On Sunday, Mike Hardie shared with us one his final messages as lead paster at Goodlife. If you've missed that update you can find it here: In his message, Mike is revisiting the idea of "Thank God You're Here", a message he shared over 4 years ago about how can we, as followers of christ, be a group of people that when we show up in a situation people go; "Thank God You're Here". This sermon takes a look at 2 Kings 6 which demonstrates the God of everyday problems and that to live in the way of Jesus is to show up and be a presences that says: - You're not alone in this struggle - Your problem matters to God - Help is available - Restoration is possible - This community cares about you   WEBSITE :: https://www.goodlife.org.au/ and https://www.goodlife.org.au/church-notices SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5tgYs0DLkpe3yxj15nTRUh?si=KWSJIsI-Q7auMNx4WLn6xg Goodlife Collective:: https://open.spotify.com/track/6AIpkihS5W6fyQb81U53ql?si=eae8759fd4d947f6&nd=1&dlsi=45435542515e4942   CONNECT via socials FACEBOOK :: https://www.facebook.com/goodlifecommunitychurch INSTAGRAM:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlifecommunitychurch/ YOUTH:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlife_youth/ COLLECTIVE:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlifecollective_/

In the final week of our God, Help Me With… series, Pastor Aaron tackles the struggle many of us face but often avoid talking about: breaking bad habits. Whether it's with food, technology, substances, or relationships, we all have patterns that pull us away from who we truly want to become. Drawing from Scripture and his own personal story, Pastor Aaron reminds us that real change doesn't start with willpower. It starts with surrender. When we are at our weakest, God's strength is more than enough. This message is a powerful call to define the habits holding us back, prepare for our weakest moments, and trust that God will always provide a way out.

This week at Trace, Pastor Aaron continued our God, Help Me With… series by speaking on the topic of forgiveness. Whether you've struggled to let go of something painful or questioned why God would ask you to forgive someone who deeply hurt you, this message offers both challenge and hope. Through his personal story of loss and a deep dive into Scripture, Pastor Aaron reminds us that forgiveness isn't about fairness, it's about freedom. It's not based on our feelings but on our faith, and it's a reflection of God's heart working through us. If you are carrying wounds or bitterness, this message will help you take a step toward healing, peace, and the fullness of life that Jesus promises. Watch or listen now and discover the power of forgiveness in your own life.

Welcome to Faith in the Morning! God wants to give you the desires of your heart because He loves you! Since that is the truth, we need to stay on the positive side of life. When God leads us to give up a desire of our heart, it is because He has something far better for us. However, sometimes it's hard to give it up. How do you become willing?

"God, I believe, but help me with the questions I have"

Is it possible to be a faithful Christian and still wrestle with doubt?In this powerful Mother's Day message, Pastor Aaron from Trace Church in Colorado Springs tackles one of the most honest struggles in our faith journey: doubt. Through the story of the demon-possessed boy in Mark 9, the raw confession of “I believe, help my unbelief,” and the story of Doubting Thomas, Aaron reminds us that faith and doubt can coexist. Doubt does not disqualify you from following Jesus.Whether you're struggling to believe, grieving, or pretending everything is fine when it's not, this message is for you. Pastor Aaron speaks to the heart of anyone who has ever felt like a fraud for having questions. This sermon will encourage you to bring your full self to God, doubts included, and discover that Jesus still meets you with compassion.Trace Church is a place where you can stop pretending. This is a safe space to be honest about your struggles and grow a faith that is real, not perfect.

Shame doesn't just wound your story. It tries to rewrite your identity. In this powerful message, Dr. T unpacks the shame cycle, reveals how the enemy distorts our worth, and reminds us that grace gives us a new name. If you've ever felt too broken or too far gone, this message is for you. God's truth is simple but life-changing. You are, you were, and you will be loved.

High levels of frustration can produce self-defeating thoughts and behaviors.  You need to find the strength to power through.  Trust in God to help you find the way.  

