- Series: Chariots of Fire
Part: 2
We see in this episode as a devastating Syrian siege brings Samaria to the brink of starvation, driving up food prices. The prophet Elisha boldly prophesies that within 24 hours the famine will end, and food will be sold cheaply in the city gate. God then causes the entire Syrian army to hear the terrifying noise of chariots, horses, and a great host approaching, making them flee in panic and abandon their camp; four starving lepers discover the empty tents filled with food and treasure, feast on it, then realize they must share the “good tidings” with the starving city—exactly fulfilling Elisha’s word, as the people plunder the supplies and prices plummet. The lepers are likened to sinners: just as they found unexpected mercy and abundance, we who were dying in sin have discovered deliverance through Christ alone and must not keep that life-saving gospel to ourselves.

Part: 1
We learn in this episode of the king of Syria’s repeated plans for secret border raids against Israel, but Elisha supernaturally overhears even the king’s private bedroom conversations and warns the king of Israel, foiling every attack. Enraged, the Syrian king sends a massive army of horses and chariots by night to capture Elisha, whose servant panics at the sight of the surrounding troops, but Elisha calmly assures him, then prays for the young man’s eyes to be opened—revealing the mountains filled with far greater heavenly horses and chariots of fire encircling and protecting them. Elisha then prays for the Syrian army to be struck blind, leads the sightless soldiers into Samaria, restores their vision, and—showing mercy instead of retaliation—instructs the king of Israel to feed them a banquet and send them home unharmed; the result is that the Syrian raids cease, as Elisha “killed” Israel’s enemies with kindness.

- Series: Saved and Secure
Part: 5
In this lesson on Colossians 2:8-10, believers are warned to beware of being carried away captive by empty philosophies, human traditions, and the basic “rudiments of the world” that diminish or lead away from Christ. In contrast, the Apostle Paul declares that in Christ dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, making believers complete in Him—providing full salvation, righteousness, and spiritual sufficiency through faith alone, with nothing more to add. This message reminds us of Christ’s all-sufficient deity and finished work, urging us to stay rooted in Him as our only hope and portion for eternity.
- Series: Rightly Dividing the Word 2
Part: 6
This episode explains what a Berean is from Acts 17:10-12, illustrating how many in the Church blindly follow wrong spiritual guidance. A true Berean is defined by three “R’s”: first, one who RECEIVES the Word with all readiness of mind; second, one who RESEARCHES the Scriptures daily to verify whether the things taught are so; and third, one who RESPONDS by believing the gospel and living it out in daily life. The noble Bereans modeled personal, diligent Bible study and discernment, an example for believers today not to follow leaders blindly but to test everything against God’s Word.

- Series: Faith
Part: 3
In this episode, we examine Luke 5:1-11, which illustrates moving “from shallow to deep water faith.” After teaching the crowd from Peter’s boat on the Sea of Galilee, Jesus instructed the unsuccessful and exhausted fishermen to launch out into the deep and let down their nets in broad daylight—the very opposite of their professional expertise—resulting in a record-breaking haul. Jesus then called Peter, Andrew, James, and John to become “fishers of men.” The account pictures Christ drawing believers from a shallow, half-hearted commitment into a deeper, wholehearted devotion and dependence on Him, while reminding us as members of the Church to set our affection on things above.

Part: 6
There is a rescue from sin and the lake of fire available for all through the Cross of Christ, but many don’t know how desperate their situation is spiritually, and they refuse the gospel. Knowing this drove the Apostle Paul all over the world to share the gospel of the grace of God, often leading to revival in places like Thessalonica. This lesson from Acts 17:1-9 recounts Paul’s ministry there on his second apostolic journey, where he reasoned in the synagogue that Jesus is the Christ. While many believed, there was also opposition that forced Paul and his companions to escape by night to Berea. This account shows how the gospel divides people and calls believers to look for Christ’s return amid persecution.

This lesson from Acts 14:8-20 recounts the Apostle Paul and Barnabas preaching the gospel in Lystra, where Paul heals a man lame from birth who had faith to be healed. The amazed crowd mistakes them for gods, but Paul and Barnabas firmly deny being deities and declare they are only men, while urging people to turn from idols to the one true and living God. Unbelieving Jews from Antioch and Iconium, however, then incite a riot, during which Paul is stoned, dragged out of the city, and left for dead. After miraculously rising, the apostle re-enters Lystra and the next day continues to Derbe—showing Paul’s fearless example of fortitude for the gospel.

Part: 4
This episode chronicles Acts 14:1-7, how the Apostle Paul and Barnabas, after being expelled from Antioch, boldly preached the gospel of grace in the synagogue at Iconium, resulting in a powerful revival where both Jews and Greeks believed. Unbelieving Jews, however, poisoned minds against the believers and created division in the city—yet Paul and Barnabas remained steadfast, testifying to the Word of His grace, while performing signs and wonders. When opposition escalated into a mob, they fled to Lystra and Derbe and continued preaching the gospel, modeling courageous, Christ-driven love, even amid division and persecution.

Part: 3
After learning in the previous two episodes of spiritual revival in Ephesus, here we examine the riot that ensued there, sparked when the silversmith Demetrius felt his business was threatened by the Apostle Paul’s gospel, which turned away many from idolatry throughout Asia. After two hours of chaos, during which companions of Paul were seized by a mob, the town clerk calmed the crowd and eventually dismissed the assembly. This account shows how the powerful spread of the Word of God produced both revival and demonic opposition, reminding believers to expect spiritual warfare and to stand firm by putting on “the whole armour of God” (Eph. 6:13).

The practice of the occult is for many a constant temptation and comes in many different forms like fortune-telling, tarot cards, astrology, and horoscopes. In this episode, we see the occult was also prevalent in Ephesus. But in Acts 19, we learn of a revival that took place when God wrought “special miracles” through the Apostle Paul and when vagabond exorcists failed to imitate His works. Consequently, many who believed in Christ confessed their evil deeds and burned their books of the occult, turning instead to the truth of the Word of God and demonstrating how the gospel triumphs over darkness when the Word is faithfully proclaimed.
