In this Henshin Men re-upload, you'll hear Jake's first podcast appearance. He joined Nate to discuss Masked Rider: The First (aka Kamen Rider: The First), which is now getting a blu-ray re-release from Media Blasters. The first episode of our Kamen Rider Faiz coverage is coming soon! The original shownotes: Henshin Men goes from a reimagining of the original Kamen Rider (1971) to a reimagining of Kamen Rider Black and now back to what Nathan says is the superior reimagining of the 1971 series and manga: Masked Rider: The First (2005). He's joined by aspiring podcaster Jake Hambrick to dive into this unique Japanese superhero film. It borrows more from Shotaro Ishinomori's manga than the TV series, so it lacks tropes like the iconic henshin pose, and has an almost Sam Raimi Spider-Man flair to it. What truly makes it stand out, though, is its theme: the power of beauty. Throw in some great practical effects and solid fight scenes, and you have a winner in the remake debate. This episode was edited by Christopher Riner with Nathan Marchand. Follow Henshin Men on Twitter: @HenshinMenPod.

Have we forgotten how to honor? In a culture where criticism is loud and respect is rare, Jesus' own experience in His hometown reminds us how honor—or the lack of it—can affect miracles, relationships, and faith itself.In this powerful message, we explore Mark 6:1-6, where Jesus is rejected not by strangers, but by the very people who should've honored Him most. We unpack what true honor looks like, why it matters in the Kingdom of God, and how reclaiming this “lost art” can unlock the supernatural in our lives.
On Sunday, we continue answering the question, “Who needs a doctor?” We will focus on Jesus having no walls up in how He related to people who were different from Him, being intentional in how He loved and related to them.
On Sunday, we shift our gears to a series titled, “Who Needs a Doctor?” Over the next three weeks, we will discuss God’s heart for our neighbors in the community and what His call is on our lives as a people empowered by His Spirit.
Father's Day is upon us, and Sunday we plan to celebrate them appropriately. Whether you are a biological, adoptive, step, foster, grand, or spiritual dad, we have planned our day around you.We will focus our teaching this weekend on several questions from our Q&A series that definitely impact our men: How do we handle habitual sin, what about church and politics, and how do we finish well in life? Don't miss out!
"Why does God not answer my prayer offered up in faith?” This Sunday, we will look at this question as well as discuss Pentecost Sunday, which represents the end of the Easter season. Many call it the birthday of the church. This weekend, we will discuss what that means for us and what it means for the church.
Homosexuality…On Sunday, we take the next step in our Q&A Series as we focus on a subject of great importance both inside and outside the church. We will discuss our convictions and beliefs, how those shape our actions, and who Jesus is calling us to be in the lives most impacted by this topic.
This Sunday, we slow down and spend our morning in extended worship and prayer. We will focus on inviting Jesus to awaken and move us in every area of our lives and invite Him to move in the life of our church.

Sunday, we continue our Q&A series focusing on parenting and answering the questions: How independent should we raise our children to be, should reading the Bible be boring, and more. Don’t miss out and invite your friends!
Sunday, we get to celebrate moms, and we will do it by taking our next step in our Q&A series. We will be answering questions that we feel impact all people, but questions that specifically impact women of every age! What is so important about our bodies? Is there a place for women in church leadership? How do I read scripture in a way that makes sense? As parents, how do we raise independent children who still honor parents? It’s going to be a great time! Don’t miss out!
Join us this Sunday as we lean into the heart of God for the vulnerable. We’ll look at how God moves toward the broken, welcomes the outcast, and fights for those who can’t fight for themselves—and what that means for us as His people. Whether you're in a hard season yourself or wondering how you can make a difference, this message is for you. Come ready to be encouraged, challenged, and reminded that God’s heart beats for restoration—and He invites us to be part of it.
On Sunday, we begin our multi-week Q&A series, where we focus on questions you have about life, theology, etc., that you may be wrestling with. We will talk about a lot in the next few weeks, and we need your questions! This week, we will focus on how to thrive in an environment that’s hostile to Christianity, what is so special about Gen Z, and the keys to a healthy marriage! We will just scratch the surface with our answers, but we are hoping it will act as a launching pad for your own study!
On Sunday, we have the joy of celebrating the resurrection story of Jesus. It’s not just a story from history, but a story we are living and experiencing the fruit of every day. We will focus our attention on Paul’s teaching to the Corinthians and the impact the resurrection has on every part of our life and our faith. For without the resurrection, according to Paul, our lives are pointless!

As we honored Dr. King yesterday, we sit with the weight of this moment - stepping into another Trump presidency. Many of us remain committed to working towards a country rooted in collective liberation. Mom and I decided to root our discussion around Dr. King legacy, and his last book, Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community? In this two part conversation, we chat with three phenomenal women, Rev. Amanda Hambrick Ashcraft, writer, organizer, speaker, and Consulting Minister for Justice & Community Organizing at Middle Church, the founder of Raising Imagination, Avril Somerville, writer poet, and author of A Journey Of Life On PURPOSE, and Yaa Abbensetts-Dobson, writer and author (Departure Story), editor, entrepreneur and founder of Spoken Black Girl, and host of The Healing Entrepreneur Podcast. Together we unpack - building beloved community, why the church must divest from the false ideology of white supremacy, continually organizing for collective liberation, decolonizing, resisting the rise of global fascism, standing in active intersectional solidarity with all who are oppressed (because of race, disability, sexuality, gender, gender identity, etc.) the importance of soul work, and the many ways our faith in God, and creativity can propel us forward (Micah 6:8). Rev. Amanda is passionate about the intersections of race, faith, politics, and parenting and having conversations that move us towards a liberated society. She has presented nationwide on topics including systemic injustice, religion, raising white children as anti-racist, and involving young children in advocacy. You can learn more about her work here.

