Episodes

  1. Reckoning and Renewing: Voices Along the Way

    Part of the Reckoning and Renewing journey, FBC members Rob Marus and Janice Osborn offer the sermon. Their theme is "What I Inherited," a return to the question the series began with. What did your family hand you, spoken or unspoken, about race, difference, or who belongs? They share what…

  2. Reckoning and Renewing: Which Jesus?

    First Baptist continues our five-week series, Reckoning and Renewing, a chance to look honestly at our own story and our nation's, the dark pieces along with the redeeming ones. Pastor Julie preaches "Which Jesus?" from Matthew 16:13-20, where Jesus asks his disciples, "Who do you say that I am?"...

  3. Reckoning and Renewing: Midnight in America

    First Baptist's five-week series, Reckoning and Renewing, is a chance to look honestly at our own story and our nation's, the dark pieces along with the redeeming ones. When we can name what's true about the past without flinching, that past loses its power to hold us in regret or shame. The…

  4. Reckoning and Renewing: The Inheritance We Didn't Choose

    Luke 4:16-21 opens a five-week series at First Baptist called Reckoning and Renewing, a chance to look honestly at our own story and our nation's, the dark pieces along with the redeeming ones. When we can name what's true about the past without flinching, that past loses its power to hold us in...

  5. Still Here When Mercy Offends

    Pastor Eric wraps up the sermon series, Still Here: When Holding On Is Holy Enough, a four-week journey through the Hebrew Bible with people who had reached the end of themselves. The sermon immerses us in the story of Jonah. In this passage, we sit with a prophet who is furious — not because God...

  6. Still Here When the Wound Is Old

    Pastor Eric continues the sermon series, Still Here: When Holding On Is Holy Enough, a four-week journey through the Hebrew Bible with people who had reached the end of themselves. The sermon revisits the story of Joseph. In Genesis 50, Joseph's brothers are terrified now that their father has...

  7. Still Here When It’s Too Much

    In this passage, Pastor Eric continues the sermon series, Still Here: When Holding On is Holy Enough, a four-week journey through the Hebrew Bible with people who had reached the end of themselves. Earlier in the series the journey sits with Jeremiah's burn out and honest complaint. Here the…

  8. Still Here When You’re Burned Out

    "Still Here: When Holding On is Holy Enough" is a sermon series from Pastor Eric, a four-week journey through the Hebrew Bible with people who had reached the end of themselves. Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Joseph, and Jonah. These are not tidy people, and Scripture does not look away from them. In fact…

  9. Say It with Your Life

    Pastor Julie turns to Matthew 16:13-20, where Jesus puts the question to Peter: "Who do you say that I am?" Peter answers correctly—only to discover that saying the words is just the beginning. A confession like this one isn't something you recite…it's something you live. With "Say It with Your...

  10. Crumbs and Categories

    A Canaanite woman refuses to stop shouting for her daughter's life, even after Jesus tries to wave her off. Pastor Julie preaches the message, "Crumbs and Categories," from Matthew 15:21-28. She persists past the silence, past the dismissal, past every category that says she doesn't belong. The...

  11. Little Faith, Big Water

    Pastor Julie preaches the message "Little Faith, Big Water" from Matthew 14:22-33. The disciples are alone on the sea, straining against the wind in the dark hours before dawn. The wind is against them. The waves are climbing into the boat when a figure appears walking toward them across the…

  12. Five Loaves, Two Fish, No Math

    The story doesn't add up—five loaves and two fish shouldn't feed thousands, but when offered to God in trust and thanksgiving, they become part of an unlimited treasury of blessing. Abundance that outruns arithmetic. The sermon explores Matthew 14:13-21. Pastor Julie preaches. Readings: Psalm...

  13. Hidden and Holy

    Pastor Julie preaches on Matthew 13:31–33, 44–51. A mustard seed. A pinch of yeast. A coin, a pearl, a net. The sermon turns to five small stories about the reign of God—and how it keeps showing up in the most ordinary places. In these brief parables, Jesus points to a kindom that grows quietly,...

  18. What If I'm Mad at God?

    Honest, unvarnished, straight-from-the-gut prayer is everywhere in Scripture. Which raises a question worth sitting with: Why do so many of us think it's off-limits? Moses didn't. In this text, he tells God he's done—overwhelmed, furious, ready to quit. It is not a polite prayer. And yet it's the...
