Podcasts about baptisms

What happens when faith becomes more cultural than transformational? In week two of our “A Series for the Ville” series, Pastor Terrence challenges us to examine how Louisville's cultural and religious divisions have shaped the Church—and our individual lives. Following Jesus requires more than participating in religious activities; it requires surrendering every part of ourselves to Him and allowing His Word to transform how we think and live. Together, we explore four temptations that can keep us from experiencing genuine transformation: - Embedded religiosity - Cultural partiality - Cognitive dissonance - Generational disillusionment Rather than simply inheriting a form of faith from our families, churches, or culture, we are called to develop a personal relationship with Jesus, submit our beliefs and preferences to God's Word, and live out a faith that produces real fruit. This service includes: - Worship and communion - Baptisms celebrating new life in Christ - An update from Northeast's Grinstead Campus - A message about resisting cultural conformity - A challenge to examine our lives and strengthen what remains Key Scriptures:

September 6, 2026 - Baptisms by Grace Church of Mentor

Scott Lessing shares the remarkable story of planting a church inside Lorain Correctional Institution and how prison ministry can become true disciple-making and church planting. Through consistent relationships, weekly worship, leadership development, and reentry ministry, Scott and Grace Church are seeing God transform lives both inside and outside the prison. Scott serves at Grace Church, a Christian and Missionary Alliance church near Cleveland, Ohio. What began when the warden asked for something more than traditional prison ministry has grown into a church community with weekly services, dozens of volunteers, Bible studies, Alpha, Rooted, recovery ministry, baptisms, a School of Ministry, and intentional discipleship. Greg and Scott also explore the biblical foundation for this work through Luke 4:18 and Matthew 25, discussing Jesus' call to proclaim good news to the poor, freedom for prisoners, and to care for those who are incarcerated. Scott explains why the goal isn't simply to bring a church service into a prison but to build relationships and make disciples who can eventually disciple and lead others. One of the most powerful stories is of a man who spent 47 years incarcerated, completed Grace Church's School of Ministry, was released, joined the church's staff, and was preparing to return to the prison—this time to preach. The church also walks alongside people after release through employment connections, housing support, community, and continued discipleship. Scott's story challenges every church leader to reconsider what it means to go to people instead of simply expecting people to come to church. As he explains, their prison ministry has changed Grace Church itself, creating a congregation that looks more diverse, more broken, and, in his words, more like the first-century church.

For this weeks Mormon News Podcast,  John Dehlin and Meggan Hayes dig into what Bloomberg uncovered about the Church's growing real estate empire, plus warnings about "baseball baptisms" and the push for convert growth, concerns about the Church's new Sunday meeting schedule, the sentencing of a polygamous sect leader, and a new LDS strategy for bringing nonmembers into local meetinghouses.Bloomberg's investigation examines just how much land The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints owns across the United States and how its property holdings have grown. We look at the numbers, where that land is concentrated, and what the investigation reveals about the scale of the Church's real estate portfolio.Links:Bloomberg Digs Into the Church's Land Holdings: https://youtu.be/G0pU8s0hlJUHistorian Matthew Bowman warns against chasing membership growth at the expense of meaningful conversion, pointing to the infamous era of "baseball baptisms." What can that history teach us about today's emphasis on missionary numbers and Church growth?Links:Beware the "Baseball Baptisms": https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2026/08/26/be-wary-baseball-baptisms-quest/Changes are also coming to Sunday meetings. A new schedule means shorter classes and less transition time between meetings. Supporters see a more streamlined Sunday experience, while others worry about losing valuable time for discussion, connection, and community.Links:Is Sunday Church Getting Too Short?: https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2026/08/26/mormon-land-podcast-we-dissect-new/We also cover the sentencing of polygamous sect leader Samuel Bateman, who was already serving a lengthy federal prison sentence and has now received additional prison time in Arizona.Links:Polygamous Sect Leader Sentenced: https://www.mormonnews.com/story/polygamous-sect-leader-faces-sentencing-after-girls-found-in-trailer-jskgFinally, we look at the LDS Church's "Activity Sharing" program. Public-facing ward activities can appear in online searches and allow nonmembers to find local events and RSVP. The Church is encouraging wards to make activities more accessible to outsiders, while its own success stories show these community events can also lead to Sunday attendance and contact with missionaries. We look at how this fits with new research being conducted among nonmembers who attend LDS activities.Links:The Church's New Activity-Sharing Push: https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/activity-sharing-a-simple-way-for-latter-day-saints-to-invite-friends-to-church-ward-events___________________Show NotesYouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

In today's extra episode, I talk with Warren Smith about some news items that are slightly (even significantly) outside of our normal charity and philanthropy “beat.” They include:   John MacArthur's replacement has been named.  WORLD and other news outlets are reporting that “Grace Community Church in California affirmed a new senior pastor, more than a year after the death of renowned theologian John MacArthur. World Compassion Terry Law Ministries has a new name. Another sports gambling tragedy. It's an epidemic that churches and ministries have largely ignored, as our own Makella Knowles reported here.

