Today, Pastor Jack teaches us that at the end of our lives, the final question that determines where we will spend eternity, is did we live life only for ourselves, or did we live our lives for Christ? Once we die, it’s only our faith in Christ, and our repentance from our sins that can lead us towards the comforts of Heaven.

Based on his book, Renaissance, Os Guinness calls the current generation the “crunch generation” because the many challenges facing today’s world are converging quickly and need resolution. He asks Christians to pay “focused attention” to listening to non-believers around them in order to connect. Os advises believers to think deeply for themselves when it comes to loving God with their minds. When witnessing, they must ask questions to those questioning Christianity, rather than making statements, allowing the non-believer to think and come to their own discovery of salvation in Jesus.

Are you struggling to reconcile a good God with a hard life? Hosts Dave and Ann Wilson sit down with Mark Vroegop, author of "Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy" to explore the vital biblical practice of lament. Mark reveals how lament, though prevalent in Scripture (making up one-third of the Psalms!), is often missing from modern Christian life. Drawing from his own profound experiences with loss, he explains how lament provides a faith-filled language for expressing grief, pain, and doubt directly to God, preventing despair and even the deconstruction of faith.

In restaurants, shops, and sadly even churches, we often see preferential treatment given to those who seem wealthy or important. But God’s house should be different! Dr. Robert Jeffress reveals that how we treat those who are less fortunate is a test of genuine faith.
