Jesus in the mount of transfiguration is a unique event in the Bible, where Jesus shows a glimpse of who He really is and the glory of His complete self beyond His human body. In this episode, Cam Stephens highlights some of the things Jesus revealed to His disciples and us in this particular passage.

Sometimes in life, we go through challenging situations, and it's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. In this message, Mark Dupuis reflects on Mark 9:14-29 and reminds us that our role is always to pray and depend upon God to deliver His perfect answer.

When Jesus calls us to take up our cross and follow Him – or in other words, put away our own desires and worldly priorities for God's Kingdom – it might seem like a burden at first sight. But in this episode, Cam Stephens reminds us that those who fight for self will lose it, and those who lose it will find their true self in Christ!

Who do we say Jesus is? After experiencing much of Christ's ministry, the disciples were confronted with this pivotal question by the Messiah himself. In this message, Cam Stephens reflects on the relevance of one's answer to this question.

The healing of the blind man in Mark 8:22-26 is another time Jesus uses a  peculiar way to perform a miracle, but do the details really matter that much? In this episode, Richard Quiring reminds us that we must focus on the power of Jesus and in applying the Bible to our lives instead of overthinking the fashion Jesus uses to do His will.

In this episode, Cam Stephens recalls another moment when the Pharisees confronted Jesus because they lacked sight of Jesus' signs. And as disciples also missed the point one more time, Jesus showed there is yet hope for those who sincerely seek.

Jesus' feeding the crowd gives us a valuable lesson that hospitality acknowledges other people's needs. In this episode, Cam Stephens reminds us that the Christian faith cares for others, and church community doesn't end when we say amen at the end of a Sunday service.

This short Bible passage recounts Jesus' journey from Tyre to Decapolis, stopping by Sidon, an illogical stop in terms of geography. In this episode, Cam Stephens acknowledges the details of this journey and why Jesus might have chosen to make this apparent detour, as all in Jesus' ministry have a purpose for the sake of His Kingdom.

Jesus' response to the woman from Tyre may seem harsh and excluding at first glance, but when we take a more careful look into it, we notice that Jesus was instead being inclusive and loving. In this episode, Cam Stephens speaks about how this occasion was a significant demonstration of Jesus' good news for both Jews and gentiles.

In this episode, Sean Sagert ponders Jesus' position regarding the void religiosity of the Pharisees that attempted to find reasons to condemn Him, making clear that God looks into the sincerity of one's heart above all else.
