graceofGod Episodes

Yesterday, we looked at how Paul received the Gospel—not from men, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Today, Paul continues his story. In Galatians 1:18–24, Paul explains what happened after his conversion. We also look at Acts 9, where Paul begins preaching Christ, faces opposition, and eventually has to escape for his life. Paul’s story is a powerful reminder that a changed life doesn’t always happen overnight, and people don’t always immediately believe that you’ve changed. But God can take the person you were and use that very story to demonstrate His grace. Your past may explain where you’ve been, but it doesn’t have to determine where you’re going.

In Luke 14:16-24, Jesus tells the parable of the great supper. A man prepares a great feast and sends out invitations, but when everything is ready, those who were invited begin making excuses. But notice what happens next. In verse 21, the master becomes angry and tells his servant to go into the streets and bring in the poor, the maimed, the halt, and the blind. Then, in verse 23, the command becomes even more urgent: “Compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” And then comes the sobering warning of verse 24: “For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.” This isn’t simply a story about a dinner invitation. Jesus is revealing the seriousness of God’s invitation—and the danger of treating that invitation casually. God’s invitation is gracious. It is extended. The door is open. But there comes a point when excuses have consequences. Today, we’re going to look closely at verses 21, 23, and 24 and ask ourselves an im…

James reminds us that many of life’s struggles and conflicts begin in our own hearts. We chase what we want, we quarrel, and we often seek fulfillment apart from God. But the answer isn’t found in striving—it’s in surrender. In this episode, we’ll look at how humility, repentance, and submission to God lead to true peace. When we resist the devil and turn our hearts toward the Lord, He promises to draw near to us and lift us up in His grace.

In Luke 17:1–5, Jesus speaks some of His most challenging words—warnings about causing others to stumble, commands to forgive repeatedly, and a call to live by faith. In this episode, we explore what it means to walk in humility, extend forgiveness without limit, and trust God when obedience feels too hard. If you’ve ever struggled to forgive—or to believe you can—this episode will help you lean into the strength that comes through faith in Christ.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Death is a subject that many of us would rather not discuss. Me too. Paul teaches us and the church at Thessalonica some important principles about death. Things that should bring comfort to the Christian.
