Beyond the Pulpit is a podcast where faith meets real life. Hosted by Pastor Chris Rose, this is a place for honest conversations about God, ministry, leadership, relationships, culture, and the challenges we all face, Monday through Saturday.
We'll talk about what happens beyond the sermon; the questions pastors wrestle with, the lessons God teaches us, and the everyday moments where faith becomes real.
What if we stopped focusing on what we don't have and started praising God for everything He has already given us? In this episode of Wednesday Wrap-Up, we're looking at Ephesians 1:3 and discovering what it means to PRAISE God for His CHARITY! God has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ, and His generosity goes far beyond anything we could ever earn or deserve. We'll explore how God's goodness, grace, and generosity should transform the way we live, the way we see ourselves, a...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: What does it really mean to follow Jesus?
In this episode of Wednesday Wrap-Up, we're revisiting Mark 8:34-38 and unpacking Jesus' challenging call to discipleship. Jesus doesn't just invite us to believe in Him; He calls us to a life of surrender, sacrifice, and wholehearted commitment. We'll explore three powerful truths from this passage of Scripture: Jesus calls everyone, He calls us out of self-rule, and He calls us into costly following. Following Jesus means laying down our desire to be in control, denying ourselves,...

Monday Mess: World Famous
What do we do when God calls us forward, but He doesn't give us the full picture? In Hebrews 11:8-10, we find Abraham stepping into the unknown, not because he had all the answers, but because he trusted the One who called him. He left what was familiar without knowing exactly where he was going, choosing obedience over comfort and faith over the need for certainty. And that's where faith gets real. Faith under pressure isn't recklessness, and it doesn't mean having everything figured out. It...

Wednesday Wrap-Up:Known, Loved, and Called Forward
Following Jesus means being willing to let Him speak into our lives, even when the truth challenges our assumptions, corrects our direction, or calls us beyond our comfort zones. In Mark 8:27-33, we see that accountability is not about shame or condemnation; it's about growing in our relationship with Jesus. This Wednesday Wrap-Up, we're reminded of three powerful truths: We are KNOWN. We are LOVED. We are CALLED FORWARD. Jesus knows who we are, loves us enough to correct us, and refuses to l...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: Organize Your Life Around Jesus
What if discipleship isn't something we simply add to our already busy lives, but something that reorganizes our entire lives around Jesus? In Matthew 6:33, Jesus says, "Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." Discipleship means more than believing in Jesus or attending church; it means allowing Jesus to become the organizing priority of our lives. In this episode of Wednesday Wrap-Up, we'll look at what it means to seek f...

Monday Mess:Keep Building-Hebrews 11:7
What does it mean to fear God in a way that actually strengthens our faith? Hebrews 11:7 tells us that Noah, "in reverent fear," responded to God's warning about things he could not yet see. Noah's fear wasn't about running away from God; it was about taking God seriously enough to obey Him. In this episode of Monday Mess, we explore Holy Fear, the kind of reverence that moves us to trust God, obey His Word, and prepare for what He is doing even when we can't see it yet. Sometimes faith means...

Wednesday Wrap-Up on a Thursday Morning:Making Room for Divine Appointments-Acts 10
What if some of the interruptions in our lives are actually divine appointments? In Acts 10, Peter had his plans, his expectations, and his routine, but God was preparing him for an encounter that would change his understanding of who the Gospel was for. Peter had to be willing to step outside his comfort zone and make room for what God was doing. In this Wednesday Wrap-Up, we'll revisit Acts 10 and consider what it means to create margins in our lives for God to interrupt our schedules, chal...

Monday Mess:The Law That Sets Us Free
What if God's commands aren't meant to hold us back, but to set us free? In Psalm 19:7-11, David celebrated the law of the LORD as perfect, trustworthy, right, pure, and more valuable than gold. God's Word doesn't simply tell us what not to do; it guides us toward the life God created us to live. On this episode of Monday Mess, we'll discover how God's truth brings freedom, wisdom, joy, and direction when we allow His Word to shape our lives. Sometimes the boundaries God gives us are actually...

Monday Mess: When Everything Speak-Psalm 19:1-6
What if God is speaking more than we realize? In Psalm 19, David reminds us that creation itself is constantly declaring the glory of God. The heavens speak. The skies testify. Day after day, night after night, creation is preaching a message that doesn't require a microphone--and nobody is outside the sound of it. In this episode of Monday Mess, we take a look at what it means to slow down and listen. The world around us points beyond itself to a Creator who is powerful, intentional, and wor...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: Seed the Clouds-Psalm 126
What do you do when you're praying for rain but the sky still looks empty? Psalm 126 reminds us that God is faithful to bring a harvest, but we have a part to play--we must sow the seed, trust the promise, and keep praying for rain. "Seeding the Clouds" is about believing that our prayers are not wasted and our obedience is not meaningless. Every prayer, every act of faith, every sacrifice, and every seed we sow can become part of the harvest God is preparing. Don't wait until you see the clo...

Monday Mess: Safe hiding, New Song-Psalm 32:6-11
Mondays can feel messy. The week is waiting, responsibilities are piling up, and sometimes we carry fears and burdens nobody else can see. But Psalm 32:6-11 reminds us that we have a place to run. God is not simply someone we call on when trouble comes--He is our hiding place. He surrounds us with songs of deliverance, guides us in the way we should go, and gives us a reason to rejoice. In this episode of Monday Mess, we explore what it means to stop hiding from God and start hiding in Him. W...

Monday Mess: When the Truth Breaks Out-Psalm 32:3-5
What happens when we try to hide what God already knows? In this episode of Monday Mess, we explore Psalm 32:3-5 and the powerful truth that silence, secrecy, and unconfessed sin can become a heavy burden on our souls. David describes what happened when he kept silent--and then the freedom he discovered when he finally brought the truth into the light. Sometimes the mess isn't what happened to us. Sometimes the mess is what we've been trying to hide. Join us as we begin the week by disc...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: Cut the Rope
What do you do when the storm comes and fear starts taking control? In this episode of Wednesday Wrap-Up, we dive into Mark 4:35-41, where Jesus and His disciples find themselves in the middle of a fierce storm. The disciples were overwhelmed by the waves, but Jesus was still in the boat. Sometimes the storm isn't the only thing we need to confront; sometimes we need to cut the rope that keeps us tied to fear, worry, doubt, and the need to control what only God can handle. Join Pastor C...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: August 19, 2026, "Not by Might, but by His Spirit"-Zechariah 4:6-10
Halfway through the week, it's easy to feel tired, overwhelmed, or discouraged by the mountains standing in front of us. In this episode, we turn to Zechariah 4:6-10 and God's powerful reminder: "Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit." God reminds Zerubbabel, and all of us, that what He calls us to accomplish doesn't depend on our own strength, talent, or ability. It depends on His Spirit. Even the biggest mountains can be moved when we trust God and allow Him to work through us. We'll ...

Wednesday Wrap-Up: Building on the Rock
Life doesn't come with a warning before the storms hit. In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus reminds us that the difference between standing and falling isn't whether we face storms; it's what we've built our lives on. In this episode of Wednesday Wrap-Up, we'll take a few minutes to pause in the middle of the week and ask some important questions: What are we building? What foundation are we standing on? And are we simply hearing the words of Jesus, or are we actually putting them into practice? The st...
