Surrender seems easy, until it costs you something.

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we continue our journey through the life of Joseph by exploring how to let go of what you think you need in order to trust God with what He knows you need.

If you’ve ever been caught off guard by circumstances that challenge your faith, this episode will help you understand what God may be doing beneath the surface.

What if the season that feels like loss is actually God’s process of preparation?

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we continue our series on waiting on God by following Joseph into Egypt—a place of uncertainty, testing, and transformation.

Joseph had already received a promise from God. But before that promise could be fulfilled, his character had to be refined.

If you’re in a season where it feels like more is being taken away than given…where life feels like a series of setbacks rather than steps forward…this message will be a helpful reframe.

What may look like an unjust setback could actually be part of God’s plan for your progress. The real question is: what is God producing in you right now?

What do you do when the life God promised looks nothing like the life you’re living?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we begin a special five-part series on waiting on God through the life of Joseph. At just 17 years old, Joseph received a dream from God about his future—only to be betrayed by his own family and sold into slavery shortly after.

It raises a question many of us quietly wrestle with: Did God forget His promise? If not, then what's going on?

If you’ve ever felt stuck between what God said and what you’re experiencing, between hope and disappointment, this episode will meet you right there.

The Bible is the best-selling book in history. 

Sounds like a good thing—and it is—but God’s goal isn’t for us to just have a stack of Bibles on the shelf. He wants us to, well, LIVE the Bible!

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re turning to the book of James to find out exactly what that means and how to do it. (And why we must.)

It’s a simple process anyone can follow—and you can start today.

How can we be sure our salvation is secure? 

And if our salvation IS secure no matter what we do, does it matter what we do? 

When we read the book of Hebrews, sometimes it seems the verses say both yes and no!

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re tackling those confusing passages in Hebrews head on. With a little context, we’ll see that Hebrews holds the answers, not the problems.

Who in your life has hurt you so badly that a part of you died? 

I’m talking about that person who spoke too much or showed up too little, neglected too much or lashed out too often—someone who took advantage of you, or betrayed you, or abused you.

How do you forgive that person?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look in the book of Philemon to learn how to truly let go and move on when forgiveness seems impossible. I urge you to listen now.
