In this week’s POSC Podcast, Bro. Joseph D. Putnam delivers a powerful message rooted in Romans 8:28, revealing a truth believers can anchor their lives on: the unwavering goodness of God. Speaking from the perspective of someone intimately acquainted with trial, Bro. Putnam reminds us that God’s goodness is not proven by the absence of suffering—but by His faithfulness in the middle of it.

Bro. Putnam walks listeners through the extraordinary hardships of Paul’s life—whippings, beatings, shipwrecks, persecution, hunger, cold, imprisonment, and relentless pressure from all sides—only to point us back to Paul’s own conclusion: “Afflicted, but not crushed… struck down, but not destroyed.” God sustained him. God delivered him. God was still good. And the same God who carried Paul carries us today.

With sincerity, Scripture, and steady conviction, Bro. Putnam parallels Paul’s testimony with our own battles—broken bodies, lost loved ones, grief, mistreatment, uncertainty, unmet promises—and shows how God weaves His goodness through every chapter. Our trials don’t disqualify His goodness. They display it. When hope feels distant, His hand is present. When weakness overwhelms, His strength lifts. When pain cries loudest, His comfort speaks clearest.

This episode also carries a dual call to action:

If you’re in the storm—praise anyway. God moves in the middle of honest worship.

If you’ve come through the storm—praise because He brought you out.

Ending with a resounding echo of Psalm 150, this message shifts our posture from asking “Why me?” to declaring “God is still good.” It stirs something in the soul and demands a response: let everything that has breath praise the Lord.

No clouds. No clichés. Just confidence in God’s goodness.

In this week’s POSC Podcast, Pastor Putnam brings a timely and convicting word on a theme our world desperately needs to rediscover: gratitude. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:18, he reminds us that giving thanks in everything isn’t a suggestion—it’s the will of God for every believer.

In a generation overflowing with convenience yet starving for contentment, Pastor Putnam exposes how easily entitlement, complaint, and cultural negativity seep into our spirits. Through humor, real-world examples, and a clear challenge from Scripture, he calls the church to rise above the noise and reclaim the posture of a thankful heart.

Walking through the stories of the ten lepers, Job, Paul and Silas, and the Psalms of David, he paints a vivid picture of what gratitude looks like—not as a fleeting feeling, but as a spiritual discipline that transforms us. Gratitude is more than good manners; it’s spiritual warfare. It steadies the mind, guards the heart, shifts atmospheres, and invites the peace of God into our lives.

If you’ve felt the weight of negativity, discouragement, or the constant pressure of “what’s next,” this message will reset your heart. It will remind you that we are a profoundly blessed people—with every reason to return, like the one leper, to fall at Jesus’ feet and simply say, thank You.

Choose the path of gratitude. It will change how you see everything.

In this week’s POSC podcast, Pastor Putnam brings a tender but urgent message on a theme woven through all of Scripture: the grace of God—how sweet it is.

Drawing from Ephesians 2, Pastor Putnam reminds us that we were dead in our trespasses, unable to save ourselves, yet God—rich in mercy and overflowing with love—made us alive through Christ. Grace isn’t God ignoring our sin; it’s God overcoming our sin. It’s not weakness or permission—it’s power. Power to rise. Power to return. Power to become who God already declared we can be.

Through the stories of Jonah, Hosea and Gomer, the prodigal son, Peter, and even Noah,

Pastor Putnam paints a vivid picture of a God who doesn’t give up on His people. A God who chases, restores, and runs toward the broken long before they ever take a step toward Him. A God who meets us in storms, in pigpens, in fish bellies, in our denials, in our wandering—and calls us by name.

But this message isn’t just about grace given—it’s about grace responded to. Grace opens a door, but we must walk through it. Grace creates a space—a space to repent, to forgive, to come home, to obey—but that space won’t stay open forever. Just as in the days of Noah, salvation is found in responding while the door is open.

If you’ve ever felt too far gone, too messed up, too inconsistent, too wounded, or too ashamed—this episode is a reminder that you are still within the reach of God’s grace. Your failure isn’t final. Your story isn’t over. And the Father is running toward you.

Today is your moment. Step into the space of grace.

In this week’s message, Bro. John A. Putnam brings a word of hope and conviction titled “It’s Not Over.” Drawing from Hebrews 12:1–2, Bro. Putnam reminds us that our story isn’t defined by our failures, but by our response to them.

Through the story of Alfred Nobel’s transformation, the repentance of King David, and the redemption of John Newton, Bro. Putnam reveals a timeless truth: God’s grace is not finished with you yet. The race is still before you—and the Author and Finisher of your faith is still writing your story.

With heartfelt urgency, he calls believers to get back up—to wash, to worship, and to move forward. Because it’s not what you’ve done, but how you respond to the mercy of God that determines your future. Even in failure, God is still faithful; even in brokenness, His grace can rebuild.

If you’ve fallen, doubted, or wondered whether your mistakes have disqualified you, this message will remind you: it’s not over until God says it’s over.

In this week’s message, Pastor Putnam calls the church to a Holy separation—to stop reaching back for the things that Christ has already buried.

Drawing from Romans 6:23 and 2 Corinthians 5:17, Pastor Putnam reminds us that “the wages of sin is death,” but through Jesus Christ, we’ve been made new. From the laws of Leviticus to the ashes of the red heifer, he unveils a powerful truth: death was never meant to be handled. What we touch spiritually—our habits, our relationships, our attitudes—can either defile or renew us.

With urgency and compassion, Pastor Putnam challenges believers to quit handling the “dead things” of their past: dead habits, dead relationships, dead attitudes, and dead desires. For when we cling to what Christ has already cleansed us from, we risk becoming unclean again. But when we let go—when we leave the graveyard behind—we step into resurrection life.

If you’ve been struggling to move on from your past, revisiting what God has already forgiven, or wondering why your walk with Him feels heavy, this message will remind you that true salvation brings true life change.

Today, it’s time to leave the dead things behind—and step into the new life that Jesus Christ has prepared for you.
