Pray Bigger: Seeing Life through God's Perspective

Sun, 12 Jul 2026 06:00:00 -0700

What if you could begin seeing your life through God's perspective? What if you were given the permission to pray bigger? I mean to really ask for the big things of life.

If you've ever had one of those moments where you could see how the parts of your life over the years really does fit together, but wish you could keep this perspective regularly, then I think you'll really appreciate this week's message.

The reality is, God wants you to know him better, to understand the hope that you have, to recognize your inheritance, and ultimately to experience his power.

Because when our spiritual eyes are opened, we begin to see life from God's perspective – and everything changes.

Attitude Affects Everything

Sun, 05 Jul 2026 06:00:00 -0700

Our attitudes don't change every circumstance, but it changes how we "respond" to every circumstance.

If you ever wish you could respond differently to certain situations, then please join me for this week's message.

What is so amazing is that a Christ-centered attitude can turn obstacles into opportunities and trials into testimonies.

Attitude might not be everything, it just affects everything!

Let's try to get the right attitudes.

Trusting God with the Whole Journey

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 06:00:00 -0700

Many times in life we want to see the entire journey, but God usually shows us only the next step.

If you are ever frustrated because you feel like God has brought you partway in your life journey and just left you hanging there, then this week's message is for you.

The reality is that faith isn't trusting God when we can see the destination; it's trusting him when all we can see is His hand leading us forward.

Let's decide today to trust God with the whole journey!

His Mercy is New Every Morning

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 06:00:00 -0700

God's mercy is all around us, we just need to be looking for it. The truth is that God's mercy is not based on our performance, but rather it's renewed daily, because of His faithfulness.

It can be hard to not focus on your problems.

If you're going through a rough time or feeling alone, this week's message will help you feel more connected with God.

I want to encourage you to focus on God's compassion.

Whether you're going through something painful, experiencing loss, or drowning in grief, we need to look beyond the ruins and declare God's great love for us.

Hold On: How to Stay Faithful While You Wait

Sun, 14 Jun 2026 06:00:00 -0700

The reality is, we all have had to play the waiting game somehow someway. Waiting for direction, waiting for breakthrough, even waiting for the blessing and reward.

If you have ever felt like "God, I've been what I'm supposed to and I've been faithful, why am I still stuck here? Why are things still so hard?" then today's message is for you.

It can be so challenging to hold on and stay faithful in the middle of the waiting game.

I want to encourage you that patience is not passive, but rather it's trusting that God is working underground even when you can't see the growth.

Let's learn today on how to hold on and stay faithful, even in the painful seasons.

Scandalous Grace!

Sun, 10 May 2026 06:00:00 -0700

Have you ever said the phrase, "That's not fair!"

That might describe the grace that God gives us! It's actually scandalous.

God's grace is "scandalous" because it goes against our instincts about fairness, earning, and deserving.

If you would like to experience Grace in your life - even if you're not sure you deserve it - then please join me for this week's message.

At the core of God's Grace, it goes to the undeserving, ignores the scoreboard, and welcomes the outsider!

Let's dive deep into what "scandalous grace" actually means, and what it does for us!

His love will never run dry.

The Message that Changes Everything

Easter isn't just a holiday – it's the foundation of everything we believe.

Please join me this week as we explore the meaning of Easter for each of us.

Jesus didn't just die – he died for us personally.

But the grave couldn't hold him down.

He really died, and he really rose from the dead!

And then he appeared to more than 500 at one time!

Jesus died for your sin, rose for your victory, and now offers you new life. Easter… The message that changes everything!

Heart, Home, and Habits

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0700

I have discovered that there are three spiritual "default settings" that control the entire spiritual life that you and I live.

If you think these would be useful in your life, please join me for this week's message.

Let me put it in three questions for these "default settings" –

What rules your heart?

What fills your mind?

What fuels your actions?

I believe if you get these three right, everything else in life starts aligning.

It affects our heart, relationships, worship, and work!

Let's go after our heart, home, and habits!

Bold Access (Living Like the Curtain is Gone!)

Sun, 22 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0700

Sadly, many people don't realize God's invitation to come to Him. Many believers live like spiritual tourists, when they've been given permanent backstage passes!

If you have ever felt unsure about how much God really wants us to be close to him, this week's message will share what He actually says about this. Please join me.
www.thomoleary.org/category/messages

God's word tells us that we can access Him 24/7, anytime and anywhere.

And the truth is God isn't looking for performance – He's looking for authenticity.

We can draw near to God not because we're perfect, but because we've been cleansed.

Let's discover how to do it!

From Potential to Impact

Sun, 15 Mar 2026 05:00:00 -0700

Have you ever walked into a room and felt underestimated?

Too young. Too old. Too quiet. Two new. Two inexperienced.

If you can relate, please join me for this week's message.

I know I have felt this way.

When I was in my 20s, I looked like a teenager!

Now things have reversed and in many settings, I'm now the old guy!

I want you to know that God has put so much potential in you, regardless of your age or experience.

He has given you gifts.

Now the ball is in our court, and we need to cultivate that potential and turn it into big-time impact.

Let's discover how!

Five Dangerous Prayers that Change Your Heart

Sun, 08 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0700

Have you ever noticed that some prayers are "safe" and some are "dangerous"?

Safe prayers are the ones that we pray without really thinking – like, "Lord bless my day."

"Help everything to go smoothly."

"Keep traffic light and the coffee strong!"

Nothing wrong with those prayers! But then there are dangerous prayers.

The ones that don't just ask God to change our circumstances – they ask him to change… us!

