Episodes

  1. Hate Christ Now (2023)

    (Lyrics) Jesus Christ will return! It's been a long time coming, about 2,000 years! Since His death on the cross. Like Peter said, “To whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life!” You can hate Christ now, but He won't stop now. Cause He can't stop now, you can hate Christ now. But He...

  2. The Everlasting Steadfast Love

    In a world that has made it a priority to redefine love, we will take a moment right now to remember the Author of love. Yes! There is, in fact, love, and it was not invented by man. God revealed Himself as love to His creation as He intimately and intentionally spoke everything into existence…

  3. The Fruitful Disciple

    So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living…

  4. The Patient Disciple

    Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near. Don’t grumble against one another, brothers...

  5. The Withdrawn Disciple- Responding to the Tragic Shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas

    How should disciples of Jesus respond when tragedy rears its ugly head in the world? Like people who are in the world but not of the world. Like people who answer to El Elon, the highest power, and not the systems of the world that are vying for power. Let’s continue to pray for the people that…

  6. The Lovely Disciple

    The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray. Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as...

  7. The Blind Disciple

    Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when He found him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?” “Who is he, sir?” the man asked. “Tell me so that I may believe in him.” Jesus said, “You have now seen Him; in fact, He is the one speaking with you.” Then the man said, “Lord, I…

  8. The Free Disciple

    In the beginning, God made us free. But freedom does not mean we can do what ever we want to do. God put Adam in the Garden of Eden and told him he was free to eat from any of the trees in the garden; any tree but the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. That raises a question, and this…

  9. The Snake Trampling Disciple and the Eyes of Little Children

    What is the good news of Jesus Christ? If you said that Jesus died when He was crucified on a Roman cross, and was buried in a tomb and was raised to life on the third day, you would be correct! That is the gospel. The problem is although that is true, and it is the fundamental doctrine a person...

  10. The Welcoming Disciple

    “Anyone who welcomes you welcomes Me, and anyone who welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me. Whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. And if anyone gives even…

    more
  11. The Merciful Disciple

    I thank God that His mercy is not like Commodus’ mercy. God’s mercy is free! When the LORD told Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy,” He was revealing to Moses, and to us, that we cannot earn God’s mercy. In His sovereignty, God gives His mercy freely. And because of what Jesus…

  12. Being Discipled by Jesus' Voice

    As a disciple of Jesus, It is not only possible for me to hear the voice of Jesus, as He primarily speaks through His Word, but Jesus also declared it to be so. In today’s episode, we will take a look at why Jesus specifically said, “My sheep listen to my voice,” when He could have said, “My…

    more
  13. The Anonymous Disciple

    Do “they” even know you are a disciple of Jesus? Does Jesus know? In this episode, we will be exploring a somewhat troubling aspect of discipleship. We will take a look at times when Jesus lost “followers,” even before social media was a thing. For today’s episode, we have to take a moment to…

  14. Lite Disciple

    What does it mean to be an ancient disciple in a modern world? In this episode, we will be grappling with that very question. And from here, we will continue traveling through together to examine what a practical discipleship looks like today. I’m Stephen and this is The Lite Disciple Podcast....

  15. Introducing The Lite Disciple Podcast

    Jesus gathered a group of guys some 2,000 years ago and told them to follow Him. Then He commissioned them to make disciples or followers for Him in all nations of the world! Here at The Lite Disciple Podcast, we will learn how to be Jesus' ancient disciples in a modern world. Be sure to take a...

  16. Seven Sons of Sceva: Is there Power in Jesus' Name? | Lite Burden

    While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They answered, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” So Paul asked, “Then what…

  17. The Apostle Paul's Camping Shop: Work Ethic for Christ Followers | Lite Burden

    After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth. There he met a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had ordered all Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to see them, and because he was a tentmaker as they were, he stayed and...

