Plum Creek Church: Podcast
We’re a local church that wants to follow the way of Jesus in simple and practical ways. We love people wherever they are on their spiritual journey and believe that if Jesus was right about God, life, and the soul, then it only makes sense to rearrange our lives around what he says is true.
That way of life is then filtered through our values:
Live Like Jesus
Live Life Together
Live Irrationally Generous
Live Contributing
These hallmarks of a changed life provide the needed target our God-sized vision requires.
That’s why our vision of seeing changed lives, changing lives is so important to us—because when you choose to follow Jesus like this, it really does change everything.

Plum Creek Church: Podcast
Is next really now, or are you still saying not yet? /// Next Is Now: Part 2
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We're so glad you've chosen to listen to our online experience! Here at Plum Creek, we’re all about changed lives, changing lives; and what that simply means is that what Christ has done in us is not just for us, but it’s for us to share with others in our community and around the world.

If you're using this teaching for a Home Groups setting, we've included discussion prompts to help guide your conversation:
1. The teaching emphasized that faith trusts God before outcomes are clear, so where in your life are you tempted to wait for certainty before obeying and what might it look like to trust God in that situation right now?
2. Reflect on the story of Sarah and consider a time when you felt limited by your capacity or season of life (finances, energy, time, or ability) and discuss how focusing on God’s faithfulness could shift your perspective.
3. Look up Hebrews 11:1 and Hebrews 11:7 and talk about how Noah’s obedience without visible confirmation challenges common cultural ideas about planning, control, and risk.
4. The message described faith as choosing relationship with God over guaranteed results, so share an experience where obedience to God did not lead to the outcome you hoped for but still shaped your faith or character.
5. The church is being invited into a season described as Next is Now, so discuss what it means personally and collectively to hold resources, time, and opportunities with open hands while trusting God to multiply what is surrendered.
