Mercy Culture

In this powerful message, Pastor Sean Gleason explores what it truly means to connect with God through creation, drawing from Hosea 2 and Romans 1. He unpacks how everything in creation points back to the Creator, revealing that slowing down to behold the beauty of God in what He has made is not just a hobby for outdoorsmen, it is a powerful and intentional way to encounter the living God. Pastor Sean challenges believers to stop admiring creation while missing the Creator behind it.

Pastor Sean warns that when believers lose their awe and wonder of God, they will inevitably place it somewhere else, whether in witchcraft, idolatry, celebrity worship, or religious performance. He calls the church to be delivered from boredom and apathy, because the spirit of religion closes your spiritual eyes and leads you to find awe and wonder in all the wrong places.

This message challenges believers, and especially men, to spiritually lead by pursuing deep intimacy with God, because a passive man creates an open door for darkness to enter his home, his family, and his city. Creation is the art gallery of the Lord, and it is time to slow down and behold the beauty of the One who made it all.

The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God.

At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God. Each week, you will hear a teaching from our Lead Pastors, Les and Nikki Cody or another leader in our community.

In this impactful sermon, Chris Donald teaches that connecting with God through compassion goes beyond empathy—it requires action. Drawing from scriptures like Matthew 14:13-14 and the story of the Good Samaritan, he challenges believers to move from feeling for others to actively serving them.

In this message, we continue the Connect With God series by diving into what it truly means to encounter God through biblical meditation. This message challenges the modern misunderstanding of meditation and reveals that Scripture isn’t meant to empty your mind—but to fill it with truth that transforms you.

Walking through passages like Psalm 1, Joshua 1, and Romans 12, we unpack how meditating on God’s Word daily is not just a discipline, but a lifestyle that leads to renewal, spiritual growth, and real transformation. When the Word becomes your focus—spoken, repeated, and lived—you begin to think differently, respond differently, and ultimately become more like Jesus.

If you’ve struggled with consistency, distraction, or feeling disconnected from God, this message is a practical and powerful invitation: slow down, return to the Word, and build a daily encounter that leads to lasting change.

From Reformed to Revival: How One Pastor Went All In on the Holy Spirit Pastor Josh McPherson went from a word-heavy, spirit-light Reformed church to 3-hour spontaneous worship nights, a 40-day fast, prophetic words written in a teardrop, and an invitation to the Oval Office — all in 60 days. This is one of the wildest Holy Spirit stories you'll hear.

Pastor Clay unpacks what it truly means to connect with God through learning—not by gaining information, but by becoming a disciple of Jesus. He challenges us to examine what we are yoked to and calls us to repentance, reminding us that real transformation happens when we walk with Jesus, not just learn about Him.
