    Episode 71 - How Do We Know We Trust The LORD - Psalm 31:6-8

    Trusting the LORD is easy to say—but much harder to live out. In this episode, we examine how our hearts often claim to trust God while secretly relying on people, resources, or circumstances for security. Looking at the powerful testimony of King David in Psalms 31:6–8, we see how real trust in the LORD is forged through hardship. David’s life shows that when everything else fails, God’s mercy, wisdom, and faithfulness are more than enough. Join us as we explore what it truly means to place our confidence in the LORD alone as we answer the question, “How Do We Know We Trust The LORD?”   For more information or Bible teaching resources from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com   To support the work of the ministry from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com/donate   You can also listen to Pastor b.Side’s other podcast, which explores the attributes of God through His Old Testament names, called, “Getting To Know God.” Here are the direct links to this podcast:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ec0A2fIRgbSeODzzuCMrf   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-to-know-god/id1839302336   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFdgJTRi_Ryc5OXQ66BjB3HOHE8Uc_f3E   Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cc09ada9-3b6a-4517-bb44-4da9c1cd46e0   iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/293911188 ------------------- Make sure to follow Pastor b.Side to stay updated on new Bible studies, study materials, and encouraging messages:   TikTok: @theofficialpastorbside Facebook: @theofficialpastorbside Instagram: @pastorbside YouTube: @pastorbside

    Episode 70 - Be Of Good Courage - Psalm 31:1-5

    People can be fickle—even believers. One moment we praise God, the next we fail one another. In this episode, we explore how the story of David and the people of Keilah shows the unpredictable nature of humanity and the unchanging faithfulness of God. Through Psalm 31, we understand why David trusted in the LORD alone and how his experience points ahead to Jesus, who was also betrayed by those He came to save. While people often fall short, God remains our true refuge, strength, and the only One worthy of our complete trust.   For more information or Bible teaching resources from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com   To support the work of the ministry from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com/donate   You can also listen to Pastor b.Side’s other podcast, which explores the attributes of God through His Old Testament names, called, “Getting To Know God.” Here are the direct links to this podcast:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ec0A2fIRgbSeODzzuCMrf   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-to-know-god/id1839302336   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFdgJTRi_Ryc5OXQ66BjB3HOHE8Uc_f3E   Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cc09ada9-3b6a-4517-bb44-4da9c1cd46e0   iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/293911188 ------------------- Make sure to follow Pastor b.Side to stay updated on new Bible studies, study materials, and encouraging messages:   TikTok: @theofficialpastorbside Facebook: @theofficialpastorbside Instagram: @pastorbside YouTube: @pastorbside

    Episode 69 - God's Power To Bring Joy - Psalm 30:11-12

    The power of God’s Word is the same power that created the universe—and it’s the same power revealed in the Gospel to transform lives. In this episode, we explore the dramatic testimony of Psalm 30:11–12, where King David describes how God’s mercy completely changed his heart after a season of judgment and repentance. After witnessing the devastating consequences of sin, David experienced the overwhelming grace of God that turned his mourning into dancing and replaced guilt with lasting joy. This conversation highlights the life-changing power of God’s mercy and reminds us that when we truly encounter His grace, the transformation should be undeniable.   For more information or Bible teaching resources from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com   To support the work of the ministry from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com/donate   You can also listen to Pastor b.Side’s other podcast, which explores the attributes of God through His Old Testament names, called, “Getting To Know God.” Here are the direct links to this podcast:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ec0A2fIRgbSeODzzuCMrf   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-to-know-god/id1839302336   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFdgJTRi_Ryc5OXQ66BjB3HOHE8Uc_f3E   Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cc09ada9-3b6a-4517-bb44-4da9c1cd46e0   iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/293911188 ------------------- Make sure to follow Pastor b.Side to stay updated on new Bible studies, study materials, and encouraging messages:   TikTok: @theofficialpastorbside Facebook: @theofficialpastorbside Instagram: @pastorbside YouTube: @pastorbside

    Episode 68 - Handling Prosperity - Psalm 30:6-10

    Seasons of comfort and prosperity can quietly pull our hearts away from God. In this episode, we explore the powerful lesson of Psalm 30, where King David reflects on how success and security led him into dangerous self-confidence. When prosperity turned into pride, it caused devastating consequences but also a deeper understanding of God’s mercy. This conversation looks at how comfort can become a spiritual trap, why God resists pride, and how repentance restores our dependence on Him. Through David’s story, we are reminded that true security isn’t found in our circumstances but in humble reliance on the LORD.

