What if the miracle of following Jesus isn’t just about life after death but about life before it?

In a world obsessed with what happens after we die, Jesus turns the question around and asks how we’re really living before we die. In this message from John 6, Pastor Trevor Hersey shows how the feeding of the five thousand reveals the way Jesus invites us to live through generosity, serving, and witnessing. When we live at His pace and under His yoke, the ordinary moments of life start to look a lot like miracles.

What do you do when you have prayed, believed, and kept showing up, but it still feels like you are losing? In this message, Pastor Trevor looks at the story of David and Goliath from a different angle. Instead of focusing on David’s victory, he looks at the Israelite soldiers who stood on the field day after day hearing the same taunts. For forty days, fear owned their mornings and evenings. But on day forty-one, God sent provision, presence, and victory walking toward them in the form of a shepherd boy carrying bread and cheese.

This message is for anyone who feels stuck in a season of forty, where life feels like constant testing, pruning, and process. You will see how God restores rhythm, brings provision for now and for what is ahead, and reminds us that He still wins every battle. Do not quit in your forty. Your forty-one is already on the way.

What’s the loudest voice in your head right now? For some, it’s brutal words like You’re worthless. You’ll never be enough. You don’t deserve love. For others, it’s lighter mantras like Just keep swimming. Do the next right thing. Progress, not perfection. But here’s the truth, whatever you keep repeating to yourself is shaping your life more than you realize. Studies say most of our daily thoughts lean negative, which means many of us are speaking defeat over our lives before we even face the battles outside of us.

In this message, we’re unpacking the difference between negative talk, good mantras, and the very best confessions of faith. We’ll step into real stories from scripture — David staring down Goliath, Hannah waiting in heartbreak, Job suffering without answers, and Jesus resisting temptation—and discover how their words became weapons of victory. You can survive by repeating mantras, or you can live by clinging to God’s promises. The question is, which confession will you hold onto?
