The apostle Paul set out on a mission when he wrote his epistle to the Colossians: It was all about Jesus Christ and guiding believers to love Him more. Paul offers much doctrine to help believers grow spiritually mature in the book of Colossians, which we’ll spend the next four weeks studying. This week we begin by examining Christ’s supremacy …
The Day of the Lord, the “man of lawlessness,” and widespread apostasy—there’s a lot going on in 2 Thessalonians! The apostle Paul had much to teach the Thessalonian church, but he offered great hope as he revealed God’s prophetic Word to them. After studying the false teaching influencing the Thessalonian believers on last week’s broadcast, we conclude our 3-part series …
The Thessalonians in Paul’s day were confused and troubled. Many of them had been led astray by false teachers who taught that the great and terrible Day of the Lord had already come. But since our understanding of God’s Word affects how we live, Paul knew he needed to teach the Thessalonians correct doctrine right away! In part 2 of …
You may have heard it said that as much as one-third of the Bible is prophecy. But this week, Chris challenges us to consider that the entire Bible is actually prophecy! We open a 3-week study on the book of 2 Thessalonians by taking a look at how persevering through persecution ties to prophecy. Paul begins his second epistle to …
Our series on Paul’s letter to the Romans in September covered the Jewish context of the epistle, atonement, Jesus’ righteousness, reconciliation, redemption, and the eternal security of our salvation. But Hamas’s brutal attack on Israel and the ensuing war interrupted our series in October, as information on the war took precedence in our broadcasts. This week, we put a bow …

In Romans 5:10, Paul shared this wonderful truth: “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.” In part 4 of our series on the book of Romans, Chris teaches the beauty …
The bad news: We owe a debt we could never pay on our own. The good news: Jesus’ righteousness paid our debt! In part 1 of our series on the book of Romans, we studied the Jewish people’s priority in understanding the gospel and God’s justice, and in part 2, we discovered how God provided a perfect blood sacrifice as …
Many Christians consider the book of Romans their favorite because of how clearly it teaches the gospel message. The apostle Paul presented the Good News wonderfully, teaching some fundamental truths about sin, sacrifice, and forgiveness. In part 2 of our series on Romans, Chris explores Paul’s teachings on the work of Christ and the Old Testament truths that inspired the …
Of all the people in the world, the apostle Paul said, the Jewish people need to hear the gospel most—but they also should understand God’s judgment better than all others. Paul used the phrase “to the Jew first and also to the Greek” several times in Acts, demonstrating the Jewish people’s central role in God’s plan of redemption. Chris begins …
We’re in the New Testament finding The Common Thread throughout the Bible and we’re answering the question, “How does God’s promise to Abraham in Genesis 12 bind the entire Bible together?” This week we learn how the Apostle Paul accomplished God’s plan to continue the “thread” to the Gentiles. Paul was called by God to be a missionary to the …
