Michael Todd | – Living The Dream // Is It What You Expected? // The Paradox of Purpose // Charles Metcalf
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!
Join us for service online every Sunday at 11am (CST) and on Monday’s for Monday Night Prayer at 6pm (CST).

Small talk , off and on with it with my mental health
Can someone explain to me how can someone be a godly follower of God and at the same time cover himself in luxury clothing?
Thank you again Charles for this wonderful msg. I've been watching your sermons for years now, and watching how far you've come and how much you've grown is such an empowering sight and truly gave me and people around hope. I Heard that you had struggles in the past and had overcome it, I pray that you always know that God is faithful and ready to come to you whenever and wherever. God bless you
Is he gonna explain the bundles story? I feel like this guy is everywhere but the word and talking about himself too often.
Your purpose is always about service, not status bless you, pastor, I understand that this is the hit point for me & all of us as Christian we call for not to build status, just to serve the almighty God and his people.
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 🙂
I’m not good at small talk
Pastor Charles…….your the man! I thoroughly enjoyed this series and this opportunity to get to know you better, and see Gods presence in you Sir! Thank you for truly allowing God to speak through you and blessing all of us.
Charles is a powerful teacher.
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!!!
Good Word bro. I hope more people get their eyes and ears on this
PLEASE JUST GIVE GOD <3 Beautiful message Pastor Charles !!!!!
3 days later I want to come back to exclaim how amazing this sermon was!!! damn
I'm so broken up watching this…. Can't stop crying. Grain…it was always about the Grain. Wow
If My hand is on you, you are in purpose right where you are" – Love, God. Smh
I can’t explain how Holy Spirit breathed a song on me in the wee hours of Sunday morning that He’d enable me finish on Monday, only to watch this sermon today, Thursday the 7th of July, and find that it’s all connected. I didn’t conclude on a title for the song till this sermon and series began to wrap up. It’s called “Present in Us”. Thank you Pastor Charles for being the obedient vessel through which this light will shine always. Thank you TCN.
I've been following TC since the beginning….before the blow up… and i just want to say that I am loving the journey of growth in Charles. I didn't like his sermons a few years ago. I thought he was corny and whack. I could see his passion, but the delivery wasn't there.
But THIS….THIS RIGHT HERE….is E V E R Y T H I N G!!!
He is confident, accurate, his fit is dripping, and he is snatching edges left and right! lol.
I can see that he is in his element….in his purpose…
Thank you Charles!
Amazing message! Exactly what I needed to hear and in perfect timing.
He so right. But sounds very angry. Prayers to you Charles
Living the dream is NOT about trying to be God is it about giving God – Wooooha
Amen Amen Amen…. this was so so so good… praise God…. God is so good
so amazing Pastor
This message hit the bullseye on so many levels!!! Gave me words to express what I’ve been feeling yet could not explain. Thank you Pastor Charles for releasing this word from the Lord!!
Watch all the way till the end … POWERFUL
C'mon Pastor Charles!!! This was so good. What a high ending. Thank you for telling us the truth. Thank you for preaching the Word of God for what it is. I'm TRANSFORMED!
So awesome. You are truly a vessel for Holy Spirit. We see you, we feel you, we encourage you to keep going!!
"THE ULTIMATE PARADOX OF PURPOSE IS THAT PURPOSE IS NOT EVEN ABOUT YOU! It is, but it isn’t. You are important but not as important. It’s not “watch me do it,” but “God you do you.” You wanna be in purpose? GIVE IT GOD. THE STORY IS ABOUT HIM! HIS PRESENCE IS WHAT VALIDATES PURPOSE. IF HE’S WITH ME, THIS IS THE DREAM." wow.
Thank you so much for this sermon series! It is just what I've needed.
This is powerful.
Pastor Charles, thank you for this message series. I have been in a period of time questioning my purpose. This message has given me encouragement about my journey (both past and future). May God continue to bless you and your family.
Thank You So Much Charles! You don’t even know or understand the capacity of what this sermon means to me. My souls needed to hear this!
