This week’s message is for the wounded and the ones who want to help—
its and answer for those who’ve been hurt by the church,
and those of us who need to repent for how we’ve misrepresented Jesus.
💔 There’s still hope.
✝️ Jesus is still gentle and lowly in heart.
🔥 And His grace is still strong enough to heal what religion broke.
"Don’t confuse the failure of Christians with the failure of Christ."
