Serving the Lord // Andrew Flaxman // FHL Church

Ordination Service // Phil Oldfield // FHL Church

In this episode, we celebrate the ordination of great pastors rising within the FHL community—leaders formed in the pioneer spirit of Nehemiah. Just as Nehemiah rebuilt the walls with a tool in one hand and a sword in the other, these pastors step into their callings ready to build, protect, pray, and persevere. We explore what it means to lead in a season that feels like a new pioneer age: carving new paths, strengthening the weak places, and advancing God’s kingdom with courage and conviction. Join us as we honor the builders, the warriors, and the shepherds God is raising up for such a time as this. -Pastor Phil Oldfield

Suffering & Joy // Jillie Flaxman // FHL Church

In this episode, we explore the surprising way Scripture weaves suffering and joy together as instruments of God’s transforming grace. From the deep roots of the cedars of Lebanon to Paul’s powerful words in Romans 5, we discover how trials shape endurance, endurance forms character, and character blossoms into unshakable hope. Join us as we unpack how God meets us in distress, strengthens us through adversity, and teaches us to rejoice even in the hardest seasons—because His love is poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit.

Expectations // Jesse Wark // FHL Church

In this episode, we explore the tension between our expectations of church and the reality of God’s work in community, drawing inspiration from the early church in Acts. Many of us hope for a “perfect,” always-blessed, thriving church—but how can we respond when reality falls short of that ideal? Together, we’ll reflect on how the early believers navigated their expectations, built authentic relationships, and embraced kindness toward one another. Join us as we discuss practical ways to cultivate generosity, patience, and grace in our own faith communities, learning to approach church life with hearts that are as open as they are hopeful. // Pastor Jesse

Serving the Lord // Andrew Flaxman // FHL Church

In this episode, we dive into Joshua 1 and explore what it truly means to serve the Lord with wholehearted devotion. As Joshua steps into a new season of leadership, God calls him—and us—to courage, obedience, and faithfulness. We’ll unpack practical ways to live out that call in our daily lives, embracing God’s promises while trusting Him to guide our steps. Join us as we reflect on how wholehearted service transforms not just our actions, but our hearts, as we follow God faithfully in every season.

Core Values ~ Calling the Creatives // Jillie Flaxman

In this episode, we talk about God’s heart for creativity and His call to bring artists, dreamers, and innovators back into the life of the Church. From the beauty of creation to the craftsmanship in Scripture, God has always used creativity to reveal His glory—and it’s time for the Church to make space for that again. We’ll explore how to nurture creative gifts, remove barriers that have kept creatives on the margins, and reimagine what worship and ministry can look like when creativity is welcomed and celebrated. Join us as we invite the creatives back to the table and rediscover the divine spark that inspires the Church to create with purpose. //Pastor Jillie Flaxman
