The Potter's House Podcast

When your strength runs out, when fear torments your mind, and when your love falls short, God’s love steps in. In this compassionate message, Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts teaches from John 21, where Jesus meets Peter after his denial. Peter’s love had failed, his confidence was shaken, and he no longer trusted himself. Yet Jesus restored him through love and called him to follow again. That same love is available to you. Real transformation doesn’t come from changing our behavior — it begins with what we allow into our hearts and minds. If you change the input, the output will follow. God’s presence renews your thoughts, restores your identity, and empowers you to walk in freedom. His love casts out fear, steadies your soul, and sustains you when human love falls short. This is a timely word for anyone who needs a reminder: Your story doesn’t end where your love failed. God’s love will meet you there, restore you, and carry you forward.

Life’s challenges are by no means random. They shape you. In this week’s follow-up message to “On the Other Side of Endurance,” Pastor Touré Roberts dives into the power of persistence and perseverance as the defining marks of those who endure. Persistence means staying true to who you are in Christ when pressure comes. Perseverance is the strength to keep moving because you know something is on the other side. Together, they form what Pastor Touré calls a spiritual sophistication that prepares you to overcome trials without losing your identity, your love, or your faith. When the enemy whispers, “You won’t make it,” worship and the Word silence this lie. When offense and hardship try to derail you, perseverance anchors you in God’s truth and keeps your heart pure. Discover how persistence and perseverance unlock the victory God has already secured for you through this profound word.

In Matthew 24, Jesus paints a sobering picture of the “beginning of sorrows” — wars, earthquakes, and trials. At first glance, it’s a hard word. But, as Pastor Touré Roberts shares, within this challenging passage is a powerful truth: There is victory in everything God is involved in. This is not a season to shrink back — it’s a season to endure. Endurance is not punishment, it’s preparation. It’s the conditioning that equips you for purpose. Being who we are created to be in this moment means we have to shift. And as purpose arises, our lives shake under the weight of its disruptive power. Are you feeling increased pressure, facing unexpected battles, and wondering why life is shaking? Let this uplifting word help you see your season through God’s eyes and step into the victory that’s already yours. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Unity is the spiritual force at the heart of God’s kingdom, made possible by the cross. In this piercing message, Pastor Sheryl Brady reminds us: unity isn’t optional in the kingdom; it’s essential. The cross is the centerpiece of our faith. It tears down every wall, breaks every stronghold, and launches an unstoppable connection to God through the Holy Spirit. Before going to the cross, Jesus’ final instructions for His church and His family centered on love and unity. His last prayer was that we would be one. Pastor Brady challenges us to carry that same spirit, to fight for one another, stand together, and genuinely care for our neighbors. Unity, she explains, is the precious anointing that invites God’s commanded blessing. Unity requires commitment, not just proximity. Where there is true unity, there is divine favor that makes rich and adds no sorrow. Watch now to learn how to be a keeper of unity and receive strength for your journey.

You’ve been surviving — but is your soul suffocating?  In this piercing message, Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts uncovers how life’s losses can damage us more than we realize — stealing not just relationships, time, or confidence, but the breath of God within us. When your soul is wounded, your purpose is stifled. But healing begins when you confront what you’ve normalized and reclaim the breath that was never meant to be buried.  Through the stories of Nathanael, Cain, and Hagar, Pastor Sarah reveals that God isn’t just watching — He’s seeing you, restoring you, and preparing to breathe through you. But that can only happen if your soul is anchored, healed, and tuned in.  MEDITATION: This is your soul’s assignment. Stay focused. Stay connected. God is equipping you for what’s next — and when your soul is ready, He’ll send you.  Message: “Don’t Hold Your Breath” Scripture: John 1:47-51 (NKJV) Speaker: Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts  Date: July 27, 2025  ✨ Welcome to Your Moment of Transformation  You don’t have to walk this journey alone.

What if what you’ve been chasing isn’t the promise, but the presence?  In this awakening word from Exodus 33:18-23, Bishop T.D. Jakes walks us through the sacred conversation between Moses and God. It’s not just about miracles, laws, or leadership — it’s about proximity. Moses pleads, “Show me Your glory,” not for blessings, but for closeness. He doesn’t want the promised land without the Lord. And neither should we.   You have survived what should have consumed you. Bishop Jakes says that is your sign. The bush is still burning, and you’re still standing. Why? Because God has had His hand on you all along, even before you recognized it.   This message calls us out of covenant with religious routine and idols and into real intimacy. Into the cleft of the Rock — Jesus — where God promises, “There is a place beside me.” There is a covering. A glory that will not just carry you but transform you.   Watch the full sermon and revisit until your soul cries out: SHOW ME YOUR GLORY! Because without God, we have nothing at all.   Message: “Close Proximity” Scripture: Exodus 33:18-23 (KJV) Speaker: Bishop T.D.

This is not a goodbye to Bishop T.D. Jakes, but a reassignment. Dr. Cindy Trimm shares a moving, decades-spanning message that reflects upon the mountains that the Lord assigned Bishop to climb.   Dr. Trimm compares Bishop’s 29 years of leadership at The Potter’s House to Moses. We’ve seen Bishop not only climb the mountains of media, ministry, mentorship, teaching, and business, but as a body, we have been honored to witness him as a model of the great commission, using his gifts as a tool for deliverance. As an obedient vessel, Bishop has used his influence to help raise the next generation of laborers — all while preparing his family for the extension of the mantle.   As history bows to destiny, the mission is magnified for Co-Senior Pastors Touré and Sarah Jakes Roberts, the entire Jakes family, and YOU — our brothers and sisters in Christ.   Listen as Dr. Trimm’s sermon brings in the next generation of The Potter’s House by reflecting on all that the Lord has done. Witness the birthing that is taking place in The House.  Message: “The Last Sermon: Leadership Redefined” Scripture: Deuteronomy 1:3 (KJV) Speaker: Dr. Cindy Trimm Date: July 6, 2025  Hosted on Acast.
