SIDERIS PODCAST

What if some of the most important moments of faith happen in the "spaces between"? Mud Rooms are these places "of transition" not completion. These are the places we must cultivate if we are to find God and help others find Him. ALSO, Pastor Dave gives 4 TIPS for navigating the new and unusual waters of Christian Dating. If you aren't already redesigning your "house" while you are in the temporar...

It's our second to last sermon in the series! We get to talk about a room that all of us spend A LOT of time in, yet we never think about it with our theological glasses on. It is probably the most important room to think theologically about because it shapes us and stresses us in so many ways.

What does it mean to have a "guest room" in your life? In this message from our Jesus, My Interior Designer series, we explore how Jesus invites us to create space for others through hospitality, generosity, and what Pastor Dave calls "temporary adoption." Looking at the stories of the Shunammite woman, the Good Samaritan, and examples from our own community, we discover that the guest room is mor...

In this message, we consider: • Why food is one of God's greatest signposts of His goodness • How every meal can become an act of worship • The difference between using food for rejoicing and using it for hiding • What Martha and Mary teach us about distraction and presence • Why Jesus calls Himself the Bread of Life The kitchen is where food is prepared, shared, and enjoyed—but it's also a place...

Luke 12:13-24 -- Every time you find yourself stressed by the question, "Where am I going to put all my stuff?", you are actually stepping into a theological conversation. Moreover, this physical space represents the spiritual tendency toward excessive recreation and the "working for the weekend" mentality. This mindset, rooted in early industrial economic philosophy, suggests that our primary mot...

Revelation 3:14-20 -- In this sermon, Joseph Cox continues the "Jesus, My Interior Designer" series by using the metaphor of a house to explore how God works to transform a person's life. He focuses on the room of the closet discussing such topics as "The Heart as a Storehouse" and "The Significance of Clothing" Scriptures Referenced: Revelation 3:14-20 Luke 2:19 & 2:51 Proverbs 4:20-21 Psalm 119:...

John 13:1-15 -- In this sermon, D.M. Evanger continues his series, Jesus, My Interior Designer, by focusing on the metaphorical "bathroom" of our lives. Using the account of Jesus washing the disciples' feet, he explores the spiritual significance of water, confession, and grace. Big ideas like: The Bathroom as a "Transfer Station" The Difference between Daily Confession vs. Baptism The Mirror Met...

Mark 1:35-38 // What does the metaphorical "bedroom" represent in our lives, habits, priorities? We will discuss... Public vs. Private spaces... Intimacy with God... Healthy Boundaries ... Singleness as the Ideal... Marriage as a Concession... Celebrating the Lookup... The Power of Grace. * MUSIC PLAYLIST -- https://tinyurl.com/fkzpkjwh * SERMON PODCAST -- https://tinyurl.com/2sn3msmn * CONNECT WI...

Luke 7:34 “The Son of Man has come eating and drinking…” What if your dining room is more sacred than you realized? This week at Sideris Church, we explored how Jesus used the table as one of His primary ways of bringing people into grace, friendship, healing, and reconciliation. In the Gospels, Jesus is constantly going to a meal, at a meal, or leaving one. The dining room becomes the place where...

Hebrews 13:1-8 -- Room #2 -- The Living Room The central theme of this teaching series is that Christians are called to let Jesus Christ, as their spiritual "interior designer," intentionally rearrange the priorities, habits, and hospitality of their lives to mirror the kingdom of heaven. The home serves as a metaphor for the human soul and daily conduct. Much like a physical house, your life cont...

Colossians 3:1–4 and Romans 12:1-2 ... Front Porch living makes us much more “incarnational” and “interruptible” but is also much less private and controllable... which is why so many of us moved our lives to the backyard, both literally and spiritually. Listen in on the introductory sermon for this new series as we discuss the big picture and the first "room" in our series on spiritual interior d...