  18. To An Unknown God: Making Life Work without Jesus | Lite Burden

    When Paul and his companions had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue. As was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving that the Messiah…

  19. What is the Cost of True Freedom? | Lite Burden

    Once when we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a female slave who had a spirit by which she predicted the future. She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling. She followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who…

  20. The God of GPS Navigation | Lite Burden

    Paul came to Derbe and then to Lystra, where a disciple named Timothy lived, whose mother was Jewish and a believer but whose father was a Greek. The believers at Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him. Paul wanted to take him along on the journey, so he circumcised him because of the Jews who…

  21. God's Permission to See Different | Lite Burden

    Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the believers in all the towns where we preached the Word of the Lord and see how they are doing.” Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark, with them, but Paul did not think it wise to take him, because he had deserted them…

  22. The LITE BURDEN Exchange | Lite Burden

    Certain people came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the believers: “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some...

  23. Faith Gives Us the Courage to Believe God's Plan | Lite Burden

    At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed. But the Jews who refused to believe stirred up the other Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. So Paul and Barnabas spent...

  24. Shake the Dust Off Your Feet | Lite Burden

    From Paphos, Paul and his companions sailed to Perga in Pamphylia, where John left them to return to Jerusalem. From Perga they went on to Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath they entered the synagogue and sat down. After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the leaders of the synagogue sent...

  25. Liberated by Wisdom | Lite Burden

    Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch) and Saul. While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the…

  26. The Lord of Mary's Home | Lite Burden

    It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. He had James, the brother of John, put to death with the sword. When he saw that this met with approval among the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This happened during the Festival...

  27. Stay the Course | Lite Burden

    Now those who had been scattered by the persecution that broke out when Stephen was killed traveled as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch, spreading the word only among Jews. Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the...

  28. A Light for the Gentiles | Lite Burden

    The apostles and the believers throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the Word of God. So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcised believers criticized him and said, “You went into the house of uncircumcised men and ate with them.” Starting from the beginning, Peter…

  29. "Hi God, are You there? God..." | Lite Burden

    About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance. He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down…

  30. All Things Together for Good | Lite Burden

    As Peter traveled about the country, he went to visit the Lord’s people who lived in Lydda. There he found a man named Aeneas, who was paralyzed and had been bedridden for eight years. “Aeneas,” Peter said to him, “Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and roll up your mat.” Immediately Aeneas got up.…

  31. Is Jesus Really Good? | Lite Burden

    Saul spent several days with the disciples in Damascus. At once he began to preach in the synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God. All those who heard him were astonished and asked, “Isn’t he the man who raised havoc in Jerusalem among those who call on this name? And hasn’t he come here to take...

  32. "I may have been mistaken." | Lite Burden

    Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem. As...

  33. Jesus, the Hope of Creation | Lite Burden

    Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Go south to the road—the desert road—that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, an important official in charge of all the treasury of the Kandake (which means “queen of the Ethiopians”). This man...

  34. Freedom to the Captives! | Lite Burden

    Now for some time a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria.

  35. Stiff-necked. | Lite Burden

    When the members of the Sanhedrin heard this, they were furious and gnashed their teeth at him.

  36. Shema Brothers and Fathers | Lite Burden

    Then the high priest asked Stephen, “Are these charges true?” To this he replied: “Brothers and fathers, listen to me!

  37. The Face of an Angel | Lite Burden

    Now Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.

  38. Minding God's Business | Lite Burden

    In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.

  39. Rout My Enemies | Lite Burden

    Then the high priest and all his associates, who were members of the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.

  40. Far and Wide | Lite Burden

    The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade.

  41. The Lord is His Name | Lite Burden

    Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property.

Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that...

  42. Hear Our Prayers | Lite Burden

    On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “You made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and...

  43. In This Name | Lite Burden

    The priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to Peter and John while they were speaking to the people.

  44. Let it be so. | Lite Burden

    One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about…

  45. Fisher's of Men | Lite Burden

    When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them…

  46. Resurrection-Powered Restoration | Lite Burden

    In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the day He was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles He had chosen. After His suffering, He presented Himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that He...

  47. Welcome to Lite Burden!

    Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city.
