Ever wonder if you could really move forward after disappointment or failure?Pastor Barbie invites you into the heart of what it means to respond to God’s invitation to arise, even when self-doubt or the past holds you down. She shares her experiences with seasons of both deep difficulty and surprising joy, reminding us that the journey with God is marked by real questions, lingering shame, and repeated starts.She explores the tension between the accusing voice that says you’ll never measure up and the hopeful voice of God that calls you to get up, not just once, but as many times as it takes. Through vivid retellings of Scripture and her own walk with God, she unpacks what happens when you step away from your comfort zone, face your wounds, and say yes to the next step.If you're feeling sidelined or wrestling with whether you’re disqualified, this episode will show that we all sometimes need more than one touch from God. The call to arise isn’t about performance; it’s about responding to God’s persistent offer of healing and purpose. The story isn’t over—the moment you get up, something new begins.Scriptures ReferencedGenesis 13:17; Joshua 1:2, 3:5; 1 Kings 19:5-7; Psalm 84:6; Matthew 9:6, 14:28; Mark 5:41, 8:22-26; Philippians 1:6Key InsightsGod’s call to arise is an invitation, not shame.Stepping up often precedes clear purpose and open doors.Rest and a second touch from God are holy and precious, not signs of failure.Sight alone isn't enough. We need to have our vision restored to see the way God sees.Key Sections00:00:00 - Wrestling with Shame and CallingWhen calling weighs heavy and setbacks pile on, self-doubt and spiritual nausea set in. Real obedience asks for both accountability and grit.00:03:46 - The Two Voices After a FallEver been immobilized by accusation, feeling both exposed and hopeless? The enemy accuses, but God’s call comes saturated with hope, inviting risky obedience.00:07:46 - What It Means to AriseHours lost to regret and apathy sap our energy. The Hebrew call is not casual—arise punches through inertia, calls you to stand up in defeat, and step toward meaning—again.00:10:22 - Standing Up Before the StepBefore any miracle, before any purpose is revealed, the decision to stand and move is forged in tension and unknowns. Obedience leads, not certainty.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/arise-the-faith-of-taking-the-first-step-Subscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
Chaos hits, even when you do everything right. The real tension is not in the storm itself, but in the haunting sense that maybe you’re alone, unseen, or failing.Pastor Kevin reminds us that sometimes we're in the middle of a storm, not because we made a wrong turn, but because we’re right where God called us to be. This is where peace is no longer defined by external calm, but by knowing who sits beside you when the waves rise.Through raw stories, honest confessions, and a moving testimony, you’re invited to let go of self-reliance and find your belonging in God’s presence. Your struggle is not too messy. Your weakness is not a disqualifier. Here, storms can become proof that you’re being held and not abandoned.Come see what it’s like to change anxiety into steady confidence—and to let your faith spread to everyone around you.Scriptures ReferencedExodus 33:12-15; Psalm 46:1, 46:10; Isaiah 43:2; Mark 5:25-41; John 16:33Key InsightsPeace is found in the presence of the Lord.It’s much better to be in the storm with Jesus than to be in the calm without Him.Storms reveal trust issues.Preparation feels unnecessary until survival depends on it.The storms in your life don’t have the final say.Key Sections00:00:00 - Embracing Real PresencePeace has less to do with calm surroundings and everything to do with who’s actually with you. Notice what shifts when presence—not perfection—becomes your anchor.00:16:40 - Storms Are Not IsolationPastor Kevin unpacks how your hidden battles aren’t as isolating as they feel, and how faith is never a solo endeavor.00:39:40 - Hands Raised in WeaknessRaw honesty is not weakness. What if your gibberish prayers or silent cries are the very thing that moves heaven? Discover a posture of surrender that changes the whole atmosphere.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/arise-in-the-midst-of-the-stormSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
