To God The Glory
Conversations in Luke and Acts—so that you may have certainty. In 2025, Friendship Baptist Church in Sturgis, MS is walking through the books of Luke and Acts—one chapter a week, all year. Originally titled That You May Have Certainty (Luke 1:4), this podcast unpacks the historical accounts Luke wrote to strengthen the faith of Theophilus and all who follow Jesus. Now renamed To God The Glory, the heart behind the series remains the same: to explore God's Word together—honestly, hopefully, and always pointing back to the One worthy of glory in every circumstance.
