Cascade Community Church Podcast

In week 2 of Experiencing God, Pastor Nate speaks from the story of Moses' calling in Exodus 2-3. God is always at work around us -- so how do we listen and obey his invitation to join his purposes and plan? What stands in the way of hearing God?

It's one thing to know about God, it's quite another to awaken to a radically God-centered way of life. God is at work around you. Will you join Him?

Today, we will be looking at a big prayer that Isaiah prayed, "Here I am Lord send me." What does our calling as a Christian look like? Are we all called to be sent? We will hear God's word on this and hear testimonies of everyday people being sent out for the Gospel. Isaiah 6:6-8

850 to 1 aren't great odds. 850 to 1...plus God...is a majority. Pastor Nate tells the story of Elijah's "Battle of the gods" from 1 Kings 18. The point? Choose!

When do you pray? What do you pray for? Pastor Nate unpacks Jesus' prayer at Gethsemane and asks, "What if we learned to pray as Jesus prayed & to pray as Jesus commands?"

Is there a "Formula" prayer that really connects to God? Or is God simply desiring that prayer helps put Him in 1st Place in our lives? Pastor Nate unpacks the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6.

Living in community means dealing with sin, irritation and annoyances. People have to help us (and put up with us) -- and we get to help one another deal with the more difficult aspects of life. Because of Jesus, we make one another better. Continue the conversation. Click here to access this Sunday's followup questions.

Today Pastor Michael looks at Paul's call to us to serve one another in love.  Galatians 5:13 presents us with two options.  Will we use our freedom to serve ourselves selfishly.  Or will we serve one another.  Listen as we discover how God created us to respond to service. Continue the conversation! Click here for study resources.

Today Pastor Michael looks at Romans 15:7 where Paul encourages us to accept one another as Christ accepted us.  In our Church we often accept people based on how well they can keep up with our Religious Standards and how well they appear to belong.  Is this how Christ accepted us?  As we look closer at Paul's appeal to us we will learn how to accept and appreciate each other despite our differences.  Acceptance brings unity which makes us stronger together and able to accomplish His purpose for us.
