Grace CMA Church Messages Podcast

Failure is something we all face—but what if it’s not the end of the story? Looking at Peter’s life, this message explores how our desire to prove ourselves or protect our image can lead us off track. But through Jesus’ response, we’re reminded that failure can become a turning point. When met with the grace of God, it can lead us into deeper trust and a renewed invitation to follow Him.Want to take a next step? 👋 New to Grace? Learn more at gracecma.org/new 🙏 Need prayer?

Doubt is something we don’t always talk about, but it’s part of the journey. In this message, we look at Thomas’ story in John 20 and what it shows us about being honest in our questions, recognizing that God is still pursuing us, and choosing to trust Him even when we don’t have all the answers. Doubt isn’t the end of faith—it can lead to something deeper.

In Matthew 27, Pilate presents the crowd with a choice: Jesus the Messiah or Jesus Barabbas. One is innocent. One is guilty. Yet the crowd chooses Barabbas. This moment reveals more than a historical injustice—it exposes the human tendency to prefer a version of salvation that fits our expectations. While the crowd hoped for a deliverer who would fight for their freedom, Jesus came to bring a deeper freedom through the cross. In this message, we look at the contrast between these two figures and the powerful gospel truth behind the story. The innocent Son of God willingly took the place of the guilty so that we could become children of God.

In this message, Tim walks through Haggai 1–2 and calls us to remember well — remembering God’s faithfulness, our purpose, and our unique assignment as a church. We are invited not to settle into distraction or survival, but to step forward in obedience, courage, and hope. Our assignment for this season: Extending the transformative love of Jesus to our neighbors and the nations. He has done it before. He will do it again.

What is the posture of your heart? In this message from Philippians 2:5–11, Zach Meerkreebs explores humility through the life of Jesus — who did not cling to His position, but emptied Himself. From pride in prayer to the cross and the throne, this teaching invites us to consider what we’re holding onto and where self may still be enthroned. Humility is not weakness. It is consecrated confidence — and the way down is the way up.Want to take a next step? 👋 New to Grace? Learn more at gracecma.org/new 🙏 Need prayer?
