Longing for Joy with Alastair Sterne
Originally Published Dec. 2024 “I have told you these things so that you will be filled with my joy. Yes, your joy will overflow!” – John 15:11 (NLT) What if joy is closer than you think? We all want to experience joy, but sometimes it can feel just out of reach. Life gets busy, circumstances...

Living with Hope in the Midst of Struggle with Dr. Alan Noble (Rewind)
What do you do when simply getting through everyday life feels like a burden? We live in a time when anxiety, depression, loneliness, and other mental health struggles are increasingly common. While we may be more willing to talk about these struggles than previous generations, many people still...

The Burden & Gift of Living
What does it mean to live faithfully when life feels heavy? Life is a gift, but that doesn’t mean it always feels like one. We experience beauty, joy, relationships, and moments of deep meaning alongside anxiety, disappointment, grief, uncertainty, and seasons when simply making it through the…

Delighting in Jesus with Asheritah Ciuciu (Rewind)
There’s a question at the heart of the new book “Delighting in Jesus” that caught my attention: it says, “I know I should read by Bible and pray every day, but I’m just not consistent. For many Christians, ‘daily devotions’ and ‘spiritual disciplines’ strike guilt and shame in our hearts. But…

Choose to Move In (Rewind)
“Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” - John 15:12-13 We live in a time when it has become incredibly easy to disengage. It’s easier to stay home. Easier to keep scrolling. Easier to avoid someone else’s mess. Easier to...

A Gentle Touch: Love Languages in Action
“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others.” - 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (NLT) Sometimes the most loving thing you can do for someone is stop trying to fix their...

Jesus Looked at Him and Loved Him
“Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth. Jesus looked around and said to his...

The Invitation to Confession with Jamin Goggin (Rewind)
“The act of confessing our sins to one another is a graced invitation to practice the way of faith, hope, and love. The soul tempted to despair will be particularly allergic to ecclesial confession, but it is here that they will find great remedy for their agonizing condition. For in confessing...

The Urgency of Grace in a Worn-Out World (Rewind)
“Why do some of us experience Christianity as a burden and others as a refuge? The answer, I am convinced, has to do with grace. Grace is the Big Relief at the heart of Christianity. When grace is down-played or qualified, faith turns into a project and then a burden. Project religion - the…

Falling in Love with Jesus with JD Lyonhart (Rewind)
“For the beauty of a journey is that it doesn’t need to be just one thing but can be many things spread out over time and over the many legs of the adventure . . . The Christian story may have already played out with robed people in a bygone past, but I believe it also continues to move, roll on,...

The 𝐼𝑠-𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠 of God: What it Means to be 𝐵𝑒𝑖𝑛𝑔 Itself with JD Lyonhart
“And to this the voice bellowed: ‘I AM WHO I AM.’” . . . “At first, I thought maybe this was just God’s way of saying, ‘Hey, I exist. I AM real. Notice me!’ Or maybe it was God’s way of avoiding the question. I ask, ‘Who are you?’ and he says, ‘I AM WHAT I AM.’ In other words, it’s none of your...

Navigating the Bible: The Message of the New Testament with Ben Witherington III
In August of 2024 I started a series called Navigating the Bible with the goal of talking about every book of the Bible. I didn’t know at the time how long it would take. I didn’t know who would say yes to coming on with me to talk about these books. But now, just about two years later, this is…

Navigating the Bible: 1, 2 & 3 John

Navigating the Bible: James
“What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, ‘Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well’ - but then you don’t...

Navigating the Bible: Hebrews

Navigating the Bible: Pastoral Epistles

Navigating the Bible: Ephesians
“God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good…

Navigating the Bible: Galatians
“Don’t be misled - you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant. Those who live only to satisfy their own sinful nature will harvest decay and death from that sinful nature. But those who live to please the Spirit will harvest everlasting life from the Spirit. So…

“If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

God's Homecoming with N.T. Wright
“Most people today imagine that the point of Christianity is ‘to go to heaven when you die.’ That’s what most believers believe. It’s what most unbelievers believe. They are all wrong. The point of Christianity is not that we should go to heaven. The point of Christianity is that heaven should…

Navigating the Bible: Romans
“What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? No one—for God himself has given…

Navigating the Bible: The Intertestamental Period
As we look forward to diving into the New Testament together, we must acknowledge a kind of elephant in the room. Between Malachi, the end of the Old Testament, and the events starting the New Testament there is a 400-year gap. Sometimes referred to as “The Silent Period,” the Intertestamental...

Knowing God Through the Old Testament with Christopher Wright
As a part of the Navigating the Bible series, one of the questions I always ask is “what does this book teach us about God.” The answer is almost always: a lot. The Old Testament is an invitation to look at the biggest question of the universe: who. That’s right, it’s not why - it’s who. As we…

Navigating the Bible: Malachi
Then those who feared the Lord spoke with each other, and the Lord listened to what they said. In his presence, a scroll of remembrance was written to record the names of those who feared him and always thought about the honor of his name. 17 “They will be my people,” says the Lord of Heaven’s...

Navigating the Bible: Zephaniah
What sorrow awaits rebellious, polluted Jerusalem, the city of violence and crime! No one can tell it anything; it refuses all correction. It does not trust in the Lord or draw near to its God. Its leaders are like roaring lions hunting for their victims. Its judges are like ravenous wolves at...

Navigating the Bible: Habakkuk
“What good is an idol carved by man, or a cast image that deceives you? How foolish to trust in your own creation - a god that can’t even talk! What sorrow awaits you who say to wooden idols, ‘Wake up and save us!’ To speechless stone images you say, ‘Rise up and teach us!’ Can an idol tell you...

Navigating the Bible: Obadiah
“The Lord says to Edom, ‘I will cut you down to size among the nations; you will be greatly despised. You have been deceived by your own pride because you live in a rock fortress and make your home high in the mountains. “Who can ever reach us way up here?” you ask boastfully. But even if you…
