In this message from Matthew 14, Pastor Karl explores two seemingly separate events — the beheading of John the Baptist and the feeding of the five thousand — and reveals how they are deeply connected as a portrait of two contrasting kingdoms.Drawing on the parallel between Herod's banquet and Jesus's meal in the wilderness, Pastor Karl shows what sets the kingdom of the world apart from the kingdom of God: one ends in death, self-service, and corruption; the other in life, compassion, and abundance. Through the stories of Elijah, Elisha, and Moses, he demonstrates that the disciples had all the history they needed to trust Jesus in the moment — and yet, like us, they forgot.At the heart of this teaching is a simple but powerful truth: you are insufficient, but you are not useless. The kingdom of God doesn't have a supply problem — it has a distribution problem. God has never asked how much you have. He only asks what you have — and what you place in his hands, he multiplies.Discipleship, Pastor Karl argues, always involves cost, courage, compassion, commands, and cooperation. The good news is that the Good Shepherd is more than sufficient for all his sheep.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
In this episode of Noisy Narratives, we sit down with Cory Locke to hear the personal story of how he came to know Jesus — not just as a name he had heard, but as a Savior who changes everything. Cory shares honestly about the people, moments, and turning points that shaped his faith and helped him understand what it truly means to follow Christ. Cory talks about what it means to serve the church — not for recognition, but from a heart that loves God and loves people. Together, we explore what it looks like to care for others in practical ways, to show up when it's inconvenient, and to live out faith beyond Sunday mornings. Join us for a meaningful conversation about knowing God, loving others, and the quiet ways God works through willing hearts.
Peter is writing to the dispersed Christians in churches across what is now Turkey. A key theme is the fact that persecution should be expected as a result of living for Christ rather than following earthly desires. In Chapter 4 Peter mentions our distinctiveness in terms of praying diligently, loving one another deeply and showing hospitality to one another before turning to the topic of serving one another in the church.

If everyone served like you, where would the church be? Would it be thriving and filled with volunteers, or would it be struggling to make service happen?Our culture often leans into a "consumer" focused mindset where all we do is take... but what would happen if you started to give back to the church? To serve the people that you worship next to every weekend? Even if you've been attending for years and years, it's never too late to start.
