Grace Chapel Church Podcast | Franklin, TN

Through his own family's personal testimony and the story of the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings, Pastor Ian shares the story of hope: a hidden hope, a painful hope, and a redeeming hope.

Pastor Jimmy sets the foundation for our new series - Hope - by defining it, noting the differences between Hope and Faith, and giving us four points about Hope: 1) Hope is the joyous anticipation of good, 2) Hope is the fuel for our Faith, 3) Hope is putting your trust in the resurrection power of Jesus, and 4) Hope is an anchor for our soul.

In the final part of Faith Works, Pastor Steve summarizes the previous seven weeks and details the amazing faith journeys of many Biblical figures, providing brief observations of each to make important and parallel points to our faith.

In Part 7, Pastor Steve examines the life of Moses through Hebrews 11:23, addressing topics such as: God's use of ordinary people for extraordinary tasks, the risk and release of faith, the refusal and forsaking of worldliness, the revering of God, and God-initiated faith vs. self-willed presumption.

Pastor Jimmy talks about leaving a life of legacy as we examine the faith of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph (Hebrews 11:17-22). To live a life of legacy, we have to trust God and lay it down, hand it off, worship, and we have to remember who we are and where our home is.

In Part 5, we again look at the life of Abraham and Sarah, but rather than focusing on their imperfections we now look closely at their faith successes - they didn't let comfort keep them, promise paralyze them, delay defeat them, or the past persuade them.

In Part 4 of Faith Works, we examine the life of Abraham and Sarah and the imperfections that surrounded their faith journey. Despite the imperfections, however, God graciously responds to them and upholds His promises -- His faithfulness will always be bigger than our failures.

In Part 3, Pastor Steve continues through the "Hall of Faith" in Hebrews and how Noah's faith stands as an example for all of us. We focus on three aspects of Noah's faith: 1) Noah heard God, 2) Noah feared God, and 3) Noah prepared for God.

In Part 2 of Faith Works, we begin to make our way through the "Faith Hall of Fame" in Hebrews 11, detailing those whose faith stands as an example for all of us - part 2 covers Abel and Enoch.

In Part 1 of our new series, Faith Works, Pastor Steve lays a foundation of what Faith is, what it looks like, and what can be the result of either a life lived full of Faith or a life that is lacking in Faith. Where in our life can we start expecting and believing for God to do the impossible?

It is our distinct honor and privilege to have Dr. Alveda King at Grace Chapel. Pastor Steve interviews Dr. King across a wide range of topics from family to her pro-life stance to racial reconciliation.

Using Psalm 55 for context, Dr. Mark Rutland speaks on one of the most difficult things we can experience - the wound of a betrayal from a close friend. No matter what you are going through - shame, anxiety, stress, discouragement, etc. - you can find great encouragement and Life in the Psalms.

We have the distinct pleasure of having our friend, Dr. Mark Rutland, share with us today. King David was a complicated, conflicted man of flesh. But too often he is viewed as an Americanized shepherd boy on a Sunday school felt board or a New Testament saint alongside the Virgin Mary. Not only does this neglect one of the Bible’s most complex stories of sin and redemption; it also bypasses the gritty life lessons inherent in the amazing true story of David.

People often have a negative view of "repentance," however, through looking at two different prodigal son stories we can see that repentance is a blessed gift from God - confessing and repenting activates the blessings of God and breaks the power of the enemy!

Happy Resurrection Day -- He is Risen! Pastor Steve delivers a message entitled, "Life's Two Greatest Questions" - 1) Who do YOU say that Jesus is? and 2) What are you going to do with Jesus the Messiah?
