Forward City Church
At Forward City Church we engage and redefine culture for the unchurched and overchurched. Tune in each week as our Pastors Travis Greene and Dr. Jackie Greene take us deeper into God's presence through His word.
GET A GOOD NAME
What if the greatest battle of your life isn't against your circumstancesâbut against the labels you've believed about yourself?
In this powerful message from Genesis 32:27â28, we journey through Jacob's life-changing encounter with God and discover that a good name is worth fighting for. Before God changed Jacob's future, He confronted Jacob's identity. Through honesty, dependence, and vision, God transformed a deceiver into Israelâa man who would carry the promise of generations.
Your identity isn't found in your past, your failures, or the names others...
WATCH YOUR MOUTH
What if the greatest battle you're fighting isn't around you... but coming out of your own mouth?
This week, we're confronting one of the most overlooked spiritual disciplines: the words we speak. Every conversation is an opportunity to come into agreement with God's promiseâor with the enemy's lie.
Your words aren't empty.
They're forming atmospheres.
They're shaping families.
They're influencing generations.
Before you speak over your marriage...
Before you speak over your children...
Before you speak over your future...
Ask yourself:
"Do...
SORRY, I'VE GOT TRUST ISSUES
Some of us don't struggle because God has been unfaithfulâwe struggle because life has taught us not to trust.
In this message, Pastor Jamal Hegwood invites us back to the heart of Proverbs 3:5â6, reminding us that trusting God isn't passive; it's surrender. As we learn to trust His heart, His voice, and His design, we discover the freedom that comes from living according to His plan instead of our own understanding.
This message is an invitation to lay down fear, control, and disappointmentâand trust the One who has always been faithful.

God's Plan
What if God's first plan for changing the world wasn't government, church, or even a nation?
It was family.
In this powerful message, we journey through the life of Abraham to discover that family has always been God's strategy for discipleship, legacy, and transformation. No matter your season of lifeâsingle, married, a parent, grandparent, teenager, or young adultâthis message will challenge you to build a household that reflects God's original design.
You'll discover how to:
- Pursue His Voice
- Live at the Altar
- Abid...
IF ONLY YOU KNEW WHAT GOD WAS UP TO
What if your greatest breakthrough isnât in front of you⌠but underneath the boat?
In this powerful message, Pastor Travis Greene teaches from Luke 5 and reminds us that even when we donât see results, God is still working. Just because your nets seem empty doesnât mean Heaven is inactive. God is preparing blessings, opportunities, and breakthrough beneath the surface.
If youâve been waiting, praying, sowing, or wondering if God has forgotten you, this message will strengthen your faith and encourage you to keep going. You...
THANK GOD I SURVIVED IT
How did you make it through everything that tried to take you out?
In this powerful message, we're reminded that God's protection, grace, and faithfulness have carried us through every challenge, setback, disappointment, and battle. What should have broken you didn't. What should have stopped you couldn't. Through every storm, God made a way for you to surviveâand not just survive, but triumph.
As you listen, consider:
⢠What has God brought you through that you haven't stopped to celebrate?
⢠Are you giving God glory for your progress, even if you're not where you wa...
SPACE MAKER
What if the very thing you see as failure is actually creating room for God to do something greater?
In this powerful message from the Netflex and Chill series, Pastor Jamal delivers a life-changing word titled âSpace Maker,â challenging us to stop viewing our empty places as evidence of Godâs absence and start seeing them as opportunities for His presence.
Using Luke 5 and the story of Simon Peterâs empty fishing boat, Pastor Jamal reveals a profound truth: Jesus didnât choose a boat that was full of fishâHe ch...
NO HELP, NO HARVEST
What if the very thing God promised you is too heavy to carry alone?
In âNo Help, No Harvest,â we dive into Luke 5:7 and uncover a powerful truth: some blessings will break your nets if you refuse partnership. After a night of failure, Simon Peter obeys Jesus and experiences a miracle so overwhelming that he has to shout for help before he loses the harvest.
This message confronts isolation, ego, and the pressure to carry everything by yourself. Because sometimes the reason youâre overwhelmed isnât because God abandoned you â itâs because the harvest was...
WHAT'S YOUR NET WORTH?
Your net can only hold what it's been prepared to carry.
Before Jesus called fishermen to catch people, He found them washing their nets after a disappointing night. Yet what felt like failure was actually preparation for one of the greatest invitations ever given: "From now on, you will fish for people."
Before God changes your assignment, He often repairs your net.

