The Gospel Trail

“What’s in Your Hands Is Enough - Jesus Feeds the 5000”

Church, John chapter 6 opens with a hungry crowd and a distant hillside. Jesus has crossed the Sea of Galilee, and thousands follow Him. Not because the program was polished. Not because there was food waiting. They followed because something in them knew life was found where Jesus was.

The Bible says Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples. He lifted His eyes and saw a great multitude coming toward Him. Before they spoke a word, He saw them. Before they asked for bread, He knew they were hungry.

Mark Chapter 5 : 21-43 Jesus Heals in Response to Faith 😂

Church, I want you to see something today that is easy to miss if you read this passage too quickly. These are not just miracle stories. These are revelations of the heart of God.

Jesus steps out of the boat, and immediately the crowd gathers. They always do. Wherever Jesus is, need shows up. Broken bodies. Broken families. Broken hope. Jesus Heals them all!

#TheGospelTrail #JesusHeals #LamentforMinneapolis

I’m so glad you’re here. Church, whenever Jesus spoke about the Kingdom of Heaven, He didn’t give us long theological lectures. He gave us parables — living windows into spiritual reality. 

These stories reveal how God’s Kingdom actually works in a world that often feels completely upside down. And if we’re honest, every generation asks the same hard questions.

Questions that rise up when we look at the chaos around us, the struggles in the church, and even the battles in our own hearts. 

#TheGospelTrail

Church, there are some prisons built with iron bars… and there are some prisons built inside the human heart.

Jesus speaks in this passage about conflict, forgiveness, correction, repentance, mercy, and judgment. And if we are honest, every one of us has walked into this room carrying scars from people who wounded us.

Some wounds are small. Some wounds changed the direction of our lives.

And yet Jesus gives His disciples a challenge: not merely to receive forgiveness from God…   but to become people who forgive others.

Because forgiven people are supposed to become forgiving people.

Tonight I want to preach a message called:

“The Prison We Build”

I. Jesus Challenges Us to Pursue Restoration

II. Peter Wants a Number — Jesus Gives a Lifestyle

III. The Servant Who Forgot Mercy

IV. Unforgiveness Becomes Torment

Matthew 18:15–35

#TheGospeTrail #Forgiveness

Welcome to The Gospel Trail. In today’s episode, ‘Do Not Harbor That Hurt,’ we’re stepping into one of Jesus’ most practical and challenging teachings in Matthew 18:15–35. In this passage, Jesus directly addresses conflict, forgiveness, correction, repentance, mercy, and judgment. And if we’re honest, every one of us has walked into this room carrying scars from people who wounded us. Let’s open God’s Word together and see what Jesus has to say about the hurts we’ve received… and the ones we’ve caused.

Beloved, today we stand at the shore with Peter, in John 21. The beauty of this passage is that Jesus did not only forgive Peter privately—He restored him publicly, purposefully, and lovingly. Peter had failed at a charcoal fire, but by that same fire, Jesus brought him back—not to condemn, but to heal. You see, Jesus often brings us back to the place of our greatest failure—not to shame us, but to redeem us.

Rivers In The Wilderness spoken at New Life Lutheran on Pentecost Sunday

Part 1 - Book of Numbers 11:24–30

Part 2 - Acts of the Apostles 2:1–21

Part 3 - Gospel of John 7:37–39

Part 4 - Second Epistle to Timothy 3:16

Church, there are moments in Scripture where heaven seems to lean down close to earth. Moments where God says, “I will not leave My people dry, empty, powerless, or wandering.”

Today’s readings are tied together by one great promise:

God desires to pour out His Spirit upon His people.

