The Psalms Series "Worship and Warning" (Psalm 95) In Psalm 95, Elder Peter Finch draws us into the full picture of biblical worship. The psalm opens with a call to exuberant, communal singing before a God who is supreme Creator and sovereign Redeemer. But it does not stay there. The second half carries a serious warning: do not let your worship be disconnected from a surrendered heart. Using the wilderness failures of Israel at Meribah and Massah, Elder Peter traces what it looks like when God's people harden their hearts against His voice, and what it costs them. The takeaway is both sobering and freeing. Worship and obedience are not two separate things. They flow from the same source. And today, if you hear His voice, the invitation is still open.

What does it look like when an entire church family changes at once? On this week's Around McGregor, Mark Bricker, Tamar Miller, and Christian Miller recap McGregor's first Sunday worshiping in Fellowship Hall as the Renew Phase 2 renovation gets underway. They talk through new parking patterns, tighter seating, and the small moments that made the morning memorable, including one kid who swapped his missing pew Bible and pencil for a marker board. They also cover the life groups who stayed after the service to reset the room in 20 minutes so operations could be ready Monday morning. And they note that Psalm 84 was not an accidental choice for that first Sunday in a new space. From there the conversation moves forward: four new Joining Together midweek courses start this Wednesday, including Dr. Jonathan Bowman teaching on the history and hope of revival in America. The South Asia mission trip informational meeting is today right after the last service. The Preschool and Children's Choir Spring Concert is April 26. The member meeting moves to May 3 with a new time. And the 8th Annual Church Golf Tournament lands on May 16 at Forest Country Club. If you want to know what is happening at McGregor right now, this is where to start. Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com New to McGregor?

"The Doxology" (Jude 24-25) In Jude's closing two verses, the tone shifts from correction to praise. After six weeks of warning his audience about the danger of trusting their own wisdom, their own strength, and their own version of faith, Jude ends with a doxology: a word of glory directed at the only God who is actually able. [SPEAKER NAME] walks through what that word "able" really means, and why it is the most stabilizing truth a believer can hold. The teaching covers God's sovereignty as the foundation of every promise He makes, the specific Greek word Jude uses for "keep" in verse 24 (a word that implies being guarded from the inside, not just from external threat), and what it means that Christ will present us blameless before His Father with joy. Not reluctantly. Not barely. With joy. That Christ endured the cross with joy because of who He was purchasing is not a small thing, and this teaching does not let it pass quickly. Whether you have been walking through Jude from week one or are joining the series here at the close, this episode is for anyone who knows that their greatest spiritual threat is not what comes at them from the outside, but what rises up from within.

Psalms - Songs of the King "A Psalm For The Journey" (Psalm 84) What does it mean to stand before God and give an account? In this Beyond the Notes episode, Pastor Russell Howard opens in Psalm 84:7 and brings that ancient pilgrim language into conversation with 2 Corinthians 5:6-11. He walks through five affirmations Paul makes to believers, covering the source of Christian courage, the reality of death and what comes immediately after, the aim to please Christ in daily life, and the nature of the judgment seat of Christ. He also addresses a common translation question about the word rendered "evil" in 2 Corinthians 5:10, explaining why "worthless" or "empty" more accurately reflects what Paul intended. The judgment seat of Christ is not a courtroom for heaven and hell. It is a stewardship review. This episode helps listeners understand what that means, why it matters, and how to live with more focus and faithfulness because of it.

Easter Sunday afternoon, the worship center transformation began. By Monday morning, the construction crews were already inside. On the April 12 episode of Around McGregor, hosts Mark Bricker, Tamar Miller, and Christian Miller record from inside the construction zone on McGregor's first Sunday in Fellowship Hall. They walk through the full logistics of the transition: where to park, how the new valet entrance works, which nine life groups relocated and where, and how the Fellowship Hall projector setup (upgraded with equipment from the worship center) is making a difference for ministries already. They also talk through the Renew Phase 2 social media coverage, including the renovation Reel that became one of the most viewed in McGregor's history. Beyond the renovation, this episode covers VBS 2026 Rainforest Falls volunteer recruitment at the Main Street table, the Arizona family mission trip informational meeting happening today after the last service in F130, the South Asia mission trip informational meeting next Sunday April 19 in F153, a prospective member class today in the Joy Annex library, and spring adult discipleship courses starting April 22 including a women's study through Colossians, a men's study through Micah, a midweek doctrinal study on the holiness of God, and an elective on revival in American church history. If you are navigating your first Sunday in the new space or just getting your bearings on everything McGregor has going this spring, this episode covers the ground.

