Summer Blast Weekend 2026
4d ago00:26:16Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | June 21, 2025 | Dion GarrettWhat is the Kingdom anyway?The Kingdom of God was Jesus's most talked-about topic, but it looks nothing like the castles, crowns, and conquest we might imagine. It's not a nation-state, a political movement, or even the afterlife — it's something far more personal and immediate. Jesus himself is the Kingdom, and according to Luke 17, it's already "in your midst," freely available right now. So why do so many of us who believe in Jesus never truly experience it? What did Jesus mean when he talked about the Kingdom of God — and is it something you can actually experience today?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | The Right Kind of Purity | 6
2w ago00:39:16Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | June 14, 2026 | Doug MaussIt’s good to have a sense of the sacred. Some things are holy and their purity should be maintained. But with too much an emphasis on purity, you end up with constant “moral panics” about the corrupting influence of the world. Too little purity, and human dignity itself becomes trampled in the mud of “anything goes”. How do we find the right balance?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | The Right Kind of Fairness | 5
3w ago00:33:08Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | June 7, 2026 | AJ MasticWe have an innate sense that life should be fair. And certainly, if we have a just God, then he should enforce fairness. But how do we define what’s truly “fair,” considering all possible factors?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | The Right Kind of Liberty | 4
4w ago00:30:56Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | May 31, 2026 | Dion GarrettAs a nation, founded on liberty, freedom ranks high(est) in Americans’ values. But how much freedom is a good thing? Can too much freedom cause harm to ourselves and others?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | The Right Kind of Care | 3
May 2400:36:20Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | May 24, 2026 | Doug MaussWe all know we should care for others. But how much, exactly? Are someone else’s bad circumstances my problem, or their own fault? Too much care, and we become martyrs. Too little care and we become misers.

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | The Right Kind of Authority | 2
May 1700:29:39Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | May 17, 2026 | Dion GarrettPeople being under authority is a gift of God, to establish and maintain order. But what kind of authority is holy, and what level of obedience do Christians owe to unjust authorities? Giving too much power to authorities results in fascism; too little results in anarchy. How can Christians know when to submit to authority and when to hold authority accountable?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Straight Truth for a Crooked World | Power | 1
May 1000:37:30Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | May 10, 2026 | AJ MasticLoyalty is important. It’s what binds groups together. But too much loyalty can lead us to tolerate or excuse immoral behavior from our in-group, while magnifying the flaws of outsiders. At its most extreme, loyalty creates cults. On the other hand, too little loyalty prevents us from forming bonds of safety and trust. It can lead to individualism and self-centeredness.

Fool's Gold | Beauty | 5
May 300:33:33Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | May 3, 2026 | Dion GarrettMany of us draw a sense of confidence from looking good. We shop for the right clothes and cosmetics, we perfect our poses and posts, and we collect things of beauty around us. When does it cross a line and become vanity? What if we’re not showing people more of our true beauty, but covering it up?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Message | Fool's Gold | Power | 4
Apr 2600:41:13Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | April 26, 2026 | Doug MaussIn a chaotic world, the ability to call the shots and exert a measure of control over our lives is solid gold. We hardly ever turn down a promotion or the chance at more influence, but have you ever noticed that those who gain power tend to lose part of their souls in the process?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | http://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.orgWebsite | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org

Fool's Gold | Safety | 3
Apr 1900:34:01Tap to summarizePathfinder Church | April 19, 2026 | Dion GarrettWe have a deep human need to feel physically and emotionally safe. As safety has become the top priority in our culture, we have become very risk-averse; stockpiling resources, and building our safety nets. Butif you take all of the risk out of life, you also remove the adventure, and then what are we left with?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathfinderstl.org/podcastsFacebook | https://facebook.com/pathfinderstlInstagram | https://instagram.com/pathfinderstlSt. John School | https://stjls.orgContact Us | churchinfo@pathfinderstl.org
