Childlike Faith | VBS Celebration 2026 In Mark 10:13-16, Jesus welcomes children and teaches that the kingdom of God belongs to those who come to Him with childlike faith. This sermon explores what it means to trust God completely, depend on Him daily, and approach Him with humility and eagerness. Through practical examples and biblical truth, this message challenges us to set aside self-sufficiency and embrace a deeper trust in Jesus. Key Insights: Discover the difference between childish faith and childlike faith. Learn how radical trust and total dependence shape a growing relationship with Jesus. Understand what Jesus meant when He said to receive the kingdom of God like a child. Identify areas where self-sufficiency may be keeping you from deeper faith.

How do I have childlike faith? In this message from Pastor David Lindell, we are reminded that childlike faith rejects doubt, recognizes dependence on God, and asks boldly because our Father is good. Our prayer is that your faith would be renewed with simple trust, humble dependence, and bold confidence in God's goodness.

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
In this Part 1 "how-to" episode, we will look at some secrets to growing your faith. How can God become personal and real to you? And what happens in your life when He does? Jesus gives us a metaphor to help you understand what really satisfies your soul's basic needs. Dr. Patty shares three spiritual practices that effectively build on each other in this episode and will share two more in the Part 2 episode. Dr. Patty facilitates a more detailed special place encounter so those who already have a special place can see more and those who have not established one can learn from Jesus why He wants to meet them there in the Experience Jesus encounter time.

"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. She's named each of her 33 walks and invites us to experience the childlike wonder of silly walks, the freedom of yuck walks, the power of Poohstick walks, and so much more!Grab your tennis shoes and walk into a whole new way of finding God's love in your world.Links and Resources from this episodeVisit Deborah's website: Flourish Spiritual DirectionOrder Deb's new book: Spiritual WayfindingRevisit the podcast archives: E244 Jake Eagle, "How A.W.E.

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!

In a world filled with noise, deadlines, and complexity, Jesus calls us back to simplicity. Join Pastor Landon Churchill as we open to Luke 18:15-17 to uncover the profound necessity of "Childlike Faith." In this message, we explore two vital truths: the personal call to trust God with the open-handed dependence of a child, and the corporate call for the church to prioritize the next generation. Whether you are feeling spiritually exhausted and need to relearn how to "receive" rather than "achieve," or you are looking for a vision for discipleship, this message is for you.

A four-year-old's question—“Why does Santa look different?”—opens a bigger one: why does Jesus look different in every painting, and how do we recognize Him today? Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks explore how sacred art (especially icons) shows inner, spiritual reality more than photo-realism—and how Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist even when our eyes see only bread. As Christmas Masses fill with newcomers, we talk about hospitality, cooperation with grace, and moving from the visible to the invisible: from faces and symbols to the Person who loves us. Always through the three lenses: honesty with self, charity with others, under a living relationship with God.Key IdeasDifferent “looks,” same identity: saints (and St. Nicholas) are shown with signs of their vocation; Jesus is recognized by what's essential—wounds, mercy, and divinity—not a fixed facial template.Icons aim beyond photography: light “from within” depicts the glorified person; art can reveal deeper truth than surface detail.Real Presence, hidden form: in the Eucharist our senses see bread; faith meets the living Christ—Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.Childlike faith teaches adults: wonder and simple trust help us notice God's voice in conscience and daily life.Christmas hospitality: welcome irregular Mass-goers with warmth and witness; our charity can draw people back to the Church.Links & ReferencesNational Shrine of Our Lady of Champion (approved Marian apparition to Adele Brise, Champion, WI): https://championshrine.orgCTAIf this helped, please leave a review or share this episode with a friend.Questions or thoughts?

My friend is a preterist. What is that? Should I be worried? Your nation came close to civil war this past year, right? What is a healthy view of Mary, the mother of Jesus? Why does John 8:31 say "continue" if we can't lose our salvation? How can I have childlike faith?
