    Episode 21: So You Think You Need

    We think that we need so many things. Most of us come from cultures where we have been spoiled to think that we need so much, but how much do we truly need? What will bring us true fulfillment? Have we reached a point in our lives where desperation is the norm? On this week’s episode of the Celebration Christian Church Punta Cana podcast Pastor Jonathan Autrey unpacks the profound story from John chapter 5, verses 1 through 16. The narrative unfolds at the Pool of Bethesda, a place surrounded by broken individuals seeking resolution to their ailments. As we explore the biblical passage, we begin to understand more about the concept of brokenness, emphasizing that recognizing our broken state is the first step toward finding our Savior.  Drawing parallels to real-life struggles, we address the tendency to seek solutions in things that do not truly fulfill our needs. Whether it's dealing with depression, broken relationships, or other challenges,  we can see a relatable perspective on the human condition. So now it is time to reflect on and ask, “Where am I seeking solutions in times of need. Am I relying on material possessions for fulfillment?” In this world, human inclination finds solace in material things, even if they may not satisfy the deeper yearnings within. So here, the Pool of Bethesda becomes a symbol of the world's offerings and the competitive nature of modern-day pursuits, but in the end, all we truly need is to believe in Jesus who is the true source of fulfillment beyond material possessions.

    Episode 20: The Co-Mission Commission

    In this episode, Pastor Jonathan Autrey shares insightful reflections on the dynamics of successful ministry and the "secret sauce" that fuels it—consistent commitment. The central theme revolves around the "Co-Mission Commission," emphasizing the importance of the Great Commission in Christian ministry. Referencing Matthew 28:16-20, he encourages listeners to rekindle their passion for the Great Commission, which is not to just show up once a week, but to make disciples, and engage in various aspects of ministry. The discussion delves into the disciples' emotional journey post-Jesus' resurrection, highlighting the significance of worship and acknowledging the presence of doubt even among those closest to Jesus. Remember the words of Jesus: 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.’ Verses: Matthew 28:16-20 Mark 16:15 Luke 24:46-49 John 20-21 Acts 1:8 2 Timothy 2:2 If you like this message, please make sure you share it.

    Episode 17 - Salvation

    In this podcast episode. Pastor Jonathan Autrey has the tough talk on salvation. If today was your last day on Earth, and God were to call you home, are you sure that your soul is saved? The world will make you question God, but God is a sovereign God, an unquestionable God. The world will have you think that you are enough to justify and glorify your sin, however we can be sure that this is not the way.

    Episode 14 - Forgive Because You Have Been Forgiven

    In this podcast episode titled "Forgive Because You Have Been Forgiven," Pastor Jonathan Autrey explores the concept of forgiveness from a Christian perspective. The episode emphasizes the importance of self-forgiveness, explaining that individuals need forgiveness for themselves more than the other person needs it for them. We should reflect on our understanding of forgiveness. The 4 things that get in the way of our forgiving: 1. Pride 2. Bitterness 3. Self-righteous 4. Shame We all require forgiveness and should extend it to others in turn. There is a profound connection between personal forgiveness, God's grace and mercy, and the transformative power of comprehending and practicing forgiveness in our daily lives. Important verses: Matthew 6:12 - "And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." This verse is part of the Lord's Prayer, where Jesus teaches his disciples how to pray. In this particular line, Jesus instructs his followers to ask for forgiveness for their sins or debts, and to do so in the same manner that they have forgiven others who have wronged them. It suggests that believers should extend forgiveness to others who have wronged them, just as they seek forgiveness from God. Ephesians 1:7 - "In him [Jesus] we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace." This verse emphasizes the central Christian belief that through Jesus Christ, believers have redemption and forgiveness of sins. The phrase "in him" refers to Jesus, indicating that it is through him that believers receive these spiritual blessings. The verse specifically mentions "redemption through his blood," highlighting the sacrificial death of Jesus on the cross as the means by which believers are redeemed from the consequences of sin. It also emphasizes that the forgiveness of sins is in accordance with the riches of God's grace, underscoring that forgiveness is not something earned or deserved but rather a result of God's abundant and unmerited favor. Romans 3:10 - "As it is written: 'There is no one righteous, not even one.'" This verse is part of a larger passage in the book of Romans where the apostle Paul is discussing the universal sinfulness of humanity and the need for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. It emphasizes the idea that no one is truly righteous on their own, and all people are in need of God's grace and forgiveness. If you like this message, please make sure you share it.
