  • To the Glory of God

    One of God’s directives to humanity, when Adam was created, was to be fruitful and multiply. This was not relegated to natural procreation, but even more importantly, it pointed towards the value of spiritual procreation. Malachi 2:15 validates this, informing all that God desires humanity to produce the godly seed. This equates to making disciples of men. As Romans 2:4 informs, the “goodness of God” leads men to repentance. God’s witnesses (Acts 1:8), his bride, his church, are dispatched by him to exemplify his goodness to all who will be redeemed by showing how glorious he is. Join in this deep discussion on the value and importance of perpetually giving God the glory.

  • Perfected Patience

    To enter the Kingdom of God, a person must pass through tribulation first. To successfully accommodate this and navigate the wilderness effectively, the individual must uphold a "patient mindset." A patient mindset is emboldened by having "faith" in the Lord; a capacity afforded to all men by Jesus Christ to be used for their salvation's purpose. Join in to listen to this all-important discussion meant to encourage, inform, and inspire all to uphold the proper mindset of "patience" as they press their way into the Kingdom of God.

  • When the Lord Opens a Door

    Although life may appear dark and hopeless at times, the Lord has not left his children alone. In every grim situation they face, through every struggle they happen upon, God has provided a way toward victory. He has designated a door to open, just for his saint to traverse through. It is a door that when ventured beyond its threshold, will bring a saint that much closer to reaching the promises of God. Join in on this episode 20 discussion on the hope of God’s open door afforded unto all who call unto him.

  • The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand

    Both Jesus Christ and John the Baptist began their New Testament ministries by declaring that the “Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand.” This acknowledgment would serve as the theme behind all they taught. The expectation of Heaven’s arrival on Earth is meant to press men not prepared to face God, to become prepared, for the Bible teaches that no man has seen the face of the Lord and lived. With Heaven’s inevitable arrival on Earth, it behooves every man to adhere to the counsel of Jesus Christ with haste, that they may be conditioned to see God and live. Join in on this necessary biblical discussion on the importance of preparing oneself for the eventual arrival of the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.

  • The Joy of the Lord

    John 3:16 reads, "For God so loved the world, that hegave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Based upon this Scripture, everlasting life is only offered unto those who "believe" in the Son, Jesus Christ. To ensure believers remain on the path towards everlasting life, God equips their faith with an unspeakable "joy." A "joy" that intertwines with their faith emboldening believers to press through every obstacle encountered throughout life. The "joy" of the Lord is truly the strength of the believers of God. I invite you to sign in and listen to this informative and encouraging discussion meant to be ablessing to the soul.

  • God's Proving Ground

    There is precedence throughout the Bible showing God’s

    desire that men prove they love him more than these (John 21:15-17). This can only be identified to God after men have been tried and made weak through it. As a result, their steadfastness in faith demonstrates to God that they are not weak, but indeed very strong in their love towards him. Tune in to this discussion on the importance and the reward that comes with patiently enduring faith in God.

  • The Overcomers

    Man is made to glorify God. His very image was meant to make men think of God. His likeness was purposed to do the same. As also with God, man was to govern the dominion delivered to them by God and subdue any rebellion. Sin would eventually disqualify men from their position but through Christ, they are allowed to return. Returning meant imperfection would reign until the time of reformation amid the hostility of satanic forces. Making straight that which was crooked would not be without its challenges, yet those who overcome would gain the right to reclaim what they lost. The overcomers are bidden by God to rise, to stand, to endure, to press on, to regain their glorious identity as God’s image and likeness through Jesus Christ. Join us in this encouraging message of hope and promise as we reach towards the Bible’s extended hand to overcome and live.

  • A Good Conscience

    John 4:23 says that God seeks those who worship him in

    spirit and truth. When looking at the men who died during the flood, God saw their hearts wicked and their conscience not good before him as they perpetually thought evil (Gen. 6:5). An answer of a “good conscience” before God through baptism is the remedy to an evil heart (1 Pet. 3:21) which ensures passing God’s inspection as he looks for “true worshippers” in the Earth. Join this all-important episode 15 discussion on the necessity of securing and maintaining a “good conscience” before God.

  • There is a Knock at the Door

    A distinctive knock is at the door. The visitor on the other

    side of the door is coming to see each of us individually. He has important things to say that will heal the house's owner. He is making the rounds, moving from house to house with the same agenda, to bring healing to the house’s owner. His name is Jesus Christ. Will you open the door to hear what he says, or will you ignore him and hope he leaves? Join us on this episode 14 podcast as we discuss how necessary it is for everyone to answer the door to this majestic visitor, so that they may sit at the communion table and sup with him.

  • The Predestined Ones

    God made humanity intending to have man progress unto

    glorification. This is the Lord’s vision for us. This vision follows a holy trajectory of God foreknowing man, predestinating man, justifying man, and eventually glorifying man. Man must adhere to one major condition to see God’s vision realized: to conform to the image and likeness of the Son of God during predestination. If they are obliged and submit to the Lord’s will, then these are chosen for glorification, but if not, they were simply called to do so. Tune in to this episode 13 podcast as we discuss making our calling and election sure with God.
