First Presbyterian Church of Baton Rouge episodes

  • What is Faith?
    Faith is simply the rope that ties us to Christ. But if that rope is not anchored on Jesus, it’s worthless. If our confidence is in our ability to make sense of everything, we will be disappointed. And if our confidence is in our own ability to have faith, we don’t have much to hold onto. Our confidence must be in Jesus.

  • Faith of Our Fathers
    Fully entrusting ourselves to the one in whom we have placed our trust, is perhaps the most difficult part of our Christian faith. It means giving him who we are. It means not withholding but deferring to him as the Lord of everything in our lives. It can be a scary thing.

  • The New and Living Way

    Faced with such a stark, eternal choice, every believer would say, “I pick Jesus!” So why do we live every day as if we could set aside the sacrifice Jesus made and build our own kingdom? Why do we get bored with the idea of his blood making us holy and stop pursuing him?

    Hebrews’ encouragement to draw near with confidence is not given as a marketing tool in hopes that I might decide to buy the Jesus product this week. It’s not a spiritual option presented as an alternative should I get tired of myself. It’s a command. Scripture’s says, “Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I say rejoice.” That’s not a suggestion. It’s a directive. Not only your immediate fulfillment depends on making full use of your first class ticket to the Father. The eternal evaluation of your life is based on your living from the Jesus who saved you by his blood.
