94: The Principle of Recalibration // Life Lessons 9 (Eric Ludy)
Speaker: Eric LudySeries: Life LessonsStudy: 9 – The Principle of Recalibration
This is the ninth installment in Eric’s series entitled Life Lessons. In this episode he addresses something that he refers to as sideways sanctification. Most Christians only think about either moving forward or backwards in their faith, but sometimes the correction that God needs to make in our life is not a forward or backward matter, but a side-to-side issue as we navigate the Narrow Way.

93: Psalm 16:4-6 (Philip Hartman)
In this mini-series, Philip Hartman expounds upon Psalm 16:4-6 – "Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god; Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, Nor take up their names on my lips. O LORD, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Yes, I have a good inheritance." Throughout the message, Philip talks about the significance of not having any idolatry in our lives and trusting in the provision and inheritance of our God.

92: The Principle of Gentleness // Life Lessons 8 (Eric Ludy)
Speaker: Eric LudySeries: Life LessonsStudy: 8 – The Principle of Gentleness
This is the eighth installment in Eric’s series entitled Life Lessons. In this episode he digs into what he calls the “upside down Kingdom.” Everything about Christ is seemingly backwards and wrong to this “politically correct” world in which we live. Gentleness is God’s opposite nature applied to the darkness, the filth, the rudeness, and the disdain of this lost world around us. And God desires to work this very gentleness into us and through us.

Speaker: Nathan JohnsonSeries: The Saga of Scripture (Bible Survey)Study: 5 – The Kingdom Rehearsed
After a hiatus, we jump back into the Bible Survey series called "The Saga of Scripture."

Starting with Moses and the Exodus, the giving of the Law, and the Hebrew culture, God declares the coming Kingdom by having the Israelites rehearse the truth and reality of the Gospel of Christ. Though it was in shadow and symbol, everything happening in the Old Testament is a bold declaration of the coming King and re-establishment of His Kingdom.
