Do you really believe that Jesus loves you and if so, does it matter?
Today, we are going to look at John 10:11-18 and read the parable of the Shepard and his sheep. I think this story is a love story from God to us; furthermore, it is a love that should have impact on us and others. Let's talk about it.

You can't share your faith unless you connect
Today, we turn our attention to Luke's 2nd sermon in the book of Acts. Therein, I think we get a masterful lesson on how to share faith through connection. Give a listen and see what I mean.

Three Results from the appearance of Jesus after His Resurection
Today's Bible Talks focusses on John 20:19-31 where Jesus shows up behind a locked door where his disciples cower in fear of the Jews who have just crucified their teacher. In these powerful verses, I see three results that Jesu offers as a result of what he says and does here. Those three results are: Believe, Receive, and Achieve. What? Well, give a listen and see what I mean.

Bible Talks: Do we ever deny Jesus like Peter?
Jesus told Peter that he would deny him three times. And here in the John 18, we see that come to fruition. Peter denied Jesus three times and then the rooster crowed. Why might have he done that? And more pointedly, might we ever do the same?

Bible Talks from John 12.12-16: 2 Practical Lessons from the Palm Sunday text
The crowds are casting palms and shouting "Hosanna, king of kings" and such as Jesus enters the city of Jerusalem. It's a parade. There is great excitement as he enters. The scene described by John is suggested to be the fulfilling of Old Testament prophecy and helps validate that Jesus is the promised Messiah. But, isn't it interesting out quickly things can change? Let's talk about it a little in this episode of the "Affirming Faith Podcast"

Bible Talks from John 12.20-32: Must I belittle myself to make God happy?
Today, we look at an illustration Jesus gives his audience regarding a grain of wheat. I think it is a beautiful illustration about him...and us. But, if one reads this passage without due diligence, it could lead one to believe that we have to "beat ourselves up," to be a follower of Jesus and be loved by Almighty God. Is that true? Let's talk about it today on this episode of the Affirming Faith Podcast.

Bible Talks from John 3.14-21: Encouragement in our Identity Trauma healing
If you are part of the LGBTQ+ community, regardless of your connection to the Evangelical church personally, I am sure you have heard all the stuff. We hear about abomination and burning in the pits of hell. And for some of us, it has resulted in a high level of Spiritual Trauma. I get it, I had to work on that heavily for a good portion of my life and now I help people almost daily do the same. But, I am excited about our text today. In this very familiar bit of Scripture, I think it helps us understand a lot about our relationship and future with the God of the Bible. And if you are a queer Christian, this one is for you.
Give it a listen and see what you think.

Bible Talks from John 2:13-22: 3 Degradations and why you might carer
The turning of the Temple tables by Jesus is a familiar to many people, even those not raised and educated within the church. In this Lenten text from John 2: 13-22 we see another version similar, but slightly different than that found in the synoptic gospels of Matthew and Mark. In this episode, I provide you my thoughts on book placement and thematic intent. But, most importantly, I suggest how we might apply it to our lives.

Bible Talks from Mark 8.31-38: Why I take comfort in Jesus' rebuking of Peter
Today's Bible Talks episode from the Gospel of Mark shares an interesting account where Jesus is teaching, Peter pulls him away to rebuke his future prediction, and in turn, gets rebuked by Jesus. Now, at first reading, this could be a very sad occurrence and to be honest, I kind feel bad for Peter. Truthfully, I would have probably thought the same thing if I were he. But, if we dig a little deeper, including using Scriptural context, then I think we can pull out, not only a helpful lesson, but even more importantly, an encouraging one.
