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."

    Open Heavens #5 -- Ephesians 1:15-23 -- How well do I know God?

    Send me a Text Message! How well do I know God? If there was one and only one question we should ask ourselves as we start a new year...it would be, "How well do I know him?" Jesus once was overheard praying, he said, "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." (John 17:3) How well do I know God? Moses spoke with God like a man does with his friend, and yet he cried out to know more of God. Paul said, nothing matters to me more than knowing Christ. I want to know Christ. Maggie Ross described the start of spiritual life as beginning to understand that the feeling of emptiness is really an indication of our hunger for God.  In other words, every need you have experienced is a reminder that what I need more than anything... is to know God. How well do I know God?

    Open Heavens #4 -- Ephesians 1:3-14 -- God's all-in on your blessing!

    Send me a Text Message! In his book "The Prayer of Jabez" Bruce Wilkinson writes, "To bless in the Biblical sense means to ask for or to impart supernatural favor.  When we ask for God's Blessing, we're not asking for more of what we could get for ourselves. We're crying out for the wonderful, unlimited goodness that only God has the power to give us."  I think the problem is that somewhere along the way, we quit believing that God's blessing matters, or maybe we quit believing that God really wants to bless us. But let me tell you God's all-in on your blessing!

    Open Heavens #3 -- Ephesians 1 & John 5 -- The dumbest question ever?

    Send me a Text Message! In this episode, you will hear Jesus ask a question, that on first hearing, you may be tempted to think, "That's the dumbest question I've ever heard." He walks up to one broken man lying in the midst of hundreds of broken people. They're all laying around a pool because of a legend that when the pool bubbled, the first one in would be healed. Jesus walks up to this man who has laid poolside for over three decades and Jesus asks, "Do you want to be made well?" But of course, it's not really a dumb question. It's the question, we probably all need to answer. Do you want to be made well and... do you trust Jesus to do it?

    Open Heavens #2 -- Malachi 3:1-17 -- God says, "I dare you to try to outgive me!"

    Send me a Text Message! In Malachi 3, I believe Malachi, or rather God through Malachi, is trying to tell us that generosity ushers in heaven on earth, that generous people are the people who unwrap heaven.  So in this episode I'll dare you to take a NY's dare to be more generous than you ever thought possible. And actually it's not my dare.  It's God's.  "I dare you to test me." God says. "I dare you to try to outgive me. Care for the poor in your midst and in your circle.  See if I will not open the floodgates of heaven and give you a New Year filled with heaven all year long." Perhaps this is how we return to God and live under open-heavens!

    Open Heavens #1 -- Malachi 3:10-12 -- What if heaven is here?

    Send me a Text Message! There is a light that shines in the darkness and in the end, Christmas wins. In the days after Christmas there there’s still darkness and we will still need light. We need the light of hope for the darkness of difficulty. Difficulty didn't take a break over the holidays. We need the light of hope. We need the light of generosity for the darkness of selfishness.  Christmas scratches the itch of grace deep within us. It gives us a chance to counteract that selfish streak we hate in ourselves.  And what if, rather than being a holiday, here and then  gone, Christmas was a holy day that is meant to ignite a light that burns through a year of days? What if the Christmas lights are simply a metaphor of an unseen reality that the light of heaven has now invaded  our world and all the darkness of the world cannot stand against the glory of that light? What if Christmas is a reminder of the wonder that heaven is now in our midst? What if heaven is here?

    Come Lord Jesus #25 -- Christmas Stories -- What if Jesus never came?

    Send me a Text Message! For the last episode of Come Lord Jesus, I just want to offer this post-Christmas question. What if Jesus had never come? What if it never happened? What if all we have for Christmas is Santa, elves, and the naughty-nice list. What if there was no Christ in Christmas? What if there were no ripples of heaven on earth that continued to this day? What if Jesus never came?

    Come Lord Jesus #24 -- John 1 & Luke 2 -- He's on a mission to bring us home!

    Send me a Text Message! DON'T LISTEN TO THIS -- If you are going to Christmas Eve services at Calvary Harvest Fields. :) It's not exactly the same, but similar! But if you aren't going to Christmas Eve services at Calvary, I hope that this episode encourages you with the Christmas truth that Jesus is on a mission to bring you home for Christmas!

    Come Lord Jesus #23 -- Luke 1:26-31 -- God would you do me a favor?

    Send me a Text Message! In this episode, we are going to talk about favor. That's an interesting word isn't it? Favor. It's used multiple times in the Christmas stories. When we think of the word favor, it's usually used in a sentence like this, "Hey would you do me a favor?" When we ask someone to do us a favor we're saying, "You don't owe me. I don't necessarily deserve this, haven't earned it, but I'm wondering if you would do it anyway. Do me a favor."  Often that's the question behind our prayers is, "God would you please do me a favor." The Dictionary suggests that favor is kindness beyond what is due or usual. It makes me think that perhaps the a good two word description of Christmas is "God's Favor." As we take a peak at Mary the mother of Jesus, we can pray, "God would you do me a favor?"
