688// The Day That Changed Everything: Witnessing the Impossible in Mark 16
In this powerful episode, we explore the final chapter of the Gospel of Mark, where everything changes. The story begins with Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome courageously going to anoint Jesus’ body, only to find the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. An angelic messenger announces the impossible: Jesus has risen. This moment marks a turning point not only in their lives but for all humanity.
We discuss the significance of the women as the first witnesses, the cultural implications of their role, and how their fear and awe reflect the weight of the resurrection. We also explore Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances, His rebuke and commissioning of the disciples, and the signs that would accompany those who believe. Through this lens, we reflect on what it means to embrace resurrection hope, to move beyond fear, and to fulfill the Great Commission with boldness and faith.

686// When Jesus Broke All the Barriers: What the Tearing of the Veil Means for You: Mark 15:21-47
In this episode, we dive into the powerful moments surrounding Jesus’ death and burial, unpacking themes of faithfulness, sacrifice, and courage. We look at the symbolic tearing of the temple veil and the surprising confession of the Roman centurion, who acknowledges Jesus as the Son of God. This moment marks a new era of access to God, where barriers are removed, and everyone is invited into His presence.
Through the actions of the women who stood by the cross and Joseph of Arimathea, who boldly requested Jesus’ body, we see examples of loyalty and devotion, even in times of grief and danger. These stories encourage us to remain faithful in our own lives, especially when standing up for our beliefs may come at a cost.
Join us as we reflect on how these moments can inspire us to take bold steps of faith, embrace the freedom Jesus’ sacrifice offers, and live with purpose beyond the need for approval from others.

686// Are You An Approval Addict? So Was Pilate. How Mark 15 Shows Us Why That is Dangerous
In today’s episode, we explore Mark 15 and uncover the dangers of prioritizing people’s approval over staying true to our purpose. We see how even a powerful figure like Pilate was influenced by the pressure of the crowd, ultimately leading to devastating consequences. This passage challenges us to examine where we may be seeking approval at the expense of our true calling and purpose. Are we willing to stand firm in what we know is right, even if it means going against the tide of popular opinion?

684// Awake or Asleep? The Call to Stand with Christ in Mark 14: 32-52
In this episode, we are studying the powerful scene in Gethsemane, where Jesus faces intense sorrow and anguish. As the reality of His sacrifice looms closer, Jesus prays fervently, wrestling with the cup He must bear. We explore how Jesus’ humanity shines through His request to “take this cup,” yet ultimately surrenders with the words, “Not my will, but yours be done.” Alongside this, we witness the disciples’ struggle to stay awake, a reminder of our own human frailty and need for spiritual vigilance. This journey through Gethsemane reveals profound insights into obedience, surrender, and how to stay faithful in the darkest moments.

In this episode, we explore the deeply emotional and symbolic moments of Jesus’ Last Supper with His disciples, as recorded in Mark 14:12–31. This passage isn’t just a historical account but a powerful narrative that reflects foreknowledge, betrayal, and sacrificial love.

We also reflect on Peter’s bold promises of loyalty and his later denial, challenging us to confront our own faithfulness when tested.

We’ll uncover how Jesus called His disciples to be alert, discerning, and active in sharing the gospel—truths that are still vital for believers today.

In this episode, we dive into the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and faith. With so many fears and uncertainties surrounding AI, we explore how technology can be used to deepen our relationship with God rather than replace it. Is AI a threat to our beliefs, or can it be a tool for spiritual growth? We’ll also unpack some myths about AI, offer practical ways to use AI in Bible study, and discuss what it means to trust God in a digital world.
Key Points:

• Busting myths: AI is not replacing faith, but it can aid in the journey.
• A reminder that God remains sovereign, no matter how advanced technology becomes.
Why This Episode Matters:
AI is becoming an unavoidable part of life, but many Christians are unsure how to navigate it without compromising their beliefs. This episode provides clarity and reassurance, offering faith-based insights into the role AI can play in our spiritual practices.

In this episode, we are studying Mark 12:18-27, where Jesus confronts the Sadducees, a group that denies the resurrection. They challenge Him with a hypothetical scenario about marriage in the afterlife, but Jesus reveals a deeper truth about the resurrection and the power of God. This discussion calls us to move beyond earthly assumptions and invites us into a hope that transcends death.
This episode is an invitation to place our hope in God’s promises and trust that His power is greater than anything we face, even death. Jesus’ words challenge us to see life with a heavenly perspective, anchored in faith and love.

677// Render Unto Caesar: Perspective for Christians on Politics and Taxes From Mark 12:13-17
In today’s episode, we dive into Mark 12:13-17, where Jesus brilliantly navigates a trap set by the Pharisees and Herodians. This passage offers insight into the tension between earthly responsibilities and spiritual devotion. Jesus’ response, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s,” goes beyond taxes—it challenges us to evaluate where our ultimate allegiance lies.
In a world full of political debates and societal expectations, this passage is a reminder that our ultimate hope and identity lie in God’s kingdom. Jesus teaches us how to balance earthly responsibilities without losing sight of our spiritual calling. This conversation is especially relevant today, encouraging listeners to evaluate where they place their trust and allegiance.

676// Rejected and Redeemed: God’s Plan Behind Life’s Setbacks: Mark 12:1-12
In this episode, we explore the Parable of the Tenants in Mark 12:1-12. Jesus uses this allegory to challenge the religious leaders of His time, exposing their rejection of God’s prophets and foreshadowing His own death. Through this story, we unpack how God’s kingdom operates in humility and service, contrasting it with worldly power structures. Jesus shows that God’s victory isn’t about triumph through force but through surrender and sacrifice.
Key Points:
• The Parable of the Tenants reflects Israel’s rejection of God’s messengers and the coming rejection of Jesus.
• Jesus challenges worldly power structures by showing that God’s kingdom is built on humility and service.
• We unpack the contrast between earthly kingdoms and God’s kingdom, urging listeners to keep their hope anchored in Jesus.

