8/17/25 Encountering Jesus (Week 13) Featuring Pastor Brian Flood www.fccnp.org Helping People Find and Follow Jesus!

Pastor Jim shares the story of King Josiah from 2 Kings 22 and 23, drawing out how a true encounter with the Word of God leads to repentance and reform, even when the outcome doesn't change. Jim shows how Josiah responds to God's Word not with despair over Judah's coming exile, but with deep humility and conviction, modeling what it looks like to follow God because He is worthy. The Word becomes the center of the story, not the king, and Jim challenges listeners to consider whether their lives reflect a daily posture of repentance shaped by God's truth. Pointing to Jesus as the better Josiah who reveals the fullness of God in flesh, Jim reminds us that the reward of obedience is not comfort or control, but communion with God Himself.

Join “Encountering True Adoption”, by Pastor Ryan Smith. 

  Texts:  Genesis 14:17-24; Hebrews 7   Abram Receives the Blessing of the Priest-King (Gen. 14:17-20) Melchizedek is identified as the king of Salem and the priest of the Most High God. Melchizedek blesses Abram and praises God as Creator and Deliverer Abram responds to Melchizedek by giving him a tenth of everything.   Abram Refuses the Offering of the Wicked King (Gen. 14:21-24) The king of Sodom offers Abram all the spoils of war to form an alliance. Since Abram sees God as His provider, he rejects the offering and gives it to those who were in need.   Jesus Represents the Eternal Priest-King (Hebrews 7) Melchizedek foreshadows Jesus' character, ministry, and preeminence. Jesus is the greater and eternal Priest-King who intercedes for and saves sinners to the uttermost by His once-for-all death on the cross.

Father Eric Snyder begins our new sermon series Our Heavenly Race On Earth with this sermon on Genesis 15: 1-6.

Artist Hanna Tuulikki traces the migration route of the Marsh Warbler, a bird that mimics and remixes the songs of European and Afrotropical species it meets, across the English Channel to Kent.Through vocal mimesis, or mimicry, Hanna Tuulikki offers alternative approaches to making kin with more-than-human beings. Developing their performance work with birds and bats in Scotland, recently part of an exhibition on Dartmoor, Hanna returns to southern England to raise the alarm for another endangered species - the Marsh Warbler. The artist imagines a fictional creature called the Love Warbler, part-human and part-bird, composing its song from traditional love songs collected from 27 countries along the Marsh Warbler's migratory route across Europe and Africa. Taking on the role of ‘nature's original DJ', Hanna creates a musical mashup with the bird's song structure, and live sounds from the concrete sound mirrors at Denge near Dungeness in Folkestone. The audio is then broadcast locally into a former World War I shelter that overlooks the English Channel, internationally on shortwave radio - and via the EMPIRE LINES podcast.Meeting 64 species in just over seven minutes, Hanna explains how the work takes a bird's eye view over the routes which humans and animals have long travelled. Both celebrating histories and making new relations, the artist details their collaborations, including with ornithologist Geoff Sample, and musicians from the Western Balkans. We explore how Hanna's work is both inspired by and critical of romantic depictions of natural landscapes, and national identities. The artist shares experiences from her residency at Prospect Cottage, the former home and sanctuary of artist, filmmaker, gay rights activist, and gardener Derek Jarman (1942-1994). Encountering a Qur'an, washed up on the shore of the southern coast, we discuss British media representations of the ‘migrant crisis'. Through the warbler, we explore entangled ecological and geopolitical crises, and individual stories behind transnational journeys, that often risk being lost at sea.Folkestone Triennial 2025 continues until 19 October 2025. Radio Love Warbler is broadcast locally on FM radio (87.7 MHz), internationally on shortwave radio, and via the EMPIRE LINES podcast.For more, you can read my article.Hear more from Hanna in the EMPIRE LINES episode about Avi-Alarm (2023), recorded as part of the programme for Invasion Ecology, co-curated by Jelena Sofronijevic for Radical Ecology, and Vashti Cassinelli at Southcombe Barn, an arts space and gardens on Dartmoor.

