Listen to this week's sermon, Parables In Practice preached by Pastor Kenneth Dyches from Luke 19:11-27

Samuel Goulet shares a practical and encouraging message on how strong families are built by centering the home on Christ. He explains that discipleship begins at home through both testimony and structure—parents modeling God's faithfulness while creating a culture marked by love, forgiveness, compassion, and daily spiritual formation. This episode challenges families to move beyond condemnation, embrace conviction, and intentionally build homes where God's Word is lived out, passed on, and reflected in everyday life.

What's up family?I've been thinking a lot about what it means to be faithful with anything that God has placed in our hands, especially when we may not always feel confident, qualified, or sure of where we fit, in the space of ministry.Sometimes we may look at other people's gifts, platforms, ministries, or callings and wonder if what God is doing in us is enough. But the more I sit with it, the more I'm reminded that growth is not always measured by platforms, numbers, titles, or visibility. Sometimes the deepest growth is what God is doing quietly in our hearts.In this episode, I talk through wrestling with the insecurity of being a woman in ministry, keeping the focus on Christ, and learning to trust that our testimony is enough when it points people back to the Savior.For anyone who feels unsure of their place, insecure in their calling, or tempted to compare what God is doing in their life to someone else's, I pray this episode reminds you that where God has you matters. Your home matters. Your local church matters. Your dorm matters. Keep the main thing the main thing: Christ, His glory, and making Him name known wherever He sends you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Before visiting a church or following an online pastor, make sure you ask the hard questions about who Jesus is, how salvation works, and whether the church stands on biblical truth or cultural compromise. In this episode, C.L. Whiteside breaks down five red-flag beliefs that should make you run from any church that twists Scripture, promotes deception, or leads people away from the truth that sets them free.

What's up family? This week i'm back with a conversation on anxiety, surrender, and the peace of God.I've been going through Philippians 4 and what it means to bring everything to God in prayer: every request, every worry, every need, and every anxious thought. So often, we say we trust God, but our minds are still racing and our hearts are still carrying what He invited us to surrender. I talk through making our requests known to God with thanksgiving, the difference between reading scripture and truly meditating on it, and how His peace guards our hearts and minds in a way nothing else can.This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or tired from trying to figure everything out on their own. I pray this reminds you that God is not asking you to carry it alone. He is inviting you to come to Him, trust Him, and receive the peace that only He can give.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard addresses an important question about divine healing and the gifts of the Spirit.In 1 Corinthians 12, the apostle Paul lists the “gifts of healing” (verse 9) among the spiritual gifts and makes it clear that not every believer operates in this gift (verse 30). Yet in Mark 16:18, Jesus said believers would lay hands on the sick and they would recover.Is healing a special ministry given only to certain individuals, or is it a sign that can follow any Spirit-filled believer? Dr. Bernard responds to this important question, offering clarity and balance on a topic that is central to Pentecostal theology and practice.For further study, see Dr. Bernard's book Spiritual Gifts, available at PentecostalPublishing.com.

Philippians 4:4 Liberty Church

This week, Pastor AJ challenged us with one important question: “What are you known for?” In 1 Corinthians 4, Paul says he wanted to be known as a faithful servant of Christ, seeking the approval of God over the approval of people. We were reminded that heroes of the faith are not defined by platform or recognition, but by obedience. Just like Edward Kimball's simple faithfulness led to a ripple effect that impacted generations, our obedience to God can impact lives in ways we may never see.

Discover how the nature of God is centered on giving and blessing His children, and learn about the importance of approaching God with confidence and understanding His will for prosperity and blessing in our lives.

