Our next installment of "What Did Jesus Mean By That?" is focused on a statement He makes in John 6, when He says, "I am the bread of life." Join us as we explore the meaning, and the implications of this statement by Jesus.

Do you ever find yourself struggling to commit to regular Bible study? Do you struggle to find it meaningful when you do read? Today’s episode is focused on how we can make the most of the time we spend in God’s Word. 

In our continued series on "What did Jesus mean by that?", we are taking a look at Matthew 10:34, when Jesus says he didn't come to bring peace, but a sword.

The church is full of imperfect people. And, that means there will be times when we are hurt by those we trust. Today's episode deals with this challenging topic.

In our ongoing series regarding some of Jesus’ more difficult statements, we look into one that is said on more than one occasion. “The first shall be last” … what did Jesus mean by that?

For whatever reason, Christianity has a reputation for being only about rules and what you can't do. But, we should be some of the most joyful, fun, people in the world, because we are recognizing the amazing gifts we have from God.

What did Jesus really mean when he said that his followers must "take up their cross"? We dig into that concept in this episode.

Jesus taught a lot of things during his ministry. But, he didn't always make everyone happy with what he had to say.

Jesus had many run-ins with those who viewed themselves as the gate-keepers of Israel.  And, it was rare that he found himself on what they believed to be the right side of the "rules."

As we continue to dive into who Jesus was, it's important that we acknowledge that not everyone was eager to follow Him. And, He didn't always make it easy to be his disciple.

We begin 2025 with a look into the life of Jesus, and consider some assumptions that many make about Him. Be sure to tune in and see what the Bible teaches us about who Jesus really was.

This week, we wanted to take a moment to consider what Jesus' birth brought into this world.

In our final installment of this series, we discuss loving those who are less than lovable.

We continue this series of episodes by considering another opportunity for us to love our neighbors. With the parable of the Good Samaritan as the background of our discussion, listen as we discuss loving those who don't believe what we believe.

A follow-up to last week's introduction to this series. Hopefully, this is especially pertinent this week!

There are a number of challenges to the second greatest command. We know first hand how hard it can be to love our neighbors at times. This week, and next week, we will deal with a challenge that is particularly relevant to today's Christians.

This week, we wanted to provide you with some information regarding a book that we both have read. Listen as we review this book that consists of a series of letters written to a college student by her father.

Anxiety is real, and it’s prevalent in the world in which we live. But, as we grow in our faith, we can find Biblical ways to help us deal with the anxieties of life. 

Is faith without logic? Does knowledge and reason override faith? Listen to this week's episode to see how faith and reason actually interact.
