Podcasts about simple faith

In Matthew 10, Pastor Karl highlights a pivotal transition in Jesus' ministry, where the disciples move from merely observing and admiring Him to being sent out as active participants in His mission. Jesus calls the Twelve, empowers them with authority to heal, cast out demons, and proclaim the kingdom of heaven, and then commissions them to go first to the lost sheep of Israel. This chapter marks a hinge point in the Gospel: following Jesus is not just about learning His teachings or attending gatherings—it demands responsibility, urgency, and full participation in sharing the good news.Jesus is strikingly honest about the cost. He instructs the disciples to travel light, relying completely on God's provision rather than personal security or contingency plans, emphasizing that dependence on Him is central to discipleship. He warns of inevitable resistance: they will face opposition from culture, religious leaders, and even family members, as allegiance to Him can divide households and bring persecution. Yet, Jesus promises divine help—the Spirit will speak through them in moments of trial—and calls for wise, innocent endurance, urging believers to flee persecution when possible not for self-preservation, but to reach more people with the gospel.Ultimately, Pastor Karl challenges the church: a faith that costs nothing accomplishes nothing. The true disciple pledges exclusive allegiance to Jesus, accepting the responsibility to live as radical image-bearers of Christ in the world, no matter the personal price. This message confronts comfort-seeking Christianity and invites every listener to decide if Jesus is worth the cost of true following.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 Mark 10, we meet a blind beggar sitting on the side of the road while Jesus is passing by. His name means “son of honor” or “son of worth” — yet he's living like a beggar. In this message, we walk through the story of Blind Bartimaeus and explore the tension between who God says we are and how we often see ourselves. What does it mean that he threw off his cloak? Why does Jesus ask such a specific question — “What do you want me to do for you?” And why is it sometimes easier to believe in Jesus than it is to ask Him for something specific? Healing wasn't the end of Bartimaeus' story — following was. But following began with an honest answer to the question, “What do you want me to do for you?”   From Sunday 02.08.26

In John’s Gospel, Jesus’ signs are meant to reveal who He is and invite people into deeper trust, and the healing of the royal official’s son shows how faith grows over time. This story challenges the idea that faith is irrational or instant, presenting it instead as trust—slowly and deliberately placed in Jesus. The royal official’s journey moves from hearing about Jesus, to seeking Him out, to asking in desperation, and finally to trusting Jesus at His word, even without visible proof. Jesus tests the man’s faith, not to push him away, but to draw him deeper, revealing that real belief isn’t about seeing miracles first but about trusting who Jesus is. As the official obeys and walks home before knowing the outcome, his faith matures—and when healing is confirmed, belief spreads to his entire household. The story reminds us that faith is not a formula but a process, built through small steps of trust, where Jesus Himself—not the strength of our faith—is the true source of life, healing, and salvation.

All throughout both the Old and New Testaments, we see a clear pattern of people in Scripture turning to prayer and fasting in times of uncertainty, brokenness, and need. And in those examples, we find that prayer and fasting are not just religious obligations but natural responses to desperation. And we find that moments of crisis can lead to spiritual renewal when approached with humility and dependence on God. And we find that whether you and I are facing the unknown road ahead or the ruins of life, the invitation is to pray and fast, recognizing that our deepest hunger can only be satisfied by God.

In this unforgettable episode of Simple Faith, host Rusty George sits down with worship leader and storyteller Justin Howard for a wide-ranging, deeply human conversation that moves from UFC cages to church pews—and everywhere in between.Justin opens up about his surprising past as a mixed martial arts fighter, dramatic weight loss journey, and growing up as a pastor's kid who almost walked away from faith altogether. Along the way, he shares how music—across every genre imaginable—became a sacred language that shaped his calling, from old hymns and gospel roots to James Taylor, George Jones, Rich Mullins, and beyond.The conversation weaves laughter, nostalgia, and profound moments of vulnerability, including a powerful story of hearing God's voice in the most unexpected place: a UFC gym. Together, Rusty and Justin explore what worship really is, how God meets us through art and emotion, and why faith isn't confined to a stage, a song, or a Sunday service.
