The Apostles’ Creed answers that question with just a few simple words: “Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord.” Yet those words contain the very heart of the Christian faith. In this episode, we explore what it means to call Jesus our Savior, God’s unique Son, and Lord of our lives. We’ll discover that Christianity is not built upon an idea or a philosophy—it is built upon a person. Join me as we continue our journey through the Apostles’ Creed and discover why these ancient words still shape the faith, hope, and lives of Christians today. “Our hope is not found in ourselves.

In this first episode of our six-part series, we begin at the very beginning: “I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.” Together, we’ll explore what it means to believe, what it means to call God our Father, why His almighty power brings comfort, and how knowing Him as Creator gives purpose and meaning to our lives. Before we talk about the cross, the resurrection, or the Church, we begin with the One who made us, loves us, and holds us in His hands. Scripture reminds us that our faith is not merely a set of beliefs—it is a relationship with the God who created us and calls us His children. “Sowing seeds of the Gospel, trusting God for the harvest.”™ 🌱✝️ * “Intro/Outro music: Ambient Guitar Magic, courtesy of Transistor.fm (CC BY-SA 4.0 license).”

Most of the Christian life is not lived in dramatic moments. It is lived in ordinary faithfulness—one prayer, one act of kindness, one step of obedience at a time. Together, we’ll explore how Jesus called ordinary people to follow Him, why small acts of faithfulness matter, and how God often works through those who simply keep showing up, even when life is difficult. No matter where you are in your journey, this episode is a reminder that God sees your faithfulness, values your service, and can use even the smallest acts of love for His glory.

In this episode of the Spray United Methodist Church Podcast, we explore the fruit of the Spirit known as self-control. Many people think self-control is simply trying harder or relying on willpower, but Scripture points us to something deeper. True self-control is not produced by human strength alone—it is the work of the Holy Spirit within us. Join us as we reflect on how God shapes our responses to frustration, disappointment, temptation, and the everyday challenges of life. As we surrender more of ourselves to Christ, the Spirit produces a calm strength that allows us to respond with grace instead of simply reacting to circumstances.
