We need the Father | Michael Newton

Father's Day is a celebration for some—but for many, it's complicated. In this deeply personal message, Pastor Michael Newton shares his own story of growing up with an absent father and an abusive stepfather, and how God slowly revealed that the answer wasn't to reject the idea of a father—but to discover the heart of a good Heavenly Father. Walking through Mark 10, the story of the rich young ruler, and Paul's encouragement to Timothy, this sermon reminds us that the gospel is not about striving harder, proving ourselves, or earning God's acceptance. Before Jesus challenged the rich young ruler, He looked at him and loved him. Before God changes us, He loves us. Whether you've wrestled with shame, fear, failure, or the feeling of never being enough, this message is an invitation to stop performing and start receiving the Father's love. Because sons and daughters don't earn their place in the family—they receive it through Jesus. Key Scriptures: * Mark 10:17–27 * 2 Timothy 2:1 * Philippians 1:6 No matter your story, your failures are not greater than God's faithfulness. The Father is not standing

Before the Night Comes | Michael Newton

Ecclesiastes | Under the Sun Life is a gift. Life is brief. Life is meant to lead us to God. In this message from Ecclesiastes 11:7–12:8, we walk through Solomon's final appeal to enjoy God's gifts, remember our Creator, and live with eternity in view. As the years pass, our bodies change, our priorities shift, and we're reminded that life moves faster than we think. Yet in the face of aging, uncertainty, and even death, the gospel offers a hope that Ecclesiastes longs for and Jesus fulfills. The problem of Ecclesiastes is death. The answer of Ecclesiastes is Jesus. Join us as we discover how to live in the light before the night comes. Today's podcast is brought to you by Boise Community Church.

Living Faithfully in a Broken System | Michael Newton

Ecclesiastes | Under the Sun In this week’s message from Ecclesiastes 8–9, Michael Newton walks through one of life’s hardest questions: What do you do when life doesn’t make sense? When injustice seems to win, prayers feel unanswered, and outcomes don’t match your faithfulness, Ecclesiastes reminds us that life is broken, unpredictable, and often beyond our control. But even in uncertainty, God remains trustworthy. This sermon explores how cynicism can quietly harden our hearts, why control can never truly give us peace, and how biblical faith is not certainty about outcomes—it’s trust in God’s character. Through the honesty of Solomon’s words and the hope of the gospel, we’re reminded that Jesus entered into our broken world, suffered injustice Himself, and conquered death through the resurrection. If you’re walking through disappointment, unanswered questions, grief, or uncertainty, this message is an invitation to stop anchoring your hope in circumstances and start anchoring it in a faithful Savior. Because even when life is unpredictable, Jesus is still King—and that changes everything. Today's podcast is brought to you by Boise Community Church.

Wisdom through Sorrow | Michael Newton

Ecclesiastes | Under the Sun This week we continue our journey through Ecclesiastes with a powerful and honest message from Ecclesiastes 7: Wisdom is often forged in sorrow, not comfort. In a culture that constantly tells us to avoid pain, chase comfort, and stay positive, Solomon invites us into a deeper truth: some of the greatest formation in our lives happens through grief, disappointment, waiting, and hardship. Together we’ll explore how God meets us in suffering, how wisdom grows in difficult seasons, and how Jesus redeems even the broken places of our lives. Join us for worship, communion, and a reminder that even in the storm, God is still present, still working, and still bringing beauty from brokenness.
