So while the metaphor of a boar in a vinyard might not hit home for most of us, it is still important for us to find the wild beast in our life that makes a mess of our spiritual journey. Following this final message from our Jukebox series on the Fruit of the Spirit from Pastor Galen on Self-Control. It really is no one's favorite thing to talk about, but it's a linchpin in our walk with...

Yay! It's everyone's favorite trait to be confronted with, our self-control. Pastor Galen gives us several keys to understanding this final and integral piece of the Fruit of the Spirit to finish off our nine-week series. Looking to watch a full service?

What is your power? Do you know? God equips His people with strengths and gifts, but if we use these the wrong way or our power gets out of control... we can cause serious damage. Pastor Karsten and producer Kasey tackle some questions to ask yourself this week to keep guest speaker Pastor Kenny White's message alive in your mind. Missed the message? Look for the SermonCast on this podcast cha...

Guest speaker Pastor Kenny White gets into the real definition of gentleness: power under control. He shows examples of how Jesus modeled this, and challenged us to recognize how often we let our own power be out of control.

Two key points we chose to go into further from this week's sermon are God's pursuit of us, and our pursuit of God , and what a faithful pursuit looks like on both sides. Pastor Galen guests to unpack his message on Faithfulness, and has some interesting questions for us to ask urselves. Relevant Scripture: Genesis 32: 22-32 Luke 15: 11-32 Galatians 6:1 Galatians 5: 22-23

We know God is faithful, but what does that mean? We know we should be faithful, but what does that look like? This week, Pastor Galen sets out to answer these questions. Join us as we continue our series on the Fruit of the Spirit with another aspect that can be hard to define: faithfulness.

Poducer's Note: In an effort to allow for longer, more in-depth content, as well as work with Nathan and Galen's schedules, this podcast will now air once a month, and run between 30-60 minutes long. We hope this will provide more rich dives into subjects and scripture, and make our publishing more reliable. Remember to subscribe and turn on notifications to get the next episode, and we&#3...

Galen talked about how real goodness can only come from having God in us, so how do we know when our kind or generous actions are goodness and when we have selfish motivations? Karsten and Kasey look at the anatomy of the act of Goodness and how we can keep ourselves in check and make others a priority. Relevant Scripture: Luke 5:31-32 • Matthew 9: 9-13 • Mark 2: 17 (three accounts of the same con...

Listing words like we see in Galatians 5:22-23, they can start to blur together. What's the difference between kindness and goodness? Pastor Galen unpacks some ideas on what makes something good you may not have considered before.

Before conflicting trips, speaking engagments and life separated our dynamic podcast duo, we were two parts into a conversation about the social, cultural and political philosophy of conservatism as it pertains to the worldview and principles of Christianity. Now, finally both in the same room once again, Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters finish the conversation. Confused, go back and check out The...

If you're going to dive deep in the ocean, it's easier with the right equipment. The same thing can be said for diving into the Word of God — like Galen did when looking at the original Greek word for kindness in his sermon this week. Today, we look at a free, not-for-profit resource for in-depth Bible study called biblehub.com. We hope you can use this to discover the intricate and intent...

We continue our series on the Fruit of the Spirit with Kindness. Pastor Galen get's into the nitty gritty of the Greek word for kindness and how much more meaning, message and instruction can be found in Galatians 5:22-23.

WHOA! Pastor Galen's sermon talked about hearing what God has to say to us and being able to pay attention when He speaks in order to experience the Peace Jesus himself left us. Pastor Karsten and producer Kasey take it from there this week diving deeper into what it looks like to experience the Peace Paul is speaking of in Galatians 5:22-23 when describing the Fruit of the Spirit, and what Ch...

Peace is a word that can seem vague, but Pastor Galen unpacks the kind of Peace God has to offer as we continue through our Jukebox series about the Fruit of the Spirit in Galatians chapter 5.

Pastor Karsten spoke on patience this week in our ongoing series based on the fruit of the spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 . We go deeper into building our patience muscles, and unpack a word that Paul uses a LOT in his letter to Galatia: circumcision . It means a lot more than just the ritual act itself. Relevant Scripture: Galatians 2: 7 Galatians 2: 11-16 Matthew 5: 17-19 We'd encourage everyon...

We continue this series covering the Fruit of the Spirit, but in the order of their choosing (thus the title Jukebox). This week, Pastor Karsten covers patience.

Wait? What?! The sermon was about joy , so how did we get talking about crucifying things? Well when you hang with Keith — just like getting real with Paul's words — you're going to have to face the hard part if you want to truly get the joy. Right after Paul lists the Fruit we'll see as a result of walking in the Spirit, he reminds us that "those who belong to Christ Jesus have c...

It's Keith Kautz turn this week to hit the ol' Fruit of the Spirit jukebox, and his pick this week happened to be the next on the list in Galatians 5: 22, and that's JOY! Keith sets up the whole reason Paul is talking bout fruit in the first place before hitting a topic that seems easy to talk about, but has a lot of big questions attached. Like, is God joyful? How do we have joy when...

Another week of a little different format. This time Kieth Kautz visiting the studio with producer Kasey Orr to talk more about Galatians 5 and the fruit of the Spirit. Keith helps lay the groundwork for why Paul is even talking about fruit in the first place! And why is the simple conjunction "but" so important when we flip to Galatians 5:22 in our Bible?

This week Pastor Karsten and producer Kasey Orr dive deeper into the first sermon of the new series featuring the Fruit of the Spirit. In God's love for us, He took risks showing us grace through Christ, especially when we have a habit of accepting that gift... and then turning around and cheapening it by using that freedom "to satisfy our sinful nature." [Galatians 5:13 NLT] Instead...

We kick off our Jukebox series featuring the fruit of the spirit with the first mentioned by Paul in the Galations 5:22-23 passage — love. Paul states in 1 Corinthians the importance and complexity of love, and Pastor Galen adds that one of the most important parts of love is RISK. God takes a risk in love by granting us free will; we take a risk in loving and worshipping God; and finally we take...

One of the themes that connect resent sermon messages and the upcoming series is "fruitfulness." Between recounting an adventure of a trip to the east coast, Pastor Galen and producer Kasey Orr discuss the nature of the "works of the flesh" versus the "fruit of the Spirit" as described in Galatians chapter 5. They talk about the connections between the freedom Pastor...

We hope everyone had a great 4th of July, where we got to celebrate the freedoms we enjoy in this country here on Earth, but Pastor Karsten's message this past weekend was on the more important kind of freedom, that to which we have been called in Christ Jesus. Our challenge this week: try to cultivate the three habits from this week's message into your lives, so we don't get this awes...

Pastor Karsten Sween leads us in a special Fourth of July weekend message. As we celebrate our nation's founding, we remember the worldly freedoms we enjoy today were bought by love, blood and sacrifice. So much the more do we enjoy a freedom that is greater by far thanks to the love, blood and sacrifice of our savior Jesus Christ! But what do we do with that freedom? How are we good stewards...

Pastor Galen finishes out this series on eschatology (end times) by reminding us again why we should care: because we don't know what time we have left. Not to be alarmed, not to be afraid, but in order that we might diligently be fruitful. All through the gospels Jesus made it very clear he was looking for fruitfulness, and not knowing when the master will return, we are called to be better t...
