Question 3 of the Gospel Way Catechism: Who does God reveal himself to be? The answer: He is the Lord, the great I AM, one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Spirit. He is the Creator and Ruler of all that is, seen and unseen. In this episode, we explore the identity of the one true God and what it means that he has revealed himself as Father, Son, and Spirit. We discuss how the Christian understanding of God stands in contrast to a world that often views life as meaningless or encourages us to create our own truth and purpose. Because God is our Creator and Ruler, our lives have lasting meaning, purpose, and security in him.

Shaping The Arrow This message is a family dedication built around the truth that raising children requires more than good intentions—it requires daily dependence on the Lord. Using 2 Timothy 1:7 and 1 Thessalonians 5, the message emphasizes that God gives us power for our problems, love for people, and a sound mind for ourselves. Brody and Adri are encouraged to let Waylon see them run to the Lord first, love and forgive one another, deal honestly with their own hearts, and remain connected to a faithful church family that can warn, comfort, support, pray, and walk with them. The central picture is that children are arrows being shaped for God's purposes. Parents, grandparents, and the church all have a part in smoothing rough places, straightening what is bent, and preparing a child to one day go places they themselves may never go. The goal is not merely to raise a successful or well-behaved child, but to prayerfully prepare Waylon to become a "polished shaft" in the Lord's hands—while trusting that only God can bring about the new birth and make Jesus known to him. The message also stresses that bitterness, pride, unforgiveness, and self-centeredness can poison a home, while repentance, patience, truth, reconciliation, gratitude, and prayer create an atmosphere where grace can flourish. Grandparents are reminded to guide with wisdom without controlling, and the church is called to actively undergird the family through spiritual warfare and every season of life. The heart of the dedication is this: we are going to fail at times, but our confidence is not in our perfection—it is in God's faithfulness. As 1 Thessalonians 5:24 says, "Faithful is he that calleth you, w

Reverend James Harden is president and CEO of CompassCare Pregnancy Services in New York. They are saving lives in places like Buffalo, Rochester, Bronx, Brooklyn and Staten Island, New York. He's a dedicated pro-life advocate that became a victim of an ANTIFA off-shoot's firebomb attack in 2022 in wake of the Dobbs decision. Last week, the U.S. State Department and the Treasury Department corroborated key findings that Rev. Harden has advanced since his pro-life center was firebombed in 2022. It was discovered that Jane's Revenge is basically a front-group for an international Marxist insurgency known as ANTIFA. This was learned only because CompassCare had to hire private investigators to do the job that the Biden era FBI and DOJ refused to do. According to Reverend Harden, ANTIFA stands for "anti-facism." However, the definition of facism that they employ is based on a Marxist one. In other words, they're anti-capitalist and anti-free market, but they're also atheistic with the ultimate goal of destroying the current nation-state system. So what does this have to do with abortion? Reverend Harden noted that ANTIFA doesn't actually care about left-wing causes, but they do like to "piggyback" off of them. One of those causes is abortion. They will use this debate to "gin up the grassroots base and then engage in what they call direct action targeting to destabilize society." The result of their efforts has been a "prairie fire of violence against pro-life Christian pregnancy centers and churches."
