Podcasts about sunday extra

Welcome back to Season 3 of the Sunday Extra podcast! After a refreshing summer break, Pastors Matt, Brian, Luke, and Jeremy are back to dive deeper into Sunday's message about God's multigenerational plan. This week, they explore how different generations can work together in the church and what it means to have "all hands on deck." Join us for some laughs with the "Mind the Gap" generational trivia game, insights into building a 150-year church vision, and a preview of the upcoming "Financial Squeeze" series.

Join our pastoral team as they wrap up this season with another engaging and authentic conversation. Our host shares a hilarious "real life" moment of being stuck at a stoplight due to a truck blocking the trigger sensor, leading to a discussion about patience and navigating daily frustrations. The team dives into the recent Mother's Day sermon about doubt and unshakable faith, sharing personal experiences of wrestling with intellectual questions and finding their way back to trust in God. Listen as they recommend helpful resources and discuss how prayer remains essential even when facing challenging theological questions. Highlights include: The baptism dilemma: cold water vs. Trinity River (and whether cheese grits or grape jelly would be worse alternatives!) Parenting lessons learned from their mothers How to handle doubt while continuing to move forward in faith The importance of community when facing spiritual struggles That powerful biblical statement: "I believe; help my unbelief." This is our season finale, but join us at Hope Church this summer for our sermon series on the Lord's Prayer. Subscribe to catch our return and any surprise bonus episodes!

Pastors Jeremy, Luke, and Brian discuss the topic of failure and how God uses it in our lives. They share personal stories of failure, including instances of lying and damaging relationships. They emphasize that what we perceive as failure may actually be part of God's larger plan, citing examples from the Bible such as Joseph and John Mark. Key points include: 1. The importance of defining failure from God's perspective rather than a worldly viewpoint. 2. How God can use our failures to shape our character and teach us valuable lessons. 3. The significance of surrounding ourselves with supportive people who can help us grow through failures. 4. The need to trust God with both our own hearts and the hearts of those we may have hurt through our failures. The pastors draw parallels between God and a coach, noting that while God doesn't set us up to fail, He can use our failures to produce righteousness and peace in our lives. They conclude by encouraging listeners to lean into God as a strong foundation during times of failure, emphasizing that we are always in process and that God continues to work in our lives through both good and bad circumstances.

On Easter Sunday, Pastor Matt kicked off a new sermon series titled "Unshakable Faith." This series aims to help believers navigate the storms of life by grounding their faith in Jesus. The pastor emphasized that while troubles are inevitable, God provides peace, power, and direction to those who trust in Him. The series will explore various challenges that can shake one's faith, including anxiety, weakness, uncertainty, failure, doubt, illness, and death. Pastor Brian's goal is to equip the congregation with practical tools to face these difficulties, encouraging them to look to God first rather than as a last resort. He shared personal examples of how he's applying these principles in his own life, demonstrating that even pastors need reminders of God's faithfulness during tough times. The church saw good attendance for Easter, with deveral individuals indicating decisions to believe in Christ, highlighting the impact of sharing the Gospel message. As the series progresses, Pastor Matt hopes it will strengthen the faith of both long-time believers and newcomers alike.

This sermon discussion delves into the complex issue of forgiveness, which the pastors describe as a supernatural gift we first receive from God through Jesus before we can truly offer it to others. They define forgiveness as pardoning an offender and releasing them from the penalty of their wrongdoing. It involves letting go of resentment and the right to seek revenge, while reflecting God's grace and mercy. The pastors emphasize that forgiveness is a choice, not a feeling, and often requires both time and Jesus' help to fully accomplish. They distinguish between forgiveness, which only requires one person, and reconciliation, which requires agreement between both parties. The speakers also discuss the difference between forgiveness and apologizing, noting that sometimes an apology is appropriate even when no sin has occurred. They stress that while Christians are commanded to forgive, they are not always required to reconcile or rebuild trust, especially in cases of abuse or severe harm.

In this sermon discussion, Pastor Matt and his colleagues delve into the topic of speaking in tongues and its relationship to the Holy Spirit. They clarify that while speaking in tongues is mentioned in the Bible, it is not a requirement for salvation or evidence of the Holy Spirit's presence in a believer's life. The pastors emphasize that the Holy Spirit indwells all true believers at the moment of salvation, as evidenced by scriptures such as Ephesians 1:13-14 and Romans 8:9. The discussion then shifts to the dangers of legalism in spiritual practices, particularly in one's quiet time or devotional habits. The pastors share personal experiences of how they've struggled with turning their Bible reading and prayer time into a checklist rather than focusing on developing a relationship with God. They encourage listeners to prioritize growing in their relationship with Jesus over simply completing religious tasks. The conversation concludes with reflections on how to recognize the Holy Spirit's work in a believer's life, emphasizing the importance of the "fruit of repentance" and gradual life change as evidence of genuine faith.

Jerry Roberts has been an associate pastor at Hope Church for nearly 26 years.  This episode was recorded on his last full weekday before retirement, and pastor Matt asked Jerry to reflect on his life and ministry. Growing up in Fort Worth, Jerry came to faith at a young age but didn't fully commit to following Jesus until later in life.  His background in business and psychology, coupled with a heart for evangelism, prepared him for a unique role in ministry. Throughout the conversation, Jerry emphasizes the importance of obedience to God's Word and the courage to share one's faith.  He recalls numerous instances of witnessing to others, from door-to-door evangelism to chance encounters on airplanes.  Jerry's advice for believers is simple yet profound: "Do what God wants you to do today" and walk by faith, not by sight. Jerry draws inspiration from 1 Peter 4:2, which says, "You won't spend the rest of your life chasing your own desires but you will be anxious to do the will of God" (Living Bible).  He encourages listeners to make a daily commitment to follow Jesus, regardless of feelings or circumstances.  As he concludes his time on staff at Hope Church, Jerry's life serves as a testament to the impact of faithful obedience and a willingness to be used by God.

In this discussion about the book of Colossians, Pastor Matt and Hope's associate pastors explore Paul's approach to writing, noting how he typically presents doctrine before addressing practical Christian living. They highlight Colossians 1:13-14 as a key passage, discussing how believers have been delivered from the domain of darkness and transferred to Christ's kingdom. In addition to hearing each person's testimony and call to ministry, the conversation delves into Paul's use of various images to illustrate salvation, including courtroom, Marketplace, bank, home, and battlefield analogies. These images help explain concepts like justification, redemption, forgiveness, adoption, and reconciliation. The pastors emphasize the importance of understanding these truths as a foundation for Christian living. The team also discusses the preeminence of Christ as presented in Colossians, noting how a proper understanding of Jesus' identity is crucial for believers to live out their faith effectively. They stress the importance of continuing in faith and staying rooted in Christ, while acknowledging the tension between God's sovereignty and human responsibility in the Christian walk.
