Episodes
2 Peter 1:1-4
July 01, 2020 16:44 - 27.2 MBChanged by His Divine Power There is a subtle lie often promoted in the Church, which says God does the saving and now that we’re saved, we’re responsible for the changing. As we begin a new study in 2nd Peter, the Apostle informs us that God not only saves, but He also changes us by His divine power. Join us as we discover God’s power to change a human life.
1 Peter 5:6-14
June 22, 2020 20:47 - 22.2 MBStaying Spiritually Healthy in Tribulation We end our study in 1 Peter with the Apostle telling us how to endure difficulty without losing faith. This is perhaps the most important lesson that the follower of Christ needs to learn. Join us as we learn how to navigate times where God appears to have failed us.
1 Peter 5:1-5
June 15, 2020 12:23 - 33.9 MBWhat is a Healthy Church? As we arrive at the final chapter of 1st Peter, the Apostle now closes the letter with a description of a healthy church.

Join us as we discover the Bible’s description of a healthy follower of Christ.
1 Peter 4:12-19
June 10, 2020 13:13 - 24.8 MBHow to Glorify God in Times of Difficulty Coming to the final verses of 1st Peter chapter 4, the Apostle Peter closes out the section of the letter that deals with suffering.

1 Peter 4:7-11
May 31, 2020 22:10 - 28.1 MBA Healthy View of the Second Coming of Christ One out of every twenty-five verses in the New Testament refers to Christ’s coming to reign over the world. Clearly the second coming of Christ is to be a central doctrine for the church. However, where our study in 2nd Peter now takes us, is to give us an understanding on how we are to relate to our Lord’s coming so that we might live in a way that honors Him. Join us to see what a healthy perspective of the second coming looks like.
1 Peter 4:1-6
May 24, 2020 14:07 - 25.3 MBBitterness is the Enemy of the Will of God In the beginning of 1 Peter chapter 4, the Apostle Peter is encouraging us to separate ourselves from sin. His readers are going through a difficult season of life and it’s a human tendency to become disappointed with God when He seems not to be answering our prayers. Join us as Peter exhorts us to live holy lives in difficult times.
1 Peter 3:15-22
May 18, 2020 17:41 - 28.8 MBLiving Life in the Face of Unending Pressure The Apostle Peter has told us that we are to respond to persecution and unfairness with right living. We are to stop the mouth of our accusers by living holy lives. Peter now quickly tells us that living a holy life may not stop the harassment. So, here at the end of chapter 3, he tells us what we are to do in the face of unending pressure.
1 Peter 3:8-14
May 14, 2020 23:09 - 21.8 MBIngredients for a Wonderful Life Every human being who is mentally well-adjusted longs to have a wonderful life.

1 Peter 3:8
May 14, 2020 23:09Ingredients for a Wonderful Life Every human being who is mentally well-adjusted longs to have a wonderful life. What makes the next section that we come to in our study of 1st Peter so interesting is the Apostle Peter will tell us how we can experience a wonderful life.

1 Peter 3:7
May 04, 2020 17:43 - 20.7 MBWhen Unfairness Hits Our Marriages - Part 2 The Apostle Peter is giving us simple commands for how to respond when life hands us unfairness.

1 Peter 3:1-6
April 27, 2020 16:14 - 28.8 MBWhen Unfairness Hits Our Marriages The Apostle Peter has told us that our calling as the followers of Christ is to suffer injustice and unfairness.