Break It Before It Breaks You
In this powerful message from the âNetflix & Chillâ series, we dive into Luke 5 and the moment Simon Peterâs nets began to break under the weight of the blessing God released. Through this story, weâre challenged to confront the habits, mindsets, memories, and methods that can no longer carry where God is taking us.
THIS IS JUST A SETUP
In this powerful message, Pastor Travis Greene launches the âNetflix and Chillâ sermon series with a transformational word titled: âThis Is Just a Setup.â Through Luke 5 and the story of Peterâs miraculous catch of fish, this sermon reveals how God often uses disruption, disappointment, and even success to redirect us into deeper purpose.
The Cry of a Desperate Mother
In this powerful Motherâs Day message, Elder Charletha Green delivers a faith-filled word centered on âThe Call of a Desperate Motherâ â reminding every mother, parent, guardian, and believer that persistent faith still moves the heart of God.
God Won't Let Me Die Yet
In this powerful message, âGod Wonât Let Me Die Yet,â Travis Greene breaks down the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, a prophet who experienced a major victory⌠and then immediately fell into exhaustion, fear, and despair. This message is for anyone who feels tired, drained, or ready to quit.
Elijah wasnât weak, he was empty. And instead of rebuking him, God refueled him.
Gardeners and Snake Killers
In this powerful message, Apostle Tomi Arayomi unpacks the strength, wisdom, nurture, and spiritual authority woven into the identity of a woman. From Deborah arising as a mother in Israel, to the wisdom of true motherhood, to women who preserved generations through courage and discernment. This message explores the sacred role women carry in building, protecting, and sustaining life.
Deliverance Is For Everyone
In todayâs powerful conversation, Pastor Travis Greene and Pastor Bev Tucker dive deep into deliverance... what it really is, why it matters, and how it shows up in ways most people overlook. From generational bondage to hidden mental patterns, this message brings clarity, conviction, and freedom.
The Right Response
What is the right response when God calls, challenges, or redirects your life? In this message, âThe Right Response,â we walk through powerful passages of Scripture to uncover what it truly means to respond to God with obedience, humility, and
He Made A Way
In this encouraging and faith-filled message, âHe Made a Way,â we are reminded that no matter how impossible the situation may seem, God is always working behind the scenes to create a path where there appears to be none.
AMERICAN IDOLS
Whatâs really shaping your decisions, desires, and direction in life? In this powerful message, we dive into Galatians 5 and uncover the internal battle between the flesh, the Spirit and the six âthronesâ competing for control of your heart.
God Don't Do Mix
Pastor Travis Greene delivers a powerful message titled âGod Donât Do Mix,â calling the church back to purity in worship, identity, and devotion. In this message, we are reminded that God does not share His glory with idols and He does not mix holiness with compromise.
GOD+
In this message, we start a brand new series called âGOD+â a deep look at how easily we can place things beside God in our hearts. From idols we donât recognize, to generational battles we inherit, to distractions that slowly take priority over Him, this sermon challenges us to return to the foundation of true devotion.
Let The light In
In this powerful message, we explore what happens when spiritual darkness covers a land â and how revival begins when we choose to let the light of God back in. Through Exodus 10:20â23, we see the stark contrast between Egyptâs darkness and the light that remained over Godâs people. The question is: where have we allowed darkness to linger in our own lives?
There's Something Under the House
