Transformation Church

God wants to give us His heart on finances, wealth, and generosity. Every time we experience financial increase, we’re taking an open-book test and God has already given us the answers. In Week 2 of WICKED: The Worship of Wealth, Pastor Michael Todd broke down tithing as a biblical principle and practice established by God of returning the first 10% of our increase back to God through the local church. He debunked myths and misteachings around giving and reminded us that tithing isn’t about pressure, it’s about honoring God. This message speaks to the real feelings many believers have about tithing and reveals the fun and freedom that come with trusting God in this area.If you’re ready to honor God with your wealth as outlined in Proverbs 3:9-10, text "TEST" to 828282 or complete the form here: https://transformus.churchcenter.com/people/forms/932025. We can’t wait to see what God does with your YES!Scripture References:Hebrews 12:1-2 NIVProverbs 3:9Malachi 3:6-12 NKJVGalatians 3:13 NKJVDeuteronomy 30:19 NIVMalachi 3:10 NIVLeviticus 27:30 NKJVMatthew 23:23 NKJVExodus 13:14-15

Most of us have been distracted by money instead of being directed by God. Whether you’re worried about how much you have or how much you don’t, this message is going to help you shift your focus and see money the way God does. In Week 1 of the WICKED: The Worship of Wealth Sermon Series, Pastor Michael Todd broke down how money is simply a tool and it will reveal your heart and remind you who you really are. As we studied the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 6, we learned how worshipping wealth and wasting wealth are both wicked. We pray this message helps you recognize your relationship with money and seek to handle your finances with God’s wisdom.Scripture ReferencesHebrews 12:1-2 NIVProverbs 11:24-26 MSGMatthew 6:19-24 NIVMatthew 25:19-30 NLTDeuteronomy 15:7-9 NKJVDeuteronomy 15:10-11 NKJV

Your distraction isn’t after your life—it’s after your vision. In Week 8 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael Todd challenged us with a question: Is your distraction playing you? Some of us have become so comfortable with our distractions that we don’t even realize they’re draining our strength. Like Samson, we’ve nurtured what was meant to conquer us, and by the time we wake up, it’s already taken more than we ever intended to give. It’s time to wake up and break free. We pray this message helps you identify the exits of distraction and realign your focus on what God has for you in this season!Scripture ReferencesMatthew 25:25-26 BSBHebrews 12:1-2 NIVJudges 16:17-22 NLTJudges 16:28-30 NLT

The discussion reveals how distractions can often hide in seemingly minor details, pulling us away from trusting God's process. By exploring the Israelites' journey, the speaker highlights that what feels like a detour may actually be divine design for personal growth. Emphasis is placed on the need to shift focus from life's minutiae to devotion, trusting in God's timing and guidance. Listeners are encouraged to foster connections and support each other in their faith journeys, ultimately guiding them from distraction to transformation.

What’s Fueling Your Focus? In Week 6 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Charles Metcalf challenged us to examine what’s driving our focus—is it fear or faith? If we’re not careful, we can do the right thing with the wrong motive, and a focus fueled by fear will always shrink our future. But when our focus is fueled by faith, it grows in the direction of God’s purpose for us. In this message you will find out how to flip your focus by 3 simple steps so that your faith can grow.Scripture ReferencesHebrews 12:1-2 NLTMatthew 38:1-6 NASB1 Thessalonians 5:4-11 NIV2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NIV

We often think distractions come from people, places, or things—but sometimes, the biggest distraction is what’s happening inside of us.In Week 5 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael exposed the distraction of comparison through the story of Saul and David. When insecurity takes over, even our allies can start looking like enemies.We pray this message helps you break free from insecurity, comparison, and fear—so you can walk boldly in the confidence of who God has called you to be!Scripture References:Hebrews 12:1-2 NLT1 Samuel 18:5-15 NLT1 Samuel 13:11-14 NLT

Are you dating with discernment or just delulu? In Week 4 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael broke down how Delilah repeatedly tried to distract Samson—while he stayed stuck in delusion. The real question is: Are we making room for our distractions? Have we gotten so deep in a relationship with them that we can’t even see what they’re stealing from us? We pray this message helps you recognize the traps of compromise and refocus on Godly commitments over temporary distractions. Scripture ReferencesHebrews 12:1-2 NIVJudges 16:5-14 NLT

Double-mindedness keeps part of your life in the light while the other stays in the dark—but eventually, the side you feed the most will win. On this special Anniversary Sunday and Week 3 of Death to Distraction, Pastor Michael reminded us that we can’t fully embrace God’s promises while still clinging to the pleasures of our flesh. To overcome double-mindedness, we must stay devoted, disciplined, and defended by the people we surround ourselves with.We pray this message challenges you to reflect on your decisions and align your patterns with God’s will.Happy 26 years as a ministry & 10 years under the leadership of Pastor Michael Todd, TC Nation!

There’s always a door that leads to destruction. What doors have you left open that need to be shut? Pastor Michael masterfully taught on the importance of being self-aware and not in denial when it comes to the distractions in our life. When we couple distractions with denial we always end in destruction. We pray this message gives you clarity on what doors you need to shut so that you can be open to all the God has for you in this season!Scripture ReferencesHebrews 12:1-2 NIVJudges 16:4-30 NLTJudges 14:5-9 NIVRomans 6:1-4 NLT

Anchored in our scripture of the year Hebrews 11:1-2, Pastor Michael reminded us that staying focused on Jesus is the key to overcoming distractions. Every distraction begins with a decision, and the first step to deliverance is recognizing that we have the power to accept distractions and choose God’s way of escape. Our decisions flow from our heart, to our minds and then to our hands. The more we dissect our decisions, the more we can change our destiny. We pray this message helps you to regain your focus and recognize how to put death to your distractions.Scripture ReferencesHebrews 12:1-2 NIV1 Corinthians 10:13 NLTJudges 13
