“By this, we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.” Join Dr. Tyler Ball as he works through 1 John 2:1-6 and its implications for an authentic faith. Does the confession of our mouths match the confession of our hearts? John clearly tells us in this passage that an authentic faith will obey God’s commands. We won’t be perfect, but we should see progress. Remember, obeying God is not a burden of points to check off our lists; rather, obeying God is a blessing that comes from knowing how much Jesus loved us by taking care of the condemnation for our sin.

“God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all.” The last four words of this sentence may be bad grammar, but it’s beautiful theology. Join Dr. Tyler Ball as he unpacks 1 John 1:5-10 and works through the real battle between darkness and light in the hearts of Christians. Tune in as this passage gives much needed help in leaving the darkness behind and dwelling in the light of Christ; because the truth is, if you’re walking in darkness, you aren’t walking with Jesus.

What does an authentic faith look like? To rightly answer this question, we need to look at its foundation. Join Dr. Tyler Ball as he begins a new series in the book of 1 John.

On what account will you enter the Kingdom of Heaven one day? When you stand before the Lord at the end of your life, will Jesus declare that He knows you? Will you base your entry on your resume of mighty works or on the perfect work of Christ? Join Dr. Tyler Ball as he wrestles through Matthew 7:21-23, one of the scariest passages in the Bible. You say you know Jesus, but does He know you? If you’re able, put things aside for a few moments and really listen to this episode. It may be the most important one yet.

Matthew 7:15-20 is clear. A good heart produces good fruit, and a bad heart produces bad fruit. But what makes fruit good or bad?

Tune in for healthy introspection and a beneficial challenge.

Matthew 7:13-14 tells us there are two roads to travel in life, and they lead to two distinct destinations. The narrow road leads to eternal life, and the wide road leads to eternal destruction.
