Give it Up

November 9, 2025

What if the thing you’re holding onto is the very thing holding you back from God’s purpose for your life?

In this powerful kickoff to our brand new series Kingdom Impact, Pastor Travis Hearn delivers a raw, personal, and deeply challenging message about surrender, sacrifice, and putting God first.

From a teenage dream of playing in the Arizona All-Star Game to choosing a missions trip instead, Pastor Travis shares how giving up what mattered most opened the door to a purpose he never imagined—ultimately becoming the chaplain for the Phoenix Suns for over two decades.

But this message isn’t just about his story—it’s about your story. It’s about that thing in your life that’s fighting for first place.

It’s about burying the seed of selfish ambition so God can raise a harvest of Kingdom impact.

Rooted in Luke 9:23–24 and John 12:24, “Give It UP” challenges us to examine what’s really #1 in our lives.

Are we holding back something God is asking us to surrender?

Are we making excuses that sound valid but keep us from obeying His voice?

This sermon will stir your soul to stop negotiating with God and start honoring Him with your firstfruits—your time, your talents, your treasure, your heart.

Because when we give God the first and best, He blesses the rest.

This isn’t just about money—it’s about mastery.

Who’s really Lord of your life?

Join us as we begin a journey toward radical obedience, sacrificial generosity, and eternal significance.

Because what you give up in faith,

God uses to impact the Kingdom.
