Momentum Church // Garfield Heights Podcast

There are big problems and then there are little problems. Often the big problems get taken care of because they are there staring us in the face and the small problems we are tempted to say, “It’s no big deal...I’ll take care of that later.” As we push little problems off they tend get bigger and cause more problems. Things like lust, having difficult conversations, feelings of insecurity, worry, putting a fork in the microwave... Well, spiritually that one might not cause a problem. Physically though...

Christians believe there is a constant, unseen battle being waged for the souls of mankind. People make choices, but forces of true good and pure evil try to influence us toward Jesus or away from Jesus – the central figure. Scripture teaches us that mankind’s main enemy is a predator, Satan, who wants to “take out us,” spiritually speaking. How does he attack? What are his weapons? How do we defend ourselves, fight back, and pray? And are we playing into his hands when we cheer for the Steelers, Yankees, or Wolverines? Okay, that last one might not be quite as important.

Parable = a story with a spiritual point. Jesus constantly used parables and familiar images to teach others – in plain English – about having a relationship with God. We try to do that at Mo, too. For example, every couple of years we break out some comic books and use their stories as parables to teach about “loving God” and “loving people.” What are the origin stories of these heroes? How did they acquire their powers? What is their duty to mankind now that they have these powers? Most importantly, what can we learn about God and the Bible from these fun stories? Inside of these parables are deep spiritual truths and lessons that will challenge us as we seek a deeper relationship with God. And for the real geeks – yes, we’ve given equal time to both Marvel and DC.

“OMNI” (Latin prefix for “all”) is an exploration of the Creator’s most mind-blowing and face-melting attributes.  We’ll use the short biblical book of Jonah as a guide to help us grasp a crazy-awesome God who is “OMNI-present,” “OMNI-powerful,” “OMNI-knowing,” and “OMNI-loving.”
