St. John the Baptist is an Orthodox Christian church of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America. We are located in Beaverton, Oregon (Portland westside).

Each recording begins with intonations of the appointed Epistle and Gospel readings. We cite the Gospel reading in the sermon title, as this is the passage on which the sermon is usually based. We trust ...

Walking and communion with God are not automatic. How then do you experience the reality of a personal relationship with God, or read your Bible and experience God’s presence?

This podcast tackles the experiential side of Christianity with teaching, interviews, and question and answer episodes. If you want to ...

Launched in April 2006, this podcast, originally named the "About The Church" podcast, has journeyed through a remarkable evolution. Its inception saw me, your host, deeply rooted in fundamentalist, evangelical Christianity, even holding the title of associate pastor. However, over time, my spiritual perspectives have shifted. In 2011, the podcast took a turn when I broke ties with the traditional institution of the church and "performance-based Christianity," prompting a rebranding of the s ...

Send us a text Christ is in every believer. This is the greatest reality of the Christian faith. To be joined in a union with Jesus Christ makes you and He one in purpose, identity, and destiny. This is such an incredible fact that many struggle to believe it. Nevertheless, it is true whether you believe it or not. Not even your lack of faith chang…

Send us a text If Christ is living in the believer, how can we discern who is living? The Apostle Paul said, ". . . it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh . . ." He says he doesn't live but then turns around and says he lives. Which is it? And how can both Christ and Paul live in the same pers…

Send us a text How does the law of the Spirit of life in Christ work? It is the principle that Christ lives in us by the person of the Holy Spirit. This dynamic becomes a law, meaning Christ is always in us because the Holy Spirit is always in us. His life is a constant. The life of the Spirit becomes, to the Christian, a governing principle or law…

Send us a text If we are to obey the Scriptures and fight our sin, we must supply the heart with a greater fascination and obsession than the sin we are fighting. The heart cannot equally pursue two opposing desires. The key is to expel a lesser longing with a greater, more pleasure-offering desire. When the heart is offered a superior affection, t…

Send us a text In this episode, Michael Durham continues to show how a biblically informed mind needs to think for doctrine to become experiential, meaning real and felt. Too many Christians think that learning doctrine is the goal. The more information they learn about God, the more they assume they know God. But that is only half of the process o…