The Credibility of the Resurrection Story
April 13, 2020 14:09 - 20.5 MBThe Credibility of the Resurrection Story The Story of the Resurrection is absolutely central to the Gospel. Without believing it, one doesn’t possess salvation. The Apostle Paul tells us in Romans 10, “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Both belief in Christ’s Lordship and Resurrection are necessary for salvation. But can we have confidence that the story is true? Join us as we look at the r...
Why Not Rather Be Wronged?
April 07, 2020 03:24 - 26.7 MBWhy Not Rather Be Wronged? We have been reconciled to God and given new life through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. How does the fact God did everything to initiate reconciliation with us affect the way we pursue reconciliation when conflicts occur in the Body of Christ? Do we pursue justice, rights, or something altogether different?
Be Reconciled to God
March 31, 2020 18:31 - 22.7 MBBe Reconciled to God God took the initiative to pursue reconciliation with us when He sent Jesus Christ as an ambassador to pay the penalty for our sin. More than that, He rose from the dead to give us new life and the opportunity to serve Him as ambassadors of reconciliation in a world drowning in conflict. This message from 2 Corinthians 5:11-6:2 encourages us to remember that as citizens of God's kingdom, we are called to respond to conflict in a radically different way ... a way that lea...
1 Peter 2:16-25
March 24, 2020 01:30 - 25 MBWhen Life Isn’t Fair As we move to the final verses of 1 Peter chapter 2, the Apostle is dealing with injustice. It is in these verses that we learn that every follower of Christ has the same calling. That calling is that we are to handle injustice the very same way that Christ handled it. Join us as we look at the impossible path that every disciple is called to walk upon.
1 Peter 2:11-15
March 19, 2020 13:52 - 20.8 MBHow to Respond When Being Lied About? The Apostle Peter is writing to believers who were victims of an orchestrated disinformation campaign, being waged by the Roman government. When lies are being told about us, anger is our natural response. However, Peter encourages us to go in a completely different direction. Join us in our study of 1 Peter chapter 2, as we look into the Biblical response to slander.
Deuteronomy 8
March 15, 2020 12:10 - 24.9 MBA study in Deuteronomy 8 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
1 Peter 2:1-10
March 11, 2020 23:50 - 25.7 MBTraits Seen in the Family of God Every family has certain traits, both physical and emotional. When looking at the family of God, there will be certain behavioral traits on display. As we begin chapter two of 1 Peter, we will discover there are certain expectations for those that claim that they have been born again. Join us as we discover what should be on display in our lives if we claim faith in Christ.
1 Peter 1:18-25
March 04, 2020 02:30Motivation for Being Faithful It’s a common trait to want to take the path of least resistance. For the original recipients of Peter’s first letter, the path of least resistance was to pull back on their commitment to Christ. To encourage these early followers of Christ, Peter lays out at the end of chapter one some strong motivation to be faithful. Join us as we seek to be motivated in our walk with Christ.
Deuteronomy 7
March 04, 2020 02:12A study in Deuteronomy 7 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
1 Peter 1:13-17
February 25, 2020 02:39Our Response To The Lord’s Work As we move forward in 1 Peter, we transition from what God has promised, to what we do in response of His wonderful work. Great and glorious things await the believer. But as we spend our time in this life for now, what does God require? Join us as we discover the three response we are to give in light of what God has given to us.
Deuteronomy 6
February 22, 2020 23:19A study in Deuteronomy 6 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
1 Peter 1:7-12
February 19, 2020 14:16The Result of Trials Trials can seem both haphazard and pointless. However, what we find in our current study of 1 Peter is that they are used of God to produce tremendous results. Peter informs us that what God is doing in our trials is securing for us, a blessed future. Join us as we look at the value of our faith being tried.
Deuteronomy 5
February 15, 2020 17:14A study in Deuteronomy 5 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
1 Peter 1:3-6
February 11, 2020 02:15A Change of Perspective Stress has a way of distorting our outlook on life. Pain, anxiety, and disappointment can cause us to see hopelessness in all directions. In our study of 1 Peter, the Apostle speaks a word of hope to the disciples of Christ who find themselves facing great challenges to their faith. Join us in our study as Peter lays out for us what is to be the disciple’s perspective on life.
1 Peter 1:2
February 04, 2020 19:32The Central Dogma of Christianity In Church life we find many things that we can disagree on that are not central to the Faith. In such cases, we agree to disagree, and we continue to love one another and pray for each other. However, as we focus on 1 Peter chapter one once again, we come to a theological issue that we must never compromise on. Join us as we look at what is absolutely central to our Faith.
Deuteronomy 4:9-49
January 31, 2020 16:11A study in Deuteronomy 4:9-49 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
1 Peter 1:1-2
January 28, 2020 00:36Having Hope in a Hostile World As we begin our study in 1 Peter, the Apostle is writing to those who have experienced suffering. When suffering comes we often times lose our perspective on who we are. Join us as we are reminded who we are in Christ.
Deuteronomy 3:1-4:8
January 25, 2020 21:04A study in Deuteronomy 3:1-4:8 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
James 5:13-20
January 22, 2020 11:12Authenticity Part 2 We close out our study in James with James giving the final word on authentic Christianity. This section of Scripture provides with a clear understanding of what the lifestyle of a Biblical follower of Christ is going to look like. Last time, we saw James tell the first two markers of authenticity were endurance and a commitment to keep one’s word. Join us now as see what the final two markers are.
Deuteronomy 2
January 21, 2020 21:44A study in Deuteronomy 2 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
James 5:10-12
January 16, 2020 00:51Authentic Christianity Counterfeit faith can have dire consequences. Coming near the end of our study in the book of James, the author now lays out markers that indicate what authentic faith in Christ will produce in our lives. Join us as we seek to discover if our faith is authentic or if it’s a cheap imitation.
Sufficiency
January 10, 2020 21:002 Kings 4:1-7 God will not always keep us from experiencing deep pain and loss but, if we are willing to turn to Him during these dark and uncertain times, we will eventually discover His all-sufficient grace and power to bring life and renewal. In 2 Kings 4:1-7, we are reminded that there is provision that can only be reached by an all-powerful, deeply loving God. And this divine provision is ultimately realized in the person and finished work of Jesus Christ.
Walking Circumspectly in 2020
December 31, 2019 02:32How to Live in Evil Days As we head into the beginning of a new year, we see new challenges facing the Church. If we’ll take a moment and be honest with ourselves, we’ll have to admit that the Church is no longer impacting the culture around us. Signs are all around us are indicating that something has seriously gone wrong. Join us as we seek to find insight from Ephesians chapter 5 on how we are to meet the challenges we now face as we enter 2020.
Christmas 2019
December 23, 2019 14:47The Christ Child is the Revealer of Hearts Matthew chapter two gives us the three reactions to the Christ Child that was on display in first century Israel. Every human being throughout history, even up to the very day that we’re living, can be placed into one of these three categories. Which one of these three do you fit in? Join us as we look at how our reaction to the Christ Child reveals what is in our hearts.
James 5:1-9
December 16, 2019 13:51Is Having Great Wealth a Sin? Arriving at chapter five of the book of James we come to the subject of wealth. The American culture now seems to be turning on the rich. It now appears to the average American that having wealth amounts to being guilty of the unforgivable sin. What seems to be the chief concern to James is not having wealth, but how did you come to posses your wealth and now that you have it what are you doing with it? Join us in the opening verses of chapter five as we seek to ...

