In this Trinity Sunday and Father’s Day message, Pastor Mark explores how truth isn’t just something we learn—it’s someone we follow. Rooted in John 16:12–15, this sermon invites us to embrace humility, community, and truth as essential parts of the Christian journey. You’ll hear a powerful story about healing through slow truth-telling, unpack the mystery of the Trinity, and learn why intellectual humility and deep Christian community are crucial in a world obsessed with certainty and self-reliance.

Key Themes: – Why the truth sometimes comes in stages – How the Holy Spirit guides us into deeper understanding – The danger of certainty disguised as faith – Why we can’t grow in truth alone – A special word of encouragement for fathers and men of faith Ready to say yes to the journey of truth?

29:37

In a world filled with anxiety, fear, and nonstop bad news, many of us are tempted to cope through “doom spending”—buying things we don’t need just to feel something solid in an uncertain world. But on Pentecost, God gave us something far more powerful than retail therapy: the gift of the Holy Spirit. In this message, Pastor Mark Reynolds explores how the Spirit meets us in our fear, leads us with peace, and anchors us in a future filled with purpose—not panic. Through Scripture, stories, and practical insight, you’ll be reminded that: You are not alone in your struggles. You are a child of God and an heir with Christ. The Spirit is still being poured out—right here, right now. And in God’s family, no one is forgotten or left behind. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or simply need encouragement, this sermon will help you trade fear for faith and discover God's unshakable hope. 📖 Scripture: Acts 2:1–21; Romans 8 🔔 Subscribe for more uplifting messages and practical tips for spiritual growth. 🙏 Support Our Ministries: If this message has blessed you, consider making a donation at www.fumccb.com to help us continue our work. 📅 Worship With Us: Sundays at 9:30 AM (in-person/online) & 11:00 AM (in-person).

Episode 373: When Heaven Comes Down: How the Hope of Heaven Shapes the Way We Live Today 44:14

What happens when we die? And what does heaven really look like? In this powerful Memorial Day weekend message, we explore the astonishing story of Casey Cleveland—a worship leader who suffered a massive stroke and experienced a profound peace on the brink of death. His near-death testimony offers a glimpse of something greater… but Scripture tells us there’s even more. Drawing from Revelation 21, this sermon challenges popular ideas about heaven and paints a more hopeful, grounded picture: not of escape, but of renewal. A holy city. A world made whole. God’s presence with us, forever. If you’ve ever wondered about life after death—or struggled to find meaning in the here and now—this message will bring comfort, clarity, and hope. 📩 Share this episode with someone who needs a reminder that the best is yet to come. 🔔 Subscribe for more uplifting messages and practical tips for spiritual growth. 🙏 Support Our Ministries: If this message has blessed you, consider making a donation at www.fumccb.com to help us continue our work. 📅 Worship With Us: Sundays at 9:30 AM (in-person/online) & 11:00 AM (in-person).

In this powerful message, Pastor Mark explores God's original call to Abraham in Genesis 12:2–3: “I will bless you… and you will be a blessing.” From the very beginning, God’s plan has been to use ordinary people to share extraordinary love—and the best friendships are built by those who live to bless others. 🎯 Big Idea: If you want good friends, be a good friend—and live a life that blesses others.

Loneliness is dangerous. In 2023, the U.S. Surgeon General declared that isolation poses risks as serious as smoking or obesity. But long before the studies and statistics, the Bible told us the same thing: “It is not good for humans to be alone” (Genesis 2:18). In this powerful sermon, Pastor Mark continues our Friend-ology series with a deeper look at how radical independence and unchecked isolation can open the door to personal and moral collapse. Through the story of David and Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11), we see the real cost of going it alone—and the redemptive power of truth spoken in love. 👥 Discover why you need meaningful, accountable friendships—and how God uses them to bring healing, growth, and grace. You’ll learn: Why strong relationships are essential to emotional, physical, and spiritual health How our culture’s obsession with self-sufficiency works against God’s design The dangers of isolation, even for the strongest leaders Why you need a “Nathan” in your life—and how to find one How Christian community reflects God’s heart and mediates God’s grace 🙏 Whether you’re struggling with isolation or looking to deepen your connections, this message offers hope, challenge, and a path forward. ➡️ Don’t walk alone.

23:38

As we enter Holy Week, we're reminded of the profound lessons Jesus imparted in His final days. The central themes of love, forgiveness, and justice intertwine, forming the core of our Christian faith. Pastor Beth Burton reminds us that we're called to love deeply, forgive generously, and seek justice relentlessly - not as mere actions, but as a way of life. These principles, embodied by Christ on the cross, challenge us to examine our own lives. How can we love like Jesus, crossing boundaries and risking rejection? In what ways can we offer forgiveness as radical as Christ's 'Father, forgive them'? Where is God calling us to confront injustice in our world? As we reflect on these questions, we're invited to see ourselves through Christ's eyes, ransomed from fear and hatred, and given back to God. 🔔 Subscribe for more uplifting messages and practical tips for spiritual growth. 🙏 Support Our Ministries: If this message has blessed you, consider making a donation at www.fumccb.com to help us continue our work. 📅 Worship With Us: Sundays at 9:30 AM (in-person/online) & 11:00 AM (in-person).
