The Clearing: Recent Episodes
Ethan Bricker
The Clearing is a House of Worship & Prayer located in Lexington Michigan. We are an urgent, thunderous voice crying out: “Clear the way and prepare your hearts for the coming of the Lord”. By creating space for Jesus to be glorified, we believe the Holy Spirit will clear away: every addiction, idol, all manner of materialism, greed, lust, religion, self righteousness and anything we’ve held more sacred than Jesus.

Creation itself is groaning — not in despair, but in expectation. Paul tells us in Romans 8 that the whole earth is waiting, longing, for the sons and daughters of God to be revealed. Not for more religious performance, but for people who actually know two things: whose they are, and who they are.
In this message, Shannon Schreyer walks through Romans 8 to unpack what it means to live as an adopted child of God — set free from fear, led by the Spirit, and secure in an identity that nothing can separate from His love. If you’ve ever felt like you’re still trying to figure out who you are, this word is for you. The earth is waiting for you to walk in it.

What do you do when God delivers you—but doesn’t immediately take you to the Promised Land?
In this powerful sermon, “Walking Through the Wilderness,” Jestin Tigue takes us through Israel’s journey from Egypt toward the Promised Land and reminds us that deliverance is not the end of the journey. Sometimes, after God brings us out, He leads us through a wilderness season where our faith is tested, our dependence on Him grows, and we learn more deeply who He is.
The wilderness can be a place of uncertainty, testing, pain, and waiting—but it can also become a place where we discover that God delivers, God protects, God heals, God provides, and God remains faithful from generation to generation.
Through passages in Exodus, Psalms, Jeremiah, and Matthew, this message explores what it means to follow God when the journey is difficult and the destination still feels far away.
In the wilderness, we learn:
• Our God Delivers. He rescues us and brings us into something new—but deliverance is the beginning of the journey, not the end.
• Our God Protects. Just as God fought for Israel and revealed Himself as Jehovah Nissi—“The Lord Is My Banner”—He remains faithful to protect His people.
• Our God Heals. Even in bitter places like Marah, God reveals Himself as the Lord who heals.
• Our God Provides. God provided manna in the wilderness, and He continues to provide for us day by day.
• God Tests and Strengthens Our Faith. The Hebrew word נָסָה (nāsâ) means “to test.” The wilderness exposes what is in our hearts and teaches us to trust God.
• God Is With Us Every Day. We do not have to wait until we reach the Promised Land to experience the presence and faithfulness of God.
• God Works From Generation to Generation. His faithfulness does not end with one season or one generation.
The wilderness is not your final destination. You are passing through.
Even when you feel lost, God is still leading. Even when the water is bitter, He is still your healer. Even when you are hungry, He is still your provider. Even when the battle is difficult, He is still your banner. And even when you cannot see the way forward, Jesus promises to be with you always.
“Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
If you are walking through a difficult season, waiting on God, wrestling with questions, or trying to understand what God is doing in your wilderness, this message is for you.
📖 Scriptures referenced: Exodus 6, Exodus 14–20, Genesis 17, Psalm 84, Psalm 88, Psalm 94, Jeremiah 12, Jeremiah 31, and Matthew 11 and 28.

Have you ever wondered why the Bible describes worship in so many different ways?
In Part 2 of 7 Hebrew Words for Praise, Ethan Bricker continues exploring the rich vocabulary of biblical worship and teaches that praise is far more than singing songs—it is a lifestyle expressed through our voices, our bodies, our gratitude, our humility, and our wholehearted devotion to God.
In this message, we unpack the final Hebrew words for praise found throughout the Old Testament:
• Hallal (הָלַל) – exuberant celebration, boasting in God, shining, and joyful praise with abandon.
• Yadah (יָדָה) – lifting hands in surrender, thanksgiving, confession, and reverence before God.
• Todah (תּוֹדָה) – giving thanks before the breakthrough comes; worship rooted in faith rather than feelings.
• Shabach (שָׁבַח) – shouting triumphantly in confidence because of who God is and what He has done.
• Barakh (בָּרַךְ) – kneeling in humility, blessing the Lord, and recognizing His greatness above our own.
• Zamar (זָמַר) – praising God through music, singing, instruments, and joyful celebration.
• Tehillah (תְּהִלָּה) – a spontaneous song of praise that declares the goodness and mighty acts of God.
Along the way, I share the story of the first time I personally encountered the presence of God in a Wesleyan youth group and how a simple act of lifting my hands transformed worship from something I merely understood into something I genuinely experienced. God's presence had always been near, but surrendering my heart, mind, soul, and strength helped align my attention with the One I had chosen to seek.
We also explore how the Psalms shaped Israel's understanding of worship, why biblical praise often involves our whole bodies—not just our voices—and why worship is ultimately about desire over duty. True worship isn't empty emotionalism or religious performance; it is practiced obedience that grows from a heart captivated by God.
Whether you're curious about raising your hands in church, kneeling in prayer, shouting with joy, dancing in worship, or simply wanting to understand the biblical foundations of praise, this teaching will help you see worship through the lens of Scripture.
Key Scriptures:
Psalm 145
Psalm 95
Psalm 63
Psalm 34
Psalm 57
Psalm 40
Psalm 22
Isaiah 61
1 Chronicles 29

