For goodness's sake. Be a good boy. That was a good movie. We use the term "good" or "goodness" a lot, but its spiritual implications are much bigger than we think. Join producer Kasey Orr, Children's Ministry Director Tiffany Erickson and Executive Minister René Minder tackle this word in our series on the Fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22.

One of the biggest rhetorical idioms Christians are threatened with is being considered "on the wrong side of history," that somehow when the future looked back it would see us as wrong. It's a pity those who use that can't understand we are more concerned about being righteous in the eyes of God.

Pastor Galen wraps up our "Find Your Fam" series talking about investments. Not exactly the investment advice you've been hearing in the financial news, but the way we invest in people, fellowship, and Charity. The word Charity didn't always mean giving money to people. It was once the word that described the motivation of caring for others that motivated actions. What amazing harvests are we missing out on because we haven't taken the time to sew the right seeds?

Join us next week for a stand-alone message on suicide awareness, followed Aug. 21 with our new "Red Sea Rules" series.

Children's Ministry Director Tiffany Erickson joins Programming Director Holly Stevenson in this week's contribution to the Fruits of the Spirit series. What's the difference between being nice and real kindness? How can we spot it in others, and especially recognize and nurture this valuable trait in ourselves? Holly and Tiffany tackle these questions in todays episode.

We took a few week's break for Cheyenne Frontier Days in the Cheyenne Hills Podcast studio. But we didn't want you left with nothing. So here's one of our episodes we really liked from earlier in the year. With elections coming up this year, it's good to take a look at how we pick who we vote for, and why they so often seem to let us down.

Opening with a pre-recorded testimony, Anna tells the story of a life where church was always a solo affair. Between her and God. After the fears and anxieties of the pandemic, she discovers the difference fellowship makes in one's spiritual life. Pastor Galen speaks in todays sermon about the importance of the fellowship that is designed as a cornerstone of Christ's Church. He also covers the responsibilities of those who are a part of that fellowship to support and look out for each other in the Body. Even when that isn't a pleasant task.

We continue our Fruits of the Spirit series this week, and also continue the streak of having hosts who had struggles in the exact subject they were given for the podcast. This week, producer Kasey Orr and graphic designer Evan Greubel talk about patience.

The sermon starts with a quote from Mr. Rogers, so you know you're in for a good one. On top of that, in ends with a special musical guest. In our "Fine Your Fam" series, we've talked about the meaning of Hospitality, the "brotherly love of strangers." Today we take a very familiar story and give it a fresh polish as we discover who counts as our neighbor that we might follow the commandment to love them.

To top it off, musical guest Harry Keyworth shares a song he wrote specifically for the sermon about a neighbor of his who gave him the opportunity to learn what Jesus meant. Originally from Wales in the U.K., Harry lives and records in Nashville, Tenn.

Julie Fogg and April Damey pick up our Fruit of the Spirit series with concept that doesn't come easy: peace. With the weight of what happens in the world today, it feels difficult to recognize peace as a fruit ripe and waiting to be gathered. Luckily, God's Word is filled with reassurance. Explore those with us today, and we hope to help you find a bit of your own piece.

If someone told you if you didn't accept their ideology, they'd take food away from your children, would that seem like bullying — if not downright criminal? Pastor Galen and Nathan Winters discuss actions being undertaken by the U.S. federal government and the responsibility of Christians — especially Christian public servants — to stand up and defend what is right.
