At Christchurch Miami, we live out the truth that we are a “faith family on mission”—a welcoming community where you can find community, experience grace, and discover purpose. The Christchurch Miami Podcast brings this mission right into your ears and your heart. Each episode features a full sermon, either by Pastor James Drake or Pastor Kent Keller, with the same warmth, authenticity, and biblical clarity you’ll experience at our 11 a.m. Sunday gathering. Whether you’re navigating work, family, school, or the search for meaning in a busy Miami life, our podcast is designed to help you take your next step with Jesus. In it you’ll hear teaching that connects the unchanging truth of the Scripture with everyday life: practical, grounded, hopeful, and rooted in love. The podcast mirrors how, each week at Christchurch Miami, “contemporary music and biblical teaching… connect to everyday life.” Pastors Drake and Keller invite you into their messages with compassion and clarity. You’ll hear them talk about how to know Jesus, love Jesus, and follow Jesus, just as our church exists to “glorify God by helping people know, love and serve Jesus.” Whether you’re just exploring faith, returning to faith, or already walking with Christ, each podcast episode offers a seat at our family table—where you’ll be seen, welcomed, challenged, and encouraged. We believe that godly community and spiritual growth happen not only on Sundays, but through regular rhythms of listening, reflecting, and acting. So as you listen to the Christchurch Miami Podcast, we hope you’ll do more than listen: let the Word stir you, let the truth shape you, and let the Spirit lead you into new steps of service, belonging, and transformation. Join us—because at Christchurch Miami, there’s always room at the table.

episode Is the Bible Really Reliable? - 2 Peter 1:16-18 cover

Is the Bible Really Reliable? - 2 Peter 1:16-18

Can a 2,000-year-old book really stand up to modern scrutiny — or is the Bible just a collection of "cleverly devised myths"? In this eighth sermon in our spring apologetics series What About?, Pastor Kent Keller takes on one of the hardest questions skeptics and Christians wrestle with: is the Bible actually reliable? Kent walks through the textual evidence — comparing New Testament manuscript count and copy-gap against ancient sources like Homer's Iliad and Caesar's Gallic Wars — then turns to the eyewitness testimony of Peter and John themselves. Peter wrote that the apostles "did not follow cleverly devised myths" but were eyewitnesses of Jesus' majesty on the Mount of Transfiguration. John, writing against early Gnostic heresy, insisted he saw Jesus' physical body with his own eyes. And hundreds of resurrection eyewitnesses still living when the gospels circulated were never refuted — not by the religious leaders who hated Jesus, not by the Roman soldiers who crucified Him, not by anyone. But Kent's sharpest challenge is to a culture where 68% of Americans read the Bible less than once a year: if you don't open it, it does you no good. Hebrews 4:12 calls God's Word "living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword" — but only if you read it. 📺 Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AFSTsvUlgg [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AFSTsvUlgg] 📖 Read the blog: https://christchurchmiami.org/blog/2026/06/04/is-the-bible-really-reliable [https://christchurchmiami.org/blog/2026/06/04/is-the-bible-really-reliable]

episode But What About Suffering? Why a Good God Allows Pain - 1 Peter 4:12-19 cover

But What About Suffering? Why a Good God Allows Pain - 1 Peter 4:12-19

If God is all good, all loving, and all powerful — why is there so much sin, suffering, and evil in the world? In this seventh sermon in our spring apologetics series What About?, Pastor Kent Keller takes on the hardest question Christians and skeptics share. From 1 Peter 4:12–19, Kent walks us through three movements: don't be surprised by suffering, don't be unprepared for what comes next, and don't lose sight of the final outcome. The Bible was written by suffering people to suffering people. God himself, in Jesus, entered our suffering first — and the pattern that runs through the whole biblical story is suffering, then judgment, then glory. As former Senator Ben Sasse has said, facing his own stage-four cancer: "There are no maverick molecules in the universe." Nothing in your story is outside God's care. This message lands with Andrew Murray's four anchors for the seasons when you don't know what to do next — and with the gospel reminder that Jesus walked the road of suffering first so that you would not walk it alone. 📺 Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bD-dEwtr84 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bD-dEwtr84]

episode How Do You Pass Faith to Your Kids? - Deut 6:4-9 cover

How Do You Pass Faith to Your Kids? - Deut 6:4-9

How do you pass faith to your kids when life won't slow down? Pastor James Drake — preaching from the field during his current Army Chaplain deployment — answers one of the most pastoral questions parents ask: how do we hand on a living faith in a culture engineered to crowd it out? Drawing on Deuteronomy 6:4-9 — the Great Shema — and Jesus' citation of it in Mark 12:29-30 as the greatest commandment, this message walks through three movements: who actually sits on the throne of our hearts, what it means to love God with everything, and how that love becomes a rhythm woven into ordinary family life — sitting, walking, lying down, rising. The sermon lands not on "try harder" but on the better news of a Savior who fulfilled the Shema we never could and writes it on our hearts from the inside out. "Faith isn't an event you perform. It's a rhythm you live." — Preached at Christchurch Miami on May 17, 2026.

episode Did Faith and Reason Really Get a Divorce? cover

Did Faith and Reason Really Get a Divorce?

What if science and faith were never actually divorced — and the people who told you they were got the story backwards? Pastor Kent Keller takes us through one of the most contested cultural narratives of our day: the story that science and the Christian faith are at war. Drawing on Genesis 1, Psalm 19, and the work of modern thinkers like John Lennox, this message moves through three movements: how Bible-believing Christians actually built modern science (Galileo, Kepler, Newton, Pascal, Faraday), how the cosmos itself testifies to a Creator (anthropic principle, fine-tuning, the genetic code), and where science reaches its limit — culminating in a Mother’s Day landing on Psalm 139 and the truth that a mother’s love for an unborn child she has never met is the closest thing in this life to the unconditional love of God. “Science can tell you a lot about what and how. Science can tell you nothing about who and why. And for that you need God.” — Preached at Christchurch Miami on Mother’s Day, May 10, 2026.

episode Don't All Religions Lead to God? | John 14:6 cover

Don't All Religions Lead to God? | John 14:6

Don't all religions lead to the same place? If you're following Jesus, you've probably been asked that question — by a coworker, a family member, maybe even your own quiet doubts. On Missions Sunday, special guest Missionary Edwin Martinez — who has spent 50 years training evangelists across Latin America and the Muslim world — sits with us in that question and walks us back to what Scripture actually says. From John 14:6, Acts 4:12, and Luke 14:25-33, Edwin shows us three things every believer needs to know: that Jesus claims to be the only way (and why that's good news, not narrow news), what it actually costs to follow him, and why the church he's building cannot fail. "It's paid for. It's paid for. We don't have to pay for it." This is the kind of teaching that strengthens what you already believe and equips you to share it with the people around you. As a faith family on mission, our prayer is that you walk away anchored more deeply in Jesus and ready to take your next step with him. Preached at Christchurch Miami on Missions Sunday, May 3, 2026.
