Send us Fan MailOn Pentecost Pastor Mark walks through 2 Kings 5 and the story of Naaman and Gehazi. He invites us into seeking the simple things of faith in God.Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose.Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.The Village Churchvillagersonline@gmail.comMore information at www.villagersonline.com
This week, we hear from Pastor Brad as he shares his favorite bible story. Found in 2 Kings, we see the story of Naaman and how God used a little girl from Israel, the King of Israel, and Elisha to heal Naaman both physically and spiritually. Our big truth is that God's salvation is for everyone. Everyone who realizes that they need it and that they can't earn it. Everyone who humbly submits to God's way. Everyone in whom God produces new life, and it is for everyone, while using willing nobodies. God used a young girl who displays grace, in a foreshadowing of Jesus' forgiveness, to forgive Naaman and share a message from God with Naaman. Praise God that He uses broken, messy nobodies like us to get his message to others around us. Be thinking of your “one” as we continue in the year, and who you might be in prayer for daily, for opportunities to share the gospel with. This sermon is from 5/17/2026

“At this time Aramean raiders had invaded the land of Israel, and among their captives was a young girl who had been given to Naaman’s wife as a maid. One day the girl said to her mistress, ‘I wish my master would go to see the prophet in Samaria. He would heal him of his leprosy.’” (2 Kings 5:2–3 NLT) Often the most profound and far-reaching spiritual opportunities are those that happen “behind the scenes.” What’s more, the person who appears to be the main figure in a given situation isn’t always the person God chooses to work through. One example of this can be found in the book of Nehemiah. King Artaxerxes was obviously the most powerful man in the Persian Empire, ruling over Babylon and much of the Middle East. His word was law. Nehemiah, in contrast, served as the king’s cupbearer. Though his position was several steps down from the ruler of the kingdom, Nehemiah served a vital function—one that kept him always near Artaxerxes. A cupbearer’s job was to taste a drink before the king did to make sure it hadn’t been poisoned. If a drink was poisonous, then that was the end of the cupbearer’s job—and the end of his life for that matter. But the cupbearer did more than sip beverages. Because he spent so much time around the king, he often would become an advisor to the monarch, someone who exerted influence on him. Cupbearer was a very prestigious position in the palace. A cupbearer lived in affluence and influence. But Nehemiah had another allegiance. He was, after all, an exiled Jew—one who felt passionately about his abandoned homeland. He knew that the walls of Jerusalem had been burned down and were lying in rubble—and that something needed to be done. So, he leveraged his position, at great risk to himself. He asked the king to allow him to return to Jerusalem with a group of fellow exiles to rebuild the walls. He could have lost his life by asking such a thing. But he saw a spiritual opportunity to work behind the scenes to accomplish something meaningful. Another example can be found in 2 Kings 5. A young Jewish girl, whose name is never mentioned, said to her mistress, “I wish my master would go to see the prophet in Samaria. He would heal him of his leprosy” (verse 3 NLT). Her master was Naaman, the commander of the Aramean army—one of the towering figures of his day. The young girl was a maid who served Naaman’s wife. She, too, saw a spiritual opportunity to work behind the scenes and seized it. Her subtle suggestion prompted Naaman to seek out the Israelite prophet Elisha. Naaman made the journey to Israel and was healed of his leprosy. These stories serve as reminders that God can and does use anyone to accomplish His purposes. And though the names of the people He uses may be lost to history, they are never lost to Him. He will faithfully reward all who make themselves available to Him.

This chapter highlights the healing of Naaman the leper.
Sadly, we had a technical failure that prevented us from capturing a live recording of our April 26 message. But here is Pastor Travis working through the passage from home in a sort of podcast version of the Sunday sermon. here is a look at that passage
No matter what, we must see ourselves as servants of God.
Send us Fan MailThe Bible Project Daily Podcast is an in-depth, daily study of the entire Bible, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. Episode Notes: How to Be a Servant of the Lord. (2 Kings 5 1-27)If you're a believer in Jesus Christ, you are automatically a servant of the Lord, and you are also called to serve, to minister to other people. So, the question is not whether you're a servant. The question is: What makes someone a good servant of the Lord? There's a passage in the Old Testament that gives us a vivid illustration of what true servanthood looks like. And what makes this passage especially interesting is that it contains several servants, each contributing something different to the picture it paints. So, join me in 2 Kings chapter 5, one of the most familiar stories in the Old Testament — the healing of Naaman.Support the showFollow and support me on Patreon.Jeremy McCandless | Creating Podcasts and Bible Study Resources | PatreonTo receive my weekly newsletter and keep up to date with all five of my podcasts, subscribe at:Jeremy McCandless | SubstackCheck out my other Podcasts.The Bible Project: https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.comHistory of the Christian Church: https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comThe L.I.F.E.

