Faith to Surrender Before the Victory

Bold

What does it look like to live with bold faith? In this episode of The Sharing Grace Podcast, Jay Austin, Jonmark Ragsdale, and John Leathers dive into Acts 3–4 and explore how God used ordinary people like Peter and John to do extraordinary things. From showing up in prayer, seeing brokenness, acting in Jesus’ name, standing firm under pressure, and responding with worship, we discover what biblical boldness really means. Join us as we ask: Where is God calling you to be bolder in your faith?

Fear of God

In this episode of the Sharing Grace Podcast, we explore the story of Barnabas, Ananias, and Sapphira in Acts 4:32–5:11, looking at how generosity, honesty, and the fear of God shaped the early church. Through conversation and reflection, we wrestle with our own temptation to look more spiritual than we are, what it means to fear God more than people, and how we can become modern-day “Barnabas” encouragers who live with integrity and open-handed generosity.

The Ordinary Made Extraordinary

In this episode of The Sharing Grace Podcast, Brandon sits down with John Leathers, Preschool Ministry Director Charissa Brown, and Elementary Ministry Director Tracy Glidden to explore Acts 2 and the powerful story of Pentecost. Together, they discuss how God works through ordinary people, the role of the Holy Spirit in family discipleship, and practical ways parents and grandparents can lead their children toward Jesus. Drawing from the excitement of Summer Blast, this conversation offers encouragement, wisdom, and simple ways to help families recognize God's work in everyday moments.

I Want More

Join Pastors Jay Austin, Brandon Rieb, and Mark Ragsdale as they discuss how Jesus continues to work through ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit. In this episode, they explore what it means to desire more of Jesus in our lives, more of the Holy Spirit's power, and more people coming to know Christ. Be encouraged and challenged to take your next step in God's mission.

As for Me and My House

The final episode of Take the Hill: Journey Through Joshua dives into one of the most powerful declarations in Scripture: “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Pastors Jay Austin and Brandon Rieb unpack Joshua’s final leadership challenge to Israel, exploring spiritual drift, intentional leadership, family discipleship, and the importance of remembering God’s faithfulness. Through practical conversation and biblical insight, this episode challenges listeners to lead themselves first, identify the idols competing for their hearts, and choose daily to build homes centered on Jesus instead of culture.
