The Lost Son(s)
We are back at it this week discussing the most recent sermon brought by our church network mission strategist, Marty Childers. Marty preached from Luke 15:11-32 about the story of the lost son.....and his lost brother. This is a story that clearly proclaims the gospel and how good our God is to pursue a relationship with those who do not deserve Him. Many people can ask themselves which son they are most like, but the best question is how can we be more like the Father?! Jeff and Blake have tons of fun going through this story and hope that you enjoy our reflections on the sermon.

Calling Down Fire?
On this episode, Jeff and Blake discuss from Luke 9 where the disciples ask to call down fire on the Samarians. There are times in life where we wish that God would just call down fire on our enemies and people we do not like; however, the guys show why that is by far not the best course of action. We give practical advice for the believer to see how to manage non-ideal situations and people in a way that honors God.

Happy Mother's Day! On this week's podcast, the pastors talk about the Mother's day sermon brought by Jeff. He and Blake discuss 1 Thessalonians 2:7-8. In this passage, Paul described himself as one who had been like a nurturing mother to the church he planted and wrote about his love for them, along with how he shared his gospel and life with them. The guys continue to talk about how a mother has a crucial role to play in the spiritual formation of those around her. In addition, the discussion goes into practical ways that believers can nurture people while fulfilling the great commission.

Dealing with Difficult People
Jeff and Blake are back at this week on a Wednesday to talk about dealing with difficult people. The sermon is based on 2 Timothy 2:24-26 where Paul encouraged Timothy in his last letter to him that a servant of the Lord must be able to deal with difficult people. The pastors encourage their folks to do the same as it is a given we will all encounter difficult people; how we handle them is where there should be a difference from the rest of the world! Listen to hear more about being a good witness for Christ Jesus and how you can deal with difficult people.

What Pentecost Means to Us?
Blake and Jeff are back at it this week talking about the recent sermon entitled "What Pentecost Means to Us? Jeff preached on a great passage from Acts 2.

Jeff and Blake discuss the background of Pentecost, the person of the Holy Spirit, and how he fuels the Mission of God.

The gospel is clearly stated and the pastors leave encouragement to the believer who is finding it tough to stay on the path of righteousness. They also encourage those who may not yet follow Christ to look at Jesus in faith and live!

A Message to All Nations - 10-10-2022
On this episode of the Monday Main Point Jeremiah, Jeff, Blake, and Katrina discuss the Sunday sermon which was titled, "A Message to All Nations," from Luke 24:44-49. The main thrust of the sermon by Jeff McCarthy was on Luke's version of the Great Commission which is more famously found in Matthew 28:18-20. Luke also has a version of the Great Commission found in Acts 1:8. Some of the questions and topics of discussion for this week are: Where do we find the Great Commission in the Old Testament? The importance of Luke 24:47 as a framework for the Church. Did God's plan of salvation always include "the nations?" What is the Spirit's work in evangelism? Practical application for having Gospel conversations. And, How can ROS exist for another 143 years?

Be On Your Best Behavior - 10-3-2022
On this episode of Monday Main Point Jonathan, Jeremiah, Blake, and Jeff talk about the Homecoming message brought by Nick Decker. Nick took his text from Ephesians 4.25-32, and offered 4 guidelines for believers to follow in order to have a witness that lasts. The pastors discuss how focusing on the grace of Christ can enable believers to live a life which reflects the gospel. Why do we not practice confessing sin to God and to one another? How can our unchecked anger harm our relationships with one another and with God? And why do a large percentage of both Gen Z and Millennials believer Christians are hypocrites?

Denying Yourself - 9-21-2022
On this episode of the Main Point Jonathan, Jeff, Blake, and our Minister of Congregational Care, Katrina Redman discuss Sunday's sermon on denying yourself. The text was from Luke 9.23-24, and the group talk about what Jesus meant with this "hard teaching." What does it mean to deny ourselves and is it a spiritual gift or a discipline? Is North-American Christianity compatible with the idea of self-denial, and if so, what does that look like? How can the idea of "actively dying" in our physical lives inform our understanding of what it means to die daily to self?

Joining Jesus on Mission - 8-24-2022
On this episode of the Main Point Jonathan, Jeremiah, Blake, and Jeff talk about what it means to join Jesus on mission as they discuss the story of Zacchaeus in Luke 19.1-10. The pastors converse about whether our evangelism should be "seeker-sensitive," the hiddenness/accessibility of God in regards to those who are seeking, how far should we go in trying to reach our unreached friends/family, and is there any advantage in trying to minister to people in more "worldly" settings?

The Baptism of Jesus - 8-15-2022
On this episode of the Monday Main Point Jeremiah, Jeff, and Blake had the privilege of discussing the exciting topic of baptism. The sermon from Sunday 8/14/22 was on Jesus' example and pattern for baptism which He gave to us in Matthew 3: 13-17. We had the privilege of being a part of a service where we witnessed 7 baptisms. So, the discussion began talking about all of that excitement, as well as discussing some of our pre-baptism process at ROS. We wanted to highlight how God is working in our midst, and how we have been blessed to see some of that work throughout the last few months. We then moved to a discussion of the sermon and how Jesus sets the example for us. Some of the specific questions we discuss are: What does it mean to be baptized by the Spirit? Does baptism save us? What is believers baptism? What is baptismal regeneration? How was the Trinity involved at Jesus' baptism? How does baptism proclaim the Gospel? What is the intended mode of baptism in the Bible? and How is baptism tied to church membership is SBC life?

Fulfill Your Ministry - 8-1-2022
On this episode of Monday Main Point Jonathan, Jeremiah, Blake, and Jeff are back together after a week of technical difficulties. They discuss a few points of interest from the sermon on July 24th from Nehemiah 8 as well as the July 31st sermon titled "Fulfill Your Ministry." Attempting to answer the question as to why the Israelites may have missed the Day of Atonement after they first returned from exile, they talk about the significance of the temple and how it points toward Jesus, whether or not the ark of the covenant was present after the Israelites' exile, and how we can be sure we don't miss the point in our own Bible studies. They then switch gears and discuss whether every Christian has a ministry, the difference between a ministry and a calling, and the role of the church in supporting and encouraging these ministries and callings.

The Burden of Violence - 7-18-2022
On this episode of Monday Main Point Jonathan, Jeremiah, and Jeff are together to discuss Jeff's sermon from Habakkuk entitled, "The Burden of Violence." They talk about how a proper view of God and a proper view of man can help us better address the issue of why evil and violence is so prevalent in our world today, and what our response should be as Christians. Does the great amount of evil in the world mean that God doesn't care or isn't in control? What is our response when we feel God isn't hearing our prayers? And should we turn to government to fix the mess we see around us?

In this episode of the Main Point, Jonathan, Jeremiah, Jeff, and Blake answer questions submitted about Sunday's sermon from Revelation 20.11-21-8, entitled, "The End of the End." The message focused on what happens at the very end of the end times -- the Great White Throne judgment and the judgment seat of Christ -- and how our "goodness" neither guarantees Heaven nor helps us avoid Hell. The pastors answer whether or not near death experiences or personal testimonies of Heaven and Hell should be consulted as sources of knowledge, and they answer a question posed about whether there is evidence for the view that Christians will not be present at the Great White Throne judgment.