In Joshua 7, Israel experiences unexpected defeat, not because God failed them, but because compromise was hidden beneath the surface. What was buried in Achanâs tent affected an entire nation.
Housekeeping Pt. 2
In Part 2 of Housekeeping, Pastor Travis Greene continues unpacking what it looks like to allow God to deal with the hidden places of our hearts. Before God brings public victory, He calls us to private obedience â to inspect whatâs planted around us, tear down idols, and live with clean hands and a pure heart.
Housekeeping Pt. 1
In this message, we journey through the story of Gideon to uncover how revival doesnât start in crowds it starts in the home. Before God breathes life into dry bones, He deals with hidden idols. Before He sends power, He calls for obedience. This is about spiritual house-keeping, breaking cycles, and declaring: it stops with me.
West Wind
In todayâs message, Dr. Jackie Greene continues our Winds of Revival series with a powerful word titled âWest Wind.â
The West Wind represents the wind of restoration â the movement of God that doesnât just bring life, but clears what has been lingering too long. Drawing from Exodus 10:19, Dr. Jackie teaches how the West Wind came and swept away the locusts, reminding us that when God sends His wind, it comes to remove loss, restore what was stolen, and make room for renewal.
Through Ezekiel 37, we see how the breath of God brings dry bones back...
EAST WIND
In this powerful teaching, we explore the winds of God and how each direction represents a divine work in the life of the believer, from removal and repentance to renewal and freedom. Drawing from Ezekiel 37, Exodus 14, and Genesis 14, this message calls us to prepare for what God is doing now, not later.
This is a word for those who feel stuck between bondage and breakthrough. There is no Plan B, only obedience, surrender, and faith in the God who parts seas and revives dry bones.
South Wind
Pastor Travis Greene delivers a powerful and prophetic message titled âSouth Windâ as part of our Winds of Revival series and our Word of the Year. Drawing from Ezekiel 37, this sermon calls us into a season of renewal, restored passion, and revived faith as God releases the South Wind to breathe life into dry places. This message will challenge you to confront limitations, tear down idols, and make room for Godâs renewing breath to move again. When God breathes, passion spreads.
North Wind
In this powerful sermon, North Wind, we explore how God uses the winds of repentance, brokenness, and obedience to bring true revival. Drawing from Ezekiel 37, Jeremiah, and 2 Chronicles, this message calls believers to open their hearts, respond to prophetic declaration, and understand the cost of genuine anointing.
Revival doesnât begin with emotion, it begins with repentance. Let the North Wind blow and awaken dry bones to life again.
WORD CARRIER
Pastor Travis Greene delivers a powerful message titled âWord Carrierâ at Forward City Church, reminding us that when God speaks, His Word must be carried, believed, and birthed. This sermon explores the power, reliability, and peace found in Godâs Word, encouraging believers to trust what God has spokenâeven before they see it fulfilled.
âNo word from God will ever fail.â (Luke 1:37)
Be encouraged, challenged, and strengthened as you listen.
A Word to The Remnant
In this powerful and timely message, Prophetess Barbara Calloway delivers A Word for the Remnantâa clarion call to those who have remained faithful in uncertain times. Drawing from 1 Kings 19:9 and 1 Timothy 4:1, this sermon exposes the demonic agenda, confronts spiritual isolation, and calls believers back to truth, accountability, and perseverance in God.
If youâve ever felt like you were âthe only one left,â hiding in a cave while the world shifts around you, this word is for you. Be encouraged, challenged, and strengthened as the Lord speaks directly to the remnant.

