1 |
CleanUncommon Kids | Rick O highlights our church priority to focus on kids and youth. This can be an uncommon generation; a generation that follows Christ. God has created them with a divine spark and unique characteristics. Uncommon parents attempt to learn who their kids are instead of placing expectations and judgements. | 2/5/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

2 |
CleanUncommon Character | Rick O calls us to live with uncommon character. Do circumstances build character or reveal it? Yes! Character is about choices, good and bad, God's way our our way. In life, we don't know what awaits us, but we do know that God is with us. Let's let him chisel us into his image! | 1/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanUncommon Life | Rick K invites us to live the uncommon life God has for us. We're hand-picked to have a special connection to the Father, the source of life. We're set apart to be holy! Life in God's kingdom might look peculiar, but putting God first in regard to sex, money and power is naturally counter-culture. | 1/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
4 |
CleanAffluenza | Rick K explains that an underlying problem in our society is actually a disease: affluenza, our obsession with material gain. What can we do about it? Be content and trust God to meet our needs! We must learn to live in simplicity, so we have margin. Margin in our lives allows us to be generous. | 1/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
5 |
CleanRelease: Empowering a Generation | Rick O believes that God is using kids in special ways. The Bible is filled with stories of God using kids to accomplish BIG things. Kids have so much to contribute, but often lack adults who believe in them. The time for this generation is today. Let's support them and see what God will do! | 12/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
6 |
CleanRoot: Not Losing Even One | Rick O doesn't want to see the church lose the next generation. Our kids are under siege from Satan—they need a biblical worldview and authentic faith to fight back. We can help them... By demonstrating integrity. By encouring our kids. By making church a priority. By being involved in our kids lives. | 12/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
7 |
CleanReach: Understanding God's Heart for Kids | Becky shares her passion for the Vineyard to be a place that's known for its heart for kids. Their hearts and minds are still open! Kids are a gift from God and, together, we can lead kids to participate in his kingdom right now in our church and in our community. | 12/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
8 |
CleanRescue a Generation at Risk | Rick O takes a sobering look at the realities our kids face these days. Every kid is at risk... and Jesus speaks quite strongly on behalf of kids. Many members of our church are already doing so much both locally and around the world. Let's join them! | 11/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanFor Such a Time as This | Rick O launches our new series, Ignite, by telling the story of how God has revealed to him (through multiple fascinating experiences) a vision for the future of our church: a movement to invest in the youngest generation. Kids and teens need us! And we need them, too. | 11/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
10 |
CleanCharisma, Anyone? | Rick K shares the last piece of our series. As we pray for others right now, we often need something extra. The Holy Spirit offers it to us: gifts. These gifts are supernatural tools for us to humbly use for one another. Want a gift? Ask the Holy Spirit to give it to you! | 11/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
11 |
CleanWhen the Spirit Comes in Power | Rick O challenges us with a question: When the Spirit comes in power, what does it look like? It's different every time! No matter what it looks like, though, we're changed. Strongholds and addictions are broken and we become more like Jesus. God has promised his Spirit to us… Let's be filled. | 11/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
12 |
CleanNaturally Supernatural | Guest speaker Gary Best shares that Christianity isn't just accepting Christ into our heart. Jesus says, “follow me,” and he means it. The Bible is a lot more interesting when we're not just reading amazing stories, but doing it ourselves, too. It's simple: listen to the Father and obey. | 10/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
13 |
CleanThe Ministry of Jesus | Rick O puts it frankly: if we want to pray, we should learn from the best... Jesus! Although Jesus used various patterns and methods, there are several principles in his works. But there's no formula. The Jesus way is to simply listen to God's voice and obey through the crazy! | 10/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
14 |
CleanJoining God in His Work | Rick O begins a new series, God May Be Closer Than You Think. God's kingdom isn't just for after we die, but forcefully advancing in our world today. Often, our worldview and unbelief keep us from experiencing this reality. But everything can change with seven simple words: can I pray for you right now? | 10/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
15 |
CleanThe Rest App | Rick O takes a look at the way we live our lives. It's unsustainable! And life even seems to be speeding up. When Elijah found himself at the end of his rope, where life had caught up to him, what was God's pep talk? "Go rest!" God wants us to take advantage of this under-appreciated spiritual discipline. | 9/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
16 |
