Saint Barnabas Anglican Church Podcast

Join in the wonder of the women who went to Jesus's tomb and found that He is risen!

The Rev. Greg McBrayer - The Passion commemorated on Good Friday is not an abstraction. Christ took the punishment we earned in order to wipe out slate clean.

Dcn. John Heffron - Maundy Thursday receives its name from the command of Christ that His followers love one another as Christ loved his followers. How does that apply to Christians today?

The Rev. Andrew Petta - Preludes give a taste of what's to come. Palm Sunday serves as a prelude of sorts to Holy Week and Easter, with a foretaste of the sorrows and joys commemorated in the following week.

The Rev. Andrew Petta - Jesus asks more of His followers than to simply add Him to the to-do list.

The Rev. Andrew Petta - Today's reading from Joshua guides us on orienting ourselves towards God's will.

The Very Rev. Ryan Reed - As Christians, we're called to imitate Christ and, to some degree, those who themselves imitate Christ.

Dcn. John Heffron - We already know that Jesus totally changes the rules of the game... Those who suffer now will be rewarded in Heaven! But how do we bring this message to a world turned upside-down?

The Rev. Andrew Petta - Jesus often had audiences following him around and crowding him to try and hear him preach. Today's churches aren't so fortunate. How do we reach the lost when they don't clamor to us?

The Rev. Greg McBrayer - Evangelism isn't relegated to missionaries in some far-off land or on some short-term mission trip (though those things are important). Your mission field is right where you are... Including your workplace.

As Christians, we are called to evangelize and to share the good news. But what does that look like? How do we go out in our communities and grow Christ's church?

The Rev. Andrew Petta - Recognizing the signs and signals relating to evangelism.

(The Rev. Andrew Petta) Sharing the Gospel of Christ can be a treat! Like sharing ice cream... Yes, really!

The Rev. Andrew Petta - As we celebrate Christmas, we think about where we see Jesus. For us, he's no longer a helpless little baby in a manger, but his presence is no less tangible!

The Rev. Greg McBrayer - How do we handle it when God presents His plans and expectations to us? We daily pray, "Thy will be done," but do we always gladly accept His will in our lives? We look to Mary for an example of what to do when confronted with God's will.

The Rev. Andrew Petta - What do you picture when you hear the word, "rejoice?"
