"Grace In, Gratitude Grown, Generosity Out" 2 Cor. 9:6-12 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Hey friends, Pastor Jimmy here. I want to invite you to this week’s episode of the Authentic Life podcast and our message called “Grace In, Gratitude Grown, Generosity Out.”
We’re looking at how God’s greatest gift in John 3:16 shows us that generosity starts in the heart — and how what we release into God’s hands can create a harvest far beyond what we see.
If you’re ready to live with open hands, deeper purpose, and a heart shaped by God’s love, don’t miss “Grace In, Gratitude Grown, Generosity Out.”

If you’ve ever cried out for God’s help, waited on His timing, or longed to grow deeper in gratitude, this episode will speak directly to your heart.

"Faith Drives Actions" Luke 7:36-50 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Hey friends, this is Pastor Jimmy, and I want to personally invite you to join me for this week’s episode of the Authentic Life podcast.
The message is called “Faith Drives Actions,” and we’re talking about what real faith looks like when it’s put into motion. Faith isn’t just believing something — it’s believing so deeply that it changes the way you live, love, and lead every day.
When our faith is alive, it shows up in our choices, our compassion, and our courage. It pushes us to move when fear says “stay still,” to give when the world says “keep,” and to trust when life doesn’t make sense.

“Reaping with Joy God’s Harvest of Blessing.” Psalms126 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Have you ever gone through a season where you felt like all you were doing was sowing — sowing prayers, sowing effort, sowing tears, and wondering if you’d ever see the results?
In this final message of our Harvest of the Heart series, we’re talking about the joy that comes when God brings the increase, when the seeds planted in faith finally break through into blessing.
So whether you’re in a season of planting, growing, or waiting, this message will remind you that God’s harvest always comes in His time, and when it does, it brings joy that overflows.

"Harvest of the Heart: Waiting on God’s Timing" Ecc.3:1-11 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Have you ever felt like God is running late? Like you’re praying, believing, doing all the right things… but nothing seems to be moving?
In today’s message, “Waiting on God’s Timing, Patience in the Process,” we’re going to look at what Scripture says about the seasons of waiting, those in-between moments when faith is tested, trust is stretched, and patience is grown. From Ecclesiastes 3, we’re reminded that there is a time for everything and that God makes all things beautiful in His time. Waiting isn’t a punishment; it’s preparation. God is working in ways you can’t see to bring about something far greater than you can imagine.
So if you’ve ever wondered where God is in the silence, or why His clock doesn’t match yours, this message is for you. Let’s lean in and discover how waiting on God can actually grow what rushing never will.

"Harvest of the Heart: Pulling Weeds & Garnering Growth" Jn. 15:1-8 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Welcome back to the Harvest of the Heart series, where we’re learning how God grows lasting fruit in our lives.
In this week’s message, ‘Cultivating Obedience, Pulling Weeds and Nurturing Growth,’ we look at one of Jesus’ most powerful teachings from John chapter 15. He said, ‘I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.’
Just like a garden needs constant care, pulling weeds, watering, and pruning, our spiritual lives need the same attention. Obedience isn’t about following rules; it’s about staying connected to the Vine and allowing God to shape us into something fruitful and life-giving.
So get ready to dig in as we discover how to pull the weeds that choke our faith, nurture the habits that lead to growth, and trust the Gardener who’s working for our good, even when the pruning hurts.
Here’s Week Two: ‘Cultivating Obedience.’ Let’s grow together.

"Harvest of the Heart: Sowing in Faith" Mark 4:1-9 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Harvest of the Heart asks What seeds are you planting in your life right now? Every choice, every act of faith, every step of obedience shapes the harvest you’ll reap tomorrow. This month at ALF, we’re digging into a brand-new sermon series, Harvest of the Heart. Together we’ll discover how God grows faith, joy, and blessing in our lives when we sow His Word and trust His timing.

"A Clean Slate: Forgiving Others" Matt. 6:14-15 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Welcome back to A Clean Slate! We’ve seen God’s forgiveness for us, we’ve wrestled with forgiving ourselves, and now we tackle the toughest step—forgiving others.
It’s not easy. It’s not natural. But it’s powerful. Forgiveness sets us free, heals relationships, and reflects the very heart of Jesus.

"A Clean Slate: Receiving God's Grace Personally" 1 John 1:9 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

We’re continuing our sermon series “A Clean Slate” this Sunday! Last week, we celebrated God’s amazing forgiveness of us through Jesus. This week, we’re turning the spotlight inward with a powerful message: “Forgiving Ourselves.” So many of us believe God forgives us…but we still struggle to let go of guilt, shame, and regret. What would it look like to truly live free—to see ourselves the way God sees us?  Join us as we unpack how to accept God’s grace personally, release the weight of the past, and step forward with joy.

"A Clean Slate: Our Need for Forgiveness" Rom.3:23 By: Pastor Jimmy Vaughn

Welcome to today’s message from our series A Clean Slate. Everybody loves the idea of a fresh start, a new journal, a clean house, or even that reset button on your phone when things stop working. But the greatest clean slate isn’t found in a gadget or a fresh notebook. It’s found in God’s forgiveness.
In this first part of our series, Clean Slate: God’s Forgiveness of Us, we’ll discover how God, through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ, doesn’t just cover over our mistakes; He completely removes them. Forgiveness is not about ignoring sin; it’s about the debt being fully paid so that we can walk in freedom, peace, and joy.
So grab your Bible, open your heart, and get ready for a message that will remind you: no matter your past, in Christ you can truly have… a clean slate.