Division isn’t just "out there." If we're not careful, it creeps into our families, friendships, and even our faith communities. We get lost in being right, in old wounds, and in lines drawn by culture or tradition. Yet God has called us to something better: real connection, real unity, a place where Christ rules and grace is extended.You’re welcome to start where you are. The journey isn’t about getting it all right; it’s about becoming a little more like Christ every day. Lay down the need to win, and pick up the invitation to live out radical forgiveness.Key Insights:Our true fellowship is in Christ.Knowledge alone puffs up, but Christlike love builds up and welcomes.In the end, the only thing that really matters is looking like Christ.Forgiveness is supernatural. You receive it freely and give it freely.Scriptures ReferencedPsalm 133; Proverbs 6:16-19; Matthew 23:15; Mark 12:22-30; 1 Corinthians 8:1b; Ephesians 4:32; Colossians 3:12-13; 2 Timothy 2:24-25; James 3:1; Revelation 12:10Key InsightsOur true fellowship is in Christ.Knowledge alone puffs up, but Christlike love builds up and welcomes.In the end, the only thing that really matters is looking like Christ.Forgiveness is supernatural. You receive it freely and give it freely.Key Sections00:00:00 - Facing DivisionTension, opinions, and hurt threaten to pull us apart, even inside the church. Pastor Ronnie exposes the roots of division and why even the "spiritual" can get it wrong.00:09:46 - Embracing ForgivenessSome differences run deep, but Christ's call is to something deeper still. Here’s why forgiveness is always possible but never achieved in our own strength.00:18:45 - Kindness Over Being RightWe can cling to being "correct," but Pastor Ronnie’s raw stories show how humility, not certainty, sets people free. Being right can make you mean; kindness transforms.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/to-be-like-christSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
Ever feel like your life looks fine on the outside while chaos brews underneath? We all know what it’s like to manage appearances, hoping our hidden mess will just stay tucked away. But as Pastor Kevin reminds us, God isn’t looking for perfection. He’s after transformation in the places we’d rather keep locked up.We can rest in His goodness as He tends to the wounds, disappointments, and stubborn habits we'd rather ignore. Because when calling and character collide, we don't need shortcuts. We need the deep maturity that comes from deep growth and healing.Stop hiding and start letting the light in. Join the honest journey from maintaining an image to becoming whole, grounded, and ready for what’s next.Scriptures ReferencedEphesians 4:1–13; Romans 11:29; 1 Corinthians 15:10; Isaiah 6:1–8; 2 Corinthians 12:9; Romans 5:1–5; Revelation 3:20.Key InsightsGod’s call on your life is irrevocable, but maturity is a choice.Real growth begins when you address what’s hidden, not just what’s seen.Grace both opens and closes doors to shape you—not to punish, but to form.Character, not talent, is what sustains your calling.Key Sections00:00:00 - Dependent Not DrivenThink you need to have it all together before God can use you? Discover why dependence, not self-sufficiency, is the real mark of a mature believer.00:10:16 - Character Over CallingHidden flaws won't stay hidden forever. Learn why your greatest gift won't take you further than your spiritual maturity.00:17:15 - Embracing the Grace GapEver feel left behind or overlooked? See how grace works in the wait—healing what ambition alone cannot touch.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/arise-in-calling-and-graceSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
We live in a culture that celebrates self-sufficiency. We’re told to grind harder, manage outcomes, and control every detail. But what happens when you reach the end of your rope and realize the burden is more than you can carry?Pastor Kevin gets blunt: real spiritual growth doesn’t come from trying harder or earning your spot. It starts when you finally let go, rest, and admit you’re not the source of your own strength. Drawing from Genesis to the words of Jesus, he walks through the tension of wanting to do it all yourself—and the freedom found in surrender.This is not weakness; it’s wisdom. Becoming childlike isn’t about immaturity—it’s about owning your limits and trusting God to do what you cannot. If you’re worn out or stuck, you are right where you need to be.The invitation is simple but costly: rest, trust, and let Him carry what you can’t.Scriptures ReferencedGenesis 1; Proverbs 3:5; Matthew 23:12; Luke 17-18, 18:15, 18:17; John 15; 1 Corinthians 5:7Key InsightsJesus is our Source.Rest is a part of God’s design.Faith is revealed by how much you depend.We don’t just need what Jesus gives; we need Jesus.The Kingdom belongs to those who depend on the Lord.Key Sections - Trade Striving for RestMost of us live exhausted, trapped in the idea that spiritual maturity begins with what we do for God. That pull to measure your faith by activity feels noble, but only wears you out. Pastor Kevin invites you to a different path—one where growing spiritually begins with giving up control, where the first choice is to rest instead of rush, and where God’s plan is to fill you up before you try to help others. - Dependence Over ConfidenceA spiritual experience can slowly change into self-confidence. The more you learn, the easier it becomes to trust your own thoughts instead of relying on God. Notice the drift from dependence, as faith quietly shifts from Jesus to your grasp of spiritual things. Pastor Kevin exposes how easily we try to “do God’s job for him” and calls you to a radical return to childlike trust. - Become Childlike AgainPerforming, producing, managing outcomes - these exhaust you yet bring no closer intimacy with God. Jesus welcomes only those who embrace utter dependence, like an infant with nothing to offer but need. Here, every pretense of strength is surrendered. You find lasting transformation not in what you achieve, but in how you trust and rest as a beloved child.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/arise-dependentlySubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
Feeling lost and without hope? Remember the story of Mary Magdalene and witness how Jesus offers more than relief from pain or the past.Pastor Kevin talks about real moments of feeling let down, sticking around when things are hard, and the difference between just knowing about Jesus and really meeting Him. Leave behind numbness, striving, and labels as you find belonging, real change, and permission to be honest with God.Let's move from being on the sidelines to living with courage, peace, and a revived perspective.Scriptures ReferencedPsalm 30:5, 34:18; Jeremiah 29:13; Luke 8:1-3, 19:10; John 20:11-18; 2 Timothy 3:5; Hebrews 4:16; Revelation 21:4Key InsightsJesus is in the business of setting people free.Casual encounters with Jesus create seasonal followers.No depth of darkness disqualifies you from an encounter with Jesus.Your pain will often preach louder than the truth if you’ll let it.When Jesus shows up everything changes.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/he-is-risenSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
You don’t have to face life’s quiet or confusing seasons alone. Listen as Pastor Barbie walks with us through the story of Jesus’ final week, bringing to light both moments of joy and the silent spaces where hope seems dim.Find simple ways to engage in worship, stay true to your purpose, and believe that God’s love is always present, even when it's quiet.Scriptures ReferencedZechariah 9:9; Matthew 21:7, 24:1-3, 26:14-16, 26:27-29, 27:57-60; John 3:16-7, 12:1-3, 12:12-13, 18:36-40, 19:14-18; Ephesians 4:26; 1 Peter 2:9Key InsightsTrue worship is rarely convenient. It is often misunderstood. It is always costly.Are we truly fruitful or are we simply managing the appearance of fruitfulness?Do we carry in our heart a deep reverence for what is holy and sacred to the Lord?When in a Silent Saturday world, we must continually remind our hearts that Sunday is coming.You are holy to the Lord, and that changes how you treat yourself and others.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/from-shouts-to-silenceSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
Pastor Kevin talks about a struggle that every believer faces. It's about showing the truth of Jesus in a world that often gets it wrong or fights against us. Based on John 13, John 15, and Ephesians 6, he reminds us that staying strong in Christ’s truth might lead to times when we are rejected. However, our safety doesn’t come from what people think of us; it comes from being held by God.Whether you struggle with seeking approval or are wrestling through relational friction, this message offers grounding hope: you are secure in the Father’s hands, called to love with the power only His Spirit supplies.Scriptures ReferencedJohn 13:34-35, 15:1-19; Ephesians 6:10-17; John 10:27-29; Romans 3:23Key InsightsIf your goal is approval, truth will feel optional.You don’t win a spiritual battle by attacking people.If you don’t suit up spiritually, you will show up emotionally.Loving others well comes only through the power of the Holy Spirit, not just willpower.Confession and honest vulnerability build authentic community.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/hated-but-heldSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006
