When life feels broken… plans in ruins… and hope out of reach — What do you do??
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, we learn from Pastor Monty Simao that that is exactly what God’s people were up against when the prophet Zechariah spoke to them.
Today on the podcast, we start a new study in Zechariah — a book filled with hope, reminders of God’s faithfulness, and a vision for restoration through Christ.
For what we see, in just the opening verses, is that in the midst of their discouragement and unfinished work, God’s message to His people — spoken through Zechariah — was clear:
Over 700 years before Christ, the prophet Isaiah spoke of a Great Light breaking into the darkness — a Child that would bring peace, justice, and restoration to a world weighed down by darkness and despair.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao brings us an advent sermon that explores this stunning prophecy from Isaiah that points us to Jesus, the Messiah.
For Jesus not only fulfills these promises delivered by the prophet nearly 3,000 years ago, but He also transforms our lives this very day.
Join us as we turn the back the clock to 1998 to listen to a Scandia Bible Church “Classic.” In this Classic Sermon, Pastor James Allen concludes our study of the Gospel of John.
“For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.”
— Colossians 1:16
Heaven and earth. Visible and invisible. They’re not just a poetic way of communicating; they’re a powerful way of expressing totality.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow continues with our study in the book of Colossians, where we see Paul masterfully and artistically describe Christ using merisms: a style in which, by contrasting extremes, the communicator is able to more completely express a level of comprehensiveness… of wholeness — from the very ends, to all points in between.
This is critical as Paul lays a necessary foundation about Christ in the first part of his letter to the people of Colossae. It’s a foundation that paints a breathtaking picture of the Lord Jesus Christ’s supremacy and centrality to all of creation.
For he is not just saying that Christ is significant; he is saying that Christ is everything.

And an angel of the Lord appeared to him, in a dream, saying,
“Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
Merry Christmas and welcome to our special Scandia Bible Church Christmas Eve Service for 2024, as we gather and praise the coming of our Lord and Savior with our traditional Lessons and Carols service — a progression of scripture readings, congregational hymns, and instrumental and vocal music from our church family… to remind and retell the story of stories that would forever change the world.
If we can just get beyond the lights, gifts, and celebrations…
What is the true meaning of Christmas??
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, on this Sunday before Christmas, Pastor Monty Simao turns to the book of 1 Timothy where Paul cuts to the heart as to why we celebrate Advent. And he does it with a simple, clear, yet profound, answer to our question.
The true meaning of Christmas is that…
“Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”
— God’s incredible grace and mercy made visible in the coming of Jesus… bringing hope to a broken world.

[Automated Crosswalk Voice]: Walk-sign. On. Follow Christ.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow continues with our study in the book of Colossians in which we learn that the more we learn about Christ… the more we can follow Christ…
…deepening our understanding of His will for our lives… pleasing Him in every respect, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in our knowledge of Him and our gratitude of Him…

What’s the greatest mystery YOU’ve ever uncovered?
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao brings our Romans study to its conclusion in which we see Paul — in its final verses — celebrating the greatest mystery HE’s ever uncovered… the greatest mystery of all time: the gospel of Jesus Christ —hidden for ages, but now revealed.
This good news has the power to strengthen us, unite all peoples, and bring glory to the only wise God.
…Powerful verses about a gospel that transforms lives and glorifies God forever.

In a world full of division and deception, how do we protect the unity of the church?
Cling. Avoid. Trust.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao reaches the next to last sermon in the book of Romans in which Paul issues a warning…
It’s a warning that is timeless and equips us to guard the truth, pursue peace, and live boldly in the hope of Christ’s triumph:
Be vigilant against those who cause strife and distort the truth; CLING to what is good; AVOID what is evil; and TRUST in God’s ultimate victory over Satan.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Deacon David Teves reminds us — though the noise of this world may clamor otherwise — we have no hope in leaders, politicians, or even pastors.
Our only hope is Christ, alone.
Christ is God. Christ is Creator of the universe. Christ is Savior of the world.
No other leader can say that!
The love Christ has for us and the work He has done for us should lead us to hearts of thankfulness and gratitude. It should give us a desire to be in His Word and to seek Him above all else.
For presidents and governors will come and go, but Christ reigns forever.

SBC Host: What about the transformative power of the Gospel?
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Josh Peglow continues with his study in the book of Colossians in which we see Paul lay out an example of a prayer of thankfulness… a prayer thanking God for the spread of the Gospel and it’s transformative power in the lives of His people.

Every single person, every single act of service, matters deeply to God.
This includes you.
— That’s the heart of Paul’s message.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao nears the end of our study in the book of Romans where we find Paul seemingly rolling the credits of acknowledge for the conclusion of his letter.
But upon closer inspection, we discover he is not just listing names, but honoring individuals — teachers, hosts, friends, and those who have worked tirelessly in the background — because it all does matter to God.
God’s vision for the church values every member, every gift, and every quiet labor of love. This isn’t just Paul’s list; it’s a picture of what it means to belong to a family of faith.
