Pursuing The Path Podcast

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackAdmittedly, it’s not a topic we like to talk about. In fact, many are looking to eliminate the very idea of it altogether or at the very least reduce hell’s “temperature” a bit. What they fail to realize is that Jesus had more to say on the subject than all of the Bible’s other preachers combined. And as the Son of God, isn’t He the best source for the truth on the matter?

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackYou’ll not find a more stark contrast in all of Scripture than what’s found here. In the course of just 10 verses the apostle Paul paints a vivid mix of dark despair regarding the human condition and radiant hope found in the divine solution. It’s a powerful reminder that sin doesn’t have the final word.—that there is great hope found in what God has done!

Series: The Final HoursService: Sun PMType: Bible ClassSpeaker: Terry SlackJesus and His men now arrive at Gethsemane. More than any other place, here we see the humanity of Jesus as He prays intensely to the Father regarding what awaits Him. But it's not the physical aspects of the cross that distress Him, but the spiritual aspects.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackWe live in a day of imitations, a time when the artificial can fool us into thinking it’s the genuine article. I suppose that’s fine when it comes to flowers or furniture, but it’s an entirely different matter when it comes to people. While God calls us to a life of authenticity, avoiding the game of pretense requires decision and determination. We’ll talk about the need to be authentic in a world of fakes.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackThis morning will be the first of two lessons as we look to appoint additional men to serve in the capacity of deacon. We’ll start by taking a look at the original term itself before studying what many believe to be a prototype of the role that appears later in the church. Please be prayerful for His guidance and blessing as we navigate this process in the weeks to come.

Series: Great OT StoriesService: WedType: Bible ClassSpeaker: Devin WeissThis lesson traces Gideon’s journey from fearful farmer to victorious leader, showing how God’s power works through human weakness. Yet Gideon’s story also warns of pride and misplaced worship—tearing down idols only to build new ones. His life mirrors Israel’s cycle of forgetting their true King, reminding us that only God deserves the throne.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackThroughout the Bible we find warnings from God, each one designed to deter men from sin and point them toward the path to heaven. Hebrews contains several such warnings that are just as relevant to us in the 21st century as they were to those in the 1st. Using a psalm written by David the writer directs his readers to several lessons of faith to be learned from those who proved faithless.

Series: The Final HoursService: Sun PMType: Bible ClassSpeaker: Terry SlackWe wrap up our study of John 16:16-33 and move into the greatest prayer ever prayed in John 17. Here we find the things that were paramount in Jesus' mind as He prepared to give His life on the cross.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackHaving looked into the background and at the prototype, we now come to the only passage in the NT that discusses deacons in any specific way. Though they are charged with serving a local church, Paul’s list of qualities for them are similar (though not identical) to those required of shepherds. In both there is a clear emphasis placed on spiritual quality.

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Terry SlackWhat is it that really matters? In the 100’s of pages of text in our Bible, what’s the one thing that’s essential? Paul answers that question with the cross. More than any other element the cross proclaims God’s great love for us. Love isn’t just a message of Christianity, it’s the message of Christianity. The gospel—God’s good news—is that regardless of our flaws and failings, He loves us with a love so rich that He wrote in red.
