Healing From Sin
This session covers three dimensions of sin — sin done by us, sin done to us, and sin done around us — and explores four layers of sin we move through in our healing: gross sins, conscious sins, unconscious sins, and attachments. Finally, the session covers our part in healing, the practice of confession.
Session Exercise
Confession
The practice of naming your sin to another person is what the writers
of the Bible call “confession.” When we name our sin or shame or secret with a trusted person, we can experience healing.
Meeting God in Pain and Suffering
The Practices can expose pain as our soul begins to process and discharge suffering. This session explores the three primary ways people deal with pain (deny, detach, or drug), how unhealed pain sabotages transformation, and how God can meet us in pain to bring lasting change.
Session Exercise
Noticing and naming your emotions
This session’s spiritual exercise is a simple template for prayer designed to notice and name your feelings and offer them to God in prayer.

Sabbath
Set aside a few hours after church or early on a Saturday to embrace the four movements of Sabbath: stop, rest, delight, and worship.
We may desire to become more like Jesus, but feel stuck.
The problem is that we don’t know how to become like Jesus.
We need a training program — a reliable pathway to transformation.
We find this in the Way of Jesus, where we are formed by:
-The Practices
-Community
-Teaching
-The Holy Spirit
Formation happens over time and through suffering.
And one of the best ways to begin to change is to replace an unhealthy habit with the practice of reading Scripture daily.
Spiritual formation isn’t a Christian thing; it’s a human thing.
We are formed by a complex web of forces, but especially by:
-Habits Relationships
-The stories we believe
-Environment Time
-Experience.
Most of our formation is unintentional.
Some of the most important questions to reflect on are:
-Who am I becoming?
-Am I being intentional about who I am becoming?
-One of the best ways to do this is through a Formation Audit.
Our September 2025 Committed Gathering at King’s River Worship Center.
Pastor Brad Joseph felt that someone in the crowd needed to come to KNOW Jesus & not just KNOW ABOUT Jesus. The Spirit moved & created a rumbling in the spirit. A shifting of hearts.
Following Jesus is based on the first-century practice of rabbis and apprentices.
Today, to follow Jesus means to apprentice under him.
To apprentice under Jesus is to organize your life around three driving goals:
- Be with Jesus
- Become like Jesus
- Do as he did
Apprenticing under Jesus means practicing a way of life.
One of the best ways to begin is through a daily prayer rhythm, where you create a time and place for solitude, silence, and prayer.
We take a minute to slow down before we start our three month session of practicing the way by John Mark Comer.
In the middle of the parking lot of WINFIELD HIGH SCHOOL, we met to praise our living, King! Vulnerability, Honesty, and transparency, were on full effect! We shared, we cried, and we changed, lives with one another!
Take some time to slow down, and being prayer as you listen to this episode!
Be Generous to the Poor
Concern for the poor holds a prominent place in God’s heart. Apprentices of Jesus reflect this priority by coming alongside those in need, creating a new kind of family.
Exercise: Be generous to the poor.
Our exercise for this week is to share your resources with someone in need. You can give to an organization doing good work serving the poor, either globally or locally. Or you can give to someone you know in need in your relational circle.
Reach Exercise: Give not just your money but your time.
When you see a need, step in to meet it—whether by serving dinner at a local rescue mission, mowing a neighbor's lawn, mentoring a child, or sharing a meal with someone on the margins—because every act of kindness is a way to express the love of Jesus and build kinship in God's family.
This week is about rethinking ownership. What if nothing we have is really ours—but God’s? Through Scripture and discussion, we’ll explore what it looks like to be faithful stewards of what God has entrusted to us. It’s a powerful shift that can lead to peace, purpose, and a deeper dependence on Him.
Greed is sneaky. It masks itself as security, success, and even responsibility. This week we’ll unpack what Jesus had to say about greed and how it shapes our hearts and habits. Together, we’ll learn how to identify it, confront it, and walk in the freedom that comes from living open-handed.
“There Is More Joy in Giving”
We’re kicking off the Generosity Practice by digging into the words of Jesus: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” We’ll explore how generosity brings joy, loosens the grip of materialism, and draws us closer to the heart of God. Come ready for real conversations, a meaningful challenge, and a call to live generously.
In this powerful message, John Klassen challenges us with a question that cuts deep: “Is there room at your table?”
Rooted in passages like Luke 14:12–14, Mark 15:15–17, and the story of Zacchaeus in Luke 19, this sermon explores how Jesus used meals not just to feed, but to transform. The dinner table becomes a mini altar—a sacred space where outsiders become family and the rejected find restoration.
John reminds us that gossip, judgment, and cliquish comfort zones won’t lead anyone to repentance. But an open seat at the table? That just might. With eternity hanging in the balance, every conversation, every invitation, carries the weight of heaven and hell.
Who’s missing from your table?
