Why Do I Still Live Like a Prisoner After God Set Me Free? (Luke 4:14-22) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study
Hearing God in Luke:
Jesus stood up in His hometown synagogue, read Isaiah out loud, and said
it was about Him.
Today we're in Luke 4:14-22, where Jesus announces His mission: good news
to the poor, liberty to the captives, sight to the blind. The word for liberty
is the same word Luke used earlier for the forgiveness of sins. It means
release, pardon, a debt wiped off the books. I also share a

Wednesday Daily Affirmations: God's Plans for Me Are Good, and I Trust Him (Jeremiah 29:11)
Wednesday Daily Affirmations: I Will Not Be Anxious, I Will Pray and Trust God (Philippians 4:6-7)

Why Do I Feel Like I Have to Prove Myself? (Luke 4:1-13) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study
The devil's first words to Jesus were "if you are the Son of God." God had just called Him exactly that.
We're in Luke 4 today talking about the enemy. Who he is, how he actually
operates, and why his opening move is almost always an attack on identity. He isn't trying to get you to doubt that God exists. He's trying to get you to
prove something God already settled, because once you're busy prov

Why Does Resistance Come Right After You Obey God? (Luke 4:1-13) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study
Have you ever said yes to God and then watched everything get harder?
Luke 4 shows us why.
We're starting Luke chapter 4 in our fall Bible study, and before we get
to the three temptations, there's something in the first two verses most of us
read right past. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit is the one
who led Him into the wilderness. The hard season wasn't a detour from the

I Don't Want to Give the Devil Any of My Days: How Christians Should Handle Halloween and Other Listener Questions
Every year around this time I get the same question. What do we do about Halloween?
You'll hear everything from it's a free-for-all with no spiritual implication, to turn the lights off and hide in the house. My answer lands somewhere in the middle, and it starts here: I don't want to live in a way that hands the devil my days.
Today we take on Halloween, and then a harder question about free wi

Your Messy Family Doesn't Disqualify You: Luke 3:23-38
I know what a lot of you are thinking. The genealogy. Are we really going there?
We are, and there's a reason. If God had wanted a clean family tree for His Son, He had the power to arrange one. Instead He built this one, out of the overlooked and the outsider and the people who were wronged.
Today we're finishing Luke 3 by walking through the lineage of Jesus and the women hidden inside a list

Why Does God Let Things Get Stripped Away?: Luke 3:16-22
John says the Messiah is coming with a winnowing fork in His hand. Most of us read that as a threat. But a farmer doesn't go out to the threshing floor to destroy things. He goes out because he wants the grain.
Today we're in Luke 3, talking about the different kinds of baptism, what the winnowing fork actually did, and why the chaff is not what most of us assume it is.

The Difference Between Good Fruit and Bad Fruit: Luke 3:7-17
I had a grape recently that was so good I dug through the flesh to save the seeds. Then on a walk down our road I tried some wild grapes growing by the side, and I spit them straight out. Same size. Same color. Vines that looked almost identical.
That's the difference John is pressing on in Luke 3. He calls a crowd that walked miles into the desert a brood of vipers, and then tells them to bear f

God Knows What You Never Say Out Loud: Luke 3:3-16
Most of us carry questions we've never said out loud. Does God see me in this. Did I hear Him wrong. Is something different about me?
In Luke 3, the people were wondering in their hearts about John, and Luke tells us John answered them. Nobody asked anything out loud. Today we're talking about what prophecy actually is, how to tell a real word from a counterfeit, and what it means that God answer

God Saw What Was Done to You: Listener Questions
Today is one of our Q&A episodes, where we take a pause from the Bible study so you have time to catch up and I can work through questions that have come in.

Separate to Elevate: Luke 3:2
John the Baptist could have served in the temple. He was the son of a priest, and by birthright that door was open to him. Instead he lived in the desert, and that's where the word of God found him.
Today we slow down on one phrase in verse two and ask what the wilderness actually was, why John chose it over the temple, and why God so often separates people before He uses them.

Power Does Not Equal Influence
Luke opens chapter three with a list of names most of us skip. An emperor, a governor, three regional rulers, two high priests. Every one of them had access, money, and a platform. And the word of God went past all of them to a man in the wilderness.
Today we slow down and work through who these people actually were, why Luke includes them, and what it means that God chose the one person on that

When You Know It Was God but Don't Understand It: Luke 2:41-52
Mary knew exactly who her son was. She had the angel, the virgin conception, the shepherds, and Simeon's prophecy. And when her twelve-year-old said he had to be in his Father's house, Scripture tells us plainly that she did not understand what he said to her.
Today we're finishing Luke 2 with Jesus at twelve in the temple. This passage gets taught incorrectly a lot, so we're going to slow down a

Not Everything Is for Everyone: Luke 2:22-40
Two people recognize the Messiah on the same day, in the same temple. God gives one of them a private word and the other a public one. That difference has a lot to say about how God works through you when He starts giving you spiritual insight.
Today we're in Luke 2:22-40 with Simeon and Anna. We'll talk about why Mary needed purification, what the two birds tell us about this family, how the Hol

The God Who Locates You: Listener Questions and the Sacred Echo

To Know Him and To Make Him Known: Luke 2:1-21
So many of us read Luke chapter 2 as the Christmas story, but we don't recognize how strategic God was in the timing of it. Politically and spiritually, we see God's perfect timing and intention reveals His heart for humanity. In today's episode, we take a look at what it means for us and how we can know Him and make Him known.

Your Past Doesn't Disqualify You, It Prepares You: Luke 1:67-80
For nine months, Zechariah couldn't say a word. The man whose entire job was to speak on behalf of God to the people of God lost his voice because fear got louder than God's. And the very first thing he does when that voice comes back is prophesy.
Today we finish Luke 1 with Zechariah's prophecy. We'll talk about what it means to b

Mary's song is one of the most beautiful things in all of Scripture, and I don't want us to rush past what she says in the second line. She calls God her Savior. The young woman God chose to carry His Son understood that she needed rescuing just like the rest of us, and she said it out loud in the middle of her own worship. That te

Have you ever wondered why, if you are really favored by God, life still feels this hard? A lot of us quietly carry that question.

There are things that keep us from hearing God, and fear is one of the loudest. Not because God stops speaking, but because fear gets between us and what He is saying.

What Is a Gospel? How to Read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John
Before we open the Gospel of Luke, there's a question worth answering: what exactly is a gospel? Most of us have read these four books without ever stopping to ask what kind of writing they are, and that one gap changes everything about how we read them. Gospel is a genre. These are ancient biographies of Jesus, written by four different men to four different audiences, and they were never meant t
