Today, we begin the third and final chapter of 2nd Peter. If this book contains Peter's last and most important thoughts for the Christians of his day, then this chapter contains perhaps his most important thoughts in this book.
In this teaching, we discuss the kind of heart that ultimately finds God. We emphasize the place of desire and why all desires must ultimately be submitted to Christ. We end this teaching by looking into 'the Day of the Lord' and what it means for the believer.
We trust it will bless you!

Today, we wrap up the second chapter of 2nd Peter. With conversations around honor for authority, paying attention to covetousness, greed and lust.

Today, we head into the second chapter of 2 Peter. In this study, we begin a reading exercise where we compare with Jude to see where the similarities lie.
We spend a great deal of time in verses 6-9 as we discuss what it means to live in a godless world today. It's a teaching that would no doubt stir you up to pray.
We trust it will bless you!

We trust it will bless you!

We trust it will bless you!

(Jude 1:7 - 9)
Today, we continue our teaching through Jude. Here we answer very important questions, how did Jude come to learn about the supposed battle in the sky? We also spend some time discussing what took place in Sodom and Gomorrah. It's a teaching that is both theologically dense as well as culturally sensitive, may God give us wisdom as we navigate it.

(Jude 1:1 - 4)
Today, after several months, we begin a new book - Jude! In today's introductory teaching, we emphasize Jude's purpose for writing this letter: Contending for the faith. This has to do with much more than doctrine though, in our secular world today, there are many ways we would need to stand firm in our faith about.
We trust it will bless you!

Today, we start to bring our teachings through 2 Cor to a close. In Paul's final words, he makes one last plea to the Corinthian church to respond to his correction. Faced with the real chance of having to discipline them, he encourages them to change or face a serious side of him when he arrives there.

Today, we discuss a very important passage of scripture. We begin by discussing the place of supernatural revelation in the believer. Afterward, we spend time discussing Paul's thorn in the flesh. What could it mean? How are we to think about it as believers? How should we respond to suffering? And more...
We trust it will bless you!

We trust it will bless you!

Today, while we continue into a new chapter, our overarching theme remains the same. In the verses we explore, Paul continues to convince the Corinthian church why these false teachers should have no place in their hearts.
In this teaching, we focus on the devil's age-old strategy: presenting thoughts and alternatives. It would cause you to reevaluate your commitment to keeping yourself in the wisdom and love of God.

(2 Cor 10:1 - 9)
Today, we resume our journey through 2 Corinthians. We head back into Chapter 10 with a new theme emphasis. Paul is out to defend his apostleship in the face of slander and attack. What makes someone a minister of the gospel? What does it mean to war according to the power of God? How do we wage war in the face of today's culture for the hearts of men? This teaching would answer these questions and more. We trust it will bless you!

Happy new year!
And what a way to kickstart our first teaching for the year! Today, we wrap up our conversations on Christian generosity with a lengthy conversation on Tithing.
In what is perhaps our longest teaching yet, join us as we explore pretty much all the bible says about this topic. Should the Christian tithe today? What about the promise of blessings in Malachi. If you've ever been confused on the topic of tithing, this teaching would bless you tremendously.

New chapter, same theme. In this teaching, we reemphasize what it means to be transformed from the heart. We begin to walk through Paul's lessons on the 'how' of giving, as well as what to expect when we give. I trust it would bless you in no small way!

This teaching would certainly leave you with a lot to think and meditate on.

Today, we begin chapter 7. In this teaching, we emphasize a few important concepts in the word. First, we talk briefly about what it means to be a person of joy. Next, we talk about learning to discern the will and leading of God even in the natural aspects of our lives. We also spend some time talking about the place of holiness yet again in the believer's life as well as the vulnerability that comes with being a minister of the gospel.
We trust it would bless you!

Today, we wrap up chapter 6. In this teaching, we continue the theme of not being 'Unequally Yoked with Unbelievers'. What are the little things we've become complacent in? In what ways is our awareness of sin not as sharp as it should be? This teaching challenges our ideas of what it means to be separate from the world. I hope it blesses you and leaves you with a lot to act on. Happy listening!

Today we bring to wraps a four week long teaching on the 5th chapter of 2 Corinthians. It's been such a beautiful and challenging journey as we have been stirred to live for God in every sense of our lives. In these final verses, we explore what it means to be ministers of reconciliation. We re-emphasize the sacrifice of Christ and our response to this beautiful gift.