“I See the Broken Church, I See the People Wandering” is a heartfelt response to a message Pastors Kevin received from the Lord. In this powerful podcast, listeners are called to hear the voice of God speaking to His Church—His bride, His beloved. With a prophetic and revival-centered message, Pastors Kevin and Sandy invite believers to listen not only with their ears, but with their spirit, as the Lord calls His people back to truth, repentance, healing, and renewal. #TheGospelTrail #apleaforprayer #lamentprayer at pgn.church

Christians should have no fear of what is coming or happening around us, for Scripture assures us that the chaos and darkness of this age are not the final word. There is coming a day when it will be all over, when the night that seems so long will give way to unending dawn. As Paul wrote, “The night is nearly over. The day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light” (Romans 13:12). The Day of the Lord is not a rumor or a story we tell children; it is the certain moment when everything false collapses under the weight of truth, every shadow flees before the light, and every tear is wiped away by the hand of the One who has already overcome the world. In that hope we stand secure, armored in light, unafraid because our King is coming soon. #TheGospelTrail "Rise and Have No Fear Continued" #nowplaying at pgn.church

It is time — past time — to bring backthe corporate, deep lament prayer that marked every true awakening. Not polite 5-minute prayers. Not solo intercession. I speak of the unified groaning that shook the early Church (Acts 4:31) — weeping, travailing, refusing to let go until heaven opens.🔥

Church leaders, gather your flocks. Cancel the calendar. Call solemn assemblies. Let the elders cry “Spare Your people, O Lord!” Let tears flow. Let the sound of unified groaning rise like incense until the fire falls again. ❤️‍🔥

In the mighty name of Jesus,

Some of you know ABOUT Him… but you haven’t seen Him.

Some of you confessed Him… but resist His cross.

Some of you need the mountain experience — a fresh vision of His glory.

🔥Tonight the Father is still revealing His Son.

🔥Tonight Jesus is still asking the question.

🔥Tonight the Spirit is still opening eyes.

Don’t answer with theology.  

Answer with surrender.

Come see Him as Peter saw Him — 

Revealed… Crucified… Glorified.

The Gospel Trail is before you—will you take the first step?

"He is a God of many dimensions, while we see in only one. Our flat minds trace His edges, but never His fullness. So He speaks beyond our sight— Spirit to spirit— and only the Spirit teaches us how to hear Him." #TheGospelTrail at pgn.church

Part II of The Most Important Question Ever Asked

History has recorded the rise and fall of empires...

Scientists have probed the universe…

But no question has ever shaken earth and eternity like the one Jesus asked in Caesarea Philippi.---

Our mission as ministers is to engage in deep, meaningful growth through biblical discipleship that equips and empowers believers for impactful Christian living. Faith comes from hearing, that is, hearing the Good News about Christ Romans 10:17#Disciple #⁠Christianpodcast⁠ #⁠churchgrowth ⁠#⁠Jesusteachings⁠ #⁠worship #FaithRevival #GodsMovement #ChristianRevolution #DivineAwakening #PureGospelNetwork #TheGospelTrail Website: is pgn.church⁠

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ! As followers of the risen Savior, we are not called to keep the light of the Gospel hidden within the comfort of our church walls. Jesus Himself commissioned us: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). The Great Commission is not a suggestion—it’s our marching orders! The world outside these four walls is full of people longing for hope, truth, and the transforming power of the Good News. Now is the time for our church to rise up, step out in faith, and carry the message of salvation to those who need it most.

One beautiful way we can do this together is by reaching those who are often overlooked: our shut-ins, those unable to attend our gatherings due to health, mobility, distance, or other circumstances. These precious souls are part of the body of Christ, and they deserve to hear and experience the life-giving Word just as much as anyone.

We have an exciting opportunity to extend the ministry of our church right into their homes. Please help us spread the Good News by sharing our new video series with someone you know who fits this description—a friend, family member, neighbor, or loved one who can’t join us in person but whose heart is open to God’s truth.

Our weekly Bible study series, The Gospel Trail, is designed to walk through the transformative message of the Gospel in a fresh, engaging way—exploring the path Jesus walked, the truths He taught, and the hope He offers to all. The very first episode of a new series will be released and published next Thursday!

