  • Contend for the Faith: Keep On Going
    Sep 19 2024

The result of that is that we always say that the problem is outside of us. But Jesus says the problem is within. Jude 1:17-25 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • I Wish I'd Asked That: How Do You Find Complete Joy?
    Sep 16 2024
    It's not about happiness or a big house or successful children—all that will be dust in the end. Happiness is temporary.

  • I Wish I'd Asked That: How Do We Bear Good Fruit? Part 2
    Sep 11 2024
    This isn't about the person who has never been to church. This is about people who look like they're connected to the vine, but aren't. It's quite possible to grow up in the church and do all the "right" things, but not actually bear any fruit. It all comes down to regeneration by the Spirit.
