Send us Fan Mail Evangelistic work is the outflow of relationship with God, the natural outflow of following Jesus and Jesus making you a fisher of men. So prayer is not something to be penciled into our schedule, Scripture commands us to pray without ceasing. This is only really possible if you’re born again, because God is always with you no matter what you do, so prayer naturally arises because...

Send us Fan Mail Prayer and evangelism - both go hand in hand, they form a precious relationship because both of them naturally arise from a relationship with God. Scripture calls us to pray without ceasing, and it is near and dear to the heart of God. He instructs us through His Word how to pray and evangelize. Join us in Luke 11 for this first part of our series on these two crucial elements of...

If you're born again, walking in Christ and walking in obedience to Christ, being sanctified by Christ, these are all just who you are. There's abundant life, fruitfulness, and growing, that comes out of your love for the Lord. It's not a huge, difficult thing to live your life accor...

Send us Fan Mail If you're born again, walking in Christ and walking in obedience to Christ, being sanctified by Christ, these are all just who you are. There's abundant life, fruitfulness, and growing, that comes out of your love for the Lord. It's not a huge, difficult thing to live your life according to His desires and will. Love is the motivation for obedience, worship, everyth...

Send us Fan Mail We continue to look at the critical difference between wanting Jesus, and wanting Jesus to do stuff for you, to give you things, to benefit you.  John 6:35 says that Jesus is the bread of life. Those who come to Jesus, we're not hungry, we're not thirsty. We need Him, not His stuff. You need healing, emotional help, wealth, comfort, those are all temporal things, and eve...

Send us Fan Mail We look at John 6, and the all-too-common trend of seeking Jesus' stuff rather than Jesus Himself. Do you walk in the will of God? Do you seek Jesus because you want something He can offer, or because you desire Jesus? It's a sobering reality that, even in our churches, this often occurs today.  Support the show NEW BOOK!

Send us Fan Mail God is real whether you believe in Him or not. He is alive, He has moved, and He continues to move in this world. He uses people to reach people, but it's not the people talking about their ideas, it's the people who are preaching the Word of God, living according to the Word of God, and giving you the Word of God.  Support the show NEW BOOK!

Send us Fan Mail It is not God's will for the church to start adopting the world's philosophies, its political battles, but rather to lean upon God. It is His design to lean on Him, to walk with Him, to be the beautiful picture of a bride leaning on her husband.  Support the show NEW BOOK!

Send us Fan Mail We continue with part two of this series on the "strange things" described by Luke 5:26. The men described in this passage go to some extraordinary means to get close to Jesus. They don't come to Him to criticize, to use Him, with a selfish desire. They come with faith, and He responds based on their faith.  Why then must so many Christians be constantly poked, prod...

Send us Fan Mail As we look at Luke 5:17-26 we see that Jesus has come not to condemn, but to heal. To become our sins, die on the cross, and make a way for lost and dying sinners to be reconciled to God.  There are many who have a great deal of religious knowledge, who have done a great deal of religious work. But this work does not earn us standing before God.  Whether or not you have religious...

Send us Fan Mail When we say that Jesus is the answer for everything, we're not being hokey, we're not being corny, it's not wishful thinking. In times of turmoil, Jesus Christ gives real peace, real physical, emotional, psychological healing like the world is never able to give. He is the Prince of Peace, the almighty God. He gives peace, and the way He does that is by dealing with...

Send us Fan Mail In today's America, there's so much upheaval. So much shaking. Socially, politically, physically, so much is changing. But the Word of God does not change. The God who gave that Word does not change. We are instructed to worship Christ no matter what is going on on the outside, no matter the tribulation. We're called, not to take sides, but to worship Christ and go...

Send us Fan Mail Part 2 of our series on the trend toward being willing to discuss broad theological topics, but never willing to actually talk about how they specifically apply in our lives. What about you before God?" "Where are you before God?" When we start to get specific, the walls often start to come up, and everyone becomes a theologian.  Support the show NEW BOOK! I'm...

Send us Fan Mail Most people will be fine talking with you about the love of God, about creation, about the "broad-brush" theological concepts. But when you start talking about sin, the holiness of God, how the love of God is manifest in Jesus dying on the cross for our sin, things start to shift. "What about you before God?" "Where are you before God?"  When we start...

Send us Fan Mail There's a difference between the works of the flesh and the fruits of the Spirit.  For those who are not in Christ, the natural result of our lives is sin. For those who are born again, who have had the blood of Jesus applied, the Holy Spirit is alive within us. You plant watermelons, you get watermelons. You plant pumpkins, you get pumpkins. You plant tomatoes, you get tomat...

Send us Fan Mail When Christ became your sin, your flesh (spiritually speaking) was crucified with Him. He took the sin of the world, and in doing so, He took your personal sin. That sacrifice was applied to you if you are in Christ. We are therefore no longer slaves to that sin, we have been given conviction to show us when we are in sin. In that conviction, He treats us like sons and daughters,...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus is not a created being. Not the brother of lucifer. Not just a prophet or teacher. Not a rabbi. Not a pretender, not delusional, not a charlatan. Jesus is God.  In this episode, we expand further on who Jesus is, according to John 8:58. Support the show NEW BOOK!

Send us Fan Mail There's a Catholic "jesus," a Jehovah's Witness "jesus", an Islam "jesus," a protestant "jesus." But there's a fundamental difference between knowing "a" jesus and knowing "the" Jesus.  Today, we study John 8:58, and look at who THE Jesus really is. Idol worship may seem like a foreign idea, something pract...

Send us Fan Mail Jesus has never been an idea. He is the Word. He is alive today, with God, and He is God. He has never and will never just be an idea or a philosophy or a history lesson. He is literally alive and moving. He existed before the concept of an idea ever existed.  Support the show NEW BOOK!

Send us Fan Mail We worship something at all times. If God is not the first and foremost object of that worship, something else is. Far too often, we get worship backwards, seeking an emotional response or a particular feeling, rather than seeking God first. Today, we speak with Pastor Jonathan Riddle, the Worship Pastor at Grace Baptist Tabernacle, about the definition of worship, it's found...

Send us Fan Mail We study 2 Samuel 21, near the end of David's life as he goes out for the final time into battle against the Philistines. David was a man after God's own heart. Somewhere along the line, something was passed along to the younger men. And it moved the younger men to take up the battle and the cause that had been David's for so long.  Support the show NEW BOOK! I&apos...

Send us Fan Mail We examine the nature of evangelism through the book of Daniel, and compare it to the syncretism of Babylon. Nebuchadnezzar not only took vessels sanctified and used for the worship of the Lord, and devoted them to his own god, but also removed the "best" of the children from Israel to re-educate them to serve him.  Take a look with us at the ministry of Daniel, from the...

Send us Fan Mail Though we are naturally strangers to holiness, God has not kept it in secrecy. We turn again to 1 Peter 1. God's love is a holy love and drives Him to relationship. He desires to re-establish the relationship that was broken by sin. God made a way for it to be as though sin never happened. A way according to His holiness, His goodness, His justice, His mercy, His longsufferin...

Send us Fan Mail God's love is holy, God's love is relational, and God's love is covering. In this episode, we continue to look at 1 Peter 1, and the holiness of God. He is without sin, pure, upright. We are naturally strangers to this. Yet in His love and His mercy, He still desires relationship.  Support the show NEW BOOK!
