Walking The New Testament Podcast

Hello everyone! As always, thank you for taking time out of your busy day to focus on a bit of the Word and joining me to take a look at Matthew 22! There are some great lessons to be learned in Matthew 22, but we will be focussing on one of the hardest things to do for a lot of us: Loving your neighbor. For any new listeners, if you prefer to subscribe to Walking the New Testament on your favorit...

Hello everyone! I’m so grateful you made the choice to check out another episode of WTNT! Matthew 21 is an amazing chapter. It would be easy to dive into this chapter for several hours. I chose to focus on just one part of it though. We’re going to briefly take a look at the power we have. The power we have squandered. The power we doubt. “Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not...

Hello Everyone and thanks so much for checking in for another episode of WTNT! Every chapter of Matthew has been challenging. Not because of the content, but because of the sheer volume of lessons to be learned in each of them. Fortunately, we will have opportunities to explore some of the ones we haven’t looked at as we continue in the gospels over the weeks ahead, so stay tuned! This week, I fel...

Hello everyone! Thank you for stopping by once again. This week was, again, a tough one when it comes to deciding what to talk about. There’s some very deep things mentioned by Christ in Matthew 19. That being said, we’re going to focus on “rich” people. It should be interesting. “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier fo...

Hello everyone! I’m so glad you decided to take this journey with me and that you are taking a few minutes out of your day to explore this episode. Matthew 18 is deep. Very deep. A person could probably spend hours talking about all of the advice that Jesus gave in this chapter. Today we will focus on forgiveness again. I know we talked about that a bit earlier in the book of Matthew, but I believ...

Hello Everyone! Thank you so much for checking out another episode of Walking the New Testament! Matthew 17 was another difficult one for me. There’s some really deep things going on in this chapter, but we’re going to focus on just one thing; Jesus explaining why the disciples “couldn’t” cast out a demon. Again, don’t forget you can subscribe to WTNT on Spotify, iTunes, and pretty much any podcas...

Greetings! Thank you for checking out another episode of WTNT. Matthew 16 was a difficult chapter for me because many Christians are already familiar with the content. There’s nothing groundbreaking to say about this chapter, but we’re going to take a quick look at false teachings that Christ warned us about. Don’t forget to find Walking the New Testament in Apple Podcasts or Spotify if you would...

Greetings! Thank you for checking out another episode of WTNT! This week we’ll take a peek at how easy it is for something made up by people (churches, governments, family) can turn into a “religious” act that has nothing to do with being a Christian or follower of The Way. “Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? For God said, ‘Honor your father and...

Hello and thank you for checking out another episode of WTNT! Today I’m planning to take a look at one thing that is hardly ever mentioned about the feeding of the multitudes. Don’t forget, if it is more convenient for you, you can subscribe to WTNT on Spotify, or iTunes. Just search for “Walking the New Testament” and you should be able to find it. “…They do not need to go away. You give them som...

Greetings! Thank you for checking out another episode of WTNT. Today we’ll take a peek at what Jesus had to say about those who hear and see everything going on around us, miracles, calamities, and the like, and yet still just don’t get it. Don’t forget you can subscribe to WTNT on Spotify or iTunes if it’s more convenient for you. Just search for “Walking the New Testament” and you will find it....

Hello everyone! Thank you for checking out another episode of WTNT! This week we’ll chat a bit about legalism and the way we are supposed to handle those who have taken human rules and made them more important than God’s law, and/or taken God’s law and misapplied it. I’ll do the best I can to shed a bit of light on this very important chapter of the New Testament. Don’t forget you can find Walking...

Greetings my friends! Thank you for checking in on another episode of WTNT! Today we will take a look at Jesus’ warning to countries that reject his miracles and blessings and refuse to repent.

As always, thank you for supporting my work and, more importantly, helping t...

Greetings! Thank you for checking out another episode of Walking the New Testament. This week, we are going to discuss the difficulties of being an ambassador of Christ in a fallen world. We’re all called to be witnesses of the truth. This doesn’t necessarily mean we are standing on a corner holding a sign that says “the end is near.” Sometimes, it also means living our lives in a way that points...

Greetings! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! Today we will chat a bit about how Jesus was an expert at putting the Pharisees and “Religious” leaders of his time in their place. But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” vs 13 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away...

Greetings! I trust your week has been a good one. Today we will take a look at how a gentile recognized Christ’s authority and how, in many cases, people reject the power of Christ and beg him to leave them alone. Thank you for taking time to join me for another episode of Walking the New Testament! A Centurion recognizes the authority of Christ “The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to h...

Today we’ll take a look at the end of Jesus’ sermon on the mount. I plan to talk a bit about judging others, treating others the way we want to be treated (and how Jesus said that when we do this, we are fulfilling “the law”), and finally, how simple it is to be a Christian if we will study the Sermon on the Mount and do our best to put the wisdom of this sermon into practice. “You hypocrite, firs...

Thank you for bearing with me while I took a couple of weeks to visit family and recover from the traveling. I hope you will enjoy this episode! Don’t forget, if you use Spotify, you can subscribe and/or play these in the Spotify App as well! We will be discussing being “righteous” in public and how forgiving others is a prerequisite for being forgiven ourselves. Is saying, “I forgive you, but I w...

Jesus’ sermon on the mount is actually 3 chapters long. Chapters 5 - 7. We won’t go through all 3 chapters today, of course. Here are the verses I plan to expound upon a bit today: 37 All you need to say is simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one. 42 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. *** There may be no episode...

“ 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. 9 And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 10 The ax is already at the...

7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” 12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route. 13 When they had gone, an angel o...

“But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.” Thanks for reading and Listening to Walking The New Testament!
