As 2023 concludes, Pastor Mark delivers a succinct message regarding the Village Church's annual tradition of 20 prayers. He extends a heartfelt invitation to the entire congregation, urging each member to pen 20 prayers for the upcoming year 2024. The allocation is as follows: five prayers dedicated to personal growth, five for family blessings, five for the church community's wellbeing, and five for the neighborhood, city, or the world. Pastor Mark encourages everyone to not only write these prayers but also to commit to praying them consistently throughout the year.
The Village Church’s sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God’s work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God’s kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose.
Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.
