Episode #57: Citizen Yourselves (Phil 1:27a)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/09/01

(Phil 1:27a)Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have the honor of introducing you to the very first command in the book of Philippians? That's right: after a full year of episodes, we are just now encountering our very first imperative. And it is not only the first, but I believe in some respects it is the most important instruction in Paul's mind, because he will spend the rest of the book explaining what it means.And it all comes down to your IDENTITY.~~~~I'd love to hear from you

Episode #56: Pausing to Plumb the Depth's of Paul's...

Project: Philippians ·

2024/08/25

(Phil 1:12-26)Sometimes you can study the trees so much, you miss the forest. So today, we're going to step back from our microscopic study of individual words and verses, and take a sweeping survey of the majestic landscape that we've covered in the last dozen verses.And like I did in an earlier episode, I've also mixed in a couple dramatic readings accompanied by music from my Ukrainian friend, Zakhar Valaha. You can find more of his music at

Episode #55: Building Boasters (Phil 1:25-26)

2024/08/18

(Phil 1:25-26)Every Sunday when you set foot inside a church building, what is your goal? What's your purpose for being there? Are you there just to sit and soak? Are you there for the teaching? for the worship? for a weekly dose of encouragement orcatching up with old friends? What if I told you that's NOT what church is for? Paul had something entirely different in mind whenever he showed up at the local congregation. He was there ON MISSION. Tune in today to find out what his mission was.~~~~I'd

Episode #54: Will Work for Fruit (Phil 1:22-24)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/08/11

You probably think of the Garden of Eden as a place of paradise, and it was. But have you ever thought of it as a place of WORK? As it turns out, that's exactly what it was. When God created the perfect world and put people in it, He created them to work, and He said, "Don't worry; this is gonna be GOOD!"In today's podcast I want to unpack that idea from the view of the Apostle Paul, who clearly had the same perspective. As a matter of fact, the only reason Paul wanted to get up every morning was so

Episode 53: Inner Struggles (Phil 1:22-24)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/08/04

(Phil 1:22-24)This may be one of the most important podcasts I've ever recorded. It certainly is the most transparent. Today, it is my goal to take you on a candid and revealing tour inside the vacillating heart of the Apostle Paul, and of my own. But though this may be a tour into a dark valley, I trust that you find that we will not get stuck in the misty depths, but we will emerge on the other side... and we will be transformed by the journey.~~~~I'd love to hear from you

Episode #52: To Die Is Gain (Phil 1:21b)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/07/28

(Phil 1:21b)As I write this, 2024 is half over. And do you know what the unrivaled highlight of this year has been for me? The answer might surprise you: it was the memorial service for my dear and precious mom. No, I was not happy to see her go. Far from it! It was a day of deep sadness and the most blubbery weeping that I have ever done in public. BUT, it was also a day of great celebration and joy. How could that be? How could a day of such bleakness be so triumphant? Only one reason: because for

Episode #51: To Live is Christ (Phil. 1:21a)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/07/21

(Philippians 1:21a)“But fairest of all was the great white gem, which the dwarves had found beneath the roots of the Mountain: the Heart of the Mountain, the Arkenstone of Thrain.... 'For the Arkenstone of my father,' said Thorin, 'is worth more than a river of gold in itself, and to me it is beyond price.'” (The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien)Some gems are so precious that are no words to describe their beauty adequately. Some verses in Scripture are like that as well. I, for one, feel completely unworthy

Episode #50 - The Theme of Life (Phil 1:20b)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/07/14

(Philippians 1:20b)The theme of today's podcast is “themes”.A theme is like the common thread that ties something together. It is the unifying idea. Themes elevate a simple sequence of events into a true work of literature or art. You might say that themes are the beating heart of all meaningful narrative.They give stories depth and resonance. They give sermons coherence and power. And they give lives direction and meaning.Join with me today as we study what I believe to be the central theme of

Episode #49 - Hoping for Grace (Phil 1:20a)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/07/07

(Phil 1:20a)If I asked you to name your most embarrassing memory, I'll bet you wouldn't have much difficulty remembering it (although you might not be too keen on telling me about it!) As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure that all of us have a whole string of deeply buried (maybe even long repressed) memories that are shrouded in embarrassment, humiliation, and shame. That's normal, of course, and just part of being human, I suppose. But have you ever wondered how much our lives are shaped and

Episode #48: Provision and Prayer (Phil 1:19b)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/06/30

