Be Different | Pastor Herbert Cooper | Rock Hills Church


What does it mean to have a different spirit? In this powerful message, Pastor Herbert Cooper challenges us to rise above the patterns of the world and fully follow God—just like Caleb did in Numbers 14:24.


Through six defining qualities, we discover how a different spirit is marked by:

1. Weirdness – Choosing holiness and transformation over conformity.

2. Vision – Seeing God’s promises clearly when others only see obstacles.

3. Faith – Trusting that the Lord will lead us into His best.

4. A Good Report – Guarding what we hear, believe, and declare with our words.

5. A Servant’s Heart – Living not for ourselves, but as servants of Jesus who serve others.

6. Wholehearted Devotion – Following God fully, no matter the cost.


This sermon will encourage you to evaluate the spirit you carry and inspire you to walk boldly in faith, vision, and wholehearted obedience.


📖 Key Scripture: Numbers 14:24 — “But because my servant Caleb has a different spirit and follows me wholeheartedly, I will bring him into the land he went to, and his descendants will inherit it.”


🙌 If you’ve been struggling to stand out in your faith or wavering in courage, this word will give you fresh clarity and conviction to live differently for Christ.
