This week, in what might be the funniest episode yet, Molly and Emese are joined by co-stars Amy Schumer and Brianne Howey. They get candid about motherhood, career evolution, and their new film, Kinda Pregnant —which unexpectedly led to Amy’s latest health discovery. Amy opens up about how public criticism led her to uncover her Cushing syndrome diagnosis, what it’s like to navigate comedy and Hollywood as a mom, and the importance of sharing birth stories without shame. Brianne shares how becoming a mother has shifted her perspective on work, how Ginny & Georgia ’s Georgia Miller compares to real-life parenting, and the power of female friendships in the industry. We also go behind the scenes of their new Netflix film, Kinda Pregnant —how Molly first got the script, why Amy and Brianne were drawn to the project, and what it means for women today. Plus, they reflect on their early career struggles, the moment they knew they “made it,” and how motherhood has reshaped their ambitions. From career highs to personal challenges, this episode is raw, funny, and packed with insights.

It emphasizes the importance of commitment, symbolized by the Ten Commandments as a Ketubah, and the sealing of the covenant through intimacy, represented by the Chuppah. The message challenges couples to protect their relationship from distractions and trust that God has saved the best for last in their covenant with Him.

🌊 Ducks in a Row - Week 3: The Battle Between Doing and Dwelling 🌊 Welcome to Week 3 of Ducks in a Row! Over the past weeks, we've explored the battles between the Past and the Promise and Chaos and Order. Today, Pastor Mike dives into the next critical struggle: The Battle Between Doing and Dwelling. In a world driven by algorithm-rooted affirmation and view-count validation, many of us have traded authenticity for curated perfection. But God doesn’t pursue the filtered, photoshopped version of you—He wants the real you. 🔑 Key Themes: Are we defining ourselves by what we do or what we’ve done? How Instagram culture fuels a gift-only perception of identity. Breaking free from guilt, shame, and performance-based validation. Learning to be loved without your gift—and discovering the purest version of love. 📖 Scripture Reference: John 4:1-18 – Jesus meets the Samaritan woman at the well, revealing the truth about identity, grace, and living water. 💡 Highlights: The pressure to perform vs. the call to abide in Christ. What does it mean to let go of striving and embrace God’s affection? How the gospel creates freedom from guilt and shame, allowing us to walk in true identity. The real version of you is not out there someday—it’s here, right now. Will you let Jesus introduce you to who He created you to be?…
In Week 2 of the “Ducks in a Row” series, titled “The Battle Between Order & Chaos,” Pastor Mike draws lessons from King Hezekiah’s story in 2 Kings 20. Facing the threat of death and national crisis, Hezekiah is instructed to “set your house in order,” reminding us that God works powerfully when our lives align with His priorities. Pastor Mike highlights three areas of order—re-evaluating our tomorrow, rewriting our history through prayer, and responding to God with genuine worship. Just as Hezekiah turned to God in desperation and was granted both extended life and renewed purpose, we too can experience divine breakthroughs when we prioritize, pray, and praise according to God’s design.

In the first sermon of our new series “Ducks in a Row” titled “The Battle Between the Past & the Promise” we explore the tension between looking back at our past and stepping into God’s promises for our future. Using Numbers 11:4-14, we examine how the Israelites’ nostalgia for Egypt—the place of their slavery—blinded them to God’s present provision and future blessings. This message challenges us to stop living in the past, trust God’s current provision, and embrace our role as leaders in His plan. Watch now to learn how to align your life with God’s promises for 2025! #church #jesus #2023 #jesuschrist #focuschurch #church #2023 #raleigh #triangle —— Subscribe to the latest sermons.

