Jesus, the Good Shepherd, dies for the sake of his sheep. How can this strange teaching from John 10:11-18 apply to our support of KIST in Kenya?
The Joy of Serving
What do packing diapers, feeding strangers, and visiting Guatemala have in common? They are all ways that we have served in the past few months. Listen as Pastor Jerry preaches on Colossians 1:3-14, with testimonies from Shane Mudd, Shannon Krolikowski, and Isabella Krolikowski.
Mission in the Ivory Coast
Bobby and Jenny Mihsill are our Living Link missionaries to the Ivory Coast. How does 1 John 1:1–2:2 relate to them – and to us?
Raised With Christ
Christianity teaches some unbelievable things: not just that Jesus died and rose again, but so have we (see Colossians 3:1-17). Listen in as Pastor David helps us wrestle with the implications of this idea.
Who Will Roll the Stone Away?
Life is full of unanswered, high-anxiety questions. How does the empty tomb of Jesus help us cope with uncertainty? Listen to this early-service message from Mark 16:1-4.
Hunger, Anger, Danger
Jesus cursed a fig tree and cleansed the temple. What surprising work might he do in our lives? This week’s sermon is on Mark 11:12-25.
Justice in Christ
“It’s a real problem, and somebody better do something about it. But who? Oh, it’ll take care of itself.” Do we ever say that in our lives? And what does this have to do with the courtroom drama that plays out in Micah 6:1-8? Listen in to this week’s sermon:
Life in Christ
Do you know John 3:16? “For God so loved…” It seems like many people, especially Christians, know that verse, but what about its context? If we only read John 3:16, being a Christian could just depend on a mental acknowledgement of Jesus. But that’s not what John 3:14-21 is about. Listen in as Pastor David continues our series of messages with connections to human trafficking. (And visit www.free2work.org when you are finished!)
Rescue in Christ
“I do not do what I want to do. Who will rescue me from this body of death?” Paul’s words in Romans 7:14-25 ring true in today’s world, in a variety of ways. How can Jesus rescue us from the things that bind us? What difference does faith in Christ make in the fight against human trafficking? Listen in to Pastor David’s sermon as we continue our Lenten series on this important subject:
Hope in Christ
This week, our guest speaker was Kaitlyn Mercy, a local 17-year-old survivor of human trafficking. Due to the sensitive and personal nature of her experiences, we will not be posting an audio recording of her message. Instead, please take some time to familiarize yourself with some of the resources we can use to fight human trafficking:
- Read about the Polaris Project at www.polarisproject.org.
- Call 1-888-3737-888 if you suspect someone is a victim of trafficking.
- Check out Project HOPE, an organization founded by Kaitlyn herself to help people find healing: www.facebook.com/projecthope1 or www.project-hope.tumblr.com.
