In this episode of Theology RX, Kyler interviews women from the church about their journey of following Jesus and striving to live godly lives. We hope it offers others hope and ideas no matter where you are at on your journey of faith.

Pastor Josh and Kyler thought it would be a good idea to start a podcast. In this first episode, they explore the history of the Bible and how it stands up to scrutiny and comparison to other ancient documents. Join these two doctors as they prescribe some reflections on how the Bible is reliable.

Ever wonder why God would choose you? Why He would love you despite your mistakes, your anger, your doubts?
The opening words of Malachi hit different: "I have loved you." Not "I loved you once" or "I'll love you if..." but "I have loved you and ALWAYS love you."
In this week's sermon, we learn the heart of God: You're not here by accident. You're here because you're loved.

Malachi 1:1-5

This sermon explores God's expectations for nations and governments, drawing parallels between ancient Israel and modern-day America. The pastor emphasizes that while politics has become a divisive issue, Christians should focus on the kingdom of God and living out their faith. He argues that good government begins with kingdom living by both citizens and leaders, and that prayer should be the first response to political challenges. The sermon calls for Christians to be a transformative people in society, prioritizing faithfulness and holiness over political partisanship.

This sermon explores how God is concerned with building His house through the lives and families of believers. It emphasizes that God desires to work through our households to bring about spiritual transformation, not just in physical structures but in the hearts and relationships of His people. The pastor challenges the congregation to consider how their homes can become sanctuaries of God's presence and love, impacting both their immediate family and the broader community.

In this powerful message, we're invited to reflect on our role as living stones in God's spiritual house. Drawing from 1 Peter 2, we're reminded that as believers, we're not just isolated individuals, but part of a greater community knit together by Christ. The imagery of Lego bricks forming Jabba's palace serves as a vivid analogy for how we, as the church, must come together as designed by God to fulfill our purpose. This isn't just about attending service; it's about recognizing God's constant presence among us and our responsibility to be holy vessels. We're challenged to see ourselves as chosen, royal, and set apart - not for our own glory, but to declare God's praises and reveal His love to the world. This message urges us to pursue holiness actively, reminding us that our individual and collective transformation is key to being an effective dwelling place for God's spirit.1 Peter 2:4-10

In this exploration of 'Houses' in the Bible, we're invited to reconsider our understanding of God's presence in physical spaces. The story of Jacob in Genesis 28 sets the stage, reminding us that God can turn any place into holy ground. We're challenged to approach our gathering spaces with anticipation, asking 'Is God with us?' just as the Israelites did. The tabernacle and temple weren't just buildings, but symbols of God's covenant and presence among His people. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to see our church buildings not as containers of God's glory, but as tools for His glory. This shift in perspective invites us to be more intentional in our worship and community life, expecting to encounter God wherever we gather in His name. How might this change the way we approach our Sunday mornings or small group meetings?

Leviticus 9:22-24

Today's sermon explores the challenging concept of God saying "no" to our prayers, focusing on the apostle Paul's experience with his "thorn in the flesh." The passage emphasizes that God's refusal can lead to spiritual growth, deeper dependence on His grace, and a demonstration of His power through our weaknesses. The sermon encourages believers to trust God's wisdom even when His answers don't align with our desires, highlighting that God's "no" often paves the way for a different, more beneficial "yes" in our spiritual journey.Acts 12:1-10
