Jim Parsons' Podcast

We end this worship series this week and look at the last piece of scripture in the 25th Chapter of Matthew. Today we learn about the judgment of the nations and where Jesus, the judge, will seperate the sheep from the goats. May we be like the sheep who see people in need and we offer what we have. Then we will hear from Jesus, "Come, you who will receive good things from my Father."Please join us at 10:00am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online at the link below. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

We are in a worship series based on Bishop Ken Carter's book, "Unrelenting Grace." This week we look at the way of grace unites us with God and each other.

God helps define humanity's relationship with creation in the second creation story of Genesis. We look at Genesis 2:4-15 this week to see what that relationship is supposed to look like. It states we are to work and protect creation. Humanity is to look after this world because it is a gift from God but for centuries we have seen it simply as a resource to abuse. Please join us at 10:00am in person (1630 Statesville Blvd in Salisbury, NC) or online at the link below. Thank you again for worshipping with us.

For the next three weeks we take some time to reflect on God's creation and how it calls out to us. This week, nature reveals God's beauty, order, power, and tenacity.

All the Canaanite woman wants is to heal her daughter who has been suffering for a long time. Jesus won't have it though and attempts to ignore her.

Jesus is asked a question by a certain ruler of a synogogue. This quesiton leads Jesus to offer a command for this rich ruler's life. Jesus offers him a second chance to dive deeper into his discipleship but what does the ruler do?

Jesus gives us another parable about the kingdom of heaven. How do we, as his disciples, hear this parable and react to our roles within the kingdom?

Jesus gives us a wonderful parable today, the Parable of the Soils. What does this parable tell us about our walk as a disciple of Jesus Christ though?

We are discovering what it looks like to be a disciple as we look at Jesus' teachings in Matthew. Today we continue with three wonderful verses from Matthew 11:28-30.
