The Implanted Word Podcast

There are a lot of different voices practically yelling at us trying to get our attention in this world. Maybe it’s just society, our finances, our relationships, whatever it may be for you, there is always something desperately trying to pull our attention off of God and onto the world. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will bring to your attention all those various voices and their not-so-good intentions. In a distracting world, try and focus on the ONE true voice that matters….Jesus’ voice!

As called men and women of the Lord, we are meant to share the Word every single chance we get! We’re called to plant seeds of Jesus in ALL those around us! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will challenge you to dig deeper into the Word and spread it generously amongst those you know…and don’t know! When we can truly understand what God has for us in each story in the Bible, we will find ourselves sharing that truth in the most unlikely of places! So today, where can YOU share the love of Jesus?!

No matter who you are, what you’ve done, or even what you’re going to do, God calls all His people to be fishermen of men and women… of ALL people! We’re all called to seek the lost and tell them the good news of Jesus Christ! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will suggest to you that reading stories in the Bible is SO important! But, the better you can understand and truly absorb what God has for you in those stories, the better Christian you’ll be… and therefore the better fisher-man you’ll be! 

Over time as we live for God, we slowly start looking more and more like Him! As Christians, our main goal IS to look like Jesus, and the only way to do that is to live as Jesus lived. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will share that as you find your life less and less hectic, you will realize that that is because God is covering you with His love! That is because God is transforming you and creating you to look like Him! When you see more of God in your life, you will find a lack of sin and pain, and you will find love and joy! 

Being dogmatic on certain subjects is important. But, when it comes to spiritual things there is one very important factor that we must consider…Jesus! If we’re just being stubborn because we think we’re right, then we’re wrong. We can only be sure when Jesus tells us what’s right and wrong we can stand firm. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will remind you to ask for God’s guidance on what to stand strong on! Stop and ask yourself if it’s God’s will or your own as you advocate for what you believe!

When it comes to what the Bible is actually saying and what our faith truly means to us, it is crucial that we’re dogmatic! We need to stand up and be immovable on the things that really matter in our lives! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will actually encourage you to be stubborn! There are times and places where it IS important that we don’t just roll over and let other’s opinions change our view of God! The Lord has changed our lives forever, so it only makes sense that we stand up for that new life!

The only type of jealousy that really matters and could possibly be ok, is spiritual jealousy. Meaning you want what others have with Jesus. Not in a way that makes you blind to what God has done, is doing, and will do in your own life, but in a way that makes you want to strive to be closer to God. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will show you just how to do that! Look at what others have with Jesus and actively work towards that so you too can have a strong relationship with Jesus Christ!

You can do all the traditional Christian things, like going to church, reading your Bible, and praying, but unless you’re saved by Jesus Christ…you will still be stuck in a never-ending circle of sin. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will challenge you to seek Jesus, not just the actions of a Christian life. Having a relationship with your heavenly Father is what REALLY matters! Being connected to Jesus and allowing HIM to guide you is the difference between not being saved and being saved!

No matter what we do, good or bad, our lives are constantly communicating and producing something…as Christians, we want to be producing good and healthy fruit! We want God to nurture us and allow us to grow! In today’s message, Pastor Bill will invite YOU to invite GOD to work in and through you to cultivate a life that is full of healthy fruit that honors God and His will for your life! So, no matter what you do, you bear fruit, it is up to you to ask God to make it good fruit!

Loving one another is a very simple thing…yet SO difficult! If you think back to the last person who hurt you, maybe it was a friend, a family member, or even a coworker…it’s really hard to try and show them God’s love after everything. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will encourage you to seek God in those day-to-day struggles of trying to find some love for even your enemies! God tells you in the Bible that if you ask, He will answer. So, don’t be afraid to ask for a little help doing the one thing God told us to do.
