Advertise on podcast: NORTH.CHURCH Podcast with Pastor Rodney Fouts

In his message "First Forgive", Pastor Rodney reminds us that forgiveness is evidence of a fruitful Christian life. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting the hurt or pretending the offense never happened, it means releasing the debt, surrendering our right to revenge, and trusting God to redeem what was lost. When we remember the grace we've received through Christ, we can extend that same grace to others and experience the freedom that comes through forgiveness.

Pastor Christian reminds us that the same compassion Jesus showed us is the compassion we are called to extend to others, regardless of their background or circumstances. Through the feeding of the four thousand in Mark 8, we see that Jesus works through ordinary people who are willing to use what they have to reach those around them. As ambassadors of the unstoppable gospel, we are challenged to look beyond our own circles, build meaningful relationships, and boldly share the hope of Jesus with those who need Him.

In week five of "The Unstoppable Gospel", Pastor Rodney reminds us that while suffering is an unavoidable part of life, we never have to face it alone because Jesus is near. Through the story of the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5, we learn that faith bridges the gap between our suffering and the presence of Jesus, who can use even our most difficult seasons to strengthen our faith, transform our lives, and remind us that suffering never has the final word.

Pastor Samson challenged us to follow Paul’s example and dare to move—allowing God to change us, boldly challenging others with the Gospel, and refusing to let our “chains” or limitations keep us from our calling. When we surrender even the painful or broken parts of our story to Jesus, He can use them as a powerful witness that makes Him clearer to the world around us.

A Jesus Awakening happens when God’s Word takes root in people, the Holy Spirit moves in power, and lives are genuinely transformed. Like the awakening in Ephesus, the unstoppable gospel is marked by proclamation, demonstration, and transformation—God’s Word is preached and practiced, His power is evident, and people surrender sin to become more like Jesus.

Pastor Rodney taught that praise is more than a song. It’s making much of God with our words, actions, attitudes, and entire lives in response to who He is and what He has done. Praise is a choice that shifts our perspective from the size of our circumstances to the greatness and faithfulness of God, declaring that even when we don’t understand what He is doing, we still know who He is.

Pastor Rodney kicked off the new series, The Unstoppable Gospel, with a reminder that Sabbath is God’s gift to pull us out of the relentless pace of life and back into His presence. Through rest, remembrance, relationship, and rejoicing, we learn to trust God, remember His faithfulness, reconnect with Him and others, and enjoy the life He has given us.

David Suey shared a powerful message about the difference between salvation and sanctification—Jesus not only saves us, but invites us into a lifelong process of surrender where we continually choose His way over our own. Through his personal story, David reminded us that following Jesus won’t always be easy or remove every struggle, but Jesus is worth it because His way leads to abundant life.

Pastor Samson reminded us that even in seasons of disappointment and lost hope, Jesus is often closer than we realize, meeting us in our sadness and revealing Himself through Scripture. As we commit to seeking Him in His Word and gathering faithfully with His Church, our eyes are opened to the risen Savior who transforms hopeless hearts into hopeful proclaimers of the Gospel.

Pastor Rodney reminded us that because we bear God’s image, everything we have ultimately belongs to Him—our time, talents, relationships, influence, finances, and our very lives. Tithing is more than giving 10%; it’s an act of worship, obedience, and trust that moves our mindset from “MINE” to “THE LORD’S,” declaring that God is our source and comes first in every area of our lives.

Pastor Rodney teaches that the heart of Jesus, and the mission of His Church, is to pursue those who are lost with enormous concern and incredible effort. Through the parables of Luke 15, we see that every lost person matters to God, and when even one is found and returns to Him, all of heaven celebrates. Listen and be challenged.  Support the show

In “Built on Relationships,” Pastor Rodney teaches that the Kingdom of God is relational at its core—calling us to love God and love people. Using Psalm 101 as a blueprint, he shows that healthy relationships are built intentionally through a strong relationship with God, personal integrity, wise daily choices, and carefully choosing the people and influences we allow close to our hearts.

Peter Reeves taught that revival doesn't begin with striving but with a fresh revelation of God's kindness. Using the story of Mephibosheth in 2 Samuel 9, he showed that God's kindness seeks us out in our brokenness, restores what has been lost, and invites us to His table—not because we've earned it, but because of His grace.

Dr. Manny Arango reframes the story of the prodigal son by showing it's just as much about the older brother—those who are in church but have lost the Father's heart for lost people. He challenges believers to move beyond religion and embrace God's mission, joyfully welcoming prodigals home with the same grace the Father has shown us. Listen and be challenged.  Support the show

Faith Cho unpacked Psalm 91:1, teaching that the “secret place” is not merely a moment of prayer but a presence-centered life, intentionally choosing to remain connected to God even when He feels silent or distant. She reminded us that seasons of darkness, mystery, and spiritual dryness do not mean God has abandoned us. Sometimes the shadow is evidence that He is closer than we realize, inviting us into deeper trust, friendship, and revelation of His presence. Listen and be challenged.  Support the show
