Depression and suicide. These are heavy topics, and historically the church has not always been helpful. Most mainline Protestant denominations have changed their position on these issues in conversation with modern medicine to provide compassionate and holistic support. In this message, we explore how these changes offer hope to people who suffer with depression or who have lost loved ones to suicide.If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.  Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL) Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds 

While we mostly pray to our Heavenly Father, maternal metaphors for God are not uncommon in the Bible. One striking example is Isaiah 66:13: "As a mother comforts her child, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem." In this message we look at how God comforts us with the love of a mother.If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.  Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL) Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds 

What happens when we die? In this message, Pastor Mark explains that the Bible does offer a simple answer to this question but several different images that open space for us wrestle with difficult questions. After acknowledging that people have different interpretations of the Bible regarding the afterlife, he reminds us of two things that all Christians believe that provide comfort, hope, and assurance in the face of death. If this message is a blessing, you can support our ministries by donating at www.fumccb.com.  Speaker: Pastor Mark Reynolds Venue: First United Methodist Church (Cocoa Beach, FL) Connect with Pastor Mark:www.revmarkreynolds.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PastorMarkReynolds
