Podcast 315: True Comfort in the Midst of Horrific Pain
When Jesus tried to comfort His disciples He went about it in a way that seems foreign to us. We comfort by trying to take the pain away, by saying some soothing words that aren't always true. We say, "Hey, don't worry about it, don't cry, everything's going to be...

Podcast 314: How to Exalt Jesus More Than Ourselves

Podcast 313: “He Must Increase, But I Must Decrease”
As we face coming persecution in this country, one of the most important preparations we can make is to totally commit our lives to the living Lord Jesus. But that raises a few questions. What does total commitment look like? And what does total commitment really...

1933 in Nazi Germany
I know many of you may reject what I'm about to say, but I see us as Christians in America in the same place the Jews found themselves in 1935 in Nazi Germany. Yes, you heard me right. I see us as living in Germany in 1935. The parallels are striking. Just this last...

Podcast 309: Living in Two Kingdoms, Revisited

Revelation 3:15-17
