Podcasts about pastor j

Pastor J.D. teaches about a defining feature of those who follow Jesus: They care for the vulnerable, the weak, the helpless, and the forgotten. Followers of Jesus care for the vulnerable and the helpless because, before God, we are vulnerable and helpless, too.

When we evaluate why many people aren't generous, it's probably not because they're selfish. More likely, they're battling either fear or pride (or maybe both). In this week's message from 2 Corinthians 9, Pastor J.D. shows us how these things can prevent us from being generous, as well as the remedy. By trusting and obeying God as it relates to our finances, we will experience the joy that results from seeing him use these resources to build his kingdom. And we will proclaim, as Paul did, “Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!”

In this message, Pastor J.R. emphasizes the importance of winning spiritual battles in the mind by relying on God's power rather than human effort. He emphasizes that often times we stress about our problems because we put God in a box and make our worries bigger than our perception of God. Through the teachings of Paul in 2 Corinthians, he encourages us to not be led by fear but be led by the Holy Spirit. In doing so, our perspective changes and we start to realize that God is bigger than our worries.

Pastor J.D. talks about the cosmic struggle between God and Satan, a struggle that bears on our lives every day. We'll see that apart from God's power, even the best attempts to change are ultimately doomed to fail.

Pastor J.D. teaches about a paralytic man and his friends, all of whom were desperate to get close to Jesus. But as we'll see in this story, as eager as they were to get to Jesus, Jesus was even more eager to extend forgiveness to them.

Name 5 things you are thankful for, write them down in your Gratitude Journal. Thank God! Now, tell someone. Yes, often we thank God for His good gifts but we don't tell anyone. This week we are going to share what God has been doing in our lives and thank God for all His wondrous works. Pastor J will be challenging us to share our Gratitude Journal with our friends so we can thank God together. And as we share it with a friend we get to share gratitude with someone, multiplying gratitude.Recorded live at Word of Life Church in Le Sueur, Minnesota, on Sunday, November 9, 2025, Pastor Jason Lang preaching.Powered by Restream https://restream.io/

In this message, Pastor John takes us back to the Mount of Transfiguration in Matthew 17 and connects it to the Great Commission in Matthew 28. On one mountain, the Father says, “Listen to Him.” On the other, the risen Christ commands, “Go and make disciples.”Between those two mountains lies the heartbeat of the Christian life — to listen to Jesus, follow Him, and help others do the same.Join us as we explore what it means to move from hearing His Word to obeying His call — from admiring His glory to joining His mission.Mission Church — www.missionlasvegas.com

Let's face it: It's hard to talk about money. But what if we reoriented our perspective on it? In fact, what if we reoriented our entire lives in response to the grace that God has shown us? In this week's message from 2 Corinthians 8, Pastor J.D. explains the Apostle Paul's reasons for wanting the Corinthian church to be generous, as well as some obstacles that often sabotage good intentions. We have such a kind, generous God, and in the end, the only right response is for our own generosity to overflow to those around us.

In this message, Pastor J.R. teaches that life's events may be out of our control, but we can always choose how we respond to them by changing our “lens.” He uses Paul's imprisonment in Philippians 1:12–14 as an example of viewing hardship as an opportunity to advance the gospel rather than as a setback. In this message, Pastor J.R. outlines three practical ways to “change the lens," which emphasizes that our perspective determines our experience and if we look for God's goodness, we'll see it even in difficult times.

In a world filled with endless noise and distraction, God calls us to something deeper — to behold His glory and listen to His voice. In this message from Matthew 17:1–8, we look at the Transfiguration of Jesus and see the beauty, holiness, and compassion of the Son of God. The same voice that thundered from heaven still speaks today — inviting us to quiet our hearts, trust His Word, and see Jesus alone.Mission Church — www.missionlasvegas.com

A humiliating arrest on a college visit. A long drive home with a father's hard words. And then a student camp where the gospel finally clicked. That sequence didn't just clean up a teenager's weekends—it set the course for a pastor, a church plant that grew from a living room to multiple campuses, and a family devoted to helping others meet Jesus in everyday moments.We sit down with Pastor Jonathan  "Pastor J" Howes to trace the arc from party culture to purposeful living. He explains how a single verse—“If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation”—became a new identity, and how discipleship through sports gave him a model to follow on ordinary days. We unpack the question so many wrestle with: How do you really know you're going to heaven? Pastor J lays out a clear, biblically grounded assurance rooted in grace, not a life scorecard, and shows why that security matters for mental health, resilience, and joy.From there, we get practical. You'll hear the three pillars that keep faith strong: join a Christ‑centered church, open the Bible daily, and commit to a small group that practices honest accountability. Pastor J shares his group's “stay in the fire” rule and how simple daily check‑ins keep the flame alive. We also talk about Spiritual Moments, the devotional book he co‑wrote with his wife Jennifer, built to help families reclaim quiet, unhurried conversations around Scripture with icebreakers, short teachings, and prayer prompts. And we end with a challenge from Joshua 3: most moves of God start when we get our feet wet. If you've been waiting on certainty, this is your nudge to take the next step—invite, lead, serve—and trust God to meet you in motion.If this conversation encouraged you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs hope, and leave a quick review so more people can find the Road to Redemption.

