Kicking off our new series Momentum, Pastor Joe Donahue teaches that real transformation starts with small, Spirit-led wins. Using Acts 1 and a muddy Tennessee childhood story, he illustrates how personal momentum builds not through pushing harder, but by faithfully waiting on God. This message is for anyone feeling stuck and searching for a way forward through God’s power, not their own effort.
In this message from Lead Pastor Joe Donahue, we explore the moment Jesus ascended to Heaven and what it means for believers today. Pastor Joe reminds us that the only way we come to faith is because God opens our minds to understand Scripture—and that understanding leads to transformation. A life that’s been forgiven looks different, speaks differently, and blesses others like Jesus did.
In part two of Momentum, Pastor Joe takes us back to Acts 1 and a wild childhood memory to remind us that transformation comes through surrender. True momentum in our faith starts when we give up control and fully embrace God’s mission for our lives. Through powerful teaching and heartfelt stories, you'll be challenged to live with purpose, love boldly, and pray intentionally.
