First Baptist Church of Cape Girardeau : The Podcast

In the first sermon of our Tough Questions series, Tyler Tankersley explores differing religious perspectives including the similarities and differences they share with Christianity. He also takes a moment to comment on the recent violence in Charlottesville, VA.

How do we follow God when our lives take an unexpected turn? That's what Ezekiel is wrestling with when he has his vision in Babylon.

In this sermon, we explore the story of the prophet Elijah calling down fire in his epic showdown with the prophets of Baal. Do we see fire rain down today? If not, then how can we see God move and act in our world?

Ron Winstead continues to lead us through the sermon series, Colorful Stories.  As we discuss Jonah, do we see any parallels with our own lives?  Perhaps--like Jonah--letting God be in charge is the answer.

As we continue through our summer sermon series called Colorful Stories, we look at the eerie, spooky story when King Saul has the judge Samuel raised from the dead. What can we learn from this odd story? What is our relationship to the past?

On this Pentecost Sunday, we explore two stories: Babel and Pentecost. What is the difference between these two stories? What can we learn about where God is leading us to be?

Everyone seems to the know the story of the Fall. However, perhaps there is more to this story than meets the eye. What does it look like for us to be tempted? Whose "fault" is it? And where do we go from here?

This summer we will be exploring a new round of Colorful Stories from the Old Testament. In this sermon, Tyler explores the story of creation found in Genesis 2:4b-25. We'll be looking at these questions: How is Genesis 2 different than Genesis 1? What does it mean to be call to take care of the Earth? What is the purpose of marriage?

In our final sermon of the Gospel of John series, we invite a special guest to share with us: the Apostle Peter. We hear Peter's story of his experience in the Gospel of John. And "he" invites us to reflect on our own story and journey with Jesus.

What is the relationship between faith and doubt? As we look at the story of "Doubting" Thomas, we ask about how doubt might not be antithetical to faith, but may actually be essential to a growing, mature faith.
