  • Obedience Is Freedom: Trading Control for a New Heart

    Obedience Is Freedom: Trading Control for a New Heart
    Oct 24 2025
    In this episode of Bringing Hope and Freedom, Pastor Kirk and Holly unpack a powerful and often misunderstood topic — obedience. Holly shares her personal story of growing up in a broken home marked by alcoholism and confusion — and how for years she believed obedience to God meant losing joy or becoming restricted. But through encountering Jesus, she discovered the opposite: real obedience is not control — it’s freedom, healing, and a new heart. Pastor Kirk explains the difference between compliance (do what I say or else) and true biblical obedience (a desire birthed from love). They also explore:
    • Why many people unknowingly live in spiritual bondage thinking it’s freedom
    • The impact of generational brokenness and stepping away from toxic environments
    • How God doesn’t need to control you — He wants to heal you
    • The beauty of God giving you a new heart, new desires, and new life
    • Obedience as a get-to, not a have-to
    If you’ve ever wrestled with shame, control, religion, or feeling “not good enough for God” — this conversation will bring clarity, compassion, and real hope.

    By His Wounds: Healing, Forgiveness, and the Power of the Cross
    Oct 1 2025
    In this episode of Bringing Hope and Freedom, Pastor Kirk and Matt unpack a powerful question: What does it really mean that “by His wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53, 1 Peter 2:24)?
    Is healing found in the beating Jesus endured, or in His death and resurrection? Together, they dive into the significance of Christ’s suffering—His rejection, ridicule, crucifixion, and resurrection—and why all of it matters for our salvation and healing. Pastor Kirk also shares real-life testimonies from church services, where people have experienced miraculous healings, reminding us that Jesus not only saves but still heals today. The conversation also challenges common misconceptions about prayer, forgiveness, and the role every believer has in building God’s Kingdom.

    📖 Key Topics:
    • What “by His stripes we are healed” really means
    • Why Jesus endured suffering, death, and resurrection
    • How the cross represents the penalty of sin
    • Real testimonies of healing in church today
    • Why every believer is called to pray and minister
    • The danger of pride, control, and building our own kingdoms
    This episode is both a theological deep dive and a practical encouragement—pointing us back to the hope, forgiveness, and power we have in Jesus Christ.

    Sep 24 2025
    In this episode of Bringing Hope and Freedom, Pastor Kirk sits down with Holly for a Q&A on a timely and difficult topic: natural disasters.

Together, Pastor Kirk and Holly unpack these big questions, looking at what Scripture says about creation groaning, the impact of sin on the world, and the hope we have in Jesus Christ. They also dive into what it means to live with faith in the end times—not predicting dates, but living every day as if Christ could return tomorrow.
