The Farmville Baptist Church Podcast

Welcome back to the Farmville Baptist Podcast! In this season of Easter, we continue our sermon series in 1 Peter - Exiles...with Hope. We know we are to live as exiles who have hope, but where do we have our confidence as hopeful exiles? Pastor Adam discusses how our baptism, and the life we pledge to live, gives us hope because the resurrected Jesus makes that life possible. This week, we also had a child dedication service in worship with several of our church families. The choir enhances this Sunday service with the anthem, "Love One Another."

Welcome! This is a new sort of episode for the Farmville Baptist Podcast. We have launched a new group on Facebook for our family of faith, in addition to our church page on Facebook. That new group page is Life Together @ Farmville Baptist (https://www.facebook.com/groups/258792469845940/), and we'd love for you to connect with us there. One of the things happening on that new group page is Wednesday Word, a short devotional thought Pastor Adam will post each Wednesday. This week, he shares a short word of insight from John 14:15.

Welcome back to the Farmville Baptist Podcast as we continue to celebrate Easter! This week's service introduced a new sermon series from 1 Peter - Exiles...with Hope.

On Palm Sunday, the congregation gathered to hear how Jesus entered Jerusalem to publicly claim his calling as God's Messiah, challenging the status quo and proclaiming a new, different way. Our choir also led us in a processional hymn, "Hosanna to the Living Lord," and shared the anthem, "On the Road to Jerusalem."

Happy Easter! As we gathered to worship together on Easter Sunday, we heard the good news of the resurrection from Matthew 28. Pastor Adam highlighted the calling and willingness of two women, Mary Magdalene and another Mary, to share the amazing news they witnessed at the tomb, and he reminded us how all of us are called to share what good news we know with those around us. The choir also offered a beautiful anthem, "Empty Now," and a choral benediction, "Alleluia! Christ is Risen!"

Holy Week showcases the story of Jesus' final week in Jerusalem with his disciples, and many of the parts of that story are familiar. Yet one group of characters is often overlooked or pushed to the side: the women of Holy Week. Throughout this week, we will hear their stories and ponder what they reveal to us about the great love of God as shown in Christ's death and resurrection. On this Friday of Holy Week, we join Jesus' female disciples as they watch their Lord die.

Throughout Holy Week, we want to encourage you to reflect on the death and resurrection of Jesus. Here on the podcast, we will offer daily reflections for your own devotional use. On Thursday April 6, Farmville Baptist will join with Heritage Baptist Church at 7 PM for a Maundy Thursday service, and Heritage will join Farmville Baptist on Friday April 7 for a noontime Good Friday service.
