Glorious Way Church

In this Sunday night message, Pastor John delivers a deeply personal and faith-building word on "Courage at Crunch Time," drawn from John 16:33 and the story of Joshua stepping into leadership after Moses. Using his own raw, behind-the-scenes account of navigating church betrayal, losing a lease, and receiving a supernatural word from God in the middle of the night, he unpacks what it truly looks like to stand firm when everything around you is falling apart. His three practical keys are straightforward: stop listening to your flesh, stop listening to your reasonings, and instead anchor yourself to the spoken word of God and the witness of the Holy Spirit. The message is a reminder that crunch time is not a sign you missed God; it is often where God does his most defining work in you.

In this Mother's Day message, Pastor John continues his series on healing as a covenant right, diving into the source of sickness and what the Bible says about it. Drawing from Luke 13, Galatians 3, and 1 Corinthians 11, he makes the case that sickness originates with the devil, not God, and that believers are not sick people trying to get healed but healthy people resisting disease. He unpacks three key facts about the curse of sickness, challenges the idea that God uses illness to teach lessons, and closes with a sobering look at communion and self-examination, warning that receiving it carelessly can open the door to weakness and premature death. The takeaway is clear: know your covenant, walk in love, and choose life.

In this powerful Wednesday night message, Pastor John dives into "The Antidote for Lack," a practical, faith-filled guide for anyone who's ever felt financially cornered. Drawing from Deuteronomy 8 and Matthew 28, he unpacks four key principles: obeying God (especially in tithing), counting your blessings and taking honest inventory of what you have, being willing to give even under pressure, and trusting God to reveal hidden riches and open unexpected doors. All pointing to one truth: your breakthrough often begins the moment you refuse to let lack have the last word.

Pastor John focuses to the practical side of healing, breaking down the many different ways God has made His healing power available to believers. Drawing from James 5 and key New Testament passages, he explains why there's a big difference between praying for someone and praying over them, and why believers never need to beg God for what He's already provided. From anointing with oil, to laying on of hands, to the gifts of the Spirit, to intercession, to the raw power of the corporate anointing in a church service, Pastor John walks through each avenue with real-life stories that bring the teaching to life, including a dramatic hospital room encounter with his own aunt and a remarkable testimony about a man pulled back from the brink of death by persistent intercession in a hospital hallway. He also addresses those tender moments when someone goes to heaven despite everyone's best efforts, offering a perspective rooted in peace rather than defeat. If you've ever wondered why prayer for healing doesn't always look the same, this is the episode for you.

In this faith-filled message, Pastor John dives into the first installment of his series Healing: Our Covenant Right, making the case that physical healing isn't just a hope for believers, it's a purchased, guaranteed right under the New Covenant. Drawing from Matthew 8, 1 Peter 2, and Isaiah 53, he unpacks how Jesus literally bore our sicknesses and infirmities on the cross, meaning healing is already done, past tense. Pastor John challenges the congregation to stop seeing themselves as sick people trying to get healed, and start seeing themselves as healed people resisting sickness.

In this Wednesday night message, Pastor John pulls from Hebrews chapter 3 to lay out what it really means to let Jesus build you. Drawing on his 25 years as a home builder, he connects the construction process to how God works in our lives, clearing out the mess, laying the foundation, and adding structure over time. He walks through five keys to cooperating with that process, keeping a soft heart, banishing unbelief, staying connected to people who will speak truth into your life, resting in genuine faith, and holding fast to your confession. The bottom line is simple: Jesus is still building, and the question is whether we are going to let him.
