Women's Bible Study
Lisa Laizure teaches a Women's Bible Study in Phoenix Arizona. Her greatest desire is to have women connect the dots between their everyday life and their faith in Jesus. She believes strongly in the sovereignty of God and in the Bible as our final authority. Her passion is getting fellow Christians to understand the importance of reading and studying God’s Word on a daily basis. She and her husband Rob have written nine books including "Remind Me" and "Discouraged".
Episodes
The Rapture - Stop Clinging to This!
Why do so many Christians cling to a pre-tribulation rapture even after seeing the verses examined in context? In this study, we’ll explore why deeply rooted traditions can be hard to break and how we can learn to read prophecy through Scripture itself—not simply through what we’ve always been taught.
God in the Pain?
When good things happen, we are so grateful for God being involved in our lives, but…what happens when something bad happens? The tragedy, the heartache, the pain. Is God involved in that, too? Join us today as we talk about how intricately involved God is in ALL things in our lives!
Lost in Different Ways
Today we will be talking about the older brother of the prodigal son who is filled with pride and self righteousness and we will ask the question: "Do I look more like the prodigal son or the older brother?" We will show you an illustration about a jar that will point out why we can never think we are better than anyone else!
The Rapture - Reading the Bible the right way.
To understand the rapture, we may need to read the Bible differently than we’ve been taught. Instead of viewing prophecy through a Western mindset, Scripture points us toward an Israel-centered perspective focused on the return of Jesus and God’s promises to His people.
What If You're WRONG?
Your religion. The way you were raised. The church you belong to. What the media is telling you. What if everything you have been taught is wrong? Do you REALLY want to know? Join us as we talk about the ONLY way to get to God, and for some people, they may have to walk away from what they have known all their lives in order to receive the truth!
Wandering away from Jesus
Have you wandered away from your faith? Has the world enticed you to follow it instead of Jesus? How does God feel about that? You would be amazed at the answer! Join us today for a study on the Prodigal son and the incredible love his father has for him as he welcomes him back home!
The Rapture - Why the timing matters.
Joel Richardson talks about the Rapture! Many Christians have been taught that the rapture will happen before the tribulation. We’ve seen it in movies, read it in books like the Left Behind series, and heard well-known pastors confidently preach it. But what if the timing of the rapture doesn’t unfold the way many expect? Could it shake people’s faith?
Tough Times Change Us
The wilderness times in our lives are what God uses to change us! On the other side of the wilderness, we will know God better and trust Him more.
The Cost of Following Jesus
Do we understand what following Jesus really means?” What does it mean when He says there is a "cost" to following Him?
Israel Defies Human Logic
Why should we believe the Bible? One powerful reason is Israel. What God promised about the land, the Jewish people, and their future is unfolding before our eyes exactly as He said it would. And if God has been faithful to keep His promises to Israel, then we can trust that everything else He says in Scripture is true as well.
Moses. Jesus. You.
If you are a follower of Jesus, your life matters in such an amazing way! Today, we will see how the lives of Moses and Jesus were a part of this epic story from creation to salvation and how their story should affect ours!
Narrow Road to Salvation
With all the religions in the world, how do I know which one is right? How do I know my belief system will get me to heaven? Join us today as Jesus tells us what the narrow path to heaven really looks like!
How Were They Saved?
How were people in the Old Testament saved if Jesus is the only way to God? What about people today who have never heard His name? And if the Jewish people rejected Jesus, does that mean God is finished with Israel forever? Join us as we continue through Romans and answer these important questions about salvation, faith, and God’s plan for Israel.
Is Your Heart Hardening?
Pharaoh's life wasn't going as he expected. Moses was in Egypt with a message from God: "Let My people go!" But Pharaoh refused, and his heart became hard toward God, which begs the question: how can we keep our hearts from getting that way when things don't go our way?
Is God Unfair?
