Springville Church of the Nazarene's Podcast

Pastor Mark has been sharing from some of the "one another" passages in the New Testament during his Midweek Devotionals on Wednesdays.  This Sunday sermon compliments that series as we discover what the Bible says about "respect."  After identifying the biblical reasons for respect, Pastor Mark then offers practical advice on "how" to respect one another, sharing a recipe for respect using the acronym R-E-S-P-E-C-T.  

The background noise you are hearing is actually the river as we were blessed to have outdoor services today in our beautiful little town.  Today Pastor Mark teaches on the Sovereignty of God as we continue the Knowing God series.  God is sovereign...He can do anything at any place that fulfills His purpose.  He is the only one with complete control of everything.  This sovereignty brings many questions to mind...what about the evil in the world?  How can we have free will if God controls everything...and many more questions.  Listen as Pastor Mark does his best to answer these questions.

Today Pastor Mark continues in the series "Knowing God" and shares that God is Love.  That Love is the most powerful, life-changing love in the world.  God's love is Wide, Long, High and Deep!  It is wide enough to include everyone;  It is long enough to be everlasting; It is high enough to reach everywhere; and it is deep enough to solve everything.  No matter where you are or what you are going through this very moment, know that God's love is enough!  How will you respond to His love today? 

Today is the 5th lesson in the series:  Knowing God and is on His Faithfulness.  The more we know God the easier it is to trust Him.  There are three scriptural truths about this God that we serve: He cannot do a wrong, He always tells the truth and He cannot break a promise.  The Lord is faithful to all His promises.  Listen as Pastor Mark give just eight of those promises.  He can be trusted.  The question is, "Will we trust Him"?

Hope you all are staying healthy and safe!  Today we continue in the series Knowing God and look carefully at God's grace.  As Pastor Mark shares, "Grace is God giving us what we need...not what we deserve".  We all need God's saving Grace....His sanctifying Grace and His Sustaining Grace!  Listen and learn about this amazing Grace.

Today we continue in the series Knowing God.  God is all powerful and He has told us that the very power that raised Jesus from the dead is ours.  What does that mean?  What can we do to see more of that power in our lives?  Listen as Pastor Mark gives us some very practical ways that we can put into practice.

We here at Springville Naz hope that you are all staying safe during this challenging time.  Today in our series Knowing God, we learn that God is Omnipresent...He is everywhere at once all the time.  He is not limited by time or space.  No one can hide where He can not see them.  That means that God is present with us.  Today Pastor Mark shares the blessings that come with God being present with us.  Listen and find comfort.

Still meeting online with prayer, music and videos and today's very special lesson beginning a series on Knowing God.  Today Pastor Mark teaches that God is Omniscient...all knowing!  There is nothing, past, present or future that our God does not know and that means He knows everything there is to know about ME and YOU!  He knows my faults, my frustrations, my fears, my future and my faith.  Listen, as we together, get to know more about our loving God.

Thanking the Lord for modern technology as we continue this week to meet through social media.  Today Pastor Mark reflects on the early church and how they dealt with the challenges of their time.  Listen and hear how the early church had five "No Other's"; convictions that held them together with purpose and hope.

Celebrating Easter in a unique way this year as we are practicing social distancing.  Please join us as we celebrate the most powerful day in history.  Sing along as we worship and then join as we partake in communion.  Do you believe in the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  Listen as Pastor Mark gives, not only scriptural evidence but also, secular historical evidence that Jesus did indeed rise from the dead.  This recording could change your life for all eternity.
