The Chastening of the Lord

Everyone who believes in Christ should be struggling against sin. We often fail in our struggle. When we do, God chastens us. That's today's topic.

Be Obedient

The Bible has instructions on obedience for children, parents, and servants in Ephesians 6. We discuss the attitude and heart behind our obedience today.

Who am I?

When called by God to lead the people of Israel out of bondage in Egypt, Moses asked who am I? The answer was God's chosen, prepared, and empowered leader.

Review

Today we discuss the importance of review from Hebrews 11 and make the case: "These are stories, lessons, and examples so rich, review cannot exhaust them." 

Fiery Trial

Believers in Christ should not be surprised by persecution. Jesus told us we would face persecution. What should our disposition be when a fiery trial comes?

Good Days

Even disciples of Christ that suffer persecution can love life and have good days according to 1 Peter 3. We take a closer look at the details on this edition.

As He Walked

People who know Christ as Savior ought to walk as He walked. That means obeying His commands, while maintaining a close relationship with Him every day. 

Well Able

When things get difficult in Numbers 13, the people of Israel take their eyes off God. They see only their circumstances and fail to see the promises of God.

The Resurrection

There is a fascinating interaction between Jesus and Martha in the account of Lazarus' resurrection. It explains why Jesus had the power to raise him up.

To Serve

The scriptures explain why and how every Christian is expected to serve. In this episode, we define the word and discuss three things to remember about it.

Exhort

We look to the scriptures to define a common word in the New Testament: exhort. Passages in Acts and Hebrews help us understand this important duty for Christians.

From the Heart

Our passage of the day in Romans 6 reminds us why and how we are able to have victory over sin through Christ. It says we can obey daily from the heart.

Concerning Himself

After Jesus' resurrection, He meets two men on their way to Emmaus. These disciples need to hear the teaching He provides from scripture concerning Himself.

Great Gulf

The rich man in Luke 16 had a life of comfort and ease, while in eternity he suffered only torments. Why did the beggar Lazarus experience exactly the opposite? 

Made Nigh

When we were without God in the world, Christ died for us. He washed away our sins and made it possible for us to have a relationship with His Father. 

Have Not Charity

In Christian ministry our speaking, gifts, understanding, and even our faith mean nothing if we have not charity. We discuss what that means in this episode.

He Hath Declared Him

The God of heaven came to earth to dwell among men. Our passage of the day talks about this "Word made flesh," who came to die in our place on a cross.

With Gladness

We spend some time in a well-known Psalm on this edition. It encourages believers to sing, serve, thank, praise, and bless the Lord. Because He is good.

Given to Idolatry

The city of Athens was wholly given to idolatry. Paul took an opportunity he was provided there to teach people about Jesus, the Son of the One True God.

Led of the Spirit

The works of the flesh and the works of the Spirit are opposites. They are contrary. But what do these works look like? Today we find out from Galatians 5.

In All This

The story of Job is a difficult one to read and identify with. He faced calamity, disaster, hardship, and pain, but did not charge God foolishly in all this.

The Right Hand

Jesus is the express image of God's person, the Son of God, without equal, and worthy of worship. And He is the focus of the first six verses in Hebrews.

Exceedingly Mad

Paul stands before King Agrippa in Acts 26. He tells of his fury against the disciples, which he maintained until the day he met Jesus on the Damascus road.

Yielding Fruit

According to Jeremiah 17, a person who trusts in the Lord can be compared to a tree planted by the river, which is strong and yielding fruit, even in days of adversity.

For My Sake

Jesus warned His disciples of persecution in Matthew 10. He told them to be "wise as serpents" and "harmless as doves," in a world that sought their lives.

The Mountains Quake

The king of Assyria plotted to conquer Jerusalem. In Nahum 1, we discover why he utterly failed when he met the One before whom the mountains quake.

Great Persecution

The disciples we meet in Acts 8 are experiencing great persecution. They escape threat, not merely to preserve their lives, but to continue their ministries.

Judgement and Justice

A queen came from Arabia to prove one of God's servants with hard questions in I Kings 10. She discovered his wisdom was given by the One True God. 

As Dear Children

Believers in Christ should be followers of God - pleasing Him - as dear children. We should avoid those things that dishonor Him, according to Ephesians 5.

With Thanksgiving

There are difficult instructions for believers in Philippians 4. Among them, avoid being anxious, go to God in every circumstance, and do so with thanksgiving.
