The NHF podcast, "Voices of New Hope Fellowship," is a convenient way to add sermons and other audio content to your iPod. It does require a working iPod, a fast internet connection, and iTunes installed on your computer if you are using an iPod, or Windows Media Player if you are using a different mp3 player.
If you have enabled podcasting in your iPod settings, you will see the below option in the menu:
Every time you synchronize iTunes, new podcasts will be downloaded to your computer if available, which will subsequently be transferred to your iPod.
Through using podcasts, you can get not only the audio recording itself but also the sermon introduction and scripture reading for reflection. Without checking the church website, every time you open iTunes new sermons will be delivered to your computer and iPod.
