    The Unexpected Guests: Finding Yourself in the Christmas Story

    In this episode, we dive into the conversations that shaped our latest message in the Christmas series. The Christmas story is full of unexpected characters—shepherds, wise men, and even names in Jesus’ genealogy that make you stop and ask, “What are they doing here?” We explore how God invites the insignificant and the outsiders into His story, revealing His character of grace, accessibility, and relentless love. From shepherds in the fields to magi from distant lands, this episode will challenge your perspective and remind you that you are central to God’s plan—no matter how unqualified or unseen you may feel. Join us as we reflect, connect, and discover the beauty of being part of God’s story.

    The Humble Arrival: Jesus’ Character in the Christmas Story

    In this episode, we explore the character of Jesus through the lens of the Christmas story. What does His birth narrative reveal about His humility, compassion, and faithfulness? Join us as we discuss the profound significance of Jesus being born in a “nobody’s” household and the accessibility of grace. Through personal stories, dialogue questions, and biblical context, we uncover how the Christmas story speaks to our struggles with being “good enough” and offers a transformative picture of God’s grace and connection. This is the first of three episodes leading up to Christmas, delving into the power of narrative and the gift of Immanuel—God with us.

    The King, the Villain, and the Awkward Parade

    What happens when a sleepless king, a delusional villain, and an unassuming hero collide? You get one of the most hilariously ironic moments in the Bible! In this episode, we explore the comedy, irony, and life lessons in Esther 5-6. From King Xerxes unknowingly putting Haman in charge of honoring his worst enemy, to Mordecai's epic ride through Susa (led by a very grumpy Haman), this story has all the makings of a divine sitcom. We also reflect on what this teaches us about pride, humility, and those unexpected moments when life flips the script.

    For Such a Time as This… and This… and This…

    In this episode, we dig deep into Esther 3-4, where the stakes are life and death, and Esther is faced with a calling that risks everything. Join us as we explore the famous line, "for such a time as this," and unpack what it means beyond the glamour of epic moments. How do we find purpose in the day-to-day, especially in times of fear, uncertainty, or unfairness? We'll discuss how the early readers might have understood this text, the layers of courage and sacrifice Esther embraced, and how we can see God in our lives—even when He seems absent. Perfect for anyone searching for perspective on purpose, resilience, and seeing the divine in each moment.

    Finding Our Place in God’s Story

    In this first episode of our new series on Esther, we dive into the conversations, questions, and reflections that led up to exploring the story of Esther and Mordecai. Set in a world where God seems absent but is powerfully at work, we consider how Esther’s unexpected rise to influence mirrors our own callings to be present and engaged where we are. We discuss themes of purpose, placement, and divine providence, inviting you to see God’s hand even in life’s messiest moments. Join us as we explore what it means to be placed in our world "for such a time as this."

    The Lord's Prayer

    In this special pre-retreat episode, pastors Rich, Greg, Rachel, and Scott gather to discuss the sessions they've prepared for the upcoming Corner Church Fall Retreat. Centered around the timeless words of the Lord's Prayer, each session offers a unique perspective on how this prayer guides and transforms our daily walk with God. Rich kicks off the conversation by setting the scene from the Sermon on the Mount. He explores how Jesus taught about authentic connection with God and introduces the significance of the Lord's Prayer in that context. Greg dives into the phrases "Hallowed be Thy name" and "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Reflecting on the reverence due to God's name, Greg discusses the importance of recognizing God's work around us and how we can actively participate in His Kingdom. Rachel shifts the focus to our daily dependence on God with "Give us today our daily bread" and "Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." She delves into trusting God for our needs, the challenge this poses to our sense of security, and the transformative power of embracing grace and forgiveness. Scott concludes with a discussion on "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one." He addresses the realities of life's challenges and the importance of seeking God's guidance and protection amid struggles. Join us as we share insights, stories, and heartfelt dialogue in anticipation of a meaningful retreat experience. Whether you're attending the retreat or simply seeking a deeper understanding of the Lord's Prayer, this episode invites you to prepare your heart and mind for a journey of faith and discovery.
