March 07, 2024 07:00 - 21 minutes - 26.8 MB

Our life is made up of a series of choices, and our view of God will determine our choices every time. In the second part of Acts 5 we find the apostles facing persecution because of their bold proclamation of the gospel, but undeterred to teach about the Way. They chose to “obey God rather than man” and rather suffer unjustly than to dishonor the name of Jesus. What tends to motivate your behavior: the fear and love of God, or the fear of men?

Are you hurting and find yourself turning to whatever it takes to quiet the ache inside? You’re not alone.

November 23, 2023 03:00 - 18 minutes - 17.9 MB

“Why can’t I stop doing what I know as a follower of Jesus that I shouldn’t be doing? Why are so many of us unable to control what we so naively thought we could? Here’s a thought: what if we fail in controlling our sexual sin not because we can’t control it, but because we like it? What if the reason we keep going back to the place that we hate and do the things we abhor is that deep down, doing what we hate makes us feel better about what our deeper problem is? What if we’re just going ...

In today’s podcast we’ll continue our study of Hebrews and see how Jesus, the exalted Son and high priest provides full cleansing from sin and open access to God – the reality that the Old Testament anticipated but was never meant to accomplish.

I am confident because He is faithful [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #3]

September 21, 2023 02:00 - 38 minutes - 32.1 MB

One of the greatest battles we encounter as followers of Christ is the struggle against unbelief. When our prayers go seemingly answered, when we don’t see the results we hoped for, when life hurls one curveball after another, we’re tempted to succumb to fear, disappointment, and to forget who is on our side. In Hebrews chapter 3, the author is making a point that one of the most effective ways to fight unbelief is to consider Jesus, to think carefully about Him (Hebrews 3:1). By consideri...

September 14, 2023 02:00 - 39 minutes - 33.5 MB

Today we’re continuing The Confidence Series with a look at Hebrews chapter 2 where we will recognize another reason we can be confident: because God is in control. Much like us today, the early Christian believers were living in tumultuous times. They confronted injustice, endured suffering, and grappled with a sense of uncertainty, all of which tempted them to forsake their faith. In this context, the author of Hebrews reminds them, and us, that even when things look messy, when life is ...

August 03, 2023 02:00 - 32 minutes - 27.6 MB

Have you ever felt restless or dissatisfied, despite having success, possessions, or even fulfilling relationships? God has placed within each of us a holy discontent, a stirring, a desire for something more. It's a longing that cannot be satisfied by anything else but a deep and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. In today’s podcast we’ll look at Revelation 22 and delve into God’s invitation to us, the blessings that are still to come to those who seek Him, as well as learn how to cu...

July 27, 2023 02:00 - 37 minutes - 31 MB

Life often presents us with trials, doubts, and circumstances that challenge the very core of our beliefs. In these moments, it's natural to question if our faith truly holds any weight. The lineup of men and women from Hebrews 11 certainly understand the struggle in our heart, and the way they responded to adversity, unfairness, confusion, or God’s silence, serves as a timeless guide for us during our most trying times. So, grab your headphones, open your heart, and listen to today’s podc...

Unshaken faith when I feel like a failure [UNSHAKEN 28]

July 20, 2023 02:00 - 34 minutes - 28.3 MB

What’s your relationship with failure like? Where do you see yourself as a failure and how have you responded to that failure? John 21 is one of my favorite stories in the Bible. Here we encounter how Jesus responded to Peter after what was probably his biggest failure yet – the denial of Jesus before His crucifixion. Instead of scolding him, Jesus loves him and points him to his purpose and calling.   I believe today’s podcast will bring you hope and remind you that your failure is not t...

Unshaken faith when God’s ways offend me [UNSHAKEN 25]

June 29, 2023 02:30 - 34 minutes - 28.9 MB

Have you ever placed your trust in God, hoping for a positive outcome, only to feel let down? In Matthew 11, John the Baptist’s story looked like it ended badly from a human perspective. Here was an individual whom Jesus considered to be the greatest among all men (Mat. 11:11) stuck in prison, hoping to be delivered, only to be beheaded instead. From the viewpoint of God, John's final outcome was intricately designed with divine purpose, his life was profoundly meaningful, and his calling ...
