    Love Keeps No Record of Wrong

    This week's episode is "Love Keeps No Record of Wrong," we'll study six simple words from 1 Corinthians 13:5. Highlighting the Greek term "agape," this conversation challenges believers to view love as a deliberate choice rather than mere emotion, urging them to desire the good of others without keeping a ledger of past wrongs. By understanding love as a divine, unconditional act, we are encouraged to transcend their instincts and embrace the transformative power of God’s love.

    Sometimes It Takes a Woman To Win It - Esther

    To close our series "Sometimes It Takes A Woman To Win It" we explore the inspiring story of Esther, a remarkable woman whose courage and determination saved her people during a time of great peril. Through her example, we are reminded that no one is "just-a" anything in the eyes of God; we are all fearfully and wonderfully made, with unique purposes and potentials. Just as Esther's bravery transformed her circumstances, we too can trust that God works through all things and all people. Join us as we delve into how God might be preparing you for such a time as this, turning life's challenges into opportunities for growth and impact.

    Why Do We Profess Ourselves As Christians But Then Do Not Follow Jesus' Teachings?

    It has been said that "life comes at you fast." A quick google of "songs turning 30 years old" will make that notion real pretty quick. So many things we think will be around forever don't last. In this episode, we explore the theme of impermanence through the lens of Jesus' teachings in Luke 6:46-49. The message emphasizes the importance of building a life on the solid foundation of Jesus’ words, rather than temporary or fleeting things. By trusting in Jesus, dedicating our time and energy to his teachings, and treating others with love and kindness, we can find true and lasting stability.

    Why Did Jesus Get Baptized?

    We deep into Jesus' baptism and the mystery of the Trinity. Discover how Jesus’ baptism not only revealed the divine Trinity but also modeled a life of relational love and surrender. His baptism wasn’t only a historic event but an invitation for us today. So, let triune God redefine how we live, move, and connect with the world around us.
