Ep. 25 - The Bread of Life Mar 23, 2023

Show notes

Jesus made a number of enormous claims. Claims that if they’re not true, they’re absurd. And if they are true, they demand our attention and allegiance. Over the next eight weeks, we will be looking at Jesus’ “I Am” statements from the Gospel of John— some of His most significant claims. Our hope is that those of you who haven’t made up your mind about Jesus yet would see who He is and trust Him. And that those of you who already believe would be strengthened in your grasp of who Jesus is. Thanks for listening!

Ep. 23 - The Parable of the Talents Mar 02, 2023

Show notes

So we’ve looked at a number of His parables. Parables are extended analogies that help us understand a truth. And they can be categorized in a number of ways. Some are commentaries on the kingdom of God. Others communicate the ethic of the kingdom of God. Our last few have done that. For example, last week, in the parable of the Unforgiving Servant, we saw that in God’s kingdom, because we have been so generously forgiven by our King, it is not only appropriate but necessary for us to forgive others from our hearts. Some parables instruct us how to live. And all Jesus’ parables are meant to elicit a response in us. This week, we will close out this season on what Jesus taught by considering a parable that encourages us to live a certain way while at the same time offering some weighty truths about who Jesus is and what He will do. Today, we are looking at one final parable in Matthew 25:14-30— the Parable of the Talents. This parable teaches us that when Jesus returns, He will call us to account for how we have managed all that He has given us. As a result, we are to steward all that we are and all that we have for God’s kingdom and purposes. At the inevitable return of Christ, it will pay off!

Our goal in this season of the podcast is to continue to get to know Jesus better, and we are doing that over these next few weeks by asking, “What did He teach?” So we are looking at a number of His parables. Parables are extended analogies that help us understand a truth. As one author says, they are “stories with intent.” Last week, in the parable of the Good Samaritan, we saw that we are to love all people, especially those in need. Today, we will continue with our theme of life in the Kingdom as we consider the topic of forgiveness. In this episode we will see that in God’s kingdom, because we have been so generously forgiven by our King, it is not only appropriate but necessary for us to forgive others from our hearts.

Our goal in this season of the podcast is to continue to get to know Jesus better, and we are doing that over these next few weeks by asking, “What did He teach?” So we are looking at a number of His parables. Parables are extended analogies that help us understand a truth. As one author says, they are “stories with intent.” Our progression has been this: We started by seeing the treasure that the Kingdom of God really is, then we considered what the heart of God really is like, we looked at how to be made right with God and come back under His rule and into His Kingdom, and then last week, we made a shift toward some parables about the ethic of the kingdom. How life works in the kingdom of God. And we saw that we are to build our lives on the words of Christ. And we are to build our lives on prayer. We saw last week that we can come boldly and shamelessly to the Lord. Today, we will be in Luke 10:25-37, in one of the most famous parables, we will see what it looks like to live a life of love.

Today, we will be in Luke 11:1-13, considering what Jesus taught about prayer.

Ep. 19 - The Wise and Foolish Builders Feb 02, 2023

Show notes

We are continuing to get to know Jesus better as we start the new year, and we are doing that over these next few weeks by asking, “What did He teach?” So we will look at a number of His parables. Parables are extended analogies that help us understand a truth. As one author says, they are “stories with intent.” Our progression has been this: We started by seeing the treasure that the Kingdom of God really is (hidden treasure/pearl), then we considered what the heart of God really is like (prodigal son), then last week, we looked at how to be made right with God and come back under His rule and into His Kingdom (Pharisee and Tax Collector). Now, we are going to shift toward some parables about the ethic of the kingdom. How life works in the Kingdom of God. And we are going to do that by looking at the parable of the Wise and Foolish Builders in Matthew 7:24-27.

Ep. 18 - The Pharisee and Tax Collector Jan 26, 2023

Show notes

We are continuing to get to know Jesus better as we start the new year, and we are doing that over these next few weeks by asking, “What did He teach?” So we will look at a number of His parables. Parables are extended analogies that help us understand a truth. As one author says, they are “stories with intent.” Last week, we looked at the parable of the Prodigal Son. We saw in that parable that there are two kinds of lostness— outright rebellion and so-called righteous living that seeks to put God in our debt. We saw the need to return to God and to rejoice when others return to God. And perhaps most of all, we saw the heart of God. That parable shows us what God is actually like. He is a graciously extravagant Father, who rejoices when lost sinners come home. So that parable shows us in a way how God yearns for us to be right with Him. The parable we are looking at today shows us how that might happen; how we can be made right with God. We will be in Luke 18 looking at the story of the Pharisee and Tax Collector.
