Ginghamsburg Church Podcast

There was a time when religion said it was okay to hate people who didn't act, live or even vote like you. But Jesus came along and changed the game. Sure - love the easy ones - but God's new world order calls us to love our enemies as well. All of them.  So join us this weekend in worship as we sort through the good, the bad and the best way to - LOVE the 937: love an enemy  

When Jesus told us to go the extra mile, he wasn't telling us to work longer, stronger or harder. What Jesus knew - that we struggle with - is how to live the richest life possible; how to love in such a way that it changes us from the inside out. Don't miss this weekend - sharing together in all things worship before we head out to LOVE the 937: Go the Extra Mile.

We seldom give much thought to the actual words we speak, yet Jesus taught that words are meaningless without actions to back them up. Join us this weekend in worship as we continue searching out what it means to truly LOVE the 937 -  Promises, Promises  

Reaching out to LOVE the 937 is all about relationships - but it's not all easy. And being people of forgiveness is absolutely at the heart of the matter. It's Jesus' original plan for launching a movement of God - through our communities, our families and our closest of relationships. Join us for week two of this "close to home" series! LOVE the 937: forgive quickly  

LOVING an entire area code of people can feel like a pretty tall order. "It’s a big place, and I’m just one person,” you might think. "How can I possibly make a difference?”  This weekend we launch our fall worship series – but there’s more. Join us in worship for a challenge to see yourself differently – and embrace the power of your own influence. LOVE THE 937: the movement starts here   Join the movement!  ​lovethe937.org

What determines your daily agenda? Do you live your life around someTHING or someONE? What gets your time, energy and passion each day? In a world that offers every possible distraction to numb the pain we all carry it's imperative to ask...  WHAT OWNS YOU? HABITS, ADDICTIONS AND THE FREEDOM OF RECOVERY   

Ever get tired of your own glaring limitations? This weekend's worship calls us to the shoreline once again for an authentic "come to Jesus" conversation. Wherever you've been, whatever is going on in your life - Jesus invites you to lean into his strength and direction... COME TO THE BEACH  

Ever get stuck thinking you can't change your circumstances - your life or even the broken places of the world? This week's shoreline conversation with Jesus challenges those perceived limitations - making way for bigger miracles than we ever thought possible... COME TO THE BEACH: Bigger Nets  

Nobody seems to want religion right now and it's no wonder. We've taken what God meant to be beautifully simple and made it oh-so difficult. This weekend, COME TO THE BEACH and hear Jesus' invitation to a better way - because the wrong ideas about God can make you sick...SEASICK.

Most of Jesus' best conversations happened along the shoreline. He had a way of inviting followers into a bigger story and greater life purpose. During the month of August you're invited to COME TO THE BEACH - and experience your own shoreline encounter with Jesus. Join us for worship this weekend!   

Who doesn't want to make the greatest impact possible in this life? Jesus modeled a new reality of greater achievement while in the company of others. Yep - humans are just plain BETTER TOGETHER. Please join us this weekend for a powerful July series communion-style wrap-up - THIS IS US!   Click here to view Pastor Chris' message!

Acts chapter two describes a big 'ol family reunion we know as "Pentecost" - and in the wake of Jesus' death and resurrection the guests came hungry to put their faith into action. The results of that gathering ignited a powerful movement of God - far beyond what humans alone could pull off. And so it is today. Come for worship this weekend, ready to scoop up your own powerful portion of THE MAIN DISH: THIS IS US.   Click here to view Pastor Rachel's message!

The early Church was birthed out of a "picnic theology" - gathering for meals and sharing the good news of their Spirit-fueled lives. We're thinking summer may be the best time to take back the simply contagious gospel of good news: THIS IS US... so much better together! Join us this weekend at any of our Ginghamsburg campuses for a taste of true community - faith and life shared together in the best of ways. ALL IN!

What would it take to truly be a DIFFERENCE MAKER in your lifetime? No matter what our age, we had best be figuring this out or life will pass us by - squandered on the dangers of institutional “churchy” counterfeits. Friends far and wide are invited to gather this weekend as we soak in the power of one incredible legacy and the hope of God’s ability to do far beyond what we could ask or think possible… DIFFERENCE MAKER Click here for the colleague tribute to Pastor Mike.

Building a strong next generation doesn't just happen. Daily decisions create a lifetime legacy as we speak God's future, hope and possibilities into others.  Coming up in worship, we'll honor dads, baptize Jesus followers and hear a challenge from our own Pastor Mike in the third of his "Final Four" weeks as Lead Pastor of Ginghamsburg Church. Step into your own powerful legacy this weekend-  DIFFERENCE MAKER//legacy builder "You cannot be a healthy kingdom-of-God influencer if you aren't demonstrating the reality of the kingdom of God within yourself."      - Mike Slaughter #differencemaker