THAT'S NOT MY PLACE
THEY DIDN'T BURY YOU, GOD PLANTED YOU
WEEK 6: PLANTED ON PURPOSE [P.O.P đĽ] | Pastor Travis Greene
Pastor Travis Greene brought a message that hit the heart and shifted the room. Walking us through the life of Joseph â from the pit, to slavery, to prison, to the palace â he showed us how every season was actually a seed. What looked like burial was Godâs intentional planting. đđ˝đą
Because Heâs Alpha and Omega, you can rest knowing nothing in your life is random. Not one moment is wasted. Not one setback is a surprise to Him. Even the things that happen SUDDENLY đŽâđ¨ â Heâs already in it.

DON'T BELIEVE ME JUST WATCH
In this powerful message, weâre reminded that God has given us power, love, and a sound mind â and the authority to walk boldly in who He called us to be. Through Scripture, revelation, and practical truths, this sermon exposes fear for what it is, challenges us to confront what weâve avoided, and equips us to choose transformation over stagnation.
If youâve been battling fear, uncertainty, or cycles you canât seem to break, this message will strengthen your faith and stir your confidence in Godâs promises. Let this word anchor you, grow you, and remind y...
HALFWAY IS NOT THE WHOLE WAY
âHalfway Is Not the Whole Wayâ is a transformative message calling us out of comfort, out of complacency, and into full obedience to God. Using Genesis 12:1â3 as the foundation, this sermon reminds us that partial obedience is still disobedienceâand that the blessing is found when we go all the way with God.
If youâve ever felt stuck, tempted to settle, or unsure about the next step God is asking you to take, this word will give you clarity, courage, and conviction. God has more for you, but you canât stay halfway.

GUARDIANS OF THE GARDEN
This message, Guardians of the Garden, reminds us that being planted in the house of the Lord isnât just about being presentâitâs about being protected, positioned, and purposed.
In Psalm 92, weâre told that those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish. But like Nehemiah and the builders of Jerusalemâs wall, there are times when flourishing requires fightingâguarding what God has called us to build.
Nehemiahâs story shows us how the people prayed, posted guards, and worked with a weapon in one hand and a tool in the ot...
I'M NOT USED TO THIS
In this powerful teaching, we dive deep into the significance of reverence, consecration, and praise as seen in 1 Chronicles 15 & 16, Acts 3, and Jeremiah 1.
đ David reminds the Levites of their divine responsibility â to carry the Ark of the Lord the right way, not out of routine, but with holiness and honor. When whatâs holy becomes common, our convictions bow to convenience. But God is calling us back to reverence. đ

PLEASE DON'T BE SHADY
PLEASE DONâT BE SHADY đż
Scripture:
Jonah 4:1â5 (NIV)
But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry.
2 He prayed to the Lord, âIsnât this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity.
3 Now, Lord, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live.â

PREPARE FOR OUTPOUR
PREPARE FOR OUTPOUR
Scripture Focus: Joel 2:23 (NKJV)
âBe glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God; for He has given you the former rain faithfully, and He will cause the rain to come down for youâthe former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.â
God is releasing a fresh outpouring of His Spirit â the kind that revives, restores, and refreshes everything thatâs been dry. When God sends rain, itâs not random â itâs revival.
Main Points:
Prepare for Outpour â God is faithful to send rain in it...
I'M CARRYING A MOVE
What are you carrying?Â
For real⌠are you carrying the presence of God, or just going through the motions? In 2 Samuel 6, David realized the Ark couldnât be handled any kind of way. Uzzah touched what wasnât his to carry and lost his life. But when the Ark rested at Obed-Edomâs house, everything in his life started getting blessed.
You canât give what you donât have. Thatâs why Peter said, âI donât have silver or gold⌠but what I do have, I give.â The question isâwhat do you have to give? When you ca...
I CAN'T GIVE WHAT I DON'T HAVE
đĽ I Canât Give What I Donât Have đĽ
Let me ask you this: what do you really have to give?
Have you ever considered that sometimes people are asking you for something you donât have⌠but God has placed something greater inside of you? The man at the gate called Beautiful thought he needed silver and gold, but what he truly needed was healing. Peter and John couldnât give him money, but they carried something far more valuable â the power of Jesus.
Hereâs the question: what are you carrying? When the world place...
