Crazy Love Conference 2026 || Day 1 Evening || Satan's Best Kept Secret- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Satan has many secrets he would rather we didn’t know, worst of them all is the truth that you can be religious yet not have a relationship with Jesus. In this first session of CLC 2026, Pastor Kenneth shows us what Biblical faith is, what it is to believe in the Gospel. Listen and be edified!

Align: Preparing for a Special Meeting- Pst. Mercy Johnson
We must understand how to prepare ourselves for special meetings and how to participate with the right understanding and expectation. The Vivified Church’s hallmark event, Crazy Love Conference, is happening from 16th to 18th October, and as we look forward to all that God has in store for us, we...
-
Abide: Practicing the Presence of God- Pst. Mercy Johnson
The pace of life can be relentless. There is always something demanding our attention, another responsibility to attend to, another place we need to be. Yet, in the midst of it all, God calls us to abide in Him. So, how do we actually live this out? How do we develop a life of abiding despite the...

Special Sunday Service: Come, Follow Me- Dylan Vermeulen
In Jesus' instruction, we see a call to be His disciples, like an apprenticeship. Discipleship means we're covered in the dust of our Rabbi; so close that others can tell we've been with Jesus. In this journey, we will: be with Jesus, become like Jesus and do what Jesus did. In what areas can you...
-
Special Midweek Service- Dylan Vermeulen
You were made on purpose, for a purpose. But the enemy knows it, and he will try to steal it or distract you from it. In this teaching, Dylan Vermeulen from Well of Life Church, Dubai, uses the life of Joseph as a case study to show what it looks like to hold on to God's purpose, even when the…

When In Rome: God Potter and the Order of Clay 2- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
In this teaching, we continue our journey through Romans 9, picking up from verses 17–29! How do we understand God’s sovereignty, His mercy, and His justice? Listen as we explore the important questions Paul addresses in this passage.
-
When In Rome: God Potter and the Order of Clay- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
What happens when we come face to face with the sovereignty of God? Romans 9 takes us into some of the weightiest questions about God’s purposes, His mercy, His sovereignty, and His dealings with humanity. And no, this isn’t Hogwarts, but there is a Potter involved.
-
Rock Solid- Pst. Mercy Akogwu
God is faithful, and His faithfulness gives us reason to trust Him even when we cannot yet see how His promises will unfold. He calls us to a faith that is steadfast and resilient, one that is not shaken by changing circumstances but remains anchored in who He is.
-
When In Rome: More Than Conquerors- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
There is a confidence that comes from knowing that God is for you. Romans 8 ends with this glorious assurance. We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us, and nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.
-
When In Rome: All Things Work Together- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
What do we do when what we are experiencing now does not look like what God has promised? Romans 8:18–30 points us to the glory that is still to come. Paul acknowledges the groaning of creation and our own longing, whilst reminding us that our present reality is not the end of the story. And…

When In Rome: No Condemnation- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
“There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” Paul opens Romans 8 with this powerful declaration and goes on to unpack what it means to be in Christ: free from condemnation, no longer bound to the...
-
When in Rome: War Within Everyday(W.W.E)- Pst Kenneth Olusanya
ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE?! Because this fight has been going on for a while. In fact, it feels like it’s round 100,670… and you’re still fighting. The battle between the life God has called us to and the pull of the flesh. Between wanting to do what is right and somehow finding ourselves doing the...
-
When In Rome: No Longer Slaves- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Who or what do you offer yourself to? Paul presents us with a sobering reality: we become slaves to whatever we continually yield ourselves to. We can offer ourselves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness. But there is good news: in Christ, we have been set...
-
When In Rome: Under New Management- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
After hearing the wonderful news of being justified by faith, Paul anticipates the questions that may arise: “What are you saying then? Can we continue in sin?” In Romans 6, Paul gives a resounding answer. We have been given a new life and are no longer slaves to sin. Instead, we are now called…
more -
When In Rome: The Adams Family- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
The second part of Romans 5 from verses 12 to 21 introduces us to two Adams: one through whom sin and death entered the world, and another through whom came righteousness and life. We see the contrast between these two representatives and how it culminates in a beautiful story of redemption.
-
When In Rome: Open Sesame- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Having been justified by faith, we now have access to God. What a wonderful reality and something we could never have earned ourselves. In Romans 5:1–11, Paul shows us the depth of God’s love towards us: a love demonstrated through Christ, giving us access to God and a hope that does not...
-
Awake: Sixth Sense- Discernment by the Spirit
Times and seasons of prayer are invaluable, and we see this in the life of our Example, Christ Jesus. Our Lord would often spend the night in prayer and communion with His Father, especially before significant decisions. As believers and children of God, we are called to cultivate this same…

