Podcasts about childlike faith

 Matthew 21 opens with Jesus's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem—his coronation as King. Pastor Karl unpacks why this moment was unlike any earthly coronation: a king who arrived not on a warhorse but on a humble donkey, fulfilling prophecies spoken generations earlier through Isaiah, Zechariah, and Daniel. As King, Jesus fulfills God's mission, exercises God's authority, restores proper worship according to God's Word, and extends God's compassion. From the crowds shouting "Hosanna" to Jesus clearing the temple of corruption, this passage reveals a King who demands total allegiance while never withholding compassion from those who come to Him in need.

This week, Ollie helps us see how simple living with a childlike faith can be

In Episode 209, we explore Luke 10:21-24 and a moment of pure, Spirit-filled joy that causes Jesus to break into spontaneous prayer. The seventy-two disciples have just returned from their mission. The Kingdom is advancing. And Jesus, filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit—not urgency, not burden, but joy—turns to His Father in prayer. He prays: "O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike." Through guided meditation, discover what this prayer reveals about how God works. Not through the impressive. Not through the powerful. Not through those who already have all the answers. But through the humble—through those who come like children, without pretense, without agenda, without the need to already know. This is the posture that opens us to revelation. Then Jesus turns to His disciples privately and says something extraordinary: "Blessed are the eyes that see what you have seen. I tell you, many prophets and kings longed to see what you see, but they didn't see it. And they longed to hear what you hear, but they didn't hear it." Think about who Jesus is talking about. Abraham. Moses. David. Isaiah. Jeremiah. The greatest figures in all of Israel's history. They longed for what the disciples have. They caught glimpses. They saw shadows. They received promises. But they didn't see the fulfillment. And now the disciples are standing in the middle of it—walking with the Messiah, witnessing the Kingdom advancing, experiencing the full revelation of who God is in Jesus. This episode explores what this means for you. You live on the resurrection side of history. You have what kings and prophets longed for. You have the cross—the full payment for sin. You have the empty tomb—the conquest of death. You have the Holy Spirit living inside you—the very presence of God. You have the complete Word of God. You have access to the Father through Jesus. Abraham didn't have this. David didn't have this. Isaiah didn't have this. But you do. Learn why wonder is the natural response to revelation and how familiarity can quietly steal the awe that should mark every day of your life. Discover how to reclaim that wonder through deliberate gratitude—naming the specific things you can see, know, and experience because Jesus chose to reveal the Father to you. Find the joy that filled Jesus—the joy of knowing God and being known by God—and let it become the foundation of your day.

When was the last time you approached God with pure, childlike trust?In today's episode, we'll explore the heart of Matthew 19:14 and uncover what it truly means to come to God with childlike faith. The conversation focused on how life's disappointments, delays, and pressures can make us guarded or self-reliant, often overshadowing the simplicity and openness God desires from us. Together, we'll reflect on how faith can remain soft, trusting, and dependent, even as we mature, and why true spiritual maturity should deepen our sense of wonder and reliance on Him.Join our community in prayer and devotion as we embrace childlike faith and invite God to soften our hearts today.Tap HERE to send us a text!

Jesus was asked who the greatest person in the kingdom of heaven would be. He did not point to the one who walked on water. He pointed to a child. What if everything you have been taught about greatness is backwards? The quickest way up in the kingdom of God is to go down. Your calling is too holy to be fueled by your ego.

Guest Speaker: Mark Slomka Childlike Faith | How to Protect Your Identity in an Identity Theft World Mark Slomka

Who's the greatest? It's a question we ask about quarterbacks, pitchers, and point guards—but Jesus' disciples asked it about the Kingdom of Heaven, and His answer flipped their entire framework upside down.In this message from Matthew 18:1-6, guest speaker Jeff Stemple unpacks what happens when the disciples' quiet argument about status and rank finally bursts into the open, and Jesus responds not with a ranking, but with a child standing in the middle of the room. Jeff explores how greatness in God's Kingdom isn't measured by achievement, platform, or comparison, but through humble, childlike dependence on God.Along the way, Jeff digs into what it means to humble yourself before you're humbled, how what we value reveals what we actually believe, and why welcoming and protecting children reflects the very heart of Jesus. Whether you're wrestling with insecurity, control, or the constant pull to measure up, this message points to a different scoreboard altogether—one built on trust, not status.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Guest Speaker: Nate Gushwa Childlike | Faith That Keeps On Dreaming Nate Gushwa

