  • Episode 296: We Are Family: Gift and Responsibility (Romans: Message 4)

    30/10/2023 Duração: 31min

    Being part of a happy and healthy family is a gift, but it’s also a task and responsibility. We build love and support over time by the way we treat each other. This is true not only in our biological family but also in our church family. The quality of our relationships determines whether our church will be a safe place for people to healing and grow into the image of Jesus. The good news is that we get to decide what kind of presence we will be. In this message, Pastor Mark looks at three practices of a healthy church in Paul’s letter to the Romans, focusing on chapters 12-15. This empowers us to focus on what’s most important and be united in a common vision.    If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.   Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL)  Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds 

  • Episode 295: Healing Is Hard Work (Romans: Message 3)

    23/10/2023 Duração: 26min

    Everyone suffers, but not all suffering is the same. If we trust God, He can transform our pain into something productive. However, healing is hard work and takes time. Are we willing to put in the spiritual and emotional work necessary to build something new? Reflecting on the story of human trafficking victim, Barbara Amaya, Pastor Mark shows how God empowers us to participate in our own healing.Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL) Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.  

  • Episode 294: God Loves You To Death . . . and Saves You for a Purpose (Romans: Message 2)

    16/10/2023 Duração: 29min

    Why do Christians say, "God saves us through the death of Jesus?" And what's up with all the sacrifice and blood imagery in the Bible, which some people find cruel and gross? In this message, we answer these questions by pointing to an essential claim in Paul's letter to the Romans, that we are "justified by grace through faith." What exactly does this mean? Pastor Mark walks us through this idea, giving clear definitions and helping us to see that it all comes down to one thing: God loves you to death and saves you for a purpose!
