Standing Firm in the Faith: Parenting, Marriage, and Faith at Home
<p>In this episode, we continue a conversation around what it means to “stand firm in the faith,” moving beyond theory and into the everyday realities of marriage, parenting, and family life.<br /></p><p>We’re joined by Allee and Debbie, who bring their perspective as both daughters and mothers, reflecting on faith being woven into daily decisions, conversations, and even moments of conflict.<br /></p><p>A major focus of this discussion connects back to the recent Father’s Day message where we explored what biblical fatherhood looks like beyond provision alone. While providing for a family is essential, the conversation challenges the idea that it stops there. We talk honestly about the call for fathers to also be present, emotionally engaged, spiritually grounded, and intentional in nurturing the hearts of their children.<br /></p><p>From there, the conversation opens up into real stories about how faith was modeled in the home, how disagreements were handled in front of the kids, what it looked like to navigate seasons of pressure and church leadership, and how those experiences shaped their understanding of God, family, and forgiveness.<br /></p><p>We also reflect on the tension many families feel between work and home life, and how intentional decisions, both good and imperfect, form the culture of a household over time.<br /></p><p>At the center of it all is this idea: standing firm in the faith isn’t just about what you believe, it’s about how those beliefs are lived out in marriage, parenting, and the everyday rhythms of family life, especially when things get messy.<br /><br />Submit your questions to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:podcast@gracefellowship.com" target="_blank"><b>podcast@gracefellowship.com</b></a><br /><br />Subscribe to our channel: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny" target="_blank"><b>https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny</b></a><br />To give online: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://gracefellowship.com/give/" target="_blank"><b>https://gracefellowship.com/give/</b></a><br /><br /><br />To glorify God by making more and better disciples.

When God Feels Silent
<p>In this episode of the <i>More and Better Disciples Podcast</i>, the conversation starts with a light “Better Call Saul” reference that quickly turns into a deeper reflection on what it feels like when God seems silent in your life.<br /></p><p>From Paul’s hidden years in Tarsus to the unexpected growth of the church in Antioch, the discussion explores how God is often doing His most important work in seasons that do not look like much from the outside.<br /></p><p>We talk about leadership not as position or platform but as influence formed in obscurity. What does it mean when you know you have a calling but nothing around you seems to confirm it yet? And how do you stay faithful in those in between seasons?<br /></p><p>The conversation also turns to Antioch, a church that embraced diversity, sent people out instead of building inward comfort, and became a launching point for the expansion of the gospel.<br /></p><p>Whether you feel unseen, stuck, or simply unsure of what God is doing, this episode is a reminder that silence is not absence and formation often happens long before clarity arrives.<br /><br />To submit questions: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:podcast@gracefellowship.com" target="_blank">podcast@gracefellowship.com</a><br /><br />Subscribe to our channel: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny</a><br /><br />To glorify God by making more and better disciples.

Behind the Sermon: How Campus Pastors Prep for Sermons
<p>What happens before a sermon is ever preached? In a more “behind-the-scenes” episode of the More and Better Disciples podcast, Tim, Jesse, Isaac, and Mat sit down to talk candidly about the sermon preparation process, the pressure of preaching, and the ways God often works on the preacher before the message ever reaches the congregation.<br /></p><p>From the overlooked book of Obadiah to Psalm 34 and Exodus 34, the conversation explores pride, assumptions about God, loving your enemies, seeking the Lord, and learning to bless God even in difficult seasons. The team also discusses the challenge of narrowing down big biblical themes, the reality of rewriting sermons late in the process, and how pastors sharpen one another through feedback and collaboration before Sunday arrives.<br /></p><p>Along the way, there are stories, movie references, sports analogies, and honest moments about faith, justice, discipleship, and what it really looks like to prepare a message week after week. Whether you’ve preached before or have never thought about what goes into a sermon, this episode offers a candid look behind the curtain at the work, prayer, and process involved in teaching God’s Word.</p><p><br /><br />Submit your questions to <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:podcast@gracefellowship.com" target="_blank"><b>podcast@gracefellowship.com</b></a><br /><br />Subscribe to our channel: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/gracefellowshipny</a><br />To give online: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://gracefellowship.com/give/" target="_blank">https://gracefellowship.com/give/</a><br /><br /><br />To glorify God by making more and better disciples.
