Joy in the Midst of the Storm Podcast

We live in a world where we spend a great deal of time determining what's true from fake. Oftentimes, we come to this conclusion based on what sounds right to us personally. However, this is a very dangerous thought process, as we must consider God at all times and what He says! After all, we have been persuaded many times and have been wrong! Why? We are human, often incorrect, but God is true, a...

It becomes increasingly easy to praise God after we see how much He has done for us. Without His knowledge and insight, our lives become miserable, and we attempt to measure our lives side by side with others. Join us as we search the Scriptures and focus on what the Lord has done so that we may learn to bless Him at all times!  Focus: Psalms 116:12  All Verses Covered: Psalms 103:1-8, 116:12  Ori...

There are many things that happen in our lives that cause us to think the worst. It's natural because many of these situations appear very scary and life-altering, and there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel. However, in Christ, we have assurance of better things to come. He makes all things new, and we find out that whatever is going on, it's merely the beginning!  Focus: John 11:25 ...

As people, we struggle with keeping our attention and focus where it should be. How often has this happened to you?

We pray this causes us all to take heed of the things that truly matter!  Focus: Matthew 23:23  All Verses Covered: Matthew 23:23-24, Luke 10:38-42, 11:37-40, John 12:1-7  Original Air D...

Have you received the Holy Ghost? Do you really know? If not, you have an opportunity to receive the greatest gift God gave us! How can we say that? Christ was sent into the world to die for us. After He was resurrected and left the Earth, He sent back the same Spirit to live in us for all of eternity. Will you receive it is the question?  Focus: John 20:22  All Verses Covered: John 16:7-8, 20:22-...

How were you baptized? Last week, we spent time proving to you that you should be baptized, and this week, we will show you according to Scripture how it should be done. These instructions were given, taught, and carried out by the Master Jesus Himself, then passed down to the apostles and brothers He chose. Will you take heed?  Focus: Matthew 28:19  All Verses Covered: Matthew 28:19, John 10:30-3...

In life, there are things we simply have to do. Who determines this? God alone is responsible for setting the rules! It is our job as His children to follow them. As people, we have many different opinions and beliefs on what is necessary, but if we desire to follow God, we must find out what He says. So this week, we look again at what He says. The aim is that we would all be doers of the Word an...

The voice of God has gone out into the world. Those that belong to Him take heed to what He says.

God has told us time and time again that His Word is true! The Scripture must be fulfilled. There are two sides: those who are obedient to the Word and those who are not. Our hope is that we would all align with every word that God has set forth concerning our lives. We must be saved! Lord, help us to listen to every word You’ve spoken!  Focus: Matthew 4:4  All Verses Covered: Matthew 4:4, Daniel...

God does not want evil to happen to us. In fact, that's exactly what His Word came to protect us from! Sadly, things do happen that we wish did not, but through it all, we do not have to be lost. God has seen fit to redeem us and save us from death and hell. So why should we die? Why choose separation from God? We can live and not die!  Focus: 2 Peter 3:9  All Verses Covered: 2 Peter 3:9-10, Matth...

There are some things we all go through! Our problems tend to become magnified, and the problems of others become small in our eyes. Furthermore, we start to believe that we have things much worse than others, comparing our lives with theirs based on what we can see. The Scripture provides comfort to let us know we're not alone—others have faced problems, have struggled, and have also overcome wha...

Have you ever felt that you could not carry on? Sure, this is a natural feeling, but what we need is supernatural encouragement from the Lord to assure us that we can survive whatever it is we're dealing with! Join us as we read about those who have also endured many trials and tribulations. Surely, the Lord will deliver us, too!  Focus: Psalms 121:1-2  All Verses Covered: Psalms 121:1-2, Numbers...

We live in a world where some have more and others have less. Some can paint, sing, multiply, speak, or excel in school! The list goes on and on, as we see everyone has their own abilities and gifts from the Lord. But what the Scripture does make clear is that no matter what someone has, the focus we should have is maximizing it and making the best of it! Our situation won’t remain the same always...

