Cape Cod Church Podcast

During Jesus' life with us, He performed miracles – and in the After + Math, they continue. God is at work in our world! Acts recounts the story of the first miracle in the After + Math, and it offers us a lesson on how to ask for a miracle. God invites us to make bold, expectant, faith-filled prayers. This is how.

Someone recently visited Europe. When we heard his travel plans, we offered (unsolicited) advice on sites to see, including a few notable churches—or more specifically, church buildings. These were beautiful ones with architecture and history. Here's the thing. These buildings are largely relics, beautiful reminders of storied pasts. The churches we really admire look like the ones launched in Acts 2, in the After + Math, and this weekend we uncovered what made that church so remarkable. First time listening to our podcast?

We love history; we didn't always, but we do now. Mostly, we strive to make connections between the old and the new—how a thing started and how we can still see pieces of it today. Acts is the story of the "After + Math," the beginning of the Jesus movement we are now a part of. The core pieces of what we do now—the gathering, the worship, the teaching—all have their history in the "After + Math" of Jesus's life on Earth. This weekend, we looked at the first sermon preached in the "After + Math," and we found a familiar outline and a timeless hope. First time listening to our podcast?

In the After + Math of the Resurrection, there is a strange, wonderful, often misunderstood power at work in us—the Holy Spirit. Undeniably real, unexplainably powerful, and intensely personal, the Spirit's work in our world, our church, and our lives defines our age. And it's the key to the lives and faith we long for. But where is it, what or who is it, and what does the Spirit want to do? That's this Sunday's After + Math story. First time listening to our podcast?

The period between the resurrection and ascension is brief, lasting only 40 days. This short moment marks the beginning of people's realization of the profound changes in the world. The ascension highlights that change and leaves us with three gifts that give us full lives and new hope. They are reminders of who Jesus is and what he has done for us. This weekend, we wrapped up our series After + Math with the story of three gifts.  First time listening to our podcast? We'd like to get to know you!  Head over to: http://bit.ly/connectcardccc.

This past Sunday, May 11th, Cape Cod Church celebrated Mother's Day, honoring the amazing women who raised us! The morning was filled with love, gratitude, and joyful memories, featuring Petals Flower Truck, familly photo booth,  donuts & lemonade, and a small gift to thank all mothers and mother figures! Our guest speaker was Rev. Dr. Virginia Ward, a pastor, mother, and expert in youth ministry. Dr. Ward shared her warmth, wisdom, and passion for helping generations thrive in faith.

The house has been bought; the renovation project has begun! This is a good illustration of what happened after Jesus rose from the grave as king of the world. And we are partners in that work, renovators with God in His world. But where do we start? What can we do? The answer to that fills us with purpose and hope, and it's what we've talked about this Sunday. First time listening to our podcast?

The weekend after Easter! At Cape Cod Church, we celebrate this with Baptism—a service where people celebrate their faith in Jesus Christ through the symbolic act of baptism. We celebrate this together with dozens of people declaring their faith in the waters of Baptism. It's a service like no other at Cape Cod Church. The aftermath of the crucifixion and the resurrection was a new world. It's not always visible or obvious, but something changed that—a new kingdom, a new king. This changes the way we look at the world, how we treat people, what we pray for, and how we live… it's kingdom math, and it's different.   First time listening to our podcast?

It's Easter, a season of new beginnings and a story of fresh starts. That's worth celebrating! Thanks for joining us!

Faith can grow, a truth we've learned in recent weeks, and a necessity we recognize. Palm Sunday reminds us that our faith enables our relationship with Jesus Christ, allowing us to envision a world as it was meant to be. This is the story of a coming kingdom.

Victorious heroes are often associated with a particular image: epic swagger, accolades, and applause – the hallmarks of winning. But what happens when life looks different, when pain and struggle become constant companions? How do we reconcile suffering with faithfulness? How does our growing faith address pain? This weekend, we examine Hebrews 11's most unexpected group of heroes, individuals with whom you my relate to most of all.   First time listening to our podcast?

How much faith is required for salvation? We've been exploring faith and how it grows. Perhaps you're wondering if your faith is sufficient. To clarify, faith is a pathway, not the source of power. Don't confuse the two. Even a small amount of faith can make an eternal difference, as Rahab's story in Hebrews 11 demonstrates. First time listening to our podcast?

Faith is how we make sound decisions. Specifically, those tough to swallow, hard to understand, and uncertain decisions all require a degree of insight. This insight is a wisdom that makes all the difference in our decisions, acting as a kind of "insider knowledge." Moses' story illustrates four ways a growing faith can lead to better decisions and fewer regrets.   First time listening to our podcast?

Hebrews 11, our passage explaining belief, reiterates a single phrase: "It was by faith." The beginning of life's most pivotal moments begins with faith. While this becomes clearer in hindsight, you can prepare for it now. Faith provides a fresh perspective on our circumstances, even altering how you perceive your successes. Joseph's final words, a request regarding his burial, offer a profound insight into our own lives. First time listening to our podcast?

