Someone has said that Sunday morning at 11:00 a.m. is the most segregated hour in America. But Kenny King and William Marshall made national news when they led their respective congregations...Kenny's predominantly black and Marshall's predominantly white...to merge as one congregation back in 2019. Here their inspiring story on this episode.

Psalm 1 contrasts the person who prospers with the person who perishes while Psalm 2 presents the world that is perishing and how to avoid that dreadful destiny.

In this episode, Brett lists 8 facts you need to know to help you read, understand, and be blessed by the book of Psalms, which is the largest book in the Bible.

Tom Wadsworth (Ph.D) joins Brett for the third consecutive Bible Chat. On this episode, they talk about how a proper understanding of the purpose of a Christian assembly or a gathering (what most American Christians call a church service or worship service) should impact our churches.

Dr. Tom Wadsworth joins Brett to talk about his deep dive study into worship in the New Testament. He was stunned to discover that the Greek words that are translated "worship" in the New Testament do not mean what most today's Christians would expect.

When we encounter deep suffering, it's one thing to hear from other humans their opinions about why we are suffering but it's another thing when God shows up and speaks His truth. That's exactly what happened in Job's life. God speaks and Job listens. We would do well to do the same.

Sam Storms of Enjoying God Ministries joins Brett to talk about some contemporary books that have moved the needle (in a positive way) on the life of the Spirit in Western Christianity. The hope is that this episode will motivate the listener to read good books on this important topic.
