Going DeeperNew Life in the GraveyardIn this episode, we're talking about the heavy topic of our own mortality, and how even though it seemed as though Jesus had failed, God got the last laugh.

Going DeeperThe Healing Power of ScarsFor many of us, scars are often seen as a negative thing. Something that reminds us of past injury or trauma. But God will often use our scars to display His power to those in our lives, and to reveal his glory to others because of, not in spite of, our past.

Going DeeperFrom Creation to FoolishnessOn this episode of the podcast we discuss the idea of foolishness, and how what we see as wisdom, God sees as foolishness and vice versa. The conversation is full of seeming contradiction, but God's wisdom far outweighs ours we see how God takes our way of thinking and flips it upside down to reveal an even more powerful display of his grace and mercy.

Going DeeperWhat is Prayer, and how do I do it?There are many ideas about what prayer is, and how best to go about it. What does the Bible tell us about prayer?

Going DeeperWhen God doesn’t answer your prayers the right way!Prayer is an important part of the spiritual life, but as Christians, prayer takes on an even deeper meaning in our lives. We are invited into a relationship with the God of the universe through the practice of prayer. It can take many different forms, but the heart of prayer is a life that is submitting, listening, and talking to God, regardless of your present circumstances. On this episode I talk with two amazing women who have had their prayer lives evolve over the course of their lives into a central aspect of the faith i...2022-07-0452 min

Going DeeperThe Good, the Bad, and the IndifferentThe first three chapters of the Book of the Revelation covers 7 letters to 7 churches. Jesus doesn’t pull any punches, laying out the good, if there is any; the bad, which they all have; and the indifference that rears its ugly head in more than one of the churches. If we’re honest with ourselves, we can find bits of all of these harsh statements in our local churches.

Going DeeperThe Resurrection of JesusThe resurrection of Jesus is often discussed, debated, and disputed. When we step back and look objectively at the facts and historical events surrounding the resurrection, we find that it’s not only plausible, but probable that the events happened the way they were recorded in scripture. But what does it all mean for us today? Do we live day-to-day like we follow a risen savior?

Going DeeperTough Lessons from JesusWe have the benefit of reading Jesus’ words with a hindsight view. Many of the things that Jesus said and taught were not only difficult to understand, but they flew in the face of everything that culture dictated. Not that we have it easy. Many of these “hard sayings” of Jesus are just as hard for us to grasp and practice today as they were in the first century.

Going DeeperWhat’s the Right Way to Pray?For the follower of Christ, it’s clear that prayer is important, but why is it important? What does it mean to live a life of prayer. Does prayer mean that you’re asking for God to do what you want, or is prayer asking God to show you what he wants for you?

Going DeeperLiving in to the MiraclesIn this episode, we talk about another set of miracles recorded in the New Testament. With each encounter, the person for whom Jesus does the miracles takes action. The blind man washes his eyes. The paralytic gets up. The demon possessed man shares his story. The woman bleeding and Jairus both sought out Jesus. Even Lazarus had to stand up and walk out of the grave. How are you taking action to live in to the miracles that Jesus has done and is doing in your life? Follow us online – https://www.trinityruston.org Join us...2022-03-3052 min

Going DeeperLooking for MiraclesDoes God still do miracles today? Are we looking for and expecting miracles? Have we become so self-sufficient that we feel like we don’t need miracles in our lives? In this episode we discuss several of Jesus’ miracles that are recorded in scripture and wrestle with the purpose behind the specific miracles, and how we can begin looking for the movement of God in our own lives. #trinityruston #livedeeper #reachwider Follow us online – https://www.trinityruston.org Join us in the Holy Land - https://bit.ly/3uCRjjJ Do you...2022-03-2241 min

Going DeeperThe Greatest Sermon EverThe sermon on the mount is easily the greatest sermon ever told. On first glance, it seems pretty simple, and full of nice platitudes, but when we begin to dig in a little deeper to the sermon as a whole, we discover that’s it sets the bar even higher than the Old Testament law.

Going DeeperAre the prophets talking about Jesus?Listening to the Prophets Prophets and prophecy are often misunderstood in today’s culture. Many of the prophecies we read in the Old Testament have more than one meaning, with one being to a particular event happening at the time the prophecy was given.

Going DeeperFair Treatment and Holy ConversationsJames encourages his readers to treat each other fairly in business dealings, and to have "holy conversations" by confessing our sins.

Going Deeper“…And in the end…” The book of Revelation.The book of revelation is fascinating, encouraging, and troubling all at the same time.

What does Paul say about things like grace, the law, and condemnation?
