Who We Are: Serving in the World (Week 3) by Pastor Stephen Woodard

Jesus isn't just part of life; He's the One who holds life together. Most of us treat Jesus like a helpful add-on—someone to invite into the hard moments, the Sunday mornings, the moral decisions. But the rest of the week? We're on our own. In this message, Digital Ministries Pastor Bradley Medford unpacks Colossians 1:15-17 and shows us what happens when we stop compartmentalizing our faith and start letting Jesus hold everything together. A true reset doesn't come from asking God to bless the life we've already built. It comes from centering every part of life—work, relationships, schedules, goals—around Him. Join us as we learn how to move from fragmentation to integration, and discover the peace that comes when Jesus is at the center of it all.

This week marks a quiet but pivotal turning point — not dramatic, but consequential. It's a hinge moment where one era completes its handoff and another begins asking for our consent.Rather than forecasting outcomes, this episode offers orientation: how to stand inside change with maturity, discernment, and care.We explore the larger context shaping this week:• The completion of a long Capricorn chapter and the collective shift toward Aquarius — from endurance and survival toward pattern awareness and conscious participation. • Neptune preparing to leave Pisces after fourteen years (2011–now), closing an era of dissolving certainties, heightened sensitivity, spiritual longing, and widespread disorientation — including life lived through screens, fear-based narratives, and inherited domination stories that thrive on confusion rather than discernment. • Neptune approaching Aries, signaling a change in tone from saturation to self-location — from absorbing the collective field to choosing what we are willing to embody and steward. • Pluto waiting at the Aquarian gate, initiating a deeper reckoning with power, responsibility, and participation in collective systems — not through collapse, but through clarity. • A stabilizing alliance between Saturn in Pisces and Uranus in Taurus (in supportive sextile), reminding us that lasting change does not require everything to fall apart; it asks for patient redesign rather than reactive rupture. • A return to last week's New Moon at the final degrees of Capricorn — an unusually dense lunation involving all the personal planets and Pluto, harmonizing with Uranus, Saturn, and Neptune, and standing opposite Jupiter. Its message of “all hands on deck” is reframed here not as urgency, but as mature engagement and conscious participation.This is not a week that demands action. It asks for orientation.Reflective Questions for the Week• Where in my life am I still operating from endurance rather than conscious choice? • What currently shapes my attention most — and does it align with what I truly want to steward? • In this moment of transition, what would it look like to stand more clearly in my values through steady, mature engagement rather than urgency or reaction?This episode is an invitation to locate yourself more clearly in time — and to participate in what's emerging with care, responsibility, and presence.Podcast poem:  All This by Rosemerry Wahtola TrommerSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

Rest isn't earned; it's received. Most of us are exhausted—not just physically, but spiritually. We're constantly chasing relief through distraction, entertainment, or just powering through. But relief is not the same as rest. In this message, Lead Pastor Clay Monkus explores Jesus' countercultural invitation in Matthew 11:28–30 and shows us what it looks like to trade temporary fixes for lasting refuge. The soul doesn't find peace when life finally calms down. It finds peace when it returns to Jesus. Join us as we learn how to stop running from our weariness and start resting in the One who offers true refuge—no matter how loud life gets.

You can't rest in a God you never notice. In a world that runs on hurry, noise, and notifications, most of us have forgotten what it feels like to be truly still. We believe in Jesus, but do we actually experience Him? In this opening message of our new series, Lead Pastor Clay Monkus explores Psalm 46:10 and invites us into a different kind of reset—one that begins not with doing more, but with waking up to God's presence right where we are. Spiritual transformation doesn't start with a better plan. It starts with awareness. Join us as we rediscover how to quiet the chaos, tune out the distractions, and encounter the Jesus who's been waiting for us to simply be still.

We have wrapped up our season of waiting for Christ's first coming and have celebrated His birth. Still, we are in a lifetime of waiting for Christ's return. What will His return accomplish? How can we be encouraged to perseverance with joy while the world remains dark and Him setting all things right seems far removed from our daily reality? Join us Sunday as we rejoice that Christ has come to save us now and look forward in hope to His coming again!Prepare for this week's teaching by reading Genesis 1-2 with Revelation 21-22

Good News Great Joy All People Christmas isn't a story to just remember; it's a reality to embrace. The Savior that was born in Bethlehem must be born in out heart.

In this message, Greg Hubbard shares the importance of spreading the light of Jesus, especially during the Christmas season, by embracing the call to evangelize in a world filled with darkness. He encourages us to be proactive in sharing our faith, recognizing that Jesus is the only source of salvation and hope for a broken world.

In Week 3 of our Joy to the World Christmas series, we explore “The Wonders of His Love.” Rooted in Ephesians 3:16–19, discover how God's love moves toward us first, reaches farther than our failures, and brings real change to our hearts and lives. 

Born to Change the World | Week 3 | The Plan of Christmas | Pastor Tyler Sollie | Life Center Tacoma The miracle that CHANGED the WORLD didn't arrive without CHALLENGE Matthew 1:18-25 (CSB) God doesn't AVOID the MESS, He ENTERS it.

