More Than Bread

It's not enough to get into God's Word, we need to let His Word get into us. "More Than Bread" is a podcast featuring Pastor Dan Nold from Calvary Church in State College, PA. It focuses on simply reading the Bible (with a few comments) in the hopes that listening to God's Word, learning from God's Word and leaning into God's Word will shape our hearts, minds, and souls to bring us life. As Jesus said, "We do not live by bread alone, we live by every Word that comes from the mouth of God."

    Christmas Prep #21 -- Luke 20 -- There's no Christmas without resurrection!

    Send me a Text Message!Here's the deal. Jesus was born to die. The manger led to the cross and the cross was the ultimate blow-out love-burst of God. But we never would've known that without the resurrection. Before the resurrection, from our perspective the cross was nothing more than abounding despair, unmerciful judgement and victorious evil. The resurrection changed the cross from a symbol of deep despair to a symbol of ultimate hope. An ultimate hope that is built upon a deep, deep love....

    Christmas Prep #20 -- Luke 19 -- A Palm Sunday moment on the way to Christmas!

    Send me a Text Message!Yes, that's right. I'm sorry. I know it's supposed to be a chapter a day. 24 chapters. 24 days from December 1 to Christmas Eve. But I just couldn't leave Luke 19. So now we are a chapter off and you'll have something to listen to on Christmas Day!I couldn't leave Luke 19 without pausing on Palm Sunday. It's a Palm Sunday moment on the way to preparing for Christmas. AND this Palm Sunday moment will give us some Christmas Prep questions as it gives us a glimpse of Jesus...

    Christmas Prep #19 -- Luke 19 -- Let's get covered in His love this Christmas!

    Send me a Text Message!After the last episode and its focus on someone who missed Christ, who you might say, missed Christmas, we can’t skip Zachaeus; the wee little man, his tree, and the celebration in his home. Zach is a guy who got it, a guy who didn’t miss Christ and you might even say, didn't miss the true meaning of Christ-mas! And through his story, we are going to ponder the love of God. Listen, the love of God, found in Jesus, poured out by the Spirit has this ability to change us; ...

    Christmas Prep #18 -- Luke 18 -- You only lack one thing?

    Send me a Text Message!In this episode we are going to hear Jesus say something quite interesting to a rich, young leader. This leader wants to follow Jesus and so he comes to Jesus to ask what he needs to do and Jesus says, "You only lack one thing." Now before you hear what he lacks, let me just say as we prep for Christmas, wouldn't it be great if that were really true? If this Christmas we only lacked one thing?But what if it's true? If you only lacked one thing; if there was one thing th...

    Christmas Prep #17 -- Luke 17 -- Where is Jesus this Christmas?

    Send me a Text Message!At the risk of sounding a bit too much like the creators of "elf on a shelf," in this episode we are going to ponder the question, "Where is Jesus this Christmas?" That's my question, "Where do we find Jesus this Christmas?" So in this episode we're going to look at three moments where people find Jesus. I'm not sure what's happening in your life or the life of someone you care about this Christmas, but I do know that sometimes it can seem like Jesus is hard to find, fa...

    Christmas Prep #16 -- Luke 16 -- Where are the eager multitudes of Christmas?

    Send me a Text Message!In Luke 16, with all that we could focus on, we will end up focusing on a part of one verse that says, "The Gospel of the Kingdom of God is being proclaimed and eager multitudes are trying to get in!" I think what Jesus was saying is that the Kingdom of God is a treasure worth my life and when somebody really "gets it," with everything in their hearts they want to be a part of this Kingdom. They are eager to get in. So my question is, "Are we eager to get in?" Shouldn't...

    Christmas Prep #15 -- Luke 15 -- A Christmas for Prodigals!

    Send me a Text Message!Luke 15 contains three "lost and found" stories. There's a lost sheep, a lost coin, and a lost son. And with each story Jesus is telling us something deep about the Father's heart and what heaven celebrates! And in a way, he is reminding us of the "why" of Christmas. Jesus left home, so that the prodigals could come home! Jesus was born to show us the Father's heart. When God sees you what He feels for you is prodigal love, reckless, extravagant, unrelenting l...

    Christmas Prep #14 -- Luke 14 -- No empty seats at His table!

    Send me a Text Message!In this episode I'm going to ask you, to ask yourself, two questions. First, do I live like I'm invited. Second, do I live like there's still room at His table?In Luke 14, Jesus describes a great banquet and you might say that Jesus is really talking about Christmas. In Jesus day, the idea of a banquet or a feast was often used as a metaphor for the coming of God's kingdom. The banquet was about the restoration of all things and the birth of a new community, a new...
