422: Finding Peace in a Day of Panic May 18, 2026

Show notes

Hi, friend. I hope you’re doing well today. We’re in the midst of a series here on the podcast looking at occasions Jesus instructed us to not be anxious or afraid. Today we’re going to Matthew chapters 24 and 25, to the final week of Jesus’ life. He knows what awaits him, but his admonition to his disciples remains the same: Don’t be afraid.

421: From Despair To Hope May 11, 2026

Show notes

Hello, my friend. Thanks for joining me on the podcast today. There are few guarantees in life, but there is at least one thing that’s true for us all – life comes with storms. And where you turn your eyes when trouble comes makes all the difference.

420: The Deepest Problem of Man May 04, 2026

Show notes

Hi, friend. Thank you for joining me for another Encouraging Word. Today’s episode features a story found in Mark Chapter 2. Maybe you know it – it’s about a man who is unable to walk and goes to great lengths to be in the same room with Jesus. He wants to be healed. And he is, but that’s not really the point of the story.

419: Why Are You Afraid? Apr 27, 2026

Show notes

Hello, friend. I hope you’re doing well today. We’re beginning a new series of episodes this week, tackling the topic of fear. Fear comes up a lot in the teachings of Jesus. In fact, the most common command issued by Jesus is some version of “Do not fear.” Easier said than done, right? But with God’s help, it’s possible, my friend. You can fear less tomorrow than you do today.

418: The Greatest Idea in History Apr 20, 2026

Hello, friend. I hope you’re doing well today. This week on the podcast we’re wrapping up our series exploring the profound gift of God’s grace. If you’ve missed any episodes, I invite you to go back and catch up. My prayer is you will receive this great gift that meets your greatest need, and that you will learn what happens when graces reach into every part of your life. Let grace get you.

417: Coming Clean With God Apr 13, 2026

Show notes

Hello, my friend. We make mistakes, don’t we? We make stupid decisions, some of use more than others. We sin. And God, in his kindness, has given us a tool to deal with it. To resolve the regret or shame left behind by those bad decisions. He has given us confession.

416: No More Condemnation Apr 06, 2026

Show notes

Hello, friend. Thank you for joining me this week. If you’ve missed some episodes or are just tuning in for the first time, this is a great place to start. We’re talking about what happens when grace happens, something I didn’t fully understand until I was years into ministry. I pray you understand it today.

415: The First Step Toward Forgiveness Mar 30, 2026

Show notes

Hi, friend. Welcome to the Encouraging Word Podcast. This week’s episode brings us to a story you’ve probably heard; you may even hear it this Holy Week. In John chapter 13, we read about Jesus washing his followers’ feet. This passage is often referred to when teaching about service or humility. But it also offers something else very important—how to respond to someone who hurts you.

414: How You Can Know for Sure God Loves You Mar 23, 2026

Show notes

Hello, friend. Thanks for joining me. In today’s episode we see how God not only forgives us—every sin, even those we never know we commit—but also invites us into his family. You are more than forgiven, my friend. You are beloved.
