NORTH.CHURCH Podcast with Pastor Rodney Fouts

Day two of Revival welcomes Faith Cho as she preaches from Exodus 33 where Moses asks God to “show me your glory”. She challenges us to not confuse the “things” of God with God himself and that we should have a spiritual hunger where we want God for who He is and not just what He can do for us. True spiritual hunger eradicates substitutes and counterfeits and cries out to God for Him, realizing we have seen His glory because of the blood of Jesus Christ. Listen and be challenged.

In week four of "Be Glad", Pastor Samson preaches from Psalm 80 where the people of Israel cry out for God's grace and restoration after facing the consequences of their sins. They acknowledge their abandonment of God, which has led to their suffering and loss. He illustrates how the psalmist uses three metaphors to describe the relationship between God and Israel: a shepherd guiding his sheep, a gardener tending to his vine, and a restorer who will save them. Through this sermon, we are reminded that we often do not realize we are lost until we experience the pain of our own actions, but there is hope and redemption through God's grace. By turning to God and recognizing our need for a savior, we can find new life and salvation. Listen and be challenged.
