This week Dusty and Joseph examine Acts 5.

How many times should we forgive someone who has wronged us? In this message, Pastor Karl explores Jesus' powerful teaching in Matthew 18:21–35, revealing that forgiveness is not about keeping score—it's about reflecting the incredible mercy we've received from God.Through the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant, Pastor Karl explains the immeasurable debt of sin that Christ has forgiven and why that forgiveness transforms the way we respond to those who hurt us. Discover the difference between forgiveness and enabling harmful behavior, why forgiveness is central to life in God's Kingdom, and how releasing others from their debt brings freedom to our own hearts.Whether you're wrestling with past wounds, strained relationships, or the challenge of extending grace, this message offers biblical truth and practical encouragement to help you walk in the freedom Christ has made possible.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Teaching from 1 Timothy 1:12–20, Chrissy Cole examines how the gospel personally transformed Paul and how it should continue transforming us. When God's grace grips us, His mercy humbles us, and His goodness moves us to worship, we can stop living from guilt and self-effort and begin serving, growing, and sharing our testimony from the overflow of His grace.

Text:  Genesis 43   God's Providential Mercy Moves His People to Complete Surrender (Gen. 43:1-14) Jacob is forced to reckon with his fears and put his trust in God. Judah demonstrates sacrificial love for his family. We must respond to God's mercy with a surrendered trust in His providence.   God's Providential Mercy Places His People Under Abundant Grace (Gen. 43:15-34) Joseph's brothers are invited to Joseph's home and receive undeserved generosity at his table. As recipients of God's mercy, we can forgive those who sin against us (Eph. 4:31-32). Jesus invites sinners to repent and be reconciled at His table of grace (Luke 15:11-24).   Main Idea: God prepares the way for reconciliation through His providential mercy.  

His mercy never comes to an end. They are new every morning.

Have you ever wondered what should actually change after someone becomes a Christian?In this powerful overview of Romans 12, guest pastor Tim Gibson explains that the Christian life isn't driven by guilt or religious performance. It's driven by the overwhelming mercy of God.Because we've received mercy, everything changes. Our worship changes. Our minds change. Our relationships change. Our love for others changes. The mercy of God transforms every part of life.You'll discover: Why Romans 12 is the blueprint for the Christian life  The difference between God's mercy and God's grace  What it means to become a living sacrifice  How God transforms the way you think  Why spiritual gifts exist to serve others  How mercy changes the way we love, forgive, and respond to difficult people  Why Christians overcome evil with good If you've experienced God's mercy, your life should never be the same.Scripture: Romans 12

Teaching from June 24, 2026 by John Davis

We are saved and free only by the grace and mercy of God. God was the reason for the founding of our lands and by His grace He has preserved us for 250 years and only by His grace!

The mercy of God offers us forgiveness, friendship, and redemption.Subscribe to daily devotions e-mails: https://wcmin.us/ddsub

Despite our sinful nature, we are partakers of His mercy toward us through Jesus, and we are reminded to be merciful to others because He is merciful to us.

Part 2 of this sermon centers on the profound truth of God's mercy as revealed in Ephesians 2:1–6, emphasizing that all humanity was once dead in trespasses and sins, enslaved to a hostile spiritual force and consumed by self-centered desires. It draws a powerful analogy to the film Old Yeller, illustrating how sin is like a rabid disease—contagious, uncontrollable, and ultimately fatal without divine intervention. The message underscores that salvation is not earned but is a gift of grace through Christ's death and resurrection, which renews the believer and positions them in heavenly realms. The preacher calls the congregation to embrace their identity as redeemed individuals, not only to experience inner peace but to become active agents of mercy, sharing the gospel that rescued them. The tone is both urgent and hopeful, calling for personal repentance, spiritual awakening, and a renewed commitment to evangelism and holy living.

Ryan sits down with Jeff and Arlen to discuss Jonah 4 and the powerful conclusion of Jonah: Deep & Wide Mercy.Together they explore why the book ends with a question instead of an answer, how Jonah's anger reveals the condition of his heart, and why God's final words are meant to challenge readers as much as they challenged Jonah.The conversation looks at God's compassion for Nineveh, the repeated question “Is it right for you to be angry?”, and the ways prayer, worship, and Scripture help align our hearts with God's.Jonah's story ends without revealing his response, inviting each of us to answer God's question for ourselves.Main Passage: Jonah 4Series: Jonah: Deep & Wide MercyWeek: 4Host: RyanGuests: Jeff and Arlen

