God has always planned on saving you. You were never an afterthought or a last-minute consideration. Not only have you been chosen before time began (1 Peter 1:2), but throughout the ages your salvation has been expected and planned for. The spokesmen of the Old Testament wrote about Jesus' coming and the new covenant of grace, which you are now a part of. All this makes our salvation more secure than ever, built on the bedrock of His promises.
Waiting for God's Time The Gospel recounts Jesus ascending the mountain to call and appoint the Twelve Apostles, . . . . . . choosing them to be with him, to preach, and to exercise spiritual authority. This act highlights divine initiative: God chooses, calls, and sends according to His will, not human ambition. The Homily then turns to the Old Testament encounter between David and Saul. Saul, consumed by jealousy, seeks to kill David in order to preserve his power, while David . . . though unjustly persecuted for many years . . . refuses to take revenge when Saul's life is placed in his hands. David recognizes Saul as “the Lord's anointed” and entrusts justice and fulfillment of God's promise entirely to God's timing. True Faith Resists the Urge to Hasten God's Promises The central lesson contrasts jealousy and revenge with patience, discernment, and reverence for life. Jealousy corrupts the heart and leads toward death, while waiting on God preserves life and aligns human action with divine purpose. David teaches that God's plans do not require human violence or manipulation to be fulfilled. True faith resists the urge to hasten God's promises and instead allows God alone to sign His work, especially when life itself is at stake. Listen to this Meditation Media.

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we peeled back the often “over our heads” language of theology to get down to the basics of how the simple, clear, classic gospel message is the key to changing the downward slide of society that we see happening all around us. Our guest reminded us that God’s message of hope is still as powerful and life transforming as it has ever been. The horrors of the Holocaust must never be forgotten and in the light of the rise of antisemitic hatred we are seeing in the world today, believers must now more than ever stand with God’s chosen people. Our guest shared how the horrors of the Holocaust impacted his own family, why we are seeing so much hatred toward Jews today and why antisemitism is one of the keys that lead to the return of the Messiah. We talked to one our favorite advocates for the unborn to get his take on last week’s March for Life in Washington D.C. and why he says this was a significant march. He also updated us on what’s going on with the Pregnant Students Rights Act. Then we turned our eyes to the Middle East and got an update from a man who has made his life’s service sharing the hope of gospel to the people in the Middle East. He talked to us about the current climate on Jewish hatred that we are seeing around the world and gave a warning directly from the Old Testament about what happened to people groups who cursed Israel. He also shared more stories of God drawing people to him in both Iran and Israel. What do you do when you have tried everything and your marriage is still on the rocks and sinking fast? Our guest combined his own marital experiences along with his professional training as a therapist to share what he calls “lightbulb moments” and how these special breakthroughs can be the key to the rescuing and restoring marriages. The year may be new, but the challenges remain the same. That is why more than ever we need to understand how to stand up for our families and our communities by standing firmly on the truth of God’s word. Join us for another educational exploration of the headlines through the lens of scripture.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Read OnlineWhen Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him. He began to teach them, saying: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:1–3The Beatitudes call us to the heights of morality and holiness. Those who live according to these divine precepts are blessed beyond measure. The promises to those who live this high calling are great: They become children of God and inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Furthermore, they receive comfort, satisfaction, mercy, purity, and peace. Though the rewards are great, so are the requirements: spiritual poverty, holy sorrow, meekness, longing for righteousness, a merciful heart, purity, peacemaking, and patient endurance during persecution.The Beatitudes reveal the culmination of God's moral teaching and the highest revelation of the Christian life. To fully appreciate their significance, it is helpful to understand the history of moral revelation. Doing so is more than a history lesson on God's deepening revelation, it also reveals the path for our spiritual journey toward perfection.Morality begins with the Natural Law—the innate understanding of right and wrong written on the human heart. This Law is from God and is often described as living in accord with right reason or common sense. All people have access to this moral law within their own consciences, enabling them to recognize God as the Creator, honor Him, respect human dignity and the common good, and refrain from acts such as murder, theft, and deception. Though universally present in all people, sin and our fallen human nature cloud our ability to clearly see and follow that law.In the Old Testament, God slowly revealed Himself and called His people to greater holiness and moral living by adding to the Natural Law through revelation. From Abraham and his descendants, God raised up Moses through whom He revealed the Ten Commandments—a concise moral code rooted in Natural Law but explicitly revealed by God that called His chosen people to right worship, justice, and love for one's neighbor.Through the prophets—such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel—God called Israel to move beyond mere external observance of the law to an interior conversion of heart. Isaiah emphasized the virtues of justice and mercy, Jeremiah prophesied a new covenant in which God's law would be written on the hearts of His people, and Ezekiel promised that God would give His people a new heart and a new spirit, enabling them to follow His statutes.The wisdom literature—Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Wisdom, Sirach—deepened the understanding of moral life by revealing moral gifts, such as the Fear of the Lord, the blessedness of righteousness, and the call to trust in God's providence and live a virtuous life.The Beatitudes elevate all laws of the Old Covenant. Jesus not only calls us to profound holiness, He also provides the means to achieve it through His Sacrifice, transmitted through the grace of the Sacraments. To live the Beatitudes is to live in imitation of Christ, who perfectly embodied all virtues in His life, Passion, and Resurrection. Hence, the Beatitudes are not only a moral code we must follow, they are a participation in and union with the Son of God, Who lived the Beatitudes to perfection.As we ponder the Beatitudes, reflect today on their high and glorious calling, as well as their rewards. Sometimes, reading the Beatitudes can leave us discouraged, as we are aware of how far we are away from perfecting them. Dispel discouragement and know that these new divine precepts are attainable by grace. Set your eyes on the heights of perfection and open yourself to the abundant grace offered. Doing so will not only result in glorious spiritual rewards in this life, it will also result in the greatest eternal rewards in Heaven.Lord of perfection, You lived the Beatitudes to the fullest during Your life on earth and continue to manifest those perfections from Heaven. Please open my heart to Your grace and fill me with Your Holy Spirit, so that I may answer the call to the new and glorious moral state to which I am called. Empower me to live fully immersed in and guided by Your Sacrificial Love. Help me to inspire others to embrace this path of holiness, so that we may journey together toward the eternal joy of Your Kingdom. Jesus, I trust in You!