Will we follow the biblical pattern that was shown to us by Messiah (and many others) or will we invent a new way to live a victorious life? Kingdom people must be given eyes to see - 1) Messiah and 2) the Scriptures - to walk in the fullness of the new covenant. This will mark those who will endure to the end. Are your eyes open?

We continue our summer of practice with a second series of audio practices throughout August. In this episode, you are encouraged to respond to the ways trees invite you—through bloom, shade, wonder, breath—into closer relationship. From the old-growth forests whose presence precedes our lifetimes to the rooted sentinels of our own backyards, trees are humans' oldest and most constant companions. This practice calls you to bring a renewed quality of attention to the threads that bind you and trees together within a shared biosphere. Explore the online version of this practice.

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. Part 2 introduces us to a man in Acts chapter 6, named Stephen. His response to false accusations was intriguing to say the least. Then we look into Messiah's interaction with the devil after fasting for forty days. What these two spoke, in the face of adversity, is of utmost importance. How does *our* response to lies about us and temptations to abandon Yahweh's Law look, when compared with these two accounts? Let's find out! #yahweh #ancient_way #yeshua #torah #repentance

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! It's August 2nd, and we're on day 215 of our year-long journey through the Scriptures. I'm Hunter, your host, Bible reading coach, and a fellow traveler through these life-giving pages. In today's episode, we'll explore the rise and dramatic turnarounds in the reigns of Manasseh and Amon from 2 Kings 21 and 2 Chronicles 33—stories marked by heartbreaking rebellion, profound repentance, and the relentless mercy of God. Then, we'll move into the Gospel of John, where Jesus encounters the Samaritan woman at the well, offering her—and each of us—the living water that truly satisfies. As we read, we'll reflect on the deep thirst that only Christ can quench, the radical forgiveness He offers, and the invitation to worship in spirit and in truth. Join us as we open our hearts and let the Word point us to the One who knows everything about us yet loves us just the same. Whether you're feeling spiritually parched or longing for a fresh encounter, this episode is for you. Grab your Bible and let's dive in together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Thirsty this woman was. And she was willing to admit it. She wasn't too proud to admit that she was thirsty. “Yes, Teacher, give me this water.” She said she knew that she was dying of thirst—that unless something changed, she would die. After five husbands, she was dying inside. But Jesus offers her this living water. Water that truly satisfies. Jesus mercifully offers those who are dying of thirst living water. Relief from the endless cycle of sin and shame. Sin and shame. Sin and shame. Relief from our past. Forgiveness. She says, “he told me everything I've ever done.” And although these words were not written, you could complete the statement with these: And he loved me just the same. It was this radical acceptance and forgiveness from a kind and merciful Messiah that delivered her from her desperate thirst. He knows everything, and he loves us just the same. Are you thirsty? He knows. And you have a kind and merciful Savior who is making a point of pursuing your heart to give you the water that will quench your desperate thirst. So drink well of that water. Remember that your Messiah is kind and he pursues your heart, knowing everything you've ever done and loving you just the same. Live in the light and joy of him and drink well. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace, every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. The Lord's Prayer: And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever.

* This originally aired as a video episode on YouTube HERE. The latest series begins by looking to see if we've missed an incredible pattern.

7/27/25 - Encountering Jesus (Week 10) Featuring Pastor Brian Flood www.fccnp.org Helping People Find and Follow Jesus!

