Last Things First: The Last Word on Worship

Introducing: Epaphras, an Exemplary Prayer

Epaphras doesn’t get much buzz in the bible, but what he is known for sets an example for all of us who would participate in God’s work of salvation. He is one of the original prayer warriors. Listen as Pastor Meshach shares 3 things we can learn from Epaphras on prayer. Preached: August 6, 2023 Scripture: Colossians 4:12-13

Introducing: A No-Named Woman, With Great Faith

Jesus and his disciples have crossed into Cannanite country to rest, but immediately his presence is known as a woman with a demon possessed daughter seeks him out. Her faith is tested and proven to be great when she refuses to leave without the thing she sought from Christ. Join us as pastor Meshach teaches on why this woman's faith is so great. Preached: July 16, 2023 Scripture: Matthew 15:21-28

Introducing: Blind Bartimaeus

Bartimaeus couldn't see, but he could shout! He would not let the crowd keep him from getting the attention of the one who could deliver him. He is an example to us of the necessity of chutzpah and positive stubborn determination to receive from the Lord. Join us as pastor Meshach introduces to us a man formerly known as Blind Bartimaeus. Preached: July 9, 2023 Scripture: Mark 10:46-52

Introducing: Naaman, the Aramean Commander

Naaman is a man who is the envy of all others. He has rank, status, wealth, and connections, but after all that is said about him, there is one thing that stands above them... he has leprosy. In this story, his deliverance comes by surprising means... humility. Join Pastor Meshach as he introduces us to Naaman. Preached: July 2, 2023 Scripture: 2 Kings 5:1-19

Formation Lab Week 4 — Integration and Mission

Transformation was never meant to stay private. In this final session we ask what it looks like when formation actually works — in your home, your workplace, your neighborhood. We look at the local church as a Trinitarian community, not a service provider, and close with a reframe that might change how you think about your ordinary week. We often talk about taking Jesus with us places. What if we reversed that — and brought our lives to him instead? Formation Lab is a four-week course from Northminster Presbyterian Church on what it means to be an apprentice of Jesus — not just a believer.