Imagine the joy of someone isolated or far away discovering (or rediscovering) the wonders of God’s grace through these teachings. Your simple act of sharing could be the spark that reignites their faith, draws them closer to Jesus, and even connects them to our ongoing weekly Bible Study community.

Would you prayerfully consider these steps today?

1. Think of one (or more) people in your life who might be encouraged, comforted, or challenged by this series.

2. Share the video link with them personally—perhaps through a text, email, phone call, or social media message—with a warm note from your heart.

3. Pray earnestly that the Holy Spirit would soften their hearts, incline them toward the truth, and lead them to join us as we journey together on The Gospel Trail.

Let us be a church that refuses to stay comfortable inside our buildings. Let us be a people who passionately proclaim the Good News beyond our doors—starting with those closest to us who are waiting to hear it. The Great Commission can start with a Text: Share The Gospel Trail today.

May the Lord multiply our efforts as we obey His call. To Him be the glory!

In His service and love,

Rev. Kevin Raihala

Pray. Pray. Pray.

Church, hear me with an open heart.

We are standing at the edge of new days. One season is closing behind us, and another is stepping toward us. Some of you feel anticipation. Some feel hope. Some feel unease you can’t quite put into words. That’s not accidental. That’s discernment stirring.

And in the midst of it all, the Spirit of the Lord is speaking. Not with confusion. Not with complexity. But with clarity.

God says: Pray. Pray. Pray.

Church, if there has ever been a timewhen we needed to re-center our lives on Christ, it is now. The world is loud… distractions are many… and our hearts can drift without us even noticing. The believers in Colossae faced the same challenge. False teachings, cultural pressure, and spiritual confusion surrounded them.

How Does This Fit into the Debate? Are YOU saved? Will I see you in Heaven?

1. What shows that someone has been born anew?

A transformed relationship with God. The Bible describes new birth as something that changes desires, behavior, and direction. This inner change is the evidence, not the outward step.

2. Does the altar call save anyone?

No. The altar call is not the source of salvation. Christ is. Faith is the channel. An altar call is simply a setting where someone acknowledges what Christ is doing in them.

3. How does this address the Lutheran concern about grace?

It shows that the altar call is not a work. The act does not produce salvation. Grace produces salvation. The altar call just reveals someone’s response to grace already moving inside them.

4. Where does this align with the teachings of Jesus?

Jesus often called people publicly, but the call was not the saving event. The saving event was meeting Him, trusting Him, and following Him. The outward step simply made that inner faith visible.

5. Why is this important for the debate?

It separates symbol from substance.

– Substance: Christ saves by grace through faith.

– Symbol: A person steps forward to confess or acknowledge what Christ is doing.

That distinction removes the charge of “works” and keeps the focus where it belongs: on grace, faith, and the living relationship that follows.

Are YOU born anew?

When someone is “born anew,” the true evidence is a living relationship with God, not the physical act of responding to an altar call. New birth produces a change in desire, direction, and behavior that shows Christ’s grace at work in the heart. “An altar call may introduce a person to the message of Christ, but it does not save them. It simply points them to the person of Christ, and He is the one who saves.” Salvation comes through grace received by faith, and the outward step simply reveals what is already happening inwardly. This removes the idea that an altar call is a work that competes with grace. It keeps the focus on Christ as the source of salvation and on the transformed life that follows as the sign of genuine new birth.

Welcome toThe Gospel Trail, where we cut through the noise and hold tight to what truly matters."The Most Important Information starts off In Colossians 2:4-5, Paul says he is warning the church so no one can deceive them with smooth talk or clever arguments. Even though he is far away, his heart is with them, and he celebrates their steady faith in Christ.

That is the spirit of this podcast. We stay alert. We stay grounded. We stay focused on truth. If your faith feels tested or the world around you pulls you in every direction, this space is here to remind you of what is solid. What is real. What lasts.

