The Cambridge Vineyard Podcast

   Lack is a cruel taskmaster. It drives anxiety, fuels striving, and keeps us chasing scraps instead of coming to the source of life. When we believe something is missing, we start running to anything that promises relief, distraction, or control, but it never satisfies, it only deepens the hunger.  Scripture keeps pointing us back to the same truth, Jesus. When He is the one shepherding us, we l...

   This week I’m still camping in John chapter one, and the word that stopped me this time was behold. Beholding is not passive. It is choosing to stop, to turn my attention, and to yield my time and my inner posture to God. In Scripture, behold always comes with provision, something God gives that we cannot produce through our own effort. I unpack how beholding begins in humility, open hands, and...

 This fall, I keep hearing the same invitation from Jesus, come to me. In John 1, He turns to the first disciples and asks, what do you seek, and that question has been working on my heart. In this message, I share some of my own “false comforts” and distractions, the places I run to when I am tired or overwhelmed, and how they never actually give what my heart is really looking for. We walk throu...

 Jesus’ first question to His followers was simple and disruptive, what are you seeking? This message looks at that question through John 1 and Mary’s response in Luke 1, where the soul magnifies and the spirit rejoices. We talk about how easily our desires drift, how quickly our attention magnifies the wrong things, and how Jesus invites us out of striving and into His easy yoke. Through stories...

      We Were Made For More! At just sixteen, Niamh shares a powerful message on what it means to live a mission lifestyle right where you are.

     Since 1998, Deb has quietly and faithfully answered the call to missions, traveling to more than 16 countries, often returning multiple times to serve and encourage. She will share what first drew her into missions, how her experiences have shaped both her life and the lives of those she’s encountered, and how the Great Commission, Jesus’ last instruction before His ascension, continues to st...

     This Sunday, we welcome Shaina Gomes as our guest speaker. Throughout our Summer Voices series, we’ve been building on the foundation that God is our friend and He is completely trustworthy. But knowing this is not the end of the story…it’s the beginning! The question now is, how will we respond? Following Jesus was never meant to be passive, it’s a call to action, a call to live with intenti...

This week we welcome Jen & Phil Snell of Hope Ministries (Brazil) At its core, the Bible is God’s love story. His pursuit to restore relationship with us. From the garden to Jesus putting on flesh, His heart has always been to step into our world. That’s our calling too: to build trust, walk alongside people, and show the gospel through friendship and presence. In Brazil, Hope Ministries conti...

Beyond Words: Grace and Sovereignty Grace and sovereignty meet in the tension of the kingdom already here and not yet. David fasted for his child, then worshiped when the child died. Jesus prayed in Gethsemane, “not my will, but yours be done.” We too live in this place—praying for the sick, serving the poor, trusting God even when outcomes don’t make sense.  His mercy flows freely, and our call i...

This Sunday, we are excited to welcome Ian Macdougall as our guest speaker. We will be leading us to reflect on The Head and the Heart in his message, Beyond Words: Understanding the Heart of God.

Summer Voices Series This message is for anyone longing to walk with God in honesty, joy, and deep trust—even in the midst of life’s hardest moments. When we let God remove the shame that hides us, we can face sin with joy instead of fear, trusting Him as our defender and friend. Trials then become a privilege, shaping our hearts to love what He loves, hate what He hates, and see His goodness in e...

This week, Tabitha invites us into a slower, deeply personal moment in our journey Out of the Shadows .

This week continues our journey through Mark 8 , revealing the subtle but powerful influences of the world—the “leaven” of the Pharisees and Herod—that shape not only our thinking, but the postures of our hearts.
