Redemption Church Podcast

Today Christine teaches about caring for our communities through Matthew 5:21-26. Our goal is to be equipped to live into our identity as Christ followers in our homes, neighborhoods, and workplaces and to mobilize to collectively care for the housing insecure, at-risk youth, and immigrant neighbors.

It’s Formation Sunday and Mike will be continuing to teach through Matthew 5:17-20. As we head into the next part of Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount, we’ll notice the phrase, “you have heard it said” and see how Jesus continues to challenge us to shift our understanding of scripture and the perspectives we hold. We’re excited to unpack the things we’ve heard said and invite Holy Spirit to continue to work in us!

The day we’ve been anticipating, Easter! This is also Exploration Sunday and today Mike will be exploring Matthew 5:13-16. Join us for the culmination of the Lenten season with a celebration of the resurrection.

This week is our For Our Communities Sunday! Mike will be teaching as we contextualize our study of the beatitudes and peacemaking into the communities we work to see flourish.

This weekend is Formation Sunday and Christine will be teaching on the next verses in the Beatitudes as we keep exploring our theme, Draw Near: A Year of Radical Presence. Matthew 5:9-12. Last weekend, DeSean Dyson left us reflecting on how to draw near as peacemakers in the Way of Jesus. We’re excited to continue to dig in and consider who this Beatitude is inviting us to be as we are present with Jesus.

This morning is Exploration Sunday and we are excited to welcome our guest, DeSean Dyson, to speak into our theme, Draw Near: A Year of Radical Presence.

This morning is Formation Sunday and Mike will be teaching on the next verses in the Beatitudes as we continue to explore our theme, Draw Near: A Year of Radical Presence. Matthew 5:5-6 – "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." We will also continue to practice Silence, Solitude, and Stillness as our quarterly formation practice - this month by an invitation to create space away from our phones.

This morning is Exploration Sunday and we are excited to welcome our first guests of the year, Mili and Beto Gudino, to speak into our theme, Draw Near: A Year of Radical Presence as we walk through Matthew 5-7.

This morning is Formation Sunday and we will continue introducing our new theme, Draw Near: A Year of Radical Presence! This year we are looking forward to spending our time in Matthew 5-7 and the Sermon on the Mount, finding ourselves sitting together at the feet of Jesus.

Part of our exploration this year will include extended time with each of our formation practices! For this first quarter, we will be focusing in on Silence, Solitude, and Stillness. Christine will introduce our first formation practice and begin preaching on the Beatitudes this Sunday – “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”

This Sunday our elders will be introducing our 2026 theme, Draw Near: a Year of Radical Presence.
