Live the Bible with Wayne Stiles

Sometimes those closest to us don’t understand us. Or worse, they don’t accept us at all.

In this episode of Live the Bible, Jesus models what to do when we’re misunderstood—and even rejected—by the very people we had hoped would accept us. 

Christ’s gracious way of responding with truth shows us how God would have us respond, as well as redirects our hopes to a place that ultimately never fails us.

Ever wonder why God isn’t working in your life as He is in other lives? It’s a common question, but the reality may be far more different than you realize.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re going to be talking about how God uses whom He chooses. Without exception.

In fact, God using you has less to do with your giftedness than it does with your willingness.

Funny how our expectations are seldom met.

Actually, it isn't funny. It can be terribly confusing and discouraging.

In this episode of Live the Bible, Jesus helps us understand what to do when you come to a place when life (or even God) has let you down. When that has happened, one of two things is happening. And the solution? It's good news.

Have you ever been around bad company?

I don’t mean house guests. I’m referring to those people we choose to hang around—and more importantly why we hang around them. Jesus surprised many in His day by spending time with “bad company.” But His reasons were stellar.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we see how Christ’s example gives us the freedom to engage others.

I received an odd prescription from the pharmacy. 

It was funny, in fact. (I share the story in the opening minutes of this week’s podcast.) Truth be told, God gives what seem like odd prescriptions sometimes when His words make no sense in the real world.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’ll discover what happened when Jesus did that one day, and the essential lesson it teaches us about our relationship with Him.

Who’s on first? The question may make us think of a classic comedy routine. But the question goes deeper when we consider the most important priorities we can chase in life.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re going to look at “How to Keep First Things First,” and we have Jesus as our model. His example in Mark chapter 1 gives us at least two practical principles for how to choose among the many good options in life and ministry—and how to focus on the few essentials God wants us individually to do.

Good questions need biblical answers.

Learning about the Bible is great, but there's something about having your specific questions answered that's even better. It allows you to develop a deeper understanding of a topic that may have been confusing.

In this special Q&A episode of Live the Bible, I'm discussing some questions about topics like election and discouragement and more. Who knows, perhaps questions you have we'll discuss as well? 

Thankfully, the Bible has answers.

The Lord’s Supper isn’t fast food.

And yet, how often we hurriedly tag it to the end of the worship service without really
understanding what Communion means. The Lord means for this ordinance to be a very significant experience for you personally.

We'll discover how in today’s episode of Live the Bible.