The privilege of gathering together as God's people is a reminder that our identity is not found in a building or a weekly event, but in the living presence of God within us. Reflecting on my recent visit to the Western Wall in Jerusalem, I was struck by the reality that, while many still pray for the coming of the Messiah, we who are in Christ know that the wall of separation has been torn down. The Holy of Holies is no longer a distant, restricted place—God's Spirit now dwells in us. This is not because of anything we have done, but because of what Jesus accomplished through His sacrifice. The presence of God is not confined to a location; it is our new identity as His people.Understanding that we are the temple of God changes everything. It means that wherever we go, we are on holy ground—not because of the place, but because the Holy God lives in us. This truth is not just theological information; it is deeply practical. It transforms our marriages, our parenting, our work, and even the way we interact with strangers. When we practice the presence of God, we begin to see ourselves not as consumers of spiritual goods, but as co-laborers and living stones, each with a role in God's mission.Our culture often views church as a place to have our needs met, but the biblical vision is so much richer. We are not customers or spectators; we are a spiritual family, a living temple, called to bring glory to God and to serve one another. This calling comes with both privilege and responsibility. We are set apart—made holy by Christ's sacrifice—and called to live differently, to be in the world but not of it. Holiness is not just for pastors or priests; it is the calling of every believer. We are a royal priesthood, offering our lives as living sacrifices.This journey of holiness is not about legalism or condemnation, but about responding to the loving conviction of the Spirit. Sometimes, God gently points out areas where we have compromised or grown numb to the world's influence. In those moments, we are invited to remember the privilege of His presence and to realign our lives with His purposes. The same God who dwelled in the tabernacle and temple now dwells in us, empowering us to live as His holy people.Chapters[00:00] - Welcome[01:00] - Summer Reflections and Family Updates[04:00] - Encountering the Western Wall[09:26] - The Wall of Separation and the Holy of Holies[10:44] - God's Presence Now Dwells in Us[14:09] - Misconceptions About Church[17:40] - EBC's Heart: Discipleship Over Consumerism[20:57] - Church: Not a Place, But an Identity[23:37] - Church Is for God's Glory, Not Ours[25:30] - From Spectators to Co-Laborers[27:32] - The Danger of a Consumer Mentality[30:19] - The Aircraft Carrier Analogy[33:15] - Biblical Metaphors: Temple, Bride, Body, Family[34:26] - The Temple: God's Presence and Our Unity[36:15] - Holiness in a Culture of Compromise[39:57] - The Story of Separation and God's Pursuit[43:28] - The Tabernacle: God Dwelling Among Sinners[45:14] - The Temple's Pattern and Its Fulfillment in Christ[46:52] - Jesus, the Final Sacrifice and the Torn Veil[49:11] - The Urgency of Personal Faith[50:15] - Living as God's Temple[53:10] - The Cloud of God's Presence and Our Mental Health[55:18] - The Call to Holiness and Responsibility[57:08] - You Are Not Your Own: Living Sacrifices[59:21] - Honest Confession and the Spirit's Conviction[01:03:56] - Responding to Conviction Without Condemnation[01:04:51] - Invitation to Prayer and Closing Worship

As believers who love the Lord and who are standing for His testimony, we must not be ignorant of the schemes of God's enemy in his attacks on the church. In order to help educate and inoculate us against such attacks, the co-workers in North America have released a series of articles on ShepherdingWords.com, which exposes the stratagems of the devil.This week we have a narration of the article titled “Encountering Opposition.” This article addresses an unpleasant subject - being confronted by those who speak against us - and a surprisingly pleasant way to respond to them. This is not a set of instructions on how to defeat opposition, but an admonition for us to realize that those humans who oppose us are not our enemies. We should approach them in love and take the Lord Jesus as grace to empower us to not be offended by their speaking. Further, we should pray for them and seek to minister something positive of the truth to them.May the Lord supply us through this speaking and equip us to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand (Ephesians 6:13).The original article can be found at: https://shepherdingwords.com/encountering-opposition/ .

Preaching for the Feast of St. Mary Magdalene, Martha Ligas invites us to let God's love transform us and - through us - the world: "May this day, this Feast of Mary Magdalene, be an opportunity to re-commit to transforming the world. To encountering and becoming the Love of God that the world so desperately needs. May we do it for our grandmothers, and our granddaughters, too. Like our ancestor Mary of Magdala, may we fall in love. May we stay in love. And may we let it decide everything."Martha Ligas (she/her) serves as the Pastoral Minister at the Community of St. Peter in Cleveland, Ohio, and Program Associate at FutureChurch. Both spaces give her room to ride the coattails of the Spirit by reimagining what it means to create faith communities of belonging. She is currently pursuing a Doctorate in Ministry from Fordham University. Martha lives in Cleveland, OH with her partner and their pets.