The power of provision reminds us that God is both our source and sustainer. Like Isaac in Genesis, who reaped abundantly because of God’s blessing, and Peter, who saw a miraculous coin meet his need, we serve a God who is faithful to provide in every season. Whether through the skills He’s given us, the work He’s called us to, or the unexpected miracles that defy logic, God is Jehovah Jireh—our Provider. As we align our motives with His purpose, steward His blessings wisely, and embrace the gifts He’s placed in our lives, we can trust that He will meet every need and equip us to live generously and impactfully for His glory. Where God guides, He provides—and He does so with love, abundance, and perfect timing.…
We measure life more in seasons than in seconds, and last week we explored the three distinct seasons we go through—Separation, Cultivation, and Irrigation. This week, we turn to Jesus’ parable of the weeds and wheat in Matthew 13, an agricultural metaphor revealing kingdom truths. The enemy doesn't attack the seed but the owner, devaluing the harvest by planting weeds to distract, drain, and delay. Yet, the integrity of God's seed remains unshaken. Harvest is not only a time of reaping but of refining, where God separates the wheat from the weeds, revealing the full value of what He’s planted in us. We are God's seeds; the enemy plants weeds; but God owns the field, and He knows the yield!…
In "The Lifecycle of a Seed," Pastor Mike begins the "The Speed of Seed" series by encouraging us through Galatians 6:9 not to grow weary in doing good, for a harvest will come if we persist. He reflects on how time feels fast in joy but drags in hardship, and how seasons of suffering, like Job's, often feel eternal. Job’s trials remind us of our own seasons of Separation, where God may detach us from past comforts to prepare us for new growth. In Cultivation, God works in hidden places, like a seed buried in the soil, reminding us that our darkest seasons are often where His greatest work takes root. In the final Season of Irrigation, Pastor Mike emphasizes that our tears and worship water the promise of new life, as God, the provider of “living water,” brings the harvest at just the right time.

In "Miracles in Mass Quantities," Pastor Mike explores the powerful miracle of Jesus feeding the 5,000, revealing how God turns our scarcity into overflow. Emphasizing obedience, he notes that faith and following God’s direction lead to supernatural results. Organization, too, plays a role as God often brings larger blessings when we structure our lives around Him. Finally, the twelve leftover baskets show how surrendering what we have, even our brokenness, results in abundance. This miracle reminds us to trust God with what we have and to expect His abundant provision. Subscribe to the latest sermons.

Pastor Nate Clarke's message "Living Ready" reminds us of the importance of using our God-given talents with purpose. Based on Matthew 25:14-30, we’re reminded that God is the Master, and we are His servants, called to steward His gifts well. As Spurgeon once said, “God will not ask what your church did—He will ask you what you did yourself.” The parable challenges us to move beyond hesitation, using even what feels small for God's kingdom. Let’s live ready, knowing one day we’ll give an account for how we invested what He entrusted to us. Subscribe to the latest sermons.

God wants to be at the center of your life just like you want to be at the top of your kids’ inbox. He’s calling you to a deeper friendship through sonship, lordship, fellowship, discipleship, citizenship, stewardship, and battleship. You’re not just made by Him; you were bought by Him at a price. Let’s walk together in His grace and purpose. To continue to support this ministry so we can reach people all around the world, visit www.givetofocus.com…
Pastor Mike preached this powerful message in Week 4 of our "How to Be Friends" series, focusing on The Fear of the Lord as a key element in deepening our friendship with God. Drawing from Psalm 25:14, Pastor Mike emphasized that true friendship with God requires a reverent submission—a healthy fear that acknowledges God's holiness and power. He reminded us that our relationship with God thrives when we approach Him with humility, resist becoming overly familiar, and pursue obedience. The more we honor and fear God, the deeper our friendship with Him becomes. #church #jesus #2023 #jesuschrist #focuschurch #church #2023 #raleigh #triangle —— Subscribe to the latest sermons.

In Week 3 of the "How to Be Friends" series, titled "Friends on Fire," Pastor Mike challenges the congregation to rekindle their passion for Jesus, drawing from Revelation 2 and the example of the church in Ephesus. Though they were diligent in their deeds, the Ephesians had drifted from their first love, and Pastor Mike urges everyone to evaluate their own relationship with God. He outlines three steps to reignite this passion: examining your life, repenting from distractions, and responding by returning to spiritual disciplines like prayer, worship, and sharing faith. With heartfelt urgency, Pastor Mike emphasizes that passion for Jesus is the foundation for everything significant in the Christian life, calling the church to let that passion shine and impact the world.
