Thank you for joining us today for the latest episode of The Covenant Podcast!In this Covenant podcast, we unpack how your focus is shaping your future. Using Joseph's story (Genesis 37–41) and his sons' names—Manasseh (“God made me forget”) and Ephraim (“God made me fruitful”)—we explore the shift from replaying painful memories to a Spirit-led imagination rooted in God's promises (Ephesians 3:20).You'll learn how to release trauma, shame, and regret to Jesus, and how to fasten your heart to a fruitful future. If God could move Joseph from pit → prison → palace, He can reframe your story too.

Are you producing fruit? Is Christ dwelling in you and impacting others through His love to them through you?

October 26, 2025 AM - When the Most Fearful Step Becomes the Most Fruitful StepPastor Jerrod Jenkins

Because God's mission is to reign through humans, we must create image bearers who righteously rule on his behalf. Genesis 1:20–23, 26–28 20 And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” 21 So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” 23 And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day. 26 Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 28 And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

Galatians 5:22-23 | Steven Parkin We often view our calling to be patient with dread and frustration, but Scripture shows us that patience is a godly virtue. God demonstrates his grace and love to us by bearing with us patiently, giving us time to repent rather than immediately pouring out his righteous wrath on our sin. He then shares his patience with us, infusing us with the ability to bear up in the midst of persecution, provocation, and uncertainty. As we place our hope in Christ, we can endure anything with patience, knowing that God will bring us through what he has prepared for us.

This Lifeworlds episode is a devotional journey into the work of Rainer Maria Rilke, the lyrical German poet of thresholds and embracing transformations.Through readings of his most luminous poems and writings, we explore how Rilke guides us deliciously in reconciling suffering and turmoil with tremendous beauty. It's an offering for anyone standing in the in-between, for those moving through sublimation, and longing for those secret, dazzling encounters with primal life forces. Rilke's words are an invitation in. To move towards. His poems are prayers…. “to go out into our hearts as onto a vast plain, so that life can feel us as it reaches for us.” Hosted on Acast.

THE PROMISE KEEPER Part 4: Cup of Praise – The Promise of Fulfillment “From Success to Service” - Introducing “Mark” Mark was a rising star in the corporate world. He had the job, the bonus, the prestige, the weekend get-aways. Everyone praised him. Yet despite it all, he felt a deep emptiness inside—a gnawing void. One day, on a business trip, Mark visited a modest urban neighborhood on a whim. He met a local ministry worker who invited him to join a service-project that afternoon: helping refurbish an old community centre for at-risk youth. Mark showed up out of curiosity, not commitment. There, amid the paint-stained brushes and laughter of kids reclaiming space, something shifted. He realised: “I'm good at success — but it's not fulfilling me.” The smiles of the kids, the gratitude of the neighbourhood, the real-time impact—this stirred something in him. Over the next few months, Mark started going back—weekends, evenings—helping the neighbourhood centre, mentoring a teenager, listening to stories of struggle, cheering on simple victories. He discovered that his talents, his resources, his time—when invested not just for himself but for others—began to fill the void he had tried to ignore. Mark came to see that the promise he had been seeking wasn't: “You will have more, you will succeed more.” The promise he found was: “You will live more; you will serve more; and in that serving you will find fulfilment.” His life transformed: the career remained, but the definition of success changed. He measured success now in lives touched, hope renewed, a community uplifted. When he gave generously of himself, he found the greatest return. When he served others, he discovered what he was created for. He realised the cup of fulfilment was meant to be poured out, not just held for oneself. REVIEW: THE FOUR CUPS OF GOD'S PROMISES Our Christian Communion Celebration is modeled after the Jewish Passover, but where we use one cup, the Jewish people use four cups—each tied to Exodus 6:6–7. These cups represent four eternal promises God made more than 3,000 years ago, promises that still form the heart of His work today: Exodus 6:6–7 (NIV) Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment. I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.” A PROMISE is AN OFFER WITH A GUARANTEED RESULT. 1. “I will bring you out…” - Cup of SANCTIFICATION – The PROMISE OF SALVATION 2. “I will free you…” - Cup of DELIVERANCE – The PROMISE OF FREEDOM 3. “I will redeem you…” - Cup of REDEMPTION – The PROMISE OF RESTORATION 4. “I will take you as my own people.” - Cup of PRAISE – The PROMISE OF FULFILLMENT The Hebrew word “Hallel” means “to celebrate.” Combined with “Jah” (God), it gives us Hallelujah = Celebrate God! The Fourth Cup (Hallel) is about a celebrating life—“Hallelujah”—a life that magnifies God by making a difference with others as His people. This Fourth Cup is about LIVING A LARGE, FULL LIFE—not problem-free, but MEANINGFUL, FRUITFUL, and OVERFLOWING WITH JOY. God's desire is for you to live in such a way that your life itself becomes an act of praise—overflowing into others, making a difference in the world. Jesus confirmed this in: John 10:10 (TLB) — The thief's purpose is to steal, kill and destroy. My purpose is to give life in all its fullness. MANY DON'T LIVE IN FULFILLMENT BECAUSE… They let their past cripple them. They let culture define them. They try to do it all alone. THREE PRACTICAL WAYS TO WALK IN THE PROMISE OF FULFILLMENT 1. INVEST IN ETERNAL IMPACT Matthew 6:19–20 (NIV) — Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth… But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven. Fulfillment isn't found in what we accumulate, fulfillment is found in WHAT WE CONTRIBUTE. Ask: “How is my time, talent, and treasure advancing God's Kingdom?” Living for eternity gives your life lasting significance. 2. CELEBRATE PROGRESS, NOT PERFECTION Philippians 3:13–14 (NIV) — Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal… Don't let the weight of unfinished goals or past mistakes rob you of joy. Learn to praise God for progress… every step forward is evidence of His promise. Fulfillment grows when GRATITUDE BECOMES YOUR POSTURE. 3. MULTIPLY YOUR LIFE IN OTHERS 2 Timothy 2:2 (NIV) — And the things you have heard me say… entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. Fulfillment isn't just about what God does in you,

Audio Recording We apologize, there is no video of this week's sermon. Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Scott StrickmanSermon Series: Imagining the ChurchJohn 15:1-11 (ESV)1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me, he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. 9 As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. 11 These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.Sermon OutlineThe deep union between Jesus and his church is unique in its life-giving nature.1.