If you've been keeping up these past few weeks, you'd see that we've slowed the pace a whole lot. There's nothing to regret as we've had a lot to emphasize from these verses. In the short space of three verses today, we discuss what it really means to be a new creation, what it means not to regard people after the flesh, and what it really means to be compelled by the love of Christ. This is yet another teaching you'd want to leave reflecting and praying on. We trust it will bless you!

Today, we continue our journey through the 5th Chapter of 2nd Corinthians. In today's teaching, we emphasize a couple of important themes. We talk about the terror of the Lord and hold it in a healthy perspective with the love of God. We discuss what our values should look like as believers as well as the motivation we get from knowing God loves us. In just a few verses, we discuss very vital truths that ought to define our lives as believers.

Today, we begin the 5th Chapter of 2nd Corinthians. As we've done since chapter 2, we continue Paul's theme of the gravity of the work of the ministry. In this teaching however, Paul focuses on the hope of a glorified body. We discuss what it means to live with this hope and how we can go about our everyday life keeping the promise of glory in our hearts. On a practical level, this should help your devotional life a lot more! We trust it would bless you.

We talk about the veil that lies over the hearts of people resistant to the gospel, as well as the devil being the God of this age. We trust it will bless you!

Today, we begin with 2 Cor chapter 3. Perhaps the most theologically dense of the entire book. In today's episode, we start to compare the old and the new covenant. We remind ourselves the importance of theology as well as the need to be interested in the pursuit of God. This is the first of a two part chapter teaching that would thoroughly inform how you view the law and what Christ has done. We trust it would bless you!

We remind ourselves what it truly means to forgive like Christ. Finally, we re-emphasize the urgency and responsibility we have as believers to represent the gospel in all that we do. We know it would be worth every minute of your time! Happy listening!

Today, we begin our journey through the first few verses of 2 Corinthians. In this teaching, we camp out in verses 3 to 7. There is a lot of emphasis here on how God comforts us to comfort others.
This teaching reminds us what it means to really live for God, what our perspective in difficult times should be, and how we can help others through the difficult times we've been through ourselves. It's no exaggeration when we say this is a teaching that would bless you in no small way.

(Titus 1:1 - 4)
Today, we begin a brand new book! The last of the three ministerial books: Titus. While this is a book that draws from the themes of 1 and 2 Timothy, this book also places a huge emphasis on living for Christ in the midst of a godless culture. The Cretans were known for their godless lifestyle and so new believers had to be extra intentional about not living like their neighbors.
In today's teaching, we spend time laying out the foundations for this book as well as explore the first four verses. This introduction would not only shape your understanding for the rest of the book but would also remind you of the basics of what it means to live for God. We trust it would bless you!

Today, we conclude the last chapter of this incredible book. In this chapter, we explore Paul's last words. We revisit his emphasis on consistency, standing firm as a believer and then personal instructions to Timothy. The fact that we get to look into the personal life of such a great man of God is a huge privilege and I'm sure this teaching would only serve to show that. There's also an extended time of questions at the end that don't necessarily have to do with today's teaching. I'm sure the entire session as a whole would bless you! Happy listening!

Do they apply to us today? What about conversations around modesty as well? While not exhaustive, this teaching would leave you with a lot to think about as you go on examining this sensitive issue in the church today. We trust it would bless you. Happy listening!

Today, we resume our journey through 1 Timothy. We wrap up our conversations through chapter one with Paul once again encouraging Timothy to 'wage a good warfare' with the Ephesian people. In chapter 2, we see Paul emphasize the need for every community of believers to obsess themselves with the salvation of people around them. We explore how important prayer is and many other topics! We trust it would bless you. Happy listening!

Today, we go a step further into the book of 2 Thessalonians. Paul begins to introduce interesting concepts like the man of sin, the great falling away, and the person who restrains. The question is: What do we make of concepts like this? In today's teaching, we discuss how to handle texts that aren't as clear as well as what the believer's response to matters pertaining to the end-time be. We trust it would bless you!

Today, we kick off the second part of the Thessalonian journey. A direct follow up to the conversations we've had over the past few teachings. Paul continues to remind them to persevere in persecution, comforts them about the coming of the Lord, and reminds them to pay attention to their conduct. In the first chapter today, we talk extensively about the coming of Christ and what it means for those who haven't believed. What happens to those who haven't heard the gospel? Is hell really eternal? What is our responsibility amongst all this? And many more! We trust it would bless you!