CleanThe Trust App | Rick O reiterates to us that application is everything. Trust, the Bible says, springs from love. Love always gives the benefit of the doubt, allows for the most generous explanation for other's behavior and chooses against suspicion. But who can you trust? You'll never know untill you trust them! | 9/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
17 |
CleanThe Forgiveness App | Rick K poses a question: does forgiving someone mean he or she gets away with it? If not, why does it feel so good to hold a grudge? Jesus' death on the cross was powerful—it teaches us to release the grip of our grudges and embrace God's forgiveness. | 9/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
18 |
CleanWhy We Do What We Do | Rick O talks about the "how" of worship. We should be real and authentic as we approach God. But in our freedom, we shouldn't be distracting to others. Different churches have different styles of worship—at the Vineyard, our priority is to create a safe place for those both near and far from God to worship together. | 8/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
19 |
CleanThe Heart of Worship | Rick O launches our series on worship by clarifying that worship is not an event, but a lifestyle of constantly giving God's love back to him. God is looking for worshipers who treasure his presence, come with sacrifcial and humble hearts and extend God's love by every means possible. Let's worship! | 8/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
20 |
CleanIt's Not Over Till It's Over | Rick O compares the fates of James and Peter. James was executed, but Peter was miraculously rescued. When God doesn't seem to act fairly, it sets off a series of questions... Take these questions to God. Ultimately, we don't know what God's plan is—but disappointment can't stop us from going to him. | 8/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
21 |
CleanA Place at the Table | Rick K continues our series through Acts with a story of how God showed Peter that his message was for ALL people. What a huge shift for Jewish followers! God is inclusive—he desires relationship with everyone. God is good; he brings the "good life". Not a life of wealth, but "the abundant life". | 8/7/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
22 |
CleanIt's Never Too Late | Rick O challenges the notion that anyone is too far gone for God to reach. Saul was a notorious persecutor of the church, but God transformed him into perhaps the greatest Christian leader in church history. What instigated this change? An encounter with the real and living Jesus! Nobody is beyond Christ's love. | 7/31/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
23 |
CleanWhen God Whispers Your Name | Rick O wonders if you've ever heard God whisper, "This is me." In Acts, Philip had a divine appointment. God invited Philip to join him in the amazing experience of telling an Ethiopian eunuch about Jesus and, in the process, being beamed to a different city, Star Trek style. So, what are you hearing? | 7/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
24 |
CleanStand | Rick K introduces us to Stephen, who made a stand in life and death. The presence of God stood out in his life—when threatened, he was steadfast with confidence in Jesus. Typically, Jesus is portrayed as seated in heaven, but he stood as Stephen was martyred. Are we living lives worth standing for? | 7/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
25 |
CleanTrouble in Paradise | Rick K introduces our series, God's Unstoppable Force. Unstoppable forces, in people or nature, can be bad or good. We all know the church has problems, but together, with passion for God's mission and with the Holy Spirit in control, God's church can be the unstoppable force it was always meant to be. | 7/10/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
26 |
CleanStuck in a Moment | Rick O continues to explore our value of experiencing God. Life is a succession of very real, powerful moments. We often don't recognize that the God of the past or future is right here. What is God doing now? Our relationship with God isn't defined by a past decision, but our surrender right now. | 7/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
27 |
CleanAwakened to God's Presence | Rick O explains that experiencing God means being awakened to his presence. We try lots of things to fill the emptiness, but we were simply created for union with God. We can rely on the fact that God is here, today. Let's surrender to God in this present moment! | 6/26/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
28 |
CleanCommunity That Connects | Rick K calls us to be a community that reconciles. God wants to restore our broken relationships with creation, each other and ourselves. Like iron sharpens iron, we rub off the rough edges simply by choosing to be around each other. When we become a reconciling community, we can finally take off our masks. | 6/19/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
29 |
CleanLove Has a Name | Rick O reveals that love has a name and that name is Jesus. Love has another name... and that's your name! Loving people and loving God always go together. Just like many mysteries of the Bible, it's a both/and situation. At the Vineyard, we bring God's salvation AND justice (meeting people's needs) to our community. | 6/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
30 |
CleanEverybody Gets to Play | Rick O believes that in God's kingdom, everyone gets to play. You can't be anything you want to be, but you can be anything that God calls you to be. There was a moment when Jesus said to his disciples, “Guys, now it's your turn.” Let's be God's work in progress! | 6/5/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
31 |
