In this episode, Nick and Avery recap Easter and talk about how the songs we sang tied into The Prodigal Son and this season’s theme. Tune in to hear about upcoming songs for Baptism Sunday and the “behind the scenes” perspective!

This Easter message takes us deep into the heart of Luke 15 and the story of the prodigal son, revealing truths that shake us awake to the realities of sin and grace. We discover that sin operates like a deceptive buffet—promising satisfaction at the front end but leaving us miserable and empty in the end. The younger son's journey from his father's house to the pig pen illustrates how sin always takes us farther than we ever intended to go, costing us more than we wanted to pay. Yet the beauty of this story isn't found primarily in the son's rebellion or even his repentance—it's found in the father's relentless love. While we see the son's reckless living on one side of the screen, we witness the father's patient watching and waiting on the other. This Easter, we're reminded that genuine repentance isn't just feeling bad about consequences; it's agreeing with God about our sin and turning toward His goodness. The father's response—running, embracing, celebrating—shows us that God doesn't reluctantly tolerate repentant sinners. He rejoices to welcome them home. The resurrection of Jesus makes this homecoming possible, paying the price for our sin and opening the way back to the Father's house where there's always abundance, always acceptance, always celebration for those who were dead but are now alive.

On today's episode, Chris and Stu talk with Alan Duncan about his years of ministry in South Africa and how he is still living his life on mission today.

This week, Avery and Nick discuss the power of singing songs about Christ’s return as we invite people to Easter. We take a look ahead at what to expect at this week’s services! 

In this episode of Monday Morning Faith, Dave and Donny talk about Easter at FCC and leaving the ninety-nine for the one.

Jesus pursues the one. Heaven rejoices over one sinner who repents more than 99 who need no repentance. The lost matter to God—not as interruptions, but as people worth pursuing. One more isn't a distraction from ministry; reaching one more IS the ministry. Will you go after one?

Nick and Avery discuss a new song from Sunday, Thursday night services and what to expect for the future of the podcast!

In this episode, Dave and Donny talk about March Madness and exciting upcoming events at FCC.

What happens when the crowd becomes the barrier instead of the pathway to Jesus? This powerful exploration of Mark 2 challenges us to examine whether we're making room for others or inadvertently blocking their way. We encounter four friends who refuse to accept obstacles when their paralyzed companion needs Jesus. Their determination leads them to literally tear through a roof, demonstrating that real faith doesn't stop at closed doors—it finds another way. The passage reveals something profound: Jesus sees faith that acts, not just faith that agrees. When these men lowered their friend through the ceiling, their belief became visible in dirt falling on heads and light streaming through an unexpected opening. But here's where it gets even deeper—Jesus addresses the man's sins before his paralysis, reminding us that our greatest need isn't always what seems most obvious. We live in a world obsessed with surface fixes, yet Jesus goes straight to the heart every time. This story isn't just about a miracle; it's about authority, transformation, and glory. When Jesus changes one more life, God receives the glory, and people walk away saying they've never seen anything like it. The question we must wrestle with is simple yet profound: who is our 'one more,' and what are we willing to do to bring them to Jesus?

On today's episode, Chris and Stu talk with David Haynes about his heart for missions and how, as believers, we are all called to share the gospel.
