  • Sermon Replay: 2.1.26 - Ryan Hammer

    Ryan Hammer continues our teaching series around prayer by focusing on Paul and Silas' prayer in the "midnight hour" that we see in Acts 16.

    SHOW NOTES

    The Encounter Faith Podcast is dedicated to creating space to slow down and dive deeper into the critical conversations we’re having every week at Good Shepherd. We fundamentally believe that you cannot encounter the risen Lord unchanged, and through the replays of our Sunday Sermons and conversations with our pastors and community leaders, we are prayerfully pursuing the author and the perfecter of our faith, together.

    We’d love to meet you! Email us, check out our website, and come worship with us!

    We are moving forward in faith. Join us.

    Today’s message was originally delivered on Sunday February 1 in our Activity Center and you can watch it here.

  • Sermon Replay: 2.1.26 - Pastor Pamela Palmer
    Feb 2 2026

    What does prayer look like in our darkest moments? Through the powerful story of Paul and Silas imprisoned in Philippi, Pastor Pamela illuminates how authentic prayer can transform our "midnight hours" - those seasons of deep trial and uncertainty. Drawing from Acts 16, she reveals how these faithful men chose to pray and sing hymns despite being beaten and chained, demonstrating that prayer isn't about denying our pain but deciding where to direct our focus.

  • When Prayer "Doesn't Work" - Max Schiewe
    Jan 28 2026

    Max Schiewe leads the middle school ministry at Good Shepherd and is a current seminary student. Max joins host Ross Cochran to tackle the challenging conversations around how we are meant to respond when our prayers aren't showing the "results" we expect, and how we are called to participate in God's mission of bringing justice into the world today.