How do we fight for the faith when the world pushes back — and false teaching is everywhere? In this week's Midweek Bible Study from the Book of Jude, we work through Jude 17–23 and find a clear game plan for contending for the faith right where God has placed you. Whether you're a business owner, a teacher, a plumber, or a retiree — you have a platform, and you have a testimony. This passage gives every believer four practical ways to stand firm, finish strong, and show mercy to those around them.

What does hope actually look like when nothing is going your way? In this Beyond the Notes episode, Pastor Russell Howard walks through three Old Testament figures, Job, Abraham, and Habakkuk, to draw a clear line between situational optimism and biblical hope. He traces Job 19 as one of the most precisely articulated resurrection hope passages in all of Scripture, written from the depth of Job's suffering rather than after his circumstances improved. He also unpacks how Job's friends, though theologically informed, held a graceless theology of retribution that left them confident but completely wrong, and why the missing ingredient may have been pain itself. The listener walks away with a working definition of biblical hope: a theological conviction that God can be trusted, not because the circumstances cooperate, but because the Redeemer lives. This episode is for anyone whose hope has felt thin in a hard season and wants to know what Scripture actually says about why that forge matters.

He is risen, and McGregor is moving. This Easter episode lands at the intersection of resurrection joy and real-life change.   Mark, Tamar, and Christian celebrate Resurrection Sunday and walk through everything listeners need to know as McGregor transitions from the Worship Center to Fellowship Hall beginning next Sunday, April 12. They cover practical details including updated parking recommendations, valet drop-off locations, new handicap spots on the east side of campus, and what to expect from signage and entry points. They also talk honestly about what it feels like to leave a space that has meant something, and why the timing, right after Easter, is not lost on them.   The episode closes with a full spring calendar preview: the Perspective Member Class deadline (April 5), new adult midweek courses launching April 22 covering the holiness of God, the prophet Micah, the book of Colossians, and revival in American history; the preschool and children's choir spring concert on April 26 in the Fellowship Hall; and the church golf tournament on Saturday, May 16 at The Forest Golf Course.

There is a shortcut people try to take from suffering straight to hope. In this final episode of Living Hope, Pastor Russell Howard teaches through Romans 5:1-5 and names why that shortcut fails. True hope is not the result of optimism. It is the result of a process: suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces a hope that will not disappoint. He closes the Passion Week series with the guarantee that grounds it all: God's love poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

An anchor is only useful based on what it is anchored into. In this episode, Alan Frisch teaches through Hebrews 6:19-20 and shows what happens to a soul that loses its anchor: it drifts, then despairs, then moves toward disaster. He illustrates all three dangers with stories from Scripture and from his own life, including a duck boat trip on the Delaware River that went sideways in a way nobody expected. And he makes the case that the anchor we have in Christ, rooted in the very presence of God, is sure and steadfast.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

Paul does not tell us to pretend suffering is not real. He names it. In this episode, Peter Finch teaches through Romans 8:18-25 and shows why the groaning we feel, both in creation and in ourselves, is not evidence that God has abandoned us. It is evidence that we were made for something better. He makes the case that present suffering and future glory are not in competition. They are on the same scale. And the scale is tipped forever in our favor.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1 is one of the most freeing sentences in all of Scripture. In this episode, Ryan Flint teaches through Romans 8:1-11 and shows how resurrection hope does not just save us from something. It changes who we are. If you have ever felt defined by your failures, your past, or your worst moments, this episode is for you.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

Fear and great joy. That is how Matthew 28:8 describes the women leaving the empty tomb on Easter morning. Not one or the other: both at the same time. In this episode, Brian MacLeod teaches through Matthew 28:5-10 and shows how the risen Christ meets us in our fear rather than requiring us to overcome it first. He closes with a simple four-part framework built on the word HOPE that listeners can carry into their week.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

Matthew - The King has Come "I, Barabbas" (Mark 15:6-15) In this episode of the McGregor Podcast, Pastor Omar Edwards unpacks Mark 15:6-15, exploring the striking exchange where Barabbas — a guilty man — goes free while Jesus, the innocent Son of God, is condemned to die. Discover what this moment reveals about the heart of the gospel: substitution, grace, and the radical love of Christ. Pastor Omar challenges listeners to see themselves in Barabbas and to receive the freedom that only Jesus can give. Tune in for a powerful message of hope, surrender, and the life-changing truth of the cross.

