Coastal Church Podcast

We live in a world full of noise, distractions, and things that promise meaning but leave us empty. Beneath it all is a simple question: Are we chasing what’s trivial, or are we carrying what truly matters?When Scripture speaks of the glory of God, it describes something weighty, real, and transformative. An encounter with God’s glory exposes what is empty and draws us into a life of substance, purpose, and eternal significance.

In a world where peace often feels tied to circumstances, God offers something far deeper and unshakable. This weekend, we will learn how true peace isn’t found in life getting easier, but in living within the presence of God. When His glory is near, peace follows, guarding our hearts and minds, restoring what’s been broken, and steadying us no matter what we face.

Before God brought the Children of Israel into the Promised Land, he first took them through the desert, in the liminal space, in order to shape them and equip them for the Promised Land. Likewise, God will often take us through our desert to prepare us for what is to come, and that is often where we experience His glory.

Join us this weekend as we welcome special guest speaker Karl Martin — visionary leader and founder/CEO of Arable, a leadership house dedicated to cultivating healthy culture and shaping leaders who impact the world.You won’t want to miss the wisdom and encouragement he’ll bring!

Praising and worshipping God brings His glory and His presence into our lives. He inhabits, enthrones, or sits among our praises. When we praise and worship, we invite His manifest presence or His glory to dwell with us.
