    Pastor Podcast - John 13:1-17 - Is Jesus Your Example?

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments The night before the cross, Jesus knows exactly what is coming and He still gets up from supper, wraps a towel around His waist, and washes dirty feet. That is not a sweet illustration for a kids’ story. It is the King of Kings using His authority to go lower than everyone else, and it forces a question we cannot dodge: when life gets urgent, do we turn inward, or do we love outward? We walk through John 13:1-17 and linger on the line that changes everything: “He loved them to the end.” We talk about what that means in real life, especially when love is inconvenient, costly, or unseen. We also dig into Peter’s pushback and Jesus’ blunt words about cleansing, because the heart of the passage is not only an example to copy, but a Savior who must wash us. Once we are clean in Christ, we still need ongoing repentance, confession, and sanctification as we keep walking through a messy world. Then we bring it home: Jesus does not just say “serve.” He says you will be blessed if you do it, and we have seen that joy firsthand. If you have ever struggled with motives, limits, or the temptation to be a taker instead of a giver, this conversation will meet you where you are and call you higher by calling you lower.

    S7E43 - Luke 20:1-18 - By Whose Authority???

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Someone can ask the “right” question and still be running from the truth. In Luke 20:1–18, the chief priests, scribes, and elders demand to know by what authority Jesus teaches and acts, and we slow down long enough to see what’s really happening: their question isn’t curiosity, it’s self-protection. We talk about how Jesus’ counter-question about John the Baptist exposes willful ignorance, political calculation, and the kind of pride that refuses to surrender even when God’s work is right in front of you. From there, we dig into the parable of the wicked tenants and connect it to Israel’s history, the prophets, and God’s extraordinary patience. We wrestle with a hard but loving warning: God’s mercy is a gift, not an excuse, and repeated invitations to repent are not the same thing as permission to stay the same. If you’ve ever assumed you’ll “deal with it later,” this conversation aims straight at that false comfort. Finally, we land on the arrival of the beloved Son and Jesus’ claim as the cornerstone from Psalm 118. That image forces a decision: build your life on Christ’s authority in humble brokenness, or keep resisting until the cornerstone becomes judgment. If you care about Christian discipleship, biblical authority, repentance, and what Passion Week reveals about the human heart, you’ll find plenty to sit with here.

    Pastor Podcast - Luke 23:39-43 - The Promise of Paradise

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Death is the one statistic none of us can dodge, and we don’t talk about it nearly enough. We sit down with Herb to unpack why Luke 23 feels so personal, especially the moment Jesus speaks assurance to the thief on the cross. Along the way, we celebrate a big milestone: Herb finishing his Master of Divinity, and what God teaches over long seasons of steady, ordinary faithfulness. We wrestle with the way our stories differ and still get gathered under one bigger story. Some of us grew up around church, some of us came to faith at 28 or 60, and all of us bring real brokenness, loss, and questions. The gospel doesn’t erase your past; it reframes it. That’s why the cross is not just an event in history, it becomes the center of your history, giving Christian assurance that holds when feelings don’t. Then we zoom out to the Bible’s storyline: Genesis, the fall, why death feels so wrong, and why Jesus’ promise of “paradise” is more than poetic language. We talk about paradise as a pleasure garden, a restored Eden, and how the road to Emmaus shows the whole Bible pointing to Christ. We also get practical about what changes Monday morning: prayer that doesn’t pretend, daily renewal in Scripture, real discipleship, and learning compassion so our peace becomes a witness to the people around us.

    S7E42 - Luke 19:28-48 - Coronation, Consequences & Cleansing

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments The most revealing moments in the Gospel of Luke aren’t always the loudest miracles. Sometimes it’s a simple choice like riding into Jerusalem on a colt and the meaning behind it changes everything. We open Luke 19:28-48 and watch Jesus step into the city as the promised King, fulfilling prophecy with deliberate humility. With Rico and Jonathan Bush, we talk through why Zechariah 9:9 matters, how the donkey points to rightful kingship, and what it means when Jesus says that if the people stay quiet, even the stones will cry out. From there, Luke shifts fast. The crowd celebrates “peace,” but Jesus weeps over Jerusalem because they miss the kind of peace they actually need. We dig into the weight of His warning, the reality of consequences for rejection, and how God’s heart shows both holiness and grief. That tension still hits home today when we want Jesus to fix the world while ignoring the deeper problem of sin and our need for reconciliation with God. Then comes the part many people don’t know what to do with: Jesus cleansing the temple. We talk about spiritual abuse, money and power, and why righteous zeal belongs in God’s house. We also make it personal, connecting temple cleansing to sanctification, accountability, marriage habits like praying together, and Jude’s warning to test every message against Scripture. If you’ve ever wondered whether you treat Jesus as a helpful friend or the rightful King of your life, this conversation is for you.

