Jesus came to make you more alive! He said,“I’ve come that you might have life and have it to the full!” That’s what we’ve found in Jesus and what we want others to find. We help people find and follow Jesus. Those seven words are our mission here at Life Center.
The Life Center podcast is an incredible resource that I have been listening to for years. It has consistently challenged and encouraged me in my faith journey. Whether I am able to attend the church in person or not, I always feel connected and inspired through this podcast. The teachings are well thought out and tangible, delivered by Pastor Joe who exemplifies what it looks like to point people to Jesus.
One of the best aspects of The Life Center podcast is Pastor Joe's ability to make the Word of God relatable and applicable to everyday life. His teaching style is engaging and he presents the message as if he were having a conversation directly with you. This makes it easy to grasp the concepts and apply them to one's own life. Additionally, the worship sessions during the podcast are always uplifting and create an atmosphere of praise.
Another great aspect of this podcast is its accessibility. No matter where I am, whether I am in Spokane or thousands of miles away in Alaska, I can always stay connected to Lifecenter through these podcasts. This has been especially valuable during times when I cannot physically attend church due to work or other commitments. Being able to listen on my iPod allows me to be inspired and instructed by God's word wherever I go.
In terms of worst aspects, there are very few negatives about The Life Center podcast. One possible drawback is that listening to a sermon on a podcast may not provide the same sense of community as attending church in person. While technology allows us to stay connected digitally, there is still something special about gathering together with fellow believers in a physical space.
In conclusion, The Life Center podcast is an incredible resource that has had a profound impact on my spiritual growth. Pastor Joe's teachings are inspiring and relatable, making it easy for listeners to apply biblical principles to their own lives. With its accessibility and convenience, this podcast ensures that no matter where you are, you can still be part of the Life Center "family". Despite a potential lack of physical community, the value and impact of this podcast cannot be overstated.

We want to believe that comfort, convenience and happiness are our birthright, promised by God and guaranteed by the Constitution. “Make me happy,” we pray to God. “I want to make you holy, good, and strong” God answers. So let's see if we can understand how God uses suffering to achieve His purposes in our lives.
Do you believe God speaks? Do you believe God speaks to you? When are you most likely to hear from God?

God is the only person in the universe worthy of our whole love and lives, and he is often the last one to get any of it, even among Christians. Why is that? We live in a world that is engineered to steal our love from God. How many of you have felt your attention and affection pulled from God by the world around us? And one of the greatest tools the world uses to steal our affection from God is hyper-sexuality. Where sex is in everything. Sex sells. This sermon isn't just about sexuality, it's ultimately about love for the world vs love for God. To people who want to love God with all we've got, John's impassioned plea points out the problem and offers a joyously hope-filled solution.
God calls all of us to surrender our sexuality to him to be sanctified by his redeeming love.

Psalm 51 is a plea from David for God to forgive and restore him after being found out in his ugliest sins. This Psalm is his prayer to God made public to the nation.

Matthew 14:22-33 The story of Jesus walking on the water and calling Peter to get out of the boat and walk with Him. Have you ever gotten out of the boat? Done something risky for Jesus? Exercised crazy faith? The story ends with all of the disciples worshiping Jesus. “Truly you are the Son of God.” This is the first time they say that, and it comes after watching Him feed the multitude and walk on water—do things that only God can do.
Jesus is the Pioneer, the perfecter, the author, and finisher of our faith. We look at him so we don't lose heart. We look at him so we don't grow weary. Crazy faith comes from fixing our eyes on Jesus. One of God's name's is Jehovah Jireh—God our Provider! Jesus provided forgiveness and eternal life to you and me by giving himself on the cross. Jesus is Jehovah Jireh - God our provider.
Crazy faith comes with big prayers! We are each audacious change agents through audacious prayers and audacious actions that express our faith in God answering the prayers.

Whether we are ready or not the political season is upon us—more bumper stickers, signs, headlines, facebook posts, slogans, Trump or Biden. Both parties have extreme elements driving polarization, and that polarization seeps into our national ethos. As Jesus followers, we get to ask the question… What would Jesus do? Would Jesus side with the Democrats or the Republicans? We want to put Jesus on our side! Would Jesus create some middle political ground? Stick his head in the sand? Listen to talk shows? Rant online? We don't have to wonder what Jesus would do. We can look at what Jesus did when he walked the earth in the midst of greater political turmoil than our own!

Moses had an encounter with the living God and that's what shifted his soundtrack. It wasn't just information. It was transformation that moved him to have a willing heart.
