The History of the World Through the Lens of Redemption Feb 15, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, Brody walks through the ways God has moved from the beginning of time to bring about His plan of salvation for all people. Despite their near constant rebellion, God chose to do this through the nation of Israel. Through this people group, He would bless all of the Earth. God was moving through their suffering, through their peace, all for the purpose of bringing salvation to the brokenness of the world.
God isn’t just God to the Israelites. We have a new covenant through which Jesus provides salvation for all nations. The early disciples did their part in this by working to fulfill the Great Commission. No matter what is going on in the world, the Gospel will never be quenched. It will endure no matter what.

No Sanity Stories | Salvation of a Buddhist Monk Feb 08, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, Brody talks with Jonathan Ballou, a missionary who serves in Thailand with his family. They discuss church planting, the importance of language learning, and following the leadership of the Holy Spirit in ministry. Jonathan also shares an incredible testimony of a young man named Pey, who used to worship Buddha while in training to be a monk. At age 14, Pey was captured and forced to join the militia and later faced execution for desertion. Listen to hear about how the Lord used capturing and imprisonment to display His grace in Pey’s life.
It can be hard for us to see that even in the darkest parts of the world the Gospel is advancing, but God is redeeming people from the most broken circumstances every day. The Gospel will prevail! We need to be believers who will take the light of the Gospel and shine it into those dark places. Pray and make an impact.

Why We Can Trust the Bible Feb 01, 2021

Show notes

What we do with the Word of God determines how we view Christ. In this episode, Brody discusses the reliability and authenticity of the Bible by walking through questions like how we got the Bible, why are there different translations, and what are the manuscripts of Scripture? In today’s world, there are constant attacks on Scripture, so we need to be confident in the authority of Scripture and know that it can be trusted.

God’s word is pivotal to how we approach both Christianity and life. It is sufficient to guide us through every circumstance. Take time to read the Bible and keep a high view of God’s Word. Let it shape your worldview and become the lens through which you view culture, sexuality, marriage, and every aspect of your life.

When Heroes of the Faith Fall Jan 25, 2021

Show notes

It is discouraging to see people we hold in high regard fall away from the faith. How do we recover when giants of the faith fall?

In this episode, Brody shares a time when someone he held highly fell away from the Lord, and he walks through how the believer should respond when this happens. There are faithful men and women who finish strong. When someone falls away, let’s allow it to refocus our mission.

You will not look back on your life and think you pursued the Lord perfectly. Hebrews 11 talks about men and women who weren’t close to perfect yet they were still found faithful. They had major failures in their lives, but God used them anyway.

When someone falls, intensify the fight. Refocus the mission. Pursue the Lord and proclaim the Gospel. We are called to persevere until the end. We will do it because He that is in us is greater. Let’s pick each other up and encourage one another. As we kick off a year that’s already been crazy, let’s continue in faithfulness to the Gospel.

Progressive Christianity, Nationalism, & the Hope that Outlasts them Both Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

Christians are falling into the trap of finding their identity in politics. Our hope should not be in the government or society but in Christ alone. Our role of being a citizen in the United States should never feel bigger or more pressing than our role of being a follower of Christ. To start off season two of NSR, Brody discusses the culture today by looking at the life of Daniel who shows us how to live in a world that is so divided.
Daniel is captured by the Babylonian Empire who hope to try to change his allegiance and teach him their ways. But Daniel resolved that he would not be reeducated or defiled but would remain faithful to Yahweh.

Though we live in this world, we cannot embrace its ways. The world will try to redefine what is just, right, and good. There is no way for believers to live at peace with the world. Jesus brought division and came to preach repentance, not a gospel that leaves us comfortable.

When we look at the craziness and instability of this world right now, we can know that Jesus is still on His throne. He is still in control and He will bring about justice for all people. God preserved Daniel and He will preserve us to advance the true cause of Christ to the very end. This world and all that it has to offer us is temporal. Don’t get caught up in the fray of it. The kings of this earth will rise and fall but only Jesus will last.

Paul's Last Words Dec 14, 2020

Show notes

Scripture is breathed out by God. God’s Word is alive and active. Some of Paul’s last words in the Bible point to this truth and emphasize it’s sufficiency. In today’s podcast, Brody looks at 2 Timothy 3:16-17 and points out 6 characteristics of Scripture from this text.

Listen in to learn why the Bible is such a critical part of our lives. The Word of God is always accurate and authoritative, and powerful to conquer strongholds in our lives. The Scripture teaches us how we’re to live our lives.

As Christians, we have the Spirit of God living within us. When we go to His Word, He will help us to understand it. God’s Word is meant to shape our lives and make us look more like Christ. His Word reproves and convicts us. We need the Word of God—our spiritual lives depend on it! Fight to spend time in the Word and pursue Christ daily.