This week we celebrate two additional baptisms and Pastor Michael shares Vision for the Next Season. 2 Corinthians 5:17-20, Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

There's been a sharp drop in the number of baptisms over the last decade in Catholic and Presbyterian churches across the island. What does that say about society today and what might it mean for organised religion in the decades to come? Audrey is joined by Dr Tom Finnegan (chairperson of The Iona Institute), Dr Rebecca Stevenson (Public Affairs Officer with the Presbyterian Church in Ireland) and sociologist of religion Professor Gladys Ganiel (Queen's University Belfast).Who is willing to stand up and fight for those being dehumanised and discriminated against in this society? Have activists become jaded? Who are the courageous and brave of today? Does anyone using a hashtag now deem themselves an activist? Trade unionist Dr Kellie Turtle, theologian Dr Elaine Storkey, and civil rights historian and author Forrest Issac Jones compare the activists of today with those during the civil rights movements of the 1960s.Sally Hayden has been reporting on migration into Europa for more than a decade. She recently returned to island of Lampedusa, the most southerly point of Europe and the destination of people taking dangerous journeys from the coast of Libya. She explains how the humanitarian and political situation has changed.

The number of children being baptised in Ireland has fallen by a third in ten years. That's according to research carried out by the Iona Institute. But why are 2/3 of parents still Christening their children when only a third get married in the Church? Newstalk Sarah Madden reports on convenience Catholicism and the other options available to secular new parents.

In this powerful service, we celebrate life change through baptism, worship together through the song "I've Witnessed It," and dive into the final chapter of Jonah. Through Jonah's story, we explore God's heart for people who are far from Him and the call for every believer to be a witness of Jesus in their daily lives. This service includes: - Worship and prayer - Baptisms celebrating new life in Christ - A message from the book of Jonah - A challenge to embrace evangelism and share God's love with others - Vision and updates on Northeast's new Grinstead Campus Tyler reminds us that while Jonah resisted God's call to reach Nineveh, Jesus calls His followers to go and make disciples. The message challenges us to move beyond comfort, care about those far from God, and take practical steps to share our faith with our families, friends, coworkers, and community. Key Scripture:

“Baby Dedications & Baptisms” from www.vopwc.org by Pastor N. R. Taylor, Jr.. Released: 2026. Genre: Vocal. The post Baby Dedications and Baptisms appeared first on Voice Of Praise Worship Center.

Christian voyager Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) led his third and last expedition to the St.-Lawrence river valley in 1541. A new headquarters was established a few miles upstream from the Amerindian village of Stadacona, near the present site of Quebec City. This time Cartier was to be followed by Jean Francois de la Rocque, sieur de Roberval, with a party of colonists. After a wait which lasted through the following winter and the Baptism of Chief Donnacona, Cartier set sail for home, only to meet Roberval’s party in three tall ships in the harbor of what is now St. John’s, Newfoundland. Diamonds of Canada, mined by Jacques Cartier's men at the mouth of Rivière du Cap-Rouge proved to be worthless quartz. Cartier’s "treasure" is remembered in the name of Québec’s Cape Diamond or Cap aux Diamants and also in the French proverb "Faux comme un diamant du Canada", "As false as Canadian diamonds."

This week Pastor Val shares a Sabbatical update as Pastor Michael returns and we celebrate week one of Baptisms!  2 Cor 5:16-20

The third elementary principle listed by the Hebrew writer is “the doctrine of baptisms” (Hebrews 6:2). The shadow of the Old Testament is filled with “various washings” (Hebrews 9:10) which point to the true washing in Jesus' blood accessed in baptism.

Join Pastor Hennie Bosman for our ONE Service message!

The many washings of the levitical ritual bore eloquent witness that humans are defiled by sin and stand in need of the cleansing that is only supplied by the blood and Spirit of Christ.

An investor in Germany is offering families 500 euros for every child they have baptized. The local diocese has acknowledged the donorʼs intentions but stressed that, from the Churchʼs point of view, there is no financial barrier to baptism in the first place. We talk more about this and other Church news with Matthew Bunson.

This week, both churches found themselves in Exodus... just from different angles. Tim was back in the pulpit at Lakeview, preaching in the church's Exodus series for the first time in a while. Meanwhile, Andrew also found himself in Exodus as part of Safety Harbor's Kingdom Come series, proving that sometimes the lectionary and sermon calendars accidentally become best friends.It was Baptism Sunday at Lakeview, one of the best kinds of Sundays, as the church celebrated new life in Christ and watched people publicly declare their faith.Over at Safety Harbor, a new chapter is beginning as the preschool prepares to move out. That leaves a lot of empty space and a lot of questions. How should the church use it? More classrooms? Ministry space? Offices? A pastor-sized coffee shop? We talk through the opportunities and challenges that come with suddenly having room to dream.We also spend some time discussing the practical side of communion. How often should churches celebrate it? What details matter? What traditions are worth preserving, and where is there room for flexibility?And with summer quickly winding down, we're looking ahead to another school year and another busy ministry season. Fall is almost here, and pastors everywhere know what that means. The calendar is about to fill up fast.It's another week of preaching, planning, baptizing, and trying to make the most of the spaces and seasons God has entrusted to us.

