When I look at my Christian life, one of the most frustrating components is that I look so much like the world. I go to the movies, or go out to eat, or to different venues and I look so much like everyone else there. I wonder, If I call myself a Christian, am I to look any different than the world?

Join Michael Easley as he explores and explains Christian doctrine and theology in the first episode of this 14-episode series. This series was originally given to the students and faculty at Moody Bible Institute. You can review our full Sho

Can we walk out of the hand of God after we're secure in our salvation? Did Jesus' blood atones for the sins of everyone or just for a select group? What do you think of the trend of people "hearing from God?" Does God still speak to us? What do you think of Jephthah's vow, which ultimately led to the sacrifice of his

In his second letter, Peter warns believers not to let false teaching affect them. In fact, it can be considered a growing Christian's role to Be On Guard.

Consider the feeling of being in the Waiting Room. Maybe you're in pain, ill, or anxious. Perhaps the staff around you are stressed out or calloused. Maybe the actual room is less than comfortable. When we're sitting in a Waiting Room, we want or need help or answers, and we may not be able to get it - at least not in the timeline we'd prefer. What sort of people ought we be while we wait? In this episode Michael teaches from 2 Peter 3:8-13, where Peter addresses the imminent return of Christ and what

In 2 Peter Chapter 2, we studied a clear warning against false teaching and immorality.

We’re not teaching something new; rather we are re-educating, re-affirming, reminding, and teaching others who have yet to learn.” Peter has laid a foundation so far in 2 Peter 2. First, he concisely explained that false teachers spread destructive heresies even to the point of denying Christ. To that, we are to be both discerning and humble. Second, Peter explained their fate using the example

Judgment & Deliverance: Then & Now Peter explains God’s judicial dealings with three well known historical stories and reminds readers that God judges justly. He uses examples that his audience would've been familiar with to display both God's righteous judgment and God's deliverance of the righteous.
