A Feeling and Suffering Servant

Posted: 25 Feb 2021 06:48 AM PST

A Feeling and Suffering Servant A Feeling and Suffering Servant Who is God's Servant in Isaiah 49:1–12? When we look at this servant, it’s not hard to recognize His divine characteristics and how much He reminds us of the previous servant we talked about. This servant is the same servant that we identified as the Messiah. His Read More

Free Indeed ⛓️

Slavery had been abolished in 1865, but by the 1880s, convict leasing flourished in its place. Many black citizens who had thought themselves free were unjustly ensnared in yet another form of forced labor. Freedom isn't always as it seems. Join me for "Free Indeed" and learn of the glorious hope God offers for those enslaved by sin.

The Immortal Woman ðŸ§¬

In 1951, Henrietta Lacks died at the age of 31, but her cells live on in laboratories across the globe, giving rise to the nickname "the immortal woman." HeLa cells are integral in the treatment and study of the major diseases of our day, bringing hope and health to innumerable people. Join me for the story of Henrietta Lacks & learn about the immortality offered to you through Christ.

The Scam Program

They impersonate Facebook profiles, send you fake emails, and call you saying they can lower your interest rate. But they aren't your friends. Spam calls, emails, and social media posts are getting more and more common. Just today, someone called It Is Written and reported that they received a phone call from someone using our name and phone number. One problem: it wasn't us. Read more »

Eyes for India Annual Eye Camp

Eyes for India held its annual eye camp in Barabanki district, India, in February and was able to restore sight to thousands of people. Dr. Jacob Prabhakar, ophthalmologist, thanks God for a successful camp, despite the continued pandemic! From February 1 to 11, Dr. Prabhakar and his medical team successfully completed 2,672 cataract and 29 pterygium removal surgeries. Read more »

We must conclude that the future has arrived!

The media described the meeting as "unprecedented." Less than three months ago, five professional basketball players and several officials of the National Basketball Association traveled to Italy to meet with Pope Francis at the Vatican City. In the midst of a global pandemic, and shortly before the start of basketball training camps, the group spent an hour with the pope talking about their work on social justice issues. You may wonder why a group of highly-paid sports players would fly overnight to Rome to spend an hour with a church leader. "We are inspired by the work that you do globally," the group told Pope Francis.

Hope in Advance

Posted: 24 Feb 2021 04:38 AM PST

Hope in Advance Hope in Advance Though the nation did face terrible calamity because of the people's sins, some among them did not give up hope. They clung to God's promises, such as those found in Leviticus 26:40–45. Read the verses carefully. Put yourself in the place of those Hebrews who were alive after the nation's defeat Read More

Persian “Messiah”

Posted: 23 Feb 2021 07:25 AM PST

Persian "Messiah" Persian "Messiah" What stunning prediction appears in Isaiah 44:26–45:6? This passage describes an unexpected character. God calls Cyrus to subdue the nations. In biblical history, this nation specifically would have been Babylon. What is stunning is that Cyrus is said to have not known God, yet God calls Cyrus His servant. Cyrus is God’s servant Read More

Unnamed Individual Servant  Unnamed Individual Servant  What is the role and character of God's unnamed Servant, whom God chooses and on whom He puts His Spirit? (Isa. 42:1–7.)

Servant Nation

Posted: 21 Feb 2021 12:43 PM PST

Servant Nation In Isaiah 41:8 God speaks of "Israel, my servant" (NRSV), and in 42:1 He introduces "my servant." Who is this Servant? Isaiah 42:1 is the first introduction of this servant. It’s easy to confuse this servant with the servant of Isaiah 41:8, but they are two different persons. One servant is the nation of Isreal Read More
