Are the Headlines End-Times? [Podcast]

2 Thessalonians

Jesus is coming soon. But so what? If one thing is constant in this world, it’s that the news is bad. The simple fact is: the news is a business, and when tragedy strikes, business is good.

But do today’s terrible headlines mean the end is near? And if so, so what??

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re looking at the truth about the end-times.

Don’t worry! Above the clamor of our world’s bad news, Scripture proclaims the very BEST news we could imagine.

The Best Way to See Yourself [Podcast]

Book of Colossians

What defines you? In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re getting honest about how we see ourselves. Even though we know we shouldn’t, we tend to judge ourselves (and others) by the externals—our looks and our clothes, our jobs and our money, our cars and our kids, our houses and spouses.

But take all that away. What defines you?

The Scriptures hold the key to understanding who you truly are.

Finding Love in a World of Hurt [Podcast]

1 Corinthians 13

Think of the most powerful messages you’ve heard. Were they long or short? In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re looking at a chapter of Scripture that proves we don’t have to say a lot for our words to be powerful. I’m talking about 1 Corinthians chapter 13. In just thirteen short, inspired verses, Paul gets down to the essence of what it means to love.

Why God Seems So Inefficient In Your Life [Podcast]

Selections from the Book of Acts

What do you do when God directs you down a path that makes no sense? Honestly, I’ve lost count of the number of times the Lord has led me in a direction that, well, just seems so terribly inefficient!

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’ll be in the book of Acts to look at times Peter and Paul must have felt the same way. So often, we know where we’re headed; we feel ready. But instead of taking us on a direct path, the Lord throws in a hard left turn. We all know the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, so why does God always seem to take us the long way?

There’s an answer, and it’s a good one!
