Episode 101 - Worship - How to Be in a Parade (Philippians 2:5-11)

On this Palm Sunday, we celebrate the arrival of Jesus in Jerusalem in the Triumphal Entry - but also pause to consider the different sort of king this rabbi on the donkey actually is. What does it look like to follow in his footsteps? Our choir helps us worship with At the Name of Jesus.

Episode 100 - Worship - Better Days (Jeremiah 31:31-34)

Lent is drawing to a close, and we are ending our journey through God's commitment to covenant as we turn our eyes towards the cross and the empty tomb. In this week's sermon, Pastor Adam invites us to consider what it means that God is writing his law upon our hearts as part of a new covenant. Our choir helps us worship with Create in Me a Clean Heart, and Dr. Mc Amoss ends our worship with the instrumental Jesus Calls Us o'er the Tumult.

Episode 099 - Worship - Looking Up to Live (Numbers 21:4-9)

As we continue our Lenten journey along the path of covenant, we encounter a strange story with fiery serpents and a bronze snake on a pole. Despite his aversion to these slithering reptiles, Pastor Adam explores what is going on in this story and how Jesus would use this tale to remind us of the need to choose to be in relationship with God so we can live. Our choir's anthem is a moving arrangement of the hymn, There Is a Balm in Gilead.

Episode 098 - Worship - Love is Foolishness (Exodus 20:1-17)

Any Lenten journey along the path of God's choice of covenant would be incomplete without a pause in Exodus 20 - the Ten Commandments. Read in conjunction with our other Scripture reading, 1 Corinthains 1:18-25, we consider together how God chose a way that seems foolish to us, but that is more incredible than all the wisdom in the world. Our choir also offers a beautiful anthem, If You Love Me.

Episode 097 - Worship - Playing the Long Game (Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16)

We continue our journey through Lent by revisiting God's covenant with Abraham and Sarah in Genesis this week. Pastor Adam invites us to consider how God plays the long game - and how that means we become more like God, and God responds to our actions and incorporates them into his plan, through the covenant we share. Our choir also offers a beautiful anthem, and Mc closes the service with an incredible piano piece. Thanks for worshipping with us this week!

Episode 096 - Worship - God's Love Has Limits (Genesis 9:8-17)

Welcome to the season of Lent at Farmville Baptist Church. Throughout this season of preparation for Good Friday and Easter, we are considering the way God works through relationships to share his love with us and with the world. In this episode, we look at the very first instance of covenant in the Scriptures: when God limited himself to be in relationship with Noah and all creation.
Please note: this episode is running late because of a technical issue on 2/18/24. We apologize for any inconvenience, and hope it will be able to help you experience God this Lenten season.