When something goes wrong in our lives, our instinct is often to blame God—as if it must be His fault. But what if we’re asking the wrong question? Join us as we wrestle with this: Is God really unfair to us… or are we being unfair to Him?
MOST Will NOT Believe
As we tell people about Jesus, the reality is, many if not most, won’t listen or believe. The Bible explains why—and we’ll talk about that today.
Checklist Christianity
When people become followers of Jesus, their natural tendency is to make a checklist of all the things they should do to make God happy with them. They think they should do more, pray more, serve more, but in the process, they get burned out and discouraged. Join us today as we help you break free and change that mentality as we show you how God sees you and how that alone will change your life!
Prepared for End Times?
This video from Luke was recorded many years ago, and since we recently hosted an End Times Timeline Conference, I thought it would be helpful to include a session from that event featuring Joel Richardson.
Now It's Your Turn
We know Jesus today because the message was passed from person to person, starting with the early disciples who witnessed Him firsthand. Before leaving, Jesus commanded them to go and tell others—and that mission continues with us. The question isn’t if we share, but how we do it.
Can Satan Do Miracles?
Today, we will see God produce miracles through Moses as He turns a stick into a snake and water into blood. The problem is that Satan does the exact same thing through Pharaoh's magicians, which begs the question: if Satan can reproduce God’s miracles, how do I know what is God and what is not? Join us for a very important lesson today regarding how Satan gets to us, and it doesn’t always happ
WORRIED? You SHOULDN'T be!
Worry! We all feel it, but Jesus knew in His day that people spent countless hours worrying about things completely out of their control, so in today’s lesson, we will talk about how we can stop this!
What if NOBODY TOLD YOU?
What if you had never heard about Jesus—where would you spend eternity? There is no Plan B. We are God’s plan to get the gospel to others. Eternity is on the line… so why do we stay quiet?
God's Plan Makes No Sense
Moses confronts Pharaoh, and it doesn't go as planned. Moses is left confused and frustrated with God. Join us today as we see what to do when God does something different than we think He should!
Afraid of WHAT?
Jesus continually told His followers: "Do not be afraid, do not be afraid." But then He comes along and says - "Oh wait - there is one thing you really SHOULD fear!" Join us today to see what that is and learn how not to fear!!
RELIGIOUS but NOT Saved
Are most Christians truly passionate about Jesus—fully committed, bold in sharing their faith, even willing to die for Him? Probably not. And that’s surprising… because we have the full Bible—the complete truth. So why does it often seem like those in false religions are more zealous than those who follow Jesus?
God Does Care
Today, Moses will finally make it to Egypt, but along the way, we will see how he deals with marital issues and commands of God! Join us as we see why the commands that God gives us are so simple and always for our own good. We will also discuss why so many church people always want to shoot the messenger!
The Battle Against Satan
Knowing Satan is alive and well and wants to derail our mission of loving Jesus and sharing Him with others, we need a battle plan! Join us today as we learn how to go to battle and win this war!
This Changes Everything
Jesus doesn’t just claim to be a teacher or prophet—He claims to be God. If that’s true, then everything changes: the Gospel is true, the resurrection is real, and Jesus is the only way to God. That means His words aren’t optional—they determine our eternity.
Life Changing Words
Join us today as we talk about two words that should change your life!
Satan? Is that you?
Today, we will read of Jesus casting out a demon, which begs the question: how much authority does Satan have over my life? What does he want from me? Can I be possessed by a demon? Join us as we answer these questions and see 2 places where Satan is influencing this world in a big way!
When You Feel LOST
Darkness brings on fear and chaos. But Jesus said that He is the light of the world. But what does that mean for believers and non-believers? How does that affect our day-to-day lives?
Stop Making Excuses
What keeps us from God’s best? What keeps us from being used by God? Excuses. Moses used them and so do we but maybe not for the reasons you think! Join us today to see the root of why we make excuses and how it keeps us from the great place God has for us!
Are We Listening?
We spend time in prayer, but do we spend time listening to what God has to say? Join us today as we learn how God speaks, so when we have decisions to make, we can be sure His voice is what we are hearing!
