Faith that Speaks— Anytime, Anywhere

In a world where countless voices compete for our attention and everyone claims to be an authority, how do we recognize true authority when we encounter it? As we study a portion of the Gospel of Mark, we'll step into a remarkable day in the life of Jesus Christ. But what set Jesus apart from the other religious leaders of His day? It wasn't merely what He taught but the unmistakable authority with which He taught it. Join Tom Pennington from the Gospel of Mark as he helps us understand A Day in the Life of Jesus.

The ideas that shape our culture are often far older than we realize. From the ancient philosopher Protagoras' declaration that "man is the measure of all things" to today's widespread belief that life is ultimately about personal fulfillment, the influence of human-centered thinking remains powerful. Yet Scripture presents a radically different perspective: we are not the center of the universe—God is. Join Tom Pennington as he explores Ephesians 2 to help us see that in God's plan of redemption, All the World's a Stage.

Historians tell us that out of thousands of years of recorded history, humanity has experienced only a few centuries of peace—and the Bible reveals why: the deepest wars are not merely fought between nations but within the human heart of every person. Today, as we begin exploring James 4, Pastor Tom helps us discover that the source of our quarrels, arguments, and broken relationships is far closer than we often realize. Rather than pointing the finger at others, the Bible challenges us to examine ourselves and uncover the sinful desires that fuel conflict in every area of life. Join Tom Pennington from James 4 as we consider the theme of War and Peace: Learning to Deal with Conflict.

In Matthew chapter 6, Jesus addresses the three great pillars of Jewish piety: giving, praying, and fasting. But He begins with a staggering warning against the sin of hypocrisy—practicing our righteousness before men to be noticed by them. Our Lord teaches that those who perform for the applause of the crowd have no reward from their Father in heaven. Join Tom Pennington as he considers the Sermon on the Mount and a Christian perspective on giving—For His Eyes Only: Giving to the Glory of God.

Would you describe yourself as a hospitable person? The often-overlooked Christian virtue of hospitality needs to be recaptured by Christians today. In this series, Pastor Tom encourages believers to be hospitable towards others, especially in a culture increasingly shaped by isolation, self-interest, and superficial connection. Join Tom Pennington as he helps believers understand from Scripture The Christian Virtue of Hospitality.

In this series, we consider the very heart of Paul’s letter to the Romans, where he describes the foundation upon which the entire Christian faith stands or falls: the doctrine of justification by faith alone. In Romans, Paul has already shown that every person falls short of God’s standard. But in Romans chapter 3, Paul presents the good news at the core of the gospel: that God offers His own righteousness as a gift through faith in Jesus Christ. Join Tom Pennington as he explains Romans 3:21–31 and that those who repent and believe in Jesus Christ are Found Righteous.
