Living The Dream // Is It What You Expected? // The Paradox of Purpose // Charles Metcalf

Published 2021-07-04
Have you ever heard someone say, “I am just living the dream”? In the fourth week of our series, The Paradox of Purpose we learned about the dreams that Joseph had and the impact those dreams had on his life. It wasn’t what he expected and some of the people he thought would be there for him weren’t, but Pastor Charles taught us that as long as you are faithful; favor will follow you! Make sure and check out this message and share it with someone who needs to hear it!

  • I see a warrior in Pastor Charles. So grateful for this message and even more encouraged by his vulnerability.
  • “If you don’t see your dream, serve someone else’s.” This point hit me so hard because I am currently at this stage in my life right now. Such a powerful statement.

    Just left my teaching job and do not have one lined up when I have debt! I feel the Lord's calling me to help children in need of education in other countries. Please pray for me to find a job, but one that is in the Lord's will :)
  • @libellule688
    I will never look at Joseph’s story the same way after today, wow, so insightful !! Great teaching.Thank you. 🙌
  • @parfaite_ts
    This sermon is deeper than we could all comprehend. Holy Spirit is needed to make us understand that our Purpose is not just about "us" but about "Giving God". Selah. Couldn't hold the tears.
  • @abbasjoy4785
    This was such an powerful message. My purpose is not about me, it's about Jesus!! Praise God. God bless Pastor Charles, I thank the Holy Spirit on how He's using you ro build up the body of Christ.

    This is soooooo on time. I'm literally walking out almost everything I've been praying for. New certifications, New job, New environments......but no one told me I would be hurting for about 6 weeks financially. I know this is a necessary season and process, but I'm tired of being stressed about money 💰😔😪. Y'all pray for me. Thanks fam.
  • @Fatherrdiff
    I have to be honest. Hearing this guy preach made me feel something I haven’t felt since a child in church. I miss this feeling. Not saying I’m emotional but this definitely hits home. Thanks man. 🙏🏽
  • I think God just saved my life through this sermon 😭😭😭😭 I’m in a really dark moment in my life and I was ready to give up 💔 what a powerful revelation 🔥🔥 Oh God, you are so good even when it makes no sense! 😭
  • @theesabrinab
    This is what interpreting the Bible and preaching it IS. I will always support TC!
  • The revelation that is given about this scripture that we have heard all of our lives is mind blowing….Always thought Joseph was the grain….Not about Joseph, it’s about Jesus (Bread of life)….Our dream should not to be about us - it’s about serving (representing) Jesus/giving God.🙏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
  • I’m so glad I finish this series on Feb 5 2022. My birthday is on Monday Feb 7. Everyone telling me to have fun your birthday weekend. I said no thank you I never been a hanging out clubbing person. I said today I’m not going to study I am going to do laundry 🧺 and watch all the sermons that I miss with TC nation!!!. I am so glad I watch it.
  • @RaYcheP
    Pastor Charles always gets emotional, it's very authentic. I love how he preaches :)
  • @candacemoon6090
    I was in my word this morning right before church came online searching for confirmation. Then, less than an hour later, God literally spoke through you to me. This is One of the best sermons I have EVER heard! I couldn’t even take notes I was so focused. You ate and left no crumbs, Pastor Charles, awesome awesome!!
  • @madivirden443
    You know God is in a message when you want to go directly to HIM after you hear it. When the message draws you closer to HIS heart and truth. This was deep but clear and so beautifully and perfectly put. Thank you P Charles for being obedient to the Spirit because we have all been blessed by it. And thank you Jesus for being the grain we all need 🙌🏼🌾🍞
  • @tho766637
    I'm gonna need Pastor Metcalf not to be all up in my business! I feel exposed lol. I'm working on it, alright?! The sermon hit me when he said "they'll remember me if I do such and such;" or "if I serve them for 6 months, then I'll get what I need for the next level." Sir. Sir. Thank you for telling me about myself. I have a lot to think about and work through with Christ. That's why TC is my church - we HOT!!!
  • @Jesusgurl11
    Lord, God blessed Pastor Charles to literally bring clarification of what Joseph's dream was: Jesus. I'm so grateful to have heard this message. I was truly blessed by the series.
