- Just a Carpenter?” – Rev. Ross FurioEpisode 19: Just a Carpenter?” – Rev. Ross FurioJesus, of all things, was a carpenter when he walked the earth. Throughout the season of Lent we are going to lean into that part of his human identity, and what we will find is that Jesus saw people, lived life, and looked at ministry like a carpenter. Willing to use the scraps, always ready to repair and renew, and building to last. Join for this journey through the season of Lent!Sermon Scripture Text: Mark 6:1-6"Just a Carpenter?”" – S03E19 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.

- The Master Builder – Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneEpisode 18: The Master Builder - Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneAs a carpenter, Jesus could have just snapped his fingers and said, "Let there be a table." But, instead, he takes a saw and labors over the wood - just like we would do. In Jesus, we have a master builder who is repairing and fixing for eternity those things that have been broken. He is making things new!Sermon Scripture Text: Colossians 1:15-23"The Master Builder" – S03E18 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.

- A Holy Lent – Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneEpisode 17: A Holy Lent - Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneFrom dust you came and to dust you shall return. Who in their right mind wants to say that to another person? It's an odd thing to do. But, on Ash Wednesday, we let a minister smear a cross of ashes on our forehead while saying those words to remind us that we are sinful, but that God breathed life into us and gave everything to redeem us.Sermon Scripture Text: Matthew 6:1-21"A Holy Lent" – S03E17 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.

- Yes or No – Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneEpisode 16: Yes or No - Rev. Dr. Kevin PayneAt the top of the mountain something amazing happens. Peter, James and John were blessed with the chance to see Jesus in his full glory and they wanted to stay in that moment. But, the work was down in the valley and they had to leave the mountain top. God blesses us with mountain top experiences to prepare us to go back down in the valley and do the work of life.Sermon Scripture Text: Matthew 5:21-37"Yes or No" – S03E16 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.

- Awe and Wonder – Rev. Ross FurioEpisode 15: Awe and Wonder – Rev. Ross FurioAt the top of the mountain something amazing happens. The voice of God declares that Jesus is the Son of God and that we should listen to him. Peter, James and John had the amazing fortune to witness this awe-inspiring moment.

- Salt and Light – Rev. Ross FurioEpisode 14: Salt and Light – Rev. Ross FurioI wonder what would happen if we stopped just looking at the cross, and started to look through it? My guess is that we would be a people who begin to think a little more like Jesus. That is Paul's goal for us as we seek to be a people who are rooted in divine wisdom, rather than the wisdom of the world.Sermon Scripture Text: Matthew 5:13-16"Salt and Light" – S03E14 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.

- Pride That Doesn’t Divide – Rev. Ross FurioEpisode 10: Pride That Doesn't Divide – Rev. Ross FurioPride Divides. You've felt this before. Pride, when we let it, puts us on an island, separating us not only from our neighbor, but also from our God. Paul, in his letter to the church in Corinth, is trying to get his readers to see this truth. But, he also hints at a pride that doesn't divide, a pride that actually draws us deeper in our faith, and closer to our neighbor. Join us this week as we consider what we as believers should be boasting about.Sermon Scripture Text: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31"Pride That Doesn't Divide" – S03E10 of Grow Deeper: A Bluff Park UMC PodcastWelcome to the Grow Deeper podcast.