It's been a wonderful THRIVE weekend hearing from local organizations and learning about the many ways we, as the church, can get involved in the important work they are doing.

Stepping out in faith often brings anxious feelings as we prepare ourselves for the "big leap." But laughter? That's not usually what we associate with a “leap of faith.” The story of Abraham and Sarah is one of how unbelief transforms into belief, and how bitter laughter gives way to laughter filled with wonder and joy. Faith is a runway to hopeful living—the kind that impacts our hearts and emotions even before it changes our circumstances. So, it's okay to laugh! First time listening to our podcast?

Faith is living out what you believe. Growing in understanding? Yes, that's where it starts. Developing a conviction? Yes, that's the place where understanding becomes Belief. Still, there will come a point, where despite uncertainty, we step out. We call that moment “faith.” These moments are memorable because they're often terrifying. Can faith grow? Yes! Here's how.

Last weekend, we threw a party—the perfect opportunity to invite a friend to Cape Cod Church! We continued our series on belief and unbelief, exploring how faith grows. Faith comes to us in layers… understanding, conviction, and commitment. We grow in understanding, which then leads to conviction. What does a healthy conviction look like? What is the role of this middle layer in growing my faith? Using a familiar story about a famous boat, we explained faith and conviction. First time listening to our podcast?

"Faith is blind." You've probably heard this phrase before. Maybe you've even said it yourself! It can be a criticism, a point of pride, an embarrassed admission, or a word of encouragement.  Both skeptics and Christians have embraced this idea. But is it true? This week, we continue our exploration of Hebrews 11, focusing on the origins of the universe. We'll discuss questions about science, reason, and the nature of faith. What we discover might just surprise you! First time listening to our podcast? We'd like to get to know you!  Head over to: http://bit.ly/connectcardccc. Connect with us!

I have a friend who loves to ask, “On a scale of 1–10, how are you doing?” How was your vacation (1–10)? How do you like school (1–10)? How's the new job (1–10)? It's an interesting way to dig a bit deeper, and I like it. So, let's try this: How is your faith on a scale of 1–10? Do you find believing a challenge? Do you experience worry or uncertainty where you wish there was steadfast faith? And maybe more importantly, is there anything we can do about it? Can we grow our faith? The answer (spoiler alert!) is yes, and in this new series, we'll discover how faith grows as we explore Hebrews 11. First time listening to our podcast?

I'm a pretty good planner. I like to get a goal and create a plan to achieve it, collect the needed materials, and execute. Then I sit back and enjoy the rewards of having arrived. But goal setting, planning, and effort have limits—more than we admit. Where does the supernatural fit into your story?

Do you ever pray and wonder if it works? Are you doing it right? Is God truly listening? Doubts can easily lead us astray from our prayer life. This weekend, I share a personal approach to prayer that I've developed over the past 30 years. Let's call it "Seven for the Soul." We all need to find a way to pray that goes beyond simply asking for favorable outcomes.

Rock or sand – we all face the choice of how we build our lives. But where do we begin? How can we ensure real change, significant growth, and measurable victories become part of our story?

Do you ever wish you could go back and experience Christmas through the eyes of a child? The wonder, the sleepless excitement, the cherished traditions... and not having to wrap a single gift! As we grow older, it's easy for the magic of Christmas to fade. The story can feel overly familiar. Even if you didn't grow up attending church, you've probably heard it all before. But this season, the Christmas story has something fresh to offer. We delve into the story anew and encounter a mysterious figure with a timeless lesson to share. Along the way, we rediscover the “good news” of Christmas... as if for the first time. First time listening to our podcast? We'd like to get to know you!  Head over to: http://bit.ly/connectcardccc.

A part of the joy of Christmas is the element of surprise. Under the tree, a collection of bags and boxes sits neatly (or sometimes not so neatly) wrapped. Surprise is an essential part of the story. It has been that way since the very beginning. Christmas itself is a surprise. We often expect one thing when searching for life's answers, yet Jesus surprises us. Two of the four biographies of Jesus detail His birth—one skips it entirely, while the fourth can't help but reveal the unexpected. It's not just about how Jesus was born; it's about why He was born, what it means, and how it brings joy to life. That's what made it so surprising to the writer. First time listening to our podcast?

I always feel bad for Superman… so much strength and yet, a simple rock of kryptonite nearly would ruin him! Kryptonite, a fictitious rock has become the cultural metaphor we all know, and probably need. What's your kryptonite? Gideon is about to find out, and it's a familiar story that doesn't end well. The Bible has its own word for kryptonite (Hint: it's easier to spell) and with it a solution that should be at the center of your life. We've wrapped up Heroes this week with an important message.

Every hero has a superpower, which is what makes them, well, "Super." Perhaps you played a game as a child, "If you could have one superpower, what would it be?" Maybe you imagined flying, controlling the weather, or possessing that "man of steel" strength. You get the idea. In real life, there's an often overlooked superpower, and I bet you know people who possess it. Even better, you can have it too.

