In this heartfelt and insightful sermon from Pastor Karl, we explore the biblical concept of the church as a family, drawing from 1 Timothy Chapter 5. Pastor Karl emphasizes that the church thrives on relationships, not rules, and celebrates the community's role in honoring milestones like graduations and new births. He highlights the importance of mentorship, showcasing how older generations mentor the younger ones in faith and character. Delving into 1 Timothy, Pastor Karl unpacks Paul's guidance to Timothy, a young leader in the challenging city of Ephesus, on how to lead the church family with honor and wisdom. Key themes include guarding the gospel, maintaining order, prioritizing character in leadership, and training diligently in faith. Pastor Karl addresses practical church responsibilities, such as caring for "true widows" with compassion and criteria, ensuring family members take primary responsibility for their kin. He also tackles the sensitive topic of honoring church leaders, advocating for fair compensation that balances care and accountability. Finally, Pastor Karl connects the concept of servitude to modern employer-employee relationships, urging Christians to work diligently for both earthly and heavenly masters, not out of duty, but out of love for Christ, who calls us friends.

In this sermon, Pastor Karl dives into First Timothy Chapter 3, exploring the roles and qualifications of church leaders as outlined by the Apostle Paul. He emphasizes that titles like elder and deacon are not about elevating status but activating service within the church. Pastor Karl unpacks the historical context of the synagogue system to clarify Paul's intent, highlighting that elders (overseers, pastors, or shepherds) and deacons (servants) are defined by their character and commitment to God's calling, not by hierarchy or prestige. With only one of the 16 qualifications for leadership tied to ability, the focus remains on living a life of faith, integrity, and service. Pastor Karl challenges the congregation to step into their God-given roles, stressing that ministry begins where ego ends and that every Christ follower is called to serve and lead in the church. Through Paul's spontaneous praise, Pastor Karl reminds us of the greatness of Jesus, who is alive and worthy of our active response to His call. Join us for an inspiring message about living out God's purpose with humility and purpose.Watch all our sermons on our YouTube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Sanctification and Christian service cannot be separated. God sanctifies us through His Son, through His Word, and through His Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ appeared on Calvary for our justification, He is now in heaven praying for our sanctification, and He will appear in the clouds for our glorification. As we are sanctified, we will develop the mind of Christ, we will become more like our Saviour, and we will faithfully give the Good News of Jesus Christ to others!

In this powerful episode, Pastor Karl unpacks Romans 15 and 16, diving into the transformative "dynamite" power of the Gospel that saves, sanctifies, and stabilizes believers. He explores Paul's call to selflessness, urging the church to live for others as Christ did, and emphasizes the unshakable hope granted by the Holy Spirit. Celebrating the diverse, tireless servants listed in Romans 16—like Phoebe and Priscilla—Pastor Karl challenges listeners to reject passivity and serve without seeking titles. With passion and urgency, he inspires the congregation to embrace God's inclusive plan and turn the world upside down for the Gospel.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Living as a saint means actively participating in God's kingdom work through sincere love and humble service. This involves loving without conditions, taking emotional risks, and being willing to have difficult conversations when necessary. True Christian love holds others accountable while considering them more important than ourselves, demonstrating genuine care without expecting anything in return.This lifestyle requires avoiding spiritual laziness while maintaining fervor in serving God. Christians are called to share with those in need, pursue hospitality, and live in harmony through humility. When faced with persecution, the response should be blessing rather than revenge, maintaining peace whenever possible, and focusing on eternal matters. This includes practical actions like helping enemies and viewing the world through Scripture's perspective rather than conforming to worldly patterns.Support the show

Being a saint means actively participating in God's kingdom work, not just attending church services. Every believer has unique gifts and access to people that pastors may never reach. Christians must view the world through Biblical truth, challenge their perspectives, and use their spiritual gifts within the church community. The local church is essential for spiritual growth, mutual support, and the exercise of these gifts. True Christian living involves finding joy in whatever role God has assigned, whether teaching, serving, or showing hospitality.Support the show

In this powerful message, Pastor Karl dives into Romans chapter 11, exploring God's cosmic plan to save anyone who desires salvation. He unpacks the heartbeat of Romans: God's unstoppable mission to redeem sinners by grace through faith and our response of worship and service. Focusing on the Greek word "sozo" (salvation), Pastor Karl traces God's saving work through Israel's past, present, and future, showing how His promises to Israel shape His promises to us as Gentiles. He emphasizes that God uses us to make His chosen people jealous, drawing them back to Him, while warning against pride and anti-Semitism in today's world. With passion and clarity, Pastor Karl calls us to humility, readiness to share our hope, and active participation in God's global plan through church planting and proclaiming the Word.