When In Rome: Abe and Dave- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness. David spoke of the blessedness of the one whose sins are forgiven and whom the Lord does not count guilty. Romans 4 unpacks the beautiful truth of righteousness received by faith.
-
When In Rome: But Now- Pst. Mercy Johnson
Up until this point, everything has seemed dire: all have sinned, and all are guilty. But in the concluding part of Romans 3, Paul brings us to a turning point. What seemed like the end of the story because of our sin becomes the beginning of the good news: we can be freely justified by His grace...
-
When In Rome: Guilty As Charged- Pst Mercy Johnson
Paul brings us to a climax in Chapter 3: every person is guilty as charged before God; no one is righteous. We continue our study of the book of Romans in this teaching "Guilty As Charged" where we study Romans 3:1-20. The law exposes the depth of our sin, but it cannot justify us or make us...
-
When In Rome: Judge and Jewry- Chiazam Dim
Self-righteousness. Hypocrisy. The “better than others” syndrome. The Jewish people were full of it. In Chapter 1, Paul confronts the Gentiles and their rejection of God. But in Chapter 2, the mirror turns. Now, Paul addresses the Jews, those who knew the Law, judged others, and yet failed to see...
-
When In Rome: No Excuses- Pst Kenneth Olusanya
A sincere contemplation of all that God has made leaves humanity without excuse. The beauty and order of creation itself bear undeniable witness to His existence. Romans 1:18-32 reveals the sobering consequences of suppressing the truth about God and exchanging His truth for a lie, turning away...
-
When In Rome: Dauntless- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Romans is such a rich book, one many of us love, but how many of us have actually taken the time to carefully go through it? In our new teaching series "When In Rome", we would be extensively going through the book of Romans. In this teaching, we begin our journey through Romans in Romans 1:1-17....
-
Fortitude: Rhythms of Hope- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
Hope is a powerful thing. It gives weary hearts the strength to endure, lifts our eyes beyond today's circumstances, and reminds us that God is still at work, even when we cannot yet see the full picture.
-
Fortitude: Brewing Communi-tea- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Our backgrounds and experience largely influence our idea of what doing life with people looks like. As believers, we are saved into God’s family and not as lone rangers. Therefore, we must learn to look to the word of God and his idea of community, above our perceptions and experiences.
-
Fortitude: Endurant- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Life is tough, and we all feel the pressure. Many of us have learned to cope by ranting, complaining, and murmuring—but those habits don't produce endurance in the life of a believer. What if there's a better response?
-
Fortitude: Weak 7 Days Q & A- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Week after week, adulthood demands more of us. But God hasn't called you to simply survive; He has called you to thrive. Listen to this teaching in our Fortitude series and learn how to thrive.
-

