                                              For Freedom: “Let us do good”                                                

When we live in step with the Spirit, everyone wins. [Galatians 5:25-26; Mark 4:1-9]

We each have a vital role to play for the Church to be healthy. [Galatians 6:1-5; Matthew 18:15-20; Matthew 5:23-24]

Let us do good to everyone not to “be good”, but because He is good [Galatians 6:6-10]

What if the hardest season of your life was actually the start of your healing?

In this week’s “God at Work” episode, Kristy Otten steps out from behind the scenes to share a deeply personal journey through mental illness, addiction, forgiveness, and redemption. From a childhood shaped by her mother’s depression to navigating a broken marriage marked by addiction, Kristy opens up about the pain that brought her to the end of herself—and the grace that met her there.

You’ll hear how she discovered her true identity in Christ, found healing through community, and learned the power of doing the work to experience real transformation. Today, Kristy’s story offers hope to anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unseen.

Struggling with shame, codependency, or broken relationships? Wondering if God can use your story? You’re not alone—and this episode is for you. Tap play to hear how God turned Kristy’s “rock bottom” into a firm foundation—and discover how He might be working in your life too.

If you're struggling with depression, addiction, anxiety—or you just feel overwhelmed—you’re not alone. God sees you, and so do we. We’d love to walk with you and help however we can. Reach out anytime at [email protected] or 772-562-2256. There’s hope, and healing is possible.

“Messy, Beautiful, and Free”

Motherhood can feel like a mess—emotional, chaotic, uncertain—but what if it's also exactly where God wants to show up and bring freedom?

In this week’s episode of the Pathway Podcast, Pastor Nate sits down with Dayna and Cristina—two moms on our Pathway staff—to talk about the real, raw, and rewarding side of parenting. From the fear of “messing it up” to the daily joy of raising kids, they share honest stories, biblical encouragement, and how God meets us in the middle of the mess.

Whether you're a mom, a dad, or someone who supports families, you’ll walk away reminded that God calls us to freedom—not perfection.

For Freedom: “Mother's Day”

1. Stand Firm in Freedom (Galatians 5:1)

                • Moms (and all of us) need to hear this: you are not loved because of                        your performance. You’re loved because Christ has already secured                          your worth.

2. Love Over Law (Galatians 5:2–6)

                 • Encourage moms today: Your quiet acts of service are seen by God.

3. Beware of the Leaven (Galatians 5:7–9)

                  • Paul says: Don’t let that stuff grow. It spoils freedom.

4. Serve One Another in Love (Galatians 5:13–14)

                • This is Jesus-shaped love—the love that lays down its rights for the                           good of others.

5. Avoiding the Bite (Galatians 5:15)

             "But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not                            consumed by one another." (Galatians 5:15)

         • Love guards the mouth. Selfishness weaponizes it.

         • You can’t avoid the bite by trying harder-you must walk by the Spirit.

Next Step Questions:

1.) Do you need to experience freedom in Christ today?

2.) What do you need to do today to avoid the bite?

What if your everyday life was part of something much bigger? In this week’s episode of the Pathway Podcast, you’ll hear how God can use simple moments—like serving at a community event or saying "yes" to help in the background—to shape lives and build His Church.

This episode dives deeper into Sunday’s message and explores what it really means to live with purpose, serve with joy, and trust God’s plan. You’ll hear stories of transformation, celebration, and what happens when people say “yes” to the journey God is writing.

Whether you’re new to church, just checking things out, or looking for a deeper connection, this conversation will encourage you to take your next step.

                                           For Freedom: “Born Identity”                                                 

Identity clarity comes with being born again. [Galatians 3:25-29; John 3:1-6] 

Our born identity is the redeemed and freed who live as sons and heirs. [Galatians 4:1-7] 

We grow in intimacy with the Father over time by spending intentional time. 

Our born identity is shaped by knowing God and being known by God. [Galatians 4:8-11; 1 John 2:16; Colossians 2:16-17] 

We tend to turn back to lesser “gods”:  

We need to regularly turn back to God and our born identity. 

Next Step Questions: 

Feel like God’s given you a gift—but you’re not sure what to do with it? You’re not alone.

In this powerful episode, Pastor Brian sits down with author and ministry leader Dr. Kiersten Telzerow to talk about her new book Rise: Your Gift Will Make Room. With warmth and honesty, Kiersten shares how her childhood dream to serve at National Community Church became a reality—and the long, hard road she took to write the book she knew God was calling her to write.

Whether you’ve buried your gift out of fear or felt stuck waiting for the “perfect time,” Kiersten’s story will remind you that God has already made room—you just have to say yes. You’ll also hear about the power of prayer, the importance of making room for God’s voice, and how to trust the Holy Spirit’s lead, even when it’s uncomfortable.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to step into their calling and trust God with what comes next.