What are you connecting your hope to right now? In this episode, Mike Hess teaches from 1 Peter 1:3 and answers the question that Peter wrote to first-century Christians who had lost jobs, land, and family for their faith. Biblical hope is not wishful thinking. It is the confident expectation that God will be true to his promises, grounded in the historical reality of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. This was true in the first century. Mike makes the case it is just as true in 2026.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

Palm Sunday opens the most significant week the church observes. Everything this week points toward the cross and the empty tomb.   Mark and Tamar walk through everything happening at McGregor during Holy Week: the Newcomers Coffee today on campus between the Faith Building and the Worship Center, the Parent-Child Dedication video airing in Sunday services, the Good News Guys event Monday night at 6:30 PM in the Grace Building (sold out with over 400 tickets), and the Midweek Passion Service on Wednesday, April 1 at 6:30 PM in the Worship Center, which includes dinner, the Lord's Supper, and a benevolence offering. They also talk through the Easter invite cards, share a statistic about how open people actually are to a church invitation, and look ahead to April 12 when McGregor moves to Fellowship Hall for Renew Phase 2.   Whether you're a longtime member, a first-time guest, or someone who hasn't been to church in a while, this week at McGregor gives you more than one place to land. The invitation is open. Resurrection Sunday is April 5.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com New to McGregor? Plan a visit at mcgregor.net/plan-a-visit

On the Saturday between Good Friday and Easter, hope looked buried. In this episode, Rob Flint Jr. walks us through Matthew 27:62-66, the passage most people skip on the way to the resurrection, and shows us what happens when the world's most powerful forces try to contain a dead man. More than that, he asks the honest question: when God feels silent in your own life, where do you turn? This is an episode for anyone who has ever found themselves in the waiting.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com    

What do you do with hope when life has already broken you? In this episode, Pastor Russell Howard takes us to a single verse, 1 Peter 2:24, and unpacks three things the cross of Jesus accomplishes: our burden is borne, our bondage is broken, and our brokenness is healed. This is where Living Hope begins. Not in positive thinking, but in what Christ has already done for us on the cross.   Presented by McGregor Podcast 2026 Visit Our Website at McGregorPodcast.com

Few questions carry more weight than this one: what actually separates Catholic and Protestant belief, and does it still matter? In this Hot Topic teaching, Pastor Russell Howard walks through four major areas where Catholicism and evangelical Christianity converge and diverge, covering the canon of Scripture, the authority of the Bible alone, the veneration of Mary and the saints, and the nature of justification before God. At the heart of the conversation is one defining question: is Christ's work on the cross a finished act or a contribution to an ongoing process? Whether you grew up Catholic, left the faith, or simply want to understand what you believe and why, this teaching gives you a biblical framework to think clearly and speak charitably.

The Fate of the Fallen, from our Midweek Bible Study: "Book of Jude" - 3.18.26 Taught by Russell Howard. Unbelief is not a passive thing. It is active, dangerous, and Scripture takes it with complete seriousness. In this Wednesday night teaching, Pastor Russell Howard works through Jude 5-7, showing how three Old Testament examples, apostate Jews, fallen angels, and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, each trace the same fatal pattern: unbelief leads to rebellion, and rebellion leads to judgment. He addresses the difference between someone who has genuinely trusted Christ and someone who has only ever dabbled around the edges of Christianity. Whether you are wrestling with doubt, examining your own faith, or trying to understand what the Bible says about those who walk away, this teaching gives you a biblical framework to think clearly and stand firm. ➡️ PODCAST CHANNELS McGregor Podcast: https://mcgregorpodcast.com Here at Home: https://hereathomepodcast.com Talk Truth: https://talktruthpodcast.com New to McGregor?