Yet we confess that we have often wandered from him. We have tried to grow apart from your grace, trusting our strength rather than your Spirit. We have resisted your pruning, clinging to habits and desires that do not give life. We have sought joy in passing things instead of abiding in your love. Forgive us, O Lord. Cut away all that is dead within us, and cleanse us from every fruitless work.

Synopsis: What happens when godly masculine strength unites with a godly helpmate? In marriage couples are called to live out their roles—husbands as loving, sacrificial covenant heads and wives as respectful, submissive helpers—in dependence on divine grace. A "fruitful" marriage, then, produces spiritual fruit (Galatians 5:22-23), glorifies God, endures trials through faith, and bears lasting kingdom impact, extending beyond the couple to their families and communities. This union, rooted in divine grace and sovereignty, reflects the gospel—husbands as loving, sacrificial covenant heads and wives as respectful, submissive helpers—transforming imperfect relationships into powerful testimonies of redemption. Sermon Text: 1 Peter 3:3-7

What if your “waiting place” is actually a greenhouse for growth? In this episode, we explore how God transforms seasons that feel stalled into fertile ground for spiritual, family, and community multiplication—starting with Israel's long stay in Goshen and stretching into the explosive movement of the early church. Instead of treating delay as dead time, we look at how Scripture frames waiting as a season to settle, steward, and sow: settle into faithful rhythms, steward what's already in your hands, and sow the seeds of discipleship that bear fruit over time.We walk through the pattern of multiplication found in Genesis and Acts—the call to be fruitful and multiply, the Israelites acquiring property and increasing, the word of God spreading widely and growing in power. Along the way, we address a cultural reality: our world is downsizing vision, commitment, and responsibility. Against that tide, we cast a hopeful vision for kingdom growth that includes both physical and spiritual children. Whether you're a parent, a single adult, a grandparent, or a young professional, you have a part to play: share the gospel, mentor someone younger, open your home, pray with a student, and bring Scripture into everyday conversations.If your life feels like Goshen right now, take courage. Growth is not postponed until perfect conditions arrive. It begins where you are—one heart, one family, one home, one conversation at a time. We close with practical prompts to help you grow in grace, truth, love, and maturity, and a challenge to make Jesus more famous through ordinary faithfulness. Subscribe at familydiscipleme.org/subscribe for more thoughtful, faith-centered conversations, share this with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review to help others discover this message of fruitful waiting.______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

The Gospel Lesson: John 15:1-6Sermon: “The Fruitful Life: Preparing for Growth”Preaching: Rev. Bill Britt, senior minister, Peachtree Road United Methodist Church The post 10.12.25 | The Fruitful Life: Preparing for Growth appeared first on Peachtree Road United Methodist Church.

This week, guest preacher Juan Meza brought an inspiring message called “A Fruitful Heart.” Using Jesus' parable about planting seed in good soil from Matthew 13, Juan reminded us that fruitful growth doesn't happen by accident—it takes preparation and care. He used a garden hoe as a powerful visual, showing how the soil must be worked and softened before it's ready to receive seed. In the same way, our hearts must be tended and made ready for God's Word to take root. Through hard work, humility, and openness, we can cultivate hearts where His truth grows strong and produces lasting fruit. Don't miss this message—it's a powerful reminder that God can do incredible things in a heart that's been made ready for Him.

Noah's story doesn't end with the rainbow. After the flood, this righteous man experienced a devastating fall that teaches us important lessons about human nature and grace. Noah's gradual descent into sin reminds us that anyone can fall, and that failure often happens in private long before it becomes public. His story shows how sin spreads quickly through families and communities, affecting the most vulnerable first. However, we can learn from the contrasting responses of Noah's sons - while Ham exposed his father's shame, Shem and Japheth chose to cover it with love. This points us to the Gospel, where Christ covers our shame with His righteousness, and calls us to extend that same covering grace to others.Visit https://www.centralchurch.com to get involved with Central Church.

In this podcast, Pastor Justin delivers a timely word about seeing the things God has promised actually come to pass.Support the show

When disaster strikes, we often struggle with trust in ourselves, others, and God. Genesis 9 shows us how God meets Noah's family after the flood with a powerful covenant (or promise) that offers comfort and security. This covenant has four key aspects: its broad scope includes all creation, its security is permanent across generations, its singularity means it depends solely on God's faithfulness, and its seal (the rainbow) serves as a reminder of God's commitment. Through Jesus Christ, we experience an even greater covenant that offers security when our world falls apart, reminding us to find our comfort in God's faithfulness rather than our circumstances.Visit https://www.centralchurch.com to get involved with Central Church.

In this week's message, Pastor Jordan Shimon shares how God's Kingdom has always been designed to grow through family — not systems or structures, but sons and daughters walking in covenant relationship. From Abraham's promise to the blessing of Jacob and Joseph in Genesis 48, we're reminded that the Kingdom of God multiplies through love, unity, and generational faithfulness. Discover how embracing your identity as part of God's family releases His authority and purpose in your life.
