Join us as we come together with listeners around the world to encounter God's Word, be reminded of His love, and carry that love into our day. Absolutely! Here are 10 thoughtful discussion questions based on this episode of the Daily Radio Bible: The episode opens by saying that the Scriptures bear witness to Jesus rather than being life in themselves. What does this perspective mean to you, and how might it change the way you read the Bible? Nahum's prophecy against Nineveh comes 100 to 150 years after Jonah's. How does the contrasting message between these two prophets reflect God's justice and mercy? In what ways did Nahum emphasize both God's power and his goodness? How do you see these two aspects of God in your own life? The description of Nineveh's fall is vivid and devastating. Why do you think the Bible includes such detailed imagery when depicting the consequences of turning away from God? Jesus' statement in John 5:39, "You study the Scriptures diligently... yet the Scriptures point to me," is highlighted in the episode. What are the risks of focusing on religious rules without embracing the person of Jesus? The host mentions that some people missed God's love because they were consumed with control, rules, and judgment. What are some modern-day examples of missing God's love in similar ways? How does Jesus' healing at the pool of Bethesda challenge the religious leaders' views on the Sabbath? What message do you think Jesus was trying to convey through this act? The prayers at the end of the episode emphasize being instruments of peace, forgiveness, and love. How can these prayers inspire the way you interact with others today? The episode encourages listeners to recognize God's love already present in their hearts. What practices or habits can help you become more aware of God's love in your everyday life? Reflecting on today's readings and the discussion, how can you move from simply knowing about God to truly experiencing and living in God's love? Feel free to use these for group discussion or personal reflection! Absolutely!

Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Luke 11:5-13; Matthew 6:5-13; Matthew 18:10-20; Isaiah 55:8: Romans 12:1Sermon OutlineJesus first taught the disciples how to pray and then illustrated the need for persistence in prayer. In this parable, Jesus indicates that God can be trusted to respond to our prayers. The key point and question we must answer is: Do we believe that God can be trusted with our prayers? The man in the parable persisted (Greek word meaning shameless persistence) in asking his neighbor for bread for his visitor. Because of his persistence, his neighbor gave him the bread. Likewise, Jesus illustrates that God will respond to our persistent ongoing prayers.Three questions to consider:Why pray?Jesus tells us to prayThere is power in prayerPrayer fosters a deeper connection with GodWhy is persistence in prayer important?Our persistence doesn't change God; it changes us and aligns our hearts with God's heartPrayer is continual: ask, seek, knockPrayer exercises our faith muscleHow does God respond?Earthly fathers will not purposely give their sons bad giftsHeavenly Father gives His best giftsHeavenly Father does not hold out on youKey pointIn order to pray persistently and not give up we must know the character of God; that He is good, faithful and trustworthy.Key concernGod does not always answer the prayers in the way that we would like, but He always has a “higher yes” ordered and governed by His Sovereignty and ability to see the big picture of our lives.Sermon QuestionsDo you think that God always responds to your prayers out of His character of goodness, faithfulness? Why or why not?Is your prayer life persistent and full of trust believing God cares and hears you? Why or why not?Do you pray until you get a breakthrough even if it isn't the answer you were hoping for?How have you seen prayer transform you?What do you need to do to grow in your trust that God is for you and not against you? (Romans 8:31)Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email us (Office@StAndrews.Church).