God has a purpose. Does it fit our plan? Of course not! He's the Potter; He has designed us as He so desired. Oftentimes, we wonder, what is our purpose here in life? What were we created to do? Tune in with us as we allow God to tell us exactly what the answer is!  Focus: 2 Timothy 1:8-9  All Verses Covered: 2 Timothy 1:8-9, 1 Corinthians 12:14-17, Isaiah 58:5-7, Matthew 25:41-43  Original Air Da...

Last week, we began discussing prayer and how Jesus taught us to do so. This week, we will continue exploring its importance! Our goal is to learn what to pray for and what not to pray for. Time is short; we don’t have the luxury of wasting it, so here we are, taking another dive into the Word to get closer to our Creator!  Focus: 1 John 5:15-17  All Verses Covered: 1 John 5:14-16, Luke 18:1,9-14 ...

How do you pray? In the Word, we find that God tells us we don't even know what we should be praying for! Of course, we pray for things we personally want, but as we grow in the Lord, we begin to think of what He wants! He wants us to know the proper way to pray!  Focus: Luke 11:1  All Verses Covered: Luke 11:1-2, 18:1-7, Hebrews 11:6-8  Original Air Date: March 26, 2026  We have bible studies via...

Being discouraged is one of the worst things that can happen to us. It causes us to miss out on the blessings of God. Who would want to miss out on all of the good things the Lord has to offer? Sadly, this happens when we become disheartened. All of the words of God suddenly go out of the window. Let’s learn from what has taken place in the past to fight against the spirit of discouragement and fe...

There are things that the Lord has declared He will do for us. With this being the case, we should not fret; He will handle His business. God has never broken a promise, and He never will. In this week’s Bible study, we will look at a familiar passage in hopes that we will examine ourselves to see if we are behaving the same way the person we will read about behaved.  Focus: Luke 12:26  All Verses...

It is important for the people of God to not only be born again but to continue in His Word!

There comes a point in all of our lives when we begin to ask the Lord for help. And you know, when things get really serious, we ask for His help right now! We want Him to listen to us, and very often He does... but do we listen to Him?  Focus: Psalms 102:1  All Verses Covered: Psalms 102:1-2, Nehemiah 1:11, Jeremiah 7:13-18  Original Air Date: February 19, 2026  We have bible studies via Zoom eve...

Wise words from the Apostle Paul as he instructs the children of God to walk in the power of God! When we walk in the Spirit of God, our actions are completely different! The things we used to do, we find ourselves not doing anymore. When we used to hate, we now show love. It’s amazing how the Lord steps into a situation, shines a light, and now we can see why He instructed us to live holy. There...

The Lord is everywhere! He sees what we have done, and He can even tell us what we shall do. It’s safe to say that the Lord cannot be tricked or fooled. With this being the case, we might as well come clean! We always say the Lord knows our heart, and you know what, we are right about that part!  Focus: Matthew 5:1-2  All Verses Covered: Matthew 5:1-2, Mark 3:1-6, Romans 14:1-3  Original Air Date:...

Power… a word that means so much, yet sometimes we fail to understand it. The Word tells us that the Lord has all the power, but why does it feel like this isn’t the case at times? Be assured, the Lord is able to do whatever is needed. But can we trust Him?  Focus: Psalms 62:11  All Verses Covered: Psalms 62:11, John 19:10-11, Daniel 2:20-21, 3:27  Original Air Date: January 29, 2026  We have bibl...

As we look at the world, we realize we need healing all over! Wars, rumors of wars, sickness, financial distress—there is so much tension that plagues mankind!

He will heal the lands!  Focus: 2 Chronicles 7:14  All Verses Covered: 2 Chronicles 7:11-16  Original Air Date: January 22, 2026  W...
