God's commandments not to steal or lie are not just about behavior—they're about shaping a community of trust, generosity, and truth. These commands protect relationships, promote justice, and call us to reflect God's character. When we steal, we say God hasn't given us enough. When we lie, we say God can't be trusted with the truth. But Jesus invites us to live differently—with open hands and honest hearts.Pastor Wade InnFriday April 6, 2025 Live at 7:00 PM

In this final week of the RelationShift series, we focus on the balance between forgiveness and reconciliation. Joseph's story offers a powerful example of how to navigate the complexities of broken relationships. As we see in Joseph's life, forgiveness is immediate and unconditional—it is about releasing the offense to God and letting go of bitterness. However, reconciliation is different. While forgiveness is given freely, reconciliation is conditional and requires repentance, change, and rebuilding trust over time. Pastor Wade and Rae Inn Friday September 27 2024 Live at 7:00 PM

This podcast is personal in a very real way. John Honold has been a close friend for just under four decades.I met him as a cocky, even arrogant, 20-year-old who informed me, “I hope you don't mind, but I knock off your sermons each Thursday under a tree at Windward Community College.”He was reteaching my Sunday messages in a microchurch he'd started on campus. I responded, “Keep it up, and you'll become our college pastor.” He did. And he married Brenda Ching, one of the original 30 people to move from California to plant the church.After serving as College Pastor, Youth Pastor and our Exec for over a decade, we launched him to plant a Hope Chapel in Oahu's “Second City,” Kapolei. It was a tossup as to which of us should plant the new church—me with a built-in audience from our daily radio broadcasts or John, who might reach a younger audience. He won the coin toss, and soon 700+ people met in various borrowed spaces. They multiplied new congregations from that base in Hawaii, Okinawa, Thailand and The Philippines.This episode is about church multiplication, an enduring friendship and how to follow the Holy Spirit in a way that parallels building sidewalks where people trample the grass on a college campus.Today John leads a prevailing model church (which both shrunk and grew after COVID) that operates as a hub for twelve microchurches—and he's paid a full-time salary to boot. Journey Church Network Hawaii has cracked the code for mixing what worked in the past with the future many envision.Did I mention that they support ministries in Okinawa, Mainland Japan and across the African Continent? John is also consulting with the oldest, and perhaps most famous, church that started in the “Kingdom of Hawaii.” They're bringing back the fire of the original vision to cover the islands with the gospel.If you're trying to understand the implications of microchurch on the congregation you lead, this will aid your quest.

In our last episode, you heard from each of the seven Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Centers across the western U.S., from San Diego to Salem, Oregon, to Kapolei, Hawaii. It was 20 years ago that the first Kroc Center opened in San Diego, California. The 12-acre, 132,000 square-foot facility was a realization of Joan Kroc's dream for all people to have recreational, educational and cultural arts opportunities.   And just under a year before it opened, Tim and Cindy Foley were appointed its administrators, just as the foundation was being poured. Today, Lt. Colonel Cindy Foley is Divisional Commander of The Salvation Army in the Northwest Division and Lt. Colonel Tim Foley is the Divisional Leader for Officer Development. Back then, they were given the job to create the program and business structure—really, the template for what the Kroc Centers would become across the nation. The Foleys are on the show today to give us a window into that year. To share the stories of working things out, what it was like to know Joan Kroc and how it felt to open the center on that day in June 2002. Plus how the experience changed them and their ministry.

Twenty years ago, the first Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center opened in San Diego, California. It was a realization of Joan Kroc's dream for all people to have recreational, educational and cultural arts opportunities.  During her final visit to the center before her death, Joan Kroc, the widow of McDonald's founder Ray Kroc, said “The reality of what the Kroc Center has become to San Diego is beyond my imagination.”  In October 2003, she left a $1.5 billion bequest to The Salvation Army to build similar community centers around the country. The result is twenty-six Kroc Centers—a network of state-of-the-art community centers that provide children and families with opportunities to both discover and develop their passions and talents within their own neighborhood, just as Joan Kroc dreamed. To help us celebrate this 20th anniversary of the first Kroc Center in San Diego, I'm joined in this episode by a local representative of each of the seven Kroc Centers in the western U.S. They will introduce themselves and share an inside look at the unique offerings at their Kroc Center.  So, allow me to introduce to you today the Kroc Centers in San Diego; San Francisco; Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; Salem, Oregon; Phoenix; Kapolei, Hawaii; and Suisun City, California.  EPISODE SHOWNOTES: Read more.
