Baptism Weekend

Episode 11: Jim Ehrman and Josh Vanderplate

When do I get to unpack this suitcase?

Jim gives four insights into change and tackles the question of "What do we experience during time of change or transition." Ending with the reminder that if you want new isights, you must be willing to encounter new things.

Where is Jesus in the boat?

Although it would be nice to believe otherwise, problems and trials are an inevitable part of life. The "storms" we are currently facing are challenging, leaving us all with many wonder questions. God's Word has a remedy for our storm-tossed souls.

What in the World is Happening with this Pandemic?

As we consider the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us are inclined to ask 'why' this is happening. I believe the more important question is, "What?" What is happening in our communities and around the world? And what should our response be as disciples of Jesus? What is a biblical perspective on this pandemic? And what should be we saying to one another and to our friends, neighbors, and coworkers about what we are going through?

Dealing with Division

We know that God commands His blessing on unity, and as the World watches us, the Church; I believe we have an opportunity to respond rightly in the midst of differences in order to see the greatest harvest and Kingdom increase the world has known!

Why we need solitude and community.

The pandemic was hard because it forced us to be alone. But in our culture, we need to learn the benefits of being silent and knowing that God is God. During the pandemic, we also learned that we really need others. Isolation makes us sick. And the church is really a family and a community, not just a place we attend. We need authentic relationships to stay healthy.

David Didn't Dance Alone

God brings pivotal relationships into our lives at critical moments and we shouldn't be afraid to ask for them.

Jesus: The Kingdom Has Come Near

Jesus perfectly displayed the nature and power of God in the earth. Even still, people had trouble believing that He was who He said He was, because of what they knew of him in the flesh.The flesh is a veil that can hinder our faith, but God is releasing grace to believe in the truth of His word, and the reality of who we are in Him.

Ruth: Meaning Amidst Mistakes