Romans 10:11-13 — People love to make distinctions between themselves and others, between their tribe and other tribes. Fallen hearts tend to make these distinctions so as to elevate themselves above others, especially in religious matters. The apostle Paul has tirelessly labored in Romans to emphasize that there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile –– all sin falls short of the glory of God. If one does not follow the apostle here, they will construct different ways of salvation that appeal to the flesh. One may think being moral, good or kind is the way of salvation. But God's way of salvation has always been the same — those who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. There is no distinction between Jew or Gentile in any sense, whether in sin or salvation. In this sermon on Romans 10:11–13 titled “Jew or Gentle, No Difference,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones expounds Paul's teaching and brings contemporary application. Specifically, he applies Paul's teaching here to dispensationalism and its teaching that makes a distinction between salvation for Jews and salvation for the church. In an amicable spirit, Dr. Lloyd-Jones challenges the popular movement by rightly connecting the Old Testament teaching on salvation with the New Testament. He emphasizes that there is only one way with one gospel and no distinctions. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/603/29?v=20251111

Jesus doesn't discard the Old Testament—He fulfills it. Jeff walks us through Matthew chapters 3 and 4, explaining how Jesus intentionally retraces the story of Israel. From the Jordan River—the lowest place on earth—to the wilderness of testing, the Gospel of Matthew reveals an incredible pattern: Jesus relives the Exodus, succeeds where Israel failed, and fulfills the promises of the Old Testament.

