Episodes
What does holy love really look like when it gets personal? In this message, we explore Leviticus 19:15-18, a passage that calls us to live with fairness, truth, and courage. This sermon reminds us that God's love doesn't play favorites, turn a blind eye, or hold grudges. It confronts sin and clings to righteousness.
Through a powerful combination of biblical insight and real-life application, we unpack what ...
What does it mean to be live honestly? To protect the vulnerable? To treat others with dignity, even when it costs us something? This message challenges us to examine the gap between claimed love and lived-out truth--and invites us to become people who speak truth and extend hospitality with courage and care.
Whether you've struggled with being honest in hard moments, or you've been tempted to ignore the need...
What if holiness isn't just about personal purity--but how we treat the vulnerable? In this episode, we begin a new series called Love Thy Neighbor, where we explore how God's command to leave the edges of the harvest was never just about farming. It was about compassion.
In a world that pushes us to take more and protect what is ours, this message challenges us to live with intentional margin--because God&ap...
What do river rocks, grocery cats, and the Apostle Paul have in common? In this down-to-earth and thought-provoking message, Pastor Nicole uses a tiny pebble and a kid's rock collection to unpack a powerful truth from 2 Thessalonians 3:6-7:
- The church cannot afford idle rocks.
- The Kingdom doesn't thrive on standstill saints.
- And your faith was never meant to stagnate.
Through humor, heart, and convictio...
The storm had passed, but Noah didn’t rush. He waited—watching, listening, trusting. When the dove didn’t return, he knew: the season had changed, and it was time to move forward.
In this episode, Pastor Jason explores what it means to wait on God’s timing and how spiritual maturity is shown in our willingness to surrender control. Drawing from Noah’s quiet obedience, this sermon challenges us to release our grip, trus...
We say God can have it all… but what about the parts we keep hidden? In this episode, Pastor Jason explores the story of King Azariah (also known as Uzziah) and the “surrender gap” that blocked the blessing of God—not just in his life, but in his community.
With honesty, humor, and hope, this message challenges us to examine the “keep out” signs in our hearts. Whether it's pride, fear, or comfort, anything we wit...
"What are human beings that You think about them?"
That’s the question King David asks in Psalm 8—and it’s a question many of us still wrestle with today. In a world that measures our worth by performance and perfection, Scripture tells a different story.
In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, we explore the stunning truth that you were made not just to admire God’s glory, but to reflect it. You were...
On Pentecost, the disciples were transformed from blabber mouths and doubters into bold, Spirit-filled witnesses. The fire came, the Spirit moved, and 3,000 people came to faith in one day.
But what about us? In this bold and timely sermon, Pastor Nicole asks a powerful question: Are we still waiting for our Pentecost?
We say we do not want to offend--but have we really surrendered to the Spirit who compels us to speak?...
What does it mean when Jesus says, "I am coming soon"? For many, those words spark fear, uncertainty, or confusion. But in Revelation 22, they are not a threat--they are a promise. In this Ascension Sunday message, Pastor Jason explores how "soon" is less about clocks and more about certainty and readiness.
With grace-fueled urgency and heartfelt honesty, we are invited to examine the condition of o...
What do you do when the story ends in sorrow? In this episode, we open a quiet and often overlooked passage in 1 Chronicles 7—a father named Ephraim mourns the loss of his sons. There’s no tidy resolution, no Hallmark ending. Just grief… and a God who doesn’t turn away from it.
Through personal story and biblical reflection, we explore how God meets us in our brokenness and how His promises still hold—even when healing...
In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, we journey into the often-overlooked book of Song of Songs, where a tender invitation becomes a wake-up call for our spiritual lives. Drawing from Song of Songs 2:14–15, Pastor Jason explores the metaphor of “little foxes” that sneak in and threaten to ruin the vineyards of our faith, relationships, and calling.
This message was more than just a sermon—it was a physical,...
Is Proverbs 31 a blueprint for the perfect woman—or something more?
In this special message, Pastor Nicole takes us beyond the surface of this often-misunderstood passage. With wisdom, grace, and humor, she invites us to see Proverbs 31 not as a checklist of expectations, but as a celebration of faithfulness, strength, and character—qualities that reflect the image of God in us all.
Whether you’ve felt pressured by unre...
In the final message of our Hearing Voices series, we arrive at the empty tomb—and discover that the first voices to proclaim the resurrection weren’t apostles or angels, but women. In a culture that didn’t recognize their testimony, God entrusted them with the greatest news in history: He is not here. He has risen.
This Easter message challenges us to reconsider who we listen to—and who we may be ignoring. Could it be...
In this sixth installment of our Lent series Hearing Voices, we turn our attention to a group we often love to judge—the Pharisees. Found in Luke 19:39–40, their demand to silence the crowd during Jesus’ triumphal entry reveals more than just religious rigidity—it reveals a heart resistant to uncomfortable truth.
In this episode, Pastor Jason gets honest about his own bias against the Pharisees and his struggle to symp...
In a world that often tunes out the quiet and broken, Jesus hears what others ignore. We continue our Lent series, “Hearing Voices,” by listening to the silent but powerful faith of a woman in Luke 8. She doesn’t have a name, a voice in the crowd, or a place in society—but she does have faith.
As Jesus is on His way to heal a prominent leader’s daughter, He stops everything to acknowledge a woman who simply touched His...
Have you ever felt like an outsider—like you don’t belong, like you're on the outside looking in? In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, we continue our Hearing Voices series by listening to the voice of a persistent woman in Mark 7:24-30. She wasn’t part of the "in crowd." She wasn’t supposed to have access to Jesus. And yet, her relentless faith moved Him to respond.
This message is for those...
Too often, churches send the unspoken message that children are distractions rather than disciples in the making. But in Mark 10, Jesus makes it clear—children belong in His presence. In this episode, we dive into what it truly means to welcome children in our churches and in our hearts. From personal experiences with resistance to creating spaces of belonging, we’ll explore how embracing the voices of children reflec...
Have you ever found yourself waiting on God—praying, believing, but wondering if He’s ever going to come through? In this episode, we look at the story of Simeon, a man who waited his entire life to see God’s promise fulfilled. His faithfulness, patience, and trust in the Holy Spirit led him straight to Jesus at just the right time.
We’ll also talk about the keepers of the promise—those seasoned saints who have walked ...
What does success in God’s eyes really look like? If we measure it by results, then Isaiah’s mission was a failure. But in Isaiah 6, we see that God wasn’t calling Isaiah to be successful—He was calling him to be faithful.
In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, we begin our Lent series, Hearing Voices, by listening to the voice of the prophets. Isaiah was sent to speak God’s truth, knowing people wouldn’t lis...
We often believe that knowledge and wisdom will keep us on the right path—but the story of Solomon proves otherwise. He was the wisest man to ever live, yet his heart was slowly turned away from God through small compromises.
Wisdom alone isn’t enough if our hearts are divided. Solomon knew God’s commands but chose personal desires over obedience. His downfall serves as both a warning and an invitation: Are there areas...
