Cascade Community Church Podcast

The Gospel of Jesus brings new life, and the resurrection is the culmination of the gospel. Join us for our online celebration services as we examine the encounter that changed the Apostle Paul’s life forever and ask the question, “Has the Gospel brought ME new life?”

Galatians 2:1-10, Luke 15:11-32 Today we look at two groups of people and compare them to the Older Brother and the Younger Brother in the prodigal parable. Jesus’ plan is for the gospel to bring us from different places to a unity found in the truth of the pure gospel. Jesus did the work. Jesus died for all. So all can come to Him and be unified in the gospel.

Pastor Joel Madson - Galatians 2:11-21 If the gospel is alive in our lives then our lives should reflect the gospel.

Dan Bushy - Pastor & Missionary. This passage is a call to the church about the great work that Jesus Christ did for us when he died on the cross. It shows us that we can not earn God's righteousness, His forgiveness, His acceptance or His love by our own self-righteous works. We must come to Him in faith for the duration of our Christian walk.

May 10th, 2020 - Pastor Michael Lodge The Gospel is good news that will take a life time to explore! Jesus gives us the free gift of salvation through faith in what He has done. We don't have to earn our salvation by good works. So what happens to the Law? Does it serve a purpose? Today we will see how the Gospel changes our relationship with God and the Law. Something that used to be a burden has now become an expression of Love!

Galatians 5:1-15 What do we do with the Freedom that Jesus has given us? We are so quick to use it for our own selfish purposes. In today's climate and with all the issues facing our Church, Community, and Country we need to hear from the Word of God. Our Freedom is given to us to love our Neighbor!

June 21st, 2020 - The gospel should change everything in our lives. Paul calls us to check our attitudes and be intentional with our relationships in the easy times as well as the difficult times. The gospel changes the way we forgive, challenge, and bear each other’s burdens. The gospel should change the way we relate to our friends, families, and community relationships.

Pastor Michael Lodge - Galatians 6:6-18 Today we wrap up Galatians. This is Paul's final plea for the readers to return to the Gospel and experience it's life-changing love. As we read along can we find our hearts responding to the call of the Gospel!

His Power from the Pit - Finding God's transforming power in difficult circumstances. Pastor Michael Lodge

 In the first chapter of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount he repeats the phrase "but I say" several times. What follows is always a call to more than we would ever call ourselves to.

Jesus's invitation to pray deeply, live generously, worry less, forgive more, and so much more are all dependent upon us hearing his words and living them out. Today we listen...and live. This is "solid foundation" living.

Last week we started the One Another Series. Today we look at the one “One Another” that begins them all! Jesus gave the command to Love One Another to the Disciples to define them and the Church for the rest of time. 2,000 years later this command still challenges us. This One Another is the brand that defines us within the Church and to the world around us. We can’t practice any One Another without first understanding how to Love One Another.

Are you suffering from O.A.D? One Another Deprivation? Then this series is for you and everyone else that follows Jesus! We Need One Another! All through the scriptures we are told to love one another in many different ways. Today we start the series by looking at the churches historical need for the "One Another's" and why we need them today!

June 14th, 2020 Galatians - Galatians 5:16-25 There is a battle that rages in each of us between the flesh and the spirit. As we walk in step with the Spirit we will overcome the flesh and produce the fruit of the spirit.

May 31st, 2020  The Gospel is good news! We have been saved from an old life and adopted into a new family. With that family comes a new family name! Jesus wants to change not only you but your future family line as well! He changes us to change the future. Join us as we study Paul's analogy of our family name.

As followers of Jesus our path is always before us and never behind. Our eyes stay focused on Christ and our identity in Him. This leads us to a life spent loving God, living out the good news, and sharing the gospel wherever God leads us. The gospel is what we love, we live, and we give. What has become of the gospel in you and your identity in Christ?

Galatians 3:25 - 4:7 Pastor Michael Lodge When we understand our identity as an adopted child of God everything in our life changes! Jesus gives us the Spirit of adoption by which we cry out “Abba”! We now have a new motivation for living life. We get to bear the resemblance of our Father. We have assurance, intimacy, freedom, and an inheritance! When we connect with our lives as children of God we find an exciting new identity to live out!

Keith Ferrin, Author & Speaker We live in a society that treats the Bible as an out-of-date, religious text. Maybe it was valuable a long time ago. But not today. Or is it? We'll kick off this 3-week series by exploring why would should read the Bible.

We are overwhelmed with abundance and resources in life. It’s easy to live as if we don’t really need God. Jesus calls us to Fast for the King’s agenda. In fasting we remind ourselves of our great need for God and our need to fall in line with Him. This is a means of grace that He uses to draw us into His presence.

February 9, 2020 - Prayers of Intimacy Pastor Michael Lodge We want to have the King's Agenda for our lives personally, and for our church. Today we will see how Jesus calls us into private moments of prayer to hear His voice for our lives. If we want to know His agenda we have to spend time with Him in prayer. Don't miss this invitation to a life of prayer and intimacy!