If you sense that there is a part of you that may need to change, please join me for this week's message.
www.thomoleary.org/category/messages

Let me offer five short prayers that look simple on the surface, but are spiritually explosive!

From Examination to Transformation

Sun, 01 Mar 2026 06:00:00 -0800

So many times in life we can sense that something is off, but we're afraid to take a closer look at it. Yet, when you discover what is wrong and you're able to correct it, then you're grateful.

Kind of like when you have food stuck in your teeth and finally a loved one points it out to you. And your response is, "Thank you for letting me know!"

Please join me this week to learn how God guides us to look at ourselves so we can improve.

Spiritually, we can get stuck. In those moments, the Bible calls us to invite God to search, test, reveal, and lead us.

We then can discover that His examination is never meant to shame us… Only to shape us!

So many of us struggle with negative self-talk. Perhaps you have caught yourself saying under your breath something like, "I'm too slow." "I'm not good enough." "I'm outdated."

If you can relate, please join me for this week's message.

But once you find out what God thinks about you, I'm telling you, your perspective is going to change.

We're going to find out that when God made you, He stepped back and said, "Wonderful!"

Fully Known, Fully Seen, Fully Loved

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0800

It's so easy in life to be going through a challenging season and to think that God has forgotten us.

Do you ever wonder if God is really there for you? If so, please join me for this week's message - I think it will help.

However, Psalm 139 tells us a different story. God sees us, searches us, knows the parts of our life that we're proud of and the parts we would just like to avoid, but God doesn't ever walk away or turn his back.

He's up close and personal, literally holding us up with His hand.

Let's discover how God doesn't just watch us, but he cares for us.

Five Things to Remember When Life Feels Unfair

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0800

Most of us grew up, believing an unspoken rule, "If I do the right things, life should work out." And then life breaks that rule!

The diagnosis comes anyway, the prayer feels unanswered, the faithful suffer while the dishonest seemed to thrive.

If you ever feel like you're doing the right thing but life feels unfair, please join me for this week's message:

We find ourselves asking, "Is God still good? Is it still worth trusting God?"

But I got great news for you!

The Bible doesn't rush past those questions, it walks straight into them!

So let me offer from God's word five things to remember when life feels unfair.

New Eyes for Your Journey

Sun, 01 Feb 2026 06:00:00 -0800

It is true that we all are on own journey. But, we all do have something in common. We all experience times of pain.

If you or someone you know is going through a painful period now, then please join me for this week's message.

Jesus warned us ahead of time that we would have trials and troubles and suffering.

No matter where you are at on your faith journey, God wants to give you new eyes to see from his perspective. He loves you too much to ever waste a pain.

In fact, He has a redeeming purpose in every pain. Seeing with new eyes empowers us to endure, to make it through.

He Truly taught Us To Love One Another – Unwrapping Love

Sun, 07 Dec 2025 06:00:00 -0800

I was talking to a friend of mine who's been a follower of Christ for many years. He looked at me and said, "I still question if God really really loves me. Or does he just put up with me."

If you ever wonder how much God really loves you, please join me for this week's message and see what the Bible says.

It made me think of how many of us relate to that and are not experiencing God's perfect love.

It can be so easy for any of us to fall into the trap of allowing our love to run dry. Our love for people, our love for our spouse or significant other, even our love for God can become stale and routine.

If you remember a time when you felt the deep richness of love… but it has been a while, please join me for this week's message.

We need to get our fire back, our passion back, and sometimes it takes stoking the fire!

Are you ready to get your love on?

Forgiving What You Can't Forget

Sun, 26 Oct 2025 06:00:00 -0700

One thing that we all have in common is that we have been hurt by other people in life. And the old expression "forgive and forget," sometimes just doesn't do the trick.

Is there someone in your life you've had a hard time forgiving?

Join me for this week's message to learn how to move past this kind of challenge and to let go of the stress that comes with it.

God created us with a memory, and the reality is there are things we will never forget.

But can we forgive?

Forgiving others is the most powerful and healthy thing you could ever do for yourself.

Not sure you can?

Listen to this.

So many people go through life thinking, assuming, or believing that God is angry at them.

In life we have daily choices all the time. And there is a progression that can happen that I call the "domino effect."

Join me this week to see how God guides us to make choices in our lives today that lead to the future we strive for.

Just like one domino knocks over another one and another one, the game you may have played as a kid, so our choices can lead to another choice and another choice and another choice.

The "Remember" Remedy

Sun, 06 Apr 2025 06:00:00 -0700

Isn't it frustrating when we forget things?

I don't know about you, but when I forget where my car keys are, or my wallet, or a password on one of my accounts, or a friend's birthday, it's just a bummer! But the worst thing that we could ever forget is all the benefits that are found in the Lord as we go through daily life and try to do it all on our own.

If you strive to remember to bring God's Grace into your everyday life situations, this week's message is for you.

In fact, the Bible says in Psalm 103:2, "Forget not all His benefits."

I want to give you a remedy on how to remember the good things every day!

Comparison is the Thief of Joy

Sun, 30 Mar 2025 06:00:00 -0700

Did you know that going down the road of comparison can affect your mental health and even ruin your relationships?

If you have ever felt bad when you look at what someone else has, or what their life is like, you're not alone. Human nature draws us to do this. But it turns out there is a better way.

Join me for this week's message to learn how to feel good instead of not enough.

Comparison is a sneaky thief that attempts to steal your joy.

Comparing ourselves to others so many times leaves us with feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, and even fear. It ruins relationships because we can find ourselves envious, jealous, and ungrateful.

God's word has a lot to say about this.
