Ginghamsburg Church Podcast

For anyone who's ever felt put down, held back, underestimated or overlooked: this weekend let the Old Testament story of Esther encourage you to recognize your own power and potential - for such a time as this.  FIERCE Women of the Bible: Esther  

When it comes to getting outside of ourselves to serve other people we can come up with a list of excuses a mile long. We feel inadequate, unprepared or simply out of time. But there's a CALL that transcends all our hesitations - don't miss it... WINTER FUNK "Get Up Offa That Thing"  

Anybody feeling FROZEN IN FUNK? Life's forecast predicts issues that are pretty tough to deal with on our own. Join us this weekend in worship for the second beat of our life-rhythm - offering every person the support of connection and community... WINTER FUNK "A Family Affair"    

Post-holiday letdown, subzero temperatures and a lack of sunshine can leave us depressed and in a rut. Join us this weekend as we lean into the first beat of a spiritual rhythm that can help us fight the winter funk.   Winter Funk: Good Times  

Love Collision. God pursues you with relentless passion - but are you in a position to respond - or is your day to day full of excuses for why you just CAN'T? Come gather at Ginghamsburg for a relaxed holiday weekend filled with strings and songs, coffee, community and a fresh message of empowerment to round out our worship series... LOVE COLLISION: No Excuses  

Cocoa, candles and a Christmas Eve that promises a fresh sense of GOD WITH US - because when the Divine collides with the ordinary you can expect your own SPARK of the miraculous... LOVE COLLISION  

If you thought you were God's FAVORITE would it give you the confidence to say YES to new possibilities? Don't sell yourself short! Join us this weekend for one of our worship celebrations as we round out Advent with babies, baptisms and all things Christmas-beautiful. And, YOU just might be God's favorite. Love Collision: say YES!  

What do you do when the Light of Heaven confronts you? Sooner or later we'll all make a choice. Join us this weekend as we take a look at the reign of Herod, the plague of heroin and our ultimate HOPE for the world.   LOVE COLLISION: Hope Wins  

Do you have a problem that's too big for God? Even faith-filled people forget that we serve a God of POSSIBILITY. Join us this weekend for a most-wonderful-time-of-the-year worship celebration and a powerful reminder of what God can do.   LOVE COLLISION: Ordinary Interrupted  

Ever felt like you didn't belong? Humans are good at slotting insiders and outsiders - but the Christmas story reminds us of God's much bigger picture. Heaven intersects with a diverse trio of Magi, and it's a sign from the Divine that EVERYBODY'S IN. Join us this weekend for an incredible Advent experience of the sights and sounds of Christmas - expect a spark of the miraculous! LOVE COLLISION: Everybody In  

Most of us have some sort of "old tapes" running in our heads - words spoken over us that create an identity nobody wants to have. Psalm 23 confronts us with a new life-truth, God's anointing of AMAZING - poured over you.  You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows... I SHALL NOT WANT: receive  

It's easy to recite, "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil..." - easy,that is, until the shots are fired, the disease wins or the life is snuffed out. That's when our faith can find its best footing, however. Join us this weekend for a second message from Psalm 23... trusting in the middle of pain. I SHALL NOT WANT: trust  

Feeling stressed or stuck can render us no better than spiritual zombies - not really dead but certainly not living fully alive. This weekend we begin a new series, three weeks through the 23rd Psalm - a chance to refresh before the holidays begin. Don't settle for the zombie life... I Shall Not Want: relax  

In his final "lost and found" story Jesus describes a prodigal son whose father deeply loves and welcomes him back home. It's a picture of what it means to be part of our Ginghamsburg community - loving lost people back to God. Join us this weekend in worship as together we respond to this powerful message of redemption... I AM ONE: The Lost Son  

Have you ever lost something REALLY important - something so valuable that you're DESPERATE to find it? God has. This weekend's parable of a lost coin highlights what it means to serve a God that's DESPERATE for the lost - and what could happen if we were as desperate about reaching out for the lost... I AM ONE: The Lost Coin
