  Day 273 — “Who Do You Say I Am?”

  Sep 29, 20268 minS5

  Day 273 — “Who Do You Say I Am?” Matthew 16 | The Story of Scripture There are plenty of opinions about Jesus. Some call Him a good teacher. Others see Him as a prophet, a moral example, or an influential figure in history. But in Matthew 16, Jesus asks His disciples a question that every one of us must answer: “But who do YOU say that I am?” Peter responds with one of the greatest confessions in Scripture: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” — Matthew 16:16 Peter recognized Jesus as the promised Messiah. But Jesus would soon teach him that recognizing the Christ also meant understanding the cross. Jesus did not come simply to improve our circumstances or meet our expectations. He came to suffer, die in the place of sinners, and rise again so that we might have eternal life. And following Him means more than knowing the right answers. It means surrendering our lives to His authority. It is possible to say the right things about Jesus while still resisting what Jesus says. So today, consider this: Are you following the Jesus revealed in Scripture, or a version of Jesus shaped by your preferences? Are you willing to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him? Because the most important question you will ever answer is not what you accomplish, accumulate, or achieve in this life. It is this: “Who do YOU say Jesus is?” He is the Christ. The Son of the living God. The crucified and risen Savior. And He is worthy of your life.

  UNSEEN — Episode 13: “The Battle for Your Home”

  Sep 29, 202627 minS5

  UNSEEN — Episode 13: “The Battle for Your Home” Joshua 24:15 | Deuteronomy 6:4–9 | Ephesians 6:1–4 Some of the most important spiritual battles you will ever fight won't happen in public. They'll happen inside the walls of your own home. In your marriage. In your parenting. Around the dinner table. In the conversations you have—or the ones you keep putting off. The enemy understands something we cannot afford to forget: The family is one of the most important places where faith is formed and passed from one generation to the next. Joshua declared: “As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” — Joshua 24:15 But that declaration requires more than a Christian sign hanging on the wall. It requires a commitment lived out every day. In this episode of UNSEEN, we examine what Scripture teaches about defending our homes through biblical leadership, intentional discipleship, sacrificial love, prayer, and the authority of God's Word. And remember something important: Your spouse is not your enemy. Your children are not your enemy. The goal is not to win battles against the people inside your home, but to stand together in Christ against everything seeking to pull your family away from Him. Parents, don't become so consumed with preparing your children for success in this world that you neglect preparing them for eternity. Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church. Families, reclaim the ordinary moments. Open the Bible. Pray together. Have the difficult conversations. Demonstrate forgiveness. Make Jesus more than someone you acknowledge on Sunday. You cannot manufacture saving faith in your family, but you can faithfully point them toward the Savior. Your greatest spiritual legacy may not be something you build in the public eye. It may be the family you faithfully lead when nobody else is watching. Listen to Episode 13 of UNSEEN — The Battle You Cannot See but Must Face, with Dr. John Baldwin. The battle is real. But our victory is in Christ. #UNSEEN #TheBattleForYourHome #Joshua2415 #BiblicalFamily #SpiritualWarfare #ChristianMarriage #FaithAtHome Support the show

  Day 272 — “The Good Shepherd”

  Sep 28, 20268 minS5

  Day 272 — “The Good Shepherd” John 10 | The Story of Scripture There are a thousand voices competing for your attention. Culture, fear, temptation, emotions, and the opinions of others. But there is only One whose voice leads to eternal life. Jesus declares in John 10:11: “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” Unlike a hired hand who runs when danger comes, Jesus does not abandon His sheep. He knows them. He calls them. He protects them. And He willingly laid down His life to save them. At the cross, the Good Shepherd did what no ordinary shepherd could ever do—He died in the place of His sheep and rose again to give them eternal life. And what a promise He gives in John 10:28: “I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.” Our security is not found in how tightly we can hold on to Jesus, but in the power of the Savior who holds us. So today, ask yourself: Am I listening to His voice? Am I following His Word? Am I resting in His care? Whatever season you are walking through, remember this: The Good Shepherd never loses sight of His sheep. He knows where you are. He knows what you need. And the One who was willing to die to save you will never abandon you along the way.

  Day 271 — “Lost and Found”

  Sep 27, 20267 minS5

  Day 271 — “Lost and Found” Luke 15 Luke 15 shows us the heart of God toward lost people. Jesus tells three stories: a lost sheep, a lost coin, and a lost son. In every story, something valuable is lost, something is found, and rejoicing follows. The shepherd goes after the sheep until he finds it . The woman searches for the coin until she finds it . The father sees his son coming home and runs to meet him. That is the heart of God. But Jesus also shows us two different ways to be lost. The younger son was lost in rebellion. The older son was lost in self-righteousness. One ran away from the father. The other stayed near the house but was far from the father’s heart. And both needed grace. The good news is this: God receives repentant sinners. You are not too far gone to come home. You are not beyond the reach of grace. Jesus came to seek and save the lost, died for our sin, and rose again so that everyone who repents and believes can be forgiven. And when a sinner comes home, heaven rejoices. So today, ask yourself: Am I trusting Christ—or myself? Have I wandered from the Father? Do I still rejoice when grace reaches someone else? What was lost can be found. And when sinners come home, heaven rejoices. ️ The Story of Scripture with Pastor John Day 271 — Luke 15 Support the show

  Day 270 — “Love Your Neighbor”

  Sep 26, 20268 minS5

  Day 270 — “Love Your Neighbor” Luke 10 The lawyer asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?” But Jesus turned the question around. The real issue is not, “Who qualifies for my love?” It is, “Will I become a neighbor to the person God places in front of me?” In the story of the Good Samaritan, the priest saw the wounded man. The Levite saw him too. But both passed by. The Samaritan saw the same need and moved toward it with compassion. That is the difference. Compassion does not stop at seeing. It acts. The Samaritan gave his time, his resources, his attention, and his money. His plans were interrupted because someone else was hurting. That is what real love looks like. But this story also points us to something even greater. We do not show mercy in order to earn salvation. We show mercy because, through Jesus Christ, we have already received mercy. When we were helpless in sin, Jesus did not pass by on the other side. He came to us. He took on flesh. He carried our sin to the cross, died in our place, and rose again so that we could be forgiven. So today, ask yourself: Who is beside my road? Who needs me to notice? Who needs me to move toward them? Who needs mercy instead of distance? True love sees. True love moves. True love sacrifices. ️ The Story of Scripture with Pastor John Day 270 — Luke 10 Support the show
