The Knowing Jesus Podcast
Knowing Jesus is critical to growing in our faith. This weekly companion podcast to our sermon series "Knowing Jesus" will be hosted by the FaithLife Church pastors. Each episode will dive deeper into the Sunday sermon and will offer reflections, deeper dives, teaching, and ways to connect faith and life. “Knowing Jesus" is meant to engage the hearts and minds of all generations and show us that learning who Jesus is and what he has done changes everything.
Episodes
We had A LOT of fun during this season of filming our podcast. Look back on our favorite moments and reflections with Pastors Alice, John, and MIchele. We'll be back this fall with more podcast content.
Jesus is Fully Alive and still reigning today. Sarah Bartlett (Director of FaithLife Groups) and Michelle Meyers (Director of NextGen Ministries) join Pastor Alice Murray for the LAST podcast in the Knowing Jesus sermon series! What scripture or moment from the Knowing Jesus series has stuck with you?
FaithLife Executive Director Pam Schulz joins the podcast to dive deep into
John 21:15-25 and talk about how Jesus reinstates Peter to ministry. How does Peter's reinstatement give you hope? What does Jesus's command to follow Him mean to you, right here, right now?
Jesus meets us in the ordinary with the extraordinary. How is His glory revealed to us in the everyday? The pastors dig in to John 21:1-14 and discuss how they see Jesus in their regular lives.
We have a special guest on today - Michelle Meyers, Director of NextGen Ministries talks to us some today about our Confirmation Service!
We've got a special guest on the podcast today - Pastor Keeyon Carter from Wellington Heights Community Church in Cedar Rapids, IA.
The pastors / rappers ad lib and discuss John 20: 24-31 and dig into doubt and its role in faith. What have been some of the most important moments of doubt in your life that have led to deeper faith?
Jesus knows YOUR name and it changes everything. The pastors dig into John 20:11-18 and want you to know - you aren't here by accident.
Reflecting on your past week, where have you heard a "whisper" of Jesus calling your name? What is one practical way you can respond to that call this week?
He is risen! He is risen indeed! The pastors discuss Easter Sunday and dig into Mark 16:1-8. As you reflect on this past holy week, what do you feel Jesus is saying he wants to do in your life?
The Fab Four are back together and ready to bring on Holy Week at FaithLife! They discuss John 12:12-19 and talk about the King of Kings!
What can we take away and apply to our lives this week as we look at the different reactions from the disciples, the crowd, and the Pharisees as Jesus enters Jerusalem.
There's a special guest on the podcast today - NOAH! The group discusses Matthew 10:1-20 and where God is leading them to go.
What about you - where is God calling you to go right now?
The toughest challenge you will ever face in life is blessing others by giving away your money. The pastors dig into Mark 10:17-27 as they discuss the fourth discipleship target "giving" from the Red Letter Challenge.
What’s one step you can take this week to be a better giver?
Pastor Zach Zehnder joins the podcast for a pop quiz, discussion, and some laughs. In this week of serving (from the Red Letter Challenge), how might you serve your family, neighbors, coworkers, and community?
How to Be a Forgiver:
- Receive forgiveness like you receive grace, humbly.
- Offer forgiveness like Jesus offers grace, freely.
- While forgiving freely, don’t let go of your boundaries.
- Understand that sometimes forgiveness takes intentional time.
After Pastor Paul's message on forgiveness, we received a lot of questions and comments and wanted to discuss our answers further!
The pastors use the practice of Lectio Divina to discuss Mark 2:23-3:6. Who are you “being” with this week?
Our calling is to surrender to our fully capable Savior, Jesus.
Let's use the "5C Method" to dig into Mark 9:14-29. We're wrapping up our "Fully Capable" section in our Knowing Jesus series.
What a podcast! Mark 5:1-20 opens up lots of topics for discussion. Pastors Paul and John talk football, the demon-possessed man, and some pigs.
Being a disciple of Jesus can be really challenging. But the challenge does not overcome the good news of Jesus:
- He walks on water to us.
- He gives us courage.
- He invites us to participate in the miraculous.
- He calms the storms of our lives.
The pastors dig into Matthew 14:22-36 in episode 22 of the Knowing Jesus podcast.
The need for compassion doesn’t always come at convenient times. The pastors break down Mark 6:30-44. In your life right now, what is your "five loaves and two fish"—that small thing you feel is too insignificant for God to use?
As disciples of Jesus, we need to know his mission: to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God.
Pastors Alice, John, and Michele rate Pastor Paul's message and dig into John 9: 1-39. We pray that God will open our eyes to His work among us— even when it challenges our expectations.
The pastors reflect on our special "Service of Healing & Prayer" from January 11 and the story of Jesus and the ten lepers. (Luke 17: 11-19)
If you were at the service (or watched online) where did you most sense God’s presence: in silence, prayer, worship, or community? What part of the service stayed with you the most?
Rise and go; your faith has made you well.
