Season 2 Episode 80

There are certain men (and women) who are going to teach lies and present them as truth. We must keep our eyes open and be ready to arm ourselves with truth. Jude warns us that we may be mocked for our faith, but to stand firm. 

Season 2 Episode 79

Certain men (or women) are going to try and lead you astray. Why? The enemy- Satan- is alive and well. He will convince you that it's all about you. Do what you want, Do what feels good. Choose your own truth. Jude warns us against this behavior.

Season 2 Episode 78

The other brother of Jesus. And he's here with a powerful message- one that's hard to deliver, and possibly harder still to hear. Beware- there are false teachers who have wormed their way into our churches. 

Season 2 Episode 77

We did it! James concludes his letter reminding his readers of the power of prayer. There is power in the name of Jesus and our prayers are a direct line to the Almighty. Pray for yourself, pray for others. Pray to stop the rain , and then start it again (see Elijah). Never stop praying.

Season 2 Episode 76

A lesson in patience and endurance or a lesson in farming? Maybe both. James uses the analogy of farming and growing crops to believers waiting for the return of Jesus. There's not a lot we can do to speed things up. We must wait, not complaining. Everyone's got problems. Everyone suffers.  How you deal with it, in the waiting, is up to you.

Season 2 Episode 75

What makes you rich? Is it all monetary? And if you are rich, what are your odds of getting into the kingdom of heaven? Does God actually dislike rich people? 

Season 2 Episode 74

It's very easy to speak evil over others, while assuming the rules don't apply to you. Only God can be the judge of others. Not you. Nothing is certain in life. It would be a mistake to make plans for your life without first asking God's will. 

Season 2 Episode 73

Submit. Submit? Seriously?? But I'VE got this. I can do this. Don't submit to anything of this world. Submit ONLY to God. Only by doing so can you humble yourselves for the Lord. In return He will lavish you with His grace.

Season 2 Episode 72

An enemy of God? Whoa! That seems extreme. But I love so much about the world. James is making a distinction between loving things that are temporary, and loving God first and foremost. 

Season 2 Episode 71

Have you ever met a "one upper"? They always do things better; they're smarter, funnier, just all around more awesome than you. How do you feel about them? Probably not too good. What about you? Are you jealous of people who have more than you? Do you have bitter feelings in your heart? James would tell you to call upon the peace and wisdom of God. Those negative feelings aren't from God. We can do better.
