2 Corinthians 1:3-11
All right. So we are in a series of unfortunate events, or a series about a series of unfortunate events and I do encourage you to stick around next week and the week after that or at least tune in to the online recordings, and see this series all the way through. Next week we'll be talking about sadness and depression; very exciting. And in two weeks we'll be talking about beauty from the ashes. But today I'm going to be talking about fear, loss, and grief.

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.
