Speaker: Sr. Pastor Richard ParksScripture: Matthew 16:13-17Objective: The sermon highlights how the Pharisees and Sadducees doubted Jesus as the Messiah, demanding miracles, but he only offered the “sign of Jonah,” pointing to his death and resurrection.Jesus strengthened his disciples' faith, contrasting their beliefs with others, like the Greeks, who saw the cross as weakness. The message urges believers to stand firm, resist worldly doubts, and grow in faith through scripture, just as Jesus taught his disciples.

On a busy daf, the discussion turns to the creation of humanity -- beginning with the creation of one man (and only one as the starting point), and each person's individuality. The question of why humanity begins with only one person occupies the Gemara for a while - including the potential arguing or pride or faulting that could happen if there were more than one ancestor of origin. Also, a description of the creation of man, where God seems to consult with the ministering angels (which He also creates), and how that creation-by-committee doesn't take place at all (God destroys the angels who question His plan!). But then humanity turns, as expected, destructive and the angels basically note to God that they told Him so. God answers them (via a biblical verse) that He is nonetheless going to care for His creations (humanity).

Gary shares the compelling story of a young American woman's last 18 minutes on earth and what it teaches us about Christian citizenship.
This is message 2 in The Twelve Disciples series Luke 22:31-32 As Jesus prepared for the cross, he warned Peter of Satan's desire to test him, allowing Peter's weaknesses to surface and showing his need for reliance on the Lord. After Peter's failure, Jesus graciously restored him, calling him to strengthen his fellow believers. Peter's transformation is evident as he becomes a leader in the early church, boldy preaches at pentecost, and writes letters encouraging believers under persecution. Peter's life reveals the power of God's grace to restore and equip a surrendered heart for His service.

Sermon by Bryce Kittinger on Sunday, October 13th at Chenal Valley Church.
Lisa and I begin our conversation on persevering in marriage. I make my argument against Pete Rose, while affirming my admiration of him, consider the parallels between Isaac's and Jacob's courtships, and Jesus securing His bride and consider how Michaelangelo got David right, and where he got him wrong.
Today, we explore the powerful hymn, "How Great Thou Art."

From the miracle of pregnancy and child birth to the amazing and necessary design of sleep, God's awesome creation is all around us. When we stop to appreciate God's work, we can strengthen our faith in him.
In the eighth stanza of Psalm 119, we cry out to God, for He Himself is our inheritance. As He shows us His gracious favor through His Word, He turns our feet toward His testimonies. Although the wicked surround us with their cords, the LORD surrounds us even more with His Church. He strengthens us by His Word in the midst of those who fear His name. Rev. Kurt Ulmer, pastor at Faith Lutheran Church in Wylie, TX, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 119:57-64. "God's Word Is Our Great Heritage” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through Psalm 119. As this longest Psalm takes us through an acrostic journey through the Hebrew alphabet, our God teaches us to find joy, refuge, strength, and life in His Word, which is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.

Throughout the Book of Mormon, the Savior pronounces fifty-three “I am” statements as he details his purpose and declares his divine identity. In 2 Nephi 29: 8 – 9 he explains that he does so for a particular reason, “Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another. […]. And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever […]” (emphasis added). In this next episode Dr. Joshua M. Matson, assistant professor of ancient scripture, discusses his recent article “Coming to Know Christ through the ‘I Am' Statements in the Book of Mormon” and explains the significant presence of these statements in the Bible and Restoration scriptures. He outlines how the Savior utilizes two forms of “I am” statements—metaphorical (depicting what he does) and absolute (his titles or depicting who he is)—throughout the scriptures to proclaim his role and character. Professor Matson explains that the “I am” statements in the Book of Mormon serve as another witness of Jesus Christ, alongside similar “I am” statements presented in the Old and New Testaments, and that they are spoken by both the premortal Jehovah and the resurrected Jesus Christ. In studying the “I am” statements we may come to know the Savior in his own words and through his own perspective.

“Latter-day Saints believe in the pursuit of truth through ‘study and faith' and are thus not opposed to intellectual examination of scripture” (Dr. David R. Seely). One way we might examine the scriptures is through the use of biblical criticism, or historical criticism, an approach regularly used by biblical scholars to assess the meaning of a text—it's original context, audience, and authorship. In this episode Dr. Jason Combs, associate professor of ancient scripture, discussed his chapter “Historical Criticism of the Bible among the Latter-day Saints.” He outlines the history of biblical criticism and explains how it may serve as a tool to aid our scripture study. Further, Dr. Combs details how such approaches may provide a more well-rounded vision of the scriptures, especially in studying the Old and New Testaments and comparing multiple accounts of the same events. In doing so we should balance biblical criticism with the application of scriptures and the gospel to our daily lives.
