Faith that Speaks— Anytime, Anywhere

The book of Revelation, written by the apostle John, uniquely reveals the final days of human history and several details regarding the eternal state, the new heaven and earth, in which all believers will one day live. At the same time, the book of Revelation calls believers today to live for Christ while looking forward to being in His presence in the future. Join Tom Pennington as he encourages every Christian to ask this question in response to Revelation 22: How Should We Then Live?

What is your source of authority? For us as Christians, we would argue that God’s Word recording in the Bible is the final source of authority. But it is one thing to express that truth in words, it’s quite another to live out that conviction. If you claim to be a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God as revealed in the Bible, you must not only profess the Scripture as the ultimate authority but also live in light of that profession. Join Tom Pennington as he considers Proverbs 3 and asks every professing believer a crucial question: Where Do You Stand?

Have you truly placed your trust in Jesus Christ, the living Word made flesh, for your eternal salvation? And in your daily walk, are you drawing strength and guidance from the Written Word—the Scripture—for your spiritual growth? According to the book of James, the best way to analyze or test the genuineness of your faith is to “look in the mirror” and ask yourself if you treasure Jesus Christ and delight in His Word. In the series, Join Tom Pennington as he teaches from James 1 and encourages all believers to Look in the Mirror!

In the ancient world, when Greeks walked the agora or Romans gathered in their forums, citizenship carried a profoundly different weight. For them, to be a citizen wasn't merely to possess rights and privileges—though these existed. And friends, this ancient understanding perhaps better reflects the biblical concept of our heavenly citizenship. Scripture teaches that followers of Christ are, in fact, "citizens of heaven"—a profound status that grants us remarkable privileges, yes. But one that simultaneously places upon us serious responsibilities and duties. Join Tom Pennington as he explains from Philippians 1 that we, as Christians, are Not From Around Here.

What do you treasure or value most? For many of us, the answer shifts with time—perhaps it's financial security, relationships, career achievements, or material possessions. But for us as Christians, what we treasure most must be in accordance with Scripture. In 2 Timothy 2, the apostle Paul urges Timothy not only to treasure the truth of God’s Word and the gospel, but to carefully pass it on to the next generation of believers. Join Tom Pennington has he challenges us embrace and pass on A Sacred Trust.

How are we, as Christians, to respond to fear? Because we live in a sinful, fallen world, we are all prone to fear—and oftentimes we resort to thinking and responding unbiblically during those times. The question becomes: How do we transform our terror into trust? When the darkness closes in, where—and to whom—do we turn? Join Tom Pennington as he considers Psalm 91 and that all believers can rest In the Shadow of the Almighty.