CleanCulturally Relevant Mission | Jack English tells the story of the first time he brought a friend to church and how insider everything looked through his friend's eyes. James, the brother of Jesus, believed the church should make it easy for those who are turning to God. How can we as a church be a bridge to Jesus (rather than a barrier)? | 5/29/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
32 |
CleanGod's Unshakable Kingdom | Rick O introduces the central message of Jesus: the kingdom of God. And Jesus didn't just teach about it—he demonstrated it. Although there is a day coming when heaven and the rule and reign of God will fully come, we can get glimpses or pieces now. Let's invite God's kingdom to come. | 5/22/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
33 |
CleanThe Two Faces of Grace | In the Bible, Jesus paints a picture of a father's outrageous love for his two sons. Like these two sons, Rick O reminds us that if we've been running from God or we've kept ourselves at a distance—it's time to come home. No matter who we are, Jesus gives us grace. | 5/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
34 |
CleanGrace to Connect | Rick K sets us out on a journey to connect with God. We should strive for a longing deep within our bones for proximity and connection with God. By the Holy Spirit, God has provided a way to begin to experience connection with him to the point of overflowing. | 5/8/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
35 |
CleanWho Gave You the Right: A Story of Grace | Rick O shares a story of grace. Jesus tells a parable about workers who were upset that those who only worked a couple hours received the same pay as them. How unfair! In reality, though, we don't deserve anything. When we're offended by God's generosity to others, we've forgotten his generosity to us. | 5/1/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
36 |
CleanThe God Who Lives | Rick O reads in the Bible that after denying Christ, Peter wept. Peter's failure almost ended everything, but it didn't. God's grace transformed Peter's story into one of redemption. Ultimately he emerged to become one of the greatest leaders in church history. Nothing can limit God's power to change us if we allow him to. | 4/24/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
37 |
CleanStanding Up in a Bow Down World | Rick O reveals that anything more important to us than God is an idol. We're either bowing down to this world or transforming it by taking a stand. Standing for God might bring hardship or suffering, but God promises to deliver us from it or join us in the midst of it. | 4/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
38 |
CleanSEX: Starvation and Gluttony | Guest speaker Dr. Eric Sandras describes God's heart for restoration in our sexuality. The devil takes us further than we want to go, makes us stay longer and demands a price we can't possibly pay. Jesus offers freedom and a way out. Our needs for identity and intimacy should first be met by God. | 4/10/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
39 |
CleanThe Seductive Power of Money | Rick O hopes that Jesus—not money—would so capture your heart that you would choose to give it all to him. Before he met Jesus, Zacchaeus cheated people out of their money. After that encounter, however, he couldn't have been more generous. God wants to replace our greed with generosity. The question isn't how much should you give... it's how much should you keep. | 4/3/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
40 |
CleanThe Illusion of Control | Rick O talks about the illusion of power. Even Nebuchadnezzar in the Bible, the most powerful person on earth at the time, learned that he wasn't in control when God temporarily took away his kingdom. We must surrender our control and trust God. Letting go brings peace, because we serve a good God. | 3/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
41 |
CleanThe Race for Achievment | Sven tells the story of his race for achievement as a long-distance runner. Like Naaman from the Bible, we try to gain approval through achievement. Both our achievements and our failures shape, motivate and affect us, but we can't let it define us; God's love should do that. Give him center stage in your heart. | 3/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
42 |
CleanHow to Make a God | Rick K asks us to let go of the "idols" in our hearts. God told Abraham to sacrifice the most important thing in his world, his son Isaac. Although God provided a last-minute substitute, Abraham was willing to give up his "idol" when God asked him to. What is your idol; what is your Isaac? | 3/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
43 |
CleanEngaging Our City | Rick O reminds us that we're called to do the very things that Jesus did. Watch for what God is doing in the moment. Be willing to ask for a miracle. Expect God to work. And do it all with love and humility. We can't guarantee that anyone will be healed, but we can make sure they're loved. | 3/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
44 |
CleanNaturally Supernatural | Rick O believes that anyone can be empowered or used by the Spirit of God. Unfortunately, we often make a show of the Holy Spirit or create a kind of “circus” atmosphere. Instead of simply dismissing the Holy Spirit, we should understand that every supernatural experience is a mixture of God's power and human messiness. | 2/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
45 |
CleanSeeking God for Our City | Rick O declares a vision to formally engage our city. Although our church does great things for our community, we often do it covertly. God doesn't want us to hide our light. What if we were known for loving and caring for government leaders? Dare to believe that God placed you where you are for his purpose. | 2/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
46 |
