Heirloom Church Podcast

Life rarely slows down. Decisions come, demands pile up, grief weighs on us, and obedience can feel costly. Yet through every pressure Jesus faced, one thing remained constant: He went to the Father.
In this message, Cy Calhoun walks through four moments from the life of Jesus that reveal this pattern: before a major decision, in the middle of overwhelming busyness, under the weight of grief, and when obedience meant walking toward the cross.
 
But Jesus is more than an example for us to follow. He is our Savior. Jesus did what we could never do, surrendering to the Father's will and going to the cross so that we could be brought near to God.
Whatever you're carrying today, the invitation is simple: go to the Father.

What God has done among us is too good to end with us.
As Heirloom Church celebrates two years, Pastor Dakota Adair walks through Psalm 78:1–8 and reminds us that faith was never meant to stop with one generation. We look back to remember God’s faithfulness, look around to consider who we are called to reach and disciple, and look ahead with hope for the generations we may never meet.
Psalm 78 calls us to remember what God has done, tell the story to those coming after us, and set our hope in Him. The greatest heirloom we could ever hand the next generation isn’t a church. It’s the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Generation to generation, the baton is in our hands. So let’s run.

Fear is something every one of us faces, but it doesn’t have to determine how we live. In this message, Pastor Dakota Adair walks through 2 Timothy 1:6–12 and reminds us that God has given us power, love, and a sound mind. Discover how faith helps us remember who God is, trust His character, and move forward with courage even when fear is present.

As we continue our Family Matters series, Pastor Cy Calhoun walks us through 1 Corinthians 7 and challenges the way we think about singleness, marriage, and the season God has placed us in. Our lives are not on hold while we wait for something else to happen. Both singleness and marriage are gifts, and the goal for all of us is an undivided heart devoted to Jesus. Whether you’re single, married, or somewhere in between, this message invites us to hold the gifts of this life loosely and live fully for the Lord right where we are.

Family is a wonderful gift, but family makes a terrible god. In this message from Family Matters, we explore what our families are actually for and what happens when we put Jesus first. Discover how loving Jesus most frees us to love our families better, raise our children with open hands, and build homes that become launching pads for the Kingdom of God.

In Week 3 of Family Matters, Jamie and Corey Schwarz join Pastor Dakota for an honest conversation about gospel centered parenting. Discover how parenting is less about raising perfect kids and more about pointing little hearts to Jesus through grace, repentance, dependence on God, and a life that reflects the gospel.

Marriage was never meant to be merely about happiness or achieving our goals. In Week 2 of Family Matters, Dakota Adair walks through Ephesians 5:21–33 to show how marriage is ultimately designed to reflect Christ’s sacrificial love and display the glory of God. When things get hard, we can stop looking for a way out and start looking for a way through.

What does it really mean to "act like a man"? In Week 1 of our Family Matters series, we return to God's original design in Genesis to discover biblical manhood. This message challenges the cultural confusion surrounding masculinity and calls men to reject passivity, accept responsibility, lead courageously, and live for eternity. Ultimately, we'll see that becoming the man God created you to be isn't about trying harder—it's about following the Better Adam, Jesus Christ.

What kind of church are we becoming?
In Through the Roof (Mark 2:1–12), we're challenged to become the kind of church that refuses to let comfort get in the way of the mission. Looking at the faith of four friends who did whatever it took to get a paralyzed man to Jesus, we're reminded of three commitments that will shape our future: we won't be the barrier, we'll carry people to Jesus, and we'll trust Jesus to change lives. Because every invitation, every act of service, and every sacrifice helps someone find a better story in Christ.

We often think we're stronger than we are, but Jesus teaches us to pray from a place of dependence. In the final message of our How to Pray series, we explore what it means to ask God, "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Discover how to recognize the enemy, be honest about your own weakness, and find confidence in the Savior who has already won the victory.
