    The Power of God's Word

    What makes the Word of God so powerful?The Bible isn't simply another book written by men. It is the living Word of the living God, and its power reaches far beyond information or instruction.Hebrews 4:12 tells us that “the word of God is alive and powerful,” and I've seen that truth demonstrated again and again as God's Word has brought conviction, renewed minds, strengthened faith, and transformed lives.In this episode of Foundational U, I look at why the Bible is different from every other book and why Christians can confidently build their lives upon Scripture.I also examine what the apostles Peter and Paul taught about the inspiration of Scripture, why God's Word can discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart, and why Scripture gives us both correction when we're wrong and instruction in how to live rightly.I've also seen the transforming power of God's Word firsthand in the lives of people who experienced addiction, mental brokenness, and the devastating effects of human trafficking.Jesus said:“If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”The Word of God doesn't simply tell us about freedom.God's Word brings freedom.📖 **Read the companion article:**https://fdeanhackett.com/why-is-the-word-of-god-so-powerful/🎧 **Listen on Spotify:**https://open.spotify.com/show/3aXQexmHXXGWFkWlPaRlnp🌐 **Visit our website:**https://fdeanhackett.comIf this teaching encouraged you, please **Like**, **Subscribe**, and **Share** this video so more people can discover what the Bible teaches about following Jesus and becoming authentic disciples of Jesus Christ.Every week on **Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett**, we explore biblical truth, Christian discipleship, apologetics, Christian living, theology, and practical Bible teaching to help believers build a strong foundation in God's Word.#FollowingJesus #ChristianDiscipleship #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #JesusChrist

    Can I Trust the Bible

    What are you building your life on?Jesus said that the person who hears His words and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. When the rain came, the floods rose, and the winds blew, that house stood because its foundation was secure.But Jesus also warned that the person who hears His words and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.The question is simple:What is your life built on?In this episode of Foundational U, I look at why the Word of God must be the foundation of the Christian life.The Psalmist says that the person who delights in God's Word and meditates on it day and night will be like a tree planted by rivers of water.God's Word is not simply another source of information or advice. It is the foundation of truth that remains steadfast from generation to generation.In this episode, I discuss:Why Jesus emphasized abiding in His WordWhat it means to build your life on the RockWhy Scripture must shape the Christian's thinking and daily lifeWhy God's Word is settled foreverThe danger of replacing God's Word with human reasoning and philosophyHow God's Word has endured through generations of cultural and political changeWhy Christians need to read, memorize, meditate on, and obey ScriptureWhy the Word of God will ultimately prevailI also share from my own experience ministering in Prague shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall and witnessing firsthand the opportunity to preach the Gospel in a place that had previously been closed to it.The philosophies of men come and go.Governments rise and fall.Cultures change.But the Word of God endures.And that is why I have to ask myself—and why I believe every Christian should ask themselves:What am I building my life on?📖 **Read the companion article:**https://fdeanhackett.com/what-are-you-building-your-life-on/🎧 **Listen on Spotify:**https://open.spotify.com/show/3aXQexmHXXGWFkWlPaRlnp🌐 **Visit our website:**https://fdeanhackett.comIf this teaching encouraged you, please **Like**, **Subscribe**, and **Share** this video so more people can discover what the Bible teaches about following Jesus and becoming authentic disciples of Jesus Christ.Every week on **Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett**, we explore biblical truth, Christian discipleship, apologetics, Christian living, theology, and practical Bible teaching to help believers build a strong foundation in God's Word.#FollowingJesus #ChristianDiscipleship #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #JesusChrist

    What is Truth and Where to Find It

    In a culture where truth is increasingly treated as relative, where do we go to find something we can actually trust?That is the question I want to explore in this episode of Foundational U.The philosophy of postmodernism and deconstruction has challenged the idea of absolute truth, leading many people to believe that what is true for one person may not be true for another. But when we remove absolute truth, we also remove the foundation for determining what is right, wrong, good, and evil.So where do we find truth?Jesus gave us the answer:"You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."I believe truth has its foundation in Jesus Christ and in the Word of God. Scripture doesn't simply give us religious ideas. It gives us the foundation we need to understand who we are, where we came from, why we are here, and where we are going.In this episode, I look at:Why the idea of relative truth is so destructiveWhy every culture needs an objective foundation for truthWhy I believe the Bible provides that foundationWhat Paul meant when he said that all Scripture is given by inspiration of GodWhy God's Word is essential for correction, instruction, and righteous livingWhat Joshua teaches us about building our lives around God's WordWhy Psalm 1 calls us to meditate on Scripture day and nightI also address an important question that we will explore in the next episode:Are the Holy Scriptures reliable, and can we really build our lives upon them?I hope you'll join me as we continue this important conversation about truth, Scripture, and the foundation of our faith.📖 **Read the companion article:**https://fdeanhackett.com/where-do-we-find-truth/🎧 **Listen on Spotify:**https://open.spotify.com/show/3aXQexmHXXGWFkWlPaRlnp🌐 **Visit our website:**https://fdeanhackett.comIf this teaching encouraged you, please **Like**, **Subscribe**, and **Share** this video so more people can discover what the Bible teaches about following Jesus and becoming authentic disciples of Jesus Christ.Every week on **Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett**, we explore biblical truth, Christian discipleship, apologetics, Christian living, theology, and practical Bible teaching to help believers build a strong foundation in God's Word.#FollowingJesus #ChristianDiscipleship #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #JesusChrist

