God the Father is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of Israel, and the Church as the Family of God. In holiness, love, and wisdom, He regenerates, cares, provides, guides, teaches, and disciplines His children. (Isaiah 64:8; John 1:12; 3:3,16; 5:26; Matthew 3:17; 5:25-33; 6:9; Romans 8:15; Ephesians 3:14-15; Hebrews 12:5-11; 1 John 3:1-3)

God Our Good Father | Core Podcast Ep. 3
From the fear of the Lord and the holiness of God to the tenderness of “Abba Father,” this new episode of the Core Podcast explores the beautiful tension of a God who is infinitely transcendent yet deeply personal. Pastor Jim, Pastor Luke, and Jackie VanDyke discuss how our earthly experiences shape our view of God, why suffering often distorts our understanding of Him, and how the Father’s heart is fully revealed through Jesus Christ.
In this episode…
- Why what you think about God shapes every part of your life
- The difference between being afraid of God and fearing the Lord
- How our earthly fathers can shape (and sometimes distort) our view of God
- What the prodigal son teaches us about repentance and the Father’s love
- Why the cross is the clearest picture of the Father’s character and love
