Last Week After Pentecost

💬 Episode Description:

Today’s readings invite us to see both God’s fierce justice and His transforming love—calling us to live with hearts fully His.

📖 Nahum 1:1–13 reveals God as a refuge for the oppressed and a avenger against evil. The Lord is slow to anger, rich in justice, and powerful to save. What terrifies His enemies becomes comfort to His people.“The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble.” (Nahum 1:7)

📖 1 Peter 1:13–25 calls us to respond to that saving love by living holy, set-apart lives. We do not belong to the empty lifestyles around us—we’ve been purchased at the price of Christ’s blood. We are redeemed to reflect His holiness.

📖 In Matthew 19:13–22, Jesus welcomes children and exposes a heart that loves its own treasures more than God. The rich young ruler wanted eternal life without surrender. Jesus invites us to a better life—one that releases idols to embrace Him fully.

🔥 Together, these passages ask us a question: Is Jesus truly our treasure, our security, and our Lord? Holiness flows from love, and love demands surrender.🔖

Last Week After Pentecost

November 24, 2025

💬 Episode Description: Today’s readings lift our eyes to both the gravity and the glory of God’s unfolding story—one that calls us to holiness, hope, and faithfulness.

📖 Joel 3:1–17 paints a sobering picture of the Day of the Lord. Nations are gathered for judgment, but for God’s people, it is a day of refuge and protection. In a world filled with conflict and confusion, Joel reminds us that God still rules history—and He fights for His own.

📖 In 1 Peter 1:1–12, Peter encourages scattered believers with the promise of a “living hope.” Our salvation is secure, our inheritance is unfading, and even our trials are refining us into something stronger and more beautiful. Angels long to look into this grace we’ve received.

📖 And in Matthew 19:1–12, Jesus teaches on marriage, commitment, and the seriousness of covenant. His words call us away from convenience and toward a love shaped by God’s design and God’s endurance.🔥 Together, these passages remind us: God is bringing history to a meaningful end, and He invites us to live with holiness, hope, and courage in the present.

Sometimes, the strongest witness is quiet confidence in God’s power.📖 1 Corinthians 9:1–15 reveals Paul’s heart for ministry — a servant willing to give up his rights for the sake of the gospel. His example calls us to use our freedom not for self, but for service, showing that true strength is found in surrender.📖 Matthew 7:22–29 concludes Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount with a sobering call to authenticity. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven…” Jesus contrasts those who merely hear His words with those who live them — the wise builders who lay their foundation on the rock.Together, these passages remind us that real faith is tested in the storms, proven in our priorities, and revealed in obedience. The storms will come — but those who trust in the Lord will stand firm.
