SHIFT FAITH FORWARD: BUILDING THE FUTURE TOGETHER

by | Jun 29, 2025 | Kingdom Culture

Welcome to VIVA SUNDAY at Viva Church! We’re thrilled to gather together in person once again. Join us this Sunday as Lead Pastor Frank Seixas delivers a powerful message titled “Shift Faith Forward: Building the Future Together.” In this installment of our Kingdom Culture series, we explore how faith propels us forward into God’s transformative plans.

Drawing from Isaiah 54:2-3 and Genesis 12:1-4, Pastor Frank will uncover profound truths about starting with disruption, embracing obedience before clarity, and how shifting in faith blesses not just us but those around us.

God often begins with a disruption, leading us from comfort to trust, routine to obedience, and bitterness to forgiveness. Faith forward starts with obedience, even before knowing all the details — examples abound from Noah to Mary and Peter. And as we shift in faith, we become vessels of blessing to others, just as Abraham, Joseph, and Esther’s acts of faith changed nations and saved lives.

Join us as we learn that small steps can ignite significant shifts. Let’s declare together: “I will not wait for perfect conditions. I will move when God speaks — because small steps trigger big shifts.”

Let’s worship, lean into the Word, and allow the Holy Spirit to speak to us today! If you’re watching online, drop a comment and let us know where you’re tuning in from. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to stay connected with all that God is doing at VIVA CHURCH! 🙌🔥

  • Pastor Frank Seixas

    I am Frank the co-lead Pastor and with my wife Chris are the founders of VIVA Church in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. I first came to Canada in 1987, following God’s call to permanently move from Brazil to Canada. In August 1992, I started VIVA Church. In January 1994, I married Chris, and in 1996, I graduated from the Nazarene Bible College of Canada. Later I was awarded Doctor of Divinity (DDiv) from Canada Christian College in 2022.

    With a vision to reach people for Jesus, VIVA Church has grown to become a positive influence for the Kingdom, not only in Oshawa but also by planting churches internationally in countries like Cambodia and Uganda. Beyond our work at the local church, I (Frank) serve the body of Christ on the boards of other ministries and churches, and I am part of the Apostolic Ministry of MFI-Canada. I also travel to speak at conferences and many churches around the world.

    Chris and I have dedicated more than 30 years to serving at VIVA Church, witnessing the salvation and growth of many. We have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Leticia, our youngest, and Gabriella, our oldest, who is married to Matheus.
