The Sting of Consequences and the Song of Confidence 13:36

Play Pause

7h ago13:36

13:36

Share a comment What do you do when the fallout from your choices feels unbearable? We walk with Asaph through Psalms 79–81 and find a clear path forward: own the consequences without excuses, cry out for compassion with honest humility, and rediscover joy through worship that remembers God’s faithfulness. The backdrop is grim—Babylon has burned th…

Like Father Like Son 28:33

10h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment A bold promise with no map changed Abraham’s life—and it can reframe ours. We dive into Romans 4 to show how justification rests not on pedigree or performance but on faith in the risen Christ, and we press that theology into everyday decisions where obedience often arrives before explanations. Along the way, we challenge the modern…

A Chain Reaction of Truth 13:50

4h ago13:50

13:50

Share a comment A single footprint in the sand can change everything. We open with a milestone: The Wisdom Journey is launching on satellite TV in Arabic, bringing verse-by-verse Bible teaching to millions across the Arabic-speaking world. That global step sets the stage for a message drawn from Psalm 77 and Psalm 78—where God’s hidden footprints m…

Abraham and Islam 28:33

4h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Who really belongs to Abraham’s family—those with the right ancestry, or those with the right faith? We follow Paul’s lead and ask a simple question that cuts through centuries of argument: what do the Scriptures say? From Romans 4 to Galatians 3, the promise to Abraham narrows to a single point of focus—the Seed—and widens to welco…

God Always Has the Final Word 12:34

2d ago12:34

12:34

Share a comment What do you do when the fallout from your choices lingers and the path ahead feels slow and heavy? We walk through Psalms 74–76 to trace a hopeful arc: from the ashes of Jerusalem’s temple and Asaph’s aching how long, to God’s set time of judgment, to a stunning rescue that left an empire’s army silent. Along the way, we grapple wit…

The Hopeless Case 28:33

19h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Hope isn’t glitter for bad days; it’s the framework that holds us together when life unravels. We start with a small classroom moment that changes everything—Miss Thompson’s compassion for Teddy Stollard—and follow that thread to Abraham’s long wait for a promise that defied biology, calendars, and common sense. Along the way we con…

Origins 28:33

13h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment What if the way we answer “Where did life begin?” quietly decides how we live, love, and hope? We journey from Romans 4 to Genesis 1 and Revelation to make a clear case: a real Creator is the foundation of human dignity, moral clarity, and lasting meaning. Along the way, we examine why science can measure the world with precision ye…

Finding Answers in the Sanctuary 12:12

6h ago12:12

12:12

Share a comment When life looks unfair and the loudest wins seem to go to the least deserving, it’s easy to slip into resentment. We sit with Asaph in Psalm 73 as he names those hard questions, then watch the hinge moment: stepping into God’s sanctuary and seeing everything—success, suffering, and the future—through a clearer lens. That shift doesn…

Asking Seven Forbidden Questions 11:35

4h ago11:35

11:35

Share a comment A worship leader ready to resign, a heart full of envy, and a sanctuary that changes everything—Psalm 73 reads like a journal entry we were never supposed to see. We walk with Asaph as he watches the ungodly thrive in wealth, ease, health, and status, and he dares to ask the questions many of us hide: Why do those who ignore God see…

Ruling Out the Law 28:33

12h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Grace doesn’t discount the price—it pays the whole bill. We explore why the law was never meant to save you, how it functions like a mirror that reveals but can’t repair, and what it means to receive an inheritance you could never earn. Using Abraham as our guide and Romans 4 as our map, we unpack the difference between righteous de…

The Sign and Seal of Faith 28:33

12h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment What if the timeline of Abraham’s life overturns everything you thought about how God saves? We walk through Romans 4, Galatians 3, and Genesis to show why Abraham was counted righteous long before he received any covenant sign—and why that changes how we think about faith, ritual, and belonging. By contrasting Abraham and David—bot…

