A Neo-Monastic Life on Mission - Celebration
In this podcast of The Village Church’s sermons, Pastor Mark continues our series on A Neo-Monastic Life on Mission by reflecting on celebration and why it matters for the people of God. He explores how our culture tends to celebrate, how the Old Testament commands Israel to mark their life with feasts, how Jesus Himself participates in moments of joy, and how all of this points us toward the Wedding Feast of the Lamb. Mark also offers simple and practical ways we can practice celebration as a church community and as individuals.
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.
