episode The Name - Exodus 20:7 artwork

The Name - Exodus 20:7

What does it really mean to take the name of the Lord in vain?  Pastor Ian Crooks walks through Exodus 20:7 and reveals that this commandment reaches far deeper than profanity or careless speech. God’s name represents His character, holiness, authority, and reputation. This sermon explores how we can misuse His name not only with our words, but with our worship, witness, and the way we live while claiming to belong to Him. At the same time, it points us to the beauty, weight, and goodness of God’s name — the name above every name. 📖 Passage: Exodus 20:7 🎙️ Sermon Title: The Name 🗓️ Preached May 17, 2026 📍 Preached at Free Grace Vernon Whether you’re new to Christianity or have followed Jesus for years, this message invites us to consider how we speak about God, represent Him to the world, and respond to His holiness. #Exodus20 #TheName #TenCommandments #ChristianSermon #BibleTeaching #FreeGraceVernon #IanCrooks #Faith #JesusChrist #ExodusSeries

episode Exodus 20:4-6 - Beyond the Image artwork

Exodus 20:4-6 - Beyond the Image

What happens when we try to make God manageable, visible, or shaped in our own image? In this sermon, Beyond the Image, we explore Exodus 20:4–6 and the second commandment — uncovering how idols are far more than carved statues. They can be anything that distorts who God truly is. Pastor Ian Crooks explores humanity’s tendency to reshape God according to our preferences, emotions, culture, and comfort, while calling us back to worship the living God as He has revealed Himself. This passage confronts counterfeit worship, exposes the danger of reducing God to something controllable, and points us toward the beauty of knowing Him rightly. 📖 Passage: Exodus 20:4–6 🎙️ Sermon Title: Beyond the Image 📍 Preached at Free Grace Vernon Whether you’re exploring Christianity, wrestling with questions about worship, or wanting a deeper understanding of the Ten Commandments, we hope this message encourages and challenges you.

Exodus 20:3 - No other gods

What does it really mean to have “no other gods” in a world full of distractions, ambitions, and competing priorities? In this message on Exodus 20:3, Pastor Ian Crooks unpacks the first commandment and reveals how it speaks directly into our everyday lives.  This isn’t just about ancient idols—it’s about the subtle ways we place our identity, security, and hope in things other than God. Through this teaching, you’ll be challenged to examine what truly holds first place in your heart and see how God’s command is ultimately an invitation into freedom, not restriction.  Discover why God alone is worthy of our worship, and how reordering our lives around Him leads to lasting joy and purpose.  📍 Recorded at Free Grace Vernon  🔔 Subscribe for more sermons, teachings, and resources  📺 Watch more: YouTube.com/FreeGraceVernon  #FreeGraceVernon #Exodus20 #NoOtherGods #TenCommandments #Faith #Gospel #ChristianLiving

Exodus 20:1-17 - The Ten Words

The Ten Words | Exodus 20:1–17 | Ian Crooks What are the Ten Commandments really about—and why do they still matter today?  In this sermon, Pastor Ian Crooks walks through Exodus 20:1–17, often called “The Ten Words,” revealing that these commands are not merely rules to follow but a reflection of God’s character and His desire for a relationship with His people. Rather than a checklist for moral performance, they expose our need for grace and point us to the freedom found in Him.  Whether you’re familiar with the commandments or exploring them for the first time, this message invites you to see them in a deeper, more transformative way.  📍 Free Grace Vernon  🔔 Subscribe for weekly sermons and teaching  🎧 Also available on all major podcast platforms  #TenCommandments #Exodus20 #BibleTeaching #FreeGrace #Sermon #Christianity #Faith #GospelCentered

episode How can a loving God send people to hell? artwork

How can a loving God send people to hell?

How can a loving God send people to hell?  It’s one of the most honest—and difficult—questions people ask about the Christian faith. In this seminar, Pastor David Bootsma walks through what the Bible actually teaches about God’s love, justice, and the reality of hell.  Rather than avoiding the tension, this seminar and Q&A leans into it—exploring how God’s character is perfectly both loving and just, and how the gospel offers a real and hopeful answer. You’ll be challenged to think deeply, wrestle honestly, and see how grace stands at the center of it all. Whether you’re skeptical, searching, or looking to better understand your faith, this seminar invites you to consider the bigger picture of who God is and what He has done for us in Christ.  📍 Recorded at Free Grace Vernon  🔔 Subscribe for more sermons, teachings, and resources  📺 Watch more: YouTube.com/FreeGraceVernon  #FreeGraceVernon #Christianity #FaithQuestions #Gospel #Theology #HeavenAndHell #Grace

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