    Episode 67 - From Weeping To Joy - Psalm 30:4-5

    Life is hard for everyone. Because all fall short of God’s glory, we naturally produce corruption, not righteousness—and we all feel the weight of sin’s consequences. But this episode explores the powerful truth that while God’s anger is real, His mercy is greater and eternal for those who receive it by faith. Looking at David’s experience in Psalm 30, we see how God restrained His wrath, preserved His promises, and turned weeping into joy. If not for God’s mercy, we would all be condemned. Instead, through His holiness, faithfulness, and grace, He gives undeserved life, renewed purpose, and eternal hope. This episode is a reminder that though weeping may endure for a night, joy truly comes in the morning.   For more information or Bible teaching resources from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com   To support the work of the ministry from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com/donate   You can also listen to Pastor b.Side’s other podcast, which explores the attributes of God through His Old Testament names, called, “Getting To Know God.” Here are the direct links to this podcast:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ec0A2fIRgbSeODzzuCMrf   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-to-know-god/id1839302336   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFdgJTRi_Ryc5OXQ66BjB3HOHE8Uc_f3E   Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cc09ada9-3b6a-4517-bb44-4da9c1cd46e0   iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/293911188 ------------------- Make sure to follow Pastor b.Side to stay updated on new Bible studies, study materials, and encouraging messages:   TikTok: @theofficialpastorbside Facebook: @theofficialpastorbside Instagram: @pastorbside YouTube: @pastorbside

    Episode 66 - The LORD Our Healer - Psalm 30:1-3

    In this episode, we explore what the Bible really means when it calls God our Healer—Jehovah Rapha. While Scripture records powerful moments of physical healing, the greater miracle has always been spiritual. From Matthew 9, where Jesus forgave a paralytic before restoring his body, to Psalms 30, where David praised God for healing his soul after rebellion and judgment, we see that God’s goodness goes far beyond the physical. True healing is the mercy that forgives sin, restores relationships, and rescues the soul from condemnation. Join us as we examine how God’s greatest work isn’t just to fix our circumstances—but to redeem, restore, and re-equip us for His eternal purposes.

    Episode 65 - Worshiping With Understanding - Psalm 29:3-11

    True worship isn’t just singing—it’s responding to who God actually is. In this episode, we explore Psalm 29 to see how God’s Word reveals His power, His holiness, and why He alone is worthy of praise. When we understand His nature and His purposes, worship becomes surrender—not performance. And amazingly, the same Word that judges and shakes creation is the Word that strengthens and blesses His people with peace. That’s the beauty of holiness—and that’s who God is as our Refuge & Strength.   For more information or Bible teaching resources from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com   To support the work of the ministry from Pastor b.Side, visit www.pastorbside.com/donate   You can also listen to Pastor b.Side’s other podcast, which explores the attributes of God through His Old Testament names, called, “Getting To Know God.” Here are the direct links to this podcast:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ec0A2fIRgbSeODzzuCMrf   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-to-know-god/id1839302336   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFdgJTRi_Ryc5OXQ66BjB3HOHE8Uc_f3E   Amazon: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/cc09ada9-3b6a-4517-bb44-4da9c1cd46e0   iHeart Radio: https://iheart.com/podcast/293911188 ------------------- Make sure to follow Pastor b.Side to stay updated on new Bible studies, study materials, and encouraging messages:   TikTok: @theofficialpastorbside Facebook: @theofficialpastorbside Instagram: @pastorbside YouTube: @pastorbside
