If you've ever prayed for something… but deep down weren't sure it would actually happen, this Bible study is for you.In this episode of the Real Estate Bestie Podcast, we're walking through Luke chapter 1 and breaking down the difference between Zachariah's doubt and Mary's belief… and how that same tension shows up in our lives today.Because let's be real… It's one thing to say you believe God. It's another thing to move like you believe Him.Inside this Bible study, we talk about: • Why Zachariah got silenced (and what that reveals about doubt) • The difference between asking questions vs. not believing • What it actually means to be “blessed is she who believed” • How Mary demonstrated her faith through action • Why you need an “Elizabeth” in your life (and who you're called to be for others) • How to stop borrowing faith and start knowing God for yourselfThis isn't just about scripture… This is about how your faith shows up in your business, your calling, and your everyday decisions.Because faith without action? It's just words.✨ My prayer for you is that you become the woman in Luke 1:45… “Blessed is she who believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her.”—

Our studies in the Gospel of Luke resume in chapter 1 beginning at verse 67. Luke provides us an inspired account of both the birth of John the Baptist and of Jesus Himself. When John the Baptist was born, his Father Zachariah filled with the Spirit prophesies. He refers to God's fulfillment of His Word through the former prophets by the birth of his son John the Baptist. He also speaks that his son John would be a prophet of the Most High to provide four things. 1st, He would go before the Savior to prepare His ways. 2ndly, to give knowledge of salvation to his people by the forgiveness of sins. 3rdly, to give light to those who sit in darkness4th & lastly, to guide our feet in the way of peace.Let hear more about John, Luke 1:67, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast with Dr. Mitchell.

After Mary visited Elizabeth and received confirmation of what the angel had told her, she would now extol and bless and magnify the LORD. We are reading Luke 1:46-66. Mary extols the LORD for His fulfilled promise to Israel first spoken to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. She praised the Lord for His mercy, His strength and His might. She expressly rejoiced in her spirit calling the Lord, "God my savior." Here she acknowledges her need for a savior as all who know that sin has made them a people of humble circumstances. Dr. Mitchell says of Mary, “her heart was fully occupied with the Lord.” Are you and I occupied with the Lord Jesus and His finished work for us?Let open our Bibles and turn to Luke 1 verse 46 with our teacher, Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.

In Luke chapter 1 verse 34 the angel Gabriel answers Mary's question as to how she a virgin could bear a baby since although she was betrothed she was not yet married and had no husband.The author of Hebrews chapter 13 verse 4 the author reminds us 'let marriage be held in honor among all and the marriage bed undefiled for God will judge immorality and adultery'. This was Mary's attitude towards marriage just as Joseph's was found in Matthew chapter 1. Dr. Mitchell looks at the scriptures dealing with the birth of Jesus in Matthew chapter 1 concerning Joseph as well. Now here in Luke 1 verse 38 we see Mary's faith in what God had said would take place and she waited for his fulfillment.Then the Lord is gracious to give Mary an encouraging confirmation of His words found in Verses 39 through 45.Well let's join Dr Mitchell here in Luke chapter 1 verse 34 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.

As we are going to read, this angel Gabriel is sent once again from God to bring a message to a young woman who was a virgin in a city named Nazareth of Galilee.We are in Luke chapter 1:26. Just like Zachariah, Mary too was troubled by the presence of the angel. But Gabriel quieted her fear with comforting words of grace.He would tell her about the son she would bear. He gave her his Name, His Position, His Power, and the means of His birth.As we learn, the Name Jesus means Jehovah saves. His name derives from the Hebrew word Jehosua, or Joshua which means the same thing, the great I AM, YaWeH saves.Let's join Dr. Mitchell in Luke 1:26 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast as he shares the good news of Jesus Christ.

