We must make sure we test and try the spirits to be sure they are of God. This means the music we sing, the podcasts we listen to, the preachers who teach us the Bible. We must make sure to test all things, then hold on to the things which are good and just. Don’t fall victim to false teachings. Not everything that has a Christian label on it is good for us.

In First Thessalonians 5, Paul gives us a list of things that we need to apply to our lives if we want to live for Jesus.

In James 1:22-25, we’re reminded that faith is not just about hearing God’s Word—it’s about living it. Too often, we can nod along in agreement during a sermon or Bible reading, yet walk away unchanged. In this episode, we explore how to bridge the gap between knowing and doing, so that we become people whose lives reflect the truth we believe. God’s Word is a mirror showing us who we are and who we can be through Christ—let’s not walk away and forget the reflection.

Songs can powerfully remind us of who we are in Jesus, but they can also mix truth with phrases that need biblical clarity. In this episode, we’ll explore how Scripture confirms our identity as God’s children, loved beyond measure, made in His image, and freed from the lies of the enemy. We’ll also address common misunderstandings—like thinking we earn God’s pride through performance or that He accepts us without desiring to transform us. The goal is to embrace the beauty of God’s truth while keeping our theology anchored in His Word.

James reminds us that many of life’s struggles and conflicts begin in our own hearts. We chase what we want, we quarrel, and we often seek fulfillment apart from God. But the answer isn’t found in striving—it’s in surrender. In this episode, we’ll look at how humility, repentance, and submission to God lead to true peace. When we resist the devil and turn our hearts toward the Lord, He promises to draw near to us and lift us up in His grace.

In a world filled with competing voices and self-centered thinking, James points us to a higher way—the wisdom that comes from above. This wisdom is pure, peaceable, gentle, and full of mercy, producing good fruit in our lives. In this episode, we’ll explore how God calls us to reject the envy and selfish ambition that lead to disorder, and instead walk in the humility and peace that reflect His character. When we seek His wisdom, we not only make better choices—we become living testimonies of His grace.

The tongue is small, but its impact is mighty. In this episode, we explore how our speech can guide lives like a bridle guides a horse, or set entire worlds aflame. God’s Word reminds us that the condition of our hearts is revealed through the words we speak. As followers of Christ, we are called to speak with grace, truth, and love—offering life instead of harm. Together, we’ll uncover the heart transformation needed to tame the tongue and let our words honor the One we serve.

Is salvation by faith alone, or do our works play a role? In this episode, we dive into the tension between Paul’s teaching on grace and James’s challenge that faith without works is dead. We’ll explore how these two powerful truths complement—not contradict—each other. Join us as we unpack what real, saving faith looks like, and how our actions reveal the heart of what we believe.

In this episode, we dive into James 2:1–13 and confront a hard truth: partiality has no place in the life of a believer. Why do we tend to favor the rich or powerful? How does this contradict the gospel of grace? James calls us to live out our faith with integrity, showing mercy over judgment and loving our neighbor as ourselves. Join us as we explore what it means to live under the “law of liberty” and reflect the heart of God in how we treat others — whether rich or poor, seen or unseen.

What is it that truly draws hearts to Jesus? In today’s episode, we explore 5 powerful ways God draws people into a life-changing relationship with Him—through love, truth, hope, conviction, and testimony. Whether you’re seeking to know Jesus more or hoping to help others find Him, this episode offers biblical insight and encouragement for the journey of faith. Join us as we reflect on how God uses His Word, the Holy Spirit, life experiences, and personal stories to bring people into His Kingdom.

Why do so many people resist the life-changing message of Jesus? In this episode, we explore the deeper issues of the heart and mind that can keep someone from embracing the truth of the gospel. Whether you’re seeking understanding or looking for ways to reach others with compassion and clarity, this conversation sheds light on the spiritual barriers that stand in the way—and how God can break through them.

From the crowd shouting “Crucify Him!” in Mark 15, to Joshua’s bold call, “Choose this day whom you will serve,” to King Agrippa’s near-conversion in Acts 26—Scripture reminds us that every heart stands at a crossroads. In this episode, we reflect on the urgency of choosing Jesus—not someday, but today. Indecision is still a decision. Delayed obedience is still disobedience. The question isn’t just historical—it’s personal: Will you follow Him, or walk away? Don’t wait. The choice is yours… and it matters for eternity.

In this episode, we explore the profound biblical commandment to honor our parents, rooted in both Old and New Testament teachings. From the foundational law in Exodus 20:11 and Deuteronomy 5:16, to the solemn warning in Deuteronomy 27:16, and the New Testament reinforcement in Ephesians 6:1-3, we uncover the spiritual weight and blessing attached to honoring our father and mother. We’ll also reflect on Jesus’ personal example in John 19:26-27 and His broader teaching in Matthew 12:48, where we learn how honor and obedience transcend bloodlines to reflect God’s heart. Join us for a thoughtful, Scripture-rich conversation on what it truly means to live out this commandment today.

Jesus said in John 3:19-20 that men loved their sin more than God. That people stayed away from God because they didn’t want their evil deeds exposed. These warnings are still present today. In todays episode, I look at two recent events that happened in the world, and show how they relate to the words of Jesus. Keep praying and sharing Jesus with those around you.

In Luke 17:1–5, Jesus speaks some of His most challenging words—warnings about causing others to stumble, commands to forgive repeatedly, and a call to live by faith. In this episode, we explore what it means to walk in humility, extend forgiveness without limit, and trust God when obedience feels too hard. If you’ve ever struggled to forgive—or to believe you can—this episode will help you lean into the strength that comes through faith in Christ.

Luke 15 gives us a glimpse into the heart of God—a Father who searches, a Shepherd who pursues, and a Savior who rejoices over the found. In this episode, we reflect on the parables of the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son. Whether you’re wandering, waiting, or wondering if God still sees you, be reminded: He hasn’t stopped looking. Let this be an invitation to rest in His relentless grace and come home to joy.

In this episode, we dive deep into Jeremiah 2:13 (KJV) — “For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.” What does it mean to forsake the fountain of living waters? How do we, even today, create “broken cisterns” in our lives? Join us as we unpack this powerful verse, exploring its historical context, spiritual implications, and practical relevance. It’s a call to return to the source — to God Himself — and to stop seeking satisfaction in things that ultimately leave us dry and empty.

The end of Luke 18:8 says, “Nevertheless when the Son of Man come the, shall he find faith on the earth?” We look at Luke 18:1-26 and talk about faith. How can you make sure you have the faith that Jesus is looking for.

John 6 is a chapter of hard teachings by Jesus. How do you handle hard teaching in the Bible. In this chapter, people quite following Jesus because the teachings were too hard for them to comprehend. When hard teachings come (and they will), that is not the time to abandon your faith. It’s time to dig in, pray and seek the answers you are looking for.

In Jeremiah 2, God is talking about the faithlessness of Israel. He is asking Israel why they have turned their back on God, and chased after things that are worthless. Here we are, thousands of years later, and people are still turning their back on God. Have you?