In week 5 of the Talking Jesus series, Pastor Torry Sheppard brings a timely and tender word for those who've been faithfully sharing their faith—but are still waiting to see results. This message encourages believers to persevere when the work of evangelism feels slow, discouraging, or seemingly unfruitful—especially when it involves someone they love. Pastor Torry opens by acknowledging a common, heartfelt question: What do I do when I've done everything I know to do? Whether it's a child, a spouse, or a close friend, long-game evangelism often means walking with people for years without visible progress. And that can be exhausting. This message is a reminder that although the journey is slow, it's sacred—and that God is still working. A Hiking Story with a Spiritual Twist To illustrate this, Pastor Torry tells a humorous and revealing story from a college trip to Utah, where he and a group of friends mistakenly knocked over the very rock stacks—called cairns—meant to guide their hike through the desert. After getting lost, they realized they had been dismantling the very markers that were supposed to help them get to their destination and return home. The story sets up the central theme: in the long, dry stretches of spiritual influence, we need markers of faith to keep us grounded and encouraged. Without them, it's easy to lose our way. Evangelism is rarely instant. It's a journey—and one that often requires more endurance than enthusiasm. Part 1: Stacking Stones – Keeping Your Faith Alive Drawing from Joshua 4, Pastor Torry reflects on Israel's entrance into the Promised Land. After God parted the Jordan River, Joshua instructed the people to gather twelve stones as a memorial. These stones weren't just for celebration—they were for remembrance. They told future generations: God was here. He moved. He delivered. What's striking is that Joshua also set up a private altar in the riverbed—stones no one else would see once the water returned. Pastor Torry suggests these hidden stones were personal—a reminder for Joshua himself. Because even the strongest leaders are prone to forget God's faithfulness. Like Joshua, we need to “stack stones” along our spiritual journey—moments of answered prayer, miracles, or breakthroughs that we can return to when doubt creeps in. Sometimes the best way to encourage our soul is to remember what God has already done. Part 2: Spiritual Influence Over the Long Haul With our personal faith fortified, Pastor Torry shifts focus to how we can maintain spiritual influence when nothing seems to be changing. He outlines three key commitments that keep us in the game: 1. Prayer Prayer isn't passive—it's powerful. It's not just something we do while we wait; it's part of the work itself. Citing James 5, Pastor Torry reminds us that the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. He introduces five scriptural ways to pray for those far from God: Ask the Father to draw them (John 6:44) Bind the spirit that blinds them (2 Corinthians 4:4) Pray they experience a relationship, not just religion (Romans 8:15) Ask God to send people into their lives (Matthew 9:38) Pray for wisdom and revelation (Ephesians 1:17) These intercessory prayers become spiritual warfare—asking God to soften hearts, remove barriers, and awaken a personal hunger for Him. 2. Patience Evangelism rarely moves at the pace we want. Pastor Torry challenges our “right now” expectations by reminding us that while God can move instantly, He often works over time. Just because something isn't visible doesn't mean it isn't happening. Our patience mirrors God's own—He was patient with us, and He calls us to be patient with others. Patience doesn't mean approval. It simply means we haven't given up hope. It gives us the grace to stay present even when change is slow. 3. Persistence Patience keeps us grounded. Persistence keeps us moving. Pastor Torry urges us not to pull back when results seem scarce. Citing 1 Corinthians 15:58, he reminds us that our labor in the Lord is not in vain. The breakthrough might not be immediate—but that doesn't mean it isn't coming. To illustrate, Pastor Torry shares a deeply personal story about his mother. After enduring three painful disappointments—including his grandfather walking away from the faith—she received a prophetic word that God would restore all three. Two came quickly. But for thirteen years, she prayed for her father. And then, one Sunday, the phone rang. He had gone to church and made things right. No fanfare—just a simple sentence. But behind it were thirteen years of persistence. Conclusion: Keep Playing the Long Game Faithful evangelism isn't always flashy. Sometimes it's quiet, repetitive, and unseen. But it matters. If you're carrying the burden of someone who seems far from God, don't lose heart. Stack your stones. Pray with power. Be patient. Stay persistent. Because your story may not be finished. And your faith might be the very thing God uses to bring someone else home.

