The Pines Church Podcast

Where there is unity, God commands His blessing! Once we learn to unify as one body, one church, and one people, God can do the impossible. Each person has a specific role to play in the body, each part is necessary. Tune in today as Pastor Matt and Jess share with us!

They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?” Sometimes we can be on the right road but still struggle to fully commit to our relationship with Jesus. Are we pressing into the Lord while we navigate life or are we finding satisfaction in the routine of life? Join us today as our very own Jake Atwood brings the Wo...

Psalm 89:7 says, “God is greatly to be feared in the assembly of the saints, and to be held in reverence by all those around Him.” Revival begins in the church when we bring reverence back. He is worthy of all the honor and glory! Tune in today as we learn the importance of truly fearing the Lord.

Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Today we wrap up the two part series on faith. Join us as Pastor Matt shares biblical truths that highlight the importance of having faith in our daily lives.

Parenting may not always be easy, but it’s worth it. Today we’ll be covering what the Bible says about raising children. We’ll touch on humility, time, affirmation, and discipline. As Andy Stanley said, “Your greatest contribution to the Kingdom of God may not be something you do but someone you raise.”

The Bible says that we are adopted into the royal family of the King of King’s, we are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ! We have the authority that Jesus has given us. Many times we forget that the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives inside of us. Tune in today as we share on priesthood.

Join us today as we continue talking about serving. Jesus commands us to serve, but not half-heartedly.  The Bible tells us to serve the Lord with gladness! Once you experience the joy of serving, you’ll never want to be served again. What’s holding you back?

Everyone wants to serve until they are treated like a servant. While Jesus was on the earth, He set an example to serve. His actions taught that no matter the rank or authority, one never graduates from servanthood. Tune in today as Pastor Matt breaks down the topic of servanthood!

Jesus turns tragedy into testimony. The Bible says that we overcome the enemy by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony.  Today we have the honor of hearing from our very own Jake Atwood as he shares part of his testimony and the importance of family.

Jesus said that we must deny ourselves, pick up our cross, and follow Him. Oftentimes we assume that those are the same thing, but they aren’t. Today we talk about what it means to deny yourself and to pick up your cross daily.  We’d love for you to join us!

Jesus shares three parables consecutively about the lost in the Gospel. It’s clear to see that Jesus cares about the lost. We as a church should not only be ready to welcome the lost,  butto  seek them out and love them! The Bible tells us that there is more rejoicing in Heaven over one lost sinner who repents and turns to God than ninety-nine others who are righteous. Tune in today as Pastor Matt...

We were created to be in relationship with one another. Being in community is a crucial part to our walk with Christ! We must not forget that God will not only use us to change lives, but He will use lives to change us. Join us today as Pastor Matt introduces our brand new series!

Today marks our first anniversary as a church! We are so grateful for each and every person that has been a part of this. Pastor Matt will be sharing what God has done this last year and what our vision as a church is for 2022!

Today Pastor Matt & Jess are talking all about marriage. Ways to improve your relationship with your spouse and practical steps to implement into your life that will strengthen your love and relationship as a couple!

Oftentimes, our experiences and expectations can deter us from receiving how God is moving in the present time. We can’t put new wine into old wine skins. He’s doing a new thing! Let us not be stuck in the past but be filled with faith and expectancy to see God move in the here and now. Tune in today to be strengthened and encouraged!

Our relationship with Christ requires discipline and work, it’s a continual and daily process of growing near to Him. As Colossians 2:7 says, “Let your roots grow into Him, and let your lives be built on Him. Then your faith will grow strong in truth.”

We hope you had an amazing Christmas! Tune in today for an encouraging and challenging word from Pastor Matt. He shares with us how we can grow emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually in the New Year!

As it is said in John, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” Jesus came to save this world and bring light to the darkness.  He is the light of the world.  As Christmas draws near, what will we choose to do with Jesus the light of the world?

Many times in our lives, God is working in the things unseen. He’s working in the background. But that doesn’t mean He isn’t working. Often God will do something inside of you before He does it for you.

Choose to rejoice today! Did you know rejoice is mentioned 257 times in the Bible? Tune in this week as we wrap up our series on gratitude.

Oftentimes, it can be easy for us to be so focused on what’s ahead that we forget to remember what God has done for us in the past. This week Pastor Matt will be sharing about the dangers of complaining while also showing us how gratitude can unlock the fullness of life!

How can we live a life of gratitude? It starts with us recognizing that whatever we have, big or small, God can still use it for His glory. It takes a perspective of thanksgiving and faith to see that God can do a lot with our little!

We live out who we believe we are, and when we believe we were made ON purpose, we then begin living FOR a purpose. This week, Pastor Matt will be sharing about how each of our gifts and talents plays into the purpose we were created to fulfill!

We are reborn as sons and daughters of God! So, what does that mean for our identity? How does that truth shift our day to day life? Tune in today as we talk about our identity as children of God.
