The Pastor Brad Podcast

Christmas is about more than the birth of Jesus, it is about the light of God bursting forth into the earth. Since the fall of man, people lived in darkness hoping for a time when everything would be illuminated. When Christ came the eyes of man where opened so that they could see. Christ ushered in truth, He ushered in clarity, He ushered in freedom from our bondage. Paul referred to this as bein...

In preparation for purchasing the building out on Poplar Street, we are dedicating this morning to taking up a special offering. The sermon was focused on how God has supplied for us in our past when we needed it and what we need to do in order to be cheerful givers. It was a powerful Sunday morning.

Join us as we celebrate 16 years as a church. It's a day of celebration beginning with our Sunday morning worship and concluding with our Anniversary Dinner. Sunday morning was a powerful time of worship with special guest Steve Martin and his family.

If we believe that our children are precious then how do we invest into their lives and faith? How do we raise kids who will love the Lord? How do we create an environment in our home that draws them close to Jesus? We're taking a look at how we can raise Godly children.

Nathan Peacock shares about the hope that we have in Jesus. As Nate has travelled extensively for his business he has noticed something everywhere he goes...that people seem hopeless, depressed, stressed, disillusioned, and searching for something significant, something worth following. His conclusion: That Jesus brings hope to a fallen and broken world.

In a time when marriage is devalued, attacked, and reimagined, Christians need to understand what a healthy and Godly marriage is. How do we set ourselves up for a lifetime commitment? How do we treat each other in the home? What about the sexual relationship? What does marriage teach us about God? We're going to look into these questions and unpack what the Bible says about marriage.

So far we've looked at why God created women, their eternal purpose, and how women represent the bride of Christ. Today we are going to look at some of the difficult scriptures and understand what Paul intended in writing them.

There are many themes that follow throughout the scripture. Themes like the old man vs. the new man, the river that flows through the garden and the new Jerusalem being found in the Holy Spirit, the tree of life and the Christ the giver of life. We also find the righteous woman and the counterfeit woman. The righteous woman is seen in many women that are talked about in the scripture. Women like S...

What is a Godly woman? In our culture there are so many ideas of what a woman should be or even what a woman is. It can be confusing at times and so it is vital for us to understand God's purpose for women, especially as they engage in the mission of the Christ's gospel. Even in the church there are a variety of ways to address this question. You'll hear everything from relegating women to a secon...

What is a Godly Man? We began to answer this question last week and took a look at the spiritual pursuits of a Godly Man. This week we take a look at four specific things that a Godly Man does according to scripture.

As we look at what makes a Christ Centered Family, we first take a look at what a Godly man is according to scripture. There are so many wrong ideas in our culture. Some would suggest that men are the cause of all kinds of evil in the world and they would seek to dismantle the role of men in the family and in society. While others would promote a hyper masculine ideal. However, the scripture offer...

In today's message we walk through our belief statement to discover its Biblical roots and its connection to historical Apostolic teaching.

Join us today as we review our covenant statement with LifeSong Church to understand the Biblical roots of our commitment to our congregation.

What Biblical Principles Do We Find In Our Covenant With Each Other? As a church we seek to create a Biblical or Kingdom culture. It's not always easy because life is messy and although I wish that we all just got along perfectly, because after all we're Christians, that is not always the case. We all have good days and bad and there are times when familiarity breeds contempt. Honestly at times we...

What Biblical Principles Do We Find In Our Covenant With God? As a church we seek to follow God passionately. So, each year we take a Sunday and we commit ourselves to certain Biblical principles which we have written into a Covenant Statement. And while it may seem a little odd at first, we have found it to be a blessing to clarify how we choose to live for Christ in such a document. Years ago we...
