In this episode, we will recap what Biblical financial stewardship looks like, and then we will address questions such as:

What does it look like to love God and reflect his values with our finances? Is it wrong to want to plan ahead or make money in this world? How do we love God while also making smart financial decisions that can support our family?

Join us as we explore biblical principles of financial stewardship.

In this episode, we dive into biblical stewardship—what it means, why it matters, and how it challenges the way we think about ownership. If God owns everything and is over everything, that means our time, talents, gifts, money, resources, (essentially everything) is his. Therefore, we are responsible to entrust those things to him to use for his purpose.

The truth of Christianity stands or falls on the truth of the resurrection of Jesus. With Easter quickly approaching, you'll have a great opportunity to talk to your friends and family about the hope you have in Jesus' resurrection. In this episode, we'll look at the historical evidence we have that Jesus was, in fact, a real historical person, that Jesus did rise from the dead, and why we can have confidence that Christianity is true.

In this episode, we seek to show how as beautiful as general revelation truly is, it was never going to be enough. We needed God to specially reveal himself, and now that he has revealed himself primarily in Christ, we look to Christ and his word to define all things for us in thought and life.

  • Quotes
    • “When therefore, we review the whole terrain of general revelation, we discover, on the one hand, that it has been of great value and that it has borne rich fruits, and, on the other hand, that mankind has not found God by its light.”
    • “In general revelation such objective teaching is adequate to its purpose. What God intends by it is to provoke man to seek Him, to feel Him out and find Him (Acts 17:27), and, not finding Him, yet be without excuse (Romans 1:20). But in His special revelation God has compassion upon man who strays about and cannot find Him. In it, God seeks man out and Himself tells man who and what He is.” p50
    • “The central content of the special revelation is the person and work of Christ.” p50
    • “Thus the whole revelation of the Old Testament converges upon Christ, not upon a new law, or doctrine, or institution, but upon the person of Christ. A person is the completed revelation of God.” p77

In this episode we seek to define and display the beauty of general revelation. The hope is that this episode would help us understand what general revelation means, see God's grand design in his creation, and recognize God's kindness in revealing himself to us.

  • “As a matter of fact, all of the works of God, whether of word or deed, are constituent parts and elements of the one, great, comprehensive, and always continuing revelation of God.” - Bavinck
  • “Revelation, therefore, cannot have its final purpose in man; in part it passes him by and soars on beyond him.” - Bavinck
  • “In the general revelation God makes use of the usual run of phenomena and the usual course of events; in the special revelation He often employs unusual means, appearances, prophecy, and miracles to make himself known to man.”
  • “When therefore, we review the whole terrain of general revelation, we discover, on the one hand, that it has been of great value and that it has borne rich fruits, and, on the other hand, that mankind has not found God by its light.” - Bavinck