CleanIn the Hands of the Master Potter | Guest speaker Dave Blakeslee forms a pot on his potter's wheel. It's a metaphor for us—we are clay in the hands of God, the master potter. We are molded from the inside out, placed in the fiery kiln and formed for a unique purpose. All the while God is with us through every step of the process. | 2/13/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
47 |
CleanPutting It All Together | Rick O reminds us that God wants us to invest in others and have others invest in us. We often think we're not worth it, but God is for us. He started something in us and promises to finish it! It's not enough for people to believe in us; we need Christ. | 2/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
48 |
CleanBelief That Perseveres | Becky shares hope for everyone who has a kid in their life. God is bigger than any of the mistakes that we make raising kids. Believe in your kids by seeing them through God's eyes—listen to them and encourage them. Be open with them about your spiritual journey and look for teachable moments so they can understand that God believes in them, too. | 1/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
49 |
CleanInvesting in This New Generation | Rick Olmstead shares his passion to impart spiritual life to this new generation. As the older generation, we're called to unleash Christ-centered, Biblically-anchored world changers. Too often, we serve up a no-cost brand of Christianity that Jesus never offered; we must live at a pitch that draws this new generation to follow and serve with us. | 1/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
50 |
CleanI Believe in This Generation | Rick O believes in this generation of young people. We certainly have our flaws, but we are also the most cause-driven, mission-minded generation in modern history. We have compassion and feel the pain of hurting people and outsiders. Our decisions matter right now and contribute to what God is doing in the world. | 1/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
51 |
CleanI Believe in You | Rick O prompts us to remember the people who have believed in us. The enemy tells us that God is not for us. It's not true! God does believe in us. Ask him for someone to affirm and believe in you. Also, ask God to send someone for you to invest in and believe in. | 1/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
52 |
CleanLooking for Jesus | Rick O concludes our series of discovering Jesus by asking how we will respond to Jesus? The shepherds heard about baby Jesus and responded in simple obedience. The magi thought through life's mysteries before journeying to bring treasure and worship? Will we resist God like Herod? The key to Christmas is our response to Jesus. | 12/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
53 |
CleanJesus from Nazareth | Rick O invites us to know Jesus from Nazareth. And it's impossible to know him apart from his Jewishness. Although we tend to sanitize him, Jesus was full of emotion and expression. He got tired, angry and hungry. Jesus experienced all of what it means to be human and understands our struggles. | 12/12/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
54 |
CleanSon of Man | Rick K marvels that Jesus was both fully God and fully man. Jesus is the “I am” who spoke from the burning bush to Moses and the infinite being who created the cosmos. If Jesus is who he claimed to be, he deserves our worship, his life has infinite value and he feels our pain. | 12/5/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
55 |
CleanWho's In and Who's Out? | Rick K declares the kingdom of God is available for you right now. That goes for all of us; we just need to be connected with Jesus. The beatitudes (Matthew 5) are not a VIP list, a how-to-be-blessed checklist, or a future reality. Jesus opens the door to God not because you merit it, but despite your deprived condition! | 11/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
56 |
CleanJesus and Sacred Spaces | Rick O tells how Jesus erased the distinction between sacred and secular spaces. A church building is not the only place where you can meet with God; and it's certainly not any more holy. God's Spirit lives in people and together we are his church. God brings sacred redemption to the people and places around us. | 11/21/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
57 |
CleanJesus: Two Lasting Symbols | Rick O continues our Jesus-journey. Jesus reinvented two Jewish symbols as lasting conduits of his life and presence. First, Jesus gave new meaning to baptism by encouraging us (as his followers) to do it as a proclamation of our new lives in him. Second, Jesus invited us to partake of the Passover bread and cup in communion with him and each other. | 11/14/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
58 |
CleanJesus in the Margins | Guest speaker Carl Medearis encourages us to talk about Jesus all the time. But do you know Jesus? Study Jesus and simply retell the same stories that he told. The pressure's off. You don't have to convert anybody. Just don't get defensive and let the Holy Spirit do the work. Be personal, real and relational. | 11/7/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
59 |
CleanWho Is My Neighbor? | Rick O describes how scandalous the “unedited” Jesus is. Our role as Christians is about more than church on Sunday—we should always emulate Jesus. The question is not “who is my neighbor?”, but “who will I be a neighbor to?” Anyone God puts in your way becomes your brother, sister, neighbor and closest friend. | 10/31/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
60 |