What was satan doing among the sons of God? What does it mean to be both son of God and son of man. And many more questions. We trust it will bless you!

Today, we take a small pause from going through chapter 14 to talk extensively about the gifts of tongues and interpretation. We must seek to be believers that believe all the bible says, even if we're uncomfortable with it. Have you ever had questions about tongues? why they are necessary? what do they supply to the body? and much more? This teaching would bless you for sure!

In this chapter, Paul starts to clearly state what a community given to love and a strong desire for the gifts would look like in practice. In this episode, we explore how much more profitable prophecy is in a local assembly when compared with tongues. There's a lot we hope to cover in the next few episodes and we trust this would be a great way to start!

Today, we bring an end to chapter 9 but definitely not the topic of forgoing rights for the sake of the gospel. Once more, we see how Paul makes several cultural compromises to ensure that the gospel spreads easier and how we've all been called to sacrifice, regardless of how that plays out in our personal contexts. There's also a little textual gruel at the end! What does Paul mean when he says 'that I might not be a castaway'? Find out in this teaching! We trust it would be a great listen!

Today, we took a small detour to remind ourselves what it means to be profitable students of the word. Ever wondered why all that time spent in bible study doesn't seem to be showing any results? This teaching is for you! We briefly resume our conversation on marriage showing what an ideal expression of sexual intimacy looks like in the marital union.

Today, we begin a very sensitive and very important issue in the church: Marital issues. Before we dive into the chapter, we establish a foundation of what the marital union really is. There's so much to learn in this episode, it's one you'd definitely have to come back to again and again. We trust it would bless you!

Today, we're stepping right into the next issue Paul addresses in this letter: Handling Sin in the Church. We also discuss how legal issues ought to be handled between believers. Finally, we see just how harmful sexual immorality is to the believer. Needless to say, there's a lot of practical application this teaching holds. Let's dive right in!

Today, we bring a wrap to the very first issue in the church: division. Here, we remind ourselves to be careful in our evaluation of both ourselves and those around. Paul presents an example of what genuine ministry and Christianity ought to look like. You want to identify with the early church? This teaching presents yet another reminder that it isn't going to be easy. I'm sure it would bless you.

Today, we're hitting right off from where we left off! There is a simplicity of the gospel that makes it so elusive from the self-sufficient. Paul explores this idea in great detail but while doing so, he makes it clear that the gospel is without a doubt perhaps the greatest demonstration of God's wisdom and power. So much to learn here, we know you'd be blessed!

Today, we kick off a new book! The first epistle we have to the Corinthian church! Perhaps no other epistle we have today deals as directly with practical church issues like this one. So stay tuned, there's a lot to cover. In this introductory teaching, we explore the nature of Corinth, why Paul had to write this letter, the problem of division, and the topic of water baptism. I'm sure you'd be really blessed!

Today was all about the mind. From a persistent reminder to keep our heart fixed on eternity, to an instruction to stay joyful (yet again), to instructions about peace. The mind is so important and this is one episode that would definitely remind you of that. Happy listening!

Today, we explored what circumcision really means. We also take out time to explore the heart of Paul, a heart willing to forgo worldly status for the excellency of Christ. I trust that you would be stirred in no small way! Happy listening!
(Phil 2:19 - Phil 3:2)
What an episode! Today, we discussed the idea of healing for believers today. We also saw the place of consistent teaching in the word. This is one episode that is better heard than just summarized. I know you'd be blessed as you listen. What's more? there's plenty of ground to cover! So stick around!
(Phil 1:25 - 2:18)
We take a deeper dive into the book of Philippians. In this episode, we see the heart of the believer, a mirror of the heart of Christ. Jesus, the humble example, shines through a beautiful poem. What does it mean to work out your salvation? Find out here as well!
(Phil 1:1 - 1:25)
Happy new year! Hope you're ready for another journey through the epistles?!
We're kicking off with one of Paul's most personable books: Phillippians. In this episode, we learn to value the family of God we have around us, we learn to see the goodness of God even in difficult times and we learn what it means to live for Christ.
It's a teaching that would stir you up in no small way. Ready? Set? Go!
We kick off a brand new book! The book of 2nd Peter contains Peter's public thoughts right before he was killed. A person's last words tell a lot about what matters most to them. Join us as we study what mattered most to Peter.
What's more, we now have a benediction!!! Here it goes:
Benediction
I am a diligent student and doer of the word,
I am a teacher of the word,
The word is profitable for my growth,
Call: By the word
Response: I am corrected
Call: By the word

