The Path Pod

This week Derrick and Jason consider the fact that the arrival of Jesus on earth is a jumping off point for scientific discovery on earth. While the world would have us believe that science and Christianity are antithetical to each other, nothing could be further from the truth. We are to live a life that shows the world around us that Jesus is real.   Join the conversation at thepath@lafayettefir...

This week Derrick and Jason discuss how Jesus inspires us as his followers to create and be creative in every aspect of life. Join the discussion at thepath@lafayettefirst.life

This week Derrick and Jason discuss celebrating Easter and how the testimony of John in his gospel points to the validity of Jesus. He did amazing things, and we can trust in him now because of what we know that he has done. Jesus is still at work today, and we celebrate the fact that our Savior is alive and reigning today.

Derrick and Jason discuss how Jesus came onto the scene at the exact time that God had planned for him to arrive on earth. God had painted the picture of redemption through the prophets, and he empowers us to move forward through the Holy Spirit.   Join in the conversation this week by emailing us at thepath@lafayettefirst.life

This week Derrick and Jason look at the prophetic fuse that led up to Jesus being on the earth. The prophets of the Old Testament testified and prophesied to the fact that the Messiah would come to earth and act in very specific and certain ways. Jesus was the perfect fulfillment of every single prophecy about the Messiah from the Old Testament. Join the guys as they discuss the implications of th...

This week Derrick and Jason discuss Paul's approach to sharing the gospel in Acts 17 at the Areopagus in Athens, Greece. The way that he weaves together a presentation of the gospel with the observations he makes about the Athenian people is very instructive for us today as followers of Christ. It also shows that Jesus is more than just another entry into the savior myth genre.

This week Derrick and Jason consider how the wisdom of Jesus is more than simply good advice for living in the world. We cannot come into contact with the real Jesus and just go about our life as if nothing has changed. He is more than an ancient sage.

This week Derrick and Jason look at a sobering passage in Revelation 14:14–20. The harvest that takes place in this passage should compel us outward to share the truth of the gospel with those God has given us influence over. No matter what the outcome may be, the task that God has placed before us as his followers does not change. The Great Commission still applies today as much as it did in the...

This week Derrick and Jason break down the messages from the angels in Revelation 14:6-13. It is a heavy passage, but we find hope and encouragement as followers of Christ in this passage.

This week Derrick and Jason look at the first five verses of Revelation 14. We get a reprieve in the action and a powerful reminder that Jesus is the conquering Lamb who stands firm on Mount Zion. This truth should cause us to worship more deeply and snd us out to share the truth of the gospel more boldly.

This week Derrick and Jason dig into the entirety of Revelation 13. There is a powerful call for followers of Christ to both endure through life difficulties and live with wisdom in applying the truth of Scripture to our lives.   Join in the conversation by emailing the guys at thepath@lafayettefirst.life

This week Derrick and Jason dig in to Revelation 13 as we see that God calls us to stand firm in our faith and endure for the sake of the gospel in the face of really difficult circumstances. They also talk about how God gives us the strength we need to stand through all of life.

This week Derrick and Jason wrap up the Lost Art of Gratitude series with a discussion of how Jesus calls us out of self-reliance and into dependency on him.