On Tuesday, we talked about standing firm on the Word of God in a culture that’s drifting fast from truth — that man cannot remove Christ from the universe, but he can remove himself from Christ.

Today we continue that conversation with Jesus’ question from Matthew 13:51,“Have you understood all these things?”

Welcome to The Dragnet: The Final Separation. Jesus tells of fishermen casting a net and separating the good fish from the bad—just as the angels will separate the righteous from the wicked at the end of the age (Matthew 13:47-50).

The Gospel Trail is before you—will you take the first step? This is Pastor Kevin, bringing you the Word of God.

Welcome to this soul-stirring episode of The Gospel Trail, where Pastor Sandy and Rev. Kev unearth the raw power of Jesus' parables in Matthew 13:44-46: "The Story of Two Men—The Parables of Hidden Treasure and the Pearl: The Value of the Kingdom." Journey with us as we unpack how one man's joyful stumble upon buried gold and another's relentless hunt for the ultimate gem both lead to a radical surrender: selling everything for the incomparable worth of God's Kingdom. But this isn't just ancient wisdom it's a mirror to your heart. Do the distractions of daily life eclipse the eternal joy of knowing Christ?

Are you ready to trade false treasures for the one that satisfies forever? Pastor Sandy and Rev. Kev challenge you to recognize the Kingdom's supreme value, count the cost of true discipleship, and boldly pursue Jesus above all else. Tune in to The Gospel Trail now—let these parables ignite a fire in your faith, and step onto the trail where surrender becomes your greatest gain.

A Story of Two Men." Join us on The Gospel Trail as we dive into these parables of hidden gold and priceless gems, where one man's joyful surrender and another's lifelong quest reveal the Kingdom of God as the ultimate prize—demanding everything, yet delivering joy unspeakable, eternal life, and peace that outshines the world's empty trinkets. What if tonight, you traded your burdens for boundless treasure? Rev. Kev presses this eternal question: Is Jesus worth it all? From the thrill of unexpected discovery to the sting of true cost, this episode isn't just a message—it's a revival call to seekers, sinners, and saints alike.

Don't clutch imitation pearls when the real Pearl of Great Price is calling. Tune in now, surrender your heart, and gain everything in Christ. Seek first the Kingdom... and watch all else fall into place. Listen today on Spotify, YouTube or Rumble—the treasure awaits.

In the parable of leaven, we learned several things about the working of the Kingdom in our present age. Each of these lessons stems from the nature of yeast. Jesus already built the church so we are charged with building our faith and others. The plan is that The Kingdom of Heaven is a spiritual existence within the hearts of the believers.

Our verse today is Matthew 13:33 He told them another parable. “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened.”

We’ve been trained—religiously trained—to think like consumers. Sermons packaged like content. Preachers treated like performers. Platforms built like brands.

But the Bible is clear: preaching is not entertainment. It’s not a popularity contest. It’s not a stage for ego. Preaching is the lifeline of faith.

Listen to the Apostle Paul in Romans 10:
“How can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? … As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

And Jesus Himself tells us what this looks like. In the parables of the mustard seed and the leaven, He reminds us: the Kingdom begins small—almost invisible—but grows unstoppable. A tiny seed becomes a sheltering tree.

So don’t mistake small beginnings for insignificance. Even the smallest act of faith can shift eternity.

This is not about hype. This is not about the crowd. This is about the Kingdom.

This week on Tuesday Edition, Rev. Kev tackles a listener’s question: “What is revival?” The answer doesn’t come from trends or traditions but straight from the Word of God. The prophet Amos thunders against empty religion and calls for a flood of justice and righteousness that cannot be stopped. In this episode, you’ll hear why revival is not about filling seats, polishing services, or putting on a show — it’s about hearts bowed in repentance and lives transformed by the power of God. When His Spirit moves, chains break, strongholds fall, and dead things come to life. Join us as we cry out together: Let justice roll like a river! Let righteousness flow like a never-failing stream!

