Psalm 90 is the oldest psalm in Scripture. It was by Moses. It is a famous passage because it is a vivid reminder that all of us will meet God. We spend our years, and then one day, our time on earth is finished. No second chances, no do-overs. How are you spending the life God entrusted to you? Are you ready to meet God when your earthly days come to an end?

(Haggai 1:8) Don't miss the present while you are lamenting your past. God has a work He wants you to do today and something He desires to do in the days ahead! Obey God and begin right where you are. (10049260226)
The episode walks through Haggai’s four dated sermons delivered over four months and highlights the main themes: the danger of waiting when God calls us to work; the trap of lamenting the past and missing present opportunity; the mistake of focusing only on the material and ignoring God’s supernatural provision; and the error of magnifying opposition while forgetting God’s presence and power.

God has given us one book that can change the entire direction of our lives: the Bible. In this episode of Journeying Through Scriptures, host Scott Pauley takes a big-picture look at the short but powerful Old Testament book of Habakkuk, tracing its message in the context of Judah’s looming captivity by Babylon and exploring how faith governs every area of life.
Scott explains the historical setting—Israel’s enemies and the coming Babylonian judgment—and introduces Habakkuk (whose name means "Embracer") as a godly prophet wrestling with difficult questions. The episode centers on the book’s key verse, Habakkuk 2:4 ("the just shall live by his faith"), and highlights how that truth reverberates through the New Testament (Romans, Galatians, Hebrews) and fueled the Reformation.
Listeners will hear the book’s spiritual progression: a sob of lament (chapter 1), a vision and call to patient waiting (chapter 2), and a climactic prayer-song of trust (chapter 3). Scott draws practical lessons: bring burdens to God in prayer, wait on the Lord, rehearse God’s character, and choose to rejoice even when circumstances remain unchanged. He points out how Christ’s presence and justification by faith are seen throughout Habakkuk.
The episode offers encouragement for anyone facing unanswered questions or national and personal crises—faith is the bridge from sorrow to praise. Scott also reminds listeners that the Word of God is meant to be walked through daily and points to ETJ’s online resources at etj.bible, where you can find book-by-book study aids to enrich personal Bible reading.
Expect thoughtful exposition, pastoral application, and a pastoral call to live by faith: talk to God, wait on His timing, and choose rejoicing. Join Scott Pauley as he moves from lament to worship and invites you to let God’s Word restore your song.

(Nahum 1:8-9) Ninevah, Take 2. This city shows us both God's mercy and God's judgment. We must choose which we want for our own lives and nation.
Although Nahum’s name means “comfort”, that comfort is found in trusting God amid judgment: those who know Christ can find refuge even when God’s wrath falls on the wicked. (10046260223)