You WILL Change
When confronted with sin, Jesus didn’t excuse it—He called for change. Following Jesus begins with the word REPENT. When God moves into our lives, we WILL CHANGE!
God can use DOUBT
We all have doubts. Does God REALLY care? Is God REALLY there? Is the Bible REALLY true? Join us today as we talk about why doubt just might be a really great part of your Christian life!
My View of Prayer
Tired of praying and not getting what you pray for? Maybe it’s time to revisit what prayer is all about! Join us today as we take a look at how Jesus says we should pray and I will share what I learned about God through frogs!
EVEN IF God Doesn’t
Many people are walking through hard seasons—health, marriage, work, or family—and it can feel like God is silent. But instead of letting our faith rise and fall based on outcomes, we are called to develop “EVEN IF” faith—trusting God and remaining steady even if He doesn’t answer the way we hope.
Stop Being Afraid
Every day, we are faced with different kinds of fear, and it can be debilitating. But the good news is that God never created us to be fearful! Join us today as we see what we can do to stop being afraid!!!
God's View of Prayer
Tired of praying and not getting what you pray for? Maybe it’s time to revisit what prayer is all about! Join us today as we take a look at how Jesus says we should pray and I will share what I learned about God through frogs!
Pastors, Commentaries, or AI?
Are all Pastors, Commentaries, Study bibles or AI right all the time? No. So how do we get answers for people about God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, creation, and the resurrection?
Feeling Unappreciated?
Do you feel unappreciated and overworked? Do you feel like you do everything for everyone and you are getting tired of it? Join us today as we talk about Martha – a woman with an “A” personality who wants to get things done but is frustrated because nobody will help! We will learn a valuable lesson about what to do when we fall into the “what about ME?” trap!
WHY?
"Why? Why is this happening to me? Why are You not stopping the pain?" These are questions we ask God during our personal wilderness crisis, so join us today as we see the bigger picture of why God does what He does!!
Biblical Iran & Defending our Faith.
As Christians, we talk a lot about what we believe. But do you know WHY you believe those things? Because knowing what we believe is one thing. Being able to explain why we believe is another.
The Wilderness CHANGES US
The wilderness is a period of time where we learn about ourselves and about our relationship with God. Do I REALLY believe in Jesus? Do I REALLY trust He will take care of me? Do I REALLY believe He has a purpose for what I am going through? Join us today as we learn from Moses how to get closer to God through the wilderness as he meets God at the burning bush!
Born Again Changes EVERYTHING
A house isn’t built in a day. Construction unfolds step by step, with daily progress that moves it toward its intended design. In the same way, when we are born again in Jesus, God begins a lifelong building project in us. Growth should be ongoing. Change should be evident. We are becoming what He designed us to be.
Your Past Isn't Final
Regret. Shame. Embarrassment. Discouragement. All of these emotions you feel because of a bad decision you made at some point in your life. You feel you have crossed that line, and you are convinced that God could never use you, but what we learn today is that is NOT TRUE! Moses teaches us that God is the great Master Chess player and He can override with good anything we have ever done in our
Peace in Your Life.
Join us today as we learn from a town that Jesus cursed what we need to do to bring peace into our lives!
The Question Nobody Asked.
Today, we are finally finishing Romans 9 as we talk about why religion doesn’t work. We will wrestle with the question, “Is God unfair? Then we’re going to take a fun little historical journey to see when the word “Israelite” became “Jew” even though nobody has ever asked that question! Join us as we continue in the book of Romans.
A Leap of Faith
Can you imagine putting your child in a basket and launching him into the Nile River and then walking away? That is exactly what happens in today's lesson as Moses' mother learns how to take a leap of faith and trust God for something she has no control over...the life of her child! For you it might not be a child but instead your health, your job, or your finances that you need to release to God
Get Em God
Join us today as we see Jesus teaching the disciples important lessons about what "greatness" really means, why we are all on the "same team" and why Jesus doesn't "rain down fire" on those that hurt Him!