James 4:1-6
November 18, 2019 16:17Worship Wars Arriving at chapter four of the book of James, we are given the cause and the cure for divisions that take place among God’s people. The path that James lays out for us is a difficult one. But James reassures us that if we’ll do things God’s way, grace will be given so that we may do God’s will.
Numbers 32-33
November 18, 2019 14:58A study in Numbers 32-33 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
James 3:13-18
November 11, 2019 15:10Divine Wisdom verses Demonic Wisdom Deception is always a clear and present danger for the Church. It’s possible to be under the assumption that you’re following God, when in reality you’re headed in the opposite direction. Join us in James chapter three as James lays out what a life looks like that is dominated by God’s wisdom and what demonic wisdom will look like in a person’s life.
James 3:1-12
November 05, 2019 11:22Taming the Untamable Living faith, that is faith that produces life in us, is active and life changing. Coming to the third chapter of James, we now discover that there is something in us that no one can control. However, once this living faith is activated in our lives, it can control the uncontrollable in us. Join as we look at both our enemy and our ally in this important struggle.
Numbers 30-31
October 31, 2019 17:00A study in Numbers 30-31 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery. For more information about Harvest, please visit: https://harvestfellowship.com
James 2:14-26
October 29, 2019 02:41Dead Faith verses Living Faith Many misunderstand what James is putting forth at the end of chapter 2. Some see a contradiction between what James says here and what the Apostle Paul has told us earlier in the New Testament. James is not pitting works against faith as an either or choice. But rather he is comparing two different kinds of faith. One kills and one makes alive. Which faith do you possess? Join us this week and allow the Word of God to reveal to you whether you are spiritually a...
Numbers 27-29
October 24, 2019 18:20A study in Numbers 27-29 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
James 1:27 - 2:13
October 21, 2019 21:54The Effects of an Encounter with God When a life has had an encounter with God, that life will forever be altered. We can say that we’ve had an experience with God, however just saying it doesn’t make it so. James does us a great service by showing us five effects that will be seen in the life of someone who has met God. Join us as we continue in our verse by verse study in the book of James.
Numbers 25-26
October 21, 2019 21:52A study in Numbers 25-26 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
James 1:19-27
October 17, 2019 11:05The Effects Seen When a Heart Has Been Changed James is laying out the difference between a cultural follower of Christ and an authentic follower of Christ. The difference between the two has nothing to do with where they might find themselves on a Sunday morning. James tells us that where the changed heart will first show itself, is not what a person is doing on a Sunday, but what a person is doing with his or her mouth. Join us as James clearly lays out how a spiritual person lives.
Numbers 23-24
October 10, 2019 02:00A study in Numbers 23-24 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.
