Happy Easter! This episode looks at Matthew 28:1-9. In this passage, we find Mary Magdalene and "the other" Mary (Matt 28:1) on their way to the tomb where Jesus had been placed. But while they were coming, a great earthquake shook the ground. An angel descended and rolled the stone away, and the soldiers guarding the tomb fainted, or as the Bible says, they "did shake, and became as dead men." Upon hearing the news of Jesus' resurrection, the women left to tell the disciples what had happened. And when they left, we are told they departed "with fear and great joy." How can these two things co-exist? We talk about that on this episode. We learn from this lesson that if we will press on through fear, joy will win in the end.

This episode looks at Revelation 2:12-18. In this passage, the Lord addressed the church of Pergamos. Pergamos was an idolatrous city and housed a place the Lord referred to as "Satan's Seat." And in the midst of such a wicked city, God still had a church that remained faithful. However, the Lord called them to repentance because of some inconsistencies. This was so that they could serve God more faithfully and as the lesson declares, so they could "Cling to Righteousness." We learn from this lesson that we must cling to righteousness no matter the evil influence around us.

This episode looks at Revelation 2:8-11. In this passage, the Lord addressed the church of Smyrna. The city of Smyrna was hostile toward Christians and the Lord mentions the persecution they have been and will be facing. He then encourages them with two important admonitions, both of which we should take note of: 1. Fear none of those things and 2. Be thou faithful. This podcast discusses these admonitions. We learn from this lesson that we must remain faithful no matter the persecution we face.

This episode looks at Revelation 2:1-7. In this passage, the Lord addressed the church of Ephesus. He commended them for several things including their commitment to working for the Lord, their labor, their patience, and the fact that they had refused to tolerate sin and wickedness. However, one thing He did have "against" them: they had left their first love. This episode looks at what that means and how we can apply this understanding to our lives this week. We learn from this lesson that we must stay focused on our first love, Jesus Christ.

This episode looks at Revelation 1:8-18. In this passage, the apostle John has been exiled to an island called Patmos where he receives a revelation of Jesus Christ (where we get the title of this book of the Bible). However, this Revelation of Jesus Christ was much different than the revelation he received of Jesus when he followed Him decades earlier. He had seen Jesus heal, cast out demons, and even saw evidence of His resurrection. But this encounter would be one that actually left him breathless and speechless. We learn from this lesson that the Revelation of Jesus Christ should produce awe and wonder in us.

This episode looks at I John 3:18-24. In this passage, the apostle John exhorts believers to love God and one another; not only in word but also in deed and in truth. In addition, John explores what it feels like to be burdened by condemnation. However, he offers his readers hope by reminding them that God is greater than their condemnation and that we can have confidence before God. We learn from this lesson that even when our hearts condemn us, we can stand confident in God's love for us.

This episode looks at II Kings 6:8-17 and II Timothy 1:6-7. Second Kings tells us the story of how God kept frustrating the king of Syria because each time the king would plan a move in battle, God would reveal the king's plans to the prophet Elisha. When the king realized what was happening, he sent his army to capture the prophet. While surrounded, Elisha helped his servant to understand God was with them and they did not need to fear. We learn from this lesson that God has given us the power to live without fear.

This episode looks at Ephesians 6:10-13, I Timothy 1:18-19, and I Timothy 6:11-12. The apostle Paul is quick to remind both the Ephesian church and Timothy of the fact that we are at war. No, we do not fight against flesh and blood, but we daily battle against spiritual wickedness all around us. However, we have been made more than conquerors through Jesus Christ and He has provided us the weapons to stand against the enemy. We learn from this lesson that we must remember we are in a battle for our souls, and we must fight the fight of faith every day.

This episode looks at Acts 15:36-40, I Timothy 4:12-14, and II Timothy 4:11. In Acts 15 we find the apostle Paul in a heated disagreement with Barnabas, his fellow church-planter. Their disagreement centers on a young man named John Mark. These two missionaries were unable to come to an agreement and the result was they separated from one another and went in different directions. However, Paul's words in II Timothy 4:11 show that eventually Paul found John Mark to be a valuable asset to him and his ministry and he gave the young man a second chance. We learn from this lesson that we must encourage and believe in young people who desire to do the work of God.

This episode looks at Acts 28:23-31 and I Timothy 4:1-2. In Acts 28 we find the apostle Paul under house arrest and yet even while incarcerated he preaches to all those who will listen. Though some believed and some did not believe, he still "with all confidence" (v 31), shared the truth of God's Word. The warning surrounding his preaching was that some hearts were closed to the message and did not believe. Paul tells Timothy that similar things will happen in the last days. In fact, Paul says, "some shall depart from the faith . . . having their conscience seared with a hot iron." How important it is for us to keep our hearts turned toward the Lord and His Word.  We learn from this lesson that we must stay sensitive to God and His Word.
