1 Thessalonians 5:12

Do you remember a great teacher you had? When people are given the space to make mistakes and grow at their own pace, it makes a lasting impact.

In this episode, Dr. John explores Jesus’ claim to divine authority as the fulfillment of Psalm 110 and contrasts it with the false authority of the religious leaders. He challenges us to recognize that true authority belongs to Jesus alone—the Son of God and Lord of all—calling us to respond with humble submission rather than mere admiration.

God wants us to know Him so much, He has given us a thorough look at His character—in His own words.

He speaks to you with loving words. He knows your deepest dreams. The suitor I'm talking about is God, and His love for you exceeds anything imaginable.

The honor and benefit of having a personal relationship with God is something to highly value and treasure.

Although some thought Jesus overturned the Law of Moses, he insists that he has come to fulfil it. His teaching on the Law’s requirements sets a standard of righteousness that we fail to meet on our own—and so it shows us that we need to rely on him and his righteousness to be acceptable to the Father. At the same time, Jesus does mean to call us to live according to a radically high standard. This is only possible through the gracious work of his Spirit in us.

Sermon Overview

Scripture Passage: Psalm 128

Perhaps the most difficult and profoundly rewarding role a man could ever commit to is being a good Dad. The faith of our fathers is what leads our families through the minefield of today’s world.

Psalm 128 describes a faithful father in four ways.

First, it is his character.

If you fear God, you will walk in the way of God. Though we will inevitably make mistakes, we can be...

They’re known as the “lukewarm” church. Jesus warned them that unless they turned back to him, he would spit them out of his mouth.

Some wrestle with the idea that Jesus is fully God and fully man, but this is a foundational truth of Christianity. Learn why a Jesus who’s only human or only divine would leave us with a powerless Gospel. Join us on Truth For Life with Alistair Begg.

Philippians 2:5-7

Do you have an unpleasant outlook on life? If so, are you aware it’s defiling the air around you? If you’re living like this, you’re hard to live with. It’s never too late to change your ways—to be sweet instead of sour.

J.John explains why we need to take the Great Commission seriously and share Jesus Christ with our friends and neighbors in a ‘natural’ way. He encourages us to invest in others through prayer, small acts of caring, and by reaching across social barriers.

We’re all familiar with wanting more—but what if peace came not from getting what we want, but learning to be content with what we have? In this episode, we unpack Philippians 4:11–13 to discover what Paul meant when he said he had “learned the secret of being content.” Whether you’re in a season of plenty or in a season of want, this conversation points you toward the kind of soul-deep contentment that only Christ can provide.

What You’ll Learn (Key Takeaways):

Why contentment is not the same as giving up on your desires

Although some thought Jesus overturned the Law of Moses, he insists that he has come to fulfil it. His teaching on the Law’s requirements sets a standard of righteousness that we fail to meet on our own—and so it shows us that we need to rely on him and his righteousness to be acceptable to the Father. At the same time, Jesus does mean to call us to live according to a radically high standard. This is only possible through the gracious work of his Spirit in us.

God wants us to know Him so much, He has given us a thorough look at His character—in His own words.

Knowing God not only brings you peace, joy, and contentment but also changes the nature of your existence and how you experience eternity.

Near the end of his life, the Apostle John, pastor of the church in Ephesus, wrote believers “a family letter” to teach them how to stand firm against heresy, to walk in the light, and grow closer to God. See how these principles still apply to us today.

Sermon Overview

Scripture Passage: Proverbs 17:17

One of the greatest and deepest needs we have as human beings is friendship. We all long for someone who knows, loves, and accepts us—someone who understands our wants, needs, hurts, and fears.

The Book of Proverbs is full of wisdom for making friends forever, and how to first be the friend we all need.

Proverbs 17:17 says, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”
