Autumn reminds us that endings can be beautiful. As colorful leaves fall from the trees and one season gives way to another, we are reminded that God has a purpose for every season of life. Ecclesiastes 3:1 tells us that there is “a time for every matter under heaven,” including seasons of surrender, change, and letting go. What feels like an ending may actually be God preparing our hearts for som...

We live in an age of constant distraction. Our bodies may be in one place while our minds race somewhere else, leaving us physically present but mentally and emotionally absent. What might help us recover a more attentive, peaceful way of living with God?   In this episode, Alan talks with pastor and author Jay Y. Kim about his new book, The Pace of Peace: Distraction, Attention, and the Gifts of...

Long summer days carry a particular quality of stillness — golden light that seems to shimmer in the distance, steady heat that slows the pace of everything, the world resting under an unhurried sun. It is not always dramatic or exciting. It is simply present, consistently, quietly doing its work. Gardens grow. Crops inch toward harvest. And none of it requires our attention or approval to continu...

1 Samuel 8–10 records Israel’s transition from the leadership of judges to the establishment of a monarchy. The people asked Samuel to appoint a king, God warned them about the consequences, and Saul was eventually chosen and publicly presented. These chapters expose Israel’s misplaced desire for security while also showing God’s sovereign hand at work. Israel wanted a king who would make them lik...

Evening Scripture 2 Timothy, Chapter 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, in keeping with the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus, to Timothy, my dear son: Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. I thank God, whom I serve, as my ancestors did, with a clear conscience, as night and day I constantly remember you in my prayers. Recalling your tears,...

Jesus's invitation in Matthew 11:28 is worth reading slowly. He does not say,"figure everything out and then come see Me." He does not say, "rest is waiting for you on the other side of having it all under control." He says, come . The very first thing He asks of the weary is not to resolve anything. It is to come as they are, with the weariness intact, and learn from Him how to carry life differe...

What does it really mean to love Jesus above everyone and everything else? In Luke 14:26, Jesus uses strong language to teach His followers that their devotion to Him must come before every other relationship, desire, and priority. He is not calling us to hate our families; He is calling us to love Him so completely that every other love is secondary. Following Jesus means denying ourselves, takin...

Did God take away Pharaoh’s free will? Dennis Prager explores one of the most challenging passages in Exodus, where God says He will harden Pharaoh’s heart. Does this mean Pharaoh was no longer free to choose, or is there another way to understand the text? Dennis also examines the mysterious encounter between God and Moses, the significance of circumcision in Jewish identity, and why God refers t...

Evening Scripture Zephaniah, Chapter 3 Woe to her who is rebellious and defiled, the oppressing city! She listens to no voice; she accepts no correction. She does not trust in the Lord; she does not draw near to her God. Her officials within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves that leave nothing till the morning. Her prophets are fickle, treacherous men; her priests profane what i...

Two weeks. And still, every time the words are spoken aloud, the weight of them does not lessen. A three-year-old son. Type 1 Diabetes. The insulin shots and blood sugar tests and doctor's appointments that are now simply part of what a normal Tuesday looks like. Sharing it with more people does not make it hurt less. It does not let the baby eat ice cream like other kids. No one teaches us what t...

Fall can bring beauty, but for those grieving the loss of someone they love, changing leaves can also stir painful memories.

Through Jesus’ sacrifice, we have the hope of healing, comfort, and eternal life beyond death. The death of a loved o...

Most of us know the feeling — the words left our mouth before we thought them through, and the moment they landed we wished we could pull them back. A sharp remark in an argument, a piece of gossip shared too freely, a heated message sent before we took a breath. Words carry tremendous power to encourage and to damage, and the gap between the two is often just a moment of pause we did not take. Ps...

In this conversation with Sean and Scottie McDowell, Frank walks through his own path to faith, including the Sunday morning in 1985 when a pastor answered his exact objection minutes after he slipped into the back of a church. He explains why he finds the evidence for God more compelling than the evidence for the resurrection, why embarrassing testimony persuades him more than manuscript counts,...

Are you easily offended? Dennis Prager explores how taking things personally can rob us of happiness, damage relationships, and give other people control over our emotions. While genuine mistreatment should not be ignored, Dennis argues that we must learn to distinguish between real insults and perceived slights. Through listener calls, personal examples, and insights from his book Happiness Is a...

Evening Scripture 1 Thessalonians, Chapter 3 So when we could stand it no longer, we thought it best to be left by ourselves in Athens. We sent Timothy, who is our brother and co-worker in God’s service in spreading the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith, so that no one would be unsettled by these trials. For you know quite well that we are destined for them. In fact,...