Could this be a key to revival right inside your home? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Rayann a woman who took a radical leap of faith and uprooted her family to serve on a Mercy Ship—a floating hospital that travels to provide free surgeries to those in desperate need around the world. She shares how God called them way outside their comfort zones, selling their home in California, and into a life of service that didn't just change the lives of the people they helped but transformed their own family in ways she and her husband never expected. Here's what we dive into: How her family's “yes” to God led them to the open seas, answering His call to living on a floating hospital/city... and how Covid hitting ten months in affected them. The real-life challenges (and blessings) of relocating your family to serve full-time in ministry on a ship. How stepping into the mission field as a family can be the spark that ignites personal and spiritual revival. First-hand stories of incredible healings and the heart-changing work happening on Mercy Ships. How saying “yes” to God's plan—whether it's big or small—can be the spark that "flips the switch" on your children discovering what God has called THEM to do. If you've ever wondered how your family could step into something bigger or longed to see revival in your own home, this episode will encourage you to listen for God's leading and take bold steps of faith. Tune in to hear tear-evoking stories of faith, service, and healing, and get ready to be inspired to serve where God's calling you... maybe you could find yourself on a Mercy Ship for a period too!

1 Peter 4:10-11 - Speaker: Josh MacAvoy -

This is message 19 in the 2 Corinthians series 2 Corinthians 12:1-13 Paul addresses his critics by emphasizing his own weakness and dependence on Christ. Although he had extraordinary spiritual experiences, including a vision of heaven, Paul refuses to boast about them. Instead, he highlights the "thorn in the flesh" given to him to keep him humble, reminding the Corinthians that God's grace is sufficient and His strength is made perfect in weakness. Paul concludes by pointing out that his ministry has been validated by signs and wonders, yet his focus remains on serving the Lord and keeping the attention on Christ, not himself.

This is message 16 in the Labour In The Church series 2 Timothy 2:20-26 Paul uses the metaphor of a great house to describe the local church, where there are both honorable (gold and silver) and dishonorable (wood and earth) vessels. The honorable vessels represent believers set apart for God's use, while dishonorable vessels represent those operating in their own strength or false believers. Paul urges believers to be vessels of honor by separating from false teaching, preparing for God's work, fleeing youthful lusts, following righteousness, avoiding foolish disputes, dealing gently with others, and focusing on soul-winning.

Paul sarcastically addresses their preference for “super-spiritual” leaders and reminds them that, though he did not accept money from them, his ministry was driven by love. He further exposes the motives of the false teachers, showing how they exploited the church for financial gain and led them away from the truth in Christ.

This Catechetical Sunday weekend, we reflect on the importance of Christian Service in the life of a missionary disciple. In reading from the Letter of St. James, we are challenged to "demonstrate [our] faith... from [our] works." This same challenge is given to us again by the Lord in the Gospel as He summoned the disciples and said to them, "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." What are some types of service we can challenge ourselves to take up this week? In sports, It's All About the U as Cam Ward continues to make an early case for the Heisman.

Dave Rich examines Peter's metaphor of the church as living stones in 1 Peter 2:5. This imagery portrays believers as components of a spiritual house, functioning as a holy priesthood. Rich explains how the church, as living stones, offers acceptable sacrifices to God through Jesus Christ. He outlines seven types of spiritual sacrifices: self-dedication, love, giving, praise, service, gospel proclamation, and prayer. The metaphor represents God's presence on earth and the church's role in fulfilling His purpose. By depicting the church as living stones, Peter emphasizes the active participation of believers in God's plan through sanctification and service. ★ Support this podcast ★

He highlights the importance of abiding in Christ, as we are powerless without Him.

Despite severe trials, including persecution and illness, Paul recieved uplifting news from Titus about the Corinthian church's positive respitive response to his first letter. This led him to write 2 Corinthians, defending his ministry. He emphasizes that God, the Father of Mercies, provides abundant comfort through Jesus Christ, enabling believers to share this comfort with others. Paul's sufferings have allowed him to offer solace and salvation to many, demonstrating how sharing in Christ's suffering deepens one's capacity to share His comfort.

Separation to God is the first requirement for Christian service. As we allow Christ to be enlarged in our lives. He will crowd out everything else. When Ezra arrived in Jerusalem, he discovered that the Lord wanted to do this separating work among His people.

Before Ezra and the remnant returned to Jerusalem, they faced a choice: to depend on the king's army or to depend on God to protect them. They chose to depend upon the Lord, and God did not fail them. He provided all their need. He was glorified in their weakness. He empowered their testimony, and He gave them courage.

We are the church of the living God! To advance with the Lord, we must fill our lives with the Word of God. God is looking for men and women with grateful hearts who are rejoicing in His mercy, finding strength in the Lord Jesus, and appreciating other believers serving around them. When the Lord finds workers like that, He will use them to build His church.

In his sermon, Jim Osman explains how believers are called to worship God in both word and deed, as outlined in Hebrews 13:15-16. He highlights that true worship involves praising God and doing good to others. This dual approach to worshiping God is essential for living a life that pleases Him. ★ Support this podcast ★
