    What if the Parable of the Talents isn’t just about skills or abilities — but about people?

    In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, Pastor Nicole Barnett shares a powerful message from Matthew 25:14–30. This sermon challenges the way we think about discipleship, fear, and what it really means to be faithful with what God has entrusted to us.

    Many Christians are comfortable helping people come to faith — but what happens after that? Nicole explores the difference between making converts and making disciples, and why fear often causes us to “bury” the relationships God has placed in our lives instead of helping them grow.

    This message is especially for listeners who:

    • Want to grow deeper in Christian discipleship
    • Feel afraid of sharing faith or “getting it wrong”
    • Carry church hurt or minister to people who do
    • Desire practical, everyday ways to follow Jesus beyond Sunday mornings

    You’ll hear honest teaching, relatable stories, and a gentle challenge to live as faithful disciple-makers — not perfectly, but faithfully.

    Whether you’re listening on your commute, at the kitchen table, or winding down after a long day, this episode invites you to consider who God has entrusted to you — and how you might take one faithful step toward helping them grow.

    Have you ever said something and immediately wished you could take it back? Or typed a comment, hit “send,” and felt that instant regret?

    In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, Pastor Jason Barnett explores Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 12:33–37 and the powerful connection between our hearts and our words. This message isn’t about policing vocabulary or pretending to be perfect. It’s about understanding why certain reactions slip out when we’re stressed, hurt, or frustrated — and how real transformation begins beneath the surface.

    If you’ve ever struggled with anger, sarcasm, social media arguments, strained relationships, or simply feeling like your words don’t always reflect the person you want to be, this episode is for you. Instead of shame or guilt, you’ll find a hopeful invitation: Jesus doesn’t just correct speech — He heals hearts.

    This conversation is especially meaningful for listeners who want practical Christian encouragement, spiritual growth, and real-life faith that connects to everyday conversations, online interactions, and personal relationships. Whether you’re new to faith, returning to church, or simply searching for peace in the middle of a noisy world, this episode offers grounded biblical insight and a grace-filled path forward.

    Topics Covered:

    • Christian living and communication
    • Faith and personal growth
    • Heart transformation and holiness
    • Words, relationships, and social media
    • Practical application of the Bible in daily life


    Discover how letting God work behind the words can turn reactions into reflections — and bring healing where it matters most.

    What if faith isn’t about having all the answers… but having the humility to turn?

    In this episode of The Dirt Path Sermon Podcast, Pastor Jason Barnett walks through Jonah 3:6–10, a moment in Scripture where an entire city pauses, reflects, and changes direction after hearing a difficult message. Instead of focusing on the famous fish or the storm at sea, this sermon looks at what happens after Jonah finally delivers God’s warning and how an unexpected leader responds with humility rather than defensiveness.

    This message explores repentance not as shame or religious performance, but as an honest change of direction and a hopeful trust in God’s mercy. The word “maybe” becomes a doorway into understanding the difference between entitlement and humility; not doubt about God, but honesty about ourselves.

    If you’ve ever wrestled with church culture, felt burned by rigid religion, or found yourself re-examining what authentic faith actually looks like, this conversation creates space to breathe. There are no pressure tactics here — just a grounded, grace-filled look at Scripture and a reminder that God’s mercy is not fragile.

    Whether you’re listening while driving, walking, or sitting at the kitchen table, this episode offers a thoughtful invitation to slow down, reflect, and consider what it might look like to take one honest step toward a merciful God.
