  • What About: Tithing, Part 1 | Ep 154

    The subject of Tithing can be confusing and divisive.  What does the Lord expect of us, His people, regarding tithes?  The answer may be more nuanced than you think. In today's episode, we look at tithing in the Old Testament.   

    “Every tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land or of the fruit of the trees, is the Lord's; it is holy to the Lord. . . . And every tithe of herds and flocks, every tenth animal of all that pass under the herdsman's staff, shall be holy to the Lord."  - Leviticus 27:30-32

  • Not For Your Sake | Ep 151

    Why does the Lord do His good work in us? The answer may be surprising, especially for a sentimental and hedonistic generation. 

    “Therefore say to the house of Israel, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, declares the Sovereign LORD, when I show myself holy through you before their eyes.vereign LORD, when I show myself holy through you before their eyes. -- Ezekiel chapter 36

  • When God is Silent | Ep 149

    What about times when we feel that God is silent? How can followers of Jesus go through such times well? What is the path of faith when the Lord seems far off?

    “Look at the nations and watch–

    and be utterly amazed.
    For I am going to do something in your days
    that you would not believe,
    even if you were told."

    -- Habakkuk chapter 1

  • What Does Peter Say? | Ep 145

    How do we engage in hard conversations according to God's will? What are guidelines for talking with people who disagree with us? Peter has something to say about that.

    . . . all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. For,


    “Whoever would love life
    and see good days
    must keep his tongue from evil
    and his lips from deceitful speech.
    He must turn from evil and do good;
    he must seek peace and pursue it.
    For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
    but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