CleanFrom Rules to Relationship | Rick O celebrates our grand opening/re-opening by leading us on a journey to rediscover Jesus. Traditions and rituals can help us grow closer to Jesus, but they don't gain God's love or favor. Jesus confronted an elitist, legalistic attitude and offered “membership” and relationship to anyone. | 10/24/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
61 |
CleanThe Radical Jesus | Rick O leads us on a discover-Jesus journey. Our mission is to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus. No religion leads to God; only Jesus leads to God. We must not be dependent on religion, tradition and routine to the point that we disengage from thoughtful engagement with Jesus. | 10/17/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
62 |
CleanGrowing Up Together | Rick K gives a simple definition of what we call “small groups”: you and two other people talking about spiritual things. It is a place to find the original, intended shape of your life in Jesus. True community happens when we are accepted for who we are but aren't content to stay that way. | 10/10/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
63 |
CleanBetter to Serve | Rick K challenges our infatuation with the spectacular by describing Jesus as a suffering servant who embraced the menial task of foot washing. We're better when we serve with others; intertwine the Holy Spirit into the mix and watch out! Instead of serving on our own terms, let's be the servant of all. | 10/3/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
64 |
CleanWhat Breaks and What Builds Relationships (continued) | Rick O shares insight on how God's love and forgiveness poured out in big doses can rebuild relationships that have been broken by insecurity and resentment. Human love runs out—we're bound to disappoint ourselves and others. Even so, ask God for courage to forgive and love again. | 9/26/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
65 |
CleanWhat Breaks and What Builds Relationships | Rick O discloses that it takes something supernatural for us to take our focus off of ourselves. Everyone's natural inclination is to be selfish and prideful. Selflessness is a little more of “you” and less of “me”. Humility is letting go of comparisons. It's apologizing without excuses and giving freedom to make mistakes. | 9/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
66 |
CleanWhy We Need Each Other | Rick O leads us to be who God created our church to be; more than a collection of individuals who sit in rows, but family. Listen to somebody's highs and lows and then share yours. Invite people to help you with your blind spots and then come alongside and do the same for them. | 9/12/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
67 |
CleanPrologue | Rick K suggests that you cannot love God without loving people; God designed you for connectedness. Biblical community happens in a group small enough for people to know (and even irritate) you. You need people's needs just as much as you need people's gifts. Community is not optional. | 9/5/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
68 |
CleanWho Paid for the Roof? | Rick O explains that there's always a monetary cost so that others can experience the kingdom of God. A paralyzed man was healed by Jesus after being lowered through the roof by a group of loving friends, but the question remains, “Who paid for the roof?” By giving dollars or earthly currency to the cause of Christ, we are converting our dollars into "kingdom currency". | 8/29/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
69 |
CleanBuilding the Gates of Our City | Rick O gives our church a vision to reach the entire city of Fort Collins (and Northern Colorado) with campuses, similar to Nehemiah's strategy of rebuilding of the gates of Jerusalem. Underneath the façade of the “choice city” are people in desperate need of a relationship with Jesus. | 8/22/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
70 |
CleanWho's in Charge Here? | Rick O talks about the rugged story of Ananias and Sapphira. We are to approach our loving God with hearts overflowing with awe and respect. We shouldn't fear opinions of others when we know that God is in control. God never meant for us to be powerless or act as if we serve a powerless God. | 8/15/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
71 |
CleanThirsty | Instead of trying harder, getting up earlier or revving up our emotions, Rick K invites us to step into the river of life and allow the river of the Holy Spirit to flow through us. We grieve the Holy Spirit when we choose to thirst for and be quenched by something other than God. | 8/8/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
72 |
CleanMore than You Bargained For | Rick K invites us to be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. God doesn't fit the "boxes" and expectations built by our finite minds. We must anticipate getting more from God than we've bargained for. Let's live a life led by the Holy Spirit right where we're at! | 8/1/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
73 |
CleanFire in the Hole! | Rick O asks God to set our church on fire with the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit. Like Peter, we don't just need to be restored, we need to re-engage with courage and boldness. When we call out to God, we believe he'll show up to do what only he can do. | 7/25/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
74 |
CleanWhat Are You Looking At? | God's calling us into the dangerous center of his will to become part of his unstoppable force. Rick K encourages us to say “no” to complacency and and “yes” to getting in the game and passionately believing. Full of faith we choose to pray and anticipate what the rule and reign of Jesus can do in our lives. | 7/18/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
75 |
