Storms and testings build within us a confidence in God’s faithfulness and ability to perform what He’s promised. Less worry, more worship. Less control, more trust. Our misalignment to truth results in the trouble in my soul. God doesn’t remove the trouble, He uses it to realign me to His truth…and there’s where my freedom lies. “Deny yourself, pick up your cross, follow Me.” Jesus’ message is still the same. If I want to save my ...

Life is training, and it will take as long as it takes for us to come to the place where we allow God to be God. God’s ability to bring restoration to everything is truly supernatural. But He uses the natural everyday life circumstances, trials, and passage of time to get us there. Mary and Joseph fleeing to Egypt to save baby Jesus; Moses spending 40 years with sheep and another 40 with whiny Israelites; and Jeremiah in captivity ...

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to salvation. This week Steve and Diana talk about how Paul was determined to preach Jesus and His message, which almost got him killed in every town he went to. When the Church was starting, it didn’t take long for false doctrines and rumors to cause strife. Traditions were being challenged by the Gospel. Today, is no different: the Gospel message is being challenged, even sidelined, ...

This week Steve and Diana discuss Tradition vs. Cornelius’ brave faith: If we don’t listen to the Living voice of God, we will adhere to our traditions rather than living by the leading of the Spirit, in agreement with the Living Word. Peter can’t even fathom the meaning of the vision he’s just had. It took a display of the Holy Spirit to reveal to Peter what God was up to. A new mission movement: Barnabus and Paul partner in evang...

The Fathering of God. Hebrews 12 is a picture of how far Father has committed Himself to make us partakers of His holiness. Steve and Diana discuss Jesus’ mission to reveal the Father imparted to the disciples, who now are revealing Jesus, so everyone can be brought back to the Father. Establishing them as a people group that knows Who He is and will walk as he is. Love has responsibility. If I’m in covenant with you, the way in wh...

Whether it's through the prophet Jeremiah or Jesus, God is at work to bring His children into reconciliation with Himself. Steve points out how Jeremiah served as God’s marriage counselor to Israel, consistently calling them back.

Forgiveness is what Jesus commanded them in the upper room right after breathing on them to receive the Holy Spirit. We can’t ever leave the place of forgiveness if we are to enjoy God. We must receive it ...

If I’m stuck seeing God as punisher, I will miss His heart completely. Steve points out how intimacy with the Lord is based on understanding His heart. His heart is for union with us. When God points out sin in our lives, it is to liberate us, not to condemn us. As Steve and Diana focus on Timothy’s shepherding a new church, David’s relationship with God in the Psalms, and Jeremiah’s role as “marriage counselor” between God and Isr...

The work of God is BELIEF in Jesus as the Christ. How do we know what to believe? We read the Scriptures with a believing heart of faith. Over and over Steve points us back to the solid ground of immersing ourselves in the Scriptures, seeking to discover Jesus. When we accept God’s Word as truth through the lens of the life and purpose of Jesus as Reconciler, we let the scriptures define us rather than trying to explain them. “The ...

We decide whether to live by fear or by the completion of Jesus’ sanctifying work of redemption. “God has sons who serve, but He doesn’t have servants who are sons.”  Steve and Diana cover this week’s scriptures finding the continual theme: God wants to Father us into sonship which requires His perfecting work of revealing “Egypt” in our hearts  (scarcity and slave mentalities), yielding our souls to His outcomes, receiving His lov...

Just follow. Why does it become so easy to complicate the Christian life? Steve points out that unless we give God access to our hearts (intimacy, prayer, meeting Him in His Word), we don’t give Him the opportunity to redirect us as needed. In every earthly relationship, Jesus will still require that we choose Him. The Way is difficult. It cost Him everything. It costs us the willingness to give Him everything as well. In Exodus, b...

God didn’t give us a soul to judge it, but for the revealing of His glory through us as we return our souls back to Him. The adventure of discovery is glorious until the pressing comes. Looking at Moses’ trial with Pharoah, to telling the disciples to feed 5,000+ people, it’s frustrating to try to obey God when you’re looking at the circumstances of your own limitation. Our souls constantly try to bargain with God when we’re trying...

Steve and Diana discuss how Paul demonstrated the Kingdom of God through weakness. It was offensive to those who were following him. God often offends the mind to reveal the heart. It’s His strength that accomplishes the Kingdom, and He’s chosen to display it in our weakness. Uncomfortable and glorious, both are true. We become who Christ is because the Father has chosen to work through our messiness. God is inviting us into honest...

We interpret our trials through a lens of inaccurate vision. God speaks, we see what we think He said through our own lens of success, failure, and value. The fear we carry is that if the situation doesn’t change, the promise won’t be fulfilled. Steve uses the story of Joseph’s imprisonment to show how we eventually have to let go of what God promised us, or the promise becomes a debt God owes us. And that’s where faith becomes con...

No, we’re not talking reincarnation or some fatalistic theology. Steve passionately explains that as believers in Christ, Resurrection is our portion and the way of releasing an even greater reality! Death brings us to the end of ourselves: ourunderstanding and our demands to make sense of God’s ways. But if we hang on like Jacob in the wrestle, the blessing does come…though it didn’t look like we thought it would. Death brings for...

In this episode, Steve beautifully reveals how this week's scriptures challenge us to move from self-protection and performance to a life of surrender, peace, and transformation in Christ. It reminds us that the Christian life is about being with Jesus Christ—living in His presence, following His Word, and trusting Him through every season. 

Living the supernatural life of the cross is a life that is deeply connected to Christ, not ...

Description: As Steve and Diana discuss the Scriptures from Week 2 of our Bible-in-a-year plan, we are invited to a deeper, more surrender-filled relationship with God. It’s a call to move from striving and defending to resting in God’s presence and allowing His love to transform us. The testing of our faith is not about proving ourselves, but about humbling ourselves so we can receive His wisdom and peace. This kind of life is not...

The promise and the test—this is God’s way of shaping us. We’re starting the new year reading through the entire Bible again beginning with Genesis, Job, Isaiah, Matthew, and Romans. Steve and Diana reflect on the pattern of promise and testing unfolding in each book, ultimately pointing to Christ as the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan. The testing reveals not only our weaknesses but also God's sufficiency. We see in each stor...

Steve and Diana round out the year with our final scriptures. Through Paul’s journey to Rome, Esther’s life in the palace, Nehemiah rebuilding the ruined city, and the marraigae supper of the Lamb in Revelation we can find faith and courage to follow the Holy Spirit in every circumstance. He is the power of Jesus working in us to reveal Jesus through us. And THAT is our call.

When we try to "manage" our trauma, we find ourselves still in the same drama. Promise is by Grace; debt is by works. It's time to forgive God for the unanswered prayers and release Him from the debt we think He owes us. Steve brings light to this week's readings of how freedom came to Paul repeatedly in letting go of the details and trusting God with the outcome. We are invited to walk that same road of faith, trust, and believing...

This week’s readings show how envy often motivates naysayers and bad press. It’s how the enemy tries to discourage us from following through on what God has called us to. Worship places our eyes back on the Lord and His Lordship no matter the circumstances. Steve and Diana also discuss the Jesus Encounters Small Group Launch in January to read the Bible with others and encounter Jesus. For more info on starting a Jesus Encounter Sm...
