John: The Encounter At The Well

Dec 02 2024 29 mins  
CLICK FOR NEWSLETTER Surprising. Shocking. Scandalous. Jews and Samaritans were NOT supposed to interact. Their mutual hatred went back generations. And yet, here Jesus was, not only talking with this woman in John 4 – but asking her for water. What was this encounter all about? Questions That We’ll Answer: A) What was the history of the Samaritans? Who were they? B) Wh

John: What It Means To Be Born Again

Nov 19 2024 32 mins  
CLICK FOR NEWSLETTER To Nicodemus, it seemed like crazy talk. But to Jesus, this was serious business. If God’s people are to be saved, we must first be ‘born again.’ So what does that term mean? And how does it happen? In today’s study, we’ll dive into the critical topic of regeneration. Questions That We’ll Answer: A) Who was Nicodemus, and why

John: Water Into Wine (The Miracle At Cana)

Nov 07 2024 24 mins  
DR. HOLT’S NEWSLETTER It wasn’t just a miracle – it was a sign. In John 2, Jesus attended a wedding. And at this wedding He performed His first recorded miracle (turning water into wine). So, what was this miracle really about? As we’ll see, it pointed forward to the cross – even if no one knew it at the time. Questions That We’ll Answer: A) Why

John: A Voice In The Wilderness

Oct 29 2024 26 mins  
CLICK FOR NEWSLETTER John the Baptist had one job. John came to prepare people to meet Jesus. Specifically, he would ‘make straight the way of the Lord,’ as the prophet Isaiah had foretold. But the people wouldn’t listen. John would be a voice crying in the wilderness. He would be misunderstood, and eventually killed. And the same would happen to the Messiah. Ques

John: The Eyewitness To The Messiah

Oct 21 2024 29 mins  
Christianity: rooted in history, backed by eyewitnesses. In John 1, the author skips the greetings and goes straight to the heart of the matter: he and others saw, heard, and observed the Messiah. “The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,” he declared. In today’s study, we’ll consider the historical facts that support our faith. Questions That We’l

Jericho’s Fall: The Walls Came Tumbling Down

Oct 11 2024 34 mins  
Jericho had massive walls. It didn’t matter. There are no walls that can deter God’s Wrath. And there is no army that can stop those who serve Him. In Joshua 6, we will study both points in one of the most famous (and faith-building) passages in Scripture. Questions That We’ll Answer: A) How big was Jericho’s outer wall? Did it have an inner wall as well? B)

Jesus: The (Only) Name That Saves

Oct 01 2024 25 mins  
No. Other. Name. As he felt the Sanhedrin’s angry gaze, Peter stood firm. There’s no other name, there’s no other door, there’s no other way by which fallen sinners can be reconciled to God. Not two. Not ten. Just one, Peter declared. Jesus Christ is the singular means of salvation. Questions That We’ll Answer: A) What are the implications of this stat

Transformation Or Conformation (Paul’s Warning)

Sep 23 2024 26 mins  
The world is trying to remake you in its image. Will you let it? In Romans 12, the Apostle Paul reminds his readers that the world is intent on creating worldly people. That’s what it does. It wants to conform you and I to its own priorities. However, Paul tells Christians that we are NOT to be conformed – instead, we are to be transformed through the ‘renewing of

Genesis: The Final Words Of The First Book

Sep 09 2024 25 mins  
Genesis started in a GARDEN. It ended in a COFFIN. In Genesis 1, things were looking great. God had created the world, and said that all He had created was good. But things got dark in Genesis 3. Following man’s sin in Genesis 3, a roller coaster of depravity followed. In Genesis 4, Cain killed his brother, and things didn’t improve through the end of the book.In today&

Genesis: God’s Providence In Evil’s Path

Sep 02 2024 28 mins  
They meant it for evil. But God used it for good. In Genesis 45, Joseph’s brothers stood before him – brothers that had once sold him off to slave traders, and then told their father that he was dead. They had acted wickedly! And in a ‘twist of fate,’ their lives were now in his hands. But was it really a ‘twist of fate?’ Was their encounter just
