Single and Secure by Rich Wilkerson Jr.

You’ve got your list of nonnegotiables down pat. You know exactly what you want in a significant other. What’s not obvious is you're probably getting lost in a crowd of culture urging you to get into a relationship so you can finally live your best life.

Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. shares the talk “Single and Secure” to encourage singles to put effort toward personal development. He reminds us that it first takes healthy individuals to form healthy relationships.

The prospect of getting into a relationship can shift our focus from the blessings right in front of us. Yet the benefits of being single can open up to us if we're willing to lean in. Being single isn't a period God is waiting for us to get through. He wants us growing in this season as much as in any other.

The Hannah Hotline by Rich Wilkerson Jr,

Have you ever tried calling into a radio station repeatedly but couldn't get through? As followers of Christ, there's a hotline we can use and never have to worry about a busy signal or hearing a dial tone - our calls always go through to God.

Through Hannah's story, we learn three components of her prayers that we can apply to our lives. First, Hannah prayed from her heart. She embraced the hurt and bitterness she felt, brought that to God and was able to take on God's lens of her life. With prayer, Hannah never tried to impress others. So much so, Eli believed she was drunk in public. But from her situation, we learn that when you're desperate for God, you're not concerned with how you look - only God's attention matters. Finally, Hannah's prayers demonstrate how our prayers should be attached to God's glory. Why do we want the thing we're requesting? And how will God be glorified in you receiving it?

Values: From Obligation To Opportunity by Rich Wilkerson Jr.

Have you ever had to do something that you really didn’t want to do? Maybe it was a chore or an assignment at work. Obligation rarely creates passionate, productive, exciting results. And the truth is, if we’re not careful, we can approach the majority of our lives from the posture of feeling obligated.

Through The Storm by Rich Wilkerson, Jr.

Do you ever go somewhere and find that you can't wait to tell somewhere where you went? For example, you say something like "I went TO Miami," or "I went TO the mall." The truth of the matter is, when you only mention the destination, you're missing a major part of the story - what it actually took to GET there.

Whenever you go somewhere, you always have to go through something.

Values: It's Not Complicated by Rich Wilkerson

Jesus is our message. We are Jesus people, not religious people. Methods will come and go, yet our message will remain the same.

Our relationship with Jesus has to be the foundation of our lives and we must choose to accept his truth by first accepting the grace he freely gives and not basing our perception of the truth on our feelings, friends or fantasies.

Friend Of Sinners: Fast Pass by Rich Wilkerson, Jr.

Have you ever felt like someone received something they didn't deserve? Maybe high praise, a gift or promotion and you think, “That's not fair."

Sometimes it feels like those who aren't believers get a shortcut or "fast pass" to God's blessings in life while we try to live Christ-like and get nothing in return.

Living For Legacy by Rich Wilkerson, Jr.

Friend Of Sinners by Rich Wilkerson, Jr

Why was Jesus accused of being a friend of sinners? Why did he put top priority on relationship not religion, acceptance rather than performance, and value friendship with him before behavior?

In Friend of Sinners, you’ll discover a different Jesus, a Jesus who will radically change the way you see God, yourself, and others—a Jesus who will never give up on you, never stop loving you.

Vision Sunday: Miracle In Motion by Rich Wilkerson, Jr.

If miracles came in a box, they would probably come with some assembly required. Many times, God's miracles are not visible or measurable at first. On Vision Sunday at VOUS Church, Pastor Rich Wilkerson, Jr. identified five materials present in miracles from Mark 2:1-12. The first is the paralytic, or the problem that needs to be solved.

Problems are a prerequisite for a miracle and are a platform for God to show off in our lives. The second material is men. Our biggest ability in the story God is writing is our availability. The third is the house. Every miracle in motion will face real rejection, but obstacles are opportunities in disguise. The fourth is the critic. During every move of God in the Bible, there are always critics on the fringe. The fifth is our Savior, who always delivers the miracle we need right on time.

Life In The Wheelbarrow by Rich Wilkerson, Jr

Trusting God doesn’t always feel sturdy and safe. At times, we might even wonder what we got ourselves into, but when we place our trust in Jesus, he gives us a vision, direction, and constant companionship. These things allow us to go on the journey with a sense of confidence and peace, knowing that while we aren’t exactly sure how, we’re going to safely cross to the other side of any trial we may face.