7/20/25 Encountering Jesus - Week 9 Featuring Pastor Larry Sams www.fccnp.org Helping People Find and Follow Jesus!

Welcome to the Leading Edge in Emotionally Focused Therapy, hosted by Drs. James Hawkins, Ph.D., LPC, and Ryan Rana, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC—Renowned ICEEFT Therapists, Supervisors, and Trainers. We're thrilled to have you with us. We believe this podcast, a valuable resource, will empower you to push the boundaries in your work, helping individuals and couples connect more deeply with themselves and each other. In this profound exploration of grief, Dr. Tal Padeh (ICEEFT Trainer, Israel EFT Center) reveals the transformative power of emotional connection. Through the lens of Emotionally Focused Therapy, we discover how grief can be a pathway to deeper understanding, love, and healing. Join us as we honor the complexity of loss and the human capacity to process pain with compassion and resilience. Another special treat, Nicola joined and added another layer of experience to this interview.  Grief is a natural human experience that requires a safe, compassionate space to process. Encountering loss involves recognizing what cannot be replaced and honoring the depth of emotional pain Couples can either be pushed apart or drawn closer through shared grief experiences. Grief is not something to "get over," but a journey of continued connection and love with one's own experience, accompanied by the support of others.  Cultural and personal defenses can block grief processing, but therapeutic support can help navigate these barriers to convert them into beautiful opportunities for sacred experience.  To support our mission and help us continue producing impactful content, your financial contributions via Venmo (@leftpodcast) are greatly appreciated. They play a significant role in keeping this valuable resource available and are a testament to your commitment to our cause.

If Catholic schools are already Catholic, why would they need to become more so? The unfortunate reality, however, is that some Catholic educational institutions are not living up to their name. As some frustrated parents, priests, and even teachers who are afraid of losing their jobs for being “too Catholic” around their colleagues know well, some schools actively promote values that contradict Church teachings. What has led to Catholic education in some instances to deviate from its mission? And what, more importantly, can we do about it?

|| ABOUT THIS MESSAGE || Pastor Jerry kicks off the final refresh in our ACTS message series by diving into Paul's powerful encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. Paul was obsessed with hunting down Christians - but right in the middle of that mission, Jesus showed up and changed everything. Instead of judgment, Paul received grace, and that moment became the start of a brand new life. Pastor Jerry reminded us that Jesus doesn't wait for us to clean up our act - He meets us right where we are, even at our worst. If He could rescue Paul, He can absolutely rescue you too.|| ABOUT BEACH CHURCH || We exist to reach, raise up, and release followers of Jesus who change the world.

On Strange Planet, we dive into the mysteries of consciousness with Andy Tomlinson and Reena Kumarasingham, authors of Between Lives. From a Thai boy's birthmarks echoing past-life gunshot wounds to a comatose patient pinpointing his dentures' location, their research unveils a reality where death is a doorway, not an end. Blending riveting cases with profound spiritual insights, they challenge science's limits and invite you to explore your soul's hidden journey. Are you ready to glimpse the eternal blueprint shaping your existence? GUEST: Reena Kumarasingham is a psychologist and regression therapist. Her life shifted after a 2020 near-death experience during a severe COVID-19 battle. Encountering light beings and a life review, she now merges clinical expertise with spiritual wisdom. As a Past Life Regression Academy trainer, Reena guides clients through between-lives states, revealing the soul's purpose. Her transformative work bridges science and spirituality, making her a bold voice in consciousness exploration. GUEST: Andy Tomlinson journeyed from computer engineer to transpersonal psychotherapist. He founded the Past Life Regression Academy, setting global standards. His evidence-based regression therapy uncovers past-life and between-lives truths, challenging materialist views. Andy's mission is to awaken humanity to the soul's wisdom, driving a global shift in consciousness.
