Before David ever wore a crown, he was just a shepherd with a harp—and a heart fully surrendered to God. While others saw insignificance, God saw a king. In this message, we explore how David was chosen, anointed, and set apart even when no one else believed in him. His story is proof that God’s calling often comes before the platform—and His timing is never accidental. Don’t miss the powerful start to David’s journey and what it might reveal about your own.

At GO Church, we believe in honoring the role of fathers and the power of transformation through Jesus. In this special Father’s Day message, we hear an incredible story from Marcus—a story that speaks directly to the heart of identity, purpose, and redemption. Marcus shares his journey from growing up without a father, chasing an NFL dream, and falling into addiction, to encountering the life-changing love of God. When everything seemed lost, God stepped in and began to restore what was broken. Through honesty, passion, and bold faith, Marcus challenges us to live fully surrendered and discover who we truly are in Christ. This message is a powerful reminder that the love of our Heavenly Father can heal every wound, break every chain, and rewrite any story.

Pastor JC kicks off our Ask Way series, addressing one of the most common and challenging topics—the problem of sin.
