Pastor Todd opened the service on Independence Day by welcoming the congregation and online viewers, connecting the national holiday to the spiritual freedom found in Christ. He reflected on the historical acknowledgment of God in America's founding documents and the biblical call to freedom. The central message, titled 'Freedom is Calling,' addressed three areas where believers often need deliverance: the pain from our past, the pressures of our present, and the fear of our future. Using personal stories and biblical examples like Job, the woman with the issue of blood, and Joseph, Pastor Todd emphasized that God desires to set His people free from burdens, grief, and bondage they were never meant to carry. He taught that freedom requires a decision to trust God, an acknowledgment of pain and responsibility, and surrounding oneself with positive, faith-filled people. The sermon concluded with a powerful call to prayer, inviting those struggling with secret burdens or needing salvation to receive God's touch and commit to living in the freedom Christ purchased.