Walking With God Through Life 11:50

5h ago11:50

11:50

Share a comment When prayer is urgent and the clock seems cruel, what do we say, and how do we trust? We dive into Psalms 70–72 to explore the arc from “Make haste, O God” to gray-haired praise and a father’s blessing that outlives a crown. The journey begins with David’s short, desperate cry that proves sincerity matters more than length. It then …

A Closer Look at the Sufferings of Christ 12:20

8d ago12:20

12:20

Share a comment What if a single psalm could chart both the facts of Jesus’ suffering and the feelings he carried through it? We walk through Psalm 69 as more than David’s lament, uncovering how it points to the Messiah with surprising precision and deep compassion. From the “deep mire” image to the ache of being a stranger to his brothers, we conn…

Forgiven . . . Forgotten 28:33

23h ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Ever felt the urge to make amends with God by doing more, promising harder, or waiting out your guilt? We go straight at that instinct and uncover why it can’t save you—and why Scripture offers something far better: forgiveness that is carried away, covered, and never counted against you. Drawing from Romans 3–4 and David’s confessi…

The Cover-up 28:33

8d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment What if the only way to feel covered is to be fully uncovered? We open Romans 4 and the story of David and Bathsheba to face a hard truth with surprising hope: hiding sin always multiplies pain, while confession opens the door to joy, forgiveness, and a clear conscience. We start by naming the modern cover-up playbook—deny, downgrad…

God Leads His Dear Children Along 11:31

10d ago11:31

11:31

Share a comment Grief can feel like a closed room, but sometimes it opens into a song. We start with the tender story behind the hymn God Leads Us Along and trace its roots to Psalm 66, where the writer speaks of crushing burdens, fire, and water—and the God who leads through all of it. That lived theology takes shape in the life of evangelist Geor…

Father Abraham 28:33

13d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Start with the claim that unsettles our religious reflexes: if Abraham wasn’t justified by works, no one is. We open Romans 4 and watch Paul pull Genesis onto the witness stand, showing that Abraham believed God and it was credited to him as righteousness. That single line reframes the whole debate about salvation, boasting, and the…

Security and Satisfaction (Psalms 63–65) 13:59

13d ago13:59

13:59

Share a comment Desert thirst meets harvest joy as we walk with David through Psalms 63–65 and explore where real security and satisfaction are found. We start in the wilderness of Judah, where a fugitive king models what to do when life feels sun-baked and brittle: seek God early, name the ache, and let spiritual hunger set the tone for the day. F…

No Other Option but God (Psalms 60–62) 13:45

14d ago13:45

13:45

Share a comment When life pushes past your limits, where do you run first? We walk through Psalms 60–62 to trace David’s journey from defeat to dependence, showing how confession, clear promises, and “God alone” trust rebuild courage when feelings are faint and circumstances refuse to budge. We start with the battlefield backdrop of Psalm 60, where…

Ordinary Saints 28:33

14d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Grace doesn’t wait for perfect conditions; it reaches the soul right where life feels unmoved. We close our journey through Philippians by tracing how Paul’s final lines pull the whole letter into focus: greet every saint, honor the family of faith, and rest in the grace that Christ applies to the spirit, not the circumstances. Alon…

The Hiding Place (Psalms 57–59) 13:20

15d ago13:20

13:20

Share a comment Caves, closets, and courage meet in one sweeping story about refuge that holds when fear refuses to blink. We open with Corrie Ten Boom’s family watch shop in the Netherlands, where a secret room saved hundreds of Jewish neighbors and eventually led Corrie through prison, loss, and a line that still steadies the heart: there is no p…

The Most Famous Thank-You Letter in Church History 28:33

15d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment A thank-you note written in chains shouldn’t feel this joyful, but Paul’s letter to the Philippians turns generosity into worship, partnership, and a promise with real weight. We walk through Philippians 4:14–20 to show how a small church that “gave until it hurt” became equal partners in the work of the gospel—and even in its rewar…