This week we hear a video message from Pastor Michael as we prepare for Baptisms the next few Sundays and then hear from Brenda Wehrly, our Community Life Director, on the upcoming things we have in store coming out of the summer for our Fall Reset.  Acts 2:42-47

August 2, 2026 - Baptisms by Grace Church of Mentor

This week, we take a break from Galatians for Kickoff Sunday! We are celebrating God's faithfulness as we launch our new Sanctuary with Baptisms and a shorter message about our calling as the Church!

Salvation is not the finish line in the Christian life—it's just the starting point.In Episode 14 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the doctrine of baptisms, one of the six foundational principles of the Doctrine of Christ found in Hebrews 6. While many believers understand salvation and water baptism, few realize that the New Testament reveals three distinct baptisms that are vital to spiritual growth and maturity.The Holy Spirit baptizes believers into the body of Christ at salvation, water baptism serves as a public declaration of faith and obedience, and Jesus baptizes believers with the Holy Spirit for power and effective witness. This third baptism was fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost and remains available to believers today.The baptism of the Holy Spirit includes a supernatural prayer language that edifies, strengthens, and enables believers to pray mysteries directly to God. If you've ever wondered, "I'm born again—what now?" this episode reveals how to move beyond a defeated Christian life and walk in the fullness of God's provision and power.

Meg speaks on our Baptism Sunday about the joy of a life transformed by Jesus and the resurrection community he forms us into.

What if you've only been taught one baptism… when the New Testament speaks of three? In this powerful message, Pastor Bailey Bryant opens Hebrews 6 and shows why the "doctrine of baptisms" was considered foundational to the early church—and why rediscovering it can transform your walk with Jesus today. You'll discover: • Why salvation itself is a baptism. • Who performs each of the three baptisms found in the New Testament. • Why water baptism is far more than a symbolic ceremony. • What Jesus meant by the "unforgivable sin." • Why the baptism in the Holy Spirit is essential for living a victorious, Spirit-empowered life. Pastor Bailey also shares his personal testimony of how Jesus set him free from a 15-year addiction to pornography through the power of the Holy Spirit—a freedom that has now lasted more than 14 years. Whether you're exploring faith, have never been baptized, or have followed Jesus for decades, this message will challenge assumptions, deepen your understanding of Scripture, and invite you into the joy God intends for every believer. The Christian life begins in Christ, is declared in water, and is empowered by the Holy Spirit. It's time to rediscover the Joy of the Baptisms.

Have you received the Holy Spirit since you believed? If so, are you acting like it? In this first message of our new series "The Helper", Pastor Joel Sims shows us from the scriptures the 3 baptisms. Baptism into Jesus, which is salvation; baptism into water, which is repentance, or leaving behind your sin and this world; and baptism in the Holy Spirit, giving you power to be a witness to Jesus.

Pastor Robert Tisdale preaches at Tampa Life Church from John 9, launching deeper into his “MUD” series and contrasting how Jesus and the disciples viewed a man blind from birth: others saw a problem and looked for blame, but Jesus saw potential and God's glory. He warns that diagnoses and labels can help explain pain but become dangerous when they define identity, limit imagination, and turn into a destination; he urges the church to seek deliverance as intensely as diagnosis. He cites Hebrews 11:6 on faith and references the nocebo effect to show how labels shape outcomes, calls people to renounce negative self-talk and self-blame, prays for healing and freedom, and points to Jesus' command after making mud—go wash—even when the touch feels incomplete and confusing.00:00 Welcome and Baptisms00:19 Series Recap MUD02:11 John 9 Setup03:29 Labels vs Deliverance08:04 Faith to Be Whole08:59 Testimonies and Response12:23 Prayer and Breakthrough15:42 Hebrews 11 Explained18:21 Nocebo and Identity21:02 Renounce the Labels25:18 Stop Self Blame Loops31:30 Go Wash and Obey

It's a week of transitions as both Lakeview and Safety Harbor are saying goodbye to staff members. We talk about the often-overlooked art of offboarding well, celebrating people for their service, blessing them on their way out, and remembering that healthy ministry includes healthy endings.Tim had one of those marathon ministry Sundays that remind you why pastors sleep on Mondays. Three services in the morning, a new members class in the evening, and just enough caffeine to make it all happen. Somehow, he survived.Meanwhile, Andrew took what felt like half of Safety Harbor Community Church to a ballgame. It turned out to be one of those rare church events that required almost no convincing, no complicated logistics, and left everyone asking when the next one would be.The conversation also turns to baptism. When should a baptism happen publicly in front of the congregation? Are there situations where a private baptism is appropriate? What are the pastoral considerations that go into making that decision?It's a conversation about transitions, long Sundays, easy ministry wins, and helping people take their next step of faith.

After a trip to Georgia that included a surprise goose chase with a long-lost cousin, Jase gets an idea of why millions of Christians think faith is about being a rule follower. The guys wrestle with the difference between guilt and shame, why a rule-based mindset falls short, and how culture often avoids truth instead of dealing with it. They highlight a powerful moment from a live event that reminds us that real change is about relationship, not just behavior.