Moses details various nations that the LORD brings about through the three sons of Noah after the flood. The extensive record reminds us that all humanity shares a common ancestry going back to Noah, and the LORD cares about all humanity. Particular nations and individuals are highlighted due to their ongoing significance in the Old Testament and their enduring interactions with the nation of Israel. The number of the nations listed in the chapter corresponds closely to the number of disciples Jesus sends out in Luke 10, highlighting that the Gospel is for all nations. Rev. Luke Zimmerman, pastor at Calvary Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mechanicsburg, PA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 10:1-32. To learn more about Calvary Lutheran, visit calvarymechanicsburg.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
Where are the nine? It is a haunting question that exposes the frequent ingratitude of the human heart. In this episode of The Magnificent 37, we look at two distinct miracles: the provision of the temple tax from a fish's mouth and the cleansing of ten lepers. While the first shows Jesus' lordship over creation and His freedom as the Son of God, the second highlights the nature of true faith—faith that not only receives God's gifts but returns to the Giver with thanksgiving and praise. The Rev. Steven Theiss, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in New Wells, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 17:24–27 and Luke 17:11–19. Thy Strong Word kicks off the new year by dedicating our time to study "The Magnificent 37: The Miracles of Jesus." Christ didn't just speak the Word; He demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This isn't just a list of "neat tricks" from history. It is a systematic walkthrough of how God breaks into our broken world to fix it. Why did Jesus curse a fig tree? Why did He need mud to heal a blind man? What does the coin in the fish's mouth teach us about being citizens of heaven and earth? Host, Pastor Phil Booe and a lineup of guest pastors will take you through each event, verse by verse. We'll move past the Sunday School summary and get into the meat of the text, including the Old Testament connections, the cultural context, and the immediate comfort these signs bring to your life today. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

The Old Testament said "an eye for an eye," but Jesus rewrites the script entirely. In this episode, we discover what it means to move in the opposite spirit and why there's no place for judgment in the New Testament. Graham asks one climactic question that changes everything: Was Jesus judged enough for sin?Key Scriptures:+ Leviticus 24:17-22. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth - Old Testament justice.+ Matthew 5:38-48. You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.' But I tell you not to resist an evil person...+ Luke 6:27-36. Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.+ Acts 5:1-11. The account of Ananias and Sapphira - spiritual warfare, not human judgment.+ Romans 8:1. There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.+ John 3:17. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.+ Matthew 7:1. Judge not, that you be not judged.Want to explore more?

Why does Scripture so often portray women as central to God's work of redemption—even in stories of deep dysfunction and failure? In this episode, Dr. Ingrid Faro, Old Testament scholar and interim president of Northern Seminary, joins Dru Johnson to explore her groundbreaking work in Redeeming Eden: How Women in the Bible Advance the Story of Salvation. Dr. Faro shares how her personal journey through theological trauma, cultic church experiences, and academic discovery led her to reexamine Genesis 1–3 and the women of the Bible. She explains how Hebrew terms like ezer and tzelah (often translated “helper” and “rib”) have been misunderstood, how Eve's story actually radiates hope, and how strategic female figures consistently propel salvation history forward. The conversation also tackles misinterpretations of Genesis 3:16, the patterns of dysfunction and healing across the biblical narrative, and what the Bible really says about evil. This episode is a deep and hopeful reconsideration of gender, power, and goodness within the story of Scripture.

“Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” The disciples look for a cause, but Jesus looks for a purpose: “that the works of God might be displayed in him.” In this episode of The Magnificent 37, we study the healing of the man born blind. This narrative is as much about spiritual sight as physical healing; as the man's vision becomes clearer and his confession bolder, the Pharisees plunge deeper into the darkness of unbelief, proving that the worst blindness is the refusal to see Jesus as the Light of the World. The Rev. Jim Daub, pastor of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Havelock, NC, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study John 9:1–41. To learn more about St. Paul Lutheran, visit stpaulhavelock.com.

Today is day 29 and we are in the section Concerning Holy Scripture on question 29. 29. How are the Old and New Testaments related to each other? The Old Testament is to be read in the light of Christ, and the New Testament is to be read in light of God's revelation to Israel. Thus the two form one Holy Scripture, which reveals the Person of Jesus Christ and his mighty works. As Saint Augustine says, “The New is in the Old concealed, the Old is in the New revealed.” (Augustine of Hippo, Questions in the Heptateuch 2.73; see also Matthew 5:17–18; Luke 24:25–27) Our prayer today is the Eleventh Proper Collect found on page 618 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

In this episode, Pastor Cindy talks about living in the fullness of Christ. In the Old Testament, the presence of God was confined to the tabernacle. It had walls and boundaries and only a select people could even handle being in the full presence. The Holy Spirit hadn't been poured out for everyone to receive. But now, in this new covenant, we have been given the Holy Spirit. He now dwells in us. We are the walking tabernacles that host the presence of God. It's important for us to understand the power and authority we carry.

