Hey there! Ready to discover what it truly means to love like no other?

In this episode, Pastor Jason Tucker, Discipleship Pastor for The Tabernacle Church, wraps up the "Summer of Love" series with a powerful message on seeing what God sees. This isn't just about feeling warm and fuzzy; it's about a radical, transformative kind of love.

You'll dive into practical insights inspired by Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan, exploring how to:

• Act despite inconvenience – because God's priority is always people, even when your schedule is packed.
• Be a first responder – understanding that as a Christian, it's your job to step into needs right there and then, not wait for someone else.
• Invest your resources – learning that truly loving people often means caring about them more than your money, just as God demonstrates His love by giving.
• Connect people to help – realizing you don't need all the answers; sometimes, the greatest help is linking someone to the right support.

Pastor Jason shares compelling stories, from a judge-free approach to a struggling father at a movie theater to the incredible compassion of an 85-year-old Episcopal priest. You'll also hear how figures like Phil Robertson learned to love their enemies by "killing it with kindness".

This message challenges us to abandon judgment and embrace compassion, seeing people not as problems, but as "the mission" – a "harvest" full of potential. If you find yourself struggling to love that person – whether it's a family member, a colleague, or someone who just bugs you – this episode is for you. Learn why God is the ultimate source of love and how spending time with Him is the only way to truly imitate Jesus and love like He does.

Tune in to understand that love has no loopholes and how connecting with God's heart can help you love in ways you never thought possible!

Hey TAB Family! 👋 Ready to unlock a radical approach to relationships? Dive into 'Kill'em with Kindness,' the first message in our eye-opening 'Summer of Love' series with Pastor Carl Catalanotto! 🎧

In this powerful episode, we're flipping the script on natural reactions like "you hit me, I'm going to hit you". Learn how to tap into supernatural kindness — not the "favor system" kind where you expect something back, but the unconditional, no-strings-attached generosity that only comes from God. You'll discover:

• Why blessing those who curse you and doing good to those who hate you is a game-changer that's "not a natural thing to do" but "supernatural".
• How showing God's kindness can literally lead people to repentance by exposing their own ungodliness and causing them to see themselves as they truly are. This is what it means to "heap burning coals on his head".
• That kindness isn't just a nice gesture; it's a powerful fruit of the Holy Spirit—alongside love, joy, peace, forbearance, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—designed to keep you from being overcome by evil.
• Practical ways to grow in kindness, from sacrificial giving to those in need (especially within the family of believers first) to speaking life-giving words that cheer up anxious hearts.
• The incredible truth that God rewards you for living this supernaturally kind life, even if the reward doesn't come in the way you expect. Don't expect anything back from those you show kindness to, but expect something from God.

Pastor Carl shares deeply personal insights and biblical wisdom from Romans 12, Luke 6, Proverbs 25, and Galatians 5, showing us how to imitate Christ and truly be different in the world.

We're tackling a massive question: What does it really mean for your life to count in God's eyes? 🤔

Pastor Carl kicks things off by sharing his incredible personal story and then dives into a powerful, and frankly, kind of scary scripture from Matthew 7. He talks about the "nightmare" where Jesus tells people who did amazing religious works, "I never knew you." Yikes!

Hey there! Tune in to hear Pastor Lee Lukinovich share about his eye-opening first trip to Africa, where he saw people full of the joy of the Lord and excited about Jesus, even with limited resources. He contrasts this with how we sometimes treat faith here, where Christianity can feel just tolerated.

In this message, titled Faith Pleases God, Pastor Lee dives into what faith is, how it literally taps into heaven, and why really trusting God is something that pleases Him.

You'll also hear why it's impossible to please God without faith and how He longs to be celebrated, not just tolerated.

Give it a listen and get inspired to live by faith!

Hey! 👋 Ever think about how what you do today could really impact tomorrow? 🤔

In this message, "Living Today for Tomorrow," which is the final part of our "Past. Present. Future." series, Haylie Lukinovich dives into what it means to live a "kingdom-minded" life right now for the future.

Drawing on powerful stories, like Abraham Lincoln's determination to abolish slavery (even risking his reputation and facing huge opposition!) and the woman who poured out incredibly expensive perfume on Jesus (worth more than a year's wages!), you'll discover three key things:

1. Valuing Jesus above everything else, including things that seem super valuable to us (Think about an asteroid worth 10 quintillion dollars... and how God owns that!).
2. Ignoring the "indignant voices" that tell you not to sacrifice for God – often, these are the voices in our own heads!.
3. Doing what you can with what you have, because it will make a difference (Just like that woman's perfume honored Jesus even as he suffered!).

This message is a great reminder that living for Jesus today has eternal impact. Tune in! 👇

Hey there! Get ready for message #2 in our "Past. Present. Future." series, titled "Embracing the Moment", from Pastor Cliff Lodriguss.

In this episode, Pastor Cliff gets super real about the daily stress we all face, sharing stories from the joyful (like his son David's birth) to the not-so-joyful (think car transmission going out and a leaking water heater!). He talks about how finding simple moments to just be present, like an unexpected trip to Home Depot with his son Caleb, can totally shift your perspective and help you stop stressing about what already happened or what's coming next week.

This message dives into Jesus' words in Matthew 6:33-34, reminding us to not worry about tomorrow because today has enough going on already. But how do you actually live that out? Pastor Cliff breaks down what it means to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness.

He explains "seeking first" isn't out of fear, but an excited, passionate pursuit of Jesus because He's incredibly valuable. "His kingdom" is about embracing His perfect rule and leadership – something we should actually relish being under, contrasting with our natural desire for independence. And "His righteousness" means learning His amazing character and nature relationally, like learning from an earthly father, which changes how we live.

The awesome result? When you make God the priority, He promises that "all these things" – your provision and security – will be added. Pastor Cliff uses the relatable picture of kids not worrying about bills or food because they just trust their parents, saying we can trust our perfect Heavenly Father even more. As Psalm 37:25 says, he's never seen those who follow God left without.

This peace and provision are for those who are part of God's family through the blood of Jesus. Pastor Cliff encourages listeners to remember who their Father is when worry hits, do what they know is right, and stand on the truth that He's got you.
