The Verdict with Pastor John Munro Podcast

In our fallen state, all of us are naturally rebellious. Selfishness, self-indulgence, and self-autonomy are central--we want to make our own rules. But humility and submission are to be central in the lives of followers of Christ.

The King is Alive, Pt. 1

You may have heard the saying, “Where there’s life, there’s hope”, but followers of Jesus Christ can say, “Where there’s death, there’s hope.” Because our Lord Jesus has conquered death, our hope extends beyond the grave. On this episode of The Verdict, Pastor John Munro reflects on this magnificent truth as we celebrate our risen Savior.

Finished

In His last moments on the cross, Jesus cried out “It is finished.” On special Good Friday edition of The Verdict, we remember the suffering of our Savior and understand the completion of His perfect work of salvation.

Alive Forevermore, Pt. 2

Alive Forevermore, Pt. 1

The Christian faith does not merely claim that Jesus Christ lived 2,000 years ago—we believe that Jesus is alive today. Though He was crucified on a cross and buried in a tomb, Jesus rose from the dead and is alive forevermore! And this changes everything. On this episode of The Verdict, Pastor John Munro discusses what the resurrection of Christ means for our lives today.

We Believe Jesus Died and Rose Again, Pt. 1

At the very heart of the Christian faith, we believe that our Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross, was buried, and rose from the grave on the third day according to the Scriptures.

Today, Pastor John Munro helps us examine the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Next Steps: Knowing God’s Will, Pt. 2

When we live for ourselves, we’re forced to rely upon our own strengths and our own plans—which are never perfect. But when we seek first the glory of God, we’re given the guidance and assurance of His perfect will. Today on The Verdict, Pastor John Munro concludes our study on the Next Steps in Following Christ by learning how to know God’s will.
