There's only one gospel—one incredible, life-changing, Jesus-centred message. But there are heaps of ways to explain it! And sometimes different people need to hear it in different ways to understand why they need Jesus.Even in the New Testament, we see it expressed in different ways. Paul puts it like this in 2 Timothy 2:8:‘Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel.'And in 1 Corinthians 2:2, he says:‘For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.'Same gospel. Different ways of putting it.And that's what this series is about! We want to introduce you to a range of gospel tools—different ways of explaining this same, unchanging good news. None of these tools are perfect. But all of them are useful.Think of this like a toolbox. A good tradie doesn't just have one tool—imagine trying to build a house with only a hammer! No, they've got options. And so do you.But here's the key—tools don't do any good if they stay in the toolbox. So… grab one. Try it out. Start using it!Because the gospel isn't just something to know—it's something to share."

Sharing Faith // Inviting others to join us on the Journey | Pastor RJ Ciaramitaro by Windsor Christian Fellowship
Sharing Faith // The Deep Theology | Pastor RJ Ciaramitaro by Windsor Christian Fellowship
In this engaging sermon, guest speaker David White steps in for Pastor Karl to unpack Romans 10, a chapter rich with the promise of salvation—or "soteria," as it's called in Greek. Diving into Romans 10, David explores Paul's heartfelt plea for his fellow Israelites to embrace salvation through faith, not works. With personal stories—like his dad's grace-filled response to bike-stealing teens—he illustrates the difference between mercy (not getting what we deserve) and grace (getting what we don't deserve). David's core message is clear: "Salvation cannot be achieved; it can only be received because grace is greater than you." Quoting Paul, he emphasizes that believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth that "Jesus is Lord" opens the door to God's gift—no effort required, just acceptance. David challenges listeners to move beyond mere hope into prayer for their heart's desires and to share this good news with others, echoing Paul's call for beautiful feet that bring the gospel. With wit and warmth, he warns against complicating grace, urging us to simply receive it. This episode is a compelling blend of scripture, storytelling, and a call to live out faith in everyday life—perfect for anyone seeking clarity on salvation's simplicity.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Overcoming Online Bullying: The Book of Mormon Squad's Mission on TikTok
We can learn a lot about the nature of God from his Divine Name revealed in Scripture. When God said to Moses, “I am who I am,” this was a revelation of a name as well as a refusal of a name. Fr. Mike explains how this mystery reveals truths about God: he is infinitely above all things; we cannot comprehend him, yet he draws close to us. This Divine Name expresses the steadfast, faithful, unchanging love of God for his people, even when we betray and abandon him. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 205-211.

In this episode, we discuss the nature of God, “who” God is, beginning with God the Father. Our reading explains how the Creed begins with God the Father because he is the first Divine Person of the most Holy Trinity. God is one Divine Being made up of three persons, and his identity is a deep mystery. Fr. Mike explains that God is a single ‘what' made up of three ‘who's.' Despite this mystery, God is not an anonymous force. He has revealed himself to us by making his name known to us, and he has thus made himself accessible. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 198-204.

The Catechism we are reading follows the structure of the Apostles' Creed with frequent references to the Nicene Creed for further details and explanations. Together, these Creeds aid us in articulating the beliefs we share with all members of the Catholic Church. Fr. Mike discusses why St. Ambrose refers to the Creed as “an ever-present guardian” and “treasure of our soul.” He encourages us not to take this gift for granted. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 193-197.

Today we further realize the sense of the word “credo,” meaning “I believe.” As we read the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed, we discover the differences between the two and come to understand how the Nicene Creed, which came centuries later, expands upon and explains the beliefs of the Apostles' Creed. Fr. Mike tells us that these Creeds help us to share the essential elements of Catholicism, acting as “symbols of faith,” and encouraging communion between believers.

In this episode of the No Regrets Podcast, Steve Sonderman and Greg Stier dive into practical ways to introduce Jesus into everyday conversations. How can you take a casual chat about sports and turn it into a meaningful dialogue about faith? Greg shares tools, resources, and encouragement for having gospel-centered conversations that inspire and equip others to follow Christ. Greg emphasizes the importance of being trained, equipped, and mobilized to share the gospel with the next generation. With 80% of people coming to Christ before the age of 18, Greg and Steve discuss how to effectively reach students and disciple them to reach others. They provide insights into evangelism, including how to engage in conversations with grace: ask questions, admire others, admit your own need for Jesus, and share your story. Instead of presenting a rehearsed speech, they encourage listeners to have genuine, gospel-focused conversations. Greg also highlights free curriculum and resources for youth pastors, parents, and grandparents, including the Dare 2 Share website and the Life in 6 Words app. These tools offer practical ways to teach small groups to share the gospel and carve out time for prayer, care, and sharing Christ with others. Greg will be speaking at the upcoming No Regrets Conference, giving two impactful talks: "How to Live Radically Like Christ" and "How to Navigate a Gospel Conversation." For more about Greg, visit Greg Stier's website or Dare 2 Share. Learn about the Life in 6 Words app at li6w.com, an interactive tool to naturally initiate spiritual conversations.

