Episode 4: Colossians 1:21-2:7 | Sue Mills Oct 27, 2024

Paul wanted to help the Colossian believers guard the simple faith and sufficiency they had found in Christ. With all the conflicting voices on social media and in our world, there is pressure to explore false ideas and confusing pastimes that pull us away. In this podcast, Sue urges us to root our hope in Christ and be firmly planted in the gospel.

Episode 2: Colossians 1:1-10 | Melanie Brown Oct 13, 2024

Paul opens this letter to the Colossians by acknowledging what he sees God doing in their lives. He was a great source of encouragement to them, and us as well! Encouragement can bring light to the darkness, strength when you’re weak, and hope that overcomes despair. As we begin this study, Melanie reminds us to be intentional about encouraging one another.

Episode 1: Introduction to Colossians | Debbie Eaton Oct 06, 2024

Episode 4: Silence & Solitude | Heidi Haberling Eseke Sep 29, 2024

As followers of Christ, we need to consider why Jesus spent much of His time getting away to a quiet place. It seems that if He did it, we must need it too! In this podcast, Heidi shares four simple tips for practicing silence and solitude in a way that allows our heart to be still enough to listen to the Lord.

Episode 3: The Circle of Life | Shelley Hurley Sep 22, 2024

People are drawn to the Lord when they see a healthy, vital church serving with joy and passion for the things of God. This paints an attractive picture to the watching world, and if we want this beautiful circle of life to continue, we need to share the gospel with others. Yet we all have excuses. In this podcast, Shelley uses the acronym, GO FISH to challenge some of the reasons why we don’t evangelize.

Episode 2: Reading and Studying God’s Word | Christi Robillard Sep 15, 2024

In this podcast, Christi discusses the mystery and miraculous power of the Word of God. How is it that some read God’s inspired word and experience His power and life within, yet others read and experience absolutely nothing? As Paul explains in 1 Corinthians 2:14, the Bible is a locked book to a locked heart. Yet it can penetrate even the hardest heart and bring the most avowed atheist to belief! For the Christian, reading and studying the Bible is not just important—it is vital! A soul cannot prosper without it.

Episode 1: What Are Spiritual Disciplines? | Cathe Laurie Sep 08, 2024

We launch our fall season with a series on Spiritual Disciplines. For some, this may be the first time you discover that these practices are what you’ve been looking for in order to pursue God and grow in your relationship with Him.

In the next few weeks as we look deeply at these disciplines of grace, Cathe offers practical wisdom for getting started. Don’t wait for perfect conditions. Be willing to change your routine where needed. Start where you are and trust the Holy Spirit to mature you spiritually as you cooperate with Him. He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it!

Episode 6: Galatians 5:26 – 6:18 | Wendy MacGinnis May 13, 2024

Galatians has been crystal clear on the truth that we are saved by grace through faith alone. We don’t earn our salvation, but we are called to live it out. On our own, that’s impossible but in step with the Spirit, we can do hard and impossible things. In this final episode, Wendy shares some practical steps for living out our faith using the acrostic OTHERS.

Episode 5: Galatians 5:1-25 | Sue Mills May 05, 2024

In this episode, Sue discusses the freedom we have because of Christ. But with this beautiful freedom, the apostle Paul reminds us not to use it to satisfy our sinful nature. To our last breath, we will battle a sin nature that wants what it wants—but we don’t fight alone.

“For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him” (Philippians 2:13). By walking in the Spirit, we are free to love and obey Christ and serve one another in love.

Episode 4: Galatians 4:8-31 | Shelley Hurley Apr 28, 2024

Have you ever prayed with someone to receive the Lord and seen the weight of sin lifted? You can just feel the joy and freedom in the air! Then sometime later they chose to go back to their old life. It’s so heartbreaking to see them in shackles again. In this episode, Shelley considers how legalism takes the heart out of Christianity. Choosing religion over relationship is like chasing shadows. The Holy Spirit gives us freedom from the heavy burden of trying to earn God’s favor.

Episode 3: Galatians 3:10-4:7 | Leah Case Apr 21, 2024

The Galatians started out well, but troublemakers convinced them they had to do more to be accepted by God. That’s the pitfall of legalism; it distorts the gospel and cheats us out of the intimacy and joy of grace through faith.

In this episode, Leah reminds us to focus and rejoice in the truth that we don’t work for salvation; we walk in it. Grace sets us free to grow in faith and live it out in daily life.