In his message at Cherry Hills Community Church, Pastor Gary Thomas emphasized that every marriage needs a God-given mission to truly thrive. Using Matthew 6:33, "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well," he challenged couples to prioritize God's purpose over personal happiness. Pastor Gary explained that when spouses unite around serving God's kingdom, their relationship grows stronger and more meaningful. He encouraged husbands and wives to ask, "How can our marriage advance God's work in the world?" Ultimately, he reminded everyone that a mission-driven marriage reflects Christ's love and brings lasting fulfillment beyond what self-focused living can offer.

In this message, Dr. Trent Langhofer from Trace Church kicks off our new series “Lord, Help Me With” by addressing the reality of anxiety. Through biblical teaching, personal stories, and practical steps, he shows how facing fear with faith, revealing hidden struggles, and surrendering control can lead to real peace through Christ.

Genesis 1:31; 3:1-5; 6:5; Deuteronomy 5:33 Matthew 5:21-22 2 Corinthians 5:17 Romans 12:2   Ephesians 4:17-24   When we gave our lives to Christ we didn't simply join a new religion, we became a new creation. But instead of living like it, we like to do things ourselves. But when we try to fix everything on our own, it can have unintended consequences. Here are some warnings about self-help: Self-help is often self-centered Self-help can easily become self-worship   God-help, on the other hand, works in a different way: God-help is a God-first system God-help is the only help that actually works   Crossroads – about heaven, earth, and the journey in between.

In this episode of The Earth Experience Podcast, a deeply personal story unfolds—one of struggle, surrender, and supernatural encounters that changed everything. Raised in a strict Pentecostal upbringing, the guest shares what it was like to wrestle with faith, personal identity, and the weight of religious expectations while navigating the realities of mental health, toxic relationships, and spiritual warfare.A moment of desperation led to a simple but life-altering prayer, igniting a journey of deliverance, prophetic dreams, and encounters with the Holy Spirit that shattered old belief systems. As part of this transformation, she lost over 270 pounds, a process that wasn't just about physical change but spiritual renewal. From supernatural visions and sleep paralysis to fasting, renouncing soul ties, and breaking generational cycles, the path to healing wasn't easy—but it was transformative.This conversation is for those seeking clarity in their faith, struggling with identity, or searching for proof that transformation is possible. It's an honest look at what it means to walk away from darkness, embrace spiritual gifts, and experience true freedom—inside and out.