(Phil 1:19b)Have you ever watched a movie and just wished you could be there? Perhaps it was some inspiring adventure story about a courageous warrior or hero who surmounted the obstacles and hung in till the end. After you watch a film like that -- when the final music surges and the credits roll -- isn't there something inside your soul that just yearns to be a part of such a heroic story? Friends, I believe that feeling is the Spirit of God within you, forging your heart to be like His. But here

Episode #47: Joy & Deliverance (Acts 1:18b-19a)

2024/06/23

(Acts 1:18b-19a)Are you a "high beams" Christian or a "rear view mirror" Christian? When you are coursing down this journey of life, are you the type of person that strains to look down the road as far as you can -- to see what's on the distant horizon? Or are you instead always glancing in the rear view mirror -- looking back to see what's gone behind? Or maybe you're just too focused on the things in the vehicle to bothered by what's outside the window -- too busy adjusting the stereo or the cabin

Episode #46 So What? (Phil 1:18)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/06/16

(Phil 1:18)Have you ever had a flat tire on the freeway? I certainly hope that you never do, but for those of you have had an experience of this sort, you know the distinct sensation of having to "drive against the pull". You see, when one of your tires is flat, it knocks the alignment of your steering way out of whack. And as a result, when you try to drive straight (even if you're just trying to make it to a safe place on the shoulder of the road), your entire car feels like it is working against

Episode #45 Right Life, Wrong Reasons (Phil 1:15-17)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/06/10

(Phil 1:15-17)I remember the first time I drove home from college. Near the middle of the long, multi-state road trip, I stopped at a rest stop, and when I was done, I got back on the freeway ... going the wrong direction! It was at least half an hour before I realized my mistake! What a blunder!But, oh, my friends, a much worse tragedy than driving the wrong direction in your car is going the wrong direction in your life. And the scary thing is -- we are all vulnerable of making that mistake

Episode #43: A Life Redefined (Phil. 1:13)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/05/26

(Phil. 1:13)Do you remember stereographs -- those crazy looking posters that used to be popular in the malls? You would walk past one and it would look like a jumble of random nonsense. But if you looked at it long enough and hard enough, and stared at it in just the right way, you would suddenly see an entirely new picture pop out at you in 3-D! All of a sudden, what looked at first like specks and scribbles would be transformed instantly into the three dimensional shapes of dinosaurs or

Episode #42: Where Was Paul? (Phil 1:13)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/05/19

(Phil 1:13)One of my favorite things to do as a child was to go on "Scavenger Hunts". Have you ever been on one? Some thoughtful friend of yours would have to set it up: they would plant clues -- hide them all over the house or neigborhood -- and your job was to search for them, each clue leading to the next one, until finally, if you were persistent, you would reach the treasure at the end. Such fun!You know, that's what I love about Bible study: it is a book filled with clues and mysteries and

Episode #41: Reformation of Your Mind (Phil 1:12)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/05/12

(Phil 1:12)We're finally back in the book of Philippians after a long detour studying the biography of Paul. But that gigantic rabbit trail through Acts has led us back to the path, now, and has set the stage to help us understand this verse in a way you probably never have before. Today we're going to listen as Paul bears witness to how he has totally recalibrated his perspectinve on suffering and setbacks.Your journey may not be easy, my friends. Mine neither. But that's why it is so glorious to

Episode #40: The End of the Beginning (Acts 28: 11-31)

Project: Philippians ·

2024/05/05

(Acts 28: 11-31)Winston Churchill is famously remembered to have said on one occassion, "This is not the end. This is not even the beginning of the end. But it is the end of the beginning."In today's episode we come to an end of sorts. We have finally reached the end of the book of Acts and our little mini-tour with the Apostle Paul from Asia to Jerusalem to Rome. And we are going to discover that the ending -- at least the end from the perspective of Luke's account -- is a bit "anticlimactic", to

Episode #39: Miracles on Malta

Project: Philippians ·

2024/04/28

(Acts 28:1-10)Have you ever read a biography before -- a story about someone's life? I love to read them because they are rarely ever boring. Imagine reading a biography about someone who literally never had any problems. What a dull book that would be! No, all the good stories (just like all the good lives) are filled with unexpected twists and precarious turns. That's what makes a story interesting and enjoyable to read! And the Lord wants to remind us that that's what makes a life enjoyable to

Rembering Mom

Project: Philippians ·

2024/04/21

Today's episode is an intermission from our regular routine. I hope you don't mind, but I chose to take a short break from our normal cadence of podcast recordings to reminisce about a dear saint who gave me life and taught me the way that I should go. I was on a road trip to my hometown of SLO, quietly remembering my mother's passing, earlier this year. And so I thought it might be appropriate to pause from my scriptural studies in order to spend a few moments remembering the woman who first taught
