What Does it Mean to Fear God?
The Bible says to fear God and that we should work out our salvation with fear and trembling. Does this mean we should be afraid of God?While He is King of Kings and Lord of everything, God is not the author of fear. His perfect love casts out fear, including fear of any punishment.In this episode, I share what fear means when it comes to a believer and their relationship with God. You’ll find assurance and confidence that you’re at peace with Him, there’s no looming judgment, and you’re safe and secure in His family!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Where do we as believers keep our focus?In this episode, I share with a caller how the Gospel is set up for you to simply fix your eyes on one thing. When you recognize this singular focus really works, you’ll begin to relax in the beautiful covenant you now live under!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Will Some Believers Be Told, "Depart from Me"?
Jesus says He’ll tell some to depart from Him at the final judgment, because He never knew them. Who exactly is Jesus referring to? Are these people who didn’t do enough? Could this include believers who then lose their salvation? These were the questions of a recent caller to the broadcast.Whether or not we can lose our salvation is one of the most frequent questions I receive. In this short video clip, I share who Jesus is referring to and address whether our quantity of works influences His decision to keep us in the family. Here, you’ll learn why God won’t change His mind about you and see the path to rock-solid assurance that He’ll never leave you!We hope you enjoyed this episode.

Peace in the Midst of Turmoil
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (John 14:27 NIV)Genuine peace can feel elusive when we’re inundated with circumstances, the world, and all that leaves us anxious and stressed.A recent caller to our program asked about the peace mentioned by Jesus and how it’s different from the world’s idea of peace.In this episode, I share about a peace that can be known whether life is going well or not. Let this be an encouragement to you in whatever circumstance you find yourself!

What is the Goal of the Christian Life?
Walking by the Spirit and bearing fruit sound like great goals for Christian living, but how exactly does all of that happen?Some think it’s about spending more time praying, or studying God’s Word, or sharing our faith. Others say it’s about learning Biblical principles to navigate your circumstances and find success in your home, workplace, or finances. In this short episode, I address what walking by the Spirit and real “victory” actually look like. You’ll discover it’s not merely about logging time at certain activities but is as simple and natural as being yourself and expressing Jesus at the same time!

Women Leaders in the Church?
Women serving in church leadership is controversial in many denominations. A recent caller asked if women are allowed to speak in church and if they can hold leadership positions of any kind.1 Corinthians 14 says women should remain silent in church. And 1 Timothy 2 says women shouldn’t teach men. So, what’s up with these two passages?Here, I share my take on whether Paul is saying women today should never speak in church. Plus, I address how these controversial passages reconcile with others in the New Testament where women are clearly serving as prophets and deacons and even hosting home churches.You’re going to love this one, because it’s such an important topic to clarify!