Paul opens this chapter with a dramatic expression of grief, like Moses before him, saying he would forfeit his own salvation if it meant his fellow Israelites would be saved. That alone should tell you how personal this gets. God chose Isaac over Ishmael, Jacob over Esau, and showed mercy to whom He would show mercy. The potter has authority over the clay, and that offends us because we want God to explain Himself. Yet, God demonstrates time and again that he is not only sovereign, but compassionate and merciful toward all people—Jew and Gentile.  The Rev. Doug Griebenaw, pastor and mission advocate at KFUO Radio, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Romans 9:1–33.  Why does doing the right thing sometimes feel impossible? Why do feelings of guilt follow us even when we've been forgiven? These aren't new questions. St. Paul wrote his letter to the Romans for a church he had never visited, and yet he addressed the struggles every Christian knows firsthand: the weight of the law, the persistence of sin, the sufficiency of what God has done in Christ. Romans covers enormous ground. Paul moves from the universal problem of sin through justification by faith, the role of baptism, the war between flesh and spirit, God's faithfulness to Israel, and the shape of life together in the body of Christ. There's a reason the Reformation was born in this letter. Join us on Thy Strong Word as we open up Romans, weekdays at 11am or on-demand anytime, at KFUO.org.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

In this episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen challenges young people to pray for revival, not merely as something God did in the past, but as something He still desires to do today. Reflecting on the history of revival in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, and the heart cry of Psalm 85:6, he reminds listeners that revival begins personally before it spreads corporately. True revival is not earned by human effort, but received through thirst, trust, humility, and dependence on the God who delights to revive His people. Topics Discussed The history of God's reviving work in places now spiritually forgotten The prayer of Psalm 85:6: “Wilt thou not revive us again?” Why young people should pray for revival in their school, youth group, church, and community The Welsh revival story and the reminder that “the revival is in here” The meaning of personal revival as Christ's abundant life in the believer Two essentials for personal revival: thirsting for God and trusting Him to work How revival produces rejoicing, truth, righteousness, and holiness from the inside out Why revival is not something we deserve, but a mercy God gives The importance of dealing honestly and biblically with sin A testimony of God moving in a Christian school camp and stirring a lifelong burden for revival The difference between simply “getting by” and living in the presence and power of God Key Takeaways Revival is not just a historical event to admire; it is a present need to pray for. Corporate revival begins with individual believers who are personally revived. A young person does not have to settle for dull, distracted, subnormal Christianity. Personal revival begins with a thirsty heart that wants God and a trusting heart that believes Him. Revival produces more than emotion; it produces truth, righteousness, holiness, and a passion for Christ. God's reviving work is an act of mercy, not something we earn or deserve. The presence of God changes everything. When God “steps in the room,” hearts are humbled, sins are confessed, burdens are born, and lives are changed. The right prayer is still, “Wilt thou not revive us again?” If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

Date: Wednesday, April 15th 2026 Speaker: Pastor Greg Hill Scripture: Deuteronomy 9:13-29

A sermon from Genesis 4:1-16.

In this tender and deeply pastoral message from Fire in Our Bones, Micah Hale calls believers back to the heart of the Beatitudes with Jesus' words, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.” He reminds us that true blessing is not found in prestige, control, or outward success, but in the deep, unshakable peace that comes from living near the Father. This peace is not fragile, borrowed, or dependent on circumstances. As Micah says, “No one can take my peace because they didn't give it to me,” and that peace becomes the mark of those who truly belong to God. With honesty, compassion, and spiritual clarity, Micah shows that peacemaking is not passive. It is forged in conflict, refined through mercy, and lived out in real relationships marked by offense, betrayal, misunderstanding, and reconciliation. He urges listeners not to react in the flesh, but to let the Holy Spirit heal what is broken so they can become people who carry peace into chaos. At the center of the message is a call to reflect the Father's heart, to become, in his words, “an expert in the mercy of God,” and to live as sons and daughters who leave a trail of peace, healing, and restoration wherever they go.

In this podcast, Pastor Justin continues breaking down our critical need to apply God's Word to our lives, this time highlighting the necessity of accepting and applying godly correction.Support the show

In saving us from sin Jesus does more than relieve us of an unpayable debt.  He actually pays the debt himself.   He buys us back, redeems us, with the price of his precious blood.  The wounds of Christ are thus mysterious sources of confidence and consolation for us, worthy of our continual contemplation. 

Episode Notes The last message in the life of David. Do you think God's punishment of people in the Bible seems harsh? Do you ever wonder why a God of love can be so angry? Do you ever question why sacrifices were necessary? Welcome to the last chapter of 2 Samuel.
