  1. Live a Life of Obedience

    Live a Life of Obedience

    Esther saw the need—and by God’s strength, she met the need. In this powerful final message, Dr. Michael Youssef shows how God, in His sovereign purpose, placed Esther in the palace to stand in the gap for His people. Scripture—the inerrant Word of God—makes it clear: Esther was not in that position by accident. She was called to intercede, obey, and act when obedience was costly. Like Hannah and Jochebed, Esther teaches believers today to trust God when fear is real and the stakes are high. Because Jesus Christ is the divine Savior and the only hope for sinners, God’s people must not hide in comfort or silence. This message calls you to: Repent of passivity and fear-driven delay, Pray with urgency and intercede for others, Obey God without compromise, Say “Here I am” and step forward for His purposes—for such a time as this. Scripture Focus: Esther 4:13–16  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  2. Live a Life of Trust

    1D AGO

    Live a Life of Trust

    Episode Description: When the culture turns hostile, parents can’t afford passive faith. In this powerful message, Dr. Michael Youssef highlights Jochebed, the mother of Moses, and shows what fearless obedience looks like under pressure. Jochebed refused Pharaoh’s evil decree. She trusted the living God, protected her son, and prepared him with the Truth of God’s Word. Her faith is a wake-up call for today: Scripture is inerrant, God is sovereign, and the next generation is worth fighting for. This episode calls believers—especially parents—to: Refuse to hand children over to the world’s lies, Intercede with urgency and persistence, Teach Biblical Truth without compromise, Point sons and daughters to repentance, faith, and obedience to Jesus Christ, the divine Son of God. Only Jesus saves sinners and gives eternal life. And like Jochebed, we must act with courage while there is still time. Scripture Focus: Exodus 2:1-10; Heb 11:23  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  3. Live a Life of Surrender

    2D AGO

    Live a Life of Surrender

    In Part 2 of Ancient Women Speaking to Our Generation, Dr. Michael A. Youssef points to Hannah to show what real surrender looks like—refusing despair and bowing fully before the Lord. Her tears, prayers, and praise prove that prayer is not weakness, but spiritual warfare. Episode Description: This generation is loud with rebellion and heavy with despair—but God is still looking for surrendered hearts. In this message, Dr. Michael A. Youssef highlights Hannah’s example to call believers to a surrender that doesn’t bargain with God, but trusts Him without compromise. Hannah came to the Lord with humility, repentance, and wholehearted dependence. She didn’t demand—she submitted. And God honored her faith. Dr. Youssef reminds us: prayer is warfare, and surrender is not loss—it is obedience to the sovereign God. This episode calls believers to: Turn tears into prayer, not bitterness, Trust God’s Word without compromise, Intercede boldly for the next generation, Raise children in Biblical Truth, Live for God’s glory alone. Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 2  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  4. Live a Life of Prayer

    3D AGO

    Live a Life of Prayer

    When suffering hits, many grow cold. Hannah grew desperate—for God. In this message, Dr. Michael Youssef points to Hannah’s life in 1 Samuel and shows why brokenness before the Lord is not weakness—it’s the doorway to God’s blessing. Hannah took her pain to God in persistent prayer. She didn’t perform. She poured out her heart. And Scripture makes this clear: God alone hears and answers, and He honors repentant, surrendered hearts that seek Him without excuses. Hannah’s prayer didn’t just change her story—it shaped history. God gave her Samuel, a key servant in God’s redemptive plan that ultimately points to Jesus Christ, the Savior. Dr. Youssef uses Hannah’s example to confront spiritual complacency and call the Church back to fervent intercession, trusting the authority of God’s Word and God’s sovereign power to accomplish His purposes for His Kingdom. This episode calls you to: Turn suffering into surrendered prayer, Repent of prayerlessness and complacency, Intercede with urgency for the next generation, Trust God’s timing and power to act. Scripture Focus: 1 Samuel 1-2  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  5. Courage in a Compromising Age