🎙️Welcome to today’s episode, Jesus Teaches Disciples The Reality of Judgement🎧

In Matthew 13, Jesus tells the parable of the wheat and the tares. A farmer plants good seed, but an enemy scatters weeds among it. The servants want to pull the weeds up, but the master says, “Let both grow together until the harvest.” At harvest time, the separation happens: the wheat is gathered into the barn, and the tares are burned.

This is not just a story—it’s prophecy. Jesus was preparing His disciples to understand the final judgment. The righteous and the wicked grow together now, but the harvest is coming.

That’s why He told them in Matthew 13:16–17: “Blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. For truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see and did not see it, and to hear what you hear and did not hear it.” They were seeing God’s plan unfold in real time, a plan the prophets could only anticipate.

And Revelation gives us the full picture of that harvest. In Revelation 14, John sees “one like a son of man” with a sharp sickle in His hand. The earth is reaped. The faithful are gathered to the Lord like wheat brought into the barn. But then another angel swings his sickle, and the grapes of the earth—representing the wicked—are thrown into the great winepress of the wrath of God. It’s the same truth Jesus taught in parable form: there will be a day when God separates forever, the righteous to eternal life and the wicked to judgment.

The parable of the wheat and the tares, and the vision in Revelation, stand together as one message: God’s patience allows both to grow for now, but His justice will not delay forever. The harvest is coming.

Today, we’ll walk through how Jesus opened His disciples’ eyes to this reality, how it connects to Revelation’s vision of the end, and what it means for us right now.

Welcome back to The Gospel Trail. Today, we’re sharing one of our most-searched-for messages—a word straight from the heart of Scripture.

When Jesus walked with His disciples, He didn’t hand them a blueprint for building a church. He gave them Himself. Acts 2:47 says, “And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.” It wasn’t Peter, James, or John making the numbers grow—it was the Lord.

That’s still true today. He’s already given you everything you need. Our role isn’t to chase strategies; it’s to walk with Him. Jesus said in John 15:5, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”

That longing you feel in your spirit—that pull to go deeper—that’s what God delights in. Psalm 27:8 says, “My heart says of you, ‘Seek his face!’ Your face, Lord, I will seek.” That’s how His church grows: not through our plans, but through His presence.

So lean in with us today, and let’s listen again to this timeless message.

Jesus Teaches Disciples - Revealing the Mysteries of the Kingdom

As we continue along The Gospel Trail, we come to a unique aspect of Jesus' ministry—His use of parables to teach His disciples. Jesus often used these simple yet profound stories to reveal deep spiritual truths. The parables in Matthew 13 are not just stories for entertainment—they are revelations of the Kingdom of God. Jesus knew that those with open hearts would understand, while those with hardened hearts would remain blind to the truth.

Scripture: Matthew 13: 1–52

Jesus and Religious Leaders - A Clash of Tradition and Truth As we continue Following The Savior's Footsteps on TheGospel Trail, we now find ourselves at a point where Jesus confronts the religious leaders of His day—the Pharisees. These were men who knew the law, who practiced strict religious traditions, and who believed they were the gatekeepers of righteousness. Yet, in their zeal for religious rules, they missed the heart of God’s message and rejected the very Messiah they had been waiting for.

The Pharisees still exist today—those who put religious traditions and self-righteousness above the heart of the gospel. Perhaps you’ve encountered them. Perhaps, like Jesus, you’ve faced their judgment and criticism. This passage reveals that Jesus didn’t shy away from confronting hypocrisy, and neither should we.

In Matthew 12, Jesus shows us that true righteousness isn’t about outward performance—it’s about the condition of the heart. He offers us freedom from the bondage of legalism and calls us to a life centered on His truth, not empty tradition.

“From the first breath in Eden to the final ‘Amen’ in Revelation, one voice has never stopped calling...”