The one who hurt you?
The one you avoid?
The one you think doesn’t belong?
This episode will convict you, stretch you, and hopefully move you to make room—for the sake of someone’s eternity.
In this week’s guy’s night, we dive deep into what true character really means — not just reputation, but the kind of inner life God is forming in us. Anchored in Exodus 34:6–7, we see how God first reveals His character — full of compassion, grace, patience, and truth — and how we’re called to reflect that same heart in a world full of shortcuts and compromise.
Through Romans 5:4, we’re reminded that character is forged in the fire of endurance. In Ephesians 3:14–19, we’re challenged to let our roots grow deep into Christ’s love. And in Matthew 12:33–37, we’re reminded that what’s in us will come out — our words, our actions, and our fruit all reveal who we really are.
Want to go deeper this week? Spend time with these verses:
📖 Romans 8:6
📖 Proverbs 3:5–6
📖 Romans 12:1–2
This isn’t about behavior modification — it’s about becoming the kind of man who reflects the character of Jesus from the inside out.
Lately, we’ve all been quoting this verse: “Count it all joy.” Whether it’s been during incredible moments—or while dealing with a flat tire—we’ve said it, posted it, and prayed it. But what does James really mean when he says, “Count it all joy when you face trials…”?
In this episode, Matthew Wright takes a deeper dive into James 1:2–4 and unpacks the real context behind the scripture. Is it just for hard times? Are we supposed to count everything joy—even the annoying, frustrating, or heartbreaking stuff? What does Jesus say about this kind of mindset?
We’ll talk about how joy isn’t about ignoring reality—it’s about shifting your perspective to see what God is producing in you through it. We’ll also look at how Jesus Himself endured the cross “for the joy set before Him” and how we can apply that same lens to our lives today.
Whether you’re in a trial or just trying to grow through the ordinary chaos of life, this episode will challenge and encourage you to live with deep-rooted, Spirit-filled joy—even when it’s not easy.
🎧 Listen now and be reminded: God’s not just getting you through—He’s growing you through.

In this episode, Pastor Paul Boggess shares a powerful and timely word titled “Rooted & Grounded in Love.” Using the story from Matthew 17, where a boy continually falls into the fire and water due to epilepsy, Pastor Paul draws a deep parallel between the boy’s condition and the cycles many of us find ourselves stuck in.
He reminds us that real freedom and breakthrough don’t come through effort alone—but by becoming rooted in the love of the Father. It’s in that love where we find healing, identity, and lasting transformation. If you’ve felt like you keep stumbling back into the same battles, this message offers the clarity and hope you’ve been needing.
In this episode of Guy’s Night, Nick Gallo and Britton Hudson lead us through a powerful tag-team message diving deep into the heart of God’s love.
Nick breaks down the question, “Why does God love us?” through the story of Hosea, showing that God’s love is steadfast, redeeming, and without conditions. Then Britton tackles the question, “How much does God love you?” with Scripture showing that God’s love is everlasting, costly, and personal — the kind of love that would be poured out even for just one.
Whether you’ve doubted your worth or felt like you had to earn God’s love, this message will remind you that Kingdom love isn’t transactional — it’s transformational.
In this episode of Guys Night, we dive into the powerful truth of Romans 12:1–2 and unpack what it really looks like to respond to the sovereignty of God. Pastor Daven Wall leads us in a conversation about living as a spiritual act of worship—not just in moments labeled “spiritual,” but through our entire physical and relational lives.
We explore the idea that our bodies aren’t separate from our worship—they’re instruments through which we serve God. We discuss what it means to stop separating the spiritual from the physical, and how true transformation begins by renewing the mind through continual contemplation and surrender.
From understanding identity in Christ, to walking out spiritual disciplines like confession, fasting, and reflection—this episode is an invitation to deeper recognition that you’re already made in the image of God. Transformation isn’t about becoming someone new, but living as who you already are in Christ.
In this powerful episode of Committed, Matthew and Wil sit down with special guests Nick Gallo and Britton Hudson for a real, honest, and faith-filled conversation. Nick and Britton share their stories of how Jesus radically transformed their lives and how they got connected with the Committed movement.
From there, the guys dive into a series of deep, challenging questions submitted by Nick and Britton that every believer can relate to:
What does it really mean to fully surrender to God?
How do you approach someone in sin with gentleness and truth?
What is gossip, and how do we avoid it as followers of Christ?
What does it look like to be steadfast in your walk with Jesus?
Plus, Britton brings the heat with practical questions about anger, relationships, witnessing to non-believers, and handling tough conversations with friends.
The episode closes with Q&A pulled straight from our social media community—real questions from real people wanting to grow deeper in their faith.
Whether you’re new to your walk or have been following Jesus for years, this episode is filled with encouragement, truth, and practical wisdom. Tune in, take notes, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.
