Forward Church Irvington

For Palm Sunday, Pastor Justin brings a message reminding us to not forsake the seasons of sowing seed. Just like the farmer, the prayers and faith of His people are producing growth. The fields are ready, the harvest is coming, and what God has done before, He will do greater than before.

In today's sermon, Pastor Justin Driver shares Zechariah 3 to reveal God's plan to remove filthy garments of sin and replace them with new garments (righteousness). Pastor Justin reminds the congregation we are not defined by our past. God silences the accuser, restores identity, and calls us to walk free, leaving behind shame, guilt, and spiritual grave clothes. When God removes the filthy garments, He calls His people to walk in contagious joy.

In this week's sermon, Pastor Caleb Turner highlights how everything flows from the source of love. He teaches the importance of understanding that love must come first; love is not a byproduct but a gauge of authentic, Christ-centered transformation. Before God’s people pursue spiritual gifts, they must first aspire to love.

Pastor Justin expands on last week's message with a focus on the current-day purpose of the church. He teaches that God has appointed His people throughout history to a certain time and purpose, and today's church has a specific task that is tailored to this generation. "Your moment in history is not coincidence. You were divinely appointed."

Pastor Justin is joined by Pastor Caleb to discuss the current issues occurring in the Middle East. They focus on how the church needs to respond to these situations, and they emphasize the church should operate in readiness rather than fear.

In this message, Pastor Justin Driver teaches that the Church is not man-made or accidental, but conceived in eternity, birthed by the Spirit, and formed in Christ. He reminds us that the Church is a new-creation people, marked by sacrificial, Christlike love—not just an organization. Because our origin is eternal, Pastor Justin encourages us to live with confidence, knowing our future is secure and our destiny is glory.

Pastor Justin counters cultural misconceptions around tithing while expressing the biblical necessity of giving to God's kingdom and the results promised in Scripture following His people's faithfulness.

In today's message, Pastor Justin expresses the necessity of spiritually leading our families, being intentional, and taking authority for the sake of our children's trajectory. Pastor Justin shares how spiritual leadership from mentors in his life equipped him for pastoral ministry.

Pastor Justin and Pastor Jonston review and dive deeper into, "Abraham: A Faith that Builds Families (Part 3)". Pastor Justin emphasizes God's intention to call us higher, and the purpose of experiencing valley seasons is to come out stronger than before.

In Part 3 of Abraham: A Faith That Builds Families, Pastor Justin Driver teaches that God is calling His people higher. Genesis 13 shows Abram going up from Egypt—out of a past season and back into purpose. Faith is a journey that requires staying planted in God’s house, returning to our first love, and rebuilding the altar of worship. This message reminds us that this is not a season to settle, but a season to rise and grow higher with God.

Referencing Genesis 12, Pastor Justin teaches the congregation about the effects of pressure on marriage and relationships. He explains how God's favor does not exempt us from tension, using Abram and Sarai's entry in Egypt as an example. "Pressure reveals where we run," Pastor Justin shares, and he tells of the dangers of running to worldly solutions while highlighting the benefits of finding refuge in God.

Pastor Justin Driver teaches that God builds families and legacy through obedient faith, not comfort. Like Abraham leaving Ur and Peter stepping out of the boat, believers must “get out” of old mindsets and comfort zones. Obedience releases God’s promises, while settling delays them—because safety never produces legacy, obedience does

Pastor Justin shares a powerful message reminding us that God is sovereign and alive—He does whatever He pleases—unlike lifeless idols that leave people spiritually empty. The church is called to reject dead religion and live in the power, joy, and utterance of the Holy Spirit. When we welcome Him, we are filled with life, power, and purpose. The prayer of the believer is simple: “God, do whatever You please."

Pastor Justin and Pastor Cassie share with us for Day 2 of our 7-Day "Prayer and Fasting".

In today's sermon, Pastor Justin shares how the flesh opposes God and slowly destroys spiritual life if left unchecked. It must be crucified daily through surrender, walking in the Spirit, and disciplines like fasting, leading to freedom, life, and renewal through the cross.

Pastor Justin and Pastor Cassie share with us for Day 1 of our 7-Day "Prayer and Fasting".

In today's sermon, Pastor Justin shares with us that Jesus is the eternal Light who shines into darkness. From His life and miracle to the cross and resurrection, darkness never overcame Him. Today, that same light lives in us, bringing salvation, freedom, healing, and a new life.

In today's sermon, Pastor Justin reminds us to look back on 2025 to remember God's faithfulness throughout the year. He shares that rejoicing for what God has done will build our faith to prepare for what is to come.

In today's sermon, Pastor Justin shares his vision for Forward Church going into 2026. He speaks on "The Year of the Ladder", a year where God uses His people to connect Heaven to Earth.
