North Metro Church Podcast

In life, as imperfect people, every once and a while, we need a trusted friend to talk to us about "that thing we do." It's that thing that can do damage to our character, relationships, and reputations. In this message, we're talking about our anger. It’s in the way and it’s time to beg God to "Kill that within me that doesn't bring Him glory." It's time to lean into God's grace and beg Him to help us make a change.

As 2023 comes to a close, NMC Student Director Derek McClardy encourages us to focus on true renewal in the person of Jesus Christ.

This special Christmas Eve message reminds us of God With Us. In Matthew, he is trying to tell us that God is not God above us, not God created us, or not God knows us, but that God is WITH us. The same God who came near to Adam and Eve is the same God who wants to come near to us. The same God who moved in power back then is the same God who wants to move in power in our life now.