    6D AGO

    Courage in a Compromising Age

    God honors courage—and He exposes compromise. In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef walks through Judges 4–5 and shows how God used Deborah, a “mother in Israel,” to call His people back to bold obedience. Deborah moved forward in faith. Barak hesitated. And that hesitation points to a deeper problem: unbelief. Dr. Youssef connects this to today’s culture of indecision and tolerance of error, reminding believers that God’s Word is inerrant and His commands are not optional. When God speaks, His people must obey—without delay. This episode calls you to: Repent of divided loyalties, Trust God’s promises over fear, Stand firm in Gospel Truth, Intercede as darkness increases, Lead with courage and shine for Christ without compromise. Scripture Focus: Judges 4–5  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  6. Arms Wide Open

    MAY 7

    Arms Wide Open

    The rich young ruler wasn’t an atheist or a rebel. He was religious, successful, and outwardly moral—yet he lacked the one thing that matters: surrender to Jesus Christ. In this final message of Encountering Christ, Dr. Michael Youssef brings Matthew 19 straight into our world, exposing how pride and self-reliance keep souls from the Savior. When Jesus put His finger on the man’s idol, the ruler chose his treasure over Christ—and walked away sorrowful. Dr. Youssef warns that the same trap claims many today: holding tight to what cannot save while rejecting the only One who can. This episode calls you to: Identify the idol you refuse to surrender, Turn from pride and self-salvation, Repent and trust the sinless Son of God, Come to Christ with an open, humbled heart. Salvation is not earned by effort—it is received by repentance and complete trust in Jesus. And the Good News remains: His arms are still wide open to receive the humble. Scripture Focus: Matthew 19:16–22  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  7. He Can Open Your Eyes

    MAY 6

    He Can Open Your Eyes

    Many people can see the world clearly and still be blind where it matters most. In this urgent message from the Encountering Christ series, Dr. Michael Youssef proclaims a sobering Truth: sin leaves every person spiritually blind, cut off from the light of God. Through Jesus’ miraculous healing of the man born blind in John 9, Dr. Youssef shows that Christ is not only a healer—He is the only Savior who can open the eyes of the soul. Physical sight fades. But spiritual blindness leads to eternal death unless Christ intervenes. This episode calls you to: Admit the blindness sin creates, Reject self-trust and spiritual pride, Turn to Jesus Christ in repentance and faith, Receive the Light that leads to life. If you’ve been living in confusion, darkness, or dead religion, this message points you to the only One who can change everything. Jesus alone is the Light of the World—and He can open your eyes today. Scripture Focus: John 9  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate

  8. Who is Going to Heaven?

    MAY 5

    Who is Going to Heaven?

    Everyone has an opinion about Heaven—but only Jesus has the authority to define the way. In this soul-searching episode, Dr. Michael Youssef takes you to John 3 and the nighttime conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus to expose a Truth our culture rejects: religion can’t save. Good deeds, moral living, and church involvement cannot cleanse the sin nature we all carry. Jesus didn’t say, “Try harder.” He said, “You must be born again.” Salvation is not self-improvement—it is new life given by the Spirit of God, purchased by Christ’s atoning death on the Cross and confirmed by His resurrection. This episode is a clear call to: Stop trusting in religion or performance, Repent and place your faith in Jesus Christ alone, Receive the new birth by the Spirit, Proclaim this Gospel Truth boldly in a world full of deception. Scripture Focus: John 3:1–15  If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.  🙏 Pastoral Care & Prayer TeamsOur trained prayer partners and pastoral care team are available to pray with you and offer Biblical support.https://ltw.org/care 💬 Receive personal answers to your faith questions—anytime, day or night—at:https://myfaithassistant.com If you’ve been blessed by this podcast, please consider a tax-deductible donation to help extend this ministry—so another person can be encouraged, prayed for, and pointed to Christ. ❤️ Support Leading The Way:https://www.ltw.org/donate