Summary of Sermon: The Everyday Evangelist Series: Talking Jesus – Week 1 | Pastor Torry Sheppard Introduction Pastor Torry Sheppard launches a new series at Gateway Church titled Talking Jesus, addressing the call for every believer to step into the role of an everyday evangelist. He begins by acknowledging the cultural uncertainty and spiritual fatigue of our time—pandemics, polarization, and digital overload. Yet, he proposes that this cultural low point may actually be the perfect moment for spiritual awakening. Drawing from historical revivals such as the First Great Awakening and the Jesus Movement of the 1960s, Pastor Torry emphasizes that God often breathes life into the Church during moments of apathy and unrest. His central question: If the Spirit is blowing, will we lift our sails? Evangelism as an Overflow of Identity Pastor Torry challenges the modern view of evangelism as something reserved for professionals, instead grounding it in the biblical identity of every believer. Referencing 1 Peter 2:9, he reminds the congregation that Christians are a “chosen people, a royal priesthood,” called to proclaim the praises of God. Evangelism, then, is not a task but a byproduct of who we are in Christ. The early Church modeled this identity-based ministry, where pastors and teachers equipped everyday believers to carry the message of the gospel in their ordinary lives. Evangelism in Modern Tension Acknowledging the discomfort many feel around evangelism, Pastor Torry addresses common fears—being rejected, saying the wrong thing, or being labeled. Many Christians, he says, avoid sharing their faith due to insecurity or cultural pressure. However, he warns against outsourcing evangelism to pastors or influencers, reminding the Church that spiritual impact belongs to every believer. He encourages the Gateway family to shift their mindset from fear and hesitation to identity and calling. Four Marks of an Everyday Evangelist Pastor Torry distills the message into four key qualities—postures of the heart that enable believers to carry the gospel naturally and powerfully in daily life. These are not about personality, skill, or charisma, but spiritual posture and openness to God. 1. Spirit-Led Evangelists must be attentive to the Holy Spirit's promptings. Pastor Torry highlights Romans 8 and the story of Philip in Acts 8. Philip leaves a fruitful revival to follow the Spirit's call to a desert road, ultimately leading to the conversion of an Ethiopian official. This obedience births an entire faith movement. The point: being Spirit-led requires spiritual sensitivity, even in inconvenient moments. Evangelism happens when we say yes to divine detours. 2. Personal Holiness Holiness, Pastor Torry explains, is not perfection or legalism but closeness to God. It's about living a life set apart, one that radiates the presence of Jesus. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:15–16 and Isaiah 43:19, he emphasizes that personal transformation is essential to effective evangelism. When our walk with Christ is fresh, our witness is compelling. He invites those feeling spiritually stale to re-engage with God's renewing work, pointing to the woman at the well in John 4 as a powerful example: she shared her encounter with Jesus—not a perfect life, but a transformed one. 3. Prayer Prayer prepares our hearts for evangelism and transforms how we see others. Using Colossians 4:2–4, Pastor Torry explains that prayer opens doors and softens hearts. He warns of the danger of losing compassion for the lost, noting that over time, some Christians grow more repelled by sin than concerned for sinners. Evangelists must see others through God's eyes. Prayer reshapes our posture—turning frustration into empathy and distance into intercession. 4. Urgency Evangelism must carry a sense of holy urgency. In Romans 10, Paul outlines the chain of faith: how will they believe if no one tells them? Pastor Torry shares a personal story of when his daughter Palmer went missing. In the panic, everything else faded—because when someone you love is lost, finding them becomes the only priority. He connects this moment to our calling: spiritually lost people matter to God, and they must matter to us. We don't need panic—but we do need passion. Two Invitations As the message concludes, Pastor Torry extends two invitations. First, to those who feel lost themselves—disconnected, broken, or spiritually adrift—he offers hope and a way home. Jesus is always ready to meet people right where they are. Second, to believers who have been spiritually passive or disengaged, he offers a call to action: step forward with a “Here I am, send me” spirit. Citing Isaiah 6:8, he reminds listeners that God isn't looking for perfect people, just willing ones. Closing Challenge The message ends with a call for Gateway Church to be a people who actually talk to others about Jesus. As the Spirit moves, the Church must move too. Evangelism isn't about forceful arguments or public platforms—it's about walking closely with Jesus and being ready to speak when the moment comes. Pastor Torry charges the church to carry the message of the cross with humility, clarity, and urgency—because the world is hungry for hope, and we've been entrusted with it.

Prayed at the HOUSE CHURCH MEETING, MACHANEH CATHEDRAL

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Scriptures and Prayer - Prayer Is the Christian’s Breath Subtitle: A W Pink writings Speaker: A. W. Pink Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 3/2/2025 Length: 13 min.

It is my deepening conviction that, probably, the Lord's own people sin more in their efforts to pray than in connection with any other thing they engage in? What hypocrisy there is, where there should be reality! What presumptuous demandings, where there should be submissiveness! What formality, where there should be brokenness of heart. How little we really feel the sins we confess, and what little sense of deep need for the mercies we seek.

Today is day 243 and we are studying A Rule of Prayer: Prayer. 243. How should you pray in times of suffering? I should pray trusting in the sufficiency of God's grace and in joyful assurance that “suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame.” (Romans 5:3–5; see also Job 23; Psalm 22; John 12:23–26; 2 Corinthians 1:3–5; 1 Peter 4:12–19) We will conclude today with the Collect for the Fourth Sunday of Epiphany found on page 602 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Today is day 242 and we are studying A Rule of Prayer: Prayer. 242. What should you remember when prayers seem to go unanswered?

(Psalm 37:3–9; Isaiah 55; Habakkuk 3:17–19; Luke 18:1–8; James 4:2–3; 1 John 5:14–15) We will conclude today with Prayer 100.

Today is day 241 and we are studying A Rule of Prayer: Prayer. 241. What prayers should you learn as a part of your rule of prayer? After learning the Lord's Prayer, I should next aim to learn certain psalms (such as Psalms 23, 51, 95, 100, 150) and prayers from the Daily Office. These prayers will ground me in the Christian tradition of prayer and teach me how to pray in my own words. We will conclude today with Prayer 90.
