Podcast - Parkway Christian Center

When discipling your kids, do we even know what we are doing? Join Pastor Seth and Kayla Wallenburn as they talk with Pastor Jay about Parkway Kids Ministry. When discipling kids, perfection isn't the goal, consistency is. Discipleship takes place in small moments, not in the big moments. Small moments where we model the actions and behaviors that are important. The book talked about during this podcast: Practicing the Way with John Mark Comer https://a.co/d/iY3bksr

Most believers today are bothered by the pests of the enemy because the water of God comes to them and gets stuck, unable to flow through like it's supposed to. Listen as Pastor Jay walks through the 10 plagues brought upon Egypt, how each plague challenged a specific Egyptian God, how it compares to the modern American idols, and what God may be confronting again today.

A Tale of Two Siblings with Dr. Nick Garza Dr. Nick Garza, from Convoy of Hope, joins us at Parkway and gives us an update on Convoy of Hope, a unique word for Parkway, and then walks us through the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15. How the son who stayed had just as many issues as the one who left and what we can learn from that.

Join Mark Swanburg as he talks through the ministry gifts and how we use our gifts to fit together as a body. How we don't get to see the full picture until we pursue our gifts (our piece of the puzzle) and our place with others.

Join Pastor Chase Smotherman as he walks us through the first four Egyptian plagues and how God separated the people of Israel and what that means for us.

The oppression the Israelites were living under in Egypt was multi-dimensional, and it mirrors many of the spiritual and cultural pressures we see in society today. What did that look like in Exodus-and what does it still look like today?

This Sunday we celebrated our PreK, Elementary, and High School Seniors who were moving on to the next grade or season in their life. Then Pastor Chase shared a word and vision for the power that a Yes can bring. Specifically over the lives of our Interns who were graduating from the program and launching into their ministry lives.

In part 2 of this study in Exodus, Pastor Jay digs into Deliverance. Deliverance for the Israelites, wasn't just God preparing the leaders. It was God preparing the people. And it wasn't until their cries turned toward God that everything changed.

Listen as we discover how the lodging place confronts past disobedience with tomorrows purpose and learn how we can be a people that sees the fire of God and says, "This I got to see!"

Apart from our relationship with Jesus, Unity and togetherness is what calls us out as separate from the world. We can't be 99 for the 1 if the 99 don't get along with one another.

Logos is the written word of God (The Bible). When God quickens a word from the Logos, it becomes Rhema, a specific, timely word.

Where can offense grow easily? Join Pastor Seth Wallenburn, our Children's Pastor, as he walks us through four places where offenses grow easily.

It's on God's justice where you meet mercy. He is the God of Both. Justice sets the foundation for mercy. He desires mercy and not sacrifice. God desires a relationship over the rules. (It doesn't eliminate the need for Justice, but goes before justice)

Join Jaymee Zilembo, our Women's Ministry Leader as she speaks to us about how God includes us in His story.

Spending time WITH God is better than spending time ALONGSIDE Him. both are valuable but only one should be a priority.

How you address the sin at large is not how you approach a sin in a person. Join Leanna Smotherman as she shares her heart for getting ready for the next season at Parkway.

We heard from 3 ministry leaders this Sunday on Prayer + Outreach, Discipleship, and A Place for Everyone 1- Crystal Allemand who challenged us to see our life as a mission field. That we are called to go out into the community and world as sowers and waters, not just harvesters. Then she shared about the upcoming opportunities at Parkway for prayer and outreach. 2- Mark Swanburg shared about the difference between believing and following. How discipleship happens when you are in The Word and in Relationship with God. That through Discipleship, you can discover your gifts. 3- John Anderson challenged us by asking us, "Why are you here?" Then talked about how the body is made of many parts and a dangerous prayer we can be praying, "Here I am Lord, USE ME!"

Listen as Manny Velazquez of The House of Glory here in Grants Pass, Oregon shares his amazing story of going from New Age beliefs to belief in Jesus. As he asks the Lord to humble him without tragedy and to make him usable.

Genesis - ultimately tells us that God is His sovereignty will constantly chase after a relationship with His creation, not because He is desperate, but because He desires you. The Truth is that God is sovereign. In His sovereignty, He gave you and I choice. In that choice, before we could choose Him, He chose us.

Faith is the substance of belief that the God who made a way for me already, is making a way for me to become the person He has called me to be. He is both out front calling me and behind me defending me.
