Surge Church

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. In Jesus' Parable of the Sower, He described 4 types of soil the seed fell on as the sower sowed seed. Jesus later explained to the disciples that the seed represented the Word of God and the 4 kinds of soil represented people's hearts when the Word is sown into their lives. The theme of this message is that the Gospel of the Kingdom will be met with varying success, which is determined by the condition of the human heart that receives it. We must ensure that our hearts are the "good ground" that is open and receptive to God's word in order to produce the fruit of the Kingdom.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. The Bible is replete with the Principle of Partnership. Jesus said that if two or three of you come into agreement concerning anything, I will be in your midst. God loves partnership to such an extent that He promises to be present when partners come into agreement. It is through the power of agreement that partners have the power to bind and loose. Kingdom Partnership empowers the Church to accomplish its mission in the earth!

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. Partnership is defined as “two or more people joined together in a common interest.” The Church is the extension of Jesus’ ministry in the earth. Believers are called by God to join together in the common interest of moving the Church forward. From the beginning of the Church in the Book of Acts to today, the generous support of believers resources the vision and ministry of the Church. True discipleship is when believers understand they have become partakers of the things of God and a partners in advancing the things of God.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. The great redwood tress do not have tap roots, they have lateral roots. They draw their strength from having roots connected to other trees. This is a perfect example of the need we have to be rooted in Jesus as we partake in the Christian life with our fellow believers. To grow healthy roots we must love unconditionally, love sacrificially and love forgivingly. May we grow the supporting roots of love that Jesus shared on the cross.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. Easter reminds us of what Jesus accomplished through His death, burial and resurrection. Because of Jesus we have Peace In Our Hearts, Pardon For Our Sins and Pouring Out Of God's Love To Others. Jesus changes everything. It is all Because of Jesus.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. The sinister plot by the Jewish leaders to convict Jesus and to set the stage for His crucifixion was the hand of God. The evil idea of man was actually the eternal plan of God, because we desperately needed it. Jesus’ death brought forgiveness of sin, healed the hurting and called people out of hiding in sin. What seemed as a dark day was in fact a Good Friday.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. At the Last Supper, Jesus humbled Himself to wash the feet of His disciples. One of the last acts he performed before His betrayal and death was to demonstrate to His followers how to live humbly, how to serve sacrificially and how to love others. May we, as those who bear the name “Christian,” follow his example. In the good times. In the difficult times. And at all times in between.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. There are seasons of life in which we find ourselves adrift in the doldrums of life with no direction or momentum. The wind of God's Spirit can shift you into a new season of favor that puts you on target toward your God-given destiny.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. If you are in need of God shifting things in your favor, then don’t miss the message “It’s Time To Shift.” God wants to break you free from your past in order to set you on course for your future. Be open to the leading of the Holy Spirit and the shifts He brings. Small acts of obedience lead to supernatural acts of God in your life.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. Faith is the hallmark of the Christian life. Faith is what separates us from the world. Our faith in God is not based on what we see or do not see in the natural, but by what God’s word says. This is why we are called to walk by faith and not by sight. In the message, “Foundations Of Faith,” Pastor Brad shares 4-Foundations that will anchor your faith and give it strength to endure.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. Faith is the currency of the spirit realm. Faith receives in the natural what God has made available to us in the Spirit. The Lord has His mighty arm drawn back ready to pass, but we must be in position to receive what He desires to give. We position our selves to receive by faith.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. In the message "No More Excuses," Evangelist Johnny Jernigan encourages believers to carry a soul winning spirit and compel others to come into the Kingdom of God. Time is running out and we must be fueled by the desire to win as manny for Christ as possible.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. In Part 4 of the message "The Spirit of Excellence," Pastor Brad emphasizes how People of Excellence do not compare themselves to others, but rather compete with themselves in order to be the best they can be. Excellence isn't defined by the final score, but by what you do with what God gives you!

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. The Spirit of Excellence distinguishes you from others. The Bible tells us that God preserved Joshua and Caleb so that they would live to possess the Land of Promise because they were men with a "Different Spirit.” Excellence gives you the different spirit that keeps and promotes you. Be blessed as Pastor Brad are more Power Principles of Excellence in Part 3 of this message series.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. The root word for Excellence is "Excel." Excel means to surpass and go beyond. If you want to excel in 2024 beyond where you were in 2023, then you must operate in the Power and Spirit of Excellence. In Part 2 of this series, Pastor Brad shares additional Power Principles of Excellence that will elevate you in life and in your work.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. Excellence is not a gift. No one is born with excellence. It is something that must be developed. Excellence is an attitude that is motivated by a spirit from within. Operating in excellence can be the difference in making 2024 more significant than 2023 . In this message series, you will learn Power Principles of Excellence that will elevate your life.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. As we begin a New Year, let's commit to be ALL IN CHURCH. In this message, Brandon Sanders encourages us to be all in as we partner together to build God's Church through our love, support, service and desire to reach others with a message of hope.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. In our Christmas Eve Candlelight Communion Service, Pastor Brad Sullivan ministered Part 3 of the message series - "What Child Is This?" Jesus was fully human and fully God. As a human, He possessed characteristics and attributes of His mother Mary. Jesus demonstrated the same love and compassion for us as His mother did for Him.

Thank you for listening to our Surge Church Podcast. In Part 2 of the message - “What Child Is This?” - Pastor Brad Sullivan points out the similarity the Christ Child had with the Wise Men. Like the Wise Men from the East, Jesus journeyed from heaven to earth, He came to seek and to save the lost as they sought after Him, and He demonstrated generosity as the Wise Men by giving His life as a ransom for us.