Elliot Rudell was a hardcore hippie living a hedonistic lifestyle of sex, drugs, and rock ‘n' roll before he was radically saved and delivered by Jesus in 1973. A transformative spiritual ‘ambush' at a friend's wedding set him on a path he never would have imagined! Today, Elliot is a professional toy and game inventor with over 150 patents and the owner of Rudell Design. From the Jewish lineage, Elliot is very concerned about the potential damage both to the Jewish people and the Church as a result of the deceptive doctrine of Replacement Theology. Elliot believes it contradicts the fullness of both testament teachings. He references Jeremiah 31 and Romans 10-11 and points to the importance of studying and embracing the New and Old Testaments as one complete message, noting that the Old Testament constitutes nearly 80% of the entire word of God.TAKEAWAYSJesus is absolutely true and absolutely righteous and the Bible is intended to be viewed as one complete (‘echad') bookGod has predestined that each man has a free will to accept and love, or refuse and reject God and His salvationIsrael is under an eternal and special covenant with God, and He is jealous for His peopleSanctification means you have been called to holiness, but not that you are automatically holy - that is a choice of your free will

To continue this week on the Raising Godly Girls Podcast's deep dive into Apologetics, hosts Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden tease out the basics of how to approach daily conversations so parents can guide girls as they are going in daily life. Both hosts describe 'speechless' moments they each had when they didn't know how to respond to tough questions regarding their faith convictions. Rachael talks about 'sprinkling apologetics' into normal situations like car rides and daily real life so it doesn't feel like a memorized chorus for girls, rather an infused way of living. Through questions like, "Does that line up with what we know is true?" or "What do you think God is showing us here?" Rachael shares that a girl's faith moves from fragile to fortified one conversation at a time. In an honest moment, Rachael also shares that she doesn't always know 'all the answers' as a mom, so she encourages parents to be willing to learn alongside their girls. The featured Raising Godly Girls Minute in this episode drops a difficult Bible question that comes up a lot for girls: "God in the Old Testament seems very different from God in the New Testament—are there different God's in the Bible?" With generation alpha's focus on social media algorithm-fueled scroll feeds and YouTube influencer-fed notions (often apart from Scripture), many parents are feeling overwhelmed and hopeless about the current state of the next generation's worldview status. The hosts remind listeners that real-life apologetics has to happen…in real life! So the old notion of memorized answers and echo-chamber video feeds miss the mark. With three key anchor points, Rachael guides listeners through ways to approach this well. Story Swaps, Debate Club, and Faith Detective all offer creative approaches that easily translate into daily conversation for families. Melissa enthusiastically challenges listeners to 'just start'—at the dining room table, in daily life activities, and often at unexpected times! Rachael shares her love for the AHG Stars & Stripes Award process, specifically how the Spiritual Walk Essay gives award recipients a chance to unpack their journey in places that God strengthened their faith through adversity. Three Things to Consider: Faith is built in the small moments. Questions are a gift, not a threat. Equip, don't overwhelm.

Isaiah 35: Continuing our search for joy in the Old Testament, we learn from Isaiah's prophecy of blooms in the desert, strength for the weak, and a highway of holiness.
If you find yourself in a court of law, you'll need an attorney to speak on your behalf. In the Old Testament, the priests represented the people. But if you come to Jesus in faith, He is your High Priest and He intercedes for you.

Part 3 The doctrine of God as it relates to the nature of His being is no small matter. The first three centuries of Church history were consumed with this central issue. In the second and third centuries, men like Praxeas and Sabellius argued that God was singular not only in being but also in person. Sabellius taught that, like an actor wearing different masks on stage, God likewise assumed different modes at different times to manifest Himself to man. In the Old Testament, God assumed the role of a Father; in the incarnation, the role of a Son, and in regeneration, the role of the Holy Spirit. Modalistic Monarchianism was soundly defeated in the early centuries of the Church; yet, over the last one hundred years, this ancient heresy has resurfaced amongst those identifying themselves as Oneness Pentecostals. In this third teaching part, we begin to examine the Biblical evidence for the doctrine of the Trinity while at the same time looking at early Church history and those heresies which confounded the persons of the Godhead.

