Ep #118 God in Washington D.C.

As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America, Gary Froiland takes us on a journey back to the nation's beginnings to uncover the true intentions behind its founding. Together, we examine the founding documents, the words of America's leaders, and the inscriptions carved into the monuments of Washington, D.C., all of which bear witness to the central role God played in the birth of this nation. We also explore the truth behind one of the most misunderstood phrases in American history: "the separation of church and state." Often claimed to be found in the First Amendment, we'll discover what the Constitution actually says, where the phrase originated, and what the founders truly intended. From the groundbreaking colonial charters to the revered Declaration of Independence, the historical evidence reveals that acknowledgment of God was woven into the very foundation of America. Join us for a timely and thought-provoking message that is both encouraging and educational as we explore "God in Washington D.C."

Ep #117 Transformational Prayer

How do you respond when God's plans don't make sense? In his previous message, Embracing God's Plans, John Grams introduced us to the prophet Habakkuk, a man who struggled to understand why God seemed to allow evil to flourish. Like many of us, Habakkuk brought his questions honestly before the Lord. Now, in the final chapter of the book, we witness an incredible transformation. Habakkuk's circumstances have not changed...but his heart has. What made the difference? Prayer. As we journey through Habakkuk 3, we will discover how genuine prayer can move us from confusion to confidence, from fear to faith, and from questioning God's plans to trusting His character. Join us as we uncover the life changing truths found in "Transformational Prayer."

Ep #116 The Legacy of a Father

Father's Day. For some, it is a day to celebrate a dad who has been a source of strength, guidance, and love. For others, it is a painful reminder of someone who is absent...or someone whose choices left wounds that still remain. What do you do with Father's Day when your father is missing? What if he was never there? What if the relationship is complicated, painful, or broken? In this message, Josh turns to Scripture and examines three very different fathers whose lives still have something to teach us today. Through their successes, failures, and legacies, we discover lessons that speak to both the hurts and hopes surrounding fatherhood. Whether you are carrying painful memories, honoring a faithful father, or striving to become a better dad yourself, this message offers biblical encouragement and practical wisdom that can impact generations.

Ep # 115 Naaman

We all have those moments when God throws us a curveball. We expect life to go one way, only to find ourselves facing something completely different. In those moments, we are often left scratching our heads and asking, "Lord, what are You doing?" That is exactly where we find ourselves today in 2 Kings 5. Here we meet Naaman, the mighty commander of the Syrian army. Though feared by his enemies and respected by his king, Naaman has a problem that no amount of power, wealth, or military success can solve: he has leprosy. When he hears of a prophet in Israel who can heal him, he sets out with certain expectations about how things should unfold. But when God's answer comes, it is nothing like what Naaman had imagined. Faced with an unexpected command, Naaman must decide whether he will trust his own understanding or simply obey. As we walk through this remarkable account, we will discover that God's ways are often different from our own. The real question is: How do we respond when God asks us to do something we weren't expecting? What if His plan is better than ours? Buckle up and join us as we take a look at "Naaman."

Ep #114 Jericho Road: Part II

As we continue our Walk with Jesus alongside Jim Barnhart, we arrive at one of the most significant moments in the life of Christ: His triumphal entry into Jerusalem. As Jesus rides into the city on a humble donkey, He fulfills prophecies written centuries before, providing powerful evidence of His identity as the promised Messiah. Yet this event is far more than a historical fulfillment. Within these eleven verses, we find practical truths that still speak to our lives today. Jesus is not merely a distant King who conquered sin and death. He is a personal Lord who desires a relationship with each one of us. In this message, Jim shares seven lessons we can learn from Mark 11:1–11 as we prepare to enter the final week before the crucifixion. Join us as we continue down the "Jericho Road: Part II."