Discover what true greatness really means in this transformative study of Matthew 18:1-4. When the disciples ask Jesus who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven, He doesn't answer with a name—He calls a child forward. This episode explores how Jesus completely redefines greatness, measuring it not by power, achievement, or recognition, but by humility, awe, and childlike wonder. Learn why the world's definition of success is backwards and how to reclaim the openness, trust, and sense of wonder you may have lost. Through contemplative meditation and practical reflection, discover what it means to be childlike—not childish—and how approaching God and life with the awe of a child is the pathway to true greatness in God's kingdom. This episode will revolutionize how you measure success and what you pursue.

Erin doesn't have all the answers. She's not a deep diver, not an academic, not someone who can study her way through the hard questions. What she has instead is a childlike trust in a God who she knows is real, who she knows is there, and who she knows has it — even when she doesn't understand.Part 2 of Erin's Chip Lunch conversation picks up where Part 1 left off. After years of drifting in and out of church, Erin and her husband Chris found their way to Soul Revival: first to Kirrawee with her brother Pete, then to the small and eclectic Cronulla gathering. They stayed because Chris said something that stuck: maybe God put them there because the church needed them as much as they needed the church.Erin talks about what it's actually like to commit to a small church — the challenges, the deep relationships it creates, and the unexpected gift of raising two boys in a community where the adults treat them like real people in an intergenerational community. She talks about her brother Pete's longtime friendship with Matt Redmond, an old 1860s church building her family spent years restoring in the country, a husband who grounds her, and a dog named after Frank Sinatra.And when we ask what she'd tell her younger Christian self: just trust. Be open with God. You don't have to have all the answers. It's not a cop out, that's faith.

Childlike Faith | About Faith | Week 4 | Jared Callahan

Secure In His Love

Two men walk into the temple to pray, and Jesus says the one everyone despises goes home justified. That single twist from Luke 18 forces an uncomfortable audit of our own spiritual instincts: do we come to God listing our virtues, or do we come like the tax collector with nothing but honesty and a plea for mercy?We start with Jesus' call to persistent prayer, the widow who refuses to stop asking, and the question that lands like a warning shot: when the Son of Man returns, will He find faith? From there we slow down over the words, “O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner,” and talk about humility, repentance, and how easy it is to look fine on the outside while things decay behind closed doors.That connects directly to 1 Corinthians 7 and a practical conversation about Christian marriage, sexual self-control, and why Scripture treats intimacy and temptation as serious discipleship issues for husbands and wives. We also read Psalm 85 and Proverbs 13 as prayers for revival and truth, remember Medal of Honor sacrifice as a rebuke to cheap cynicism, and revisit a Second Continental Congress prayer that reveals how badly the founders wanted peace, virtue, and religious liberty under God.If you care about biblical prayer, humility, Christian marriage, faith and patriotism, and the spiritual roots of America, listen through to the end, then subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.#ChristianNation#BacktoGod#AmericanPatriotSupport the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribeCountryside Book Serieshttps://www.amazon.com/Countryside-Book-J-T-Cope-IV-ebook/dp/B00MPIXOB2

"Wayfinding is the cognitive and corporeal process and experience of locating, following, or discovering a route through and to a given space. It involves both thinking and physically moving through space. It isn't about signs, it's about HOW people navigate from Point A to Point B. It involves: orientation, route decision, route monitoring, and designation recognition" (travelwayfinding.com).On today's show, Spiritual Director, Deborah Gregory, author of "Spiritual Wayfinding: 33 Walking Meditations for Navigating Life with Embodied Wisdom," shares how a fractured ankle taught her to walk, both physically and spiritually, with God in fresh, new ways.

Do you want the real Jesus—or just a comfortable version of Him? In this sermon, Pastor Doug explores how the authentic Jesus consistently calls people to truth, even when it disrupts comfort, challenges assumptions, and confronts sin.The real Christ doesn't bend to culture or personal preference. He speaks truth with authority, calls for repentance, and offers transformation that goes far deeper than surface-level belief. This message invites you to move beyond a convenient faith and encounter the Jesus who changes everything.Support the mission of the Salty Pastor ministry!
