Overflow Podcast

On this very special bonus episode of The Overflow, we have an anonymous guest sharing her experience growing up in a country that erupted in war due to religious conflicts. May this conversation deepen our appreciation for the religious freedoms we have in this country and broaden our awareness for the trials our brothers and sisters in other countries face due to their beliefs.

Robyn Lawton is hosting a roundtable conversation with all of our pastors on the topic of politics, where Christians should stand, and what our response should be regarding the results of the election.

Pastor Bryan and Pastor Ryan are in the studio for a further conversation on joy. Talking about how joy and happiness are not mutually exclusive, how we can embrace joy even in dark times, and how we can still acknowledge the things happening in our world while having joy for the things ahead. We hope you enjoy this conversation.

Today on The Overflow podcast Pastor Bryan and Pastor Vernon teamed up for an incredible conversation on the topic of love. This is the 3rd core value of New River and though we have talked a lot about love this year, there were a few other angles from which they were able to approach this topic. ⁠

⁠

...What does it mean to honor someone? ⁠

...Can we love others without understanding the love of God?⁠

...And wouldn’t it be nice if we had a pop up every time we went to post on social media asking us if what we’re about to post is filtered through the love of Christ? ⁠

⁠

We covered all this and more, and we hope you enjoy this conversation!

We had both Pastor Bryan and Pastor Ryan on for a conversation on faith and hope that turned into so much more. We discussed times when having faith has been difficult, the reality of the hope we have in Jesus, and we even touched on the enneagram. We hope you enjoy this conversation!

Listen in to the audio of Pastor Bryan's sermon from this past Sunday on our first family value: Faith. Even if you heard the sermon on Sunday, listen in again and see what God might be speaking to you!

Pastor Bryan is on the overflow having one last conversation about compassion to wrap up what we’ve been covering on Sundays. We’re talking about the prodigal son, how to be pro-active in our compassion and sharing stories of being the recipient of radical, Spirit-led compassion.

Cancel Culture. What is it? As Christ followers, what is should our response be when we see people we know or celebrities fail in some way? How do we hold people accountable and still have grace? We're unpacking all of this and more in this episode with Pastor Ryan!
