Faith and Famine: Trusting God in the Departure
Dr. Roger L. Smith discusses the theme of investment, particularly investing faith in God during difficult times. It uses the story of Ruth and Naomi to illustrate this concept, highlighting their decision to leave Moab and return to Judah after a famine. Dr Smith emphasizes that faith often requires making decisions without guarantees, trusting in God's goodness and power even when resources are scarce. It also stresses the importance of recognizing God's work amidst chaos, as demonstrated by Naomi's willingness to follow God's leading despite her dire circumstances. Ultimately, Dr. Smith encourages listeners to become familiar with God's voice and to practice obedience in small things, preparing themselves to take radical steps of faith when called upon.

Preston Sander's message focuses on discernment in faith, family, and feelings, emphasizing its importance for Christians. It stresses distinguishing between truth and error and between what's best and what's better, all within the framework of God's word, not personal opinions. Preston underscores the need to identify essential doctrines for salvation and warns against false teachings and religions. He uses the story of Adam and Eve to illustrate how Satan distorts God's word. He urges listeners to be alert, sober-minded, and set their hope on Christ.

The Victory of Truth

Dr. Roger Smith
John 21:1-22:19
Dr. Smith emphasizes the resurrection of Jesus as the most significant event in creation, where God's kingdom triumphed over the world's. This pivotal moment, a once-for-all sacrifice, challenges our understanding of life and death. The initial response to this truth is often disbelief and attempts to rationalize it, as seen with Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb. Accepting this transformative truth requires a process of wrestling with it, allowing it to reshape our worldview. The personal encounter with the resurrected Jesus and believing in His message, even without physical proof, is essential for genuine faith and transformation.

Dr. Roger Smith
John 17: Divinity Invested 7
In his high priestly prayer, Jesus paused to pray not only for his followers at that moment but for all who would believe in Him. He prayed for unity and witness, vital components of the mission given to the body of Christ. Jesus prayed that believers would be one, just as He and the Father are one, so the world may believe in Him.
Jesus shifted His prayer to include believers from all time, praying for their unity. He highlighted the importance of believing through the word of the apostles, emphasizing the unique blessing for those who believe without seeing. Jesus' prayer reveals that faith is directly tied to the word of his disciples, now preserved in the New Testament.
