Digging Deeper with Mandy & Erica

1 Peter 2:5a ALIVE, BUILT UP, SET APART In a few simple words, Peter portrays a special relationship Christians have with God through Jesus; we are set apart for special privileges simply by our position.  As is our passion, we dig deep this week searching for the true, powerful implications of Scripture on our lives.  In this podcast we face questions such as: what exactly does “spiritually dead”...

1 Peter 2:5b SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES With the special access to God and privileges we enjoy through our relationship with Jesus, we are expected to offer up “spiritual sacrifices”.  In this podcast, we walk through some practical examples of what that could look like in our everyday lives. Interestingly enough, however, not all sacrifices are accepted by God.  God is the same yesterday, today, and to...

1 Peter 2:9-12 ALL FOR YOU Sometimes in our Christian walk, we forget or just “get used to” the basics of Christianity: that our salvation is not of ourselves, but a gift of God.  We need to remember the mercy God first had on us, His possession He now has on us, and the work He has planned to do through us.  Our lives are all for His glory and the hope to come to those who are still lost.  Join u...

Submission to the Government Today, our podcast crosses paths with a "taboo" topic: submission to government authorities.  As much as we would like to skip pass this subject and just focus on the more heart-warming and less convicting parts of Scripture, we just can't do that.  We can't pick and choose the parts of Scripture we want to study, understand, and obey. Watch our vid...

The Bible is very clear about the meekness and humility of Jesus, to empty Himself of His glory and willingly lay down His life for the sake of others.  Peter tells us that was an example for us today.  Do we willingly empty ourselves of our rights and lay down our strengths, all for conscience sake towards Jesus and to the benefit of others?  Or do we find ourselves fighting for the worldly comfo...

Peter continues his exhortation to Christians to pursue lives of quiet submission and peace, even when those in authoritative positions are unreasonable.  In these verses, he narrows his focus specifically to wives in unequally yoked marriages.  Join us in this podcast as we discuss the beauty God’s originally designed role for women, the Fall of Eve that ushered in an unrelenting internal battle...

This is a tale of a solid stone.  To some a corner stone which never disappoints; to others a stumbling stone which will eventually crush them. In this podcast we dig deep into these metaphors (breaking our hearts in the process).  Which stone is Jesus to you? How can you tell? Grab your hard hat, we’re going deep!

1 Peter 1:17 God the FATHER & God the JUDGE It's important to remember that the God of the Bible is both a loving father and a righteous judge.  We cannot separate these two titles of God in our Christian walk.  Peter tells us in 1 Peter 1:17 that we ought to remember this, and in doing so "conduct ourselves in fear during our stay on the earth." How does information lead to bib...
