#299 "The Burden of Spiritual Leadership" (2 Corinthians 12:11-21)

#301 “The Road to Restoration Begins with Honest Examination” (2 Corinthians 13:5-14)

Have you ever asked, What is God’s calling on my life—and am I truly living it out? To be set apart means God has claimed you for His purpose—to live differently and boldly proclaim the gospel. Today in Romans 1:1, we’ll see what it means to be a servant, called and commissioned by Christ, and how that shapes our obedience today

#302 "Divinely Drafted: Paul’s Call and Commission" (Romans 1:1)

Have you ever experienced such strong emotions that sitting still became impossible? Something so important, so urgent, that you had to act? That’s the kind of passion Paul had for the gospel. In Romans 1:8–10, we’ll see what drove his relentless passion, gratitude, and calling to share the gospel.

#305 “When the Gospel Won’t Let You Sit Still” (Romans 1:8-10)

How do we build each other up in faith, like Paul talks about in Romans 1? He says he longed to be with other believers so they could mutually encourage each other’s faith. That hits home. When we show up and share the gifts God has given us, something powerful happens. We grow stronger—together.

#306 "Don’t Underestimate Your Faith" (Romans 1:11-15)

Have you ever met someone who thought they had it all figured out—always talking like a genius—yet their choices told a very different story? On today’s episode, we’re discussing how rejecting God’s truth results in spiritual blindness—even when someone thinks they are smarter than God. 

#313 “Smarter Than God?” (Romans 1:22)

What makes a person give up a real diamond in order to take a fake plastic one? Sounds crazy, right? But that’s what an ungodly person does. They often abandon the glory of their Creator for cheap imitation versions. In this episode, we will uncover the tragic pattern of idolatry, explore why it still tempts us today, and learn how to stand firm against it. 

#314 “The Great Exchange: From Creator to Counterfeit” (Romans 1:23)
