Incline Your Ear invites us to examine where our attention truly rests and how our “secret life” with Jesus shapes everything else. Drawing from Isaiah 55, this episode explores God’s repeated invitation to come—to drink, eat, and delight freely in what only He can give, without money and without price. We reflect on Jesus’ hidden years of obedience, the connection between hearing and obeying, and how Scripture reveals that spiritual nourishment is purchased not with effort, but with attention. Through stories from Moses, Abraham, and the words of Jesus Himself, we’re reminded that life flows from turning aside to listen. The call is simple but costly: give God your attention, receive His steadfast love, and allow His Word to become your daily sustenance.

Speaker: Robert Lee

This message explores what life looks like when obedience flows not from obligation, but from gratitude. Grounded in the gospel, this episode reflects on how we have died to the law and now belong to Christ—raised to bear fruit for God. We consider the “law of Christ” as a call to love in action, bearing one another’s burdens and laying down our lives in tangible ways. Scripture challenges us to live simply and wisely, refusing the slavery of debt, to work diligently with faith and integrity, and to trust that God blesses abundance where faithfulness is found. The invitation is clear: let the generosity we’ve received in Jesus shape how we live, work, and give for the sake of others.

In this episode, we explore one of the most misunderstood moments in the life of Jesus—His hunger, the cursing of the fig tree, and the cleansing of the temple. Far from being an outburst of frustration, this passage reveals the deep desires of Jesus’ heart. God is not after religious performance or well-managed behavior; He longs for a people who love Him sincerely—a family who lives from intimate friendship with Him.

Jesus approaches a fig tree full of leaves but barren of fruit, exposing the danger of outward appearance without inward devotion. Like a marriage that looks healthy from a distance but lacks private intimacy, spiritual form without love is ultimately fruitless. In the same way, Jesus confronts a temple system that had drifted from its purpose—not rebellious, but misaligned—calling His house back to what it was always meant to be: a house of prayer for all nations.

This episode reframes discipline not as punishment, but as loving preparation. God corrects those He loves so that they may share in His holiness and bear lasting fruit. Church, prayer, and discipleship are not primarily about meeting our needs, but about fulfilling God’s desires—hosting His presence and ministering to His heart.

We close with a personal invitation: to put Jesus first, to receive His love before trying to respond to it, to repent where He lovingly disciplines, and to forgive freely as those who are deeply loved. Jesus is hungry—not for sacrifice, but for a people who know who they are and choose to love Him in spirit and in truth.

What does it really mean to live with joy—unshakeable joy—in a world of suffering, disappointment, and uncertainty?

In this episode, we trace the full gospel story to rediscover where true joy comes from. Not joy rooted in emotions or circumstances, but joy anchored in what Jesus has done and where He is now. From Christ’s incarnation to His return, we behold the intentional love of God at every stage: Jesus became incarnate to secure an everlasting covenant, was crucified to tear the veil and give us intimate access to the Father, buried to free us from our old nature, risen so we could be reborn as children of God, ascended to dwell within us by His Spirit, seated to restore our authority to reign with Him, and returning to unite us with Himself forever.

As we behold Jesus and the why behind His work, joy is released—not manufactured. Scripture shows us that joy is not passive or circumstantial, but a willful response to grace, reconciliation, and hope. Even suffering becomes a place where joy can grow as endurance produces character and character produces hope.

This episode invites you to lift your eyes again to the good news of great joy—the joy of salvation, sustained by the Spirit within you, and rooted in the unchanging work of Christ.

In this Advent episode, we explore the deep biblical meaning of peace—not merely the absence of conflict or a quiet holiday evening, but shalom: wholeness, security, restoration, and life as God intended it. Starting with reflections on the familiar lyric "sleep in heavenly peace", we step back through the story of Scripture—from Eden’s brokenness to exile in Babylon—to uncover Israel’s longing for restoration and their promise of a Covenant of Peace.

Drawing from Ezekiel 36–37, we walk through the dramatic vision of dry bones brought to life, Israel’s renewal, and God's promise of a coming Shepherd-King from the line of David—the Messiah who would dwell with His people forever. We then connect Ezekiel’s prophecy to Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who through His blood established an everlasting covenant and invites us not only to experience peace with God, but to extend peace to others.

This episode invites listeners to encounter Christ’s presence, receive His wholeness, and become peacemakers in their families, communities, and holiday gatherings. Peace isn’t passive—it's a way of life shaped by forgiveness, reconciliation, blessing, and the Spirit’s presence among us.

A perfect meditation for Advent: encounter peace, carry peace, and live the Covenant of Peace.

Advent is a season of waiting—of anticipating the arrival of Jesus. Week one centers on Hope: not wishful thinking, but confident expectation in God’s promises.

Jesus is our Hope.
Scripture shows that every Old Testament prophecy about the Messiah is fulfilled in Him—from His birth to His suffering to His resurrection. Because He fulfilled every promise of His first coming, we can trust every promise of His return.

Hope isn’t something we create; it’s something the Holy Spirit fills us with as we believe.
Romans 15:13 says that as we trust God, He fills us with joy, peace, and overflowing hope.

We live in this tension Paul describes in Romans 8—creation groaning, our bodies longing for redemption, and yet waiting with confidence.

So during Advent, we remember:
Jesus came. Jesus is with us. Jesus is coming again.
Our response is simple: Believe. Be filled. And hope in Him.

In this episode, we explore how thanksgiving is not just a spiritual discipline—it’s a doorway into the presence of God and a catalyst for breakthrough.

Starting with Paul’s warning in Romans 1, we look at how a lack of honor and gratitude leads to darkened thinking. Then, through the Psalms, we rediscover the Kingdom principle that thanksgiving is how we enter and remain in God’s presence. From David appointing Levites to minister through thanksgiving, to the heavenly creatures in Revelation giving unending thanks before the throne, Scripture reveals a pattern: God delights in grateful hearts because gratitude positions us to receive His life.

We unpack why giving thanks is actually a way of receiving from the Lord—how it shifts our perspective, opens our spiritual ears, and aligns us with Heaven. And through the story of Paul and Silas in prison, we see that thanksgiving is not passive—it’s a weapon, shaking foundations and releasing freedom not only for us, but for those around us.

Finally, we consider the regional impact of gratitude: what if thanksgiving isn’t just personal devotion, but a Kingdom strategy for our city? Psalm 132 gives us a picture of what God does in a place marked by His presence—provision, joy, salvation, blessing, and shining kingship.

If you’re hungry to understand why thanksgiving matters and how it transforms atmospheres, this episode will stir your heart to practice gratitude in a whole new way.

This week’s episode is all about the battleground between your ears. Scripture says our thoughts can either anchor us in truth or pull us into chaos — and God cares deeply about which direction they go.

We walk through a powerful journey of passages—from “taking every thought captive” in 2 Corinthians, to “be transformed by the renewing of your mind” in Romans, to Paul’s challenge in Colossians to “set your mind on things above.”

We unpack why what you agree with internally matters so much:

• What you accept, you cultivate.

• What you cultivate, you empower.

• And what you empower ultimately bears fruit — for good or for destruction.

You’ll hear how God searches and heals the mind, how the Spirit gives understanding the natural mind can’t grasp, and why double-mindedness keeps us unstable and spiritually foggy.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in old thought patterns, weighed down by anxiety, or unsure how to discern God’s voice, this episode will help you step into the clarity, peace, and strength that come from living with the mind of Christ.