Episode 2: Galatians 2:1-3:9 | Tiffany Velasquez Apr 14, 2024

Galatians might not read like a typical love letter, but Paul loved the believers in the churches there and wanted to keep them accountable. After preaching the gospel throughout the region on his first visit, many Gentiles were saved, and new believers were growing in their faith. But troublemakers infiltrated the church, convincing them that faith wasn’t enough without keeping the law, too.

Paul was understandably angry because gospel revision of any kind is gospel reversal. We see this in our own culture today. In this episode, Tiffany reminds us that the invitation of the gospel is for everyone, and the truth of the gospel is by grace, through faith in Christ alone.

Whether you’ve been in Christ for two days, two years, or two decades, one thing is certain: we all need the gospel. We never grow out of it. The gospel is milk; it is meat; it is the appetizer; it is the dessert! In this podcast, Cathe introduces our study in Galatians and reminds us that we need a daily reset by being in God’s Word. By embracing the Gospel, we discern what is real, what is true, and what it good.

In this episode, Christi reminds us that when we speak to others about the kingdom of God, about our salvation, and our life in Christ, our words might be new to their ears, but it should be something they’ve already seen in our life. So, let your light shine!

Advent Week 4 | Don’t Miss Christmas! with Melanie Brown Dec 17, 2023

The first time Jesus came, some were looking for the Messiah—but not many. A devout man named Simeon. An 84-year-old widow named Anna. Sophisticated Magi from the east and common shepherds from the nearby hills of Bethlehem. They came from different backgrounds and unlikely places, with one thing in common: they were searching for Jesus.

In this podcast, Christi invites us to look back to the story of Bethlehem and understand you’re the reason He came. Now look up and be ready…you’re the reason He is coming again!

Episode 2: Why Does God Allow Suffering? – Tiffany Velasquez Sep 17, 2023

The Virtue Podcast, Season 11 – Minor Prophets

Episode 2: | Why Does God Allow Suffering? – Tiffany Velasquez

Have you ever wondered why God allows suffering? We all have. Habakkuk trusted God but, like many of us, he struggled with the why and how of what God was doing. In this podcast, Tiffany reminds us that we are not alone, and God has a glorious plan. Are you willing to allow God to use your hardship and pain for something meaningful? We can trust Him, for He is always good and faithful to His promises.

What Habakkuk Didn’t See – Cathe Laurie Sep 10, 2023

The Virtue Podcast, Season 11 – Minor Prophets

Episode 1: | What Habakkuk Didn’t See – Cathe Laurie

Have you ever had a time in your life that things were so bad, you felt God was afar off? You may even have asked, “God! What are you doing?” In this podcast, Cathe considers ways in which we relate to what Habakkuk saw, how he responded, and what he couldn’t see or understand. In the process we’re reminded that, even in dark and troubling times, we are not abandoned. God is still working.

Episode 4: Truth about Heaven and Hell | Cathe Laurie May 07, 2023

Does knowing the truth about heaven and hell cause us to live a remarkable and purposeful life? If we view eternity rightly, we know it is far more than a personal ticket out of hell and into heaven. Christians have been characterized as being “so heavenly-minded they’re no earthly good.” But as C.S. Lewis said, “History will show that the people who did the most for this present world were the ones who thought the most about the next one.”

In this podcast, Cathe highlights the impact that our beliefs about eternity can have on the world around us right now, and the impact it has on our heart and life.

So, let’s get ready to dip our thimble into the ocean of riches that is Jesus, “in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:3).

Can you think of a time when you hoped and wished for something good to happen? You prayed, you asked, but sadly, the thing you wished for didn’t come to be. In times of crisis, it’s easy to miss the signs that Jesus is right there with us.

In this special Easter podcast, Cathe walks us through Mary Magdalene’s experience at the empty tomb on that resurrection morning. When Jesus spoke Mary’s name, she recognized Him! As you listen, be reminded that Mary’s story is a lesson for us all. Do you need to hear the Lord speak your name today? Be still and linger.

Episode 5: Sign Six, Healing the Blind Man | John 9 with Melanie Brown Mar 26, 2023

This week we read about Jesus healing a man who was born blind. The Bible has a lot to say about suffering, and this man’s encounter with Jesus has much to teach us. Just as the prophet Isaiah foretold, this sign reveals Jesus as Messiah, who would open the eyes of the blind. Not only did he receive physical sight, the man’s spiritual eyes of faith were opened when Jesus lit up his world and transformed his life.

