- Integrity in Ministry | Josh Landen
Send us Fan Mail
This sermon examines the intricate dynamics between the Apostle Paul and the Corinthian church as seen in 2 Corinthians 1:12 to 2:13. The Apostle Paul discusses his sincere intentions and the integrity of his ministry, emphasizing clarity in communication rooted in God's grace. The historical context reveals misunderstandings regarding his travel plans, motivating his decision to withhold visits to spare the church further pain. Paul addresses accusations about his reliability, defending his integrity tied to Christ's promises.
As he navigates emotional challenges, Paul highlights the interplay of love and joy within the church, urging forgiveness as crucial for spiritual health. He encourages the Corinthians to reflect on their responses to conflict, advocating for grace over judgment. We're empowered to embody love, forgiveness, and reconciliation, reminding both the Corinthian church and modern congregations of their mission to live out Christ's grace in fostering unity.

38 min - Get to Know: Bradley Anderson, Director of Worship
Send us Fan Mail
Before you hear Bradley Anderson lead worship, we wanted you to hear his story.
In this conversation, we sit down with Christ Methodist’s new Director of Worship to talk about the moments that shaped him—from growing up in rural West Virginia, to falling in love with music at a young age, to saying yes to a calling that has taken him across the country and deep into the life of the Church.
Along the way, Bradley reflects on why music matters in worship, how art points us to the Creator, and the responsibility that comes with leading others into the presence of God. You’ll also hear about handbells (yes, really), baseball loyalties, meaningful mentors, and the quiet ways God confirms His calling at just the right time.
This interview isn’t about a résumé, but about the heart, faith, and story behind the leadership. Whether you’re part of the choir, the congregation, or just getting to know Christ Methodist, this is an invitation to get to know Bradley a little better.
