In this second part of our lesson from Jeremiah 6:16, I dig deep into what it means to walk the "ancient paths" and why that matters now more than ever. We explore the value of preserving the original pattern of New Testament Christianity, not out of nostalgia, but because we believe God's design is timeless and perfect. I talk about the importance of distinctiveness in a world full of spiritual alternatives, the quiet danger of drifting from the truth, and why our congregation aims to be a rare, unwavering light in our community. Through stories, personal reflection, and scripture, I share our mission to pass down an unaltered faith, like a family heirloom too precious to modify. This episode is about more than church tradition, it's a passionate call to stay grounded, to teach the next generation with intentionality, and to remain a Bible-first people. If you've ever wondered why we do what we do, or if you're feeling the tug of modern shifts in faith, this is a message for you. We’re not trying to reinvent Christianity, we’re trying to live it as it was given.

In this episode, I invite you to reflect on a deeply personal and countercultural conviction: the power and beauty of preserving the original message of Christ. Drawing from Jeremiah 6:16, we talk about what it means to seek the "ancient paths" in a world that glorifies innovation, modernization, and spiritual flexibility. We explore why our community deliberately resists the trend of constant change in favor of spiritual conservatorship protecting and honoring the blueprint God delivered once for all.

I liken our approach to that of a museum curator entrusted with a masterpiece, something priceless, sacred, and not to be altered. Whether it's the Mona Lisa or your grandmother’s wedding ring, we wouldn’t dream of “updating” a treasure. So why do it with God’s word?

From biblical examples like Uzzah and Nadab to contemporary trends in soft preaching and entertainment-focused worship, I break down how deviation; however well-intentioned, can move us further from God, not closer. This isn’t about being different for its own sake; it’s about being faithful. Join me as we recommit to the straight and narrow path, not blending in, but boldly standing out, rooted in scripture, transformed by truth, and devoted to honoring the original design.

In this episode, we take a heartfelt look at the power of last words, specifically those of King David, recorded in 2 Samuel 23. There’s something about a person’s final words that strips away pretense and brings clarity to what truly mattered in their life. As we walk through David’s poetic farewell, we reflect on how he defines a good life, not by power, wealth, or victory, but by his unwavering relationship with God. David, a man after God’s own heart, leaves behind more than a legacy, he leaves a blueprint for a meaningful life rooted in righteousness, leadership, and eternal hope.

We explore how godly leadership impacts everyone around us, why integrity matters more than accolades, and how we can recalibrate our definitions of success. Whether you're a parent, a church leader, or someone just trying to live faithfully, David’s final words challenge us to think deeply about what we’re building, our image in this world, or our identity in God. And when it’s our time to look back, what will we have to show? Join me for this sobering, yet hopeful lesson about priorities, purpose, and what really lasts beyond this life.

In this episode, we invite you into a deep, raw, and hopeful journey through one of Scripture’s most shocking stories of failure and forgiveness, David at his lowest. We often remember David as the shepherd boy who slew Goliath, the psalmist, the king after God’s own heart. But today, we explore a different side: the broken man who committed adultery, arranged a murder, and tried to cover it all up. And yet, in the face of such darkness, God forgave him.

Drawing from 2 Samuel 12 and Psalm 103, we talk about how David’s repentance opened the door to divine mercy and what that means for us, especially when we feel too far gone. We’ll see how God's justice and righteousness are not threats, but instruments of His compassion, and how His forgiveness doesn’t just patch us up, it completely restores us.

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt the weight of guilt or the lie that they’re beyond redemption. Spoiler: you’re not. David’s story, Paul’s story, your story, they all point to the same truth: God’s forgiveness is greater than our worst sin. Let’s walk through that hope together.

In this episode, we move beyond the first steps of becoming a Christian to explore what it really means to live as one. I walk through ten essential principles from loving like Christ and remaining faithful to His teachings, to cultivating persistent prayer and enduring life’s inevitable trials. Living Christianity isn’t about checking boxes or chasing warm feelings; it’s about a life deeply rooted in love, discipline, and service. We talk about the danger of comparisons, the power of consistent community, and the challenge of walking the narrow road with sincerity and humility. This isn’t a call to perfection, but to persistence. Along the way, I challenge you to sharpen your spiritual focus, serve others humbly, and prepare for eternity not as a distant reward, but as your true home. Whether you're freshly baptized or decades deep in your journey, this message is a heartfelt reminder: living Christianity is about becoming the kind of person who naturally belongs in heaven.

Let's explore something foundational: how to become a Christian. In this episode, I lay out a simple, biblical path, not my opinion, not tradition, but the original first-century model straight from Scripture. I take you through the essential steps: hearing the Word, believing in Christ, not just historically but personally, repenting of sins, confessing Jesus as Lord, and being baptized. Each of these is a call to personal transformation.

We also confront common misconceptions: that belief alone is enough, or that repentance can be passive. Christianity, I argue, isn’t about perfection or just professing faith, it’s about loyalty, persistence, and making Jesus truly Lord of your life. From Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch to Paul’s words in Romans and Corinthians, I walk through verse after verse to help anyone asking, “What must I do to be saved?”

If you’ve ever wondered what it really means to become a Christian, or how to help someone else begin that journey, this lesson is for you. It's not flashy. It’s not modernized. But it’s the truth as taught from the very beginning.

In this episode, I unpack what it really means to love God genuinely, deeply, and obediently. The world often tries to dismiss faithful obedience as legalism, but we challenge that idea head-on. Just like loyalty matters in marriage, parenting, and work, it matters even more in our relationship with God. Drawing from John 14:15 and 1 John 5:2-3, we look at how true love for God is never just a feeling or a statement it’s action. It's surrender. It’s joyful obedience.

I explore how the erosion of faith usually starts subtly, through culture, compromise, or even close companions, and I remind us that God’s boundaries are blessings, not burdens. This isn’t about fear; it’s about faithfulness. It’s not about rigid rule-following, but about honoring the One we love. We dig into what it means to walk the narrow path in a world that calls compromise clever. And we land on this truth: persistence in faith, not perfection, is what keeps us close to God.

If you’ve ever felt the tension between grace and obedience, between culture and conviction, this conversation is for you. Real love obeys and obedience, when born from love, becomes our greatest joy.

In this episode, I explore the powerful story of Naaman and Gehazi to unpack the contrast between true godliness and the deception of shallow religion. Naaman was a high-ranking military leader, admired and successful but he was also a leper. His healing journey reminds us that God's way often defies human expectations, demanding humility over pride, obedience over spectacle. Naaman had to let go of his ego and dip seven times in a river that, to him, seemed beneath his station. But when he surrendered to God’s will, he received healing far beyond the physical.

In contrast, Gehazi, who should have known better, allowed greed and compromise to steal his blessing. Despite being in the inner religious circle, his heart wasn’t truly surrendered to God. This episode calls us to ask: are we living out a faith that looks godly or one that is godly?

God’s plan may seem simple, even odd, but it’s the only way to true transformation. Whether you’re at a crossroads in life or needing a reminder of why humility matters, this message challenges you to surrender, trust, and follow the shape God wants for your life.