This week, I'm humbled and honored to bring you a conversation with someone whose ministry has made a huge impact in my walk recently— Pastor and Author Francis Chan. If you've been with me this season of In Totality, you know I've been taking my Patreon community through his latest book, Beloved, and this conversation is one that I've been praying for— and I cannot wait for you to hear it.Beloved has deeply shaped how I see my relationship with God. It confronted something I didn't even realize I was doing — trying to serve Him from a place of striving and performance, like I could somehow pay God back, instead of simply receiving His love as a daughter.Francis and I talk about what it means to know God as Father — not just as Judge or Lord or the One we serve — and how easy it is to miss the very thing we were made for: enjoying Him.We get into the difference between performing for God and truly abiding in Him, and why His love has to stay at the center of everything. You are going to want to listen to this more than once!My prayer for you is that this episode helps you slow down, receive, and remember — you are not just called to love Him. You are invited to remain in Him.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Love: The Defining Mark of a Believer | Apostle Cathy Coppola Is the world recognizing you by your love? Jesus didn't say the world would know us by our titles, our buildings, or even our miracles—He said they would know us by our love for one another. Love is not a suggestion; it is the primary evidence of the Holy Spirit's residence in your life. In a world filled with division and darkness, the love of a believer is a supernatural force that shatters the power of the enemy. Move beyond "human affection" into Agape power, where your love becomes a portal for the Glory of God to invade the earth.

So many of us are living with an identity shaped by the world, our feelings, our achievements, our past, our pain, our personality, or what other people have said about us. But scripture gives us a different foundation. Our identity is not something we discover inside ourselves; it is something declared by God.In this episode, I'm here with the team talking through what it means to be created in the image of God, reborn in Christ, and no longer defined by the old self, and I really enjoyed this conversation! We talk about why following your heart is not enough, why adding Christ onto parts of your life is different from being fully surrendered, and why true transformation is not renovation. it is resurrection.This conversation is for anyone who has been asking, “Do I really know who I am in Christ?"My prayer is that this episode reminds you that you are loved, adopted, justified, and called to live faithfully, not perfectly, but surrendered.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Since 2023, revival has been something I haven't been able to shake. It's been a quiet stirring, a vision of generations coming together in one voice to honor Jesus.In this episode, I share what revival means through a biblical lens and what we're beginning to see unfold today—especially among young people. There's a hunger rising, not for religion, but for something real.This isn't about a single place or moment—it's about hearts being awakened and lives being restored. Revival is here… and it's growing.

Listen to this week's sermon, Parables In Practice preached by Rev. Jason Dunn (Pastor of Congregational Care & Missions) from Luke 16:1-13.

In this message, Samuel Goulet unpacks the biblical meaning of “Paraclete” (Paraklētos)—the Holy Spirit as the One who comes alongside as helper, teacher, comforter, and advocate—and shows how Jesus models this role for us. Walking through key passages in John 14–16 and 1 John 2, he invites listeners to trust the Spirit's guidance, correction, and encouragement in everyday life, from overcoming insecurity to receiving conviction without condemnation. The sermon closes with a practical challenge: don't let God's grace “pool up,” but let it flow outward as we comfort, strengthen, restore, and bear burdens for one another in real community.

We talk about the pace and responsibilities of ministry and stewardship, and learning how to slow down enough to hear God in the stillness. He shares how worship became more than music for him, and how true worship is not just the songs we sing, but the life we live in response to God's nature.This episode is for anyone who yearns to hear from God or learn how to worship Him with more than words. I pray it reminds you that God is not just after a moment. He is after your heart, your life, and your yes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when everything is broken and no one steps in to fix it?In this message from Isaiah 59:15–20, Pastor Jason Barnett explores a world where truth has collapsed, justice has failed, and humanity is unable to repair what's gone wrong. But instead of leaving things as they are, God does something unexpected—He steps in Himself.This sermon connects ancient Scripture to real life today, addressing the brokenness we see in the world, in our relationships, and within our own hearts. It also points clearly to Jesus as the Redeemer who enters into our mess and brings lasting hope.Send us Fan MailLinkoln shares his story on why he started coming to Ravenna Church of the Nazarene and shares why you should consider doing the same.Ravenna Church of the Nazarene530 Main Street, Ravenna, KY 40472Support the showThe Dirt Path Sermon Podcast is a place for real sermons that speak to real life.

