A Thrill Of Hope Pt. 3 (Joy to the world!) Pastor Markus Witherspoon

December 17, 2023 

The triumphant song with many different renditions reverberates during this time of year. It gets us thinking: what does the joy of this season invite us to experience? And what can this joy look like in the midst of the daily grind of life? Lean in as we discover more about joy inspired by the events leading up to the first Christmas!

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to not make the world your source of happiness, otherwise it can be easily stripped away

A Thrill Of Hope Pt. 2 (A Weary and Worried World ) Pastor Markus Witherspoon

December 10, 2023 

Studies have shown that 62% of people’s stress levels are “very” elevated during Christmas time. What? How does the season that trumpets words like “love,” “joy,” and “peace” also produce more worry? Listen in as we talk about Christ’s invitation to a life beyond the worries that plague our daily lives.

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to see that where we worry the most is where we trust God the least

2. Encouraged to see God’s care for birds and flowers as small but mighty reminders of how much he cares for us!

A Thrill Of Hope Pt. 1 (Waiting on the God of Hope) Pastor Mike Quinn

December 3, 2023 

Many of us might be surprised to see that the first Christmas was prefaced with some real people with real stories of hopelessness. You could say that hope was a rare commodity back then. And hey, I think people feel that way now. But that's why Christmas and the Gospel is so imperative. We are people of hope! And so we want to lean into a story where hope interfaces with our expectations and reality, as we learn from Pastor Mike Quinn.

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to remain faithful to God in seasons of waiting

2. Encouraged to listen for God to provide a word of hope in the midst of this season

Unlocked Pt. 3 (The Fruit of the Holy Spirit) Pastor Brooks Fuller

November 26, 2023 

Many of us get excited by the notion of the Holy Spirit bringing more of the presence and character of Jesus into our lives, and yet, we sense the disconnect and the conflict. Listen in as we talk about how to live in the Spirit and experience the “fruit” we all desire.

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to examine the fruit your life is producing

2 Encouraged to see how we can live by the power of the Spirit and not the flesh

Unlocked Pt. 2 (The Gifts of the Holy Spirit) Pastor Markus Witherspoon

November 19, 2023 

It’s easy to recognize the ways in which we all have innate talents, but did you know that you are not just talented, you are spiritually gifted? Lean in as we talk about the Holy Spirit-empowered gifts we are given to benefit the communities around us!

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to prioritize using your gifts for the benefit of others

2. Encouraged to see your gifting as a way God has called you to play an important role in the world

Unlocked Pt. 1 (The Power of the Holy Spirit) Pastor JoAnn Johnson

November 12, 2023 

Have you ever had a time when you had to live with a roommate? Maybe it was during college or during a part of your early adulthood or some other circumstances. When you live with a roommate it is like living with a stranger. Many of us view the Holy Spirit in a similar way. He is like a stranger who has access to us but we don’t know how to interact with him. Listen in to JoAnn Johnson at the Newbreak Church Tierrasanta Campus as we talk about what the Holy Spirit unlocks for us as we kick off this series!

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to let the Holy Spirit show you a better way of living

2. Encouraged to open yourself to the Holy Spirit

Live Dead (Kingdom Builders) Pastor Markus Witherspoon

November 5, 2023 

There are numerous stories coming from our global partners telling us about how the unreached are actually being reached with the life-changing message of Jesus! When we hear this we double down on our belief that we are to continue to support these partners and also that we are to live more like them in our own context as well.

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to embrace a “Live Dead” mentality

2. Encouraged to see how our contribution participates in the Great Commission!

Thriving in Babylon Pt. 6 (The Pattern and the Promise) Pastor Markus Witherspoon

October 29, 2023 

The headlines are always despairing. It is easy to lose hope and wonder how God’s word provides us guidance to carry on. But that’s why we need the message of Daniel chapter 7. Lean in as we talk about the pattern, the promise, and the plan that carries us forward from Babylon then to Babylon now!

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to not let despair shape our worldview

2. Encouraged to live as people of hope since we know the pattern and promise of God

Thriving in Babylon Pt. 5 (Courage to Face the Lions) Pastor JoAnn Johnson

October 22, 2023 

Fair weather fans are looked down upon by sports enthusiasts. These are the fans who switch their allegiance based on their team’s performance. They love a team one week when all is well but then abandon them when they are not winning. This serves as a great analogy for the life of faith. Join us as we look at what it means to be faithful to God, not wavering in our commitment even as hardships arise.

As you listen in, you will be:

1. Challenged to dig deep and develop courage in the midst of cultural hostility

2. Encouraged to grasp some tools that help us remain faithful
