MICAH: How can we please God? The eternally important question

August 4, 2019 by bible805

How can we please God? How can we know if we are doing enough in our Christian lives?

How to please God, a discussion of Micah 6:8

Fortunately, God doesn’t play games with us and doesn’t leave us guessing as to what he wants us to do. We’ll talk about that today in our lesson.

We’ve been looking a lot at the history of what has happened to Israel and though that is important, what is even more important is how we apply the lessons we learn from history. The book of Micah gives us specific advice on how to do that.

In particular, we’ll drill down deeply into understanding and applying Micah 6:8 a verse many are familiar with that tells us that God wants us to: “Live justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.”

The last days of Israel and what they teach us about Truth, history, and the importance of obeying God

July 28, 2019 by bible805

Does it matter if the stories in the Bible really happened? Isn’t the important thing the spiritual truth taught in them?

It seems to be a common belief today that objective facts aren’t nearly as important as how we feel about our spiritual beliefs, but as you’ll learn today our Bible is based on historical realities and God cares very much about how we live our lives based on those realities.

Hosea and the meaning of true love

July 20, 2019 by bible805

Do you have trouble believing that God loves you? That he forgives you no matter what your sins?

Many of us have problems believing God really loves us, but with the prophet Hosea in the podcast today we will see an incredible example of God’s love that not only applied to Israel when it was going through a very hard time, but that applies to us today also.