“Follow Me.”

Welcome, friends — I’m Pastor Kevin, and this is The Gospel Trail, where we journey through God’s Word with open hearts and listening ears.

This morning, I woke up stirred by the Spirit, and I wrote this down: “The Invitation of ‘Follow Me’ — from Genesis to Revelation.” It’s not just a theme. It’s the heartbeat of Scripture. It’s God Himself reaching toward us, again and again, offering something no world, no system, no striving can ever provide:

The water of life.

In Revelation 22:17, we read:

"The Spirit and the bride say, 'Come!' And let the one who hears say, 'Come!' Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.”

From Genesis to Revelation, God’s message has never changed — and today, He’s still inviting you.

So wherever you are… walking strong, wandering far, or weary and thirsty… this episode is for you.

Let’s take that journey. Let’s answer the call.

Let’s walk the Gospel Trail.

#TheGospelTrail #TheInvitation #FollowMe

In Matthew 9, we witness the raw compassion and undeniable power of Jesus Christ. A paralyzed man is lowered through a roof… and Jesus not only heals his body, He forgives his sins. Religious minds were stunned—but heaven rejoiced.

Then, in just two words, Jesus rewrites a man’s entire future:
“Follow Me.”
That call still echoes today.

Friend, when Jesus speaks, it’s not just words—it’s life. A whole book gets written in your soul. But it requires something from you: action. obedience. surrender.

Join Rev Kev and Pastor Sandy as we follow the footsteps of Jesus—the One who heals needs and calls sinners to walk the Gospel Trail.

#JesusHeals #TheGospelTrail #Matthew9

Rev Kev and Pastor Sandy are back on The Gospel Trail, diving into the powerful close of Matthew Chapter 8.

This episode isn’t just a Bible study—it’s a wake-up call. We’re talking about a paralyzed man, a herd of swine, and demon-oppressed people—all in one dramatic, life-altering day.

But here’s the real question: Are we inoculated or cured?

Join us as we unpack the compassion and power of Christ, and what it means for your walk today.

The Gospel Trail: Healing and Authority in Matthew 8–9

In this episode of The Gospel Trail, we pause at a defining moment in Jesus’ ministry—His healing of the sick, the oppressed, and the outcast. Walking through Matthew chapters 8 and 9, we witness raw encounters between human need and divine power. Each person who comes to Jesus in faith leaves changed.

Pastor Sandy, a graduate of the John G. Lake School of Ministry, unpacks what these miracles mean today and how they reflect Christ’s enduring authority to heal. We’ll also look at the global rise of Christianity—marked by baptisms, conversions, and a renewed hunger among young adults for churches grounded in Scripture and spiritual power.

This is more than history. It’s a call to faith, healing, and truth.

Dear brothers and sisters,

Today, we stand in awe of the One who opened His mouth at the Sermon on The Mount —Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the King of Kings, the Almighty in human flesh. When we read, “He opened His mouth and taught them,” we must pause and marvel at who this “He” truly is. This is no ordinary teacher. This is no mere man. This is God Himself, robed in humanity, wielding infinite power, yet choosing to walk among us in humility, love, and sacrifice.

Text: Matthew 5:2 – “Then He opened His mouth and taught them…”

Welcome to our latest podcast episode, diving into the Sermon on the Mount with a focus on Matthew 7:21-27 — The Wise and Foolish Builders. Pastor Sandy recounts a powerful encounter with the Holy Spirit while preaching the Gospel, emphasizing Jesus’ call to obedience. Discover how we can partner with Christ to build His church by faithfully living out His Word as a true Disciple.

Matthew 7:21-27 NKJV “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

Do Not Worry: A Call to Trust Matthew 6:25-34 Picture this: Jesus is sitting on that hillside, surrounded by people just like us—folks wondering how they’ll feed their families, how they’ll make it through the week. And He says, “Look at the birds of the air. They don’t sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?” Oh, church, hear that—you are valuable to God. He’s not a distant king who doesn’t see you. He’s your Father, and He knows every single thing you need before you even whisper it in prayer.

