Steve as he teaches through the parables how we can reach people with the hope we have in Christ.

  6. 114

    Pointing People to Christ

    To live out the Great Commission does not necessarily mean to go to far away lands to win souls for Christ. Take a listen to Ps. Steve as he teaches us from Jesus' parable on how we can be faithful followers, pointing people to Christ.

  7. 113

    God Follows Through On His Word

    We live in a world of no guarantees. There is no guarantee when we step out of the house, if we would come back safe. There is no guarantee our loved ones wouldn't break our hearts at some point. There is no guarantee that what you have today in this world would last as long as you want them to. But as Christ followers, we have a great assurance that the God we love and serve is the same. Take a listen to Ps. Steve as he opens the scriptures and teaches us how we can live in awe and confidence that our God is a promise keeper.

    Heavenly Mindedness

    Have you ever wondered how sophisticated our human body is, or how the earth is a perfect planet to sustain life?

Take a listen to Kaarina as she points out the greatness of our creator and how we need to live lives with a heavenly perspective.

  9. 111

  11. 109

    The Problem of 'Me'

    We live in a 'ME' culture today. We are seeing more and more changes in culture coming from the thought that the center of the world is 'Me'. The world must accommodate 'Me' - my ideologies and my way of thinking. Does that ring a bell? Take a listen to Bob Luther, as he exposes today's culture and brings a biblical perspective on how we can navigate and safeguard ourselves in living lives pleasing to God.

  12. 108

    Stop Wasting Time

    Martha and Mary

    In today's world, being productive means to be finishing tasks and accomplishing things. With that comes the expectation that we need to be doing something all through the day to be productive.

Steve as he teaches us from the lives of Martha and Mary the importance of being still in the presence of God.

  16. 104

Steve as he teaches from the life of Joshua how we can live our lives serving Him faithfully.

  20. 100

    Joseph
