    God's Grace

    In this rich and clarifying message, Pastor Bob Lamb unpacks what “grace” really means—and why so many believers live in what he calls self-imposed spiritual poverty. Far beyond a cliché idea of “unmerited favor,” Pastor Lamb shows from Scripture that grace is God’s gift-giving heart in action: everything God gives—salvation, righteousness, power to live a godly life—comes by grace, through faith. Drawing from Romans, Ephesians, 2 Corinthians, and 2 Peter, he explains that all the “great and precious promises” are part of a complete salvation package, provided at the cross and made available to every believer. We don’t receive anything from God on a merit system; we receive on the grace system. As Pastor Lamb puts it, “Anybody, anywhere, anytime that receives anything from God receives it on the same basis.” Key themes in this episode include: What grace is and what “cheap grace” gets wrong Why “all things are yours” in Christ, even if you’re not yet walking in themHow mixing works with grace actually nullifies graceThe difference between the world’s system of earning and the kingdom’s system of graceThe parable of the laborers in the vineyard as a picture of kingdom graceWhy true grace never becomes a “license to sin,” but instead deepens our love for God and hatred of sin With pastoral warmth and humility, Pastor Bob also shares personally how, looking back over his life, he is profoundly thankful to be “a grace man”—because only God’s grace and mercy can carry any of us all the way home. Perfect for believers who want a stronger, Bible-based understanding of God’s grace and how to live in it every day.

    The Three Crosses

    In this powerful teaching, Pastor Bob Lamb explores the profound spiritual significance of the three crosses at Calvary and what they reveal about God's redemptive plan. Drawing from Luke 23 and supported by passages from Isaiah 53 and 2 Corinthians 5, Pastor Lamb unpacks Jesus' first statement from the cross: "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." This episode examines how the three crosses tell the complete story of redemption—the sinless Savior at the center, a repentant thief who found salvation, and an unrepentant thief who rejected Christ and faced eternal separation from God. These two thieves represent humanity's fundamental choice: to acknowledge Jesus as Lord and receive grace, or to reject Him and face the consequences of sin. Pastor Lamb discusses critical biblical truths including: • The nature of God's grace and the gospel message • Why Jesus' prayer from the cross was answered for all humanity • The role of the Holy Spirit in drawing people to Christ • The difference between faith in what we believe versus faith in Christ alone • How Jesus' suffering and resurrection accomplished complete redemption With his characteristic depth and clarity, Pastor Lamb challenges listeners to understand that salvation is by grace through faith—not works, not moral achievement, but a gift from God. He emphasizes that every person faces the same choice as those two thieves: will you respond to Christ's sacrifice with repentance and faith, or will you reject Him? Perfect for those seeking deeper Bible teaching on redemption, grace, and the cross.

    Mustard Seed Faith

    “Faith as a grain of mustard seed” does not mean what you think. Christan messaging often puts emphasis on the small size of the seed. However, the true relevation from Luke 17 is the quality of the seed, and it’s capacity to produce after it’s own kind. This message is a foundation about how faith operates. Pastor Lamb deciphers the scripture in Luke 17 and teaches us what the Bible has to say about getting our prayers answered.  Hebrews 11:1 says that faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidense of things not seen. Faith is the action that makes hope come into manifestation. Hope means earnest, intense expectation. Bible hope is not wishful thinking. Faith causes what you had hoped for to come to pass — when it is in line with God’s word, and God’s will for you.  Hebrews 10:23 says, “Hold fast your confession of faith without waivering; for he is faithful who has promised.” We understand what confessing sin is, but the scripture also tells us to confess the word of God. It is important to speak what our agreement with God is, regardless of how negative our circumstances appear. Romans 12:3 says that we as born-again Christians are given the same measure of faith. Faith comes by hearing the word. We need to activate it by speaking it. We cannot speak it if we have not heard it. God and his word are one. We need to build the word of God into our spirit until we become God-inside minded.  In this episode, our scripture is read by Dr. Delano Douglas.
