In this episode of Inside the Scholar's Study, Dr. Gallagher discusses the second century Gospel of Thomas!

Cycling back to positive powerful examples from Scripture, this episode of Wifey Wednesdays focuses on the humility of the unnamed Canaanite woman (also called the Syrophoenician woman) who came to Jesus seeking healing for her daughter. The humble example of this mother is a lesson we can all learn from as we seek the goodness of our Savior.

God is kind, gracious, compassionate, and forgiving but he still holds humans accountable for their sins. We can receive forgiveness, but sometimes earthly consequences remain. We should thank God for his goodness and forgiveness and learn from our mistakes so that we will be wiser and holier in the future.

In this episode of Today With Jesus, we continue our study through Isaiah 53 by exploring “The Blessings of the Suffering Servant.” From these powerful verses, we discover two life-changing blessings that flow from the suffering of Jesus: Redemption and Justification.

Isaiah 53:10–11 reveals the heart of God’s redemptive plan — that through the anguish of His soul, the Servant would bring salvation to many. His suffering was not accidental; it was purposeful, leading to our freedom and righteousness before God.

In this episode of Inside the Scholar's Study, Dr. Gallagher discusses the second-century work, The Gospel of Peter!

This episode of Wifey Wednesdays discusses a woman from the first century city of Thyatira and the power she held over the people in the church there. Using deception, seduction, and flat out lies, this woman was leading people toward sin. This episode looks at the danger of deception and how we can avoid it in our own lives.

In this episode of Today With Jesus, Dan Winkler and Robert Hatfield continue their walk through Isaiah 53 by exploring the often-overlooked yet profoundly significant burial of Jesus. Though brief, Isaiah 53:9 captures the paradox of the Suffering Servant—treated as a criminal, yet buried with the rich; condemned by men, yet vindicated by God.

Jesus’ burial wasn’t just a closing scene—it was a vital part of the gospel story (1 Corinthians 15:3–4). His body was laid in a borrowed tomb, fulfilling prophecy and proving both His death and His sinless character. Even in death, God’s sovereign plan was unfolding perfectly.
