The Invitation of Suffering with Gil Wesley Dec 08, 2020

Show notes

It seems believers are often searching for practical ways to apply Scripture to their personal circumstances, asking questions like "I know Scripture says to trust God and to follow Him, but how do I do that practically in midst of my pain? My struggles? My trials?" Gil Wesley joins us again to share his practical experience of walking through unthinkable trials with God and coming out the other side––twice.

Lessons from Pain: 10 Questions with Gil Wesley Dec 01, 2020

Show notes

Gil Wesley joins Michael to answer our 10 Questions. "I had mistakingly believed that having a relationship with God was about belonging to the right team, thinking the right things about God and being able to articulate the right ideas, and then keeping a moral code. What I had to learn is that those are fine, but they can get in the way of the relationship." Show Notes: https://michaelincontext.com/lessons-pain/

Show notes

Last week we examined what the person and work of the Holy Spirit does, according to Scripture. This week: How is the person and work of the Holy Spirit described in the Word?

Benchmark 4: The Holy Spirit 101 Nov 10, 2020

Show notes

For many Christians, the person and work of the Holy Spirit remains mysterious at best and confusing at worst. That’s why it’s critical that our theology of the person and work of the Holy Spirit be clearly defined in Scripture. This episode begins a three-part study on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit.

Benchmark 3: A Psalm for Perspective Nov 03, 2020

Show notes

In this episode we take a look at a Psalm I have gone back to over and over throughout my walk with Christ: Psalm 90. This Psalm offers us: clarity that we are finite and need infinite help the encouraging reminder that God is eternal an example that shows us we can appeal to His lovingkindness to sustain us––and even to grant us otherworldly joy in all circumstances. Our experience cannot––and should not, ever––define our faith.
