Knowing Christ Is Unspeakable Joy | Christian Masculinity 19:37

5d ago19:37

19:37

We love telling people where we’ve been, what we’ve done, and what we’ve accomplished—because joy shared is joy multiplied. But in a world where sharing quickly becomes comparing, even our proudest moments fade fast. What if the deepest joy we could ever experience didn’t come from something we did, but from something done for us? In this episode, …

19d ago19:45

19:45

In this world, it seems that it is important to show everyone who you are, what you have accomplished, what you deserve. Someone has to speak up for you, and it might have to be you! If you aren’t watching out for yourself, who is going to? But the greatest possible contradiction to this is the heart and core of the Bible. We must humble ourselves …

What does it look like to live a life worthy of the gospel of Jesus Christ? It means living in such a way that shows Jesus is worth something to you.

Letting God’s light shine as we live in this dark world can be pretty difficult. As we follow Jesus in a world that doesn’t, we will face opposition. So we need a thick skin if we are going to do what God calls us to do. But we also need a loving heart toward people. Love moved Jesus to do what He did for us, and it is love for people that will mov…

Easter | Can It Really Be True? (Luke 24) 16:52

1M ago16:52

16:52

The grave was sealed. The enemy thought he had won. But death could not hold Him. On the third day, the ransom was complete—not just in suffering, but in victory. Jesus had paid the price, and now He rose to break the chains of sin, death, and the devil forever. The empty tomb is not just proof of His power; it is the receipt of our freedom. We wer…

Holy Week | Good Friday (The Seven Words) 16:33

1M ago16:33

16:33

The verdict was clear: guilty. Not for Jesus, but for us. Yet, the innocent One stood silent as the guilty walked free. He was flogged so we could be healed. He was forsaken so we could be accepted. He was condemned so the condemned could go free. This was no accident. No tragic twist of fate. This was the plan—the ransom paid in blood. As we stand…

That night, Jesus took bread and broke it, offering His body. He poured out the cup, offering His blood. He knelt and washed the feet of His disciples—Judas included. In the face of betrayal, Jesus gave a gift: Himself. He knew what was coming. The thirty silver pieces had already exchanged hands. The guards were already on their way. But Jesus did…

Lord, Have Mercy | For Abusing Your Commandments (Romans 3) 16:48

1M ago16:48

16:48

We often think of abusing God’s Commandments as simply breaking them, but there’s a more subtle and dangerous abuse: trying to obey them in an effort to earn God’s favor and secure our place in heaven. This view sets aside God’s perfect plan of salvation and replaces it with a futile attempt to climb to Him. Satan turns the law into a ladder, leavi…

21:12

That week in Jerusalem was unlike any other. When Jesus entered on a donkey, the crowds cheered, waving palm branches and shouting praises, but they didn’t fully understand what was happening.

Lord, Have Mercy | For Failing to Live with Integrity 16:35

2M ago16:35

16:35

Integrity means being sound and whole—both in structure and in character. The final four Commandments reveal whether our hearts align with God’s will. When we steal, lie, or covet, it exposes more than bad behavior; it reveals broken values and desires. We lack honesty, empathy, and contentment—not just in our actions, but in who we are. Instead of…

God created us in His image to reflect His love in our relationships. The Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Commandments teach us to honor authority, protect life, and cherish marriage. Yet, in every kind of relationship—family, workplace, community—we invent new ways to harm each other. How we treat others reveals how we truly feel about God. But where we …

Two things are certain - death and taxes. Taxes are due in just a few weeks. But who knows when death will overtake us. Then, and at that moment, we will stand before the ultimate judge of all. For you, Jesus stood before human judges and even God himself. He, who is the ultimate Judge, became the judged judge. And because he did three things are n…

The Second and Third Commandments reveal God’s mercy in how He saves us. His name isn’t just a label—it’s His reputation, His promises, His very character. The Sabbath isn’t just a day off—it’s the rest He gives from fear and condemnation. Yet, when we use His name flippantly, treat His Word lightly, or ignore the rest He offers, we do more harm to…

If a loved one needed heart surgery, would you trust a first-year med student or an experienced surgeon? If accused of a crime, would you rely on a legal intern or a top attorney?

When we’re accused of doing wrong, it’s easy to get defensive, making excuses or comparing ourselves to others. But with our defenses up, repentance is impossible. God, however, lowers our defenses by inviting us into His open arms, where we don’t need to pretend to be perfect. He doesn’t ask us to confess our sins because He doesn’t know them—He a…

Would you look directly at the sun? Of course not—it would burn your eyes and leave you blind. Similarly, looking directly at God’s glory, brighter than the sun, would be overwhelming.
