Saints‘ Hill Church Podcast

Do you fully need to understand a culture in order to reach it? Do you need to be a cultural critic to adequately make the argument for Christ? How intelligent does somebody have to be to lead someone to Christ? This past Sunday, Alex Rettmann continued on in our "House of Acts" series. He spoke to us out of Acts 17 where we see how Paul evangelized and engaged with culture. This poses the questio...

This week we picked back up in our series going through the book of Acts! - Bria Wolter walked us through Chapter 16. She showed us, with Paul being a role model, and the spirit of Jesus through us that "A free people, free people!" - Therefore, we have the invitation to see Victory in and around us. Bria reminded us that: God, and God alone, is the one that defines us! Not our circumstances or wh...

This past Sunday, Alex Rettmann shares some new year prophetic insight that we believe the Lord is calling us into for 2021. Seeing what the Lord is saying for the year is important because we can be aware of Holy Spirit invitations. These invitations allow us to stay focused on what Jesus is doing in our midst.  For the year 2021, we believe the Lord is inviting us into a renewed focus on healing...

Hey Saints Hill! This past Sunday was such a sweet family moment bringing in the New Year together! We had a gathering of worship, reflection (thanksgiving) and dreaming (prophecy).  Alex Rettmann led us through a time of thanksgiving. To look back on the year 2020 and realize all that the Lord has done and taught us! Then we heard some awesome testimonies! Lastly, Bria Woltor led us through and a...

This Sunday was our Christmas gathering, where We ended our series “Signs Point!” It has been a beautiful time of being reminded what Christmas time really means for us as believers. A time of learning and seeing the prophetic signs that all point to Jesus which ultimately lead to our relationship with Him. This week, Alex Rettmann, shows us that the Magi were that way. The Magi had the ability to...

Thanks for continuing on with us on in our Advent series: Signs Point. Alex Rettmann walks us through a coming messiah prophecy found in Isaiah 9. This passage reminds us of what Christmas really is all about; That the antidote for a life that feels unclear/gloomy is God himself coming to us and setting up his "Government" in us, to bring great joy.  We learn that the single thing that will accomp...

This Sunday we started our Advent Series: "Signs Point". As a family, we will be looking through the moments in the Bible that prophesy and point to the Messiah coming. In looking at these signs we will find out what they really say about Jesus and therefore what that means for humans. --Physical signs point to a deeper heavenly relationship that we are invited into.-- Alex Rettmann walks us throu...

In this bonus teaching to cap our Vision Series, Andoni Montaño walks us through the practical ways we steward honor, and why it is so important that we are secure in who we are as children of God - not needy of expectance because we already have it - in this culture of celebration and honor. Let's dive deeper into what it means to honor, and how we live in a culture of honor. 

We join Alex Rettmann to dive into our 10th, and last, value in the vision series. Legacy is a handing down of the shared history, victory and culture of a place so that the next generation starts where you finished. Our goal is to leave a spiritual inheritance for those who come after us to enjoy and receive, and that they would go further with the Father as they stand on our shoulders. 

This Sunday we continue our Vision series with our ninth core value. Alex Rettmann shows us through the early church we see the Church actually is a family. That it was designed to be an infrastructure of service and Hosting the Lords presence. He reminds us that the church is not just a 501c3 or to be ran like a "business" but instead a family that celebrates greatness and makes The Presence of G...

This week we had the honor to hear from one of our Saints' Hill elders - Jim Traut. Through intimacy with the Father, and a deep love for the scriptures, Jim walks this core value with personal authority and shares with us from that place. The Scriptures are authoritative and tell us the truth that brings freedom. May we walk in truth and freedom as we submit to the way of Jesus and His Word. 

We continue in our vision series with the kick-off of our 10 core value teachings. Bria Wolter introduces this section of our series with our first core value: God is Good. "God is Good" is so much more than a platitude, it's a deep trust in God's character and intentions towards us. We spend this week reflecting on just how good He is, and what our lives look like in response. 

As we continue our vision series Alex Rettmann reminds us that if we want to see Newberg transformed we need our minds to be renewed.  Through a strong identity in Christ we are able to think renewed and be transformed.  Alex walks us through the importance of agreeing with who God says we are in Christ, and not who we used to be.   We hope that this message encourages and strengthens you.  That i...

Church Family! We are so excited because, this past Sunday, we started our Vision Series! This is one of our favorite times of the year; Where we go back to our basics, revisit, and dive even deeper into our vision and values as our church! - Psalm 112 says "Blessed are those who fear the Lord who find great delight in His commands" -- Alex Rettmann shares how for us this year, "The Lord is going...

This past Sunday, Alex Rettmann shared how, in this time, we must gain a heart of wisdom! Psalm 90 teaches us how by "numbering our days" -- Life here on Earth is but a vapor compared to eternity! So we must have Eternity in mind, move from the fear of death, and onward to the Love of Christ, found in the promise of Resurrection! So fear not! Blessings, Joy, and Strength to you!

This week we had the opportunity to hear from Bria Wolter! In this cultural unknown/unrest, like a pandemic, it may seem easy to fall back into a "survival mode" or mentality. However, Bria encourages us to anchor ourselves in hope and dream again! Survival thinks and operates inward, but a heart and mind seeking out Revival operates outward! Blessings and Strength from Jesus over you while you li...

This week, Jacob Vigil talks with us about how "What you align yourself with, determines where you go in life" - Having a True Biblical Worldview matters so you know how to discern what is going on in our cultural moment. He chats through the comparison between the true Gospel vs. the Social Justice Gospel.   Blessings and grace to walk through Truth that sets you free!!

Peace is not the absence of conflict or hurry; Peace is the presence of a Person, Jesus.   In this talk, Alex Rettmann shares with us that in this current time, we are to be people that host peace, and peace is a Person. That our heavenly peace, that we are to give away is based on proximity to Jesus, and not just activity or the lack thereof.   Alex also shares, via 1 Timothy, that a key ingredie...