Audacity Conference 2026: The Goodness of God
What if God had to stand trial? In this session, the goodness of God is thoroughly questioned and investigated on charges made by skeptics and even believers against Him. Case by case, we uncover how much of what we think we know about God is really a misreading of His Word, and walk away with a...
-
Audacity Conference 2026: The Reason for Reason
Is faith the enemy of logic or its foundation? In this session, Pastor Ken digs into the ancient question of how belief, reason, and science fit together, and why "just have faith" was never meant to mean "stop thinking." Drawing on Scripture, logic, and hard evidence, this is a sermon for the...
-
Fortitude: Kavod- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
Great moves of God are rarely stumbled into. They are often preceded by intentional preparation. This is a special service on the posture and preparation required for weighty encounters with God. Listen and learn all about reverence for God and His glory.
-
Fortitude: You Are Not Enough- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Many believers are almost breaking under the weight of life's pressures because they're trying to carry it all by themselves. But God never designed us to do life alone. In this episode, Pastor Kenneth contrasts the world’s message with the truth of God’s Word, reminding us that true strength is...
-
Fortitude: Thinky and the Brain- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Overthinking has no place in the life God has designed for the believer. Rather than being consumed by every conceivable possibility, we are called to commit every care into His hands, confident in His unfailing faithfulness.
-
Thanksgiving Service: The Oil of Gladness- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Joy isn’t something you strive to create, it’s an inheritance you receive in God’s presence. Like oil, it doesn’t fade under pressure; it remains. This teaching explores how the oil of gladness heals, strengthens, and sustains us, the thieves that try to steal our joy, and how thanksgiving…

-
Asking For A Friend: Dream World- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
Dreams are one of the most mysterious parts of our lives. Many of us have questions we've never really had answers to. What do dreams mean? Can they actually be interpreted? Is the Lord speaking to me through my dreams? In this teaching, we'll be learning all about dreams. If you've ever been...
-
Asking For A Friend: Handheld; Handling Grief and Loss- Pst Kenneth Olusanya
Few experiences are as painful as losing someone you love. How do you trust God in the midst of loss? How do you comfort someone who is grieving? What do you say, and how do you simply be present when words seem inadequate? As the body of Christ, we are called to be people of love, comfort, and...
-
Asking For A Friend: Orthodoxy- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
In this episode, we vigorously refute the narrative that Christianity is a “white man’s religion”. We also answer other questions like: What characterized the early church? Was the canon inspired by God or chosen by men? Why do creeds matter? Do church councils carry authority? And what place...
-
Asking For A Friend: AI and the Church- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
With the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come a host of questions and concerns that the Church cannot ignore. What are the limits of AI in the Church? Is it morally sound to use AI for Bible study or to create ministry content? Should we embrace AI, be wary of it, or reject it altogether?
-
Asking For A Friend: Abortion; Pro-Life or Pro-Choice- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
This Sunday, we will be tackling yet another salient question: Abortion: pro-life or pro-choice? When does life begin? How do we balance bodily autonomy and the sanctity of life? In a world of strong opinions, what does God's Word say? Listen and build solid convictions as we search the…
more -
Asking For A Friend: Parenting; Rod or Refuge?- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
What does healthy discipline actually look like in parenting? Some of us grew up being punished severely, and it left wounds that lasted long after childhood. The conversation is not simply whether children should be disciplined, but what discipline should look like in a way that mirrors the love...
-
Asking For A Friend: How Far is too Far in Marriage- Pst. Kenneth Olusanya
There are questions about marriage that many people carry, but don’t always know how to voice. Questions around love, responsibility, priorities, and what marriage represents beyond the familiar ideas people grow up with. Listen and be informed as we engage some of these questions in light of...
-

Our "Asking for a Friend" teaching series is here! We are starting off this teaching series with a teaching on The Trinity. Christianity is monotheistic, yet we speak of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. How does that work? If Jesus is God, who was He praying to? Why doesn’t the word “Trinity”...

-
Incense: Overflow- Pst. Daniel Olusegun
The life we have received in Christ isn't to be confined to the four walls of the church; it's meant to overflow into this world. Christianity was never meant to be hidden or reduced to a Sunday experience alone. Listen and learn how to let the life of Christ overflow in every area of our lives.
-
Incense: Duty to Delight- Pst. Chisom Olusanya

Incense: Awestruck- Pst. Chisom Olusanya
God deserves more than routine admiration. He deserves soul-stirring awe. The kind that overwhelms you with wonder and reminds you that He is glorious beyond words. The kind that stops you in your tracks and brings you to your knees. Believer, have you lost your wonder? Listen and let the Lord...
-