Send us a Text Message - include your name!In this episode of Faith Over Breakfast, Pastor Eric and Pastor Andy reflect on the difference between topical preaching and exegetical preaching, and on the ways churches tend to use each. They consider why people often assume one approach is superior to the other, while drawing on their own experience both of sitting under these styles of preaching and of using them in the work of ministry. Along the way, they suggest that when either approach is relied on too heavily, the church can lose something vital. Over time, an imbalance in preaching does not simply shape sermons; it also shapes the kind of disciples a church is forming.Beyond The BeaconJoin Bishop Kevin Sweeney for inspired interviews with Catholics living out our faith!Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showSupport"Faith Over Breakfast with Pastors Andy & Eric" is a weekly podcast where Pastors Andy and Eric come together over a imaginary delicious breakfast to talk about faith, food, sermons, culture, and more.

 In 2 Chronicles 32:31, we find one of the most sobering statements in Scripture: “God left him to himself, in order to test him and to know all that was in his heart.” What does it mean when God “steps back”? Is it abandonment… or something deeper? Is God silent, or is He just testing your heart? In this video, we dive into the powerful (and often misunderstood) message of 2 Chronicles 32:31 to understand why God sometimes "withdraws" His visible presence from our lives. Connect with us: YouTube: YouTube.com/@soul02-oxygen Facebook: @LP.Oxygen https://www.facebook.com/LP.Oxygen Instagram: LP.Oxygen Twitter: @Soul025 Buzzsprout: Soul02-Buzzsprout Spotify: Soul02 - Spotify Apple: Soul02-Itunes Stitcher: Soul02-Stitcher

In this weeks episode, I'm reflecting on what it means to truly rest in the steadfast love of God.So many of us are walking through seasons that feel uncertain, painful, and stretching. Maybe you've been trying to stay faithful, but if you're honest, you're tired. Tired of waiting. Tired of praying. Tired of not understanding what God is doing. In this conversation, I wanted to slow down and anchor us in the truth that God's love is not shaky, conditional, or fleeting. It is steadfast and secure.This episode is for anyone who feels weary, confused, pruned, or stretched thin in this season.My prayer is that it reminds you that God has not forgotten you, He has not changed His mind about you, and He is still faithful in the middle of whatever you're carrying.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Are there any “Heaven or Hell” rules Christians must follow in order to be saved? If so, what are they and how should we understand them?In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard responds to this frequently-asked question which often arises in discussions about holiness, not only among Oneness Pentecostals, but across conservative Christian communities.Dr. Bernard provides biblical insight into:The difference between living by faith and falling into legalismThe vital connection between faith and obedienceHow to approach holiness without reducing it to a checklistWhat this question reveals about how we view our relationship with GodIf you've ever wrestled with what God truly requires of believers, this episode offers clarity, balance, and a deeper understanding of Scripture.Apostolic Life in the 21st Century is a podcast dedicated to answering questions about the Bible, Christian living, and current issues from a biblical perspective.Visit PentecostalPublishing.com to shop Dr. Bernard's full catalog of published works.

In this message from Ephesians 5:1–21, Pastor Jim calls believers to live in light of their identity in Christ. Rather than a “holier than thou” mindset, this passage is a call to holiness rooted in being dearly loved children of God. Because believers are now light in the Lord, they are invited to live as children of light for the glory of God and the good of the world.The message centers on three movements: who we are, how we walk, and what it produces. Christians are no longer in darkness but have been made new, with minds awakened to truth and identity grounded in God's love. From that identity flows a new way of living, marked by sacrificial love, purity, gratitude, and being led by the Spirit rather than by flesh or cultural patterns.Pastor Jim emphasizes that holiness is not restrictive but life-giving. As believers live differently, through their actions, words, and relationships, they become a light that exposes darkness and points others toward God. This is not behavior modification but grace-driven obedience that reflects new creation life at work.

This week, I share about the recent unexpected loss of one of my longest and dearest friends, and the ways this particular grief has reshaped my perspective.I talk about the tension of suffering and faith, how trials expose why we truly follow Christ, and why grief for the believer is never without hope.

