A message from the series “Sermon on the Mount.”

A message from the series “The Other Six Podcast.” In scripture, Jesus tells His disciples that the world will know that they are followers of His by how they love. Obviously, the relationship that we have with one another as Christ-followers is important to the heart of God. But what about those that aren’t followers of Jesus? What about folks that aren’t like us? What about the people who seem to be in direct opposition to what we believe, that seem to seek to discredit our Savior and dismiss or even do harm to our faith? What does Jesus tell us to do in those situations? Join Pastors Chad, Matt, and Adam for a discussion on loving those who are different than us, some phrases that everyone seems to think are in scripture but are not, Pastor Adam moving to a new season of ministry, and the future of the Other Six Podcast.

A message from the series “The Other Six Podcast.” As you read through the Sermon on the Mount, you begin to see a theme emerging: Jesus changing the paradigms and established ideas of the day. For those in attendance on the mountain listening to the words of Christ, what Jesus was saying was absolutely a challenge to everything their culture had ingrained in them. These “counter cultural” thoughts drilled right through the letter of the law and got down to the heart of the matter…it’s what is happening on the inside that then shows up externally to show who we really are. Join Pastors Chad, Matt, and Adam for a discussion on letting your yes be yes, turning the other cheek, and going the extra mile as followers of Jesus as our “Sermon on the Mount” series continues.

A message from the series “The Other Six Podcast.” Some of the things that Jesus says in the Sermon on the Mount are hard to talk about. Like, really hard to talk about. Sexual purity can be one of those things. Jesus doesn’t pull any punches, however, and He is clear with us on the fact that God expects us to exhibit purity in all of our relationships. With phrases like “if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out” and “if you hand causes you to sin, cut it off”, we can clearly see that the subject of purity matters a great deal to the heart of God…but we live in a culture that so often celebrates the opposite. So what do we do as followers of Jesus? Join Pastors Chad, Matt, and Adam for a discussion on sexual purity, how we can strive for purity in our lives and relationships, and some practical tips on what living a life of purity looks like.

A message from the series “The Other Six Podcast.” Have you ever been angry? Of course you have. The emotion of anger is something common to us all. Whether it’s a momentary flare up as someone cuts you off in traffic, a righteous anger when you see something that ought not be, or a bitter anger that seeps into your life and takes control, all of us have felt it at some point. So if all of us experience anger, then it must not be that big of a deal, right? But what if it is a big deal? What if our anger can lead us to a place where our lives have no peace and no joy? In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus addresses the issue of anger and uses some pretty harsh language and imagery when talking about what it can do to our lives. Join Pastors Chad, Matt, and Adam for a discussion on anger, some ways that we can keep anger from taking over our lives, and how we can experience peace and joy through reconciliation.