From the Beatitudes: Radical Righteousness a Call to The Heart causes the Christian to reflect. Here’s the thing: Jesus isn’t just raising the bar and leaving us to jump higher. He’s not a taskmaster cracking a whip. He’s the one who fulfills the Law—living it out perfectly. Think about it: He never harbored anger, even when betrayed. He never let lust twist His gaze, even in a world full of temptation. And enemies? He prayed for them from the cross—“Father, forgive them.” Jesus doesn’t just demand radical righteousness; He embodies it. And He invites us to walk with Him, to let His life shape ours.

Lets pray together "Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life." Psalms 139:23-24 NLT

You are Salt & Light a Call to Influence. Beloved, today I want to remind you of your divine purpose and calling in Christ Jesus. Right after the Beatitudes, Jesus looks at His followers and gives them a bold and undeniable identity:

“You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:13-14)

These words are not suggestions or possibilities; they are declarations of who we are in Him. When Jesus speaks, His words carry life and authority. And today, He is speaking to you and me, calling us to be His representatives in this world.

Church growth isn’t our job—it’s His. The Bible didn’t say the disciples added to the church; it said the Lord did, daily. He has given you everything you need. 

Our job is to be with Him. Your heart’s aching for it—that whisper in your spirit, that longing for more. That’s what pleases God. And that’s how His church grows—not by our plans, but by His presence.

"Living by The Kingdom's Constitution" Today, we continue our walk with Jesus on The Gospel Trail—a path that stretches from Genesis to the Cross and beyond. Some say we don’t touch on the Old Testament enough, but let me tell you, the entire Bible is about The Gospel! Isaiah foretold the crucifixion, the very moment when hope—hidden since the beginning of time—was revealed Matthew 5:4-6

Pastors Kevin and Sandy invite us to walk with Jesus to hear his Sermon on the Mount which is one of the most well-known and revolutionary teachings of Jesus. In it, He sets forth a vision of life in the kingdom of God—a life that turns worldly values upside down. Jesus doesn’t just give rules to follow; He reveals the heart of God and calls us to a higher standard of living, one that is rooted in love, humility, and righteousness.

In their reflection on the Beatitudes, Pastors Kevin and Sandy challenge us to consider whether we are living intentionally or simply going through the motions—are we on autopilot? The Beatitudes invite us to pursue a life that reflects the heart of Jesus, calling us to humility, purity, and mercy. We must ask ourselves: Are we striving for these qualities, or are we distracted by the fleeting desires of this world? True blessing, as Jesus teaches, doesn’t come from what we possess but from who we are in Christ. It's a reminder that our worth and fulfillment come from embracing His kingdom way of life. Will we choose to live according to these values, or continue chasing after things that don't last?

The Doctrine of Living Gospel Salvation The Call to New Life 2 of 3 by Rev. Kevin Räihälä As we've explored in previous podcasts, we've encountered individuals who had genuine meetings with Jesus, each hearing the imperative, "You must be born again." By examining their interactions with Christ Jesus, we witness the pivotal moment when the Living Gospel transformed their lives forever.

Consider Peter, who, in repentance, knelt in his boat before the Lord, later penning, "All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead." Thus the Doctrine of Living Gospel Salvation

The Call to New Life Part 1 of 3 ~ Woman are important in the Kingdom of God. This was a powerful encounter that Jesus had during His earthly ministry—with a Samaritan woman at a well. These encounters show us that Jesus reaches beyond social, cultural, and religious barriers to offer something far greater than anyone could imagine: new life through Him.

In John 3 and 4, we see two very different people come face to face with the same Jesus. Nicodemus, a respected teacher of the law, and the Samaritan woman, a social outcast, represent two extremes. Yet Jesus approaches both with the same message: “You must be born again.”

