MZBC:The Podcast: Recent Episodes
Russell Naquin
Thanks for joining us! We took some time to reread the Creation story. A story many of us are familiar with and have heard since we were kids. As we read, we discovered there are a few things that our finite minds have a hard time processing, maybe it's just us, lol! We hope you enjoy!
Thanks for joining us! Emmanuel is back with us after the passing of his father Randall Griffin Sr. He shares about God's provision and sufficiency during this difficult time. We recap the last couple of weeks at MZBC and Sandy shares about the strength of a mom in the face of uncertainty. Hence the title, God is GOOD! We hope you are encouraged!
We are joined this episode by our friend & MZBC member Esther Hamilton. In our first "Legacy Talk" we get some insight into what a life of Faith and Passion looks like. We pray you are blessed by the wisdom and life experiences shared!
Thanks for joining us! Today our discussion was about the calling to holiness and proclaiming the Gospel. Asking ourselves, does the message get annoying after a while...or does going in "love" cover us? Does disappointing God make us feel worse than making God angry with us? Does the shepherd ever get disappointed in the sheep?
Not sure we answered any of them completely, but the discussion was fun.
A brief discussion about Easter. We learned some things and shared some memories. We hope you enjoy. Join us Friday night for our Good Friday service at 6:30pm and Sunday as we celebrate the Resurrection at 10:45am!
We are joined by friend and partner in ministry, John Ly to discuss the heart of outreach. The call to serve Jesus. As well as the idea that it has to be all about Jesus all the time. We pray this encourages you!
It is not always flashy, but in the long run it is more than worth it! God uses the mundane and simple to do His work through us. We're called to keep going!

We sit down with one of Mt. Zion's ministry partners Daryle Smith. Daryle is the Area Director for Fellowship of Christian Athletes in Clayton and Spalding Counties.
