Encounter Faith Podcast
The Encounter Faith Podcast is the audio platform for all things Good Shepherd Lutheran Church! Every Monday you can catch a replay of the message delivered from our two worship venues. On Wednesdays, we connect with pastors and thought leaders about the conversations that are impacting their communities.

Sermon Replay: 7.20.25 - Pastor Pamela Palmer
Drawing on the biblical antitheses, Pastor Pamela Palmer reminds us that Jesus calls His followers to embody a love so complete that it mirrors God's unconditional grace, urging listeners to bless those who persecute them as an act of profound faith. However, she emphasizes that this journey is not easy—it requires intentionality and often feels impossible, yet it is essential for Christian maturity. In our daily lives, we are challenged to actively pray for those who hurt us, forgive transgressions deliberately, and respond with unexpected kindness. The world is watching, and our actions can testify to the transformative power of divine love. Will you rise to the challenge and let love lead your actions today?
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!