God is Doing Something
Are you confused about what God is doing in your wilderness—whether it’s a health issue, school, work, marriage, or struggles with your children? When life feels overwhelming, and nothing makes sense, what if the problem isn’t the situation but the perspective? In this lesson, we step back from the little picture and begin to see the big picture of what God may be doing—discovering that what we’re
The Highs and Lows of Life
Life is filled with highs and lows so join us today to find out how to make it through the lows!
How to READ the BIBLE!
As Christians, we should read the bible. We should WANT to read the bible. But why don’t we? I would say maybe we don’t understand it but after these last 15 weeks in our Puzzled by the Bible series we can’t say that anymore! Now we know a lot ABOUT the Bible but maybe we don’t know how to read it or where to start! Join us today for our final lesson in this series as we pull everything together a
NOT what the VERSE MEANS
When we read the Bible, do we read verses in context—or do we pull a verse, make it about ourselves, and miss what God was actually saying? That happens more often than we realize. But part of growing in our faith is learning how to read Scripture the way it was meant to be read. Today, as we continue in Romans 9—a very controversial chapter—we’ll see why context truly matters.
Bible Claims. Archaeology Confirms.
Archeology from the New Testament! Today we will see Biblical locations in Israel that have been uncovered which prove the Bible is true! Synagogues where Jesus taught in, Golgotha, the tomb of Jesus, pools, tunnels, and steps!
God in the Wilderness
We all have wilderness times in our lives. It is those days, weeks, months, and years when life has changed. Maybe it is a relationship, a health issue, a divorce, a death, or a tragedy, and we want the wilderness to be over. But maybe just maybe the wilderness is the perfect place to be! Join us today for Lesson 1 in our new series on the life of Moses called "Wilderness Deception!"
Losing my AWE of Jesus
Join us today as we see the importance of being awestruck by God and you will be amazed at the one area it affects the most when we are not!
Bad Choices. God Redeems.
Have you ever wanted something so badly that you ran ahead of God instead of waiting on Him? Maybe you’re living with the consequences of that decision right now. In today’s lesson, we’ll see that very thing happen in Scripture—and discover the hopeful truth that even when we make bad choices, God is still at work redeeming our story.
Finding Hope in the Storm
The Storms of life. Someone once said we are either going into a storm, we are in the middle of a storm or we are coming out of a storm and if that is true – we need to learn how to handle the storms of life when the waves rise and fall and the wind is howling all around us. Join us for our last lesson in the book of Acts as we see how Paul handles the storm on his final journey to Rome which wi
When God Says "NO"
What do you do when you pray for something and have faith that God will come through but…He doesn’t? Join us for our Throwback Friday as we learn what biblical faith really is!
True Salvation "IF"
Can we lose our salvation? Once we are saved, are we always saved? These questions are debated in the church, but I think we are asking the wrong question, so let's see what Jesus Himself says about this.
Keeping Faith When Life Falls Apart
When something bad happens that alters your life – how do you keep your faith? The answer: look at your life from the perspective of each unwanted circumstance is a piece that God is putting together to make one big beautiful puzzle! Join us to see how God wants to use our life puzzles!
Satan Has No Authority
Our lesson today will center on Satan, and his little band of demons, and the questions we will ask are: Does Satan have any authority in my life? Who is he really? What can and can't he do? Do I need to fear him? Join us as Jesus meets a demon-possessed man and with a mere word -- the demons flee!
Are there BIBLE CONTRADICTIONS?
If the Bible is inspired by God, CAN there be Contradictions? Actually, no! So what do we do with these supposed contradictions? Today we will show you how to find the answers!
God Draws. We Choose.
The Bible says that before we can become a Christian, we have to be drawn by God. So, how does God draw us to Him?Does He draw everyone? Does everyone have a choice to say yes or no to His drawing?
Do Manuscript Differences Matter?
