Living Word Audio Podcast

  Most people spend their lives trying to answer one question: "Who am I?" The world encourages people to find their identity in their achievements, relationships, careers, failures, or past experiences. The Bible offers a completely different answer. Through Jesus, believers receive a brand new identity that is not earned and cannot be taken away.  Hey there, Welcome to Living Word! We&...

God Is Not Looking at Your Failures Many believers spend years battling guilt, shame, fear, and feelings of not being enough, even though Jesus already paid the price for their freedom. The death and resurrection of Jesus changed your standing before God, and understanding your identity in Christ can transform the way you pray, think, and live every day. No matter where you've been or what yo...

The battles you’re facing have a divine expiration date. Every struggle, every heartbreak, every battle, and every moment of obedience carries eternal weight.

Heaven is real, Jesus is still changing lives, and God is still calling you into pur...

Motherhood carries a lot more than people see. The pressure, the emotions, the constant responsibility, trying to stay strong for everyone else while quietly fighting your own battles at the same time. Some seasons are beautiful, and some are just hard. Whether you’re raising kids, missing someone you love, walking through tension in your family, or just feeling worn out emotionally, there’s still...

This weekend with Dr. Leif Hetland wasn’t just a message, it was an invitation into a new way of living. He began with a powerful picture of childlike faith, the kind that trusts completely, like a child jumping into a father’s arms. No fear. No hesitation. Just trust. And from that place, he led us into the heart of his message: The Heart of Roaring Lambs. We’re called to be bold. To carry author...

What if the headlines we’re seeing today… were written about thousands of years ago? This Sunday, Pastor Jim took us deep into Scripture and current events to reveal a powerful truth: God’s Word isn’t guessing… it’s guiding. From the rise of global conflict to the growing focus on Israel, he unpacked how biblical prophecy may be unfolding right before our eyes. What stood out most? The Bible doesn...

Pastor Jim unpacked a powerful truth from Romans 9: God is not unjust and His grace is not random. He challenged some common misconceptions about faith, reminding us: You’re not predestined for failure or salvation, that you have a choice. God’s mercy isn’t earned, but it is received through humility and faith. And most importantly, salvation isn’t about what you’ve done, it’s about what Jesus has...

This Easter, Pastor Mac asked a powerful question: What are we really celebrating? It’s more than tradition it’s transformation. The crucifixion reminds us Jesus paid the full price for our past, present, and future. The resurrection is the victory of life over death, in every area of our lives. That means no situation is too far gone. Resurrection power is still available today. But here’s the ke...

In the final message of the Vision Mandate series, Pastor Mac brought clarity and conviction, emphasizing that while believers are redeemed from the curse through Christ, they are not exempt from the consequences of their choices; life and blessing or death and cursing are still determined by how we live. He reinforced that tithing is not about legalism or fear, but about honoring God from a heart...

This weekend, Pastor Mac continued the Vision Mandate series by emphasizing that vision is essential to a believer’s life and purpose. Drawing from the book of Proverbs 29:18, he reminded us that “Where there is no vision, the people perish,” explaining that the most dangerous place a person can live is in the comfort of the status quo, where growth stops and stagnation begins. True vision comes f...

Pastor Mac Hammond reminded us that vision is not optional, it’s a biblical mandate. As the Bible declares in the Book of Proverbs 29:18, without vision people perish. Vision begins when the Word of God shapes our values and the Holy Spirit reveals God’s unique plan for our lives. But that vision isn’t about personal success, it’s about stewardship. Everything we have, our time, gifts, and resourc...

In his second installment of "The Vision Mandate," Pastor Mac reminds us that vision isn’t optional, it’s a command of Scripture. Rooted in Proverbs 29:18, “Where there is no vision, the people perish,” he teaches that without God-given vision, our lives begin to slide backward. But with vision grounded in the Word, we step into healing, prosperity, purpose, and increase. Drawing from Ha...

  This weekend, Pastor Mac Hammond launched "The Vision Mandate," a powerful new series rooted in Proverbs 29:18: Where there is no vision, the people perish. He reminded us that vision is essential; without it, life begins to drift. But when we build on the Word of God and become doers of it, we position ourselves for clarity, strength, and true fulfillment. Drawing from 1st Corinthians...

In week two of Life at the Speed of Prayer, Pastor Ken Olson called us deeper into a dependent, daily walk with God, reminding us that our lives will never rise above the level of our prayer life. Sharing stories from his childhood on the farm to encountering the Holy Spirit at a young age, Pastor Ken illustrated how consistent prayer transforms insecurities into strength and positions us to go fr...

Right now, there is a clarion call to the church and to this generation to pray! So said Pastor Ken in his message this past Sunday entitled, “Life at the Speed of Prayer.” This call to prayer is not for just a few “super-spiritual” people. This call to prayer is for all of us! You see, there’s a lot going on in America and she’s at a critical window of time. If we want to see America fulfill God’...

This past weekend, Pastor Mac gave the third installment of his teaching series entitled, “The Gatekeeper of Power.” Ephesians 1:19 says there is an exceeding greatness of power to usward who believe, yet many are frustrated they do not experience the power of God in their lives. They have yet to learn that their own minds are what controls the power of God flowing through their lives. However, th...

This weekend, Dr. Dennis Burke joined us as our guest minister and delivered a powerful, faith-building message declaring 2026 as “The Year of the Fix.” He challenged us to move beyond resolutions and step into revelation, actively shifting our mindset, reordering what’s out of alignment, and using our God-given authority to speak His Word over every area of life. Through Scripture and personal te...

This weekend marked a sacred and historic moment for Living Word with the induction of Pastor Jim as Senior Pastor. Pastors Mac and Lynne shared from the heart, reflecting on decades of prayer, faith, and trust in God’s call on their son’s life, even in seasons when it seemed unlikely. They spoke of Pastor Jim’s deep preparation, from serving in every area of ministry to his strong grounding in th...
