David faced a lot of tough times in his life. But even when it felt like his life was falling apart, David didn’t crumble under the stress. He prayed and asked God for help, and in doing so, he set a great example for all believers about the power of prayer when life gets tough.
Peter is proof that if you’re a true disciple of Jesus, you can do whatever Jesus asks you to do. Even when you’re afraid or unsure, you can trust Jesus’ plan for you, because when Jesus calls you, it’s because He believes in you.
As we read today’s text, we’ll see that God called the messenger, but when God called the messenger, the messenger refused the call. Jonah rejected the call of God on his life. But as messed up as that may be, Jonah did something even worse. You see, Jonah didn’t just reject the incoming call from God and send it to voicemail. No. He answered the phone. He heard God’s voice on the other line. He received clear instructions from God...
In John 17, Jesus gives us access to one of the most intimate moments He had with the Father while He was on earth. As we read about this encounter, we’ve been given an all-access pass to the Son of God’s situation room at one of His life's most pressure- packed moments. He’s looking to the sky and talking to God the Father just moments before He would be beaten and crucified and killed, and in that moment, what was on His heart? W...
Inside each of us, I believe there are 3 people: The person you are right now, the person you could become—if you allowed Satan to rule your life, and the person you could become if you allowed God to rule your life. Today, we’re going to talk about a man in the Bible, who I believe demonstrates for us the person we could be if we’d just surrender and let God be God in our lives. His name was Jabez. And while we don’t know a ton ab...
I love mulligans in the game of golf. But you know what’s even better than that? It’s when you get a mulligan in life. It’s an amazing thing when God says, “Hey, you shanked that first shot, but tee it up and hit another one.” And believe it or not, there are many places in Scripture where God, in His grace and His mercy, does just that. There’s one thing I’ve learned about the Lord that I believe many times we tend to overlook—and...
Unfortunately, I don’t think you and I will ever really understand on this side of heaven why bad things happen. In 1 Cor. 13:12, Paul says, “For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, as I am fully known.” He’s talking about our perspective and our perception of the world, and he tells us that today we’re trying to see clearly and understand the big pictu...
Good mothers are homemakers. That’s not a derogatory term, rather it’s a biblical term. When you hear about a “homemaker,” that isn’t exclusively referring to stay-at-home moms, and it doesn’t mean a woman can’t work outside of the home. But what it does mean is that according to God’s design, you, as a woman and as a mother, have responsibilities in your home and to your family. The Lord tells us that how you live your life today ...
The story of Easter is not just about what happened to Jesus—it’s about what His resurrection means for us today. Think about the disciples on Friday. They had placed all their hope in Jesus, believing He was the Messiah who would redeem Israel. But then, they watched Him die. They were devastated, confused, and afraid. Saturday was silent—God seemed absent. But Sunday changed everything. In just three days, their sorrow turned to ...
The mission of the church will never be accomplished if we don’t first love God. Loving God is the foundation of our mission. And not only is it the foundation of our mission, but it’s also the first step in accomplishing our mission. Until we get THIS right, we as the church will never BE right. So what does it look like to love God? Let’s find out together.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve been walking through a series and a season of Advent. That word “Advent” means “to wait” or “to anticipate.” We’ve seen how Christmas was the culmination of Advent#1 — 2,000 years ago — God’s people were waiting for the Messiah, and they were waiting because God had promised them that He would send a Savior. Seven hundred years after the promise was made, the promise was fulfilled, and Jesus Christ wa...
Are you waiting for God to come through for you right now? Are you waiting for God to prove Himself faithful? Are you waiting for God to keep His word? If you answered yes to any of those questions, I want to remind you that you’re waiting on a God that always comes through. He’s a God who always keeps His promises. He’s never broken a single promise. When God told His people that a baby was coming, peace was coming, His Son, the M...
If your joy comes from a thing, you’ll always need more of that thing to maintain your joy. But that’s not the way joy was designed to work. God never said that our joy should be contingent on our circumstances. He said our joy comes from our Savior. And that doesn’t mean things are always going to go our way. It doesn’t mean we won’t experience trials and difficulties along the way. But the truth is that you can be sad on the surf...
Have you ever wondered how people were saved before Jesus came to the earth? After all, we’ve grown up hearing the Gospel, which is based on the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. So if that’s the case, how were people saved before those things happened? The answer is that people have always been saved by grace through faith. There was a moment in time when people had faith prior to having a long, extensive pattern. Those w...
Your response to failure will either move you away from God or it'll make you more like God. And many times, we get it right, but a lot of times, we get it wrong. In today’s message, we're going
learn from Peter’s life how we can get it right beginning today. None of us enjoy talking about our shortcomings, but the truth is God can use the failure in your life to develop you as a disciple of Jesus Christ in a way that success never ...
I love the thought of Joseph of Arimethea, the man who let Jesus use his tomb, going home the night that Jesus was killed and telling his wife, “Hey honey, guess what? I have to confess to you,
I gave my tomb away.” In response, she might have looked at him and said, “Honey, how could you do that? You know how much it costs for us to have that tomb hewn out of the rock for me and for you and for our children and grandchildren.” But ...
Today we are going to continue our journey through the Holy Land and make a stop at Golgotha – the place where Jesus was crucified and died for our sins. This is a pivotal stop on our Holy Land Highlights tour, one that makes this journey so significant. For if Jesus hadn’t died, He wouldn’t have had the chance to be resurrected and become the Savior of the world. So today, we’re going to dive in and learn more about Golgotha and b...
In part five of our Holy Land Highlights series, we are going to discuss Caiaphas’s house. This was a place of major significance in the story of Jesus’ life and death. It is where Jesus was taken for the last night of His life before the crucifixion. So, what can we know about what happened from that Thursday night to Friday morning? Well, there’s no biblical account that explains in detail what Jesus experienced that night, but w...
As you read further in the gospel of Matthew, you see how the disciples reacted to all that Jesus went through in the final hours before His crucifixion. In His greatest hour of need, His closest friends scattered and left Him all alone. But before that, Jesus brought His disciples up on the Mount of Olives and told them to sit. As soon as they got to the Garden, Jesus told them to sit. Why is that? Well, that’s the question we’re ...
Jesus was always a great teacher, and one thing that made Him great (other than the fact that He’s the Son of God) was that He knew how to use visual aids to communicate His message. Jesus loved using visual aids in his teaching. So now, as we come to Matthew 16 in this message, you can just imagine what it must have been like as the disciples went through the gates and approached the center of this pagan city. I believe the accoun...

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