The Tear Collector (Psalm 56) 13:45

16d ago13:45

13:45

Share a comment Dark nights have a way of bending our sense of direction. We think we’re level, but the gauges tell another story. We take you to Psalm 56—David’s raw prayer from Gath—where fear doesn’t vanish, yet trust takes the lead. Through the lens of a real aviation tragedy and the metaphor of flying by instruments, we explore why instincts c…

Enough 28:33

16d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Looking for peace that doesn’t evaporate when life changes? We dive into Philippians 4 and trace Paul’s road-tested way of contentment from a prison room that felt more like a garden than a cell. Chained, underfed, and largely forgotten, he still rejoices—and shows us why gratitude, responsibility, acceptance, and dependence are not…

What’s On Your Mind? 28:33

17d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment Your mind is a battleground, and the way you think determines the kind of life you build. We unpack Philippians 4:8–9 and lay out eight clear filters for your thought life—true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, commendable, excellent, and worthy of praise—then show how to move from theory to practice. These aren’t polite suggestions;…

Betrayal and the Urge to Bite Back (Psalms 52–55) 13:16

17d ago13:16

13:16

Share a comment Betrayal can make the world go dim in an instant—especially when it comes from someone who should have protected you. We follow David through Psalms 52–55 as he faces treachery from a ruthless opportunist, from his own tribe, and from a trusted friend. Along the way, we unpack a hard but hopeful truth: evil may boast, but God’s stea…

Killing Anxiety 40:50

20d ago40:50

40:50

Share a comment Anxiety doesn’t just whisper; it coils. Paul knew that feeling all too well, writing from house arrest with chains on his wrists and a biased court ahead. Yet he tells us to be anxious for nothing—and then shows how that’s possible. We walk through his simple, demanding pattern: stop the habit of worry and start the habit of prayer …

The Beautiful City of Zion (Psalms 48–50) 12:40

21d ago12:40

12:40

Share a comment What if the most important city in the world never tops the travel lists? We journey through Psalm 48–50 to show why Zion—Jerusalem—is called the city of the Great King and the joy of the whole earth, and why that claim reshapes how we think about power, security, worship, and hope. From ancient walls that made enemies tremble to th…

Ladies and Gentlemen 40:03

40:03

Share a comment When did strength start sounding like a shout? We open Philippians 4 and discover a better way: a life marked by steady joy and a reputation for gentleness that disarms cynicism and heals conversations. Joy here isn’t tied to lucky breaks or perfect outcomes; it’s a Spirit-formed conviction that God is worthy of worship in every sea…

Pause Instead of Panic (Psalms 45–47) 13:52

22d ago13:52

13:52

Share a comment What if the loudest headline isn’t chaos but a coronation? We journey through Psalms 45–47 to move from panic to peace, from tight places to steady hope. Psalm 45 opens with a royal wedding that points beyond ancient Israel to Christ the King and the joy of a redeemed bride. Hebrews echoes its center line—Your throne, O God, is fore…

Reconcilable Differences 47:16

22d ago47:16

47:16

Share a comment A small disagreement can upend an entire community when gossip spreads and pride takes the wheel. We dive into Philippians 4 to trace how a private rift between two respected leaders began to fracture an otherwise faithful church—and how Paul guides them, and us, back to peace. Instead of picking sides or shaming from a distance, Pa…

Dry Seasons and Discouraging Times (Psalms 42–44) 13:52

23d ago13:52

13:52

Share a comment When life turns upside down and prayers seem to echo in silence, where do you place your hope? We journey through Psalms 42–44 to face spiritual drought with honest words and a steady heart, exploring how ancient songs teach modern souls to trust and wait. We begin with the raw confession of a downcast spirit—tears by day and night,…

Finding the Fountain of Youth 28:33

23d ago28:33

28:33

Share a comment What if the fountain of youth isn’t a legend, but a promise that runs deeper than time itself? We start with a vivid story about stumbling on a spring that reverses decay, then follow that image to the heart of Christian hope: Jesus as living water, the only source that truly satisfies. From there, we turn to John 1 and watch Andrew…
