Faith that Speaks— Anytime, Anywhere

If someone wrote a biography about your life, what would they say? What details would they include? More importantly, if someone wrote a biography about your spiritual life, what would they say? In Ephesians 2, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, the apostle Paul pens an inerrant account of the spiritual biography of every true Christian. He vividly describes the spiritual journey that every follower of Christ has experienced—from being dead in sin to being made alive in Christ. Join Tom Pennington has he describes the spiritual biography of every follower of Christ: This Is Your Life.

The Bible presents Jesus of Nazareth as the promised Messiah of the Old Testament and as the rightful King of the universe. God makes this point clear by providentially orchestrating the arrival of the magi at Jesus' birth. Here, the magi acknowledge Jesus as Israel's divine Messiah and as the only way of salvation. But not everyone at Jesus' birth responded to Him like the magi. Join Tom Pennington has he explains the only appropriate response to the birth of Jesus Christ: Let Earth Receive Her King!

The book of Ecclesiastes is designed to help God's people understand the truth about life "under the sun"—in a fallen world. God graciously gave Solomon wisdom, discernment and breadth of mind, like the sand that is on the seashore. Solomon's wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all the sons of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt. In Ecclesiastes Solomon reveals that life is a gift from God to be enjoyed, but it also has serious limitations. Those twin realities are meant to compel us to seek God in faith, fear, obedience, and love. Join Tom Pennington as he explains the theme of the book of Ecclesiastes: A Biblical Philosophy of Life.

In His greatest sermon, Jesus explained to His disciples His own exalted view of Scripture. Then He demanded that every one of His true followers hold the same view. If Jesus Christ is the ultimate authority in heaven and on earth, and if He is your Lord, it is imperative that you think about and respond to the Word of God exactly as He did. What Jesus believed and taught about Scripture must shape the faith and practice of every true Christian. Join Tom Pennington as He describes What Your View of Scripture Says About You.

Romans 3 provides the apostle Paul's clearest teaching on the depravity of mankind. Because of their sin, all humanity stands guilty before the God of the universe. Such a legal status before God has serious implications for every person on this planet, especially for those who have not repented of their sin and believed upon Jesus Christ. In Romans 3:19–20 Paul reveals what God will say to every unbeliever on the future day of judgment. Join Tom Pennington as he explains what awaits every unbeliever as they stand before God: Your Day in Court.

The New Testament prescribes two ordinances that the church must consistently practice as an act of worship to God: believer's baptism and communion. These ordinances, or rites or ceremonies, have significant meaning for the Christian in light of the person and work of Jesus Christ. Sadly, many Christians don't fully grasp the richness of what the Bible teaches about the Lord's Table. In fact, the first century church of Corinth needed apostolic intervention because of their abuse of this ordinance. As the apostle Paul corrects their sinfulness, he reveals timeless truths that are applicable to the church today. Join Tom Pennington as he gives an in-depth explanation of Paul's teaching on The Lord's Table.
