Vintage Grace's Podcast

Episodes
Everyone has asked this question: Why is evil allowed to exist alongside good, and what is God doing about it?
Jesus tells a parable to help his disciples catch a glimpse of God's plan and to strengthen their faith.
In God's sovereignty He has called us to not only follow Him as sons, but also to go & sow as a 'Sent One'. Our mission is simple: faithfully follow, faithfully sow, everywhere we go. In God's Kingdom ordinary obedience yields extraordinary fruit - immeasurably more!
The Kingdom requires eyes to see & a heart full of desire. Only the people who want it will find it.
Acknowledge: our need for Peace; we are all desperate & dependent
Accept: His gift of mercy, grace & peace
Be Aware: Peace is having His perspective of the final score & also part of His family
James wants more for his brothers… He doesn't want us to miss out on the person of Jesus: the greatest gift offered to us at Christmas. More than even FOMO, he wants us to have MORE JOY which happens when we humbly reorient our desires in the pathway to God’s Grace.
Faith is 1st & foremost a GIFT. Faith is useless without action, because it is dead.
If faith has been received & experienced, then it is inevitably expressed & acted on.
The question today is, have we received the gift of faith, & do our actions show this; so the world might see Jesus in us and through us!
God gives us the gift of wisdom which helps us see trials (& all of life) from His perspective.
Trials can actually deepen our JOY in Jesus, give us a fuller experience with Abba & the family of God; & create a massive opportunity for others to see the JOY
of Jesus offered to them!
Communitas: Marked by the Blood
Jesus declares that the family of God is all those who do the will of His Father in heaven.
Common Master = Family
Common Mission = Will
The resurrection is the ultimate sign of Jesus's identity, and it's sufficient to lead to saving faith. But missing the Savior right in front of you will leave you worse off than before.
What we treasure is revealed in our words.
The most important question in the world is: Who is Jesus? Our answer to that question determines the trajectory of our lives. There are only 2 answers.
Matthew reveals some important aspects of Jesus's character that are not random. They fulfill Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah and teach us what Jesus is like.
Jesus, Lord of the Sabbath, reveals God's heart for the Sabbath & invites us into a life of REST, reflection, & reward in Him.
People saw Jesus's mighty works firsthand & they still missed it-but His invitation remains.
Saying yes to following Jesus means rest for your soul-eternal & temporal shalom.
1. Mighty Works Missed (11:20-24)
2. God's Gracious Revelation (11:25-27)
3. Rest for Your Soul (11:28-30)
When you have doubt remember you are in good company.
Decide where you will go to get answers and clarity.
Look to what God has done and is doing around you.
Look to Scripture
Don't miss Jesus!
It's ALL about JESUS.
Following Jesus is a simple & costly endeavor, but the joy far outweighs the cost.
May we not miss, that when we feel like we are losing, He is actually taking ground!
May we see, even redeem, the simplest moments, like giving a simple cup of water, knowing that small things in the hands of a BIG GOD will have ripple effects through all of eternity - for His glory & others' good!
Confidence in Jesus's identity, as the good and sovereign Shepherd, is the key to our boldness as we walk with Christ. This puts every fear in check, reminding us who is on the throne of the cosmos and who daily deserves the throne of our hearts.
May we see Him clearly and say it boldly- Christ is King! #KingdomInAction
Jesus knowingly sends the disciples into a battle zone, where persecution is imminent, but He does not send them alone.
The SPIRIT goes with them and supplies what they need. Enduring suffering to the end is part of what makes us like our Rabbi.
Everything is for His Glory, our good, & the joy of those who will come to faith through our pain.
Matthew gives us an invaluable glimpse of Jesus' pregame huddle with His disciples before #GameTime.
He prepares them to face every blindside blitz, to recognize the attacks & the responses, & all the while to trust fully: "He's got us!"
Jesus is clear-this IS going to be hard. On our own, we are NOT ready. #ButGod reminds us this isn't really about us at all-it's about Him going before...
Jesus empowers and sends those who treasure Him to be vessels of His love.
