August 22, 2021, Traditional Service, Promotion Sunday for Third Graders

For our regularly scheduled broadcasts at 11am and 1pm, we were having technical difficulties. We apologize for the inconvenience but wanted to make sure that you got to see this week’s recorded service! Today is Confirmation Sunday and Third Graders were given Bibles. We have re-instated the Passing of the Peace and the Children’s Sermon into the service for the first time in over a year! In announcements, we were reminded that TODAY is our Back-to-School Bash at 5:30pm in the Quad! (Remember towels for the slip n’ slides and wet bouncy houses!) Last, but certainly not least, this sermon is the continuation of a Series on Prayer. This week’s focus is Intercessory Prayer. Thank you for your patience and we send our blessings! #growingfaith

Hosts: Tommy Bridges and John Fugh, Jr.

In This Episode: There comes a time when we come to the point in our lives when we  ask, “Is this all there is?”    Brennan discusses three crises that precipitate us asking this question: Crisis of Hope, Crisis of Faith, and Crisis of Love.

Jesus insists that the Father is crazy with love for us.  He didn’t say that it would be nice if the Father loved us.  He said the Father does love us.

We’d love to hear from you. If you’d like to reach out to us, email us at podcast@spumccolumbus.com.