Can We Really Do Greater Works than Jesus?Apostolic Life in the 21st Century with Dr. David K. BernardIn John 14:12, Jesus made a remarkable promise: “He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do.” But what did He mean?Jesus healed the sick, raised the dead, and demonstrated power over nature itself. How could believers possibly do “greater” works than these?In this episode, Dr. David K. Bernard provides clear, biblical insight into this passage. Rather than pointing to greater individual miracles, he explains how Jesus' words reveal the expanded scope of His work through the church—empowered by the Holy Spirit and fulfilled through the global spread of the gospel after Pentecost.Discover how this promise applies to believers today and what it reveals about the ongoing mission of the church.Visit PentecostalPublishing.com to shop Dr. Bernard's full catalog of published works.

Hey fam, we are back this week with a conversation that I think so many parents need.A major part of my life is being a mom, and in this episode I wanted to slow down and talk about what it really means to raise children in a home where God is not just a topic we bring up when life goes wrong, but the theme of the home itself.So often, parenting can become focused on behavior, structure, and getting through the day. But as believers, we are called to more than just raising well-behaved kids. We are called to make disciples in our homes. In this episode, I talk about what it looks like to build a daily cadence of discipleship with your children through prayer, scripture, devotionals, honest conversations, and simply making the Lord part of everyday life.This episode is for the parent who feels the weight of responsibility, the mom who wants to lead her children well, the dad who wants to build a Christ-centered home, and anyone wondering how to take simple but faithful steps toward discipling the children God has entrusted to them.I pray this episode reminds you that you do not have to be a perfect parent to be a faithful one.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey guys! We are back this week with a conversation about something so many believers wrestle with: can you really follow Jesus without being deeply connected to His people?In this episode, we talk about why Christianity was never meant to be lived alone. In a culture that celebrates independence, self-protection, and doing faith on your own terms, it can be easy to believe that prayer, worship, and Bible reading are enough without real accountability, correction, or fellowship. But when we look at scripture, we see that God has always called His people to live in community.We unpack what it means to be part of the body of Christ, why isolation can quietly stunt spiritual growth, and how healthy biblical community helps shape us, strengthen us, and keep us rooted in truth. We also talk honestly about church hurt, disappointment, fear of vulnerability, and why past pain can make it difficult to trust people again, especially within the church.This episode is for anyone who has been trying to walk with God on their own. My prayer is that this conversation reminds you that while finding community can be tough, it's also one of God's gifts for our growth, healing, and endurance, and I pray this episode encourages you not to give up on what God has designed for your good.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, I'm back with the team to talk about the importance of pausing to pray and seek God's direction as Christians, before we publicly respond to things online, or create content for public consumption that dishonors others.We're living in a time where everyone feels pressure to react quickly, share every opinion, and defend every point of view. But as believers, we are not called to move at the speed of society. We are called to move in step with the Spirit. And sometimes that means being quiet long enough to pray, examine our hearts, and ask whether what we're about to say is actually producing the kind of unity Jesus prayed for.If you've felt grieved by the division online within the Christian body, or even if you've been trusted with your own platform and wondered, “Do I need to respond to everything?” or “How do I stand firm without sowing division?” I pray this episode reminds you—not every moment needs your reaction, but every moment does require a thoughtful response in love.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, I'm reflecting with the team on my experience witnessing Jackie and Jordan practice obedience during the Blameless concert weekend that took place in February. We're talking about what it means to fix our gaze on Jesus when fear, doubt, and uncertainty can cause a hesitation to obey. In Matthew 14, we see Peter walk on water only while his eyes are fixed on Jesus, but the moment he focuses on the wind and the waves, he begins to sink. And honestly, it's the same way for so many of us when it comes to trusting God. But Jesus is so kind. When Peter began to sink, he called out to Jesus, and Jesus reached for him. And He does the same for us.Join the conversation as we explore what it looks like to trust God in the midst of fear. We discuss the tension of wanting to believe the Lord is faithful while battling uncertainty, and how faith is often not the absence of fear, but the practice of fixing our gaze on God in everything we do, until we see our complete assignment through to the end.This episode is for anyone who feels like they've been sinking under the weight of anxiety, doubt, or fear and it's keeping you from saying Yes to the Lord. I pray this reminds you that He is not distant in our struggle. He is near, steady, and faithful.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
