James: How to Live Steadfastyly for Jesus

3/11/2024

0 Comments

 
The Book of James...the 59th book in the Bible. It is a hard hitting book written to help Christians live steadfastly for Jesus. Doug Edwards wrote a commentary on this book for the "Contending for the Faith" commentary series. He also preached six expository studies on James recently at the Valley Parkway Church of Christ. During that meeting, he sat down with PSB to discuss this short epistle. This multi-episode series takes the listener on a journey to better understand and value this wonderful book.

Let's Talk ABout Porn & the Church

3/4/2024

 In the fall of 2023, I (Jonathan) had the privilege of being interviewed by Aaron Battey (www.fiveminutebiblestudy.com) as a part of his 30-day effort to help equip Christians against pornography. Aaron graciously allowed me to repost the interview for my PSB listeners. This is a necessary and direct conversation. It is not flippant nor crass, but parents may want to listen to it before allowing little ears to hear. I leave it to you, dear listener, to use wisdom and discretion.

Redeeming the Time

2/19/2024

Paul tell Christians to "Redeem the Time" which means to buy it back, use it well, guard it wisely. Paul also got a lot done and used his time well, and he said, “imitate me as I imitate Christ.”
That’s our goal. If we follow the example of Jesus, who used His time better than anyone, we’ll be able to do just that.
Join guest Jeremy Hykel and Jonathan as they discuss the Scriptures around Ephesians 5:16 and the challenging discipline of redeeming time. ​

Unleashing Prayer Power

2/5/2024

0 Comments

 
Do you know how much you benefit from prayer? The Apostle Paul knew! In seven of his fourteen NT letters, he asked (even begged)  for brothers and sisters to pray for him. The Apostle Paul believed in prayer power. Prayer IS the ultimate power source because we connect with the greatest of all powers–Almighty God! We have access to great power BUT we must stay plugged in. Join Brett Hickey and Jonathan as they discuss how Christians can unleash prayer power.

Training for Transformation

1/22/2024

0 Comments

 
In the same way that endurance runners train to transform themselves for a long distance race, so Christians ought to train for kingdom running. We don't read the Bible to check off a list, we read to be spiritually transformed. We don't pray because it's on a TO-DO list, we pray to draw nearer to God. To be a disciple of Jesus is to be a practitioner in the *discipline.* How can we do that? This miniseries is a "riff session" with Kevin Fox and Jonathan Edwards on the powerful metaphor of running and Hebrews 12.

Elevating Jesus and encouraging faithfulness...don't you want to do that as often as you can?

Let's consider Hebrews 12 together!

You don't always have the power to control, but you always have the choice to surrender...This series features Brandon Young and a conversation about how we struggle to control so much in our lives when what we ought to focus on is surrendering more to the will of God.

Voices and Choices

When it comes to spiritual advice and council, who do you listen to? It seems like there are more and more voices crying out with supposed wisdom. So many voices…So many choices…Who should we listen to? Whose advice should we take? What counsel should we heed… what others should we ignore? Which path should do we choose? Join guest Todd Richardson and Jonathan as they engage in a Bible discussion about the voices when listen to and the choices they influence us to make.
