  • Justifying Grace | Episode 138

    It's difficult to trust someone if we're not sure they love us. If we know they love us, we can let our guard down and move toward them with confidence. Knowing  that God loves us makes all the difference in entering into a relationship with the one who created us in love.

  • Questions That Shape Ministry | Episode 133

    This week’s conversation takes a question-and-answer format, offering a deeper look at the pastors’ approach to grace, discipleship, scripture, preaching, and service.

    Main questions discussed:
    • How do you define the role of grace in preaching and pastoral care? 
    • What is your vision for helping this congregation make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world? 
    • How do you live out our Wesleyan emphasis on piety and social holiness?
    • What does it mean to preach often and use words when necessary? 
    • How do you approach the interpretation of scripture in teaching and preaching? 
    • How can laity be encouraged to serve the poor and marginalized?
