A job can be more than a paycheck. It can provide dignity, create opportunities, and open doors for meaningful change in someone's life.

For April Tam Smith, that belief inspired an unconventional approach to generosity: creating a restaurant that serves great food while giving people who need it most a second chance.

April and her husband, Graham, are co-founders of P.S. Kitchen, a nonprofit restaurant in New York City's Times Square. Alongside a group of like-minded partners, they've built a business that combines hospitality, employment opportunities, and charitable giving.

Does God’s grace mean you can live however you want? The same grace that frees us from guilt and condemnation never gives us permission to indulge the desires of the flesh. Join Pastor Jeff Schreve as he exposes the danger of distorted grace and shows why true Christian freedom leads to joyful obedience, not continued bondage to sin. Discover the freedom Christ gives you to say no to sin and yes to a life that honors Him.

Does God look down the corridor of time to discover new information about the future? Today, R.C. Sproul disproves this misunderstanding and presents what the Bible actually teaches about divine foreknowledge.

If God truly loves us perfectly, then He must perfectly hate our sin. In Exodus 34, see Jehovah—“merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands”—make another covenant with His people. God reminds the children of Israel that He did not save them because they were superior, but because He loves and cares for them as a jealous God.

As a Christian, what kind of battle can you expect to wage against sexual sin? Pastor Colin talks about the expectations we find in the Bible and some reasons for hope.

HEBREWS SERIES

Some people are lost far from God. Others are lost while surrounded by the things of God.

Teaching from Luke 15, Dr. Michael Youssef unpacks Jesus’ parable of the lost coin and exposes the danger of careless, self-righteous religion that overlooks spiritually lost people. God, however, does not overlook them.

Like the woman who lights a lamp, sweeps the house, and searches carefully until the coin is found, God’s love is active and purposeful. His Word brings light, His grace pursues the lost, and Heaven rejoices when one sinner turns back in repentance.

Mark 1:1–13 When the world grows dark, advice isn’t enough—only genuinely good news will do. Before Jesus began His public ministry, God sent John the Baptizer into the wilderness to prepare the way for exactly that kind of news. Pastor Chuck Swindoll walks through Mark 1:1–13, pausing at three defining moments: Jesus’ baptism, the Father’s voice of approval, and the temptation in the wilderness. Each one reveals the Servant’s identity and His readiness for ministry. Take hold of the good news that the Son of God stepped into human history for you. He faced Satan’s worst and emerged victorio...

Do you ever feel like you have to perform well enough to keep God’s love and acceptance? Legalism traps us in an exhausting cycle of trying harder, measuring ourselves, and wondering if we have done enough. In this message, Pastor Jeff Schreve reveals how grace frees us from the “performance treadmill” and teaches us to serve God from acceptance rather than for acceptance. Stop trying to earn what Jesus has already secured for you and start walking in the freedom of grace.

History is full of people who suffered simply for following Jesus. Revelation reveals a vision of Babylon drunk with the saints' blood—the religion of the Antichrist. In this message, Pastor Lutzer reveals why false religion turns so brutal. Why would the Antichrist destroy the very religion that helped him rise to power?
