Echo Grace Church Podcast

When it comes to Jesus, are you hesitant to tell the truth to those that need to hear it? What does it take to defend the truth the Jesus is God and the only way to life, both here on earth and eternally? Today, Jarrod brings us what it means to have boldness in this next episode of the Truth Softener series.

What's the environment like at your workplace? Can you openly talk about God? If your workplace is like most, it's probably hard to imagine that God could have a place there, but as Matt Reed reminds us today in "Everybody's Job", this is territory that God wants to claim for His very own.

Do you ever find it hard to talk to others about your faith? What about talking to your neighbors? In this episode, Pastor Matt gives us some great insight into how we should follow the Lord's example in sharing our belief in Christ Jesus.

As we heard last week, it certainly isn't easy to tell someone a truth that they may not want to hear, but is it even harder to hear such a truth about ourselves? Could it be possible that there are blind spots that we need to be shown?

Have you ever found yourself in a tight situation where you had to tell someone a hard truth? Did you soften things up too much, or did you deliver a blow that was a bit too abrasive?

No one would debate how important it is to have regular check-ups with your doctor, because we all know that our physical health is crucial to our day-to-day function. But have you considered that your spiritual health may be even more important?

Everyone knows that it's important to visit the doctor to find out how we're doing physically, but when was the last time you took an inventory spiritually? In this episode, Jarrod looks at the last few verses of Acts 2 in "A Spiritual Physical".

It's not uncommon for people who've never been to Grace Community Church before to notice that things are done a bit differently here. The music is a bit louder. The pastor wears jeans. People lift their hands sometimes to worship the Lord during the music...

Last week, Pastor Jarrod took a look at the first words of the church as presented in Acts chapter 2. The sermon that the apostle Peter gives in Acts 2, as we saw last week, gives us God's declaration about His son, Jesus. This week Pastor Jarrod concludes this sermon.

In Acts 2, following the arrival of the Holy Spirit, Peter delivers a sermon that essentially gives birth to the church. In that sermon, Peter delivered some primary truths about Jesus that pointed to the fact that he indeed was the long-awaited Messiah...

The book of Acts makes reference several times to being "filled with the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2:4, 4:8, 4:31, among others). What does the spiritual experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit actually look and feel like?

Do you ever doubt? If we're honest about our Christian faith, we'd probably admit that doubt has, at some point, played a role in this walk with Jesus. But did you know that you're in good company? Even the disciples of Jesus were faced with doubt...

If what happened later in the week was any indication, the vast majority of those that witnessed Jesus riding into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday were acknowledging him as messiah only to fill their own personal agenda...

Speaking in tongues is an often disagreeable subject within the body of Christ. Some have gone so far as to say that it is essential for salvation while other deny its present-day existence altogether. But where does the Bible stand on speaking in tongues?

Revival comes into our lives in the leading and timing of the Holy Spirit. But what can we do to prepare for it? In the first two parts of Ready Yourself, Jarrod asked us if we had a vision for revival in our lives, and if we treasured our standing in Christ...

It's an easy task to speak about heaven, especially when we see what the Bible says about it. But when we consider hell, especially in a post-modern world, the conversation is more tense, if the conversation continues at all.

You've prayed. You've hoped. You've even dreamed, but revival still hasn't come. What is a believer to do when this happens? Is there anything that we've missed, or anything we need to be doing?

It's been said that God will never stop being holy just to save people. While this may come across as a sobering reality, God's holiness is inherent to Him in the same way that light and heat are inherent to the sun. A rare communion podcast...

Even among Christians, revival is an often misused and misunderstood word. What does true revival mean, and what does it look like? Pastor Jarrod takes us through the first part of a look at true revival in "Ready Yourself".
