Several weeks ago, YA hosted a panel of Christians who have been serving God and sharing the gospel in a secular work environment for several years. In that panel, we discussed how to overcome common barriers to sharing the gospel in your workplace.  In this episode, we've invited Hatley and Kristi Hambrice to discuss their experience blending business and missions. The Hambrices are global mission partners of Fellowship Bible Church, they own several businesses locally and globally, and have used their entrepreneurial giftings to reach people with the gospel here in the US and across the world. Throughout this episode we discuss the Hambrices unique journey, how young adults can use their unique giftings to reach unbelievers with the gospel, how to discern God's call for your life, and much more.  We hope you're encouraged by this podcast! If you have questions about our church or what it means to follow Jesus, we'd love to hear from you! Check out our Instagram @fellowshipya, website www.fellowshipar.com/young-adults, or send us at email at youngadults@fellowshipar.com.

In this week's Sermon Spotlight, we explore what it really means to follow Jesus as we unpack the sermon, "The Cost of Discipleship" from Mark 8:34-38. We take a closer look at Jesus' call to costly discipleship and what it means to live as both recipients of grace and active followers of Christ. From denying ourselves to taking up our cross, we examine the three imperatives Jesus gives—and the four powerful reasons why the cost is always worth it.Listen to the sermon we're talking about: fbcva.org/current-sermon-series or fbcva.org/podcastsBe a part of the conversation by submitting your thoughts and questions: fbcva.org/sermon-spotlight-podcastWatch this episode and subscribe on YouTube:  @fellowshipbiblechurchvaFind out more about Fellowship Bible Church: fbcva.orgSubscribe to emails from Fellowship: fbcva.org/subscribeEngage with us:Facebook: facebook.com/groups/fellowshipfamInstagram: instagram.com/fellowshipbiblechurch/   More Channels from Fellowship:Weekend Sermons: fbcva.org/podcastThe Global Church Podcast: fbcva.org/the-global-church-podcastThe Fellowship Family Podcast: fbcva.org/fellowshipfamilypodcast#SermonSpotlight #FellowshipBibleChurch #Discipleship #Mark8 #TakeUpYourCross #ChristianPodcast #CostOfDiscipleship

I believe in Jesus Christ,His only Son, our Lord,Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin MaryHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. Luke 1:26-38 is usually thought of as a “Christmas text,” so we are talking about Christmas in September! When do you usually begin thinking about Christmas? 2. When you think about Jesus, what are some of the titles, images, or ideas that come to your mind? Where did you learn and develop your view of Jesus? 3. What are some ways we see Jesus' humanity in Luke 1:26-38? What are some other Bible passages that reveal Jesus' humanity? Why should we be encouraged by the fact that Jesus is a human like us? What impact should this make in your life today? 4. What are some ways we see Jesus is God in Luke 1:26-38? What are some other Bible passages that reveal Jesus is God? Why should we be encouraged by the fact that Jesus is God? What impact should this make in your life today? 5. How would you explain to someone the importance of the virgin birth? What are some key truths that are revealed in the virgin birth? 6. Mary responded to this incredible news by saying, “I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word” (Luke 1:38). In what area of your life is God calling you to be faithful? What would it look like for you to respond like Mary in your life? Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Sindhi of Belize The Sindhi in Belize are a small Muslim people group of about 6,800, originally from the Sindh region of Pakistan. While their homeland blends Islamic practice with folk traditions, the Sindhi in Belize are considered fully Muslim. There are currently no known followers of Christ among them. Though the complete Bible, Jesus Film, and audio resources exist in Sindhi, the gospel remains largely out of reach.

What does it truly mean to love someone through their darkest moments? In this episode of Our Community, Our Mission, Mike Schoettle, TRM's Director of Spiritual Wellness and Discipleship, explores the transformative idea of “Loving in the Gap.” The gap is the space where people find themselves trapped in homelessness, addiction, or trauma. Instead of offering help from a distance, true ministry means stepping into that space, walking alongside others with patience, dignity, and compassion.Guided by TRM's seven biblical pillars, this conversation shows that loving in the gap is not about quick fixes but about unconditional acceptance and recognizing the image of God in every person. Practical acts such as meals, shelter, and case management become living expressions of a deeper truth: every life is worth standing with, no matter how difficult the journey. This same theme of Loving in the Gap will shape TRM's Night of Praise happening this Friday, September 12, at 6:30 p.m. at Fellowship Bible Church. It will be an evening of worship, gratitude, and community you will not want to miss.To learn more about Night of Praise, Click Here!To support TRM, Click Here! Send us a Message!

