252. Ten Commandments: Beyond A Ban on Murder (#6)

Sam and Will discuss the sixth commandment and its prohibition of murder. However, this commandment goes FAR beyond a ban on murder. This is God's declaration that ALL human life belongs to Him, and we all bear His image. This has tremendous implications for our lives.

251, Special: An Interview With My 9-Year-Old Daughter

In a special episode, Leah Kastensmidt interviews her dad with several questions about the Christian faith. With great confidence and a love for the Lord, this nine-year-old explores the faith with her dad.

250. Ten Commandments: More Than Just Honoring Parents (#5)

Sam and Laura discuss the significance of the 5th Commandment and God's call to honor our parents. This is the only commandment that comes with a promise. While we are certainly called to honor our fathers and mothers, this commandment goes far beyond that. We are called to honor all those in authority over us -- respecting the legacy and wisdom that we have inherited from our ancestors.

249. Ten Commandments: You Must Work, Rest, and Worship (#4)

Sam and Will discuss the fourth commandment and the beauty of the Sabbath. Embracing a day of rest may sound simple, but in a culture addicted to work and busyness, it requires our full commitment to truly stop and give our attention to the most sacred elements of our lives. Join us for an episode that promises to breathe new life into your weekly routine, nourishing your soul and redefining your relationship with work and rest.

248. Ten Commandments: Avoid Idolatry (#2) and Treasure God's Name (#3)

Sam and Will discuss the true meaning of the 2nd and 3rd commandments of God. We must reject idols because we become what we worship. Therefore, we should hold God as the highest beauty and the most precious Being in the universe. In doing so, we will naturally become like Him. And we should revere His name. The third commandment involves FAR more than just our words.

247. Ten Commandments: No Other Gods Before Me (#1)

Sam and Will discuss the importance of the Ten Commandments for both individuals and society. What happens when people abandon the universal and absolute nature of morality and truth? In short, nothing good. In His kindness, the Lord provides a roadmap for how He has designed the moral fabric of our universe.

246. Exodus 19: The Terrifying Mountain of God

Sam and Will discuss the Israelites' experience on Mount Sinai as God prepares to deliver the Ten Commandments and the Law. Why would God lead them to a desolate location and then provide a litany of terrifying sensory experiences? The Lord obviously wanted the people to respect His holiness, but why would a loving God want His people to fear Him? Is it possible that this was also driven by His grace?

245. Exodus 18: Moses Cannot Do This Alone!

Sam and Will discuss the kindness of God in sending Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, as a priest of Midian to relate to the burdens of leadership. Jethro will teach Moses that he cannot bear the burdens of leadership on his own, and he gives him a blueprint for leadership over the Israelites. Sam and Will also discuss the importance of sacrificial relationships in building our lives and our faith.

244. Exodus 17 - Quenching Your Thirst & Battling the Cursed

Sam and Will walk through Exodus 17 and discuss the grumbling of the Israelites. In this chapter, we find two events that anticipate the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Lord brings forth water from a rock, and then He shows the Israelites that they can find victory in battle when their champion Moses stretches out his hands atop a hill.

243. Exodus 16 - God Rains Bread from Heaven

Sam and Will discuss the stunning faithfulness of God in leading the Israelites into the barren Sinai wilderness. As the Israelites grumble, the Lord does not respond with punitive wrath or abandonment. He feeds them and requires them to rest. In the Gospels, Jesus will tell the crowds that HE is the true bread from heaven. What can we learn from this miraculous display?
