Cheyenne Hills Podcast

Pastor Jon is the newest addition to the Cheyenne Hills staff as our Associate Pastor, and one of his passions is what we call Grow Groups. We discuss the curcial nature of relationships with groups of Christians on our spiritual health and growth.

Kasey and Jacob are joined in the studio by Cheyenne Hills' Lead Pastor Galen Huck and new Associate Pastor Jon Simpson as we discuss our Good Friday and Easter messages, as well as what we hope to take on through the next year so we don't forget, and we don't "miss it."

Pastor Galen rounds off our Unexpected series with the most unexpected event in history: Jesus returning from the dead. He is Risen!

Three speakers explore the experiences and lessons of three individuals during the 18 hours prior to Jesus' crucifixion.

Pastor Galen referenced a passage in Mark in which Jesus offers an answer to the Pharisee's question if they can answer one from Him, and they are too afraid, too "on the fence" to answer. The luke-warm Pharisee and the luke-warm Christian have a lot in common. If we find ourselves sitting on the fence in our Faith, we may find ourselves in poor company as well as in grave danger.

We continue our Easter series with a look at the way Jesus approached His ministry, how he reacted to those around Him in order to teach them, the chances He gave and the consequences if we don't take those chances. The Pharisees couldn't answer Him, and the tree withered.

We got to hear from our new Associate Pastor this week, speaking about God's patience with Moses as his character flaws continued to trip him up even at the end of his ministry and leadership of the Israelites. Our questions is: when it comes to responding to God and fulfilling your purpose... what's stopping you?

Welcome our new Associate Pastor Jon Simpson in his debut sermon at Cheyenne Hills Church! He continues our Easter series on the unexpected nature of God's plans from our perspective by following Moses as his character flaws reveal God's patience.

Guest speaker Joel Lawrence brings a fresh look at a phrase many longtime Christians take for granted: Jesus is the light.

This week's sermon revolved around the parralel tracks which split out from Eve's sons Seth and the imfamous Cain. Two "trains," one's track bound for worldly pursuits, and the other toward reverence for God. Where do these two separate trails show up in our life? And perhaps more difficultly, where do we see them within ourselves?

This week we begin our Easter series by exploring the unexpected promise God wove into the sentence He passed on Adam, Eve & the serpent in Genesis 3: 14-15. Galen explains how this began a history-long conflict between those who would seek gratification in the world, and those who would revere God. Luckily for us, the outcome was already determined, and would come to a head with Christ's...

Today we dig into the ideas Galen presented in his sermon about the parallels between the Holy Trinity, Jesus's ministry, the structure of marriage and the roles of men and women in the church.

Pastor Galen rounds out or Family Fortress series tackling a set of difficult issues. The roles of men and women in the family, and in the church. He illuminates these principles with a few comparisons that may surprise you.

Moving through the Biblical image of the family structure, this week we focus on one of the most daunting of roles: being a parent.

Tiffany Erickson joins us today while we talk about the expectations of men in a marriage as described by the Bible, and how we dudes can go about living that out.

Last week, Galen spoke on the institution of marriage and where it fits in the world. In our second installment on the Biblical family structure, we look at the nature of the bond between a husband and wife.

You can get just a few words into the Biblical descriptions of household structure before you start running into things that strike 21st-Century ears the wrong way, which can lead us to ignoring the subject. Jacob and Kasey talk abou the difference between honoring and blindly obeying, between headship and responsibility, and ask guys an important question...

We start a new series this week, and just as a disclaimer, this one will require patience and carefull listening. We will cover the God-ordained, Biblical model of a family. These are parts of scripture we like to glaze over, because we're afraid they're saying something we won't like, when in fact it shows a loving and beautiful structure. These are words that can be weaponized, but w...

We finish off our sermon series about checking our worldview and beliefs against the reality of God's Truth with a big one: the fact that you and I and all of us are made in the image of God, and all the complexity that comes with that!

One argument those who question the Christian worldview bring is the "problem" of Evil. If God is good, how or why does He allow evil to exist. It turns out, this is actually more a problem for other worldviews to explain, as it fits right into the True image of reality provided in Christian belief. How, you ask? I guess you'll have to listen to today's sermon.

This week's sermon not only neatly laid out some of the primary ideas of this series, it offered us a truth it's easy to forget: God put YOU in this place, in this time, all on purpose. So how do we figure out what that reason is?

Guest speaker Keith Kautz succinctly lays out the process for testing our world-views against reality as we continue our series about God's truth, and how we can get it mixed up.

Happy New Year! The Companion Podcast returns with producer Kasey Orr and Cheyenne Hills Interim Next-Gen Director Jacob Hazzard, and we're tackling a very minor issue this series: does your worldview actually line up with the Christian worldview, a.k.a. Reality?!

We all have an overall understanding of how we think people, the world and the universe work called a worldview. Most people pick up little pieces of this puzzle from all over the place, and if they ever try to put it together would be surprised to find it not only doesn't make a unified picture, but that most of the pieces don't even fit together. As Christians, we have a true understandi...

The angel who came to Mary told her she'd give birth to the Messiah. But to Zachariah and Elizabeth was born another important figure in the story. John was to be a forerunner for Jesus. He went ahead and prepared the way, getting people ready for what was coming. In what ways can we be forerunners for Jesus? How can we approach those in our lives that might make them more open to the Gospel a...
