The Gospel Of Peace

The Gospel Of Peace

The Gospel of Peace podcast (formerly True Riches Radio) exists to share the radical, transformative message of the nonviolent love of God as revealed in Jesus Christ. The podcast seeks to challenge conventional Christian views on violence, war, and enemy love, inviting believers and non-believers alike to reconsider what it truly means to follow the way of Christ. Through teachings, reflections, and guest interviews, "The Gospel of Peace" calls Christians to abandon all forms of violence and embrace the peaceable kingdom of God, which tears down the walls that separate us from one another and from the true nature of God. This podcast is for those who desire to know God as revealed in Jesus—self-giving love that does not retaliate or seek harm, but loves without boundaries or fear.

Jesus didn’t come to tweak your life. He came to confront and overthrow the empire to make way for the Kingdom of God.

In this final episode of our "Gospel of the Kingdom" series, we get honest about what it means to follow Jesus in a world built on power, fear, violence, and domination. The Kingdom is more about allegiance than mere words. It’s about action. The Kingdom is lived, not just preached. 

It’s time to choose your King.

If Jesus had to die, whose idea was it—God’s or ours?

Many Christians assume God required the crucifixion to satisfy divine wrath, but have you ever noticed how clearly the apostles place responsibility for Jesus’ death on humanity? 

In Acts 2, Peter says explicitly, "you put him to death." Yet many believers still think God demanded Jesus’ murder. How could the murderers of Jesus possibly be fulfilling God’s will?

Why did Jesus have to die?

For many of us, the answer seems simple. We’ve been told that Jesus died to pay for our sins or to take our punishment. But is that really the whole story?

In this episode, we take a fresh look at the cross and explore whether we’ve misunderstood the reason for Jesus’ death.

Was it about satisfying God’s wrath?

Or was something deeper happening?
