Question of the Day: By what will we be judged?

How to Become a Christian

Episode 214: The Bible, which is God’s Word, tells us plainly how to enter a saved relationship with Christ and so become a Christian. But the journey only begins with faith and baptism. Tune in as I explore what it truly means to become a Christian.

Beatitudes #9 – Conclusion

Episode 212: All good things must come to an end. This is true to the introduction to the greatest sermon ever preached by the greatest Preacher who ever lived. Tune in as I wrap-up and review the beatitudes and their significance for us and how we view Jesus.

Question of the Day: Does one need to be baptized to go to heaven?

Beatitudes #7 – Blessed are the Benevolent

Episode 210: Peace is something people desire. We hate tension and hostility and try to avoid at all costs. So when Jesus says Blessed are the peacemakers, what exactly is He calling to? Tune in as I breakdown this powerful beatitude.

Question of the Day: Do you think our country is doomed because of the way things are going in our government?

What the Bible Says to LGBT

Episode 206: In the previous episode, I broke down God’s settled disposition toward LGBT behavior – He is opposed to it. Why? It is sin. So…seeing what God says about LGBT, what does God say to those who engage in LGBT behavior? Tune in as I examine this vital question.

Question of the Day: Did Jesus really create everything? Is it true that Jesus created everything?

Beatitudes #1 – Blessed are the Beggarly

Episode 200: We approach the mount and begin our climb – Blessed are the poor in the Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Tune in as I break this verse down and explain what this means for the Christian today.

Questions of the Day:

Killing Jesus

Episode 194: Killing Jesus by Bill O’Reilly is currently the best-selling book in the world.
