Live the Bible with Wayne Stiles

How do you listen to a sermon? Honestly, it isn’t always easy.

There’s nothing more frustrating than listening to somebody talk for 30 to 45 minutes and to walk away with nothing. The truth is, there are some specific tactics you can apply to every sermon you hear that will help you get so much more out of it.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we find those principles from one who called himself the “Preacher” – King Solomon in the book of Ecclesiastes.

There’s a secret to living intentionally every day.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we can learn a valuable lesson from the book of Proverbs from an individual, surprisingly, who never intended to teach us a lesson. But God uses his life for our benefit.

What are you searching for?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we get real practical— on an emotional level— and if we’re honest, that’s where we tend to live most of the time. The world is desperately searching for happiness, and in their search they often miss Joy.

Where do we find it? Psalm 126 tells us.

Sometimes it seems the Lord allows way too much pain in our lives.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we fasten our seatbelts and take a look at the most miserable man in the Bible—Job. If you’ve ever wondered where God is in your struggles, I think you’ll find the verses of Job, frankly, as encouraging as they are surprising!

How do you find the courage to face a fearful situation?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the life of one of the most courageous women in the Bible—Esther. Don’t think that just because she was a queen that she didn’t struggle just like us. She did!

Esther shows us the confidence we can have in God’s sovereignty becomes the reason for our courage to do what’s right.

How do we keep from going back to the old life?

How do we keep the change we want in our lives? Nehemiah shows us.

How well do you guard your source of truth?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at God’s "Water Gate” in Jerusalem. That’s not a political term, but a gate that walled off and protected the water source. At this gate, Ezra gave a challenging message to God’s people that we need to hear as well. We also need to guard our time with the source of our sustenance—God’s Word.

What do you do when trusting God is all you have?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at a king we don’t often hear much about. Asa had faith, but he struggled to put that faith into his life. Asa is a great reminder that when God shows up in one area of our lives, it’s just a sampler of the fact that he can show up in every area. Our Christian life is where we walk by faith and not by sight. This podcast will show us how.

Have you ever felt like a failure? You are not alone!

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the great King David, a man after God’s own heart—and a man who failed. How in the world did he retain his position after such awful failure? It’s an important question, because the answer tells us how we maintain our close walk with the Lord after we fail in our Christian lives.

Sometimes it feels like God has us fenced in. He surrounds us with rules or hard circumstances, and the only way to move forward, it seems, is to hop the fence.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the lives of Manasseh and Josiah. They remind us that the Bible isn’t a museum piece or decoration for our home coffee tables. God gave us his Word and preserved it throughout the centuries so that His truth can help our lives. This episode tells us how.