In this message, Pastor J.R. encourages us to break free from negative mental patterns that lead to lies and instead build new ones grounded in truth. He warns that both culture and personal thoughts can be weaponized by the enemy to spread false narratives that trap the mind in fear, insecurity, and deception. Pastor J.R. contrasts worldly messages—such as those that label Christian conviction as hate—with God's truth that renews the mind and brings freedom. He emphasizes that culture and thoughts are never neutral, urging believers to align their thinking with God's Word rather than societal influences. Ultimately, he reminds us that God's truth is our spiritual weapon that can demolish strongholds, set captives free, and empower us to live with faith and victory.

As we continue our “In Step” series through the book of Luke, Pastor J.D. teaches what it means to “live ready” for Jesus' return. Are we awake to the task Jesus left for his church, or are we asleep at the wheel?

As we continue our “In Step” series through the book of Luke, Pastor J.D. preaches about a sickness that most of us have, but few of us realize—the sickness of greed.

It's a universal experience: going through suffering but struggling to understand the “why” behind it. In the Apostle Paul's case, much of the reason behind his suffering was found in his subsequent ability to comfort others in similar situations. In this week's message from 2 Corinthians 1, Pastor J.D. helps us see what Paul learned about God's faithfulness through his pain. As we learn more about the character of God through our own suffering, we too will gain a testimony that speaks volumes to the unbelieving world.

Pastor J.D. dives into one of Jesus' most recognized parables. It's a story about two men who built identical houses—with tragically different results. The only difference? Their foundation.

Pastor J.D. encourages us with the truth that no matter where we find ourselves, our faith can be used to glorify God and point others to the gospel.

When life feels unbearable and God seems silent, where do we turn? In this message from Psalm 42–43, Pastor John invites us to pause—to be honest about our weariness, and to rediscover the hope that comes from trusting in God's steadfast love. Through stories of deep faith and real struggle, we learn how to fight for joy, anchor our souls in God's promises, and find peace even in the valley.Mission Church — www.missionlasvegas.com

Daniel's story reveals what unwavering faith looks like in practice. At 85 years old, serving under the Medo-Persian empire, Daniel maintained such integrity that his enemies couldn't find any fault with his character or work. When they devised a trap through a royal decree forbidding prayer to anyone but the king, Daniel refused to compromise. He continued his daily prayer routine, facing Jerusalem three times a day, choosing conviction over convenience. God miraculously protected him in the lion's den, demonstrating that faithful obedience is never in vain. Daniel's example points us to Jesus Christ, the Lion of Judah, who has already defeated our spiritual enemy and calls us to stand firm in faith regardless of the cost.https://www.ankenyfree.church

Pastor J. Bryant Lagoe Wednesday Evening 10/15/25

In this episode, Pastor J.D.  discusses a question many church leaders face: Should pastors be more political from the pulpit?

In this sermon from Pastor John, we explore how Jesus places two things before His disciples: a set of keys and a cross. He gives His Church real authority—but then calls us to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and follow Him. Because life in the Kingdom isn't about grasping for control, but surrendering to the King. We naturally reach for the keys... but hesitate at the cross. Yet Jesus shows us that true life is found not in saving ourselves, but in laying everything down for His sake.Mission Church — www.missionlasvegas.com

The fall of Babylon in 539 B.C. reveals timeless truths about pride and divine judgment. King Belshazzar's arrogant feast, using sacred temple vessels to mock God, led to supernatural writing on the wall declaring his kingdom's end. Despite knowing his grandfather Nebuchadnezzar's humbling by God, Belshazzar hardened his heart in pride. Daniel interpreted the mysterious words as God's final judgment - the king had been weighed and found wanting. That very night, Belshazzar died and his kingdom fell, demonstrating that every heart will ultimately be measured by God's eternal standard.https://www.ankenyfree.church

What does a bold, faithful witness to Jesus look like in 2025? After all, we're living in an age where Christianity is increasingly viewed as a problem, even an obstacle to be removed. In this week's message from Jeremiah 29, Pastor J.D. helps us see that we have a vital part to play in the renewal of our city. As we do our jobs with excellence, integrity, and grace, we not only reflect the gospel, but we ultimately display a foretaste of the world as God intended it to be.

The final chapters of the book of Revelation present the end of the world as we know it—but there's also a glorious beginning. In this week's message from Revelation 21–22, Pastor J.D. walks us through the vision of a new heaven and a new earth described by the Apostle John. The fact that God will once again dwell with his people should cause all of us to rejoice. But the fact that those who reject God will not experience this reunion with him should motivate us to share the gospel with urgency, inviting people to put their faith in the God who delights in making all things new.

The gospel is beautiful for so many reasons, but one of them is its power to unite people from different cultures, family backgrounds, and circumstances. As we come together for Church at the Dome this weekend, Pastor J.D. shows the power of the gospel at work through the stories of three very different people in Acts 16. Whether you're a seeker, a cynic, or something in between, the resurrected Jesus meets you exactly where you are and offers true hope and freedom.

It has been a few days since Charlie Kirk was brutally assassinated, and we continue to learn more details. Since then, we've seen an outpouring of faith and organization.
