The Uncommon Truth

This week we're diving into what it means to truly forgive those who've hurt us, and why it's one of the most important parts of our christianity. We've all been hurt by others, and how we deal with the anger, wounding and offense plays a huge role in the depth and length of that pain. What does Jesus say about forgiveness, and is it a must?   Connect with the show: Email  uncommontruthpodcast@gma...

The message point "Follow me as I Follow Christ" is very unique to our church and at the same time a truth that many christians have a hard time with.

Are you trying to do your Christian walk on your own, or is there someone who is f...

Are you becoming more like the world, or is the world becoming more like you? Do you surround yourself with the world to the extent that it influences who you and causes you to stumble? Jesus has called us to live righteously, and that doesn't include imitating the culture around us. How can we take steps towards loving the world while not being of it?   Connect with the show: Email  uncommontruth...

In Christianity many people claim to be 'free in Christ,' while they hide their sin. What good does it do to claim you're free when you're not? In today's scripture Jesus challenges the religious leaders to step into true freedom. In order to do that, they need to step out of self-deception, be honest with Jesus, and then let Him set them free. Are we willing to do the same?   Connect with the sho...

Jesus was very passionate about the temple being a place of holiness. He displayed huge amounts of emotion, and was driven to purify His Father's temple. Now we are His temple, so why do we think zeal won't consume Him when we allow darkness into our lives? Are we truly aware of the importance of being a holy sanctuary for the Lord?   Connect with the show: Email  uncommontruthpodcast@gmail.com wi...

The rich young ruler approached Jesus and asked a very common question. However, when we look at society today, it's quite clear that very few people have listened to and understood His response.

Steve and Vicki discuss the importance of making sure that you're bearing good fruit before you teach others how to bear fruit.

So how can you determine what your fruit looks like? How do you know if you're ready to lead others into freedom?    Conn...

This week we're jumping into the teaching of Jesus to trust our Father in Heaven to take care of us. He tells us how valuable we are in His eyes, and from that place we're asked to leave our tomorrows in His hands. However, this is a topic that the western church at large has quite a hard time putting into practice. What would it take to make a lifestyle out of trusting Jesus?   Connect with the s...

This week Steve and Vicki are diving into Luke chapter 1 describing Mary's response to the angel who told her of the privilege to carry God's child. This news must have been such a responsibility and at the same time such a privilege that her response was reflected complete surrender. What does it mean to be a bondservant/bondslave of the Lord?

In his letter to the church in Sardis, Jesus urges the Christians to wake up. They had a great start, but slowly let their light die out. If they don't burn again, He'll remove their names from the book of life!   Have you fallen asleep? Has your Christianity become dull or mundane? Today is the day to wake up. Return to your first love and do the things you did at first. Burn for Jesus once more!...
