    What in the World is Happening to Me?!
    2026/10/13
    Today on the CityLight Church Podcast, Pastor Bo challenges believers to take an honest look at the habits and choices that may be holding them back from experiencing God's best. Teaching from 1 Corinthians 4 and Luke 16, he explores the importance of faithful stewardship and shares seven areas worth examining, from managing money and speaking life-giving words to using time wisely, receiving correction, and maintaining personal integrity. Rather than approaching change through guilt or condemnation, Pastor Bo encourages listeners to recognise the barriers they may have unknowingly created and allow the Holy Spirit to transform them. This practical and thought-provoking message is an invitation to move beyond spiritual stagnation, become faithful with what God has already entrusted to you, and make room for His blessings to flow. 00:00 Introduction: The Power of Your Words and Stewardship 01:02 Welcome and Announcements: Connecting with City Light 07:03 Growth Track and Membership: The Biblical Model 12:12 The Message Begins: What in the World is Happening to Me 17:27 Stewardship Point One: How You Handle Money 20:20 Personal Testimony: From 63K in Debt to Freedom 26:20 Stewardship Point Two: The Power of Your Speech 31:43 Stewardship Point Three: Treating People Who Can't Benefit You 33:26 Breaking the Taker Spirit: Making a Living by Giving 38:44 Stewardship Point Four: How You Use Your Time 41:02 Stewardship Point Five: How You Respond to Correction 43:57 The Demoniac and Mental Health: Sitting Down as a Disciple 45:37 Stewardship Point Six: What You Do When No One is Watching 50:29 Stewardship Point Seven: Managing Sexual Purity 55:43 The Science and Spirit of Sexual Union 58:08 Communion: Receiving the Five-Fold Benefits of the Cross https://citylightnyc.com/

  • The Power and Blessing of a Surrendered Life

    The Power and Blessing of a Surrendered Life
    2026/09/15
    In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, Pastor Bo continues his teaching on righteousness by exploring its natural response: surrendering to the lordship of Jesus. When we understand how completely Christ has forgiven, accepted, and loved us, surrender is no longer about religious obligation—it becomes an act of trust. Through Scripture and the examples of Mary and Jesus, Pastor Bo challenges believers to stop doing what seems right in their own eyes and invite God into every area of their lives. This message is a call to move beyond knowing Jesus only as Savior, trust Him as Lord, and discover the freedom that comes from a fully yielded life. 00:00 Introduction: Earning Your Way Back or Already Forgiven 01:05 Welcome and the Foundation of Righteousness 02:39 Boldness Through Righteousness: Breaking Religious Fear 05:26 Total Forgiveness and the Porta Potty Analogy 07:08 The Natural Progression: From Forgiveness to Lordship 09:03 Why Do You Call Me Lord and Not Do What I Say 12:36 Two Builders: The House on Rock vs Sand 14:29 God's Commands Are For Your Good Not Control 18:14 The Test of Lordship: Crawling Through the Tunnel 19:54 Doing What's Right in Your Own Eyes vs God's Way 24:02 Good Ideas vs God Ideas: The Importance of Relationship 25:36 Mary's Surrender: Behold the Maidservant of the Lord 30:20 Is God's Will a Priority in Your Life 32:13 Tasting and Seeing That the Lord is Good 33:32 Seeking Your Own vs Seeking Christ: Timothy's Example 38:43 You Were Bought With a High Price 40:46 The Story of Betrayal and Surrendered Hearts 43:38 God Blesses Surrendered Hearts Not Perfect People 45:51 Communion and Consecration: Not My Will But Yours https://citylightnyc.com/