Discover what biblical worship really means through a deep dive on the 7 Hebrew Words for Praise.
Is worship just singing songs, or is it something much deeper?
In this message by Ethan Bricker, we explore the powerful truth that worship is love seeking Love. Through the lives of King David and King Jehoshaphat, you'll discover that worship isn't merely a church style or musical preference—it's a wholehearted response to God's presence expressed through obedience, gratitude, celebration, and surrender.
We'll unpack the rich meaning behind the Hebrew words for praise—including Hallal, Yadah, and Todah—and see how much depth is often lost in English translations. Learn why David danced before the Lord, why lifting your hands has biblical significance, and how worship becomes a weapon in spiritual battles.
Whether you've wondered why some churches raise their hands, what the Bible teaches about worship, or how to grow closer to God through praise, this sermon will help you experience worship as God intended.
In this sermon you'll learn:
• What worship really is according to Scripture
• The biblical meaning of Hallal, Yadah, and Todah
• Why obedience and worship belong together
• Why King David's worship still challenges us today
• How praise strengthens faith during difficult seasons

What if the gathered church was never meant to become the destination—but the launching point?
In this message, we look at the early church in Acts and ask: What was the church actually built for? Through teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, generosity, and prayer, believers were formed together so they could go out and carry the gospel into everyday life.
Church isn’t meant to replace ministry. It exists to equip it.
This message explores:
• The four pillars of the early church (Acts 2:42–47)
• Why gathering matters—but isn’t the finish line
• How consumer Christianity can distract from discipleship
• Why leadership exists to multiply ministry, not monopolize it
• What it looks like to bring Christ outside the four walls
When the holy huddle breaks… we go.
📖 Scriptures: Acts 2, Acts 6, Matthew 28, Ephesians 4, 2 Corinthians 9

Have you ever asked yourself, Why does Jesus have to die to forgive us of our sins or to bring humanity salvation? If you've ever had trouble understanding what Jesus accomplished on Calvary, this message is for you.
The Bible is a unified story all telling the same redemptive story of God saving His creation that has been corrupted by sin. God uses covenants as a vehicle to grow in relationship with those he establishes a covenantal relationship with. In the New Covenant, we see Jesus fulfill all of the covenants that came prior to it, but not only that, we also see him establish a brand new covenant that will never go away. In this message, Pastor Ethan Bricker brings his Covenants series to a climactic moment where all of the covenants in the Bible find their fulfillment in Jesus.

In this message, pastor Ethan Bricker discusses why all Christians have been called royal priests and what the priesthood of all believers means for us in our modern-day lives. To be a priest first and foremost means to be a first follower - someone who is willing to follow a leader before anyone else. Contrary to our post-modern mindsets, FOLLOWING IS LEADING. God has called us to approach him, become united with Him by His Son, and mind the gap between the lost and our Father who finds.

Today, Ethan Bricker spoke to us about the importance of waiting on the Lord. He explores Isaiah 40, Psalm 23, and Matthew 11, and how they all point to the solution to our weary hearts. Waiting is practicing trust and rest at the same time. It's an exercise of Shabbat and Faith working together at the same time in trust that God will renew the strength we need. As Ethan says, "Waiting is love on the way." it is when we anticipate the love of God seeking us out and transforming our weariness into glad strength.

Conflict within the church is inevitable. What's important is that we gain the skills we need to love each other through the conflict we are experiencing and seek to understand those we call our Church Family. Difficult people aren't hard to find, compassionate people are. If that's the case, it's crucial that every Christian in a church context works to build resilient compassion through the art of crucial conversations.

The reality is that we might not realize we are living in one or the other, or possibly even a mixture of the two. The call of our lives is to live unto only one Kingdom and one Gospel, and that is the Kingdom and Gospel of Jesus Christ.