What does it mean to “fight the good fight of the faith” (v. 12)?• How is this different from fighting for faith vs. fighting with faith? • What doctrinal “fights” are worth engaging in as believers?• Which ones are distractions?2. Paul tells Timothy to “take hold of eternal life” (v. 12).• How can eternal life be something we take hold of now, not just something we receive later?• Look at John 17:3 and answer the question above again.3. Why does he warn so strongly about misplaced hope in riches (vv. 17–19)?• What subtle ways might we put our hope in wealth instead of God?• How can generosity and “being rich in good works” reorient our hearts?4. Paul commands Timothy to “guard the gospel” (vv. 20–21).• What are modern threats to the gospel (inside and outside the church)?• What practical steps can we take personally—and as a group—to “guard” what's been entrusted to us?5. Paul ends his letter with “Grace be with you.”• Why is grace the final word of Paul's pastoral instruction?• How does God's grace empower you to live out these commands—and where do you still struggle to rest in that grace?God designed the church to be a battleground for sound doctrine where people place their hope in God and not riches nd by this experience a taste of eternal life here and now.Pray for the Unreached: The Ad Dharma in IndiaThe Ad Dharmi are a marginalized community of over 1 million in northern India, primarily working in leather-related trades. Though socially integrated in some ways, they still face low status in Hindu society. Most follow traditional Hindu practices, seeking blessings through temple rituals and festivals. Despite having access to the Bible and gospel media, there are virtually no known believers among them. Pray that the Ad Dharmi would encounter the love of Jesus and that entire families would be drawn to Him.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 08/24 33,585Giving For 08/31 17,481YTD Budget 311,538Giving 264,549 OVER/(UNDER) (46,989)Fellowship CollegeAre you a college student or between the ages of 18–22?

God the Creator • Everything begins with God • He is a self-revealing God • Creator/creation distinction • Only the Creator is worthy of worship • God's creation has great value/meaning • The Creator sets the rules • Two Unsatisfying Worldviews: Materialism and GnosticismFather Almighty • He is Father • We can belong to His great family • He is AlmightyHOME CHURCH QUESTIONS1. When you think about God, what are some of the first names, images, or ideas that come to your mind? Where did you learn and develop your view of God? 2. The Bible begins with God creating all things (Gen 1:1). If we start here and understand this, we are well on our way to getting other important parts of the Christian faith. What other important parts of the faith will we fail to grasp if we don't understand this foundational truth? Explain why understanding “God the Creator” is essential for the rest of the Christian faith. 3. God reveals Himself so we can know Who He is and who we are and what He expects of us. However, many people believe in a god very different from the biblical view of God. What are some common ways people you interact with think about God? Talk about some ways you tend to think about God that are different from the biblical view. How can we make sure we are thinking rightly about God? 4. We talked about the importance of making a distinction between the Creator and the creation. What are some key differences between these two? Why is it important to maintain this distinction? What are some of the consequences if we don't make this distinction? Who or what do you tend to value more than the Creator? 5. We can know God as our Father, and we can be adopted and belong to His great family. Which of these powerful truths (related to Fatherhood, family, and adoption) resonates most with you? Why? Are there any other related verses, truths, or experiences you have had that are meaningful to you? 6. When you think about God, do you tend to think of Him more as Almighty or more as Father? Explain why. What steps can we take to make sure we think of God rightly as both Father and Almighty?Mission Highlight - The Acehnese in Indonesia The Acehnese, a devout Muslim people of over 4 million in Indonesia's Aceh province, are known for their strong Islamic identity and adherence to Sharia law. Many are farmers or fishermen, living in close-knit communities shaped by a mix of Islam and local spirit beliefs. Though gospel resources exist in their language, they remain highly resistant to Christianity. Pray for open doors for believers to live among them, meet needs, and share the hope of Jesus Christ.FinancesWeekly Budget 34,615Giving For 08/17 23,268Giving For 08/24 33,585YTD Budget 276,923Giving 247,068 OVER/(UNDER) (29,855) Fellowship CollegeAre you a college student or between the ages of 18–22?