I recently learned that the name “CARE” package came from the acronym for “Cooperative for American Remittances to Europe,” a group that sent boxes of food to help Europeans displaced during World War II. While the care packages I send my kids at college are mostly filled with homemade treats and candy, they usually include a few practical items—a favorite shirt forgotten at home or extra school supplies. While the name “care package” may be modern, the practice of sending helpful items is far older. It’s even tucked away at the end of 2 Timothy. Writing while imprisoned in Rome, Paul concluded his letter to his trusted disciple with some personal requests. He asked that Timothy come and bring Mark to help him (v. 11). Then he requested some personal items: his cloak and his “scrolls, especially the parchments” (4:13). Perhaps the cloak was needed because winter was coming, and maybe the scrolls contained copies of the Old Testament. Whatever the reason, Paul longed for companionship and practical items to refresh and encourage him. Tangible reminders of care, whether the recipient lives near or far, can have a significant impact on someone in need of a little encouragement. The gift of a meal for a neighbor, a thoughtful card written to a loved one or acquaintance, or a package full of goodies sent to a faraway friend can extend God’s love in practical ways.

Who is the mysterious “Angel of the LORD” who keeps showing up all over the Old Testament—and why does he talk, act, and receive worship as if he is God Himself? In this episode, Joshua Lewis walks through key Old Testament passages to argue that the Angel of the LORD is not a created angel at all, but the pre-incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ, appearing long before Bethlehem.From Hagar in the wilderness, to Abraham on Mount Moriah, to Moses at the burning bush, to Gideon in the wine press, these Old Testament stories form a consistent pattern: this Angel carries the divine name, makes covenant promises, swears by Himself, declares “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,” accepts worship and sacrifice, and is recognized as Yahweh—with no correction from Scripture. Josh carefully exegetes key passages like Genesis 16, Genesis 22, Exodus 3, and Judges 6, showing how the biblical authors themselves move seamlessly between “the Angel of the LORD” and “Yahweh,” presenting one divine being in more than one person.Along the way, we explore how this fits within Christian theology, biblical prophecy, and the developing revelation of the Trinity. How can God the Father be “invisible” and yet God is repeatedly seen in the Old Testament? How does the New Testament's teaching that the Son is “the image of the invisible God” resolve this tension? And what does it mean for spiritual warfare, for covenant, and for our reading of the entire Bible if Jesus has been present and active in redemptive history from the very beginning?If you're hungry for a deeper dive into Christian theology, Old Testament theophanies, and the identity of the Angel of the LORD as the pre-incarnate Christ, this episode will help you see Jesus woven all through the story of Israel - speaking, saving, commissioning, judging, forgiving, and revealing the Father long before the incarnation.00:00 – The Mystery of the Angel of the LORD Introduced01:55 – The Angel of the LORD as the Pre-Incarnate Son of God (Thesis)02:14 – Genesis 16: The Angel of the LORD Appears to Hagar06:13 – Genesis 22: The Angel swears by Himself to Abraham09:08 – Exodus 3: The Angel in the Burning Bush12:11 – Judges 6: The Angel Commissions Gideon17:56 – Summary: What the Angel Does Only God Can Do18:47 – The Son as the Image of the Invisible God20:06 – Jesus Has Always Been Present in God's Story Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Romans 10:11-13 — What is Scripture all about? What makes the writings of the Old and New Testaments unique? In this sermon on salvation from Romans 10:11–13 titled “This Great Salvation,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preaches on how Paul appeals to the Old Testament prophet Isaiah to show that salvation is for all who believe, both Jew and Gentile. Scripture reveals the one unified plan of salvation brought to pass in Jesus Christ. It speaks as one voice to humanity and declares that God has acted in Jesus Christ so that sinners can be saved. Those who want to do away with the Old Testament are in great danger of not only disregarding God's holy Word, but they are also in danger of perverting the message of salvation. The whole Old Testament looks forward to when Jesus would come and die to save Jews and Gentiles. The message of Scripture is not an irrelevant one; it is the only message of salvation and forgiveness of sins.

