About this listen

A companion podcast for mentors and parents of confirmation students at the First Congregational Church of Hudson, OH! This show will aim to bring adults along the journey we take our confirmands on each year in our confirmation program Spark. We will take a dive into the topics that we discuss with students and Rev. Connor Filkins will give a deeper background geared toward adult listeners. We hope this show will be a helpful tool for parents and mentors in the program, but also for adults who are a part of FCCH who want to get a deeper sense of the traditions and beliefs of the United Church of Christ.2025 Spirituality

  • The Servant Mindset
    Dec 22 2025

    In this episode, Rev. Connor Filkins breaks down the mindset behind true, faithful service to those in need. Where charity can reinforce heirarchies, Jesus was all about relationships, and so too should Christ-followers be when we enter into service opportunites. Understanding those we serve better enables us to serve as well.
