Grace in Focus

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates continue a series on “Tough Texts,” and will be looking at James 2 and the “Faith without works is dead” phrase. Is there such a thing as dead faith? If there are no works or fruit, is faith faulty? Is this about faith for salvation or about the faith of a believer for living?

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are addressing another “Tough Text” – two chapters in Revelation where overcomers are mentioned. How does a person get to be an overcomer? Why does Jesus keep saying “I know your works?” What victory needs to be won in order to be an overcomer? Please listen today and each weekday, to the Grace in Focus podcast!

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are once again looking at a “Tough Text” in Mark’s Gospel. In chapter 8:34-38, the Savior is clearly talking about some pretty heavy works. So could this possibly be about salvation, or is it not obviously about something else like discipleship or rewards?

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are continuing their exploration of various “Tough Texts” with the Parable of the Good Samaritan.

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are discussing a passage from John’s gospel in their “Tough Texts” series. John 5:28-29 seems to say that doing good (vs. believing) will bring everlasting life. How can this be reconciled to the rest of what John says about being given everlasting life by believing for it?

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates continue a series on “Tough Texts”. Romans 10:9-10 is another one of these. Who is this passage addressed to?

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are addressing another “Tough Text” – a chapter in Luke where Jesus tells three parables about lost items.

Please listen today and each weekday, to the Grace in Focus podcast!

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are once again looking at a “Tough Text” in Luke’s Gospel. In chapter 13:1-5, Jesus talks about some people who died, some because of Pilate’s meanness and some others who died because a tower fell and they happened to be under it. Why did Jesus say this? What should it mean to those who heard it and to us if anything? Please listen and never miss an episode of the Grace in Focus Podcast!

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are continuing their exploration of various “Tough Texts” with the Parable of the Four Soils.

Please listen to this and every episode of the Grace in Focus podcast!