As we reflect on these passages, I want to challenge you to see yourself in these encounters. Are you like Nicodemus, well-versed in religion but still missing the heart of the Gospel? Or are you like the Samaritan woman, longing for something real amidst the brokenness of your life? Either way, Jesus is calling you to new life today. The Gospel Trail is before you—will you take the first step?

This is a significant turning point not only in the life of Jesus but for the entire world.

In times of trouble, when we feel overwhelmed and lost, we have a direct line to the Creator of the universe.

Join us as Pastor Sandy, Rev. Kev and Brother Don share from the first letter of John, Worship with Liz and musicians and guests. Together we beautifully describes the firsthand experience of encountering Jesus Christ. Here is a rephrased version of this powerful testimony:

"We have seen him with our very own eyes, gazed upon him, and heard him speak. Our hands touched the Living Expression of God, the one who existed from the beginning. The Life-Giver, made visible to us, lived face-to-face with the Father, and now has dawned upon us. We testify to this truth, so that we may share and enjoy this life together. Our fellowship is truly with the Father and with his Son, Jesus, the Anointed One. We write these things to you because we want to share our fullness of joy with you."

This passage captures the essence of the disciples' profound experience with Jesus and their earnest desire to share the joy and life they found in Him with others. It reminds us of the intimate relationship we can have with God through Jesus Christ and the abundant life He offers to all who believe in Him. #Prayerline 218.461.0164

"Care Deeply" by Brother Don - A look at the church today. This message arrives at a pivotal moment for "The Church," a time when its vitality is more crucial than ever. As our congregations age and the younger generation drifts away from traditional religious upbringing, it's imperative that we reflect on our journey and reconnect with the essence of our faith.

At its core, "care" embodies the provision of essential elements for the well-being, sustenance, and safeguarding of individuals or entities. In the context of the church, it encompasses nurturing the spiritual health of both the congregation and the institution itself.

Join us in this profound exploration as we delve into the depths of our faith and commit to caring deeply for our church and its members. Together, let's cultivate a culture of prayer, support, and genuine concern for one another's spiritual well-being.

Let's embark on a journey of introspection, comparing our current state with the fervor and commitment we experienced when we first encountered the transformative power of Jesus. By doing so, we can realign our priorities, rediscover our purpose, and reignite our passion for spreading His message of love and compassion. #Prayerline 218.461.0164

A Psalm of Praise

Praise the LORD!

Praise God in His sanctuary;

Praise Him in His mighty heavens.

Praise Him for His mighty acts;

Praise Him according to [the abundance of] His greatness.

Praise Him with trumpet sound;

Praise Him with harp and lyre.

Praise Him with tambourine and dancing;

Praise Him with stringed instruments and flute.

Praise Him with resounding cymbals;

Praise Him with loud cymbals.

Let everything that has breath and every breath of life praise the LORD!

Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!)

Psalm 150 AMP

Peter writes from experience. He got chewed up by Lucifer the Lion when impulsiveness overruled sound judgement, and he denied the Lord three times. Nothing like getting clawed by the enemy to sober up. -Paul Anderson

Hope Anchored in Jesus. There are two kinds of hope. Hope in mankind or Hope in Jesus. Jesus has conquered sin and death and made a way to eternity for you.

Jesus said He is sending one like Me to set you free. That one is the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit to teach you how to Live, Move and Be in the Kingdom of God. The Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26 KJV

Just like the parodical son story in the bible. I too needed help and got it when I said yes and put my trust in Jesus now my Lord. Open your bibles to Luke 15:11-32 as your Hosts discuss what Jesus has done and is doing. There is a short message at the end by Harmony Smith describing true worship.

Hope is not what we see but what the scripture reveals. The two from Emmaus told their story of how Jesus had appeared to them as they were walking along the road, and how they had recognized him as he was breaking the bread.
