You’ve Got This (You Really Do!)

The premise of this PODCAST is simply this:

The Christian life is not that complicated.

I would humbly suggest that from a purely biblical point of view, vibrant, dynamic, victorious Christian living is a pretty straightforward proposition.

Despite all of the endless books, sermons, lessons, blogs that load up a believer with their own unique lists of spiritual disciplines—each of which we MUST each incorporate into our daily lives in order to please God—I would humbly suggest that vibrant, dynamic, victorious Christian living can be summed up in one word.

One word that flows right out of Galatians 1:10.

All courtesy of Peter, of course.

“Prone to Leave the God I Love”

What you are about to hear in this PODCAST is Peter’s most powerful appeal. One born in Peter’s greatest failure.

It is true that our most powerful life-message comes not out of our spectacular successes, but rather out of our epic failures.

So be encouraged.

Knocked Down, But NEVER Knocked Out

As you will hear in this PODCAST, Peter will write this extraordinary sentence:

“In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.”

Trials, I will remind you, that cost Peter’s readers everything.

How did they do it? How was it possible for them—How is it possible for us?—to rejoice when they/we are experiencing the crushing weight of heavy-hearted emotion?

You are only 45 minutes away from knowing the answer.

“We Must Never Forget…”

 

What perfect timing!!! This PODCAST coming not a moment too soon!

Last week you might remember, I referenced the fact that so many of our precious Safe Haven family—You, not to put too fine a point on it—are going through profoundly challenging and difficult times.

Well guess what? In God’s perfect timing, that just happens to be the theme of 1 Peter.

“God’s Sustaining Strength Through Our (Your!) Sustained Sufferings.”

Be it physical, mental, emotional, relational, or spiritual—I know that many of us come stumbling into Safe Haven on a Saturday night, or click the link to this podcast—some of us feeling as though we are teetering on the breaking point.

Here is what I want you to hear: So did Peter’s original readers. This is a letter written specifically to them/to us/to you!

Get this: In the five short chapters that make up this beloved little letter, Peter will reference the suffering of his readers (including you!) 16 times.

“God’s Sustaining Strength Through Our (Your!) Sustained Sufferings.”

By way of this podcast, welcome to Peter’s world.

A (Not-So) Silent Saturday

It is one of the most enigmatic statements in all of Scripture.

Ironically, as you are about to hear in this PODCAST, this mysterious statement follows one of the clearest, most-unambiguous and glorious proclamations in all of Holy Writ.

Two statements: one perplexing, one perfectly understandable, both written by our old friend Peter.

Timely statements each, given that the Easter season is upon us.

Two statements that beg us to answer two compelling questions:

1. Where did Jesus go during the hours between Friday night and Sunday morning?

2. What did Jesus do during those hours between His crucifixion and resurrection?

My friends, you are about to hear an amazing story seldom talked about precisely because it is so enigmatic—“difficult to interpret or understand; mysterious.”

Words that, when understood properly, bless our lives immeasurably.

You are in for an Easter treat.

The Forgotten Half of THE Greatest Story

Today is Easter Sunday.

BUT, as you are about to hear in this PODCAST, today is infinitely, eternally so much more than that.

A day of incomparable significance. 

“Christ IS risen. He is risen INDEED.”

But that is only half the story.

Ready to hear the other half?
