Podcasts about life in the spirit

On Sunday, we jumped into our series in Romans 8 as Dave Dickinson led us through the first four verses. Dave highlighted that the life that Jesus offers is more than just the mechanical bios life. Dave unpacked that these opening verses are all about Freedom – true freedom – and Power  to live a full life. Romans 8:1-4 

What are you allowing to fill your life? Every person is born with a void that longs to be filled, but too often we look to temporary things for lasting fulfillment. In this powerful message, we explore what it truly means to be filled with the Holy Spirit and why God's presence is the only thing that can satisfy the deepest needs of the human heart.

Do you ever feel underpowered? Do you find yourself frustrated with all kinds of things you can't change about yourself, others, or in the circumstances around you? The Bible teaches we have a power source that's powerful beyond our wildest imagination. It's called the power of the Holy Spirit. What is the nature of that power? And how can we tap into it? That's what we'll discuss this Sunday in the third installment of our in-depth study of the Holy Spirit.

We start a 2 week series exploring how to live in the Spirit in our ordinary lives. (Galatians 5:16-23) Our message notes can be found here http://www.gatheringcafe.com/thewestsidegathering/podcasts/WSGmsg20260607_DavidM.pdf

The good heart is the basis for the work of the Spirit in fulfilling all righteousness.

One thing Paul makes very clear in Galatians is that we are free from the law. Free from judgement under the law and free from trying to win God's favour through the law. Does that mean we can just ignore it all together? That we can live however we want and God doesn't care at all? No, not at all. God rescues us from the present evil age, not just in the sense of forgiving us but by making us new and giving us a new love for Him and trust in Him. What does that new life look like however? We clearly aren't immediately perfect and this week we will see how God has planned for us to grow more and more like our saviour Jesus.Preacher: Jono Deenick Passage: Galatians 5:13-26 Support the show

Pastor Chad's sermon emphasized that the Christian life, from beginning to end, depends on the Holy Spirit rather than human effort. Using Galatians 5, Pastor Chad taught that believers are saved, sustained, transformed, and assured of their relationship with God through the Holy Spirit. He contrasted two ineffective approaches to life with God—religious self-righteousness and rebellious self-indulgence—explaining that both ultimately rely on self instead of God. True spiritual growth does not come from trying harder to overcome sin but from continually walking with the Holy Spirit, allowing Him to produce His fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, and self-control—in our lives. Pastor Chad concluded that lasting transformation happens through a daily relationship with God, as the Holy Spirit gradually shapes believers into the image of Christ.

The Holy Spirit blesses us with fruit in the life and humility in the heart.

Father Bill Carroll gives his sermon on the Day of Pentecost at Christ Church Cranbrook.

On Pentecost Sunday, Katy concludes our teaching series on the gifts of the Spirit by looking at the often misunderstood and sometimes intimidating gift of Tongues - giving us an accessible How, What & Why, and encouraging us all to eagerly desire this powerful spiritual gift.

This week Emily takes us through not one specific but an overview of all the gifts, including those often given less attention like "helping", "administration" and "mercy". Here we see that we all have something to contribute as we play our part in the renewal of the city.

Send us Fan MailRomans 7:1–6 — Dead to the Law, Alive in the Spirit Ken Corkins and pastor Rocky Ellison host “Pondering the Bible” (Season 18, Episode 15), continuing their study of Romans by covering chapter 7:1–6 (RSV). They discuss Paul addressing the Jew–Gentile conflict in the Roman church: Jews emphasize strict adherence to the law while Gentiles claim the Spirit makes the law unnecessary. Using Paul's marriage-and-death analogy, they explain that the law binds only while “alive,” and believers “die to the law” through Christ's crucifixion so they can belong to the risen Christ and bear fruit for God. They note the law exposes sin and can even arouse sinful desire, while the Holy Spirit leads positively into good behavior without discarding Scripture. They also explore how the same action can be sin in one situation but not another, then announce a break next week and a return in two weeks to finish Romans 7. 00:00 Welcome and Setup 00:35 Romans Seven Reading 01:49 Jews and Gentiles Clash 03:16 Law Ends at Death 06:10 Marriage Law Example 08:23 Intent Versus Rules 10:24 Died With Christ 14:06 Law Sparks Temptation 15:34 New Life in Spirit 18:13 Situational Sin Example 20:14 Next Episode and ClosingNEW!: Rate us at Podchaser  Find us at www.pondergmc.org. Feedback is welcome: PonderMethodist@gmail.com Music performed by the Ponder GMC worship team.Cover Art: Joe WagnerRecorded, edited and mixed by Snikrock

