2025/11/11

In this episode of the Iowa City Church Podcast, we continue our Our Church series by focusing on one of the most vital yet often misunderstood spiritual disciplines—repentance. Repentance isn't just a one-time decision to follow Jesus; it's a daily practice of turning our hearts back to Him so that His Spirit can shape us into His likeness. As followers of Jesus, we're called to holiness—a life set apart for God. That transformation happens as we regularly recognize our sin, confess it, and return

Jesus calls us to be sowers of the gospel, but many of us wonder where to start or how to do it naturally.

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

2025/10/21

In this teaching from Iowa City Church we’ll begin learning together how to share the gospel in simple, everyday ways. The first step isn’t complicated—it’s prayer. Before we talk about Jesus with anyone, we can begin by praying for them, asking God to open doors and prepare their hearts. Prayer is something we can all do, and it’s where sharing the good news really begins. To learn more, give a listen to part four of Our Church.

2025/10/20

In this episode, we continue our fall teaching series Our Church, where we’re looking closely at who we are, what we believe, and how we live as a Jesus church in Iowa City. Each week has been about going deeper into what really defines us as God’s people. In this sermon, we’ll talk about one of the most powerful and defining moments in a Christian’s life: baptism.

In this episode of Our Church, we continue exploring what makes the church unique—our purpose, our beliefs, our values, and our mission.

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

Throughout this series, we are taking a closer look at what defines us as a church family and why those things matter. Last week we laid the foundation, and now we’re excited to build on that as we move into part two. This week we’ll be focusing on one of the most important questions for any church: Why is the Bible our primary authority? In a world filled with competing voices, opinions, and influences, we believe that God’s Word provides the truth and guidance we need to shape how we live, how we

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

2025/09/09

In this sermon launch a brand-new series called Our Church, where we’ll explore who we are as a church family, what we value, and the mission God has called us to.

Just like James Clear’s story from Atomic Habits, we will see that lasting transformation doesn’t come from one big moment, but from small, faithful habits practiced consistently. Jesus illustrated this with the parable of the mustard

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

2025/09/02

In this sermon we wrap up our August series, Does God Really Love Me? by talking about something that touches all of us at some point—anxiety. When life feels out of control and the world seems to be falling apart, it’s easy to wonder if God really loves us or if He’s even paying attention. But the good news of Scripture is that nothing can separate us from God’s love in Christ Jesus. His love is steady, faithful, and unshakable—no matter what we face. If you’ve ever felt anxious, overwhelmed, or

2025/08/20

We’ve all been there. At some point in your walk with God, you’ve probably had questions. You’ve probably wondered why prayers seem unanswered, why life feels unfair, or why following Jesus can feel so hard in a world going a different direction. Those moments of doubt can be unsettling — not just because they shake our faith, but because they make us wonder, “Does God still love me if I’m not 100% sure about Him right now?” In This Sermon, we’re going there. We’re taking an honest look at doubt —

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

2025/08/11

With this sermon we kick off a brand new sermon series centered around one of the most common spiritual questions: Does God really love me, even when I’ve done bad things? Many people—Christians included—struggle with feelings of guilt, shame, or inadequacy that distort their view of God’s love. Whether it’s due to religious trauma, performance-based theology, or underdeveloped faith, these barriers can lead people to believe God only loves the “good” version of them.

In this series, we’re discovering that God is still at work in our lives today, even when the path ahead seems unclear or uncomfortable. In this sermon, we

Iowa City Church Podcast ·

2025/07/09

In this episode we continue our sermon series, Summer in the Sand: learning from wilderness journeys in the Bible. For this sermon, our ministry resident Gabe Solis preaches about Israel's wilderness wanderings in the sand as described in the Old Testament book of Exodus. After rescuing Israel from slavery in Egypt, God didn’t lead them straight to the Promised Land—instead, He led them into the wilderness. This was no accident. The wilderness was God's chosen place for transformation, where He

In this episode, we continue our sermon series, Summer in the Sand: learning from wilderness journeys in the Bible. In this edition, we find Moses wandering around the wilderness sand of Midian tending his father-in-law's sheep. While plodding through the sand, far from the power and prestige of Egypt, God called him through a burning bush to lead His people out of slavery. Though Moses felt inadequate and unsure, God assured him that He would be with him and would equip him for the task. In the
