Some say Biblical faith is too impersonal... it is trying to believe in a distant force that you can't see or hear or touch. It’s all high ceilings, stained glass, wood pews, and cold facts.

Some say Biblical faith is too impractical... it’s some kind of crazy leap into the dark. It doesn't speak to life where the rubber meets the road. It’s all pie in the sky in the sweet bye and bye.

Some say Biblical faith is too limiting...  its teachings are too harsh and rigorous. The lifestyle promoted by the Bible takes all the fun out of life. It's all discipline and no delight.

In Psalm 16, David gives us an entirely different picture of Biblical faith. I urge you to check it out!

David faced misunderstanding, jealousy, and shattered hopes. David faced rebellion, heartache, and broken dreams. David faced cruelty, injustice and physical attacks. In a time like this, David took pen in hand and composed Psalm 13.

This Psalm gives us insight and help for how to respond in times of trial and days of discouragement. If you are anything like me, you will see yourself in this psalm and you will discover several very practical steps you can take to get through trials victoriously.

Psalm 8 is a fabulous Psalm that highlights the majesty and glory of God. It reminds us that God is the Creator of the universe. It also reveals the amazing truth that this God who created the universe cares about you and me. The Psalmist challenges us to consider the greatness and grace of our Lord. If you are anything like me, you will find yourself singing and praising God before we finish this episode of Wisdom from Above.

We all have times when we feel like the life God wants us to have is being ripped away from us by unkind people or unfortunate circumstances. Our world is being manipulated and deceived and pushed to the brink. Diseases are being manufactured in labs. Corruption is being covered up. Speech is being censored. Science is being perverted. Pornography is being pushed on our children. Sexual immorality is being promoted in our schools. Marriage is being undermined. Christianity is being mocked. How should we respond? David reveals the answer in Psalm 5. Join us as we explore Psalm 5 in this episode of Wisdom from Above.

Many have no rest in the midst of troubles. Many have no refuge in the midst of troubles. Many have no joy in the midst of troubles. In Psalm 4, David reveals the keys to joy in the midst of troubles. Join me for this episode of Wisdom from Above to discover how to experience joy in the midst of troubles.

Every one of us faces battles in our everyday life. Your battles may be with your finances, they may be with your parents, they may be with your marriage partner, they may be with your children. Your battles may be at your school, at your work, or at your social gatherings. Your battles may be with friends who have betrayed you or enemies who want to destroy you. Your battles may be with Marxist politicians, liberal theologians, Hollywood leftists, global elitists, gender bending activists, or satanic forces. We all face tough battles! We all have troubles and trials in this life.

David... shepherd boy turned King of Israel face his share of troubles and trials. Psalm 3 tells about the time his own son led a revolt against him. This Psalm, in which David describes his troubles, will give us some practical steps to take when we face troubles and trials.

Think of the foolishness of the clay pot trying to get rid of the potter. That is what we are seeing in our world today. The creature (man) trying to get rid of the Creator (God). Global elitists, Hollywood leftists, liberal professors, and left-wing media all seem to be trying to censor and forbid any mention of God, any prayer to God, and any reference to His commands. They reject the idea of Biblical morality and absolute truths. God is being pushed out of our institutions and nations. Believers in Christ are being pushed to the fringe of society. What is God's response? What is God's plan? Psalm 2 reveals God's perspective on man's rebellion against Him. This Psalm also reveals God's plan to squash the rebellion. And we will see, as Isaac Watts correctly wrote, Jesus shall reign where're the sun does its successive journeys run; His kingdom spread from shore to shore, till moon shall wax and wane no more. noted. Join us as we investigate Psalm 2

I am thrilled to report that this episode of Wisdom from Above is the beginning of our 9th season. All 126 episodes that precede this episode are available to everyone everywhere that has WiFi connections. 

Our world is becoming increasingly secular. We live in a world of lawlessness and license. We live in a day of spiritual ignorance and moral ambivalence. Godly men and godly women are looked upon with disfavor as politically incorrect and as dangerously subversive.  Believers in Christ are being attacked as though they are the enemy. Looting and stealing, raving and pillaging, lying and deceiving are going unjudged and even praised. Values are twisted, bodies are degraded, and minds are depraved. There is an increasing sense of fear and frustration and futility in our world. 

What message would God give to people who are living in such savage times? Does God’s Word have anything to say about how to find contentment, satisfaction, fulfillment, meaning, purpose, life, joy, and happiness? Yes it does... and therefore, this 9th season of Wisdom from Above will focus on the Psalms and will seek to find personal help, practical guidance, and divine insight for the difficult issues of life. Join us as we embark on this new venture into the Psalms. Today we will investigate Psalm 1 - "How to be Truly Happy."

In this episode of Wisdom from Above, we conclude our investigation of the Book of Revelation by examining

The Faithful Word of God the Father, The Finished Work of God the Son, and The Final Witness of God the Spirit.

Three times Jesus says, "I am coming." 

We join the beloved Apostle John in saying, "Even so, come Lord Jesus!"

Three times those who have not yet placed their fight in Christ are urged to "Come" to Christ in faith...

believing that Jesus died in their place, paid for their sins, rose from the grave, and offers them eternal life as a free gift. 

Join me as we wrap up this exciting study of Revelation!

Our eyes have not seen, our ears have not heard and our mind has not imagined the incredible blessings God has in store for us throughout eternity.

In this episode of Wisdom from Above we will discover five fantastic blessings that will be available to the believer. Each of these blessings is accompanied by a practical challenge for us that impacts how we think and speak and act in this life. How we live in this life sets the stage for joys we will experience in eternity.

This episode is loaded with songs that naturally flow from a heart that is passionate about pleasing the Lord. I hope you find this episode very encouraging and I hope that is stipulates an eager anticipation for things to come!
