In his recent sermon on John 5:16-47, Pastor Eric illuminates how Jesus openly declares His divinity, underlining the fundamental truth that Jesus being God is essential for Christianity's significance. He insightfully discusses our common struggle: we often seek honor and validation from one another rather than turning our eyes towards God. This quest for human approval can lead us away from truly listening to and trusting in the Father. Pastor Eric encourages us to shift our focus back to God, reminding us that our faith and identity should be rooted in Him above all. Through this message, we're invited to deepen our relationship with Jesus, recognizing Him as God and reorienting our lives to seek divine, not human, approval.

The Village Church’s sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God’s work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose.

Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.
