In this episode I sit down with Andrew and Kara Root to talk about their new book, A Pilgrimage Into Letting Go. Written out of their journey walking St. Cuthbert's Way with their children, the book reflects on parenting, pastoring, and the hard but necessary work of releasing control. Together we explore why modern life pushes us to manage every detail, how uncontrollability can actually be a gift, and what it looks like to see parenting as a pilgrimage. Along the way, we talk about prayer as listening, the difference between being a tourist and a pilgrim, and the ways God encounters us when we surrender to presence. This is a conversation about trust, family, and faith that invites us to walk with open hands and open hearts.Andrew Root is the Carrie Olson Baalson Professor of Youth and Family Ministry at Luther Seminary, USA. He writes and researches in areas of theology, ministry, culture and younger generations. His most recent books are Evangelism in an Age of Despair (Baker, 2025), The Church in an Age of Secular Mysticisms (Baker, 2023), Churches and the Crisis of Decline (Baker, 2022), The Congregation in a Secular Age (Baker, 2021), and The Pastor in a Secular Age: Ministry to People Who No Longer Need God (Baker, 2019). In addition, he serves as theologian in residence for Youthfront. Rev. Kara K. Root is the author of The Deepest Belonging (2021) and Receiving This Life: (2023).

In this engaging episode, host Dr. Matt Davis interviews fall meetings guest speaker Pastor Joel Mikkelson, asking why he chose to present messages on the attributes of God. Mentioning the apparent conflict between scarcity as the economic standard for determining value and God's infinity, Dr. Davis asks the intriguing question, “Then what is God's value?” They address God's holiness and how it suggests “boundaries of scarcity.” Then the conversation shifts to Joel's mission not only to serve faithfully, but also to enjoy serving. Dr. Davis notes that Pastor Mikkelson's ministry is complex, requiring him to lead, not serve. They talk about the balance of delegating work while continuing to actively participate in it. They evaluate perspectives of ministry in the diverse, “almost hostile environment” of California and Santa Maria's “de-churched, unchurched” culture and the faulty perception of size as a “benchmark” of faithfulness. About our guest Joel Mikkelson [‘01] is pastor of First Baptist Church of Santa Maria, California, and serves on Maranatha's Board of Resource. Raised in a pastor's family in Wisconsin, a home which engendered a desire for lifelong service, he attended Maranatha where he met his wife, Kelly. Upon graduation, they joined the staff of Kelly's home church in Santa Maria where Kelly assumed responsibilities as the finance director and Joel began his “dream job” as children's pastor. He served in that position for 14 years before becoming the lead pastor. The Mikkelsons have five children. One, a 2025 Maranatha graduate, works for the university, and another is currently a student.

What does it really mean to flourish, and how do curious skeptics become devoted followers of Jesus? In this message from Acts 17:16–34, Pastor Benjer explores Paul's famous address in Athens at the Areopagus and shows how God awakens spiritual curiosity, why some mock before they believe, and how everyday Christians can step into gospel conversations with confidence and love. If you've ever wondered how to talk about Jesus in a culture crowded with competing definitions of “the good life,” this teaching is for you. Paul arrives in Athens “provoked” by a city full of idols, yet he responds not with outrage but with compassion and reason. He finds common ground, exposes the emptiness of man-made gods, and proclaims the Creator who “gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.” He names the altar “To the Unknown God,” declares the risen Christ as Lord and Judge, and invites repentance. The result is mixed, just like today: some mock, some want to hear more, and some believe. Acts 17:16–34 becomes a masterclass in evangelism, apologetics, and pastoral heart, all centered on the resurrection of Jesus. This message also frames a bigger journey many of us are on. We borrow our vision of flourishing from social media, success metrics, and other people's expectations, then wonder why we are anxious, exhausted, and empty. Scripture paints a different picture. Jeremiah 17 describes the flourishing person as a tree planted by streams of water, unafraid of heat and drought, still bearing fruit. Jesus clarifies the source in John 15: abide in Him, the true vine, and you will bear much fruit; apart from Him you can do nothing. Real flourishing is not self-optimization. It is a Spirit-powered, Jesus-rooted life that blesses others. You will hear a practical pathway for growth that moves from curious to connected to committed to compelled to consecrated. Curiosity is often awakened by God long before a person ever sits in a church. That is why ordinary believers matter so much. You are already placed in neighborhoods, classrooms, teams, and workplaces where spiritual conversations can naturally begin. You won't know who is curious about Jesus until you talk about Jesus. Our lives should commend the gospel, but the gospel itself must be spoken. Faith comes by hearing the word of Christ. If you are exploring Christianity, this message invites you to ask honest questions and follow the evidence. The God who made you is “not far from each one of us.” If you are a follower of Jesus, you will be challenged to pray by name for one person in your everyday life and to look for the openings God provides. Evangelism is not a performance; it is participation with a God who is already pursuing people in love. Key themes include Acts 17:16–34, Paul in Athens, the Areopagus, the “unknown god,” idols and worldview, resurrection apologetics, repentance and faith, discipleship, abiding in Christ, Jeremiah 17, John 15, spiritual curiosity, gospel conversations, and a biblical vision of flourishing. Whether you are new to church or a long-time Christian, this sermon will help you discern the voices shaping your life, root your joy and purpose in Jesus, and step into your calling as an everyday ambassador of Christ. If this message helps you, consider sharing it with a friend who is curious about Jesus. Subscribe for more Bible teaching on the way of discipleship, spiritual formation, and how to flourish in Christ in every season.
What is the primary role of the church? What is the message of the church? People can get weighed down by serving, ministry, and the busyness of church life. In this message Pastor Derrick Lynch answers those questions and more in our sermon series, “Welcome Home”, preaching from the book of 2 Corinthians. Notes in this sermon: The church must be confident in the message, compelled by the message, and commissioned with the message.

