more ways to engage
Catch up on messages or go back and listen again on the Fair Oaks Church Sermon Podcast. Instead of watching the service video, you can listen to just the message on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
We've introduced Cutting Room Floor episodes into the sermon podcast, where we go deeper to unpack what didn't make the cut and discuss more message themes with Sunday's teacher!
Want to become more familiar with the worship songs we use in services? Check out our Spotify playlist! We regularly update it with songs you'll hear on Sundays.
