Pathfinder Church | May 19, 2024 | Dion GarrettPeople read the Bible in all sorts of different ways, so how are we supposed to make sense of it? We do our best to let it guide the lives that we construct, but what if we’re emphasizing the wrong things? Is there a way to know we’re reading scripture the right way?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfin

Pathfinder Church | May 12, 2024 | Doug MaussOur earliest complaint as children, and our enduring value as adults, is that life should be fair. Everyone should get what they deserve. But is perfect fairness the highest good, is there something even better—something we all wish we had instead?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts

Pathfinder Church | May 5, 2024 | AJ MasticIt’s really nice to have comfortable things! A nice house, a quality car, constant access to the internet and our phones. The messaging of our culture says that comfort should be our ultimate goal—but is there something even better?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Giving | https://pathfinderstl.org/givePodcasts | https://pathf

Pathfinder Church | April 28, 2024 | Doug Mauss“Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.” Our culture honors a good work ethic. It’s right to be diligent and work hard at what we do. And yet, this busy-ness becomes a taskmaster, demanding that we keep up the pace, in order to earn the good things in life.Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgOnline Gi

Pathfinder Church | April 21, 2024 | Dion GarrettThere are certain assets in life that obviously help smooth out our paths: money, power, resources, and talent. These are the powerful levers that help us feel secure in life. But the quest for security comes with costs, both for ourself and others. What is the better dream God would have us rely on?Website | https://pathfinderstl.or

Pathfinder Church | April 14, 2024 | AJ MasticIt’s so good to be free. To be in control of your own life. To not have to do what anyone else tells you to do. And we often try to build a life that only depends on our own ability to be successful. But at what point does the “self-made” man need a little help? When does individualism begin to limit us?Website | https://pathfinde

Pathfinder Church | April 7, 2024 | Doug MaussBeing “unique” is a tricky dance. On the one hand, many of us would love to have extraordinary lives. On the other hand, very few of us want to be considered weird. How do we find a balance between making our mark and sticking out from the crowd, but also fitting in with the people you care about?Website | https://pathfinderstl.orgO

Pathfinder Church | March 31, 2024 | Dion GarrettWhat’s Better than Getting our Dreams?All of us have dreams for our lives, whether they be big or small. But dreams are tricky things. On the one hand, missing out on the life we’ve always wanted can lead to despair. On the other hand, as championship athletes can attest, succeeding at our dreams doesn’t necessarily bring life

Pathfinder Church | March 24, 2024 | AJ MasticWhen someone is suffering, it feels right to try to join them in their suffering, to somehow stand with them. But lately the offering of “thoughts and prayers” to someone in a hardship has come to be seen as an empty and patronizing sentiment. But should those two things be linked, “thoughts and prayers?” What might prayer be ab

Pathfinder Church | March 17, 2024 | Doug MaussWe all want guidance. We need it! Life is too confusing to navigate on our own. Some people have tried to find guidance looking to the stars and other heavenly bodies. Others have tried to interpret the meaning of various “signs from the universe.” But even if those entities were offering guidance, how do we know their counsel is t