Movie of the Year: 1996The Hunchback of Notre DameExploring Disney's "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" on the Movie of the Year PodcastDiscover Disney's boldest animated film through the lens of the Movie of the Year podcast as they dive into the ambitious and controversial 1996 adaptation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. This animated classic challenges traditional Disney boundaries with its exploration of religion, sensuality, and a captivating musical score. Urban apartment dwellers, take note: this episode offers a fresh perspective on a film that dares to be daring.Religion in Disney's The Hunchback of Notre DameOne of the central themes of The Hunchback of Notre Dame is its exploration of religion. The podcast's hosts delve into how the film portrays faith as both a source of refuge and a tool of oppression. Judge Claude Frollo, voiced with chilling gravitas by Tony Jay, embodies religious hypocrisy, twisting doctrine to justify his sinister deeds. Meanwhile, the cathedral of Notre Dame itself offers sanctuary and hope, symbolizing the redemptive aspects of faith.The hosts highlight how the film's darker tone resonates with urban audiences familiar with the complexities of modern spirituality. They note how Quasimodo's deep connection to the cathedral—both his prison and his home—reflects the dual nature of organized religion, capable of both nurturing and constraining the human spirit.Sensuality and Desire: The Horniness of Disney's HunchbackFor a Disney film, The Hunchback of Notre Dame stands out for its overt sensuality. The podcast tackles the infamous “Hellfire” sequence, in which Frollo's inner turmoil over his lust for Esmeralda is rendered in a fiery, operatic number. The hosts marvel at the audacity of Disney animators to include a scene that grapples with such adult themes.Esmeralda, voiced by Demi Moore, is another focal point of discussion. Her character—confident, compassionate, and unapologetically alluring—challenges traditional Disney princess tropes. The hosts discuss how her portrayal aligns with a more mature understanding of desire and autonomy, appealing to an adult sensibility often overlooked in animated films. They also note how this layer of complexity mirrors the romantic struggles of urban life, where relationships often blur the line between attraction and complication.Alan Menken's Music: A Symphony of EmotionAlan Menken's score for The Hunchback of Notre Dame is nothing short of operatic, and the podcast dedicates ample time to unpacking its grandeur. The sweeping melodies and choral arrangements lend the film an epic quality that elevates its narrative stakes. Songs like “Out There” and “God Help the Outcasts” capture the yearning and vulnerability of the characters, resonating with anyone who has ever felt marginalized.The hosts also discuss how the music's blend of Latin liturgical elements and Broadway sensibilities creates a unique auditory experience. They point out how the score's sophistication feels tailor-made for urban audiences accustomed to cultural diversity and artistic ambition. Menken's work not only serves the story but also challenges the listener to engage with the film on a deeper emotional level.Why Urban Audiences Should Revisit Disney's The Hunchback of Notre DameAs the Movie of the Year podcast episode illustrates, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is far more than just another entry in Disney's animated canon. Its unflinching exploration of religion, its daring embrace of adult themes, and its unparalleled musical score make it a film that demands to be revisited.Key Takeaways from the Podcast:The dual nature of faith as depicted in