This Sunday, we will continue our 21 days of intentional prayer, where we “consecrate” ourselves for the purposes of God!
2025 is upon us, and we want to start the year out right by setting our gaze on Jesus! This Sunday, we will focus our attention on the next 21 days, an intentional season of prayer, where we “consecrate” ourselves for the purposes of God!
This is the last Sunday before Christmas, the day we celebrate the Advent of Love, the driving force behind Jesus coming to earth. Understanding and grabbing hold of this truth can change everything in life…if we let it!
Sunday we celebrate the Advent of Joy. We will look at it through an honest lens, recognizing that joy oftentimes feels distant and far away… even though it is ALWAYS present with us! How do we connect to it? What are we missing?
This Sunday is the first Sunday of Advent. It will be a time to slow down and ask God to awaken us to the hope found in Him in this season. If you feel in need of an awakening, if you feel the need of hope in a difficult season, or if you feel like something just isn’t right in your life, I want to invite you to come this Sunday and ask God to open your eyes to see Him in ways you haven’t seen Him in a long time!
God designed us to do life together, just as Jesus did with His closest friends. Living in community is a practice God invites us into because of the way it shapes and impacts us. On Sunday, we will discuss the why and the how, as we take one step closer to becoming apprentices of Jesus!
In our study, Practicing the Way, this week is crucial as we strategize and develop a plan for our spiritual formation, building on the practices we've explored over the past six weeks. In doing this, we dedicate our best energies to the thing we love most, which is relationship with Jesus and becoming more like Him.
Our walk with Jesus would be so much easier if we didn’t have sin to contend with. We all know the inner struggle when we’re faced with thoughts or ideas that go against what we believe to be true or hinder the steps we should be taking in life. When we take a wrong step, we often feel shame, as if walls have been erected in our hearts between us and God. This Sunday, we’ll explore the practice God created to conquer sin and its impact on our lives—the practice of confession. Don’t miss this conversation; it could bring the freedom you've been longing for.
This Sunday, we take our next step in the "Practicing the Way" series. We will be focusing on finding God in pain and suffering. This is an area the church has struggled in, and learning to connect with him in these moments is vital to our ongoing spiritual growth. Hope to see you here on Sunday!
On Sunday we turn our attention to “The Practices," the very things Jesus gave himself to that shaped his life and his relationship with the Father. In learning and practicing them ourselves, the hope is that we become like Jesus, go the rhythm of Jesus, and experience the fullness of Jesus.
Andy and Mon-Chaio explore the concept of growth and improvement, focusing on technical leadership. They learn about deliberate practice and discuss its role in enhancing skills for leaders. Scrabble players help them identify practices that lead to skill improvements and contrasting methods that don't, such as casual reading or working. The discussion wanders to how these findings relate to NBA coaching and engineering leadership. By the end, listeners will understand why deliberate practice, reflection, and handling high-stakes situations are essential for leaders aiming to improve their skills.

This Sunday, we will begin our new series called "Practicing the Way". It will be an important conversation around what it means to be an active follower of Jesus, a true apprentice who is with Jesus, who learns from Jesus, and does what Jesus does.
On Sunday, we step into week five of our Freedom series. We will focus on three core lies each of us struggle with that are birthed from the primary lie we talked about two weeks ago that leads to all sin... God is not enough. Our goal is to expose the lies, step into truth, and gain deeper freedom in every aspect of life!
On Sunday, we pause to talk about the power of shame that keeps many from stepping into the freedom available to us in Jesus and embracing our true identity as God’s children and friends. We will talk about it in light of the three cultural issues we have looked at. Money and finances, image and reputation, sex and love, and steps we can take to say yes to how Jesus views us.
Viewer Discretion is Advised On Sunday, we will continue our conversation about God‘s desire to bring freedom versus enslavement. Our focus will be on God’s gift of sex and the perversion of it in the world which leads many to spiritual bondage. I’ve invited Taylor Chastain to be part of the conversation to help us walk through a biblical journey of Gods gift, the impact of the fall and God’s desire for redemption.
This Sunday is a unique one. First, I get to invite Jamar and Elizabeth Cossick to share about two key cultural struggles that can lead to spiritual slavery…money and personal image. Second, we will end service hearing from all of our ministry leads and ways you can get connected at Vintage. You won’t want to miss it!
On Sunday, we shift our focus to the heart of the good news of Jesus…God’s power to bring freedom to all who believe! With our focus on freedom, we will also focus on the trappings of our culture that work to steal our freedoms and how we need to attack them! Our focus will be Galatians chapters 5 and 6.

This Sunday, we will take some time to look at our namesake verse, Acts 2:42. It is a foundational verse that speaks volumes about who we are at Vintage and who we are always aspiring to be as a church family. It also speaks to the expectations we can have of one another and the expectations we should expect others to have of us. This Sunday, we will unpack this verse and how we need to engage it once again to be the church God has called us to be.
