This week on Black, White, and the Red Letters, Jay and Ed step into the opening rounds of Jesus’ upside-down kingdom manifesto—Matthew 5:1–5. We unpack the first three Beatitudes and why they’re not soft, sentimental sayings but spiritual gut-checks: poor in spirit, those who mourn, and the meek. Jesus starts His sermon by blessing the people who know they’re bankrupt without God, who feel the weight of a broken world, and who lay down the need to dominate. It’s a call to drop the mask, quit pretending you’re fine, and let the King rebuild you from the inside out.

This week on Black, White & the Red Letters, Jay & Ed talk through Jesus’ “tiny seed, unstoppable Kingdom” sermon—how the smallest acts of faith become a holy takeover. 🌱 From overlooked prayers to inconvenient kindness, mustard-seed moves don’t ask permission; they spread. Get practical, get real, and start planting where you stand. 🔥

This week on Black, White & the Red Letters, Jay & Ed talk through what “Lamb of God” really meant — not cute, not churchy, but bloody, costly, and necessary. John the Baptist wasn’t calling Jesus adorable; he was calling Him the sacrifice. 🩸
We walk from the altar to the Cross, and then into right now: your habits, your grudges, your private life. If Jesus went willingly, then holiness isn’t a church word, it’s a battle plan. This episode is about letting the Lamb shape the way we actually live. ✝️

☕ You’ve seen Jeremiah 29:11 on mugs and bumper stickers—but this verse wasn’t written for coffee breaks. It was sent to God’s people in exile 🪓, stuck in Babylon and desperate for a way out. Jay and Ed dig past the clichés 📖 and show how God’s promise of shalom isn’t about easy escapes, but real hope in the middle of chaos 🔥⚡. #HopeInTheMess #FutureAndHope #BlackWhiteRedLetters

“Be holy, for I am holy.” Sounds impossible, right? 😳 In this raw and honest episode of Black, White, and the Red Letters, Ed shares a deeply personal story about the day anger won 💢—and how God’s grace met him there 🙏. From broken family ties 💔 to a keyboard full of regret, this conversation reminds us that holiness isn’t about perfection; it’s about transformation 🔥. God calls us to lay down the old self and let Him rebuild us from the inside out ❤️‍🔥. Real faith. Real failure. Real change.  #BeHoly #GraceInTheMess #BlackWhiteAndTheRedLetters

 In today's episode, Jay & Ed discuss what God does with our feelings of inadequacy. In Exodus 4, Moses said, “I can’t.” God said, “Watch Me.” 💥 You don’t need polished words or perfect strength—you just need to lean on the One who provides. Your weakness is the very place His power shows off.  #NoExcuses #GodProvides #StrengthInWeakness

A battle-hardened centurion had seen crucifixions by the hundreds—😱 screams, agony, despair. But this one was different. Instead of curses, Jesus spoke forgiveness 🙏. Instead of fear, He gave hope ✨. Darkness fell, the earth shook 🌍, the curtain tore—and the soldier could only whisper through tears: “Truly this was the Son of God.” The same question still confronts us today—what will you do with Him?  #SonOfGod #CrossChangesEverything #EyewitnessFaith

When Jesus forgave the sins of the paralytic in Capernaum, He wasn’t just healing—He was making a bold claim to be God. The religious leaders lost their minds, but for those who believe, His words still carry the same power today: “Your sins are forgiven.”  #AuthorityOfJesus #ForgivenAndFree #FaithOverFear

Genesis 1:26–27 isn’t just ancient poetry—it’s a reality check. You were handcrafted by God, stamped with His image, and given the power to think, choose, and love. That means your value isn’t random, your dignity isn’t negotiable, and your destiny isn’t defined by culture. Creeping things creep—but you were created to carry His likeness and reflect His love.

James doesn’t play around—he calls us out on our reactions, our mouths, and our tempers. Listening before speaking, and refusing to blow up, aren’t just good manners—they’re proof that your faith is alive and real. Words, works, and reactions all reveal what’s really going on in your walk with Jesus.
