One of the great things about being a Christian is having the confidence that God has a plan for everything that comes our way in life. So we have every reason in the world to trust Him! We'll be reminded on a Daily Walk that having the right perspective makes all the difference. It frees us to focus on going deeper in our relationship with the Lord.

You're seated next to someone on a plane, or someone knocks on your front door, and all of a sudden you're in a conversation about spiritual beliefs.

It's no secret that Christians in the past faced persecution. They certainly did in Peter's day! The first century Roman world was hostile to Christianity to put it mildly. And we face it today in growing measure. It's one of our enemy's ploys to keep us from advancing in the faith. So how should we respond? First Peter chapter three answers that for us.

Marriages, even Christian marriages, are falling apart left and right. Some are on the brink of a divorce, and others are unhappy to say the least. Is there any hope? I'm glad to say there is, if we'll embrace and live by God's principles laid out before us in First Peter chapter three. Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall has a heart to heart talk with husbands and encourages us to receive our role gladly and treat our wives as God would have us.

In Romans chapter seven the apostle Paul said, “O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?” Don't you feel like that sometimes?

It should characterize our lives because love is found in our Savior! Today on a Daily Walk we'll pause to consider the greatest love of all, demonstrated by God.

When a trial comes into our lives, it's common to experience a number of emotions. From fear, to worry, or even anger. And those emotions if we're not careful can distort our thinking and lead us to wrong decisions. Pastor John Randall suggests testing every thought by the Word of God, especially during trials. He'll explain why as we move along today in our study of First Peter. Today on a Daily Walk we're learning what it takes to win the battle of the mind.

Today we resume a study of First Peter. We left off in chapter one. Think with us about all that we're saved from… death and judgment. But also let's not forget what we're saved for… an eternity with Jesus! Could it get any better than that? We're hoping you'll walk away from today's study seeing how greatly blessed you are in Christ, and how great a salvation you've been given.

Staying focused on Jesus, and our great salvation will help us make it through whatever may come our way.

When life goes from bad to worse you might be tempted to think you're really not saved. It's during those times of suffering we need reassurance of our sure salvation, and First Peter provides just that. If you're truly a Christian God wants you to know you're salvation is secure and nothing or no one can take it away. Today on a Daily Walk that encouraging truth comes to our attention, as pastor John Randall revisits 1 Peter chapter one.

Have you ever received a note of encouragement right in the midst of great suffering? A well spoken word at just the right time can go a long way. And that's what we find in the epistle of First Peter. It was written to Christians who were unjustly persecuted, and encountering fiery trials. We can benefit from the letter too, and receive God's encouragement and instruction for the difficult seasons of life. Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall speaks of a living hope. It belongs to you if you're a believer in Christ, and it cannot be taken away. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1368/29?v=20251111

Typically Christians either believe God elects some for salvation, or that man is responsible and has the freedom to choose to be saved. But is it possible God's sovereignty and man's responsibility beautifully intersect somehow? While it may seem they're contradictory to one another, pastor John Randall believes they're complimentary to one another! And it's ok to admit we don't fully understand it all! Today on a Daily Walk we continue our study of First Peter! Again we're in chapter one, looking at the various reasons we can rejoice as Christians even in hard times.

Today pastor John will bring us the final message in his series through the epistle of James. As we mentioned at the beginning of this series, James is one of the most practical books in the Bible. It speaks of taming the tongue, the importance of putting our faith into real action, and dealing with the hardships of life. Today we'll be encouraged as we consider the Power of Prayer.

Our focus today turns to the soon coming of our Lord, and what we should be doing in the meantime! It would be easy for us to complain about what's going on around us. We wonder at times, when will this ever end. But today we'll see the real need for patience, much like a farmer. Keeping our eyes on Jesus, will help us navigate through trouble or turmoil on earth.

It's not hard to see, many in our world have a love and thirst for wealth. They'll do just about anything under the sun to obtain it. But today we'll observe the real danger in that sort of living.In the passage before us James confronts those who were hoarding what they have, not paying their laborers for the work they did, and their indulgence. It would be a good time for us to look in the mirror and consider our relationship to what we've been given. We'll be held accountable by God for that.

Whether we've got a big decision to make, or need some direction, we all need God's wisdom in our daily walk! And the good news is, the Lord wants to give it to us. Today on a Daily Walk pastor John Randall contrasts the wisdom that comes from below with the one that comes from above. Obviously, the greater of the two is the wisdom that comes from God and so that's the one we'll spend the bulk of our time talking about as we continue our pursuit through the book of James.

Pastor John Randall is in the midst of leading us verse by verse through James. There's probably no muscle that is harder to control than the tongue. We've all experienced saying something that later we wished we hadn't - whether it be a curse word, or something that hurt another person a great deal. It's amazing how such a small part of the body can have such a large impact. No wonder James likens it to a fire! Let's see now how God wants to help us tame the tongue.

It's happened to us all. No sooner than something comes out of our mouths, we realize we shouldn't have said that. And damage is done. Today on A Daily Walk we return to our study of James and are reminded of the power of words. They have the power to motivate millions of people to hang tough in a difficult situation, and they have the ability to cut a person to ribbons. Pastor John Randall is our teacher, and here today he'll show us what James has to say on the subject of the unbridled tongue.