Acts 2 | We've always slowed down to take the meaningful steps from Good Friday to Resurrection Sunday to Ascension Sunday, and this Sunday we've decided to take one more to explore the inauguration of the church on the Hebrew day of Pentecost. Join us as we learn about Pentecost--what it meant for the early Church, and what it means for us today.

We will be taking the Sunday after Resurrection Sunday to discuss the next event in the history of Jesus’ life and the Jesus movement — The Ascension. These days, it is often an overlooked part of the historical account, but it was not for the Apostles or the early church. So come this Sunday to learn about its importance and be reminded of the reason it’s not the full gospel without it! SPOTIFY M...

Join us for a special Easter Sunday service as we reflect on the depth of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. Through scripture, worship, and moments of quiet reflection, we remember the love that was poured out for us and the hope that begins even in the darkest moments. Whether you’re joining from home or exploring faith for the first time, you are welcome here. Service Time: 9:00 AM Location: Sideri...

Philippians 4:10-23 | This Sunday we will explore Pauls final sentences to the Philippians and the *secret* he has buried in his conclusion. We hope you can join us as he helps us wrestle with one of the fundamental challenges of the human life and grasp one of the fundamentals of following Jesus.

Philippians 4:8-9 || Through the pen of Paul, God commands us “Dwell on THESE things.” What are "these things" and what will the effect be? We will come to see that "dwelling" means more than mere passive awareness, but demands our active consideration and reflection. Paul emphasizes that genuine knowledge of the good, the true, and the beautiful requires that we practice such things as well. Cros...

Philippians 4:6-7 |We get to look at a passage that seems almost impossible to live out. It goes like this: "Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." Cross References: Olivia Dean Song: https://open.spotify.co...

Philippians 4:1-9 As a total coincidence we have reached the passage that is the inspiration for the Women's Retreat Philippians 4:4 -- "Rejoice! Again I say Rejoice!" It will be so cool to be of "one mind" with those away on the Retreat and then be able to share in our new and deepening understanding of "Rejoicing in the Lord" when they return!

Philippians 3:20-21 This Sunday we get to look at my favorite topic in all of scripture: the promise of heavenly resurrection bodies. I hope you can join us this Sunday to consider this ultimate promise of God.

Philippians 3:17-21 It's a joy to look up into the heavens with you all each Sunday as we sing and proclaim the mysteries of the gospel, the gospel that assures us there is a kingdom above that God has granted us access to by His mercy and grace. It's a realm our souls long for and one that Paul assures us has the capacity to provide meaning and energy for every single day we pursue it here on ear...

Philippians 3:15-20 -- Paul talks about the need for imitation in the Christians life. But is there also such thing as an "Anti-Mentor?"

Philippians 3:7-14 | On our 11th anniversary as a church God's timing is perfect as we come across this passage that describes the mentality that has so helped us along as we have traversed the last 11 years together as a church plant. It was my awesome mother Heidi who always told me and my sisters growing up: “Do your best and flush the rest” and I never quite realized how biblical this motherly...

Philippians 3:1-11 | We're looking forward to continuing our journey through Philippians this Sunday. If you remember, Pastor Dave provided the context for Paul's warning to the church he had founded: "Watch out! There are religious dogs that have a habit of harassing the gospel communities I establish!" This week we will move on to look at the next logical consideration which is: "And watch out f...

Philippians 3:1-11 | I'm looking forward to our conversations this Sunday as we have finally arrived at Chapter 3 of Philippians! This week we will get to do a whole sermon about dogs! Now, this might not be as cute and cuddly as one might think, but it is sure to be a great conversation about how to avoid the joy-killers that surround us.

Philippians 2:19-30 | This Sunday, we get to look at two men of faith in Philippians 2 -- Timothy and Epaphroditus. These men were used by God to minister to Paul's tangible needs and are also responsible for taking the message of God's Grace to many in their day. For this work Paul honors them both, but what's more, God has honored them in an unbelievable way by preserving their story for us to l...
