Episodes

  1. APOSTATE ARROGANCE (Jude 8-11)

    Jude does not pull any punches to describe the arrogance of those who defect from Jesus and lure others to leave as well.

  2. THREE ALARM FIRE (Jude 5-7)

    If we think that God's grace is something to play with and that God would never destroy those he once saved, an alarm is sounding in Jude 5-7.

  3. INSIDE JOB (Jude 4)

    The tree's bark and fruit outside can look good, but what's going on inside? Be very careful who you let in.

  4. WAR CRY (Jude 3)

    Since we are in a firm position in Christ (Jude 1-2), we are called up to get in the fight for the faith (Jude 3).

  5. KNOW YOUR PLACE (JUDE 1-2)

    You may be a "turtle on a fencepost," but no one will ever knock you off.

  6. AN URGENT TELEGRAM (Jude 1-25)

    We all want to finish well. To do so, Jude gives us an urgent reminder.

  7. EIGHT ELEMENTS OF THE END (Matthew 24)

    In Matthew 24, Jesus lays out the eight key components of biblical teaching on the end of time. If anyone knows, He does!

  8. LIVING WITH QUESTIONS (Daniel 12.5-13)

    Answers to our questions often create more questions. Believe anyway!

  9. IMAGINE (Daniel 12.1-4)

    The way through hard times in the present and to come is to imagine the unfolding of God's great and precious promises.

  10. MAKING WRONGS RIGHT (Exodus 34, 18, 32)

    A good and compassionate nation will always embrace true justice as well as forgiveness in making wrongs right.

  11. ORDERED FREEDOM (Exodus 20-24)

    Freedom flourishes best in a society where trust prevails and the principles behind freedom are intentionally handed down to the next generation. This sort of trust and influence comes only in a committed relationship with God through Jesus Christ where obedience is the priority.

  12. EAST OF EDEN (Exodus 15-17, 32)

    Freedom will only come when we stop blaming others and surrender to what God has done to win our freedom from sin.

  13. THE FREEDOM RECIPE (Exodus 3.1-8; 19.16-19)

    As we are about to celebrate America's 250th birthday, we pause our study of Daniel for a short series I have entitled "The Rebirth of Freedom." These messages are drawn from Os Guinness's book entitled The Magna Carta of Humanity: Sinai's Revolutionary Faith and the Future of Freedom. Guinness...

  14. THE FINAL KING (Daniel 11:36-45)

    Are you aware that Daniel 11:36-45 describes a coming vicious ruler yet future to us? Do you know how to have hope in the face of his horrors?

  15. CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE (Daniel 11:1-35)

    It is infuriating that God's people are always feeling caught in the middle of the endless battle of the wicked. Why is this? Stick it out with this challenging but ignored Bible chapter and the paydirt will be rich.

  16. BEHIND THE CURTAIN (Daniel 10:1-21)

    If we patiently wade through Daniel's vision, we find a critical but often forgotten method on how to overcome the spiritual forces of darkness and strongholds that keep us bound in our own day. This is war!

  17. COUNTDOWN TO CHRIST (Daniel 9:20-27)

    Gabriel gives Daniel an amazingly accurate prediction of the rebuilding of Jerusalem, the coming of Christ, and the events thereafter. All of this helps us understand a bit more about the confusing yet hopeful nature of predictive prophecy.

  18. THE EXIT FROM EXILE (Daniel 9:1-19)

    If you are exiled and saddened by losses due to past choices you now know are the cause, Daniel's prayer gives the combination needed to unlock the way out.

  19. WHEN EMPIRES COLLIDE (Daniel 8:1-27)

    This one is challenging. Stay with it. The payoff is great. God's control of the future does not nullify the importance of our choices.

  20. THE ETERNAL WIN (Daniel 7:15-28)

    Ugly beasts will arise and attack God's people, but in Christ we have already won. God's win is final, forever, and never to be contested again.

  21. THE SON OF MAN REIGNS (Daniel 7:1-14)

    Prophecy is strange, but yields great riches to those who do not give up on it. Don't look at the monsters; look at your King.

  22. LION MUZZLING FAITH (Daniel. 6:16-28)

    Faith ruins your enemy's appetite and shuts his mouth.

  23. THE DIVINE DILEMMA (Dan. 6:1-15)

    Darius' dilemma forshadows the tensions between God's justice and love in response to man's sin. Daniel's survival of the lion's den is a foreshadowing of Christ's conquering the grave.

  24. PREACHING AT THE PARTY (Daniel 5:13-31)

    If we are partying life away, God will suddenly crash our party.

  25. GRAFFITI FROM GOD (Daniel 5:1-12)

    Is God writing on your wall?

  26. LOSING YOUR MIND TO REGAIN YOUR SENSE (Daniel 4:19-37)

    Sometime we must lose it all to see what is of real value.

  27. A TREE FALLS IN BABYLON (Daniel 4:1-18)

    The journey to faith in Yahweh requires His cutting down the "trees" we trust in.

  28. FIREPROOF (Daniel 3:19-30)

    Daniel's friends are fireproof, and foreshadow something far greater.

  29. WE WILL NOT BOW (Daniel 3:8-18)

    Daniel's three friends challange us to ask ourselves: Are we driven by external pressures or internal principles?

  30. BOW OR BURN (Daniel 3:1-7)

    Having the strength to stand up and stand out when the world pressures you to bow and blend in.

  31. THE STONE (Dan. 2:44-45)

    What the stone of God crushing the statues of man means to us today.

  32. THE STATUE (Daniel 2:31-43)

    What we learn when the king of the world's superpower 600 years before Christ is warned his throne will be crushed.

  33. WISDOM FROM ABOVE (Daniel 2:19-30)

    Nebuchadnezzar's dream and Daniel's interpretation provides a needed grid for understanding why, how, and when God reveals Himself and His wisdom.

  34. MY TIME (Daniel 2:12-18)

    Daniel models how to seize your moment to handle a crisis.

  35. BAD DREAMS (Daniel 2:1-11)

    Nebuchadnezzar's baffling dream illustrates the confusion and despair many in the world have today. Only God is the source of the true wisdom needed to answer life's deepest questions.

  36. BLOOM WHERE YOU'RE PLANTED (Daniel 1:8-21)

    Daniel gives us insights on how God makes us flourish spiritually in forbidding places.

  37. BRAINWASHED (Daniel 1:3-7)

    Daniel and his friends give us great insight on how to live in two opposing worlds without compromise.

  38. TAKEN (Daniel 1:1-2)

    What do we do when the world "takes" us captive and we can do nothing but go along?
