Paul says to shine, we need joy… so joy is what we study today. Paul wrote to the Philippians from the grimmest of circumstances - in jail, facing death, brutally beaten, and yet his letter was filled with calls to rejoice. How could that be? Paul se... more

Paul tells the Philippians: “Only let us live up to what we have already attained.” John takes this personally and asks: “What do I actually know to be true?” He names five convictions — life is good, I ought to pursue the good, despair is wrong, I n... more

  • Truly a blessing

    This podcast is a big part of my daily spiritual development - and that of a handful of close family and friends too. John, you have no idea how much you are shaping me in my walk with Christ. God has worked through you - in your message - many days to reach, guide, and encourage me. Thank you for doing what you do - for sharing such wisdom and vulnerability to bless others. I attended MPPC for a few years over a decade ago, before moving, and while it was a blessing to learn from you there,... more

  • Thank you, John

    Every time I open this podcast it blesses me. John often makes me smile or even laugh. Often I wipe a tear from my eyes, but I always feel God’s presence and love radiating from John.

  • Whoopee!!!

    According to Google, Whoopee is defined as “expressing wild excitement or joy,” and I cannot help but share that sentiment while encouraging you to engage with this podcast. My favorite amongst all the series is the one on Forgiveness. It is a tangible way for me to forgive and be a more forgiving person in general. I have found all of the series to be helpful in following Jesus in my day-to-day. Worth it.