Every four years it seems, we the people are told that we will face the most important election ever held in America, that for the President of the United States, and of course, the 435 representatives of the House in Congress, and as many as 35 U. S. Senators, in addition of course to state and local elections as well. EVERY FOUR YEARS!But many politicos, and even so very many Christian and evangelical leaders do state unequivocally that elections 2024 are THE MOST IMPORTANT ever held in the history of our great country. Franklin Graham is one of them. And so is Tony Perkins. And so is Brent Bozell of Media Research Council. And very passionately so is Dr. James Dobson, he of Family Talk ministries, along with his very own Gary Bauer and Michelle Bachman. It may very well be, my fellow Americans, the most important election year in the history of our great country and so I ask:DO YOU INTEND TO VOTE?And, as you vote, will you really know the candidates, the issues, what will happen if certain individuals are elected and will you render an:INFORMED VOTE?Will you?I for one, and so many others in the Crawford Broadcasting Company, say to you, our faithful and loyal listeners and the Christians who get daily value from our stations that:YOU MUST VOTE!I believe it is your duty as a Christian, and in the case of these elections, clearly your duty as an American citizen (a legal American citizen) to:VOTE.Again, I say unequivocally:YOU MUST VOTE! WILL YOU?America, says Franklin Graham, has drifted far from the biblical values that once stood as our rock-solid foundations. We have turned our back on God and the results have been devastating.Progressive, liberal thought and activism, says Graham, have so contaminated the mainstream of American life and culture that once unthinkable abominations such as same sex marriage, abortion on demand, and transgender advocacy have become dogma in one major party's platform! It is not difficult at all to identify to which party Graham refers. That is clearly the Democrat party, and the head of that Democrat ticket, Kamala Harris and indeed every bit as much so Tim Walz, the would-be Vice President, and so many others. That leads to the question, rightly posed:CAN ANY REAL CHRISTIAN VOTE FOR HARRIS-WALZ AND THE DEMOCRAT PARTY?The answer of course is a resounding:NO!Democrats champion government control, not only through a socialistic (socialism) approach to government, but even in some extreme ways to the brutal Marxism itself. Democrats are by no means persuaded by the realistic and right-on philosophy of Winston Churchill, Great Britain's great Prime Minister who said:“SOCIALISM IS THE PHILOSOPHY OF FAILURE, THE CREED OFIGNORANCE, AND THE GOSPEL OF ENVY.”And more from Churchill:“THE INHERENT VIRTUE OF SOCIALISM IS THE EQUAL SHARING OFMISERIES!”The socialistic approaches of the Democrats and Harris-Walz will lead America down the path of socialism and worse in the four years to come if they are elected.Harris is an avowed, open, fully supportive advocate of absolutely no restrictions of any kind by federal, state, or local governments, on:ABORTION.Democrats do not want to leave abortion decisions to the states but wish the codification of the old Roe v. Wade so that, as binding federal legislation, it is the law of the land, and applicable in every state, all 50 states! That indeed is more evidence that no thinking, caring, spiritual, born-again Christian can vote for Harris, is it not? As US Senator, Harris was rated by GovTrack as “the most liberal senator, of all 100 senators,” THE MOST LIBERAL! Harris voted in favor of legal infanticide, she vowed to force taxpayers to fund abortion, she believes that a religious test should be applied to judicial and supreme court nominees. She sponsored the unbelievably radical EQUALITY ACT, which in many ways would put an end to religious freedom in America, she promoted legal prostitution. Harris opposed homeschooling and school choice legislation, she fully supported Planned Parenthood, and Harris openly lobbied for girl's restrooms, locker rooms, showers, sports and even women's prisons to be open to biological men. So, the question is posed again:CAN ANY THINKING, CARING, TRULY BORN-AGAIN CHRISTIAN VOTE FOR HARRIS-WALZ?So, if we the people, the Christian people, the real Christian people that is, wish to be the SALT AND LIGHT which our Lord tells us we must be, then we cannot vote for Harris. It seems as though our only choice is to vote for Donald Trump and JD Vance as President-Vice President, and republicans who are far more likely to uphold traditional American and Christian values.Harris and Walz are major proponents of the:EQUALITY ACT.This brutal act, if passed, would allow male-bodied transgender women (biological males) to utilize women's private spaces such as bathrooms, locker rooms, shelters, and participate in women's sports and sports leagues. Employers would be forced to provide healthcare insurance coverage for hormone treatment and sex-reassignment surgery for individuals with so-called gender dysphoria. Parents would be federally banned from seeking counseling for their children struggling with unwanted same-sex attraction or gender confusion.If Harris-Walz are elected, this brutal, freedom-extinguishing act may very well become law, and every Christian and Christian family will be subject to its horrible terms and conditions. This is yet another reason why no thinking, caring, real, true-born-again Christian can vote Democrat and absolutely cannot vote for Harris-Walz.Here the words of the one-of-a-kind BILLY GRAHAM:“WE WORSHIP THE GODS OF SECULARISM AND MATERIALISM. GOD IS DISPLEASED, AND I WARN YOU THAT HIS ANGER IS BEING KINDLED.”Boy, is it ever. The forces of secularism, radical, ultra-progressive, socialistic secularism are the leading, driving force in our great country. And, that is so because WE THE CHRISTIAN PEOPLE simply do not step up, STAND FOR THE RIGHT AND TRUE MORALITY, and do everything in our power to elect right thinking men and women who will govern this great country and us with it. We have indeed lost our right to ask:GOD BLESS AMERICA.Perhaps our only prayer is:GOD HELP, GOD SAVE AMERICA!But if we the people don't stand for what is right, and for Christian values and morality, no matter the cost, we can not expect the intervention of our God, and we will lose the America we true citizens of this republic and our freedoms have long-since taken for granted.It is, I and so many others firmly believe, our duty, and especially our duty not only as citizens but Christians, to:VOTE.You must vote, and you must vote in an informed, intelligent, issue-oriented way.If you are a Christian, a real true born-again, God-fearing and believing Christian, can you in good conscience vote for Harris-Walz, can you?

