Pastors Pregame

The Christmas season is here, and we are discussing the opening of John's Gospel for the next several weeks. In this episode, we talked about how Jesus is the light and the life and how like John the Baptist, we can be the witness to the light.

Today we're joined by two special guests, pastor Riley Halliday of Mana Church and Christ Fellowship's own Steve Chappell. Lisa has a great conversation with each of them on cultivating generosity and becoming more like Jesus.

Today we are responding to the rest of your questions! We got so many during our Seven Big Questions series that we're taking a whole episode to discuss them. Our listeners asked about a variety of topics from voting to sending kids to public schools to the Trinity.

In this supersized episode of the podcast not only answer your questions about the Bible as part of our seven-big-question series, we're also going to hear from Rafe Wright about local, National, and international mission opportunities.

We're getting close to the end of Mark's Gospel in our passage this week, Mark 14:43-15:20. That means we'll be witnessing Jesus' betrayal, arrest, and trials. For those of us who love Jesus, these are hard verses. In this episode, we'll talk about the final events of Jesus' life, what they teach us about him, what we can learn about loyalty and justice, and how we can find hope even in the suffering of our Savior.

Back in 2018, Christ Fellowship started a campus to serve communities north of McKinney near Anna, Texas. Now over four years later, that campus is growing into its own independent church that's looking forward to a permanent location. So today, I'm joined by the team launching Anna Christian fellowship to talk about how it all began, what it takes to become independent and what their hopes and prayers are for this new church.
