Living Word Audio Podcast

It’s easy to get caught in the do’s and don’ts of religion. Read the Bible, go to church, walk in love, prioritize God… the list can go on! God, however, never intended for us to be so focused on religion that we forget about our relationship with Him. Refocusing on Jesus changes our perspective in life. Jesus didn’t stay in heaven and dictate what we should and shouldn’t do from above. He came do...

One of the mysteries of the kingdom of God is redemption. What is redemption? How are we redeemed and what are we redeemed unto? If answering these questions seems difficult, know that God never intended for redemption to remain a mystery. He wants you to have a revelation of His redeeming power at work in your life and your part in the timeline of redemption. That’s why Pastor Mac continued to ta...

In talking about the ten mysteries of the kingdom, Pastor Mac said there is one mystery that is fundamental to our Christian pursuit, because it provides the larger context within which the other mysteries are going to make sense. In order for us to understand the big picture, he said, we must start with the mystery of The Plan of Redemption . Redemption being defined as recovering something that...

Understanding life and understanding God is not a prerequisite for successful living. In fact, how you handle the unknown will impact your life tremendously. Unfortunately, when some people lack understanding, they lash out against God rather than lean into Him. That’s why Pastor Mac started a series this past weekend entitled Mysteries.     The kingdom of God is filled with mysteries. Thankfully,...

If you want to see change in your life, it starts on the inside. That’s why Pastor Mac took time this past weekend to talk about the importance of taking care of your soul, which includes your mind, will, and emotions. If your thinking isn’t right, the rest of your life will remain in turmoil. When you can get your thinking aligned with God’s Word, peace will begin to come in other areas. Our Link...

Trust God in all things. That’s easier said than done. So how do we trust God in our daily lives, whether or not things look the way we think they should? It starts by understanding the importance of our imagination. Every thought we allow to become a pattern of thinking prepares us for our future, so we need to be aware of what thoughts we allow to stay in our minds. If you want to know more abou...

Dr. Dennis Burke reminded us that although we are living in perilous times, there are two ways we can handle them. First, we could let our selves be lulled to inactivity through fear of what is to come. Alternatively, we could latch onto the truth that God has provided us all we need to walk through this life well. You see, the enemy knows more about your ability to wreck havoc against him than yo...

Pastor Mac was back this weekend and had an awesome message reminding us that what is happening in America and the world right now has not taken God by surprise. His promises haven’t changed and His power is still at work in the world.   Your job isn’t to worry about what comes next, but to keep your eyes on Jesus. Recognize that we are living in the end of times. Now more than ever, God needs us...

When some people think of God, they have a judgmental view. They see someone who points their finger at wrongdoing and sends judgment when someone sins. However, that view of God is not what God intended for us to have. Pastor Jamey exposed the lies of condemnation this week by examining something from the Old Testament: the ark of the covenant.   The ark of the covenant was an example given in Ex...

“While you feast, God fights.” –Pastor Jamey What a way to kick off 2021. Pastor Jamey jumped into a series titled House Party. He showed us that just as the Israelites were feasting in their homes the night of the Passover, God fights for us while we feast. These were the Israelites who hadn’t seen God move personally centuries ago, but they had heard about it. Now it was their time to experience...

The New Year is around the corner, and many people use that as an opportunity to reset their lives. That’s why Pastor Jim preached this past weekend on the power of making small changes within your regular habits. As you make small changes to your habits, you slowly change your identity from someone with bad habits to someone making better choices. As you become someone who makes better choices, y...

As Pastor Mac started his Christmas series, he had a question: In what are you placing your trust?     You see, who or what you trust becomes a stronghold in your life. Your trust can be in something in this world that makes you feel at ease. Your trust can also be placed in the Lord. When your trust is in the Lord, you are less concerned about your timeline and when prayers should get answered. Y...

God never intended for our only spiritual growth to come through reading the Word. God wants us to understand how His Word and His Spirit work together and how we, in turn, can be disciplined and sanctified—body, soul, and spirit.  That is what Dr. James Tan ministered on this weekend: the complete work of God’s Word and His Spirit in us and through us. It’s well worth listening to more than once....

Commitment pushes you toward any goal that you have here on earth. We need to be utterly, ruthlessly committed in our pursuit of God and His Word for that is what helps us push through difficulty.    Our commitment at Living Word is to continue enabling you to love God and love people well. Pastor also laid out the key ways we are going to do that in 2021 and beyond and how your commitment will he...

At times, we can get caught up in ministry-related pursuits to such an extent that we ignore our relationships with unbelievers—and yet those relationships are key. God wants to draw those people to Him. We have a part to play in helping Him do so. Each one of us can develop a strategy for influencing and reaching the unbelievers in our lives who don’t yet know God.  Our Links– • Instagram: https:...

As we understand God’s love for us as individuals, we will better be able to understand how much God loves the people around us. As we understand how much God loves others, it gives us even more motivation to serve them. The best way to impact others within our church family is by serving them. It is through serving at church that our gifts and talents can be developed, and we can work effectually...

How do we experience heaven on earth as a family? We kicked off our new vision series, Heaven on Earth, with Pastor Brandon and Heidi Lyles reminding us how vital it is to retreat into the Father to find the grace we need to create a healthy family. Instead of stressing out over how to nurture our families, we can first be nourished by our Heavenly Father in order to take care of our families bett...

"When history is taught accurately, we learn the good, the bad, and the ugly." –David Barton Society has done a good job at reminding America about its past failures and current problems. What we haven’t heard, however, is what America has done right. This past weekend, guest speaker David Barton shed light on a different perspective of America. He shared the history behind the phrase Am...

Pastor Mark Hankins shared  about how generosity impacts our lives. He showed us how to recognize supernatural opportunities regarding generosity, how much fun it is to be generous as well as the purpose, promise, and result of this kind of generosity.  Our Links– • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingwordmn • Twitter: https://twitter.com/LivingWordMN • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/li...

Michele Bachmann took us through the truth about America’s history as well as behind-the-scenes truths about what is currently happening in America.   As we come closer to Election Day, it’s important we keep praying for hidden sins to be exposed and that truth would be revealed. We don’t want chaos and confusion to reign! We want to stand up for the freedom that people wanted to pursue when they...
