This message, taught by Micheal Davis, explores the sobering reality of Christian suffering as ordained by God. It challenges believers to see persecution and hardship not as purposeless trials but as sanctifying tools that glorify God and amplify the gospel. Anchored in Scripture, it reveals how suffering shapes our character, glorifies Christ through our endurance, and spreads the message of hope to the lost. Despite the weight of suffering, the message concludes with the ultimate hope of eternal glory, where every trial will be overshadowed by the unending joy of union with Christ.

James 1:19-26 Greek deep dive!

In this episode, we confront the challenging yet crucial question: how should Christians approach voting? Many believers struggle with connecting their faith to civic responsibilities, especially in a culture that insists on keeping spirituality separate from public life. We’ll dive deep into Romans 13, exploring Paul’s teachings on authority and what it means to submit to God’s design for governing structures. By examining historical examples—like the early Church’s stand against infanticide and the Reformers’ stance on biblical truth—we’ll build a compelling case for why voting isn’t merely a civic duty but a profound act of faith.

This conversation isn’t about partisan politics; it’s about aligning our choices with biblical convictions, upholding life, justice, and truth as ambassadors of Christ in a broken world. If you’ve ever wrestled with the idea of voting as an extension of your faith, this episode will offer perspective, guidance, and a call to bold, unwavering commitment to God’s truth in every area of life.
