We live in a fallen world, and the god of this world, the devil, is pertrating evil all around us. We can hold on to the truth that Jesus has defeated Satan because of His death and resurrection from the dead. He has given us the victory of the power of the enemy. But, many will give in, and for that reason, we have to speak the truth and to shine His light in the darkness. Scripture Verse: John 8...  Read More

As we pointed out in the latest Faith Radio Ministry Magazine, Bible literacy is a very important topic to consider. We can each reflect on our own study of the Word and how we are applying Scripture to our lives. There is certainly an enhanced interest, it seems in Scripture, evidenced by increased Bible sales last year. But, we also have to not only open our Bibles, but open our hearts to study ...  Read More

The Kingdom of God is certainly advancing in many nations of the world, and we can give God praise for how He is working through His people. However, there are other nations in which either government officials or non-government actors are attempting to block the advance, resulting in restriction or outright persecution of Christians for their faith practices. Scripture Passage: 1st Peter 4:12-16 ...  Read More

You can draw a straight line from the evil that resides in the hearts of human beings to the murder of 60 million babies through abortion in America to a set of parents who hired a surrogate, wanted to abort the child due to a heart condition, and desired to allow the child to die once the surrogate chose life.

The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is a living organism, with the very life of Jesus flowing through it. We are not called to be stale in religious practices, but vibrant in our worship to God and our devotion to the Word. While there is certainly structure that can help the Church function, we also recognize that the Holy Spirit empowers us to carry out God’s mission on the earth. Scripture Pass...  Read More

Periodically, as a Christian, we may be challenged on our beliefs.  That’s why it’s important to know what we believe and why we believe it.  We can be people of the Word and depend on the Holy Spirit to give us the words to say when we are confronted with a differing opinion.  We have to make sure that we don’t respond confrontationally, but compassionately.  Scripture Passage: Luke 12:8-12...  Read More

We’ve been talking quite a bit here recently at Faith Radio about reaching the next generation, about making sure that we are positioned well in order to attract and reach future Faith Radio listeners.  When you consider that in the book of Judges, we read that a generation came that did not know the Lord, you can recognize how quickly a generational shift from light to darkness can occur - and, t...  Read More

It is important that we view our lives here on earth as gifts from God, certainly, but also a mission from Him.  Our home is eternal, but we have been deployed to this earth for a short period of time in order that we can glorify God and to populate heaven.  Our lives should be lived with a heavenly perspective while advancing His Kingdom on earth. Scripture Passage: Psalm 145:10-13 (ESV)...  Read More

The lengths a parent will go to protect his or her child or children can sometimes be mind-blowing and perhaps drive less-than-optimum action. Christian parents can recognize that God has given us responsibility to raise our children according to Biblical principles; yes, we may not always get it right, but the wisdom - and grace - of God are always available for us. Scripture Passage: Proverbs 29...  Read More

He’s given each of us a story - of transformation, of faith, of the love of Jesus flowing through our lives.Scripture Passage: 2nd Timothy 1:8-10...  Read More
