Wake Before the Day

This podcast is devoted to talking about "humility". Humility isn't thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less. Let's follow Jesus's example and discuss what humility looks like for us today.

Members look for discounts. Partners get their hands dirty and are all in on the mission. Which are you?

We're saved by grace through faith and at the same time Paul is concerned that we live fruitful lives. The question is are we? 

What is "doctrine"? What does it mean to have "sound doctrine"? Well I'm glad you asked! Titus talks about the importance of clinging to truth in turbulent times. I think we can resonate with this!

When measuring a believer's growth we're looking for character over charisma and godliness over giftedness!

We're called to: speak Jesus, know your stuff, prepare to encourage and give the hard truth and ...do so patiently!

We can't appear moral, just, kind and ignore the power that brings about real change. True change comes from following Jesus and obeying His Word.

Things may be legal but not beneficial. Instead of getting distracted with worldly things cultivate a godly life.

Fight timidity and fear with preparation. Don't mistake being quiet for being timid. Let's discuss the Spirit God gave us.

There seems to be a correlation to "coveting" and a departure from the faith. How does one become content? Check out 1 Timothy 6!

The way you live your life greatly influences those around you - for better or for worse! The first part of this chapter deals with the command to take care of the physical needs of those around you, especially family. The latter part discusses the call to spiritually walk in purity and again understand that the decisions you make today will potentially lead to generations of godliness or generati...

Diligent. Focused. Intentional. Words that should describe a believer's walk with God. Do those words apply to you?

Let's talk about leadership roles within the church and the blessing that comes when this is done well!

1 Timothy gives us words of wisdom when it comes to our attitude towards political leaders and in addition to this we're encouraged to keep our worship distraction free.

Sound doctrine (belief) and right living (action) are connected! The good news is God can redeem and restore anybody!

Paul knew the "success" of ministry in someways depended on prayer. Revisit what biblical prayer looks like and the power of God that flows from it.

Are we in the end times? What does the Bible mean when it says we're waiting for the "Day of the Lord?" We respond to these questions and find a great deal of hope knowing that God is a God of order and peace. Let's discuss 2 Thessalonians 2

God's goodness can be questioned in hard times. The early church put God's goodness on fully display despite hardship.

In this episode we'll briefly discuss the prophetic ministry, global chaos, our future and why Sam is the real hero not Frodo. (IYKYK).

I often hear from non-Christians and skeptics say, "The Bible makes God sound like some kind of power hungry dictator! Why does the Bible say we have to live to "please him"? That doesn't sound fun!"

We talk about fearing God versus fearing humanity and how that drives what we say and do. We also discuss what it means to be entrusted with the Gospel. Let's discuss 1 Thessalonians 2!

The power of God isn't only to be talked about it is to be experienced. Cling to the scriptures, take risks and share stories of God's work!

Have you ever felt like the Lord was calling you to do something or say something only for you to get a response you weren't expecting? Or for it to even "fail"? 2 Corinthians 13 talks about this. Don't be discouraged, God's always at work!