Life In The Spirit

Those who belong to Christ are no longer enslaved to fear and sin, but have been adopted as children of God through the Holy Spirit. As the Spirit leads, strengthens, and intercedes for believers, we are called to live in the freedom, hope, and assurance that belong to the sons and daughters of God.Time:MorningMinister:Rev. Daniel VenturaTexts:Romans 8:12–27Series:Pentecost Sunday

This Sunday we will launch an in-depth study of the so-called Third Person of the Trinity, i.e., the Holy Spirit. We'll begin by asking some basic questions like: Who or what is the Holy Spirit? How do I receive the Holy Spirit? And most importantly, why should I care? What's the big deal?

"Not every wilderness is Spirit-led..." If you're a seasoned Christian, you have likely heard lots of conversation about a "wilderness season." But how do we discern when the wilderness season is actually from God? Continuing our "Life in the Spirit" sermon season, Pastor Oscar Ortiz brings a word on what it means--and what it takes--to be Spirit-led.

Authentic stewardship is the humble act of planting our entrusted lives in the soil of faith — not burying them under the weight of bad belief, unholy fear, and idolatry — fueled by the realized identity of those chosen, adopted, and made co-heirs with Christ.

Over the course of time, you've likely heard lots of sermons naming various sins, but you've probably never heard one that digs deeper to actually thoughtfully explore: What is the definition of sin? In other words, what makes something a sin in the eyes of God? This Sunday we'll tackle that question -- and you're probably going to be surprised. This may be the most important sermon you've never heard.

"The purpose of God for you is change." Today, we are invited to consider a deeper kind of change—not a quick fix, but a life-long metamorphosis sparked by the Holy Spirit. In Romans 8 and Galatians 4, we explores what it means to live as children and heirs of God, and how God's Spirit actually forms us from the inside out. The Spirit is not a distant force, but is instead a personal presence — helper, counselor, advocate — who walks with us, prays with us, and leads us in daily steps.

Pastor Andrew Peterson preaches from Romans 8:1-11 on April 26, 2026.

On this weeks episode of BTG, Pastor Nate begins a new series, "Beyond the Sermon" with a message that will have us learning how to abide in the vine and allowing the Spirit to work through us to fulfill the sermon on the mount.Support the show

Week 3 of Life 2.0 answers the question: How do we live the new life Jesus gives us? While many people try to follow Jesus through sheer willpower, the Christian life was never meant to be lived that way. Through resurrection, God gives believers His Holy Spirit, whose power raised Jesus from the dead and now lives within His followers. The Spirit convicts us of sin, guides us into truth, and produces new character in our lives as we walk with Him. Rather than trying harder, we learn to keep in step with the Spirit by inviting His leadership, noticing His guidance, and following His promptings in everyday moments. Because of the resurrection, new life is not only forgiven—it is powered and led by the Holy Spirit. Passage: Romans 8:11-14; John 16:8-9, 13-14; Galatians 5:16-17 Speaker: David Wyman

Set Your Mind on the Things of the Spirit | Life in the Spirit, pt. 6   One of the keys to life in the Spirit is what we allow to fill and occupy our minds. The apostle Paul writes, "For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God."