5,800 Biblical Manuscripts have been found. That is an amazing number. But in those 5800 there are over 400,000 variants or variations. In other words – not all the manuscripts say the same thing. Should this cause us to be concerned? Does that in any way destroy our faith in the Bible? What about those 25 verses that probably shouldn’t be in the Bible? Join us today as we put your mind at ease ab
Feeling let down by God
Feeling Let Down By God - What happens when we trust God but He doesn’t seem to come through for us? Does that mean He is untrustworthy? Or maybe we are not looking at “trusting God” the right way! Join us as we see what the right perspective on trusting God really means!
Overcoming FEAR
Today, we will be talking about fear and how to overcome the sudden panic we feel when something frightening comes into our lives! Join us as we see from the life of Jesus how to live our lives fear-free!
Vending Machine Jesus?
Why do we follow Jesus? Is it because we believe He will make our lives easier, more comfortable, or more successful? Many people approach faith like a transaction—do something good, attend church, give an offering, and expect blessings in return. But is that really what it means to follow Jesus?
Paul: The makings of a Dateline
Today we will see all the makings of a Dateline television show: Persecution, Politics, Divisiveness and a Murder plot. Join us as we will see how the Apostle Paul handles all of it as he keeps his eye on Jesus even though his world keeps falling apart!
What's In My Heart Lesson
What's In My Heart? Do you roll your eyes when you hear about Jesus? Did you "used to" believe until tragedy struck or God did not answer your prayers like you wanted? Do you have very little time for the things of God because of work, family, sports or hobbies? Join us today as Jesus explains the Parable of the Sower and the Seeds as we look within our own hearts to see which soil, or state of
When you are the Target
What do we do when someone gossips or slanders us? We will learn the answers as we see how Paul dealt with both subjects!
Jesus in the Old Testament
Jesus is all over the Old Testament. That isn’t something we hear much about but today we will see how Jesus points to Himself in Old Testament passages and we will learn why that matters! Join us today as we continue in our Puzzled by the Bible series.
The New Testament - Are there "LOST GOSPELS?"
Are the books in the New Testament the right ones? How did they get there? Are we missing any? What about these new finds like the Gospel of Thomas or the Gospel of Peter - should they be in our Bible? Join us today as we find out why you can be sure that the Bible you hold in your hand has the right books in it!
Old Testament easily explained
The Old Testament. What’s it all about? How was it put together? How do we know we have the right books in there? Laws? Genealogies? Weirdly dressed prophets? Today we will learn history and timelines so you can see how the Old Testament fits perfectly for the arrival of Jesus!
Christians should read the Bible. WHY AREN’T THEY?
Christians should read the bible but why is it that so many people claiming to be Christians never do? Maybe because the Bible seems confusing and daunting and without knowing the big picture, it makes no sense. Today we begin a 16-week series called Puzzled by the Bible. Join us today for Lesson 1 as we get an overview of the Bible is all about!
The place to hear from God
Where should we go to hear from God? How about church? How about Bible Study? But why is that not happening? Why are people bored at church? Why are people not hearing form God in the places they should be? Join us today to find out!
God's Kingdom. Your Kingdom.
As a Christian, we are confronted with the question: Who is the ruler of my life? Do you live for your kingdom or God's kingdom? Join us as we discuss the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of this world and we will learn that each kingdom has a different ruler and a different agenda. We will be challenged to ask ourselves-which kingdom do I live in?
How To Be Passionate About God
We all have a passion for something but is what we are passionate about really THAT important in regards to eternity? Are we passionate about the one thing we should be passionate about – Jesus? And if we aren’t – how can we be?
The Prostitute and the Pharisee
Today, we will see Jesus at the home of a Pharisee: a very religious man who adhered to the Law of Moses. But then a Prostitute showed up and the Pharisee was angry because Jesus showed her compassion and care. Today we will be challenged to look at our own lives and determine – who do I resemble the most? The Pharisee or Prostitute?
