Podcasts about living faith

Welcome to the School of Ministry Podcast where we examine James' instruction that true faith is alive and visible: it produces works as evidence, not to earn salvation but to demonstrate it. Using Abraham and Rahab as examples, the episode explains how genuine belief is shown by obedience and a transformed life, calling listeners to be doers of the Word and allowing Christ to be seen within the Child of God's life.

College provides young adults opportunities to explore the larger world and get to know new people and experience new things. With that, many students drift away from the Catholic Faith while in school. However, a group of peers to hold each other accountable and provide motivation to grow in relationship with Jesus can help students thrive in college and go deeper in their faith. Connor Combs and Sebastian Fernandez, Summer Associates at the Catholic Apostolate Center, join this episode of On Mission with Chris Pierno, Sarah Scalfaro, and Fr. Frank Donio, S.A.C. to share how friends and accountability helped them remain and grow in their Catholic faith while studying in college.When arriving on a college campus, Catholic students usually have a choice: go to Mass or don't go to Mass? For many, this is the first time they will have this question posed to them. Connor and Sebastian share from their experience encountering that same question and what means were available to them that allowed them to grow in faith. For example, a good group of friends provided motivation and accountability to go to Mass, frequent the sacraments, and live a prayerful student experience. Making the conscious choice to attend a more religious institution helped maintain them in the context of the Catholic Faith. View Synod on Young People resources Related On Mission episodes:Living Faith on a Secular CampusCommunity LifeYoung SaintsSocial Media From the Ad Infinitum blog:Student LifeFriendship Check out the main Saints and Feast Days websiteDownload the App on the App Store or Google Play Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify On Mission is produced by the Catholic Apostolate Center.

This week we continue our teaching on faith and how it is a requirement as believers for us to be in faith and to trust the Lord.  God doesn't require us to be perfect, but He requires us to be in faith.  Some may be weaker in their faith, but those who are still must be in faith., Provers 3:5-6, Hebrews 4, Hebrews 10, Hebrews 11, Romans 14, Daniel 3

We're digging into the Bible's teaching on sex and gender—inside and outside the Garden of Eden - relating to transgender. We're asking foundational questions: Was humanity created androgynous? Does Genesis allow for more than two sexes? Is sexual difference a core part of the imago Dei? What does it mean that the man and woman were naked and felt no shame?Dr Rob Smith lectures at Sydney Missionary and Bible College and serves with Living Faith, a pastoral ministry of the Sydney Anglican Church caring for those navigating same-sex attraction or gender incongruence. Rob is the author of a new book The Body God Gives.Rob also spoke to us in February 2025 about the historic and cultural issues relating to the transgender, under the heading 'The Sexed body is the Gendered Self'.The Church Cothechurchco.com is a website and app platform built specifically for churches.

Big Idea: True faith requires us to reject favoritism and authentically love as Christ has loved us.

What causes conflict, chaos, and spiritual frustration—even among believers? In this convicting and hope-filled message from James 4, Pastor Jeremiah Genin uncovers the root issues of pride, selfish ambition, and worldliness that keep us from experiencing the fullness of life in Christ. But there's good news: there is a better way—the humble way. This message dives deep into the heart of surrender, revealing how true faith is expressed not just in words, but in a life laid down before God. Through repentance, prayer, and dependence on the Holy Spirit, we discover that God gives more grace to those who choose humility. He doesn't resist us—He longs for us. If you're looking for a church that prioritizes authentic faith, biblical teaching, and Spirit-filled living, Chapel Valley Church in Madison, WI welcomes you. This sermon answers: 1. Why do conflicts and spiritual frustration often arise among believers? 2. How does pride block the flow of God's grace in our lives? 3. What does it look like to walk in humility and live a faith that pleases God?

Scripture reminds us that real faith doesn't sit still: it moves, acts, and reveals itself in love. Be challenged to put faith into action. Pastor James walks us through James 2 with a message titled "Living Faith."

The book of James emphatically teaches that a living faith in a living God should be apparent in our living.

Big Idea: True faith is not just hearing God's Word but purposefully seeking to live it out.

Insights on attitude today from pastor Ray Bentley. What's the best attitude of the heart you can have? It's to have a merciful heart. Jesus was known for being merciful. He was known to the sinners as a friend of sinners because he was merciful. He got in trouble with the religious leaders for the same reputation being too mercy spread.

Albert Einstein said, make things as simple as possible, but no simpler. Today, pastor Ray Bentley makes the Christian life simple. If we would live by this one royal law to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, we wouldn't need all the other laws that there are. Basically, the reason we have so many laws is because nobody loves one another.

Big Idea: When facing temptation, trust in God's goodness and Word, and you will endure and overcome it.

This year marks the 1700th anniversary of the Nicene Creed—words spoken by billions of Christians across centuries and continents. In his new book, “We Believe: How the Nicene Creed can deepen your faith,” the Rev. Michael Carpenter shares how these words written in the 4th century aren't just ancient history, but also have the power … Continue reading "Ancient Words, Living Faith: The 4th century Nicene Creed in 2025"

Big Idea: Followers of Jesus are to joyfully persevere in their trials by faith and prayer, for they will be rewarded.

What does real, saving faith look like? In this impactful message from James 2, Pastor Jeremiah Genin unpacks the difference between a faith that is merely spoken—and a faith that is alive. “Living Faith” challenges us to move beyond religious titles and empty words into a life that actively reflects trust in Jesus through obedience, compassion, and spiritual growth. You'll learn how true faith is not only expressed through belief, but through action—good works that flow from a heart transformed by grace. This sermon also tackles the tension between faith and works, revealing how both are vital parts of our spiritual journey and identity in Christ. If you're searching for a Spirit-led, Bible-teaching church in Madison, WI that helps you grow in genuine relationship with Jesus, we invite you to join us at Chapel Valley Church. This sermon answers: What is the difference between dead faith and living faith according to Scripture? How do faith and good works work together in the life of a believer? Why is obedience a necessary expression of genuine trust in Jesus? From Chapel Valley Church in Madison, WI. Join us as Pastor, Jeremiah Genin, shares the word of God.
