Lies are everywhere, but where did they begin? Jesus described the devil as a murderer, a liar, and the father of lies because he “abode not in truth” (John 8:44). Evil did not originate with God, and the consequences of rejecting truth are eternal. In this episode of One Gospel Minute, discover why the choice between truth and lies is more than a matter of words—it is a matter of where we will spend eternity.

Many commissions have been given throughout history, but only one is the Great Commission. Before returning to heaven, Jesus entrusted His followers with a mission that would outlast kingdoms, cross every border, and offer salvation to every soul. Given by the risen Christ and founded upon His authority, the Great Commission continues to call Christians to proclaim the gospel to the world. Why is it truly great? Because of the Savior who gave it, the salvation it offers, and the eternal hope it proclaims.

Throughout July, One Gospel Minute is returning to its roots. Before podcasts and social media, One Gospel Minute shared biblical truth over the radio through the voice of Tennessee Bible College founder Malcolm Hill.

In this Throwback Thursday archive episode, Malcolm Hill uses the familiar idea of trading to illustrate an important truth about God's design for marriage.

Freedom has never come without sacrifice. Throughout the history of this nation, countless men and women have willingly laid down their lives so others might live in liberty. On this Memorial Day episode, we honor those sacrifices while remembering the greater freedom found in Jesus Christ, who gave His life “a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). As we reflect on the blessings we enjoy, may we never take for granted the cost of freedom—both as Americans and as Christians.

In a world that often overlooks the home, one truth remains: moms matter. God designed motherhood with purpose, giving women a powerful role in shaping lives and faith.

A godly mother influences generations—teaching, guiding, and pointing her family to God. Scripture shows the lasting impact of faithful mothers and the void left when that influence is gone.

If we want strong homes and a faithful future, we need Christian mothers.

Introducing A Month in Minutes.

This first edition brings together every One Gospel Minute from April into one continuous message—making it simple to hear the truth that saves, one minute at a time.

In a world full of opinions, feelings, and shifting ideas, one question still matters: What is truth? While many treat truth as something personal or flexible, God’s word stands as the unchanging standard.

Truth is not what we think or feel—it is what God has revealed. His word will not only guide us, but it will also judge us in the last day. If we want to be set free, we must seek the truth where it is found—in the Word of God.

People often look to professions, platforms, and personalities to change the world, but when God set out to save mankind, He chose something far simpler—He sent a preacher. Jesus came declaring the good news, teaching the saving message of God in its simplicity. While man has complicated that message over time, the truth has not changed. The Gospel is still the power of God to save, and it’s time to get back to the basics.

The New Testament church did not begin just anywhere—it began exactly where God said it would. In this episode, Malcolm Hill points us back to Isaiah’s prophecy and its fulfillment in Acts 2, showing that the church established in Jerusalem is the church we read about in the Bible. If we want the right church, we must begin in the right place.

This throwback episode is a tribute to Malcolm Hill, founder of Tennessee Bible College and the original voice of One Gospel Minute. Though he has passed on, his faithful preaching continues to inspire and...

Two times a year, the world talks about Jesus—Easter and Christmas—but the truth about remembering Him is not found in tradition. It is revealed in His word. While many observe a yearly celebration of the resurrection, the New Testament does not teach it. Instead, it points to a weekly remembrance of the risen Savior every first day of the week. To misunderstand how and when we honor Christ is to miss what Scripture plainly reveals about worship, the resurrection, and the Gospel itself.

Many people have ideas about what God is like, but the truth is not found in human opinion—it is revealed in His word. The Bible teaches that God is eternal, unchanging, and far above the shifting thoughts of men. To misunderstand God is to misunderstand everything that follows, including life, suffering, and salvation.

Rather than shaping God into what we want Him to be, we are called to know Him as He truly is. Tennessee Bible College is offering an After Dark course, The Attributes of God, to help you study these truths more deeply an...

People often search for something new, even in matters of worship and service to God. In ancient Athens, people spent their time wanting to hear the latest idea, and our world is much the same today. Yet God has already given us what we need through His word and warns us not to add to it or take away from it. Instead of changing God’s doctrine or the practices He has revealed, we are called to follow His will faithfully and live according to the truth He has given.

Wake up. The hour is later than we think. In this episode of One Gospel Minute, David Hill invites you to RENEW 2026, a day of focused Bible study and spiritual renewal on Saturday, February 28th at 9:00 AM on the campus of Tennessee Bible College. Centered on Romans 13:8–14, the program highlights Paul’s call to rise from spiritual sleep, walk in the light, and put on the Lord Jesus Christ in daily life. RENEW is Tennessee Bible College’s annual lectureship, established in 1980 by Malcolm Hill and Thomas Warren, and for decades has brought respected gospel preachers to campus to streng...

Social media says 2026 feels like 2016 again. In 2016, at our RENEW Lectureship, the theme was “Revisiting the Battle…” as we studied the struggle with modernism, denominationalism, moral impurity, and false doctrine — but the truth is, the battle never left. And in 2026, the question isn’t just what are we fighting? It’s who is responsible? Romans 13:14 says, “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ.” The battle is real, but responsibility is personal. 

Join us for RENEW 2026: “My Responsibility” (Romans 13:8–14) on February 28 at Tennessee Bible College, and view the full schedule and details at https://www.tn-biblecollege.edu/renew/.

Jesus’ illustration of the wise man building his house on the rock, given at the close of the Sermon on the Mount, is more than a familiar children’s song—it is a serious call to obedience.