  • The Truth That Breaks Condemnation

    The Truth That Breaks Condemnation
    2026/09/08
    In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, Pastor Bo unpacks the life-changing truth of what it means to be made righteous through Jesus. Teaching from 2 Corinthians 5, he explains why our standing with God is not determined by feelings, failures, or our own good works, but by the finished work of Christ. This message challenges believers to break free from guilt, shame, and condemnation, embrace who God says they are, and approach Him with confidence. When you understand that righteousness is a gift rather than something you earn, it can transform your prayer life, strengthen your faith, and change the way you see yourself, God, and His promises. 00:00 Introduction: Breaking Free from Condemnation 01:05 Welcome and the Problem of Condemnation 06:53 Feelings vs. Scripture: Who God Really Is 11:38 2 Corinthians 5:21: The Great Exchange 14:03 Jesus Became the Serpent on the Cross 16:42 Who We Were Apart from Christ 18:11 Righteousness: You Is or You Ain't 26:31 The Question: Who's More Righteous? 33:58 Colossians 1: Holy, Blameless, and Above Reproach 42:05 Breaking Through Unworthiness and Promotion 44:51 Promises for the Righteous: Favor and Blessing 51:02 Glory Means Money: The Truth About Prosperity 56:57 Proverbs 15:6: Much Treasure in the House of the Righteous https://citylightnyc.com/

    Jesus Wants His Stuff Back
    2026/09/01
    In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, guest speaker David Wagner delivers a passionate call to move beyond simply hearing the Word and begin responding to what God is doing. Through biblical teaching, personal testimony, and the story of blind Bartimaeus, David challenges believers to release the fear, disappointment, pain, and old identities they were never meant to carry. With a reminder that revelation requires a response, this message encourages you to leave the past behind, step forward in faith, and surrender everything Jesus has already carried on your behalf. 00:00 Introduction: The Season of Talk is Over - Time to Move 01:12 Welcome and Prophetic Word: The Great Drawing 04:46 The Dwelling Place: Everything You Need is in the House 06:47 Supernatural Surprises and Fresh Bread for Today 08:50 Breaking Free from Distortion and Confusion 10:40 The Fear of the Lord and Seeing God Rightly 11:25 Abraham's Faith: Looking for the City God is Building 14:06 Changing Your Perspective: Past vs Future 15:41 Seasons and Spiritual Appetite: Eating What God Provides 16:49 Five Ways God Answers Prayer: Yes, No, Wait, Go, Grow 18:43 The Battle is the Lord's: Forward March 20:46 Exodus 14: Stop Talking and Start Moving 22:18 Breaking Cycles: From Talk to Action 24:26 Anything Jesus Touches Changes 25:45 Jesus Wants His Stuff Back: The Central Message 26:09 Personal Testimony: Facing Fear and the Fear of Rejection 32:52 Mark 10: Blind Bartimaeus and Perceiving Jesus 38:05 Your Faith Has Made You Whole 39:58 The Popsicle Story: If You Can, You Will 42:47 Unloading What Doesn't Belong to You 47:13 Altar Call: Salvation and Rededication 48:15 Personal Ministry and Prophetic Words 58:50 Final Declaration: Greatest Days Are Ahead 59:36 Special Word: God Sent Me for You https://citylightnyc.com/

  • How to Prosper in Famine: Part Two

    How to Prosper in Famine: Part Two
    2026/08/25
    In this episode of the CityLight Church Podcast, Nathaniel St. Eloi continues his teaching on prospering in the midst of famine through the story of Isaac in Genesis 26. What happens when circumstances look barren, but God tells you to stay? Nathaniel challenges believers to become deeply planted in God, His Word, prayer, community, and the place He has called them to be rather than searching for an easier path. Exploring the difference between shallow Christianity and a life rooted in the Holy Spirit, he encourages listeners to trust God beyond what they can see, allow Him to do the deeper work within, and remain faithful even when the conditions around them seem contrary to His promises. 00:00 Introduction: No More Shallow Christianity 00:26 Welcome and the Language Heaven Responds To 01:20 The Toy Story: Understanding Heaven's Language 05:02 Genesis 26: Isaac's Famine and God's Promise 13:57 Stay Where God Called You: The Power of Being Planted 18:08 Jeremiah 17: The Shrub vs The Tree 21:34 Removing the Veil: Seeing God's Goodness 24:08 Internal Transformation Over External Circumstances 38:58 Deep Roots: No More Shallow Living 47:05 Psalm 92: Planted People Flourish and Bear Fruit 52:50 Isaac Sows in the Land of Famine 56:19 Supernatural Prosperity and Continued Blessing 58:24 Altar Call: Sowing in Your Season of Famine 1:03:21 Confession of Faith: Satisfied in Days of Famine https://citylightnyc.com/
