New Life on Cape Cod's weekly messages.

In this weeks message, Dalene shares an encouraging word on how to develop resilience as a believer in the times we live in.

God takes His time and purposes and puts them together so that His plan unfolds. A small way in which we can steward these plans is found in the story of Esther. Making the right choices effects not just your world, but those around you. 

God's time and purpose go hand in hand as His plans unfold. As we live our daily lives we make decisions that are important components to the purposes of God unfolding and one of those components are who we allow to influence our lives; friendships.  

St. Nicholas was known as a man who served his village, sometimes anonymously, to bring about good to those around him. Jesus is our greatest example of servanthood and in this podcast we talk about what servanthood means in our day. 

In this message Dalene shows how sin came into the world through a choice that was made, and shares three vital areas of choices that can push back darkness in our world. 

Mankind has always grappled with the questions surrounding evil and the goodness of God. in this episode we tackle some of that thinking and hopefully help answers those questions. 

Stephen and Dalene discuss why evil is in the world if God is good. 

In John 6:60-69 we read the account of a multitude of followers turning and leaving Jesus after He challenged them. What had drawn them to Jesus in the beginning was no longer enough to sustain them, except the disciples. What was it that set the disciples apart? 

In part two of the Fear of God series, Stephen looks from the New Testament perspective how the fear of the Lord translates into a deep devoted reverencing of God and what that looks like. 

As a disciple of Jesus Christ it is important to understand different components to following Jesus. One of these components is the aspect of the fear of God. In this message, Stephen explains what this aspect means and how it's meant to brings life to us instead of fear. 

There is a spiritual key to thankfulness that unlocks the favor of God. Stephen shares what happens when we turn our eyes from the crisis at hand and start to thank the Lord for His faithfulness. 

This week we talk about what it means to walk in the Spirit, what it looks like in our day to day life and how we cultivate our relationship with Holy Spirit so that when the stuff of life comes our way, we don't "fall off the bus".

Many believers are loosing sight of Jesus' command to be witnesses and Pauls command to being ambassadors of the Kingdom. In this message, Dalene brings a call to get back to the basics and not be distracted by the things of this world. 

Stephen shows how having a heavenly mindset is needed in order to "redo" past situations that were unresolved. 

Hebrews 13:15 encourages us to offer up a sacrifice of praise to God. What does that mean and how do we as believers find the courage to give God something that is costly to us? 

There is a greater depth to giving glory to the Father than thanking Him for His kind acts towards us. In this message, Stephen shares five perspectives in which God's glory is revealed and how we are witnesses to that glory. 

In part three of the Journey series, Stephen and Dalene show how we can stay in the journey with Jesus where we don't get distracted and tripped up by life itself, but instead stay focused on the path we are on with God so that we become a people who "walks with God" like in Adam and Eve before the fall. 

After last weeks message on Redefining the Journey, Stephen covers the aspect of further refining our journey and lays out tools to understanding the journey we are on and how to walk it out knowing that Christ is at the center. 

There are two options we view people and circumstances through; for us or against us. As believers, we often think that we are the center of God's world and therefore He is against anything that would hinder our blessing and happiness. How would we respond if God had a different agenda? 

Our circumstances are not our journey nor do they define our journey. Instead, when we make Jesus the center of our lives, we begin to live life beyond our circumstances and enter into a fruit-filled life; Jesus becomes our journey!

This week we look at the story of Jesus healing the Official's son found in John chapter 4. This event leads Jesus to challenge His followers about where their belief in Him truly lies.

Stephen and Dalene explain how living a life of abundance will help bring stability to an unstable world. 

In John chapter 3 we read about Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus and how we need to be baptized in the water and the Spirit. What does that mean and what we can we take away from this encounter with Jesus? 

In this message, Dalene shows steps in how to walk with confidence that produces evident fruit in our walk with God. 

In John chapter 2:13 we read about Jesus cleansing the temple from the merchants and sellers who robbed God of pure worship. Jesus' actions show us the heart of worship towards the Father for then and now.
