“I Will be Your Sanctuary!”

Well, it isn’t pretty. But this PODCAST is enormously encouraging.

Recorded in the privacy of my home (as I hunker down under a mandatory “shelter in place” order), as you will hear, we are BACK IN THE BOOK OF ACTS!!! (Three cheers for that!)

Cumbersome as it may be to record this without the benefit of a “live” audience, I’ll do my best to deliver you brand new, delightfully fresh, intensively insightful content each week as we work our way ever so slowly but surely through Paul in High Definition.

Enjoy!!!

“Wonderful Joy Ahead!”

As you will hear in this PODCAST, how ironic that Peter should invoke this image, and we discuss it, on the evening of the Winter Solstice, 2019.

As we bring the lovely little letter called 1 Peter to a close, you are in for copious amounts of much-needed encouragement.

Bethany–The House Where God Turns Our Sorrows into Sweetness

For reasons that you will hear in this PODCAST, this past week has arguably been the single most emotionally-challenging period in my precious bride’s and my 43 years of marriage.

Consequently, in God’s good providence, Peter’s words in 1 Peter 3 came at just the right time.

For my family.

And very possibly, for yours.

Enjoy.

Like a City Set on a Hill

I don’t usually give you the takeaway of a lesson up front, preferring to spring it on you at some point unexpected in each lesson.

But as you are about to hear in this PODCAST, given the fact that there are two takeaways tonight, I’ll give them to you upfront, at the very beginning.

Takeaway #1. You really are some-one and some-thing special.

Takeaway #2. Jesus truly is gentle, and His burden really is light.

Meaning that we have one singular sublime and simple purpose.

Meaning that victorious, effective, God-pleasing Christian living is not difficult, nor is it complicated.

If you are ever tempted to feel as though the Christian life is a heavy burden, then this is for you!

The Wall That Wails No More

Here’s the thing: As you are about to hear in this PODCAST, at precisely 6:13 this past Monday morning, I had an epiphany.

Fact is, between last Saturday night and Monday morning, I was stymied by one perplexing question:

“Here in 1 Peter 2, why in the world didn’t Peter use the word for stones that is his name? Petros?”

Or to put that another way,

“Why did Peter here in 1 Peter 2 use the word for stones, Lithos?

They are, after all, synonyms—Petros and Lithos—at least in English. Both are translated “stone.” So why didn’t Peter refer to himself—and to you and me—as a Petros? Why a Lithos?

Oh, my friends, the answer to that question is breathtakingly beautiful. Beautiful indeed.

As are you!