675// Did Jesus Have Temper Tantrums? The Truth About Empty Religion: Mark 11:12-33
In this episode, take a look at an often misunderstood scene in Mark’s Gospel—Jesus cursing the fig tree and His bold cleansing of the temple. We’ll explore the deeper meaning behind these actions and how they expose fruitless faith and broken religious systems. Discover why Jesus didn’t just cleanse the temple but condemned its entire operation and how this applies to the way we practice faith today.
We also look at His teaching on prayer and forgiveness, understanding how faith enables us to move mountains, both spiritual and personal. Join us as we unpack these powerful messages and challenge ourselves to examine the fruit in our own lives.
Key Points:
• The Symbolism of the Fig Tree: Why Jesus cursed a fig tree out of season and what it reveals about empty religion.
• Jesus Cleanses the Temple: More than a reform, Jesus’ actions signaled the end of the temple’s role as the center of worship.
• Faith that Moves Mountains: What it means to pray with faith and let go of bitterness through forgiveness.
• Authority Challenged: The priests and elders confront Jesus, revealing their fear of losing control and their lack of understanding of God’s authority.

674// Jesus Isn’t Running for Office: Why Politics Can’t Save Us: Mark 11:1-11
In this episode, we explore the significance behind Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, a moment celebrated by the crowds yet misunderstood at its core. Journey with us through Mark 11:1–11 as we unpack the cultural, prophetic, and spiritual meaning of this moment. Why did Jesus ride a colt? What did the people expect from Him? And how do we respond when God’s plans don’t align with our expectations? What is the connection to our modern political climate? We reflect on how this story challenges our modern ideas of success, power, and humility, drawing lessons for our personal faith journeys today.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• The symbolic meaning behind Jesus riding a colt and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy.
• The tension between the crowd’s expectations and Jesus’ mission to bring peace rather than political victory.
• How Jesus’ silent inspection of the temple reveals His intentionality and discernment.
• The relevance of this story for our personal journeys—how we respond when God’s plans differ from our desires.
• Why spiritual greatness looks more like humility and service than power and position.
Scripture Reference:
• Mark 11:1–11
Key Takeaways:
• God’s Kingdom is different—it’s built on humility, peace, and service.
• Our expectations vs. God’s plan: Sometimes we need to surrender our agendas to align with God’s will.
• Moments of reflection matter: Just as Jesus paused to inspect the temple, we need to pause and discern before taking action.
• Discipleship involves humility: Jesus came not to conquer politically, but to save spiritually.

672// Why Being Good Isn't Good Enough: The Truth in Mark 10
In this episode, we discuss a conversation with Jesus that can sometimes be pretty challenging to hear. He meets a rich young man eager to inherit eternal life. When Jesus responds by asking him to sell all he has and give to the poor, the man walks away sorrowfully. Why is it so difficult for the rich to enter the kingdom of God? What does this passage teach us about wealth, sacrifice, and true discipleship? Join us as we unpack the lessons from Mark 10:17-31, including Jesus’ profound statement, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” We’ll also discuss how Peter’s declaration of leaving everything for Jesus prompts us to reflect on our own journey of faith, sacrifice, and rewards in the kingdom of God.
Key Points:
• The rich young man’s question: “What must I do to inherit eternal life?”
• Jesus’ response and challenge to sell everything and give to the poor.
• Why wealth can be a spiritual obstacle and the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ call to radical sacrifice.
• The disciples were amazed at Jesus’ teaching and their concern, “Who then can be saved?”
• Jesus’ assurance that with God, even the impossible becomes possible.
• Peter’s declaration of leaving everything behind and Jesus’ promise of rewards, along with persecutions.
• The deeper meaning of “The first will be last, and the last first.”

671// Is Divorce A Sin? The Answer May Surprise You
In this episode, we dive into Mark 10:1-16, where Jesus addresses the difficult topic of divorce, marriage, and what it means to approach the Kingdom of God like a child. In response to the Pharisees' trap regarding the legality of divorce, Jesus challenges the very foundation of their question by focusing on God’s original intent for marriage. He also emphasizes the importance of caring for children, showing that the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are dependent, humble, and trusting.
We explore the heart issues behind broken relationships and how the hardness of the heart contributes to the breakdown of marriages. While divorce is often a painful reality, we focus on God’s grace and healing for those who have experienced it, especially when divorce is not their choice. We also discuss the importance of approaching the Kingdom of God with a childlike faith—dependent and receptive.
Whether you’ve walked through the pain of divorce, know someone who has, or want to understand God’s heart for marriage and children, this episode offers insights into Jesus’ teachings that still resonate today.
**Key Points**:
- Jesus responds to the Pharisees' question about divorce by redirecting their focus from legalism to God’s original design for marriage.
- Divorce, Jesus says, stems from hardness of heart, but God’s grace extends to those who have been hurt by the breakdown of relationships.
- Jesus elevates the role of children, emphasizing that the Kingdom of God belongs to those who approach it with humility, dependence, and trust.
- The importance of receiving the Kingdom of God "like a child" and the challenge of applying this childlike faith to our adult lives.
- Practical reflections on how the church can support those impacted by divorce and strengthen families.
CALL TO ACTION: Start down the path of healing today.