We are in the gospel of Luke chapter 1 verses 14 through 25.You will note that the angel Gabriel does most of the speaking in this passage as he spoke to Zachariah the priest in the temple. Dr. Mitchell will look at the prophecy from the the angel Gabriel concerning the son who would be born to Zachariah and his wife Elizabeth.There are several things said about this boy whose name would be John. Dr. Mitchell goes on to look at the results of the forthcoming ministry of this man John the Baptist as told by the angel. Do you ever pray to the Lord and when He answers you have doubts about it? Zachariah did. He wondered how this birth could be given their age. Let's find out with Dr. Mitchell in Luke 1:14-25 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.

Luke 1:70-80 New International Version 70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),71 salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us—72 to show mercy to our ancestors and to remember his holy covenant,73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham:74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear75 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. 76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,78 because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven79 to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death,to guide our feet into the path of peace.” 80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit[a]; and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Luke now begins writing about a priest and his wife, Zachariah and Elizabeth, who were both righteous in the sight of God, Luke 1:5-14.It is what God sees that is most important. When you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work at the cross and resurrection, God sees you as righteous in His sight. This is good news.Luke then, gives us the time frame, the names of the people, and their situation before God and before people. They had no children and they were both old and had been praying for a child. When the angel Gabriel came to Zachariah, the priest, he gives him the answer to their prayer. They would have a boy. His name would be called John. His birth would bring joy to them and to many.Let's join Dr. Mitchell in Luke 1:5 on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast.

We live in a world filled with pain, darkness, fear, and uncertainty, and most people wonder if things will ever truly get better. In Luke 1:67–80, God breaks centuries of silence with a message of hope, declaring that the suffering, separation, and darkness that have plagued humanity would not last forever because the Savior was coming. This was the beginning of the end of hopelessness, the beginning of the end of sin's power, and the beginning of God changing everything through Jesus Christ.

As I read through these first four verses of Luke, I hear Luke addressing the “most excellent Theophilus”. His is a Greek name and he must have been in a position of authority or at least a man of some publicly recognized stature. Theophilus, who according to the text, had been verbally taught about the life of Christ. Now, Luke is writing to him to give him a written account of what he had previously heard and been taught. They can now refer back to its truth and accuracy and not forget it.Even though others had previously written, Luke deemed it appropriate to write an orderly account of the life of Jesus on earth although he himself was not personally present with Christ in those days.Dr. Mitchell begins our study in the Gospel of Luke 1:1-4.

Welcome to the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast as we commence a journey through the Gospel of Luke with our teacher, Dr. John G. Mitchell who is finishing up his overview of this gospel.His aim is for us to fall in love with the savior, Jesus Christ. Our Lord is presented in this gospel as the lovely one who is precious and chosen in the sight of God His Father.Dr. Mitchell brings out the fact that from all the Gospels we see Jesus raising 3 people from the dead. Two of the three are found here in Luke. The other is in John.Jesus demonstrates His power over death even before His own resurrection from the dead.Let's join our teacher, Dr. John G. Mitchell, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast to finish up this overview of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke.

The Gospel of Luke will be the starting point of our study as Dr. Mitchell gives us an overview and exhortation from this Gospel.First of all, he gives us a short overview of several chapters of Luke to show how the savior is a man among men.Jesus is proclaimed as one who is a friend of tax gatherers and sinners. Jesus read from the book of Isaiah from which He declared that He was anointed by the Holy Spirit to preach the gospel to the poor, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed and to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.Let's join our teacher, Dr. John G. Mitchell, on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast to give us an overview of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke.

The Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast begins a new series on the Gospel of Luke. Dr. Mitchell will be giving 3 lessons in overview comparing and contrasting the four Gospels before beginning his exposition of the Gospel of Luke.Each writer presents the person and work of our Lord Jesus Christ from his divinely revealed perspective and focus as to who this Jesus of Nazareth is. So to begin Dr. Mitchell looks at the contrasts between Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Each gospel writer was inspired of God to write without error God's revelation to him concerning this Jesus. Matthew writes to Jewish believers. Mark writes to Roman gentiles. Luke writes to a gentile Greek believer named Theophilus. John writes to everyone that we may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God. Here is Dr. Mitchell on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast,Luke 1 Introduction.

