What God is Shaping in Us
por Pastor Fernando & Faith Morales
In this episode of the Newstory Podcast, Pastor Fernando and Faith Morales share a few big updates from this season of life. They talk about preparing to welcome a new baby, Fernando’s new job and what that transition means for their family, and the encouraging growth of Newstory Church’s weekly gatherings. Join us for an honest conversation about faith, change, family, calling, and trusting God as He writes a new story in our home and community.
In this episode, we share some big life updates—a new baby, a new house, and highlights from Connection 2026, our annual denominational gathering. We also unpack what it really takes to plant a church: building a healthy team, navigating finances with wisdom, and trusting God in the process. If you’ve been impacted by this ministry and want to sow financially into New Story Church, you can give securely at newstorylc.com.
In this episode, I (Fernando) have a fun and honest conversation with our 9-year-old son about church planting and what it’s been like for him growing up in it. Church planting is a family endeavor, and this episode gives you a real, unfiltered look at how it feels from a kid’s perspective, what he thinks we’re doing, what he enjoys, and what’s maybe a little confusing too. There are some genuinely funny moments (including when he completely forgot his mom is a pastor… yeah, awkward 😂), along with some really sweet and insightful ones. It’s a reminder that while we’re building NewStory, God is also shaping our family in the process.
In this episode, we reflect on our recent trip to Portland for our third trimester with Multiply, a church planting network through Foursquare. We share what stood out, what surprised us, and how God is continuing to shape us in this season of planting NewStory Church. From personal growth and marriage dynamics to renewed clarity and ongoing challenges, this conversation gives you an honest look into the journey behind the scenes. Whether you’re following along with NewStory or sensing a call of your own, we hope this episode encourages you to trust God in the process and stay faithful in the forming.
New Story Church is just getting started, and this podcast takes you along for the journey. In this first episode, we celebrate the launch of our very first New Story church service in Las Cruces, New Mexico — a small but meaningful beginning with our family and community. We also answer a few questions to help you learn more about why we started, what we believe, and where God is leading us next. Join Pastor Fernando and Pastor Faith Morales, founders of New Story Church, as we share the heart behind this new beginning and the story God is writing in our city.