Guiding Question: How can the church prepare for what's next while faithfully handing off leadership to the next generation? Summary Description: In this heartfelt and visionary message, Robert Lewis shares his final sermon as a staff member of Fellowship Bible Church. Using a marathon analogy and drawing from 2 Timothy 4, he frames the transfer of leadership as a necessary and strategic “handoff” to the next generation. Like Paul entrusting Timothy to lead the church at Ephesus, Lewis charges the younger leaders at Fellowship—particularly Tim Lundy—with the responsibility of preaching the Word and fulfilling their ministry with conviction and endurance. This message is both personal and prophetic. Lewis reflects on 25 years of ministry, celebrates the strength of the church, and lays out five key cultural and ministry trends that the next generation must address to ensure the church remains vibrant and faithful. Outline: Marathon Analogy – A race requires preparation, guidance, and the right pacing. Paul and Timothy (2 Timothy 4) – The sacred handoff of leadership and mission. The Reality of Decline – Every thriving church has a shelf life without renewal. Five Cultural and Ministry Trends: Massive church closures due to generational shifts. A move toward small, high-quality churches. A demand for doctrinal clarity and authentic leadership. The rise of homegrown, non-seminary ministers. A renewed focus on evangelizing children and teens. Personal Reflections and Departure – Robert Lewis formally announces his transition to Global Reach and commissions Fellowship's next generation. The Final Charge – Preach the Word. Fulfill your ministry. Die with no regrets. Key Takeaways Effective leadership transitions are intentional, spiritual, and urgent for the future health of the church. The church must adapt to cultural and generational changes without compromising doctrinal clarity or mission. Small churches can be powerful when combined with excellence and community. The future of the church depends on equipping everyday believers for ministry. The most strategic evangelism today is aimed at youth, given their openness and under-reached status. Finishing well means living with “no regrets” and passing the baton with confidence and hope. Scriptural References 2 Timothy 4:1–8 – Paul's solemn charge to Timothy and reflection on finishing well. Acts 20:18–32 (paraphrased) – Paul's farewell to the Ephesian elders, adapted by Lewis to say goodbye to Fellowship. Ecclesiastes 3:1 (implied) – Recognizing seasons and times for transitions.

In last week's conversation with Chad and Ronni Fellers (listen HERE), we heard the story of their son Paxton—his adoption, his joy-filled spirit, and the day their lives changed forever. We also heard how grief has forced them to wrestle deeply with their faith and the goodness of God in the wake of profound loss.In today's episode, part two of our conversation, we focus on something many grieving hearts struggle to understand: lament. Chad and Ronni speak honestly about what it means to bring their pain, their questions, even their anger to God—not as a lack of faith, but as a vital expression of it. As Ronni puts it, “When you're wrestling with someone, you're face to face. And if I'm still wrestling with God, it means I haven't turned away.”We talk about how lament has shaped their grief, their marriage, their parenting, and their perspective on worship. Ronni shares the story behind her blog, The God Kiss, and the healing she's found in writing her wrestle.This conversation is a powerful reminder that God welcomes our sorrow—and meets us there with His presence. We'll pick up right where we left off last week.Click HERE to watch the Fellers' video testimony produced by Fellowship Bible Church.  I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

We're beginning a two-part series today with Chad and Ronni Fellers, who invite us into their story and help us understand what it means to grieve with both faith and honesty.In today's episode, Chad and Ronni share about their son Paxton, a young man his dad describes as “all gas, no brakes”—his adoption story, his bold and fearless personality, and the morning that marked the beginning of a life-altering journey. They talk about the six weeks spent in the hospital, the thousands of people who prayed, and the moment they realized God's healing would look different than they had hoped. Through it all, they speak openly about writhing in pain, wrestling with God, and slowly learning how to worship in the midst of deep grief.In this episode, we discuss:Paxton's adoption and early yearsHis vibrant, fearless personalityThe morning everything changedTheir six-week stay in the ICUThe role of faith during traumaHonest wrestling with God in griefWhy lament is a faithful response to sufferingThe recalibration of life after child lossThis episode is not about resolution—it's about invitation: to lament, to question, and to trust that even in the ache, we are not alone.Click HERE to watch the Fellers' video testimony produced by Fellowship Bible Church.  I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

In this episode, we sit down with Micah to debrief Sunday's sermon on Mark 6:7–13. Together, we explore the apostles' mission, their call to go out in faith, and the radical dependency they were invited into.We reflect on what it means to live faithfully when we don't have all the answers—and how failure isn't the end, but often the very thing God uses to teach and shape us.

What is distinctive about us is important for Christ's Kingdom here.

Our crew talks further about this idea of faith, and how we can desire more and more of Jesus in order to effectively have faith (and rest!) in Him.
