Send us a text In this episode of the Village Church's sermon podcast, Pastoral Intern Daniel McConnell brings the Micah 6:8 series to a close. He takes up the final phrase—"walk humbly with your God"—and lingers over each word, unpacking their depth in Hebrew. What does it mean to walk? What does it mean to walk with God? And what does true humility look like in that journey? Through careful study and reflection, Daniel opens up the richness of God's invitation, helping the Village see how this ancient call shapes our lives today. Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.
