Ginghamsburg Church Podcast

Jesus made his best connections over meals enjoyed with everyday people, always expanding the size of the table to fit the magnitude of the needs around him. Let’s lean into worship this weekend and catch sight of some makeshift tables in our own community, spaces where miracles unfold…

Has your faith come with rules that feel so familiar it would be tough to let them go? What if you woke up tomorrow and realized the rules were meant to point you to something far greater – someONE far greater?

2020 promises no shortage of divisive issues and the Church's reluctance to engage in healthy dialog only hinders us from moving forward, casting a shadow for the next generation. We need new language to guide us forward along with faith-followers willing to stretch across divided lines with the gospel of peace. Join us for this timely February message series – discovering fresh hope for faith communities.

Most of us don’t start the day hell-bent on forgetting our priorities. Our spirits are willing, but reality often renders us oh, so weak – ugh!

Life gets crazy and our solo attempts at slowing things down may fall short. Could it be that the best resources for right-sizing our lives are as close as the people around us?

Setting our priorities for a new season is all fine and good – until it isn’t. Distractions abound and we can soon find ourselves way off-course. But Jesus gets it – being 40 days tempted in the wilderness – and we can learn so much from his experience about avoiding those PRIORITY PITFALLS.

What if 2020 could promise more room for love, more room for laughter – more room for life? Before buying that gym membership or promising to work less hours, let’s commit to what matters most.

There’s a reason we’ve been blessed with "glad tidings of great joy." Our lives hold purpose far beyond the glow of Christmas – ready to meet us in the new year.

Christmas Eve at Ginghamsburg

Have you ever had to change your life direction -- only to turn around and realize that the biggest change had happened inside of YOU?

Have you ever been “called” to do something risky or to fulfill some sort of challenging role? Inside the Christmas story we see God call Joseph into a situation Joseph didn’t understand requiring faith when nothing made sense. Perhaps that’s where you are today…

Have you ever been surprised by love? The Christmas Story begins with a young women – startled by an angel’s call – yet prepared to respond with a YES to the great possibilities that lie ahead.

Sure, we were "made to serve” yet we discount our own abilities, make excuses and back away from the possibilities. Why miss out tho?

The dynamic workforce of God’s kingdom promises that no matter the job description, the pay scale or benefits, each and every person’s been gifted for a significant task.

Have you ever felt "othered" - on the outside of what's happening and not sure how to get in? You are in good company! This weekend's message is for anyone who's ever been labeled, rejected, mistreated, or uninvited. God sees you and wants to reposition you for so much goodness!
