    Signing Off Week 3

    This week, the story continues. The journey called “Signing Off” moves forward — not as an ending, but as a deeper step into faith, into reflection, and into surrender. Last week, we witnessed something powerful… Baptism Sunday. Twenty-one lives declared new beginnings. Forty-plus this year who have chosen to rise, to leave the old behind, and step boldly into the waters of grace. Each one a testimony, each one a reminder that God is moving here, among us, in this house. Even through the heat, through the sweat, through every challenge — we pressed on. Because what God is doing is greater than any obstacle. So today, as we open our hearts to Week 3 of Signing Off, we are not just hearing another message. We are being invited into transformation. Into courage. Into choosing what must be signed off — so that something new, something eternal, can begin. Welcome… to the Motion Church Podcast.

    Signing Off Week 2

    Welcome back to the Motion Church Podcast. This week, we continue our journey through our powerful series called Signing Off. Last week we asked: What if you had one final chance to leave something behind? What wisdom would you pass on? What truth would you leave as your final words? In Week 2, we lean into that question even deeper. Imagine standing at the edge of your days, surrounded by those you love most. What would you say? What would you want written on the hearts of those who follow after you? The Apostle Paul once faced this very moment—writing to a church in Corinth that was messy, broken, and all too human. Yet through his words, we see reflections of our own lives, our own struggles, and our own hope. Today, as we step into this message, may we hear not just Paul's sign-off… but God's invitation for how we are called to live, love, and finish well. This is Signing Off, Week 2.

    "Today, we begin a brand-new series — Signing Off. Imagine this: you've been given a platform, a stage, a moment. For ten… maybe twenty minutes, you've poured your passion, your knowledge, your heart into the room. And now… the clock is running out. You have only a few breaths left to leave your audience with the most important thing you could possibly say. What will it be? In our world, it's like the endless sea of podcasts — everyone has one, even your mama. But if only a few are listening, how will your words still matter? What final truth, what lasting encouragement, will you sign off with? This is where we start our journey… and this is Week One."

    Welcome back to Bible Birding—where creation speaks and Scripture sings. In Week 3, we journey deeper into the wild beauty of God's Word and world. Today's episode invites us to tune our hearts to the lessons nature reveals, as we explore how birds—especially those noisy, bold, or surprisingly silent ones—teach us about listening, patience, and trust. From the chatter of the Carolina Wren to the quiet moments of waiting in stillness, we'll discover how God meets us in the simple, yet profound, rhythms of the natural world. So grab your binoculars and your Bible—it's time to open both and listen closely. You might be surprised at what takes flight. Let's begin.

    Welcome back to another soul-stirring episode of Motion Church Podcast. Last week, we soared into the idea of rising with wings like eagles — a journey that begins not with action, but with patience. With waiting. And oh, how that's the part we wrestle with most. Today, we continue that flight. In this episode, we turn to one of the most iconic verses in Scripture — one that reminds us of strength renewed, of hope rekindled, and of the divine rhythm that calls us not to run ahead, but to trust. Whether you're in a season of soaring, or one of stillness, this message is for you. Let's dive in.
