South Hills Church - Costa MesaIs What You Say More Powerful Than What You Do? (feat. Sam Mahlstadt) - Week 3 - The Rules of ResilienceHow can two people with similar skill sets look at the same situation and come to vastly different conclusions? It would make sense that both would have the same shot at success. But we’ve all seen prepared people fail, and those nobody would bet on succeed. Is it pure luck? Is it circumstantial? Or is there something happening on the inside of them that’s influencing what’s happening on the outside of them. We’re told that the mind is pretty powerful. Is that just something people say? How much does outlook effect outcomes? How much are our expe...2023-05-2138 min

South Hills Church - Costa Mesa"Beauty Will Save The World" feat. Sam Mahlstadt - Week 4 - The RevolutionaryIf you were to imagine what’s most important to God, beauty probably wouldn’t make the list. Dostoevsky said beauty will save the world. Jesus seemed to agree. What does that mean? Why would Jesus assign so much power & priority to something most of us see as surfacy? Could it be we don’t understand God, or have we incorrectly defined beauty? What if it’s a bit of both? What if beauty can save the world? How would that work?2022-09-2532 min

South Hills Church - Costa Mesa"Dove / Peace" - feat. Sam Mahlstadt - Week 5 - BREATH, DOVES, CLOUDS, & FIREIn Scripture, we frequently see the Holy Spirit represented as a dove. Why is that? What does this small, bright-white bird have to do with how God wants to relate to us? What can we learn by taking a deeper look at where and how this illustration was used? Could it be telling us more than one thing? If so, what?How does this winged, word picture point us to the practical ways God wants to help us experience His peace?2022-07-3138 min

South Hills Church - Costa MesaDoes Unglamorous Work Make Any Real Difference? - feat. Sam Mahlstadt - I Need A Vocation - Week 4Is there anything more to my work than just doing it well? Is the goal to just show up over and over again until retire or die? The reality is that work you do today as an engineer, cashier, teacher, banker, or stay-at-home parent will have an eternal impact – but how?2022-06-2634 min

South Hills Church - Costa MesaEverything Happens For A Reason, feat. Sam Mahlstadt - GOD NEVER SAID THAT - Week 1A lot of our thinking is held together by short, sticky statements that help us make sense of things. We repeat them, post them, and pass them along. Sure, they may be clichés, but they’re also strangely comforting. And because they’re so prevalent and popular, we assume they’re from Scripture. Are they though? What if some of these sayings we keep repeating are based on a misunderstanding? What if… God Never Said That?2021-11-0744 min

Tuesday Morning Coffee ☕️Responding wellI was reflecting with a friend about a career setback, when they made an astute observation about the outcome of any situation is dictated by how we respond.

South Hills Church - Costa MesaThis Is Us - Week 3 - "We reach new & different people, by trying new & different things." feat. Sam MahlstadtEvery family has a way of thinking, talking, and handling things. The same is true of every church. So, who are we, what are our priorities, and where did we get these ideas? There are a handful of stories and sayings from the first generation of Christians that summarize the sort of church we set out to be. South Hills isn’t a bunch of buildings, it’s a diverse family of followers who share certain values. This is us.2020-07-2630 min

Tuesday Morning Coffee ☕️Running in the RainYesterday, my twins 5-year-olds and I got caught in a downpour while on a walk. With a nervous laugh, my daughter ran home, getting soaked. What a wonderful reminder that sometimes in life, things work as planned and sometimes they don’t. Sometimes the weather holds off and sometimes you get soaked.

Tuesday Morning Coffee ☕️Is it helpful?I had a different topic to discuss when I was invited to (re)consider my approach to the topic.

I simply ask them “is it helpful?” As I receive the invitation to reflect on that, I invite you to do the same. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sam-mahlstadt0/support 2020-02-0403 min
