Ep 49 | Raising Children as Disciples (Luke 18:15–17)

In this episode of A Closer Look, Pastors Jason and David dive into Luke 18:15–17, where parents bring even infants to Jesus. They explore the cultural view of children in Jesus’ day versus the biblical truth that every child is a blessing, created for God’s glory. Together, they discuss what it means for parents to prepare their children not just for careers or success, but to become disciples of Jesus Christ.

They highlight the danger of child-centered parenting that fosters self-focus, and instead emphasize practical discipleship in the home—modeling worship, prayer, Bible study, and gospel-shaped priorities. The conversation also unpacks what Jesus meant by “childlike faith,” showing that entrance into God’s kingdom requires dependence and humility, not innocence or effort.

Ep 18 - Reflecting Christ's Generosity & Sacrifice in Our Giving

Join Pastors David and Jason in our latest podcast episode, discussing the biblical truths on the transformative concept of giving as part of the 'Gather, Grow, Give, and Go' series.  This episode delves into how giving goes beyond just the materialistic exchange of money. Time, skills, duties, and the abounding richness of life itself come under the umbrella of giving. Understand the incredible truth that all our blessings and resources originate from God, cementing our role as caretakers of His divine gifts. Discover how recognizing God's omnipresent providence alleviates fears associated with financial matters and enriches the joy derived from giving. We also talk about the grace-motivated act of giving, an act which is not about the size of the gift, but the heart behind it. As we think on the true essence of Christ's sacrifice, we hope to inspire a generous giving culture in you and beyond, reflecting Him in each act of generosity.
