"Trusting God with the Unknown" - Brittney's Story - God at Work Ep. 34

What happens when one family’s “yes” becomes a lifeline for a child in crisis?

In this moving “God at Work” episode, Pastor Brian sits down with Brittney Yanoviak to share a powerful story of faith, heartbreak, and hope. When Brittney and her family stepped up to help a child through Safe Families, they had no idea how deeply it would change their lives—and the lives of the children involved. Through a series of God-orchestrated connections between Pathway’s food pantry, The Buggy Bunch, and Safe Families, a hurting family found community, support, and the love of Jesus.

This episode is a vivid reminder of what God can do when we simply say “yes.” Whether you’re donating diapers, serving at a pantry, or opening your home, your obedience matters more than you know.

"Bewitched or Blessed" - Digging Deeper Ep. 33

Are You Trying Too Hard to Earn What’s Already Yours?

In this week’s episode of the Pathway Podcast, our team dives deep into what it means to truly live in the freedom Jesus already won for us. Guest John Cranman joins James and Pastor Brian to unpack Sunday’s message, "Bewitched or Blessed," from our Galatians series For Freedom.

You’ll hear honest talk about legalism, anxiety, and the subtle ways we all try to take the wheel from God. We’re exploring why we still feel the need to prove ourselves—even when Jesus said, "It is finished."

If you’ve ever struggled with performance-based faith, this episode will encourage you to rest, trust, and walk in the freedom Christ offers. It’s not about earning. It’s about embracing what’s already been done—for you.

                             For Freedom: “In Christ Alone”                                

15 We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; 16 yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified. 17 But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I rebuild what I tore down, I prove myself to be a transgressor. 19 For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21 I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness were through the law, then Christ died for no purpose.  

- Galatians 2:15-21

 

Next Step Questions: 

1. Are you trying to earn God's favor, and how can you rely more on faith in Jesus for justification?
2. What steps will you take this week to deny yourself and let Christ completely rule your life?
3. How will you show Christ's grace and love in your community? How will you love your plus one this week? Will you live out Organic Outreach?

For Freedom: “A level Playing Field”                 

• The Gospel is grace in action and invites all people to participate. [Galatians 2:1-10; Acts 11:29-30; Acts 15:1-2]
• When we lose sight of the main thing, we lose much more than perspective.
• Love levels the playing field to make sure everyone experiences the freedom Jesus offers. [Galatians 2:11-14; Matthew 7:1-6; Mark 2:1-11]
• Judgmental attitudes tear down people and build walls that protect religion but prevent relationships with Jesus.
• We are to address hypocrisy not to tear down the person but to remove the barriers to Jesus.

 

Next Step Questions:

1. Are there any things that you have added to the Gospel that you need to let go of?

2. Are there any judgmental attitudes that you need to release?

3. What barriers do we need to remove to help others come to experience Jesus?
