Cultivating Growth

Our good friend, and fellow preacher, from Louisville, Scott Beyer, joins us this week to wrap up our conversation about the 7 letters found in Revelation 2-3. We talk about why these letters are recorded for us, what we can learn about God through reading them and touch on some of our main takeaways from this study.

The last three of these seven letters, found in Revelation 3, are written to churches that are all in very different places. Sardis might have looked the part from an outsider's perspective but it's reality was very different, Philadelphia may not have been the most impressive looking church but was persevering in an admirable way, and Laodicea was a church that needed to rediscover its passion and zeal!

The next two letters, both found in Revelation 2, speak to churches that are both being influenced by false teaching. And both instances encourage us to look back to two Old Testament figures...Balaam and Jezebel.

This week we dive into the first two of the 7 letters recorded for us in Revelation 2-3. Ephesus is a church we know a lot about from Paul's journeys and the letter bearing their name. Smyrna, however, is not as well known. Both churches have some good things going for them and both are facing some challenging circumstances. Sound familiar?

In Nehemiah chapter 1, after receiving news that the people back in Jerusalem aren't doing well, Nehemiah prays. He confesses sin, showcases repentance and asks God for mercy. It is a wonderful prayer with lots to learn.

You simply can't do a study on Old Testament prayers without spending some time with Hezekiah. Not only was he was an important king in the nation of Judah but he left behind two great examples of what it means to seek God's guidance and blessings first.

In this episode we look at two prayers by Hannah; the first in 1 Samuel 1 and the second in 1 Samuel 2. Both of these prayers give us insight into the faith of Hannah and provide us some strong application that we need to consider making to our prayer lives today.

This week we discuss the last recorded conversation that we have between Peter and Jesus. A conversation that not only speaks to the restored relationship between the two of them but also Jesus' intent on preparing Peter for what's next.