April 19, 2026 sermon from Providence Reformed Church Las Vegas by Pastor Travis Peterson -- Note that this message was recorded outdoors in a local park.
Message Take Aways:1. Naaman was suffering from a deadly condition that seemed incurable, serving as a picture of sinful humanity—“Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned” Romans 5:122. Naaman experienced a miraculous cleansing by exercising genuine faith demonstrated through humble obedience—“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:93. Gehazi's covetousness led him to trespass, which he failed to confess, resulting in him suffering the heavy consequences of sin—“But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.” James 1:14-15
In Discipleship Weekly we discuss the week's sermon text, sharing insights, questions, and how it might apply to us. This week Ryan Cagno talked with Verna Schwartz about 2 Kings 5 - the fascinating and enigmatic story of Seven Ducks in Muddy Water! It's a story of prejudices, cross-cultural mission, and the surprising grace of God!

God is opposed to the proud and gives grace to the humble. In this powerful message, Pastor Jeff Schreve shows how Naaman's breakthrough in 2 Kings 5 began when he jettisoned his pride. Learn why humility is the doorway to God's help, how pride blinds us to simple answers, and how bowing low positions you to experience God's mighty hand.
We all have trouble, and we'll go to great lengths to make it go away. But what if God's answer is closer and simpler than you think? Walking through 2 Kings 5, Pastor Jeff Schreve explains how Naaman's journey—from rage at a “too simple” command to the healing he longed for—teaches us to lay down our pride, take God at His word, and act in faith. Simple obedience still opens the door to God's power.
In 2 Kings 5, we meet Naaman: a powerful military commander with status, wealth, and influence. Yet beneath all his success he carries a hidden disease: leprosy. His physical illness becomes a picture of a deeper spiritual reality.Through Naaman's story we see that:• Sin starts small but grows• Sin affects every person• Sin is ultimately a sickness of the heartWhen Naaman seeks healing, he is offended by the cure. Why? Because God's solution challenges his pride.The healing God offers is:Too simple: we are saved through faith in JesusToo free: we are saved by grace, not our earningToo exclusive: we are saved only by the name of JesusThis is the same message at the center of the gospel: salvation comes by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not through our own effort, status, or morality.Just like Naaman, the only way to be healed is to humble ourselves, step down from our pride, and receive what God has done for us.

In this powerful Bible study from 2 Kings 5, we walk through the story of Naaman — a great and honorable man whose pride, insecurity, and expectations nearly caused him to walk away from his miracle. This episode reveals how God often targets the heart before the symptom, and how what looks like pride on the outside may actually be deep insecurity on the inside. Through Naaman, Elisha, and Gehazi, we see a clear picture of humility, obedience, grace, and the danger of hidden sin. If you've ever felt frustrated because God didn't move the way you expected, this teaching will help you recognize what may be happening beneath the surface — and how to position your heart for true healing and wholeness. In This Episode, You'll Learn: How pride and insecurity can quietly block your healingWhy God often addresses the heart before the outward problemHow Naaman's expectations nearly caused him to miss his miracleThe difference between works and grace in receiving from GodWhat Gehazi's story teaches about hidden sin and spiritual consequencesHow humility and simple obedience open the door to true wholeness Chapters 00:00 Exploring the Human Heart: Pride and Insecurity 03:00 Naaman's Journey: A Study of 2 Kings 5 05:46 The Complexity of Naaman: Greatness and Leprosy 08:57 The Young Girl's Insight: Compassion in Captivity 12:03 The Role of Expectations: Naaman's Anger and Disappointment 15:09 The Path to Healing: Humility and Obedience 17:47 The Gospel Foreshadowed: Naaman's Cleansing 21:06 Elisha's Heart: Compassion Over Glory 24:04 Gehazi's Greed: A Contrast to Naaman's Transformation 26:51 The Consequences of Hidden Pride 29:48 The Call to Self-Reflection and Healing Key Scripture: 2 Kings 5Ephesians 5:25–26Exodus 20:24Psalm 139 (Search my heart, O God) About your host: Jaime Luce' testimony has daunting personal mountains and treacherous financial valleys.

2 Kings chapter 5 tells the story of Naaman, a powerful military commander afflicted with leprosy, who encounters the God of Israel through the prophet Elisha. Though Naaman initially resists the simple instruction to wash in the Jordan, healing comes when he humbles himself and obeys God's word. The chapter contrasts true faith with pride and greed, as Gehazi's deceit leads to judgment. This passage teaches that God's grace is not earned by status or power, but received through humility, obedience, and sincere faith.