Yes, but only if you're listening.  Life creates a static that can get in the way of communication with God.  A strong pathway or signal is essential in making change happen.  Don't try it on your own.  Simply, touch base with God.

Pastor Adam Martin makes his first appearance on the Seacoast Podcast, it's been long overdue. He delivered a sermon four days ago on Sunday (August 25th), "God Help Me With My Faith."  On this bonus episode, he's in studio with Jack Hoey III (Creative Director, Pastor, host of show), Joey Svendsen (host of the show, Pastor) and Geoff Reppard (Pastor of Seacoast Small Groups, also first time on the podcast) to talk faith, doubt, certainty and disbelief.  Other questions are discussed: Has western Christianity taken the "personal relationship" component of faith too far and perhaps have not enough emphasis on the beauty and truth of "the Faith" being originally birthed into "the church" (a group of people) and never starting with "one person having his or her own personal faith?"  If painful seasons are "building blocks" of faith, are they also good? Does God give these seasons as gifts?  Pastor Adam explains the important distinction between "God causing" and "God ordaining," especially in regards to growth from suffering.  Lastly, the four reflect on the importance of experiencing God through the Holy Spirit while also discussing how an overemphasis on "personal feeling" and a zealous drive for experiences can both be counterproductive or even harmful to one's faith. The guys today can't answer emphatically on a lot of these questions, but they can ponder on it all and certainly give their best guesses; after many years of seeking God, a lot of invested prayer (Adam more than others, very likely. holier, tad older), and a lot of scripture reading. Certainly each having his own experiences with past seasons of doubt and unbelief and now each in a season of peace and belief in the core essentials of the Gospel.    Stay ConnectedWebsite | Facebook Discussion Page I YouTubeOn this EpisodeAdam Martin / InstagramGeoff Rappard / Facebook Jack Hoey III / Instagram Joey Svendsen, host / InstagramExecutive Producer: Josh SurrattProducer/Editors: Joey SvendsenSound Engineers/Editor: JT Price and Katelyn Vandivertheme song: Joel T.

Send me a Text Message!When I was a kid, church wasn't terrible but it wasn't at the top of my wanna-do list. I was always looking for reasons not to go. You name the excuse I tried to use it. And one of the things my father never said was, "Hey it's up to you. As long as you are in my house, you decide if church is for you." Nope he never said that! Whenever I said, "Do we have to go to church again, he always said, "No we don't have to go to church. We get to go to church." So I showed him. I became a  pastor.  And what I am today is at least in part because my mom and dad were committed to a mission that went beyond our comfort. They were committed to the mission of seeing the gospel take root in and shape my life. So let me ask you that question, "What's your mission in life?"Paul's prayer in Colossians 1 is a good mission-prayer!

Pastor Joel Delph delivered a sermon two days ago on Sunday (August 18th), "God Help Me With My Finances."  He's in studio with Seacoast Chief Financial Officer, Nick Johnston as well as Seacoast member and professional financial advisor, Rich Young.  With host Joey Svendsen, the three continue the conversation on finances that Joel started in his sermon this past Sunday.   The four talk a bit about Seacoast's financial strategies, whether tithing is "Old Testament theology," the deeper heart change one can experience during seasons of financial hardship, how to "give responsibly," and there's even some sound advice for parents who want to instill in their kids, good financial stewardship. Nick and Rich bring to the table helpful insight on finances from a wealth of knowledge and from extensive professional experience and personal practice.  Most importantly they demonstrate lives of astute personal financial stewardship with "living out the gospel" being the goal (i.e. increasing generosity is the goal).

By Greg Thomas in Cleveland, OH - July 20, 2024 - The secular proverb that God helps those who help themselves has been taught for a very long time; what does the Bible teach about it? We learn from God's Word that we should truly do all that we are capable of doing, while also seeking God's guidance and intervention and He will respond with His grace to help us in the ways which only He can.
