    Living Stones

    1 Peter 2:4-12. Christians are persecuted across the globe on a regular basis. On average, 13 people are killed every day because of their allegiance to Jesus Christ. According to Open Doors, 5,898 Christians were murdered in 2022. The ministry has also tracked a vast increase in violent persecution in 2023. They anticipate an enormous rise in persecution in 2024. How shall believers respond? In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright explains a sound strategy for living in dangerous times. The apostle Peter encouraged first-century followers of Christ by reminding them that they are selected by God to be living stones and are securely placed next to the living cornerstone, Jesus Christ. Dr. Wright closes this episode with a song sung by Twila Paris. Give it listen and be encouraged. God is working through his church in perilous times.

    Purified by Trials

    1 Peter 1:1-12. Faith is precious to God, more precious than silver or gold. Our faith is important to God because he created faith. (Hebrews 12:1-3) Faith saves us but, like silver and gold, faith must be purified so that we may live transformed lives and give the author of faith, Jesus Christ, all the praise, glory, and honor.   In this episode Dr. Michael Wright, President of Gospel in Real Life, will explain the first twelve verses of 1 Peter. We will learn how God saves the elect and also secures believers for eternity. We will also learn how God secures salvation via the Trinity and uses trials to grow believers into great men and women of God.   Comments or questions?

    Suffering

    1 Peter 1:1-2. As believers, we are sure to encounter trials of all colors. Some will be soft yellow and will be not too hard to manage. Other trials will be white hot and cause us to think we will not survive. The apostle Peter wrote to people who lived in very difficult circumstances, to those who may be killed at any moment simply because they claim allegiance to Jesus Christ. In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright, President of GRL, explains that trials will always be the natural part of being a Christian, but that we have hope in Jesus. Also in this episode, Dr. Wright sat down with Jim Cox, a 30-year friend who was recently diagnosed with ALS. Jim speaks candidly of his "death sentence" but also his hope in the Lord. Jim explains how his church Life Group rushed to his side and have given he and his wife, Melonie, much love and support. You will not want to miss listening to this episode. Comments or questions?

    The Cup

    Luke 22:14-20. The Passion Week of Jesus Christ was divinely planned. Nothing happened by chance. When Jesus reclined at the table with his disciples, on the night of Passover, he took the cup and announced a new covenant in his blood. He provided a deeper meaning to the Seder Supper. When he died, the work of salvation was finished. When Jesus rose from the grave, God made possible for sinners to experience a saving and sanctifying relationship with the resurrected Son of God. It was God's perfect plan that could not be thwarted.In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright goes into depth about cup Jesus shared with his disciples and why it is very important for believers today to not only understand Passover, but to partake of it with a new commitment to die to self and serve the world of people all around the globe.Dr. Michael Wright President of Gospel in Real Life michael@gospelinreallife.org

    Stirred

    Ezra 1-2. We live in spiritual exile. Because of our sin, we are experiencing times of trouble and tribulation. However, when God decrees it, that will all change in an instant. We will be sent home to a place prepared by Christ where there will be no more crying and dying. We see pictures of this in the books of Ezra and Nehemiah. The people of God live in Babylonian exile and have been for 70 years because of personal and corporate sin. However, God promised he would return his people to return.   Jeremiah wrote, "Then after seventy years are completed, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation." (Jeremiah 25:12) Cyrus, King of Persia, defeated Babylon in 536 BC and allowed the Jews to return to Jerusalem. God stirred Cyrus and the Jews headed home. Cyrus decreed that the Jews were to restore the temple, the people, the walls, and the city.   In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright describes the events leading up to the return. Then he shows how our great sovereign God does his will via any vessel he chooses. Knowing that God is in control can bring us great comfort, no matter the circumstances we live in today. We will also learn that God's word is alive and powerful to stir hearts, even our enemies, to perform his will regardless of who is the king.   What a comfort to know that God is at work always in us and around us and, sometimes, despite us. His plans for the ages cannot be thwarted. We can trust the Lord.     Gospel in Real Life can be found on every major platform such as Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

  7. Restoration

    10/15/2022

    Restoration

    We live in perilous times. Is God in control? We see chaos in cities around the world. Does God care? Can he do something about it? The answer for each question is yes. God is indeed in control, and he cares deeply about nations and individual people who live in them. And yes. God can and will do something about the evil which exists in the world.   God's people were warned to turn from their wicked ways, but they did not. Thus, the Jews spent 70 years in Babylonian exile. It was also foretold that King Cyrus of Persia would decree to send the exiles back to Jerusalem. The order launched a series of three returns. The first was led by Zerubbabel who organized the people to rebuild the Temple. The second return was headed by Ezra who ministered to the people. The third was led by Nehemiah who stirred the people to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. It is an incredible story which deserves to be told.   The overarching theme of Ezra-Nehemiah is Restoration. God's people were restored to their city. Once there they rebuilt a place of worship and a worshipping people. It is God's story. In it we see that God is serious about sin and yet has the power to forgive sin and restore people to a place promised.   In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright provides an overview of Ezra and Nehemiah which will reveal great personal and corporate truths about how God works to restore people today. The episode highlights God's sovereignty over a nation and his personal one-on-one care for each person involved in his story.   Contact Dr. Michael Wright: michael@gospelinreallife.org Website: gospelinreallife.org

    Predestined

    Is there any hope for a lost soul? A depraved sinner? The answer? There is no hope for the one who rejects Jesus as Lord and Savior. Jesus said, the one who is not born again is condemn. However, the one who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. The one who is redeemed by God via a saving relationship with Jesus Christ will not only be saved, but that person, male or female, is instantly adopted like a son into the family of God and has become an heir of Christ. Not only does a chosen person become a family member, but he or she is promised to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. Thus, the lost soul, when he or she is transformed by Christ – because of private plan made by God before the foundation of the world – has an eternity of hope. Living in Christ changes everything.   In this episode, Dr. Michael Wright explains what it means to be chosen and predestined by God, how Bible truth concerning these doctrines should stir great personal comfort in the heart of the believer. To know that God made a deeply personal choice to save sinners by grace through faith brings not only comfort, but immense joy.   For more information about or to donate to Gospel in Real Life gospelinreallife.org    To write Dr. Michael Wright directly mwright@gospelinreallife.org