CleanStepping into the Future | Rick O revisits last week's talk on Elijah. God is asking us (as a church) what we're doing here and challenging us to go back and recapture what our church was originally called to be. God is leading us to step into the future by reaching Fort Collins with many campuses. | 7/11/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
76 |
CleanWhat Goes Up Must Come Down | As great as the works of the Lord might be, Rick O reminds us that only God will sustain us. God is saying to us the same things he said to Elijah: “What are you doing here?” and “Go back the way you came”. We must not settle for mediocrity. | 7/4/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
77 |
CleanMy Kinda Barbecue | Rick K challenges us to live our lives like the prophet Elijah by examining what we give our lives to, choosing God rather than hesitating between opinions and taking risk where we'll have to ask God for a miracle. | 6/27/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
78 |
CleanFather's Day | Rick O reminds fathers that God, our father, is there for us, provides for us, disciplines us and defends us. Earthly fathers can start right where they are and do the same because our heavenly father can give them those things that they never received. God, our father, is the only perfect dad. | 6/20/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
79 |
CleanBattle for Our Money (continued) | Rick O invites us to embrace God's light-filled side of money. We win by being content with having riches, maintaining a ready posture for extravagant generosity, and giving away even more—all while believing in God's ability to bless us beyond what we need. | 6/13/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBattle for Our Money | Rick O warns us that the enemy's strategy is to devour our lives with the love of money. We stand against the enemy by facing our feelings about money, giving up ownership of our money and giving money. When we live a life of trust and surrender, God rebukes the enemy. | 6/6/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBattle for Our Time (continued) | Rick O warns us that we must pull back from the front lines of the battle and spend solitude with God if we hope to be replenished and rejuvenated to fight again another day. A hurried lifestyle full of activity can leave us with no choice but to let go of what we care for most when emergencies and challenges arise. | 5/30/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBattle for Our Time | Rick O encourages us to be careful and wise with our use of time because Satan's agenda if for us to waste our lives. When we understand the life direction that God has created us for, we begin to use our time purposefully. It's then that we begin to spend our time on purpose instead of by accident. | 5/23/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBattle for the Family (continued) | Rick O demonstrates that because of Jesus we can break free from the enemy's cycle of bitterness and rage in our families by letting go of the destructive vows we've made and choosing to forgive ourselves and others when we experience anger. When we're full of forgiveness, the devil gets flushed out of our families. | 5/16/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanStand | Rick K challenges us to stand in readiness for attacks of the enemy. When we receive God's armor, we must put it on and stand side-by-side other believers with Jesus Christ as the head. Together we are directed by the Holy Spirit to stand for truth and mercy, confronting the evil that surrounds us. | 5/2/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanYour Personal 'Code Red' | Rick O describes the "Code Red" that has been issued by the Evil One on our lives and loved ones. We can try to ignore the enemy or we can prepare for battle and victory by drawing near to God and turning on God's light with our actions and choices. | 4/25/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanKnow Your Enemy | Rick O gives us a biblical perspective on Satan. To win your battle against the Evil One, you must "Know Your Enemy". Our enemy the devil masquerades as an angel of light and accuses us with lies. There is no condemnation in Christ and our enemy Lucifer pales in comparison to Almighty God, the creator of all things. | 4/18/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanMaking the Invisible Visible | Rick O challenges us to be aware of the seemingly invisible war that is going on in our lives between Satan and Jesus Christ. We're to put on the full armor of God so that we can stand firm against the strategies of the devil. | 4/11/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanBattle at the Cross | Rick O challenges some of our assumptions about the story of Christ's death and resurrection by talking about the spiritual battle that was going on in the spiritual world. We have victory because Satan has been defeated by Jesus Christ. | 4/4/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

CleanAn Awkward Moment | Rick K gives us a greater understanding of who Jesus is by describing how Jesus was fully God (mysterious knowledge and compassion) and fully human (weeping sorrowfully for the end of his life and the injustice he experienced). We are invited to welcome the king of peace through the gates of our lives. | 3/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Go GOD!
YAY FOR VINEYARD OF THE ROCKIES!!
This is GREAT!
All it needs is some of the music to go along with it. Hope you update it soon! I miss Vineyard Ft. Collins!!!
Vineyard Church of the Rockies
Listen to the new direction our church is going. Gone is the dream of becoming a mega-church. Vineyard Church of the Rockies is choosing to become a grassroots movement of neighborhood churches. This is one more example of God using multi-site churches to change the world.