Call: And in the word

In the last episode of yet another book, we summarize all that Peter has tried to communicate in this amazing letter: What the true grace of Christ looks like in an opposing world. With yet more exhortations as to how to live in the face of suffering, this is definitely a good way to wrap up an amazing set of episodes!
In this episode, we continue to track Peter's thoughts on what a community called out by God looks like in a world filled with people who don't exactly feel the same way. We explore what it means to stand firm in the face of suffering, love one another, and serve one another with the gifts that God has given us. There's a lot to learn and it's a teaching that would definitely leave you stirred up. Happy listening!
In the third teaching in this epistle, we explore practically what it means to show forth the praises of God in our cultural contexts. Be it citizen, employee or spouse, there's a way our faith in Christ informs us to live, especially in the face of critics. Trust it blesses you!
A bonus teaching? Why not! This teaching, recorded in 2019, goes deeper into the theme of "How to read the bible". What would Jesus have discussed on the road to Emmaus? Why should I spend time in the Old Testament? Is there a "right" way to read the word of God? This teaching would definitely help you appreciate the Bible as a single unified story.
In our second step in this book, we explore more what it means to be a pilgrim on this earth, what it means to be God's living stone, and how we are to live in the world today. This teaching promises to warm your heart with the Joys of salvation. Let's dive in!
A new book comes with so much to learn! And 1st Peter is definitely worth its while. We start this episode by exploring the sovereignty of God and the free will of man. We spend considerable time rejoicing in the hope we have as believers. Get ready to be stirred up in no small way!
Whoop whoop! We made it to the end of James. In this episode, we discuss the place of endurance, the place of prayer, and the place of community. What does it look like to depend on God even in the basics of everyday life? Found out in this teaching!
Another pretty direct episode as is typical of James. Today we discuss various aspects of our day-to-day lives where our faith ought to influence. From watching our words to trusting God for the outcome of our lives, James has a lot to say! Take time out to evaluate your own life as you listen to this episode.
Is Christianity a religion or a relationship? Well, James certainly thinks it's both! Listen as James takes us through what sincere faith in the gospel looks like on a practical level!
With a new book comes a lot to learn, and the book of James is not any different! In this first chapter, we discuss A LOT about the things to note and bear in mind when we go through trials. Let this episode stir you up as well as encourage you when next you find yourself going through trials. Enjoy!!
Phew! We made it!...The very last chapter of what has been an amazing journey through Hebrews. In this episode, we dive into the various important instructions the author leaves for the readers. Do you agree with him on the letter being one with just a few words though!?
Still on Hebrews 12, in today's teaching, we explore how we can collectively as a body look out for one another as well as what it means to pursue peace. God is a consuming fire? Scary, find out what that means today.

We're still on this amazing Journey called Hebrews. In today's teaching, we dive into the topic that the writer has been teasing for a while: The Priesthood of Melchizedek! Who is he? And why is he so important to us as Christians today? Find out as you listen!
In this long but very in-depth study, we look at the slight deviation the author takes to encourage his readers to stand strong and grow. Ever wondered how to handle the old testament, how to do a proper word study, or perhaps the dreaded 'Hebrews 6' question, I guarantee that this is an episode you won't be quick to let go!
We've learned so much from just a few chapters in this amazing letter to the Hebrews. Today we take another step forward: What qualifies a High priest? What does Jesus' experience at the garden teach about prayer? How should a believer see suffering? Find out in this episode!
Still on the supremacy of Christ, we explore how Jesus is superior to Moses. Moreso, we take a dive into the 'rest' of God, what does that truly mean? Find out here!
In this episode, we learn what it means for Jesus to be Captain of our Salvation. We conclude on His superiority over angels. So much to learn!
A brand new book! Perhaps one of the most theologically dense we hope to cover. In this episode, find out: Who is this Son who is also Creator of the world? How does the superiority of Christ stack up against both angels and prophets. So much to learn, and even more ground to cover! Happy listening.

A new book! Listen in as we explore Paul's mind revealed in this letter to the Colossian church.
Today, we bring the book of Ephesians to wraps! How do we take on the armor of God? Find out here!
