Heart of the Father

Psalm 22:3 tells us that "God inhabits the praise of His people". What does it mean to praise the Lord? For us to truly become a House of Praise, we have to be willing to rejoice in the midst of storms and proclaim God's goodness even when it hurts. 

What does is mean to be empowered by the Holy Spirit? Webster's Dictionary defines power as "the right to govern or rule; power implies possession of ability to wield force, authority, or influence."  We do this by getting into agreement with God's Word and being led by His Spirit! 

Have you ever wondered what an effective and powerful prayer is? This week, we discuss what it means for the Church to become a house of prayer, by breaking down 'The Lord's Prayer" (Matthew 6:9-13). Discover what it means to pray with authority and by the direction of the Holy Spirit!

Have you ever struggled feeling like you are pure enough for God? The good news is that if you've accepted Jesus as your savior, you've already been made pure and holy! This week we dive into what it means to be a house of purity and understanding that Jesus has already given us his righteousness and covered all our sins. When God looks at you, all he sees is Jesus IN you! 

Over the next few episodes we will dive into what it means for believers to be the House of the Lord. That begins with recognizing that we are the Temple of the Holy Spirit. No longer do we have to go inside of a building to experience God's presence. Once we receive Jesus as Lord, His Spirit lives inside of us! 

Today's episode is a clip of Pastor Eugene sharing his heart during our Shabbat Bible Study while we were in Turkey. We felt that sharing a piece of our experience touring the 7 Churches of Revelation would be great for the podcast! 

We're back!! After a 5 month hiatus, we are officially kicking off Season 2 with a bang! Pastor Eugene sits down with Kort & Kade to discuss how important it is for us to align ourselves with God's heart. It's time for us to enter into a new dimension in our walk with God! Are you ready?

The church needs a detox. So much of our behavior and mindsets needs a deep cleanse. How did we get here? What is our path forward? It all starts with giving Jesus preeminence in our lives and recognizing the toxic behavior and mindsets we need to change in ourselves. 

Find out what it means to test yourself & know if Christ lives within you. So much of our walk with God is about looking inward and reflecting on the motives of our heart. Instead of always focusing our attention on others, we should develop a deeper understanding of who Christ is within us, and how that can empower us to live life more freely!

Have you ever thought about the fact that your relationship with others is a direct reflection of relationship you have with God? We need to redefine what our relationship are and what those dynamics mean for us as believers. 

God has always been about covenant. From Abraham, to Moses, to King David, the framework of Covenant is all throughout the Bible. Today we have an eternal, explicit and exclusive covenant with God through Christ Jesus. Jesus offered us a new and better final covenant that is full of promise and grace. Discover God's covenant with you today! 

We're back after a summer hiatus and ready to discuss more of the Father's Heart! What is God's original intent for worship? If worship is meant to be a sacrifice of praise, why do so many Christians believe worship to be a perfectly choreographed church experience? It's time we get back to the heart of the issue.

The words we speak out of our mouth are crucial! Proverbs 18:21 says that life and death are in the power of the tongue. What are you confessing over yourself? Over your family? Your job? Are you declaring God's promises over your situation, or proclaiming that everything goes wrong for you? Find out why words are so important to our walk with the Lord.

It's time for the church to awaken to righteousness. We live in a pivotal time in our history.  It's clear that God is calling for the true church to arise and shine. Unfortunately, far too many Christians have hit snooze and rolled over. Are you ready to answer the call and #WakeUp?

It is imperative that we learn to hear the voice of God. In John 10:27, Jesus says that "my sheep hear my voice." If God is speaking, are we listening? It's impractical for a believer to not know the voice of the good shepherd.   Discovering God's voice is pivotal to your life and walk with Christ.

Our community just experienced God's goodness, through a tragic storm that destroyed 80 homes, 2 of our schools, and damaged our worship center. We saw a miracle take place, in the fact that not a single life was lost. During what could have been a devastating loss of life, God's hand of protection was all over our city. It's time we all rediscover what God's goodness looks like. 

In this episode, we are joined by Pastor Randy Free to discuss how repentance is a lifestyle. What does it mean to repent, and truly pursue change? Is repentance something we should only do once, or is it a posture we should take daily? One of the first thing Jesus told his disciples was, “repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand” (Matthew 4:17). Discover how crucial repentance is in your daily walk with the Lord.

Welcome our first guest to the podcast! Omer Eshel is the CEO of The Bible Comes to Life, Israel's premier travel ministry. In this episode, we discuss the Feasts of the Lord (listed in Leviticus 23-25), why they are important to the believer today and how we can rediscover them in our walk with the Lord.

In March of 2021, archaeologists in Israel discovered new fragments of a Dead Sea Scroll in the Qumran Caves, for the first time in over 60 years.  Among those fragments (written in Greek) was the scripture Zechariah 8:16, “These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor; Give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace;” (NKJV). If you've ever wondered what God is telling you to do – this is it! 

Have you ever thought about peace as a choice? If God has called us to peace, why is it that so many people live in a state of constant chaos? Rediscover what is means to pursue peace in your life. 

Welcome to our first podcast! We discuss the reason behind the launch of this podcast, why it's called "Heart of the Father" and what God is revealing during this season. 

Pastor Eugene Weldon shares his heart about what God is saying to the Church in this introduction episode to Heart of the Father Podcast.
