Josh McPherson

God wants you to have a critical mind, not a critical spirit. Unfortunately, “Christian discernment bloggers” is code word for Jerk, and criticizing the church has become a budding cottage industry. Pick on a church and you’re sure to gain a following. But the spirit of the critic originated from the first Critic, Satan himself, and when we become critical, we pull hell up into our relationships. In this sermon Pastor Josh unpacks the difference between the spirit of the critic, the work of the prophetic, and how to cultivate discernment without becoming a life-sucking critic to yourself and relationships around you.Support the showThanks for listening!

The most compelling apologetic for Jesus is not a well-turned phrase but a radically changed life. In Week 18 of our Book of Acts series, Pastor Josh McPherson guides us through the process God uses to sanctifies saints as demonstrated in the story of Saul of Tarsus becoming the Apostle Paul. Before God knocked him off his horse he was a well-off, gritty, genius, workhorse, who was a single, religious, zealous, wrong man who God radically redeemed and transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit through one simple act of obedience at a time.Support the showThanks for listening!

When asked to describe Christianity, Theologian J.I. Packer said, “God Saves Sinners”.  Nowhere is this truth more powerfully described than in the story of the Apostle Paul’s conversion in Acts Chapter 9. In this sermon, Pastor Josh McPherson walks us through just how God can take broken sinners who are far from Himself to people who powerfully live their new lives for God’s glory in Jesus’ name.Support the showThanks for listening!

Following Jesus on mission can get messy, but it’s a mess worth making. Sometimes you’ve got to go through hard places to get to the low-hanging harvest. In this sermon from Acts 8:4-25, Pastor Adam looks at the ministry of Phillip in Samaria and unpacks five ways mission is messy and five reasons it’s worth it. If you need encouragement to press through the hard times and keep leaning into a life on the frontlines of the advancing kingdom of God, this sermon is for you. And if you feel like your life is a mess, you’ll be reminded that Jesus stepped into the mess to rescue and redeem.Support the showThanks for listening!
