Stuff I Wished We'd Talked About During Lent

Mother's Day

Baptism - Finding Identity in Jesus

Join us as Ahren helps us tackle the question, "Why does the 'old gospel story' matter in our complex modern world?" 

The Gospel

Pentecost Sunday

I Samuel - The Providence of God (chapter 9)

In this message, Ahren walks us through a simple pattern or liturgy designed to break devotional bible reading into practical steps.  WITHDRAW, INVITE, READ, MEDITATE, APPLY, CELEBRATE, ARTICULATE.

Summer in the Word

This week, we heard from Jono on the parable of the Sower and the Seed (Matthew 13). He shared that in order to really hear what God is saying to us through scripture, we have to be willing to dialogue with him. We have to engage with the text and seek a deeper understanding.
Jesus isn’t interested in people who only want a surface level relationship with him. He wants intimacy and discussion.

The Parable of the Sower and the Seed (Matthew 13)

Brian shared his testimony with us on Sunday, and spoke to us about the lessons he learned from the book of James. He shared how temptations come from our own sinful desires and attitudes of comparison, and how only god can produce a real change to our thoughts and our conduct.

The Faithfulness of God

We were so happy to have Mark and Debbie back to visit and share their story of moving to Mexico to follow God's calling for them. The theme of their message this Sunday was Embracing Discomfort.

Sometimes we have a false belief that God wouldn't want us to be uncomfortable or wouldn't be leading us down the path blocked by obstacles. But God never promises us an easy life.

Embracing Discomfort

Welcome to the OVC Podcast feed. We're so glad you're taking time to hear how God is working in and through our community. Our mantra is "we are all people with messes of lives" who gather under the incredible grace and love of God. It is our desire to love God, love people, and have fun.