Oxford University Press declared it the word of the year… and it's not even a word, not really. Rizz … yep, that's it—Rizz! If you're unsure what I am talking about, find your closest Gen Z friend and catch up.  Rizz is the colloquial next-gen term for Charisma (but don't try this out in public). If you're over 30, or any age, ...it's hard to pull off outside of middle school. Charisma is the slightly undefinable characteristic we all want, and wonder if we have.

While Superman might not be walking through your door, you are. What the world needs now isn't a superhero, but it might be for someone reading this.

Last Sunday, many of us gathered at the beach after church to celebrate the baptism of 58 people as they publicly proclaimed their faith in Jesus! It was a beautiful day filled with cheering, tears of joy, and laughter. With over 100 people there to celebrate with us, it was truly a community event. "Community" is a word we use a lot at church—mostly because it's something we all need and desire. In fact, it's one of the main reasons we come to church in the first place: to find "our people." People we can walk with, grow with, count on, and serve. In this sermon, learn how to find "your people" and listen to the stories of those who have found community in CCC Small Groups.

The Road Trip concludes this weekend. Paul's journey reaches its finale, and it won't surprise you that he finished well. Paul leaves us with an inspiring final act and two powerful lessons on living and finishing well. We've finished up at the ocean, celebrating with a crowd of people declaring their faith in Christ through baptism. Thank you to those who joined us at Menauhant Beach last Sunday.

Yep, it's that time of year—back to school! So, we're throwing a party to celebrate, and we've got something for everyone: a special gift to support the teachers in our community, a digital guide for parents, a gift and a bounce house for the kids, and smoothies on the patio for everyone!   This is the perfect weekend to invite a friend! We've discussed courage and where it comes from, and you'll hear an inspiring story from right here at Cape Cod Church. Don't miss it!   First time listening to our podcast?

From a dusty road to Damascus and a providential encounter—Paul has been on a journey, a road trip. Make no mistake, this is a planned trip, but Paul was not the master planner—God was! Three epic journeys would serve as the map, but behind it all, God was at work to change the world. And we see it happening as Paul's journey moves toward its final stages. What does world-changing look like? Find out in this sermon.   First time listening to our podcast? We'd like to get to know you!    Head over to: http://bit.ly/connectcardccc.

Paul, one of history's most influential figures, embarked on three epic journeys, spreading the story and example of Jesus across numerous cities. Over years of travel, he sowed seeds of faith that blossomed into vibrant communities. The power lay not in Paul, but in the message of Jesus. This weekend, we explore three ways to plant those same seeds.   First time listening to our podcast?

We admit it--we may bit addicted to the Olympics. We watched a badminton gold medal match between Denmark and Thailand! The modern Olympics began in 1896, but what makes the Olympic Games truly fascinating is their ancient origins. They originally ran for over 1,000 years (796 BC - 393 AD) and were even part of Paul's story. In the next chapter of our road trip with Paul, we find him using the popular sporting competition of his day to illustrate a better way to live fully. This weekend, we put it all together as we celebrate our Live Fully Sports Camps—cheering on some little champions and welcoming many new families visiting for the first time! We finished the series with ice cream sandwiches for everyone—now that's a closing ceremony!   First time listening to our podcast?

It's Intern Sunday at Cape Cod Church! Our summer interns take the stage to share what they've learned; lead us in worship; and premier some special projects. With our young leaders at the helm, we continue our 'Road Trip' series! We've followed the Apostle Paul through a lot already: diverse cities, intense opposition, and hard conversations. We venture further into the unknown as Paul teaches us what to do with uncharted territory. How do we respond to challenging times? How do we respond to a culture that sometimes feels foreign?   This weekend, we get some answers from an ancient generation...brought to you by the next generation!   First time listening to our podcast?

We've been following Paul's journey, and this week we find him at a pivotal moment: in the middle of a fight, middle-aged, and mid-journey. A lot has changed for him: new friends, a revamped work strategy, and a broadened perspective. There's a lot we can learn from a man in the middle–both good and bad. Some of the lessons may just surprise you!   First time listening to our podcast?

People are fickle; one day they're with you, the next day the crowd has moved on. Or worse, moved against you.   The inevitable result is conflict.   Conflict begins within us but doesn't always stay there, and perhaps it shouldn't. Paul's story is a lesson in crowds and conflict. He teaches us what to watch for, what to fight for, and how to do it Jesus' way.   First time listening to our podcast?

Our "Road Trip" through Paul's life has just begun, but the tension is real and rising.  If you typically feel that pain, resistance, and struggle are signs of failure—a warning to turn back or to change course—you may miss out on some of life's richest rewards. God often sees a hero where we see a zero. Our indicators for failure are not His indicators.   Let's view it from a different perspective this weekend.   First time listening to our podcast?

"Life is a highway," they say. (Yes, Lyrics is back for summer 2024.) Life is a journey, and we're all heading somewhere.   That journey can sometimes feel random, or even worse. Is God at work in your story? Does He have a plan for your road, a destination, a calling for your life?   Paul's epic road trip is about to begin, and it offers answers to all those questions.   First time listening to our podcast?
