This Isn’t a Horse Training Video. It’s a Wake-Up Call.

What if fear isn’t the problem, but staying stuck is?This isn’t just about a horse. It’s about every one of us who’s been stuck, scared, running in circles trying to feel safe. At Horse Weekend, Todd Pierce shows us what happens when trust replaces fear, and love rewrites the story. Through the gentle, unscripted dance between a man and a horse, you’ll see the gospel in real-time—no sermons, just surrender. This is a raw, powerful look at what happens when God moves and freedom begins.When fear says run, love says stay.This horse walked in guarded, unsure, and tense—just like many of us. But over the course of one hour, through gentle leadership and love, he softened, listened, and surrendered. Todd’s interaction becomes a mirror for our souls, showing how God doesn’t force us into obedience—He invites us into trust. This is what healing looks like when the gospel gets real and fear loses its grip.

What to Do When You’ve Been Treated Unfairly

What do you do when someone wounds you—and you're left with the fallout?Steven Lee shares a raw, personal story of betrayal and loss, wiring nearly all his savings to a scam artist, and how that wound could have shaped his story. But instead of staying stuck in pain or lashing out in revenge, Steven takes us to the cave with David in 1 Samuel 24, where we learn three ways to respond when life wounds us deeply: Resist the Drift, Respond with Honor, and Release the Outcome to God.This message isn’t just about being hurt. It’s about who we’re becoming in the process. Steven walks through the tension of wanting payback vs. choosing restraint, trusting God even when the outcome doesn’t make sense, and how God uses our lowest moments to build something stronger in us. When pain tries to define us, faith gives us a better script. You don’t have to throw the spear.

You’re More Than What You’ve Done | There's Hope When You’ve Messed Up

Ever feel like your life hasn’t turned out the way you hoped?This message is for anyone living under the weight of unmet expectations. Pastor Ben walks through the pain of disappointment when marriage, parenting, health, or faith just doesn’t pan out, and how it slowly chips away at our resolve. Whether you’ve been let down like Samuel or feel like the disappointment yourself, like David, there’s a way forward that doesn’t end in compromise or giving up. This isn’t about pretending you’re okay, it’s about resilience, redemption, and the raw grace of Jesus.When Samuel was grieving and David was dismissed as a nobody, God wasn’t done. He saw their hearts, and that’s still what He sees today. The same God who anointed the runt of the litter to be king and loved a train wreck like David wants to meet you in your mess. Whether you’ve blown it or been broken, you’re not disqualified. You're a perfect setup for grace. Keep showing up. Don’t quit now.
