May 12, 2024 Part two of our series, "Micah: Who Is A God Like You."

Called By Name (Easter 2024): There's something so powerful about being called by name. When Jesus Christ rose from the dead, the first eyewitness was his friend, Mary Magdalene. But Mary didn't recognize Jesus until he called her name. "Mary." When God calls us by name, his calling changes everything. Recorded on March 31, 2024, on John 20:1-23 by Pastor David Parks. Finding Life in Jesus' Name is a sermon series on the gospel according to John in the Bible. Have you ever felt unsatisfied with your life? Or, even when things were going well, something was still missing? Many people sense there must be something more. But what?? John, one of the closest friends of Jesus, believed that Jesus came into the world so that we may have life and have it to the full. Jesus turned John's life upside down, and John claims this new life — marked by God's power, presence, and purpose — is available for all who believe. Sermon Transcript All year, we're working through The Gospel According to John in a series called Finding Life in Jesus' Name. Today, we'll consider the meaning of the empty tomb from John chapter 20. Now, one of the features of the account of the resurrection in John is when Jesus calls Mary Magdalene by name. “Mary.” There's something so powerful about being called by name. If you've ever had someone use your middle name when calling you by name, that probably wasn't a good thing. You were probably in trouble. I still get a “David Elliott” from Holly every so often. Years ago, at the first pastor's conference I attended before Appleton Gospel started, I went to dinner with some of the national leaders of the EFCA, the denomination we're part of. There were maybe 50-60 people there, and I didn't think anyone knew who I was. But then, the president of the EFCA announced that before dinner, David Parks was going to come up and pray in Korean. I froze. I hadn't met the president, and I didn't know how he knew my name, much less how he expected me to pray in Korean. But thankfully, before I did anything, a Korean man named David Park, who was a pastor in California, went to the front and led us in a beautiful Korean prayer. After dinner, I introduced myself and shared my moment of panic, and we laughed about it together. But other than that, normally, being called by name means someone knows you, someone sees you, and possibly someone loves you. But is that what you picture when you think about God? As someone who knows you, sees you, and loves you? As someone who calls you by name? Or does God feel far off and removed from your life? I've had seasons like that. Do you feel like you've been struggling through life without much help? Or that you've been trying hard to be a good person and aren't sure what God thinks about you? Well, this message is for you. If you have a Bible/app, please take it and open it to John 20. We'll read through this and unpack it as we go. John 20:1–10 (NIV), “1 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. 2 So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they have put him!” 3 So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. 4 Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5 He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. 6 Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus' head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. 8 Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside. He saw and believed. 9 (They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.) 10 Then the disciples went back to where they we...

Dr. David S. Parks began serving as Associate Executive Director for the South Carolina Baptist Convention in 2009. For this message, Dr. Parks, shares the importance of sharing the Good News of the Gospel in the world in which God has placed us.

March 29 is now the official National Vietnam War Veterans Day, set aside to “observe with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities” the commemoration of the war. More important than commemorating a war is to commemorate the service, in some cases the ultimate service, that soldiers gave their nation. For our part, we commemorate with what we know—photography—and on today’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast, we talk about photography created by U.S. servicemen during their time in Vietnam. We begin with David Parks who, in 1968, published a book about his experience in Vietnam, titled GI Diary. The book includes excerpts of the diary he kept and personal photos he took while in the army. Mr. Parks, who is the son of famed photographer Gordon Parks, dropped out of college knowing that he was likely to be drafted. He saw front-line combat and documented his experiences, in text and image, from the viewpoint of an African-American “grunt.” We speak with Mr. Parks about his ability to photograph in such a challenging situation, about the gear he used, how he processed film, if he considered his work photojournalism, and how his diaries came to be one of the first books ever published about the Vietnam War. On the second half of our program, we welcome Kendra Rennick, of The Vietnam Slide Project. When a friend employed her help to organize a collection of photos taken by her late father, a project was born. That project took on a life, and Ms. Rennick started an archive of “slides” taken only by soldiers who served in Vietnam. Many of these images reflect the more mundane aspects of army life, but are a rare glimpse into the lives and concerns of soldiers, some on their very first trip out of the States. We speak with Ms. Rennick about the organization of her project, its future, and the relationships she has developed with the veterans and families who donate their imagery.

  "Let your mind start a journey thru a strange new world. Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to be...close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar, and you'll live as you never lived before." “A Date with Destiny” is designed to help motivate, inspire and EMPOWER you to live your life in the highest context of love, peace and joy!

You look back to where you have come from and all of the things you have experienced up to this point, and you see how the pieces to your life's puzzle are coming together. The things that you thought were so important to you a year ago, or 5 or 10 years ago are no longer important or even relevant."(From the book; "Destiny Awaits: The Pouring out of Wisdom for Humanity to Drink) Our special guest for this evening is David Parks who is the son of the famous Gordon Parks.

The stereotyping of people living with mental disabilities and homeless people during the Occupy encampments could have set our mutual liberation back for decades. If it doesn't, it will be due to a radically different story from those who came to the Occupy camps to protest and meet each other face to face. The Occupy encampments have been swept from our cities and towns. We no longer have that opportunity to break bread with those who come from different backgrounds and political opinions. So…pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee and meet three of your comrades. Herbert Darren spent a month at the Occupy L.A. encampment. David Parks and Eve are heavily involved in Occupy Santa Rosa. All three live with mental disabilities. All are (or have been) homeless. They talk about how homeless and mental disability issues are important to the movement, about the conflicts within the camps, and how becoming part of this movement has affected their lives.
