  • Episode 62 - Waiting On The LORD - Psalm 27:5-14

    On this episode of Refuge & Strength, we’ll discuss the challenge of understanding and practicing Biblical patience, especially when we’re expecting the LORD to respond to our needs. That’s why we’ve titled this episode “Waiting On The LORD.” That’s not always an easy thing to do. In fact, it’s not always clear how we are supposed to wait on the LORD either. Do we sit around doing nothing, hoping God will fix all our problems with a snap of His fingers, or is there more to it? We’re going to examine an example from Scripture so we can understand how to answer that question and apply it to our lives.

  • Episode 61 - One Desire - Psalm 27:1-4

    Have you ever wondered why, as a Christian, the LORD doesn’t answer some of your prayers regarding certain desires? This episode should help us realign our desires to ensure we’re in sync with the things God longs to respond to. If we have this “one desire,” we’ll likely find that our walk with the LORD and our prayer life become much more fruitful, which is why this episode is called “One Desire.”

  • Episode 60 - The Influence Of God - Psalm 26:4-12

    When God gets a hold of someone’s life through salvation, the scriptures show that there should be a profound impact. What does this impact look like? What truly happens when someone is “born again” through faith in Jesus Christ? This episode explores Psalm 26:4-12 to understand the true effect the Gospel has on the lives of genuine believers. This study acts as a helpful “spiritual check-up” on our faith, which is why I’ve titled this episode “The Influence of God.”

  • Episode 59 - The One True Judge - Psalm 26:1-3

    When people think of God as “the Judge,” it often carries negative connotations, and for understandable reasons. Even the Bible itself states that it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. However, as God’s children, should we be afraid of His authority and judgment? In this episode of Refuge & Strength, we break down Psalm 26:1-3 to see how God’s authority brings peace and comfort to those who believe. Tune in to learn how God shows mercy as “The One True Judge.”

  • Episode 58 - Identifying The Difference Between Want & Need - Psalm 25:16-22

    Do you understand God’s perspective on wants and needs? The Bible instructs God's people to seek Him for what we need. We are called to trust in the Almighty to provide for us and equip us in the calling He has placed on our lives. But do we truly understand what we "need"? How can we pray and seek the LORD correctly if we don’t know how the Bible defines our "needs"? This is a vital concept, clearly explained in Psalm 25:16-22, and it's the reason this episode is titled, “Identifying The Difference Between Want And Need.”

  • Episode 56 - Real Faith - Psalm 25:1-11

    What makes Christian faith unique from all other kinds? This is perhaps one of the most important questions in life, since our understanding of this issue has major implications that decide whether we go to heaven or hell. We don’t want to be confused about this matter! On this episode of Refuge & Strength, we’re exploring Psalm 25:1-11 and examining the testimony of King David to understand God’s perspective on this critical issue, allowing scripture to define the meaning of “Real Faith.”