God revealed His covenant progressively throughout the Old Testament, and these agreements reached their ultimate fulfillment in the person of Jesus. Thankfully, our New Covenant is so special because it is sealed by the blood of Jesus, which creates a permanent bond between God and us. His blood gives us the ability to inherit all the promises of God, and boldness and confidence when we seek Him.
“I believe; help my unbelief!” This desperate cry from a father resonates with every Christian who has ever struggled in faith. In this episode of The Magnificent 37, we examine two difficult healings: the two-stage healing of the blind man at Bethsaida and the exorcism of a boy with a mute spirit. These miracles show us that faith is not always a straight line and that Jesus meets us in our weakness. Whether clarity comes gradually or through a struggle against the forces of darkness, Christ remains the author and perfecter of our faith. The Rev. David Boisclair, senior pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Mark 8:22–26 and Mark 9:14–29. To learn more about Our Redeemer, visit ourredeemerstl.org. Thy Strong Word kicks off the new year by dedicating our time to study "The Magnificent 37: The Miracles of Jesus." Christ didn't just speak the Word; He demonstrated it with power. From the quiet intimacy of water turning to wine at Cana to the earth-shaking reality of the empty tomb, the Gospels record thirty-seven distinct moments where Jesus suspended the laws of nature to reveal the power of his grace. This isn't just a list of "neat tricks" from history. It is a systematic walkthrough of how God breaks into our broken world to fix it. Why did Jesus curse a fig tree? Why did He need mud to heal a blind man? What does the coin in the fish's mouth teach us about being citizens of heaven and earth? Host, Pastor Phil Booe and a lineup of guest pastors will take you through each event, verse by verse. We'll move past the Sunday School summary and get into the meat of the text, including the Old Testament connections, the cultural context, and the immediate comfort these signs bring to your life today. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

In this episode, I reflect on a Facebook post I shared last week about the difference between the Kingdom of God and every other kingdom. I honestly expected backlash, but instead the post struck a nerve and opened up a surprising amount of thoughtful and gracious conversation. What I am really talking about here is not Republican versus Democrat. It is discipleship. It is about what happens when the Church trades faithfulness for usefulness and why Christians are called to remember, especially in tense moments, that Caesar was never meant to be Lord.

In God’s courtroom there’s not one person who could plead “innocent.” We’re all guilty of breaking God’s law. But is there anyone willing to plead our case? Pastor Mike Fabarez studies the Old Testament priesthood to point us to our ultimate advocate before God.
In this episode, Pastors Matt and Brian reflect on the recent winter storm that forced them to pre-record their church service, sharing how God sometimes changes our plans to provide needed rest. Matt introduced the major sermon series called "The Bible in a J.A.R.," covering the books of John, Acts, and Romans over the next several months. Pastor Matt explains that these three books perfectly illustrate the discipleship journey: John shows us who Jesus is (meeting Jesus), Acts demonstrates how to live out our faith in mission (joining His mission), and Romans provides the theological foundation for why it all works (growing in truth). He emphasizes that Jesus is the central figure of all Scripture - the Old Testament points toward Him, and the New Testament explains who He is and what He accomplished. Pastor Matt also encourages listeners to continue their Bible reading plan, particularly as they enter Leviticus, explaining that even the detailed sacrificial laws and rituals described there point forward to Jesus as our perfect sacrifice and great high priest.
Old Testament sacrifices were offered for sins, but was it only accidental ones? What happens if you sin on purpose? Does Jesus' sacrifice change all this? And why repent if Jesus paid it all? Fr. Stephen and Fr. Andrew explore the relationship between sin and sacrifice.
Chad Bird joins the Thinking Fellows to challenge the popular idea that the Old Testament is a mysterious book filled with hidden codes and secret meanings waiting to be unlocked. Together, they examine the motivations and theological presuppositions that drive these approaches and why they often distort how Christians read Scripture. In contrast, the conversation offers a constructive vision for Old Testament study; one that emphasizes historical context, literary awareness, and the value of the original languages as gifts that clarify, rather than conceal, God's Word.

The Letter of Jude E4 — In verses 5-7, Jude warns a Jewish Messianic community about a group of people in their midst who live without moral restraint and reject Jesus' authority. After comparing them to a series of human and angelic rebels in the Hebrew Bible, Jude then calls out the corrupt church members in verses 8-10 as ones who “slander the glorious-ones,” referring to angels. What is Jude talking about, and why would slandering spiritual beings be considered offensive? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the Hebrew Bible and Second-Temple period apocryphal literature to understand the unique role and revered status of angels among 1st-century Jewish people.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSRecap of Introduction and Setup for Verses 8-10 (0:00-10:21)Angels in the Hebrew Bible and Second-Temple Literature (10:21-39:02)Michael the Archangel's Restraint (39:02-1:06:12)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.BIBLEPROJECT JUDE TRANSLATIONView our full translation of the Letter of Jude.REFERENCED RESOURCESGod and Spiritual Beings Podcast SeriesCheck out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books.SHOW MUSIC“Chillbop ft.
