Hope Fellowship Teaching Podcast

As we continue our "Gifts of Advent" series, this week’s message focuses on The Gift of Power. Guest speaker Mike Foster invites us to rethink what power really looks like by pointing us to the birth of Jesus. You’ll be encouraged to see how God’s strength is often revealed in humility, service, and faithfulness, and how even small, unseen acts can make a lasting difference.

As we continue in our series The Gifts of Advent, guest speaker Andrea Lathrop invites us to reflect on The Gift of Life, a gift we don’t earn but receive in Jesus. Through Nicodemus’s conversation with Christ, she reminds us that true life begins when we are born of the Spirit. Andrea highlights how God has already given us new life, and that its fullness will one day be revealed when we are raised with Christ.

As we enter the Advent season, we’re launching a new series called The Gifts of Advent, a look at the meaningful gifts God gives us through Jesus. Today, we’re focusing on The Gift of Light, celebrating Jesus as the eternal light who breaks through our darkness and leads us into life.

Join us as Pastor Broc Jahnke unpacks the Parable of the Sower and invites us to take an honest look at the condition of our hearts. Through Jesus’ own words in this story, we’re reminded that real spiritual growth starts on the inside. It’s a timely encouragement to return to Jesus, pay attention to what’s shaping our hearts, and step into a deeper, healthier life with Him.

In this message, Pastor Eric Sebastian teaches from the Parable of the Talents, helping us understand what God has placed in our hands, what He calls us to do with it, and the fears that often hold us back. Through clear questions and real-life application, you’ll be encouraged to trust God more deeply, live with open hands, and boldly step into the purpose He’s given you.
