Israel & The Millennial Reign | Micah 4:1-5

May 23, 2022 10:00 - 31 minutes - 29 MB

Prophets and Profits, Truth Preachers & Ritualistic Religion | Micah 3:5-12

May 16, 2022 10:00 - 31 minutes - 28.9 MB

Loyalty to God VS Loyalty to the preacher can often appear, at surface level to be synonymous.  In Micah 3,  the prophet demonstrates what sets a true minister from God apart from a false teacher of the people.  Israel though rituals would save them, but God lists His indictment against the leaders and teachers of the day.   Journal Questions: 1.  Do you only embrace those who embrace you? (Or those you hope will embrace you?)   2.  Litmus Test For True Preachers: A. Foundation B. For C...

When God Hides + Shepherd VS Butcher Leadership | Micah 3:1-4

May 09, 2022 10:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MB

Numbers 6's "The Lord make His face to shine upon you" contrasted with Micah 3 where God hides his face from the cry of the people is so stark that we must ask, "when or why would God ever hide his face?"   Also in Micah 3,  we'll see the difference between shepherds and butchers when it comes to leading sheep.  Journal Questions:  1.  What is your function and how does your faith impact that? 2. What/Who are you sacrificing FOR? 3. What are you asking God FOR? --- Support this podcast: h...

Prosperity Preaching, Prophecy & The Breaker | Micah 2:12-13

May 02, 2022 10:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MB

Gospel preaching is not all bad news, nor is it all good news.  False teaching happens when one only presents half of the truth.  In Micah 2:12-13, we'll discover the purpose for prophecy, Micah's message of hope,  the Millennial fulfillment and a most unique Messianic title. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jonlgroves/support

False Prophets & Questioning God | Micah 2:6-11

April 25, 2022 10:00 - 19 minutes - 18 MB

How do false prophets operate? Who are you listening to? And when is it time to question God?  All this, and more as we study the Scriptures in Micah 2.   Open your Bible... --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jonlgroves/support

God Hates Oppression • Micah 2:1-5

April 18, 2022 10:00 - 18 minutes - 17.2 MB

God hates sin, but he especially hates premeditated oppression through greed and covetousness. In Micah's day, there was economic prosperity and peace on a macro scale, but people's hearts were far from God as they openly practiced sin in the daylight. Where you find distressed people, you will always find oppressive leadership, and God has something to say about those whose relationship is not right with Him. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jonlgroves/support

Keep Moving Forward [ep. 04] • The Crown

July 02, 2019 16:37 - 55 minutes - 50.8 MB

While physically, Paul is sitting in a prison cell, his mind wanders to the courtroom in which he is soon to appear. He will stand trial for the stand he’s taken for Christ, knowing that as the city of Rome burns to the ground, and the tyrannical emperor Nero does his best to snuff out the gospel light of Christianity, Paul will suffer the consequence of this political season, and his time on earth with come to an end.

Keep Moving Forward [ep. 02] • Godfidence

The presence of an earthly father instills in a child a sense of confidence. And while the statistics say that fatherless youth are destined for failure, Scripture says otherwise.

Your MOMents Matter

May 13, 2019 17:56 - 45 minutes - 41.6 MB

While there are so many amazing qualifiers for what it takes to be a superhero or we call them, “mom.” We recognize that moms are not invincible. Moms are not without discouragement.

So no matter if you are a mom, or you had a mom, God has some very special answers and encouragement for you in His Word.

Get A Room // Evicting Anxiety

April 16, 2019 04:02 - 58 minutes - 109 MB

The Greatest Showman // NEVER ENOUGH: Often we speak of “not having fear,” or the power of God to diminish and even destroy anxieties of the mind. And if you’re not a Christ follower, that sounds foolish, childish, and imaginative at best...probably insane to some. If you are a Christ follower, you read often how Jesus instructs us to not be afraid. Not to be troubled. Don’t be anxious. But the command alone seems impossible. How can I steer clear of something that is so prevalent and prevai...
