Engineer Your Environment

Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 9/14/25 "Engineer Your Environment" Week 2 of Detox Your Mind

“It is wisdom that helps a man to build a house. The house will have a strong foundation if he understands what is right. Knowledge will help him to fill its rooms with beautiful and valuable things.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭24‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭EASY‬‬ 

Engineer Your Environment:

1. Don’t Just Remove. Replace.

Luke 11:24–26-“When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest… Then it returns… and finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked…”

2.  Plan Your Life.

Proverbs 21:5-“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.”

Ephesians 5:15–16-“Be very careful, then, how you live — not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity.”

3. Fill Your Tank. 

Mark 1:35-“Very early in the morning… Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.”

Exodus 20:9-10-“Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work…”

4. Set and Reset Your Table.

1 Corinthians 15:33-“Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.” 

Proverbs 13:20-“Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.” 

Get To The Root

Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 9/7/25 "Get To The Root"

“So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭17‬-‭18‬ ‭ESV‬ 

Surface fixes don’t heal deep wounds. 

People pleasing is not who you are, it’s how you survived.

Rebellion is pain in disguise.

Words wound. 

Sex isn’t the problem. It’s a signal and a symptom.  

Hyper independence happened because you got hurt too many times depending on others. 

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” ‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭17‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Pain can make you want to disappear.

Let’s Take This City!

Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 8/17/25 "Lets Take This City!"

“It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else’s foundation. Rather, as it is written: “Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15‬:‭20‬-‭21‬ ‭NIV‬‬  

“So you received the message with joy from the Holy Spirit in spite of the severe suffering it brought you. In this way, you imitated both us and the Lord. As a result, you have become an example to all the believers in Greece—throughout both Macedonia and Achaia. And now the word of the Lord is ringing out from you to people everywhere, even beyond Macedonia and Achaia, for wherever we go we find people telling us about your faith in God. We don’t need to tell them about it.‭‭1Thessalonians‬ ‭1‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬ 

Show up.
Serve it.
Celebrate it.
Invest in it. 

We’re Hungry

Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 8/11/25 "We're Hungry" Vision Month

 “Once when he was eating with them, he commanded them, “Do not leave Jerusalem until the Father sends you the gift he promised, as I told you before. John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” ‭‭Acts ‭1‬:‭4‬-‭5‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“Then the day of the Pentecost festival arrived. All the believers were meeting together in one place. Suddenly, as they were sitting together, they heard a noise. The noise came from the sky and it filled the whole house. It was like the sound of a strong wind. Then they saw something that looked like many small fires. The separate fires moved and went to sit on each person there. All the believers became full with the Holy Spirit…” Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭EASY‬‬

Axe Heads on the Brain

Catalyst Church of Carrollton: 5/4/2025 - “_______”

“One day the group of prophets came to Elisha and told him, “As you can see, this place where we meet with you is too small. Let’s go down to the Jordan River, where there are plenty of logs. There we can build a new place for us to meet.” “All right,” he told them, “go ahead.” “Please come with us,” someone suggested. “I will,” he said. So he went with them. When they arrived at the Jordan, they began cutting down trees. But as one of them was cutting a tree, his ax head fell into the river. “Oh, sir!” he cried. “It was a borrowed ax!” “Where did it fall?” the man of God asked. When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it into the water at that spot. Then the ax head floated to the surface. “Grab it,” Elisha said. And the man reached out and grabbed it.” ‭‭2 Kings‬ ‭6‬:‭1‬-‭7‬ ‭NLT

Passion & Purpose

Catalyst Church of Carrollton - 7/6/25 TJ Martin 

But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith.  I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.  Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 3:7-14