Jesus returns to his hometown of Nazareth twice, and in both instances, His teaching is rejected. This reality demonstrates that despite Jesus' powerful proclamation of the gospel of the kingdom, the minds and hearts of unbelievers will remain closed unless the Holy Spirit regenerates them. Observing Jesus' persistence in preaching the gospel helps us learn how to speak the gospel truth to our friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers and persist if there is a face of rejection.Application QuestionsWill you imitate Jesus' example and not give up the proclamation of the good news when our family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, and unbelieving church attendees do not respond?Will you be faithful to proclaim the gospel as proclaimed in Scripture?Will you be thankful that God has graciously chosen to remove the scales of unbelief from our minds and hearts?Will you have compassion for the unbelievers around us who are lost in unbelief? ★ Support this podcast ★
How can you use this Christmas season as an opportunity to share your faith? On Walking Worthy, Mary Lowman and Lisa Bishop talk about how people are more open at Christmastime—and ideas for how to share your faith in work and in life. They also talk about: How to bring Jesus into the center. The importance of focusing on advent. How to approach office holiday parties. A challenge to reach out to someone who will be alone at the holidays. Some ideas to display the love of Jesus on Christmas Day. A hymn to consider this holiday season.
I was recently asked, "How do you share your faith without coming across as pushy?" It's a big question—how can we invite people into a relationship with Jesus without making it feel manipulative? The answer is simple: We love. The core of the Great Commission—"go and make disciples"—is the call to love because God is love. If we let that love shape and transform us, we become agents of love in our communities. This means nurturing our relationship with God first and letting that love overflow into our relationships with others. In this episode, I talk with Peter Andrastek, Senior Consultant at The Evangelical Catholic (https://evangelicalcatholic.org/). We explore how to share our faith through genuine connections and meaningful conversations. It's about finding a balance: reaching out with urgency, yet having the wisdom to do it gently. Join me as we dive into what it means to be a missionary disciple, sharing the love we've been given in a way that feels authentic and true.

Bishop Hill appears on Sharing Faith Through Testimony.
In this sermon by TJ Thompson, the focus is on the concept of living in the "now" and understanding how our past, present, and future connect. TJ delves into Paul's letters, particularly 2 Corinthians, which address contemporary issues facing early Christian believers in places like Corinth. Paul's teachings on perseverance through suffering and inner strength amidst outward challenges are central themes. TJ recounts the poignant story of Dale and his wife, who faced the tragedy of losing their son to fentanyl. This, alongside the story of Kay or Kim's profound loss, illustrates how faith can sustain us through tremendous sorrow. The importance of knowing Jesus as Savior has been underscored repeatedly in the congregation over recent months, echoing Paul's message that temporary struggles lead to eternal glory. A touching metaphor used by TJ is that of a teacup, serving as a symbol for life's refining process—where hardships mold individuals into something beautiful and lasting. Further, TJ shares Brian Moore's impactful story, highlighting human imperfections and the redemptive power of Christ who replaces our flaws and failures with His name through salvation. Moore's life and untimely death serve as a powerful reminder of the urgency to live purposefully and share one's faith without delay. The sermon concludes with a call to action. TJ urges the congregation not to wait to perform acts of kindness and proclaim their faith, encouraging them to let God shape their lives and use their time wisely. The faithful are reminded that by embracing the present and trusting in God's plan, they can transform temporary suffering into permanent glory, guided by the enduring love and grace of Jesus.

We can learn a lot about the nature of God from his Divine Name revealed in Scripture. When God said to Moses, “I am who I am,” this was a revelation of a name as well as a refusal of a name. Fr. Mike explains how this mystery reveals truths about God: he is infinitely above all things; we cannot comprehend him, yet he draws close to us. This Divine Name expresses the steadfast, faithful, unchanging love of God for his people, even when we betray and abandon him. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 205-211.

In this episode, we discuss the nature of God, “who” God is, beginning with God the Father. Our reading explains how the Creed begins with God the Father because he is the first Divine Person of the most Holy Trinity. God is one Divine Being made up of three persons, and his identity is a deep mystery. Fr. Mike explains that God is a single ‘what' made up of three ‘who's.' Despite this mystery, God is not an anonymous force. He has revealed himself to us by making his name known to us, and he has thus made himself accessible.

The Catechism we are reading follows the structure of the Apostles' Creed with frequent references to the Nicene Creed for further details and explanations. Together, these Creeds aid us in articulating the beliefs we share with all members of the Catholic Church. Fr. Mike discusses why St. Ambrose refers to the Creed as “an ever-present guardian” and “treasure of our soul.” He encourages us not to take this gift for granted. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 193-197.

Today we further realize the sense of the word “credo,” meaning “I believe.” As we read the Apostles' Creed and the Nicene Creed, we discover the differences between the two and come to understand how the Nicene Creed, which came centuries later, expands upon and explains the beliefs of the Apostles' Creed. Fr. Mike tells us that these Creeds help us to share the essential elements of Catholicism, acting as “symbols of faith,” and encouraging communion between believers.
