The Verdict with Pastor John Munro Podcast

Transforming Shattered Dreams, Pt. 2

Some people view Christianity as an imaginary escape, a religion of rules and rituals to distract from the pains of life. Pastor John Munro helps us see that the Lord Jesus isn’t offering us a religion, but the opportunity for relationship and a completely new life.

Transforming Shattered Dreams, Pt. 1

Have you ever been working towards a dream or a special goal, but just before you reached it, everything fell apart? Broken dreams can be crushing, but sometimes there’s more to see. Pastor John Munro helps us discover that even in the middle of life’s disasters, God has a plan.

AVIZANDUM: Think!

One of the dimensions of being made in the image of God is our ability to reason, though sin has impacted our thinking. Still, followers of Christ are called to be transformed and to have the mind of Christ. But often we allow the viewpoints of the world to shape our perspective.

Following Jesus, Pt. 2

The Christian journey isn’t just paying lip service, thanking God for what He’s done as we continue in our old ways. It’s a journey of change! Pastor John Munro shows that with Christ we have somewhere to go, someone to follow, and something to see.

Following Jesus, Pt. 1

Although many people claim to follow Jesus, far too many of them are just following rules. But faith is far more than a code of conduct. Pastor John Munro shows that Christ is calling us to action, to adventure, and most importantly, He’s calling us to follow Him!

Looking at the Lamb

The Bible gives us all kinds of information on the life of Jesus. But if you want to understand who He is and why He came, there’s one verse that’s a great place to start. Pastor John Munro highlights this special verse from the Gospel of John on the identity and mission of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Being Great, Pt. 2

People often think of greatness as simply having more. The person with more money, more fame, more power is the one we usually call great—but is that really how God measures greatness? Pastor John Munro explains how the biblical model of greatness is actually quite different from our own.

Being Great, Pt. 1

Winston Churchill once said, “Good and great are seldom in the same man.” But the deeper question should be what are the marks of true greatness? Pastor John Munro takes us beyond man’s definition of greatness to find out what God has to say about it.

AVIZANDUM: A Culture of Hate

As we mourn the brutal killings of Iryna Zarutska and Charlie Kirk, why is there all this hate? And how are we to respond and function in what seems to be a growing culture of hate?

Encountering Jesus, Pt. 2

You can know all the Bible history you want, and you can memorize scripture and go to church every day of the week, but if you don’t personally know Jesus, it’s all for naught. Pastor John Munro unpacks what it means to know Jesus personally.
