Episode Title: Organic Christianity (Part 1) Speaker: Pastor Joe Parker Originally Delivered: October 5, 2025 Republished by: New Life Church Podcast We live in a world full of additives — even our food comes with a long list of ingredients we can’t pronounce. That’s why “organic” costs more: it’s less of what you shouldn’t have; more of what you actually want. The same is true for our faith. In this message, Pastor Joe Parker kicks off a new series called Organic Christianity, drawing us back to the simplicity and power of the early church. No additives, no distractions — just Jesus. The early church wasn’t built on programs, personalities, or performance. It was built on a person: Jesus Christ. He wasn’t part of the message — He was the message.
