Summer Series #9: Influencers for Jesus (Beatitude: Persecuted for His Name)
07/09/2026

Summer Series #5: Influencers for Jesus (Beatitude: Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness)
07/05/2026

To hunger and thirst after righteousness is to hunger and thirst after Jesus. David said in the Psalms, "As the deer pants for the waters, so my soul longs for Thee." To be hungry is to be in want or need. Does your heart long for Jesus? Do you desire Him above all else? In this episode, we learn what it means to hunger and thirst after Jesus, our righteousness.


Summer Series #4: Influencers for Jesus (Beatitude: Meekness)
07/04/2026

When Jesus said, "Blessed are the meek," He was honoring those who are not quick to pride or anger. Following Jesus requires humility, but not weakness. It takes strength to remain humble under pressure.


Summer Series #3: Influencers for Jesus (Beatitude: Mourn Over Sin)
07/03/2026

Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." What a wonderful promise. Influencers of Jesus do not celebrate in the sin of this world, but rather, they mourn over those who have lost their way and pray for those who don't know Jesus to come to know Him as their Lord and Savior.


Summer Series #2: Influencers for Jesus (Beatitude: Poor in Spirit)

#256: Praying the Bible (Ephesians 6:10-20: The Breastplate of Righteousness)
06/22/2026

In this Praying the Bible Episode, we learn about the second piece of the Armor of God: The Breastplate of Righteousness. The Devil will try to attack us by telling us we have sinned and are too far gone for God to rescue. But the Breastplate of Righteousness reminds us that we stand under the covering of Jesus' righteousness, not our own. Our own righteousness is as filthy rags, but Jesus' work on the cross gives us access to His righteousness that makes us right with God.

#247: Peter Denies Jesus (When Everything Seems Lost)
01/18/2026

Jesus prophesied that Peter would deny Him three times. Peter had promised to never deny Him....even unto death. Yet, just a short time later, Peter denied Jesus, not once, but three times, exactly as Jesus as prophesied. Thankfully, that was not Peter's last moment with Jesus. There would be a redemption coming, one made possibly by Jesus Himself. He is the God of the second chances!
