Here, you'll find engaging conversations and important questions that help us connect to the body of Christ despite what the culture believes to be true.During this episode, we are learning how to open our lives up to others and invite God to do the heavy lifting in the process of discipleship.MATTHEW 5:43-4843 “You have heard that it was said, Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be children of your Father in heaven. For he causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Don't even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers and sisters, what are you doing out of the ordinary? Don't even the Gentiles do the same? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.MEET YOLANDAYolanda M.

That "How much more" Faith by Epiphany Church
In this episode, Yolanda Solomon shares what effective discipleship looks like. It's important to encounter Jesus' beauty and person rather than focus on behavior modification. She highlights examples of communal and experiential discipleship, navigating cultural biases by focusing on Jesus, and understanding identity and authority in Christ. We also talk about justice and embodiment through following Jesus' care for the poor and marginalized, as well as moving discipleship from a classroom model to more participatory experiences and apprenticeship. So join us as we discover what effective discipleship looks like.

Pastor Dylan's Anniversary Sermon by Epiphany Church
Today's Topics: 1) We receive the gift of Piety to make us love God as a Father and obey Him because we love Him. Piety is a religious devotion and reverence, devotion and reverence to parents and family: filial piety; devout act, thought, or statement, 2) Guest, Brother Knight Robert Yrigoyen, Sr., talks about his faith journey. Although he was active in his Catholic faith as a young person, he fell away. A Marriage Encounter retreat with his wife led him back into the Faith, 3) Saint Thérèse, the Little Flower, has shown that each of us, regardless of how insignificant our role in life may seem, may serve and love God in glorious ways by the very simplest of our pious thoughts, menial chores, small acts of kindness, by our acts of patience when we are put upon by others, and by enduring whatever sufferings might come our way. Robert discusses his journey into the Knights of Columbus and the good works his council does for Epiphany Church in South El Monte, CA. 4) Robert is the Cursillo English Lay Director for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Cursillo in Christianity is a Movement that, by its own Method, attempts from within the Church, to give life to the essential Christian truths in the singularity, originality, and creativity of the person. https://cursillo-losangeles.org/ https://www.natl-cursillo.org/ Theme: "Salve Regina" performed by Floriani.

Derrick Parks, Pastor and Church Planter of Epiphany Church of Wilmington, brings the worship message based on 1 Corinthians 13:4a, 7. Demonstrating love in a hostile world requires patience; that is, persevering and suffering long because people are messy. Loving hostile people requires kindness, which is more than being "nice." Kindness is being useful and benevolent toward others. Loving someone who is hostile means bearing all things; that is, pointing that person to the Saviour who protects and covers. Finally, loving in a hostile world requires knowing how to endure with people, keeping pace while carrying the light of Christ.
