Joel and Tim explore Soul Revival Church's 2025 Planning Day — and how the church can prepare for God to grow them, being ready if He chooses to do that.They begin by talking about writing, storytelling, and collective memory — how churches pass down faith through shared stories that shape who they are. Tim reflects on his recent work about how intergenerational communities strengthen faith by remembering together.The conversation then turns to independent media and creativity, drawing lessons from writers like Ryan Holiday and Jonathan Wilson. Joel and Tim reflect on how Christians can balance curiosity with focus — doing a few things well, recognising that God made people finite so they can't chase every idea.At the heart of the episode is Soul Revival's collaborative Planning Day, where the whole church community — not just leaders — comes together to reflect, celebrate, and plan for the year ahead. It's a unique approach that embodies their belief in the church as a family, where every generation contributes.Finally, they look forward to the 2025 Planning Day and the church's 2030 Double Up Vision, discussing what it means to grow deeply in discipleship and mission, not just in numbers. The episode closes with a reminder to keep telling the stories of God's faithfulness — because those stories shape who the church is and who it will become.

In this episode, we launch the In Christ series with a message from 1 Peter 2:9–10 titled Remade in Christ. Together we wrestle with life's most essential questions: Who are you? Why are you here? Where are you going? Scripture reminds us that in Christ we find our true identity and mission. We don't belong to our affiliations or accomplishments, but to God Himself—chosen, redeemed, and sent to proclaim His glory. Join us as we rediscover who we are, why we exist, and what God has done for us through the gospel.

Join us as we gather live for our Sunday Service. Today Brother Crispin shares his testimony of where he comes from and his personal family dynamics growing up. He transitions from a perspective of an earthly family relationship, to what the bible states the church family SHOULD look like and where the churches identity resides. We look forward to gathering with you virtually and hearing your thoughts and prayers during our live chat. We believe in Loving Jesus, Loving People, and seeing Jesus transform lives.

Just as the Apostle Paul stood firm in Ephesus against idol worship and cultural pressure, we too must rise up and reclaim our identity. We are the church!

Dear Church | Identity of Ministers by Providence Community Church

This morning we continued in our current series, Christian Living In The Current of Culture, an exposition of 1 Corinthians. This sermon titled “Church Unity Through Church Identity” is from from 1 Corinthians 3:10-23 and was preached by a frequent guest preacher at Trinity Church, Pastor Cody Cannon who is the Lead Pastor of Life Pointe Church in Woodland, CA.In this text the apostle Paul reminds the local church who they are and encourages them that they will find unity when they realize their identity in Christ. This unity is worth fighting for because it honors God and glorifies Jesus and it is God's will for the church.

Embark on an engaging journey with Matthew Schultz as we tackle the dynamic nature of church life, from the fresh energy of church planting to the revitalization of long-established congregations. Listen closely as we unlock the secrets to creating vibrant faith communities that balance innovation with the timeless message of Jesus' love. We'll reveal how churches are redefining worship spaces to resonate with contemporary audiences, ensuring that the essence of the gospel remains at the forefront of these transformative experiences.Join us for an enlightening conversation that delves into the heartbeat of the church's mission, seen through the lens of Lutheran theology. We dissect the intricate dance between justification and sanctification, considering Martin Luther's vision for a church that doesn't hide from the world but rather reaches out with the good news. Matthew and I probe into the notion of 'remnant theology' and venture into a compelling debate on how true confession is inherently missional.The episode doesn't just stop at theory; it also paints a picture of what growth looks like for churches both flourishing and facing adversity. We explore practices like asset-based community development and how storytelling can empower congregations to become beacons of innovation and learning—transforming them into 'little seminaries'. Whether you're a church leader or simply intrigued by the potential of faith communities, this episode offers a unique perspective on the church's identity and mission.Sirva SoundbitesExplores the latest trends and topics on global talent mobility and the future of work.Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify All Business.

As we grow together in grace this year, we are committed to being the body of Christ. Good news! Our Lord Jesus is the head of the body, the church. Great news! He includes us in his body. Like the church at Antioch, the Lord has placed his hand on this church.  Let's grow. How? In grace. This message is based on Acts 11:19-26.Quotes:Duane Brooks: We are being formed – either by the world, or by the living Word who is Christ.James Boice: This is the first example in human history of people in a different part of the world taking up an offering to help people in another part of the world.  Why would Gentiles in Antioch give to people in Judea?  They had not one cultural thing in common – except Jesus. John Ortberg: Am I growing more loving toward God and toward people?William Wilberforce:  Instead we should allow the name of Jesus to be engraved deeply on the heart, written there by the finger of God himself in everlasting characters. It is our sure and undoubted title to present peace and future glory.C. S. Lewis: In the same way the Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no other purpose.Philip Yancey:  When I walk into a new church, the more its members resemble each other—and resemble me—the more uncomfortable I feel.Emil Bruner: The church exists by mission as a fire exists by burning.Duane Brooks: We have it written on our wall . . . but unless it is written on our lives it will not help us.Bonhoeffer:  Your life as a Christian should make non-believers question their disbelief in God. Horace Greeley received a letter from a woman seeking his advice concerning her church.  She wrote:  “Our church is in dire financial straits.  We have tried everything to keep it going:  a strawberry festival, an oyster supper, a donkey party, a turkey dinner, and finally a box social.  Will you please tell us, Mr. Greely, how to keep a struggling church from disbanding?”  Greeley answered her in a message of two words:  “Try Christianity.”Russ Blowers:  I'm with a global enterprise.  We have branches in every country in the world.  We have our representatives in nearly every parliament and board room on earth.  We're into motivation and behavior alteration.  “We run hospitals, feeding stations, crisis pregnancy centers, universities, publishing houses, and nursing homes.  We care for our clients from birth to death.  We are into life insurance and fire insurance.  We perform spiritual heart transplants.  Our original Organizer owns all the real estate on earth plus an assortment of galaxies and constellations.  He knows everything and lives everywhere.  Our product is free for the asking.  (There's not enough money to buy it.)  Our CEO was born in a hick town, worked as a carpenter, didn't own a home, was misunderstood by his family, hated by enemies, walked on water, was condemned to death without a trial, and arose from the dead – I talk with him everyday.To discover more messages of hope go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on Instagram, X, and YouTube @tallowoodbc.Follow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist
