Grace Christian-Pulpit Podcast

In this episode, we explore the often-overlooked story of Jethro, Moses' father-in-law and a man who had no business giving advice to the great leader of Israel. Except he did. And Moses took it. We talk about the pride that keeps us burning out alone, the humility that can receive wisdom from unexpected sources, and why Moses listening to Jethro may have saved an entire nation from collapse.

This episode dives into the story of Abigail, a woman caught in a crisis she didn't create but refused to ignore. We unpack how she moved quickly and wisely when disaster was coming, how she spoke truth to power without losing her humility, and what her story means for anyone living with the fallout of someone else's poor decisions. If you're in the middle of a mess you didn't make, this one is for you.

In this episode, we open our new series Their Story, Our Lesson with the story of Manasseh: a king whose rebellion ran deeper than almost anyone in Scripture. We walk through his descent into wickedness, the mercy hidden in his affliction, and the stunning reality of his restoration. If you or someone you love seems too far gone, this episode is for you.

Loving one doesn't mean ignoring the rest it means your "one" becomes someone who reaches their "one."
Andrew finds Peter. Philip finds Nathanael. One at a time multiplies. The church doesn't grow by programs; it
grows by people who love people. This closing week connects personal relationship to the Great Commission.

Loving people one at a time is rarely convenient. Jesus modeled extravagant, inconvenient love the friends
who tore open a roof, the woman who poured out her most expensive possession. Going the extra mile means
putting one person's need above your own comfort, schedule, and reputation.

Divine appointments don't look like appointments they look like interruptions. God orchestrates collisions
between lives. The Good Samaritan didn't plan his detour; Peter and John weren't expecting a healing on the
temple steps. The question is whether we're paying attention when our path crosses someone else's.

You can't reach who you won't approach. Jesus intentionally moved toward the people others avoided into
Samaria, across the lake to the demoniac, up into Zacchaeus's tree. Reaching one at a time requires both
physical and relational proximity. To do what God wants requires going where God sends.

You can't give what you don't have. Before we go out to reach others, we must first be rooted deeply in Christ.
The early church in Acts 2 shows us the model devoted together first, then sent outward. Outreach flows from
overflow. We go through others only after we've received deeply in Him.

Jesus consistently zoomed in on the individuals that crowds overlooked: the tax collectors, the sinners, the lost. He sees, saves, and celebrates one at a time. Using all three parables in Luke 15, this week casts the vision for the entire series: who is the "one" God is calling you to focus on? How impractical and reckless might we become, for one?
