The Micah Young Podcast

In this episode, I continue exploring the reality of grace through one of the greatest mysteries revealed in Scripture: Christ in you, the hope of glory. Drawing from Colossians 1, I share how the Christian life was never meant to be lived through self-effort, religious performance, or dependence on our own understanding. Instead, God invites us into a life of intimate dependence on Christ living...

What does it actually look like to live in grace — not just know about it, but experience it daily? In this message, I'll walk us through what practical grace-based living really means: moving from performance and fear into the constant awareness of God's love, approval, kindness, and presence.

What if the fruit of the Spirit isn't something you're supposed to produce? In this message, we explore Colossians 1 and discover that spiritual fruit grows naturally when we become aware of the grace God has already placed within us through Christ. Rather than striving to become more loving, patient, or kind, Scripture points us to a different way—a life of abiding in Christ and allowing His life...

In this episode, I want to take a step back and remind us why we are doing this podcast in the first place. What is the purpose behind Learning Christ Ministries? What are we actually after? Drawing from Ephesians 4:20–21, I share how “learning Christ” is not about gathering more information about Him, but experiencing Him firsthand. There is a big difference between knowing about God and actually...

In this episode, I want to continue unpacking the reality of grace by focusing on what it truly means to be a new creation in Christ. Not an improved version of who we were, but a completely new person. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:17 and Romans 6, I share how the old self wasn’t repaired or restored, but crucified, buried, and replaced with an entirely new nature born of God. I also challenge a c...

In this episode, I continue talking about the reality of God’s grace and what it truly means for our daily lives. Many of us understand grace as receiving what we don’t deserve—but we rarely ask what we actually received. Grace is not just forgiveness or a theological idea. It is the life and power of Christ given to us. When Paul asked God to remove the thorn in his flesh, the Lord answered, “My...

In this episode, I share what the Father has been revealing to me about grace and the powerful work God does when someone becomes a child of God. Salvation is not simply learning new information or trying harder to live a better life. Scripture shows that God Himself pursues us, draws us, gives us faith, makes us alive, and seals us with His Spirit. So if God has done all of this, what happens if...

In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, I want to talk with you about grief, comfort, and something we don’t often talk about—relief. I begin in 2 Corinthians 1:2–4, where Paul describes God as the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort. For a long time, I thought Paul’s words were just a familiar greeting. But as I’ve reflected on grace, I’ve come to see that they carry much deeper mean...

What do you do when you’re walking with God… but still don’t know what’s next? In this episode, Micah unpacks a powerful passage from Isaiah 50 and speaks directly to seasons of uncertainty, confusion, and waiting. This isn’t about moral failure or spiritual rebellion—but about those moments when you’re obeying God and still feel like you’re walking in the dark. Through Scripture, biblical example...

In this powerful teaching, Micah continues unpacking the richness of God’s grace—moving beyond theological agreement into practical experience. Drawing from passages in Ephesians 1, 2 Corinthians 9, and 2 Peter 1, he clarifies that grace is not merely God’s kindness toward us but the fullness of Christ’s life extended to us: His patience, peace, forgiveness, love, kindness, self-control, and every...

In this episode, Micah continues his deep dive into the transformative power of grace—not as a theological idea, but as a lived reality. Drawing from Colossians 1:3–6, he unpacks why so many believers understand grace for salvation yet struggle to live from the grace God has already placed within them. Through practical examples, Micah illustrates how embracing grace transforms our daily battles w...

When faith meets mental illness, what happens next? In this moving conversation, Micah Young talks with PJ, who opens up about her powerful journey — from battling eating disorders and postpartum depression to finding freedom in Christ.

We often think about God’s presence as something we have to find, achieve, or stir up. But what if the truth is much simpler? In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, Micah unpacks a foundational but often overlooked reality: God is here. Not in the past where regrets and disappointments linger. Not in the future where fear and worry pull us. Not in the speculations of our imagination. He is he...

We often talk about grace as the way we’re saved. But what if grace was never meant to stop at salvation? In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, we explore how grace is more than a theological concept—it’s the framework for our everyday life. Micah shares how his understanding of grace has shifted from a doctrine he believed to a reality he now lives in, drawing from 2 Corinthians 9:8 and oth...

In today’s world, we have access to endless Bible teaching. But no matter how good the sermon or how wise the preacher is, nothing can replace the voice of the Holy Spirit living in you. In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, we explore what it means to make the Holy Spirit your primary teacher. While God has given us the gift of teaching in the Body of Christ, He never intended for us to dep...

Living from God’s purpose isn’t a one-time decision. It’s a posture—a daily choice to glorify the Father in every situation, relationship, and decision. In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, we continue the conversation on purpose and go deeper into what it means to intentionally choose to live for God’s glory. It’s not about rededication or self-effort. It’s about remembering who you are in...

What if the life you’ve been striving for is already within you? In this episode of the Micah Young Podcast, we explore a life-changing truth: The riches of God in Christ Jesus aren’t far off or theoretical—they’re already present within every believer.

In this transformative follow-up to “Why I Can’t See,” we continue exploring Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 1. This time, we focus on verses 18–21, where he prays that the eyes of our hearts would be enlightened. But what does that really mean—and how do we experience it? We talk about how enlightenment is not just about gaining insight—it’s about becoming aware of the very real presence, power, and p...

In this powerful episode, we unpack Ephesians 1:18–21, where Paul prays that the eyes of our hearts would be enlightened. But what keeps us from seeing clearly in the first place? Why do we so often feel distant from God's presence and unaware of His blessings? We explore how leaning on our own reasoning and experiences can darken our hearts and blind us to the unseen realm of God's provision. But...

In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the heart of Ephesians 1:15–17, where Paul prays that we would receive a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God.

We explore the difference between man’s perspective and God’s perspective, and h...