What you're about to hear may be one of the most powerful expressions of who God truly is, and it's something every one of us needs to understand. The reality is, this truth offends many people because it directly confronts the pride in human nature that rejects God. This is not just important, it's essential. Don't miss this study.

Luke 1–5 introduces the gospel by grounding God's salvation in real history and in the fulfilment of Old Testament promise. Luke begins with a stated purpose: to provide “certainty” about what has been accomplished among God's people (1:1–4). The early chapters emphasise divine initiative—God acts, speaks, and keeps covenant—through the births of John and Jesus, the virgin conception by the Holy Spirit, and Spirit-filled prophetic songs that interpret these events. Major themes already appear: God's mercy, the forgiveness of sins, and the “great reversal” in which God lifts the lowly and confronts human pride.In Luke 3–5, Jesus is publicly identified and authorised as the Spirit-anointed Son, then revealed as the Messiah whose kingdom comes through word and deed. His baptism and genealogy frame him as the representative, obedient Son, and his wilderness testing shows faithfulness where others failed. Jesus then announces good news and demonstrates authority over sin, sickness, and evil—calling people to repentance, extending forgiveness, and forming a new community around himself (including those considered outsiders). These chapters set expectations for the rest of Luke: salvation is holistic, centred on Jesus' authority to forgive, and it creates disciples who respond in faith and follow him.Get the Thrive Bible Reading Guide - Companion to this PodCast

There are moments in history where everything changes in an instant. What makes those moments remarkable is not just what happened, but how they happened. God has always had a way of working through circumstances people dismiss, overlook, or outright call impossible. And when He does, He also shows us how to trust in Him. In this video, we'll look at one of the most powerful moments in human history and discover what it reveals about the way God still works today.

We all carry beliefs that dramatically limit us, and in many cases, those beliefs can set us on a path toward destruction. The Bible challenges the mindset of a godly man who allowed that to happen, and it very specifically gives us instruction on what to do in those moments. Today, we're going to talk about that.

And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD have not forsaken those who seek you (Psalm 9:10). Let us know; let us press on to know the Lord; his going out is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth (Hosea 6:3).

Truth is becoming more rare, not less. That's a shocking thing to say in a time where information is everywhere. But access to information does not guarantee accuracy. In many ways, it makes deception easier. That's why it's more important than ever to be careful with what we believe. What we're about to look at today brings clarity to that reality in a powerful way.

In this episode of Compared to Who?, Heather Creekmore welcomes Morgan Krueger to discuss the idea of living for something greater than ourselves, particularly through a Christ-centered lens. Morgan Krueger shares her personal journey from seeking the approval of others and wrestling with identity, to finding freedom in magnifying the Lord above all else—even during seasons of major life transition, including job changes, moving, and motherhood 00:53-03:16. Together, Heather Creekmore and Morgan Krueger explore themes such as the fear of man, the dangers of self-focus, and the liberating practice of self-forgetfulness inspired by Tim Keller's The Freedom of Self Forgetfulness 05:06-06:50. They discuss biblical stories, like Mary and Martha, and the difference between Christ's invitation to "come" and his command to "go," emphasizing the importance of being with Jesus before doing for Jesus 09:33-10:13. The conversation then delves into the tension Christian women feel between cultural pressures to be busy and productive and the biblical call to rest and trust 10:13-11:16. They candidly address the traps of shame and pride, the relentless pull to center life on self-glorification, and the continual invitation from Jesus to return, receive grace, and reorient towards Him 15:20-18:14. Heather Creekmore and Morgan Krueger highlight that our deepest issues with identity, approval, and body image are not just shaped by culture but by the condition of our hearts, and that true rest and purpose are found in magnifying God's name, not our own 24:29-26:03. Morgan Krueger introduces her new book, Made to Magnify: Choosing to Live for Jesus When Everything Tells You to Live for Yourself*, which explores these themes in greater depth and offers encouragement and practical guidance for women seeking to center their lives on Christ. The episode closes with information on how listeners can connect with Morgan Krueger and a reminder to focus less on comparison and more on living in the beautiful invitation to follow Jesus. *Amazon affiliate link.