    Witness Wednesday - Nancy Carol Willis - Trusting God When Life Breaks

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Fear can look like faith from the outside. Nancy Carroll Willis grew up in church, sang in the choir, did all the “right” things, and still walked away with a picture of God as a punisher instead of a Father who loves. What changed was not a motivational slogan or a perfect plan. It was a moment in Scripture that finally made the cost of the cross personal, and it rewired everything she believed about God’s heart toward her. Nancy takes us through the long road from adoption and feeling unwanted, to building a creative career on her own, to the shock of a terminal cancer diagnosis in her marriage. We also talk honestly about the damage of “name it and claim it” teaching, why suffering is not proof of weak faith, and how grief can either harden you or invite you into deeper trust. Her story includes a devastating stretch of loss, a “still small voice” asking her to trust, and the slow surrender that followed. That surrender eventually becomes a calling: helping ordinary Christians share their faith story as a clear, simple Christian testimony. We dig into why personal stories matter for evangelism, discipleship, and the Great Commission, how to get past the fear of offending people, and what her nonprofit WhyILoveJesus.org is doing through workshops, small groups, and global story archives, including work in Kenya.

    Pastor Podcast - 2 Corinthians 5:1-10 - Courageous Christianity

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Fear can feel automatic, like it’s wired into your personality. But when Paul says, “we are always of good courage,” he’s pointing to something deeper than temperament: assurance. Pastor Mark and Trevor Burrus Jr. open 2 Corinthians 5:1-10 and show how a clear view of eternity changes how we face pressure, persecution, and the slow grind of suffering. If you’ve ever wanted to be bold but felt stuck in hesitation, this conversation gives you a sturdier foundation than hype or self-talk.  We talk through Paul’s picture of the body as a temporary “tent,” the groaning we all experience in a broken world, and the promise of a heavenly home that God prepares for His people. That future hope isn’t meant to make us detach from real life, but to steady us in it, including when we grieve. We also spend time on the Holy Spirit as a guarantee, God’s deposit that makes the Christian life more than wishful thinking. Assurance of salvation leads to courage because we’re not trying to earn acceptance, we’re living from it.  We then clear up a common confusion around the judgment seat of Christ. For believers, the Bema seat is about evaluation and reward, not condemnation, and it invites a “no regrets” approach to the time we’ve been given.

    S7E41 - Luke 18:31 - 19:10 - Revelation, Recognition & Rescue

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Jesus tells the twelve exactly what will happen in Jerusalem, and they still cannot see it. That moment in Luke 18 hits hard because it exposes something we all carry: we can be near the truth, hear the words, and still miss the weight of what God is doing. We walk through Luke 18:31 to 19:10 using three anchors that shape the whole conversation: revelation, recognition, and rescue. First, Jesus reveals his mission with shocking clarity, tying his suffering, death, and resurrection to what the prophets promised. Then we watch recognition break through in Jericho when a blind beggar cries out “Son of David, have mercy on me” and refuses to be silenced by the crowd. Jesus stops, listens, and heals, showing a King who is powerful and interruptible, and reminding us that faith is not a volume contest but a persistent trust aimed at God’s glory. Finally, rescue gets personal with Zacchaeus. He climbs a tree just to get a glimpse, and Jesus calls his name, steps into his home, and sparks real repentance and restitution. We contrast Zacchaeus with the rich young ruler and ask the uncomfortable question: do we secretly believe some people are too broken, too corrupt, or too far gone for grace? Luke ends the story with the clearest summary of Jesus’ purpose: “The Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Subscribe for more Bible teaching, share this with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

    Pastor Podcast - 2 Corinthians 4 - Don't Give Up!

    Send Us Your Questions/Comments Discouragement has a way of feeling personal, like you’re the only one stuck in it, and like quitting would finally bring relief. We push back on that lie by walking slowly through 2 Corinthians 4, where Paul admits the pressure is real while insisting we “do not lose heart.” We talk about the context of false teachers in Corinth, why Paul defends the gospel so fiercely, and why his transparency still encourages Christians navigating a loud, skeptical culture today.  We unpack four simple, weight-bearing truths: we have reason to stay discouraged but we don’t; we have reason to quit but we won’t; we keep going because we actually believe what we say we believe; and we endure by fixing our focus on what’s eternal. Along the way, we share stories that capture the emotional swing of ministry and everyday faithfulness, from discouraging nights that make you question everything to reminders that God often works on a timeline we can’t predict. If you’ve ever wondered whether your prayers, witness, parenting, serving, or quiet obedience are making any difference, this will meet you right where you are.  We also get practical about spiritual renewal: how the mercy of God steadies the heart, what “jars of clay” teaches us about weakness and strength, and why prayer, Scripture, and Christian community aren’t add-ons but lifelines. If you want Christian encouragement, biblical perspective on suffering, and a clearer eternal perspective that helps you endure without pretending life doesn’t hurt, press play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s tired, and leave a review so more people can find hope when they’re tempted to quit.