It will be CONFRONTATIONAL! But confrontation is, more often than not, necessary at times to combat and restrain evil. How can we change the way people THINK, without being confrontational and challenging their foundation?The Church finds itself in another situation… in another opportunity given to us by GOD…. To make a choice to stand on the TRUTH of God's Word, and to use it as God intended, for Doctrine, Reproof, Correction, and Instruction in Righteousness!www.LeagueOfLogic.com

We hope you enjoy and benefit from Grace Point Church's messages. Thank you for taking time to listen!
From the time we are kids, we are taught to share, but when it comes to sharing our faith, it often brings up negative feelings. Some of us think of the pushy salesman or a yelling street corner preacher. Others aren't sure if or why they should share their faith. But what if God's vision for sharing our faith is simpler and far more beautiful? What if it's about loving God and sharing hope?
The Triune God who is sovereign over all rulers, all realms, and all reality has set his eternal love on us.

Lost means something is not where it is supposed to be, not that it never belonged. Jesus seeks us all because God's joy is not complete until everyone is home. Scripture: Luke 15:1-10

Every church must make decisions about how to utilize its limited time and resources for the benefit of the entire church. What ministries get the prime announcement time? What new things should the church do, and how should the leaders of the church decide in a sea of the congregation's suggestions? How do leaders decide? The leadership tool, “Yours, Mine, Ours,” is an approach every leader should know and put into practice. In addition, church members will be substantially more helpful to his or her leadership when they too understand the “Yours, Mine, Ours” principle. Copyright 2025.

JOHN 8:1-11 - ADULTEROUS WOMAN - BRIAN SUMNER - 2025"But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.2 Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. 3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, 4 they said to Him, “Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned. But what do You say?” 6 This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stooped down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.7 So when they continued asking Him, He]raised Himself up and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” 8 And again He stooped down and wrote on the ground. 9 Then those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?”11 She said, “No one, Lord.”And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.”To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY.

“Brother Bayram” is back to finish the conversation we began last week. He came to the United States from Türkiye (formerly Turkey) to further his education and start a business. One day, a Christian woman came to his business and gave Bayram a New Testament. He began to read, beginning a path that would lead him to faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Son of God. Hear stories of people in Türkiye leaving Islam and embracing Jesus Christ—and the persecution they've endured for making that decision. What are the truths that draw them? What are the misunderstandings of the gospel that Christians can address with Muslims? How do new Christians in Türkiye think about revealing to Muslim family members that they now follow Christ? Bayram will tell the story of a young atheist who, after talking with Bayram for an entire evening, saw Jesus in two dreams. This young man embraced the gospel and became a follower of Jesus. It was a costly decision: as soon as he became a Christian, everyone around him became an enemy. Listen as Bayram equips us to pray for Türkiye and for our Christian brothers and sisters there. You can connect online with Brother Bayram and his ministry at www.albtci.org. In the VOM Radio archives, you can hear David Byle tell his story of persecution in Türkiye.