In this podcast, Melanie reminds us that Jesus has called us out of darkness into light. Even as our world seems to be getting darker, Jesus remains the Light of the world. He can never be extinguished! So let your light shine!

This week, Zenovia urges us to look with fresh eyes of faith and be part of the multitude that can’t help but follow Jesus in anticipation of all that He will do.

Episode 1: First Sign, Water into Wine | John 2:1-2 with Tiffany Velasquez Feb 26, 2023

We know as believers that Jesus is God personified. But why is that essential? What we believe about Jesus determines whether we will spend eternity with Him or separated from Him. John wanted people to know that Jesus was fully God and fully man, so he chose to write about the signs (miracles) that revealed Jesus’ glory and divine power over all creation. In this episode, Tiffany looks at the first sign, when Jesus turned water into wine.

There are opportunities all around us to shine our light and be the hands and feet of Jesus to those around us. “It was fifty years ago this spring that I accepted the Lord during the Jesus Revolution,” Shelley recalls. “I expected Him to come back soon, and I still do!” In the meantime, let’s keep planting seeds, pulling weeds, and trust the Lord to send rain so that His harvest will be rich, ripe and abundant.

Episode 8: Knowing and Doing God’s Will | James 4:13-17 with Tiffany Velasquez Jan 29, 2023

James 4 began with talking about war with God and ends with the will of God. The topic of God’s will for our life is so big and honestly, we struggle with that sometimes. As Warren Wiersbe used to say, a believer who is out of the will of God becomes a troublemaker, not a peacemaker!

Life can be complicated and sometimes scary, but God desires the very best for His children. He knows that the process of seeking Him is as important as the answer He might give to any question. So in this episode, Tiffany encourages us with a simple truth. The will of God comes from the heart of God. The safest place in the world is right where God wants you.

Episode 7: The Battle Within | James 4:1-12 with Melanie Brown Jan 22, 2023

What’s all the fighting about? James asked that question, and you’d think he was writing in today’s culture! Everywhere you turn, tension is high, patience is low, and criticism prevails. But James wasn’t talking to “the world”—he’s addressing Christians, people like you and me, why can’t we get along? It’s a heart issue. What is competing for a place in our heart that only the Lord should occupy?

In this episode, Melanie reminds us that salvation is an instant work, but inner change is a lifelong pursuit. What are we pursuing, who is holding the reins of our heart? Becoming more like Jesus must be our goal to the very last breath we take on this earth.

Episode 6: True Wisdom | James 3:13-18 with Sue Mills Jan 15, 2023

This week our study couldn’t be more perfect as we step into 2023. Raise your hand if you need wisdom! We all want to make right decisions and say the right thing. James looks at God’s wisdom and worldly wisdom. Just as you can identify a tree by the type of fruit it produces, you can evaluate your wisdom by the way you act.

In this episode, Sue reminds us that wisdom flows from seeing God for who He is and responding appropriately. If you’re looking for a practical how-to, she gives it in three simple steps. Know your God. Trust and obey. Ask. The steps are the same for every person—whether you are just discovering faith or if you’ve been walking this path for many years.

We can trust the Creator of the universe (He created you!) to give us His wisdom. Do you believe that? Come and see.

In this podcast, Cathe Laurie reminds us that the meaning of Christmas goes miles deeper than frantic shopping, pretty lights and family traditions. We, of all people, should know this. How much better to walk calmly and focused into this season and why we celebrate.

Don’t be satisfied by staying on the sidelines of the life you were created to live. Let’s choose instead to live an active life of faith where possibilities are endless!

Episode 1: Facing Trials & Temptations | James 1:1-18 with Cathe Laurie Oct 23, 2022

Our study in James begins with a conversation about trials and temptation. Even as Christians, we still swim in the waters of culture, so we need to be aware and prepared. In this episode, Cathe discusses why (and how) trials are a catalyst for change that will settle us into deeply rooted faith. She identifies the difference between trials and temptation, reminding us that Satan tempts us to bring out the bad while God tests us to bring out the good. Listen and be encouraged!

So much that happens in life is, to us, seemingly unforgivable. But God says, “Give it to Me.” In this podcast, Sue takes a closer look at Romans 8:28-29 to discover what it means in relation to forgiveness.