In this week's message, Pastor Eric discusses overcoming fear with faith, using the story of Mary's encounter with the angel Gabriel as an example of finding the strength to face daunting challenges with trust in God. He encourages us to open our hearts to God, reminding us that nothing is impossible with Him and urging us to embrace our potential and the opportunities for faith-driven change in our lives.

In this week's message, Pastor Scott explores the biblical narrative of the angel Gabriel's announcement to Mary, emphasizing the significance of Jesus as the eternal Son of God and the fulfillment of prophetic promises. He encourages us to respond in faith and obedience to God's word, highlighting the vital connection between a reverent fear of God, divine favor, and the personal call to action we each receive from God.

In this Christmas message, we unpack the line “He comes to make His blessings flow far as the curse is found.” From Eden to Bethlehem, Calvary to the New Creation, we see how Jesus breaks the curse of sin and brings restoration to every corner of creation. This sermon will deepen your understanding of the gospel story and renew your hope as we look toward Christ's return.

Born to Change the World | Week 2 | The Promise of Christmas | Pastor Tyler Sollie | Life Center Tacoma Long before the world saw the MANGER, God promised a MESSIAH. Isaiah 9:2-7 (CSB) The promise came in an UNEXPECTED PACKAGE Galatians 4:4-5 (CSB) “God's answer to everything that has ever terrorized us is a child…His answer to the bullies swaggering through history is not to become an even bigger bully. His answer is Jesus.” -Ray Ortlund, Jr. The promise has YOUR NAME on it The promise was brought to COMPLETION through God's ZEAL

Shepherds and Angels, ordinary men among magnificent heavenly hosts. This story is remarkable, the characters are unexpected, God's plan of salvation and the way it is carried out by the creating and sustaining God is challenging for us to fully grasp. Still, we don't have to grasp it completely in order to join with the shepherds and angels in singing praises to our worthy and mighty Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!Prepare for this week's teaching by reading Luke 2:8-20 with 1 Peter 1:3-12For your continued pursuit, utilize our Advent Reflections each week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Pastor Rodney's sermon emphasizes that Jesus Christ is the Light of the world who came to dispel darkness and transform lives. The pastor explores how Christ's birth wasn't just a sweet story but the most significant event in human history—God entering our dark world to bring hope, truth, and transformation. The message challenges believers to not only receive Christ's light but to walk in it daily and shine it to others who are lost in darkness.

Pastor Eric's sermon explores Jesus Christ as the light of the world, emphasizing how God entered human darkness in the most humble way possible and focuses on how light reveals truth, transforms lives, and cannot be overcome by darkness. He challenges the congregation to move beyond the commercialism of Christmas to remember that Jesus came not merely to inform but to transform.

In this opening message of our Joy to the World Christmas series, we rediscover the meaning behind the famous line: “Let every heart prepare Him room.” Drawing from Luke 2:1–7 and Matthew 2:1–13, we explore how the arrival of King Jesus calls us to open our hearts, reorder our lives, and awaken our deepest longings.

Pastor Scott begins a new series focused on the biblical theme of light, illustrating how God's light, exemplified by Jesus, provides hope and direction in our lives, especially during times of darkness.

Every Advent we seek to spend time focusing in on the story of Jesus' coming to help instill in us a heart postured towards Christ during the Christmas season. We've chosen the hymn ‘Joy to the World' and pray that these well known verses will be our daily anthem.The prophets in the Old Testament often wrote of the coming Messiah and the salvation He would bring. In our first week of Advent we will study Isaiah's plea and prayer for God to ‘come down'. In his prayer he remembers all the amazing things God has done for His people. As a child coming before a father, Isaiah shares this heart cry confident in God's character and love.Prepare for this week's teaching by reading Isaiah 64:1-9, 9:6-7; Matthew 1:18-25, Romans 15:13For your continued pursuit, utilize our Advent Reflections each week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

WHEN WE CEASE TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD_week three by EastLake Tri-Cities

As we wrapped up Hope for the World 2025, we focused on how each of us can take part in engaging the nations with the gospel. Pastor Scott Worthington preached from Colossians 4:2–4. In this passage, we learned that prayer is one of the primary ways we join in on what God is doing around the world. As we pray, God—by His sovereignty—chooses to move through the prayers of His people, opening doors of opportunity and inviting us to step into them to proclaim the gospel. Every Jesus follower is called to share the good news with those who do not know Jesus. Check out this sermon to learn more and see how you can take your next step in taking part of what God is doing in Las Vegas, the west, and the world.

In Week 2 of Hope for the World, we focused on reaching our nation through church planting. Pastor Ricky Harris taught from Acts 13:1–4. In this passage, the local church recognized the need to share the gospel beyond itself and sent out missionaries to do just that. In the same way, God has called every Jesus follower to share the gospel — and reaching the nations through church multiplication might be part of that calling. Whether it's starting a church or joining a church plant, God may be prompting you to take that step. Watch this sermon to learn more!