    How to Recover Truth

    What happens when a culture loses its foundations?When truth becomes subjective, biblical convictions are compromised, and foundational principles are removed from society, what happens next?In this episode of Foundational U, Dr. Dean Hackett examines the biblical warning found in Psalm 11:3: "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?"Drawing from 1 Timothy 4 and Jude, Dean explores what Scripture says about deception, departing from the faith, changing biblical doctrine, and the responsibility of Christians to protect and faithfully pass on the truth of God's Word.Dean argues that Christians are not called to allow culture to shape the Church. Instead, disciples of Jesus are called to become "a beacon of light in the darkness" and salt that influences the culture rather than being influenced by it.In this episode, you'll discover:What Psalm 11:3 means when the foundations are destroyedWhy Jude commanded believers to "contend earnestly for the faith"Why Christians have a responsibility to preserve and pass on biblical truthWhy truth cannot simply be reduced to "your truth" and "my truth"How Christians can speak truth with love without compromiseWhy the Church must become a light in the darknessWhy this generation needs believers who are willing to stand firmly on God's WordDean also looks ahead to the next episode, where he will address an important question:How do we discover truth, and where do we find it?If you've ever wondered how Christians should respond when biblical truth is challenged or cultural values conflict with Scripture, this episode will challenge you to examine where your own foundation rests.📖 **Read the companion article:**https://fdeanhackett.com/what-happens-when-a-culture-loses-its-foundations/🎧 **Listen on Spotify:**https://open.spotify.com/show/3aXQexmHXXGWFkWlPaRlnp🌐 **Visit our website:**https://fdeanhackett.comIf this teaching encouraged you, please **Like**, **Subscribe**, and **Share** this video so more people can discover what the Bible teaches about following Jesus and becoming authentic disciples of Jesus Christ.Every week on **Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett**, we explore biblical truth, Christian discipleship, apologetics, Christian living, theology, and practical Bible teaching to help believers build a strong foundation in God's Word.#BiblicalTruth #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #StandFirm #BiblicalWorldview #JesusChrist #GodsWord #Faith #FoundationalU #DeanHackett #Jude #Psalm11 #ChristianEncouragement

    Have We Lost the Truth? The Dangerous Rise of Delusion

    Have we lost our ability to recognize truth?Every day we are surrounded by competing voices, conflicting opinions, and countless claims about what is true. But what happens when a culture no longer loves the truth?In this episode of Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett, we examine a sobering warning from 2 Thessalonians 2 and the prophet Amos. Scripture reveals a progression that begins with rejecting truth and can ultimately lead to deception, delusion, and destruction.In this teaching, you'll discover:What the Bible says about the rise of deceptionWhy truth is the foundation of a healthy societyHow rejecting God's Word opens the door to confusion and delusionWhy Jesus declared, "I am the way, the truth, and the life."How Christians can remain anchored in biblical truth during confusing timesThis is the first message in a series exploring the importance of truth and how believers can faithfully stand on God's Word in a culture that increasingly questions absolute truth.📖 **Read the companion article:**https://fdeanhackett.com/deception-and-delusion/🎧 **Listen on Spotify:**https://open.spotify.com/show/3aXQexmHXXGWFkWlPaRlnp🌐 **Visit our website:**https://fdeanhackett.comIf this teaching encouraged you, please **Like**, **Subscribe**, and **Share** this video so more people can discover what the Bible teaches about following Jesus and becoming authentic disciples of Jesus Christ.Every week on **Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett**, we explore biblical truth, Christian discipleship, apologetics, Christian living, theology, and practical Bible teaching to help believers build a strong foundation in God's Word.#BiblicalTruth #Truth #BibleStudy #ChristianLiving #2Thessalonians #ChristianFaith #FoundationalU #DeanHackett #JesusChrist #BiblicalWorldview

    Why Is Jesus Different from Every Other Religious Leader?

    What makes Jesus different from every other religious leader in history? Many people recognize Jesus as a great teacher, a prophet, or a moral example. But the Bible presents Him as far more than that. In this episode of Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett, we examine four biblical reasons why Jesus Christ stands alone. Discover why Jesus is: The eternal Son of God who existed before His birthBorn of a virgin through the power of the Holy SpiritFully God and fully manThe only person in history who predicted His own resurrection—and fulfilled itFrom Genesis to the Gospels, Scripture consistently reveals Jesus as the unique Son of God who came to redeem humanity. His life, death, and resurrection set Him apart from every other religious figure who has ever lived. If you've ever wondered what makes Christianity different from every other religion, this Bible study will help you understand why Jesus Christ truly is one of a kind. 📖 Read the companion article:https://fdeanhackett.com/why-is-jesus-different/ 🌐 Visit our website:https://fdeanhackett.com 📩 Subscribe to our free newsletter to receive new Bible studies, podcasts, and biblical encouragement delivered directly to your inbox. 👍 If this teaching encouraged you, please Like, Subscribe, and Share it with someone who wants to grow in their understanding of God's Word.

    Who Is Jesus Really? The Truth About Christ's Identity

    Who is Jesus? Was He simply a great teacher, a prophet, or a moral leader—or is He truly the Son of God? In this episode of Foundational U with Dr. Dean Hackett, we explore one of the most important questions ever asked. Your answer to this question affects not only your understanding of Christianity but your eternal destiny.Standing at Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked His disciples, "Who do men say that I am?"
