Church on the Move Broken Arrow Podcast

Our Broken Arrow Senior Pastor, Ethan Vanse, begins our new teaching series, Jesus Over Everything. Following Jesus is more than simply believing in Him. It's a life of complete surrender, allowing Jesus to lead our thoughts, decisions, relationships, and future. Through Colossians 1, we discover three marks of a genuine Christian life: faith that puts Jesus first, love that grows beyond ourselves and reaches even those who oppose us, and hope anchored in the eternal promises of God. In this message, Ethan explores the following Scriptures: COLOSSIANS 1:1-14 ESV COLOSSIANS 1:18 ESV COLOSSIANS 3:14 ESV

Our Broken Arrow Senior Pastor, Ethan Vanse, continues week nine of our teaching series, Life Lessons. Joy is not just a shallow feeling or a temporary reaction when life goes well; it is a supernatural gift from God that can shape our hearts, our homes, and the way we love the people around us.

As we learn to practice gratitude, remember God's goodness, and turn our attention back to His presence, we can choose the actions of joy even when life is difficult and discover what it means to be truly happy in the Lord.
