How do you trust in Jesus?Script:This was a question asked by a young student in AWANA, and I was caught off guard. I gave my typical ABCs of the gospel — admit you are a sinner, believe that Jesus is the Son of God who died on the cross for your sins, and confess Him as the resurrected King over your life. I said that trusting in Jesus is something that happens in our hearts, and it’s God who makes it happen. But I wasn’t totally satisfied with my answer — and looking back, I don’t think she was either.I gave it some thought, and here’s what I think I should have said.I could have opened with: Well, who do you trust? Maybe your parents — your mom and dad. What does that look like? When I trust them, it means I believe they’ll do what they say. I believe they love me. I believe they’ll take care of me. I believe that we’re family.So, to trust in Jesus means you believe what He says — one of those things being that we’re sinners. You believe He is who He says He is: the Son of God who died on the cross for your sins. And you believe what He did, and what He tells you to do — to confess Him as the resurrected King over your life.To trust is to actively put your faith — your belief — in who someone says they are, what they say they’ll do, and what that means for you.I trust that God will use whatever sliver of gospel hope I had in my answer and use it for His glory, as He always does. Even inadequate answers can receive amazing grace. I won’t be caught off guard next time — and I’m glad to have learned a better answer to this question myself.Shownotes:AWANA Messagehttps://www.diveindigdeep.com/blog/messages/spirit-and-truthKids Q&A Playlisthttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_vN-vM53O-8cmwa4fcIaJk6GhnnjrgxXPreaching and Teaching:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL761H3XZh_ND_RS09G8_SxPmcrw82GSVIAll Messageshttps://www.diveindigdeep.com/messagesLinks:https://www.diveindigdeep.com/https://newsletter.diveindigdeep.com/https://www.instagram.com/diveindigdeephttps://www.youtube.com/@soundwordsfm https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soundwords

Larry Sanger is the co-founder of Wikipedia, and he recently published his testimony online. TGC’s Trevin Wax shared his highlights, and I wanted to share my reflections and resolutions after reading it.Script:First, I am resolved to answer questions. I teach high school Sunday School, and Sanger specifically pointed out that his questions as a youth were met with contempt. I don’t want to be a teacher who discourages questions. Instead, I want to encourage them.Second, I am resolved to witness well. Sanger said that some of his favorite people were Christians, and some of them were extremely intelligent. He found this strange, and I want to be that type of believer! I often forget that how we live really does have an impact on people’s perception of faith.Third, I am resolved to preach and teach God’s Word. Sanger was surprised that the Bible could withstand interrogation — and that it was interesting to him! I want to preach and teach in such a way that God’s Word can speak for itself and remain engaging.Video and transcript:https://www.diveindigdeep.com/blog/how-does-a-skeptical-philosopher-become-a-christianShownotes:https://larrysanger.org/2025/02/how-a-skeptical-philosopher-becomes-a-christian/https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/trevin-wax/wikipedias-founder-converts-christianity/Links:https://www.diveindigdeep.com/https://newsletter.diveindigdeep.com/https://www.instagram.com/diveindigdeephttps://www.youtube.com/@soundwordsfm https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soundwords

Don’t Preach a CommentaryScript:This was the title of a Gospel-Centered Discipleship article by Michael C. Lyons — and I absolutely agree with him. He states three symptoms of Bible commentary preaching, and I want to interact with each of them.The first symptom is appealing to Hebrew and Greek. While I always look at the original languages, it’s true that this often seems to be more helpful for the person in the pulpit than for the people in the pew. I want to preach in such a way that underscores the truth without undermining our English Bibles.The second symptom is quoting all the authors. If you’ve followed me, you can be sure that I’ve read a lot of material to study for my sermons. But I want to keep things fresh — and I’m encouraged to say what I have seen in Scripture with my own words.The third symptom is preaching nuts and bolts. I do practice big idea preaching, and this is a reminder that the congregation can easily get lost in the details. As I write my sermons, I need to guide my hearers to what’s most important.Shownoteshttps://gcdiscipleship.com/article-feed/dont-preach-a-commentaryLinkshttps://www.diveindigdeep.com/https://newsletter.diveindigdeep.com/https://www.instagram.com/diveindigdeephttps://www.youtube.com/@soundwordsfm https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soundwords

"But the countercultural truth is that preachers are more like opera singers than like athletes." -- David MathisScript:"Preachers are more like opera singers than athletes." This is a quote by David Mathis from his Desiring God article No One’s Born to Preach: The Myth and Truth of Pulpit ‘Gifting’. He explains that while athletes peak in their teens and twenties, musicians and singers often peak much later in life. He encourages preachers to continue developing, cultivating, and practicing their gifting. I can relate to this, and I want to share my experience as both a worship leader and a preacher. I’ve been a worship leader longer than I’ve been a preacher, and I believe I’ve gotten better over time. Yes, it takes practice, but I’ve also had the opportunity to lead in a variety of settings: Sunday mornings, larger events like retreats, and smaller settings like prayer meetings. As a preacher, I’m getting my reps in on Sunday mornings, but also in different areas, such as speaking to children and teaching in Sunday School. To my fellow preachers, I recommend giving this article a read. I pray that God continues to grow me as I steward my gifts of worship leading and preaching for His glory.Shownoteshttps://www.desiringgod.org/articles/no-ones-born-to-preachLinkshttps://www.diveindigdeep.com/https://newsletter.diveindigdeep.com/https://www.instagram.com/diveindigdeephttps://www.youtube.com/@soundwordsfm https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soundwords

"I love theology, but theology isn’t meant to live in your head; it’s meant to get into your bones." -- Ian Harber Script: "Theology isn’t meant to live in your head; it’s meant to get into your bones." This is a quote from Ian Harber in his interview with Ivan Mesa, On My Shelf: Life and Books with Ian Harber by TGC. He shares this in the context of reading old books that focus on the Christian life. He mentions On the Christian Life by John Calvin, which I also resonated deeply with. The themes of holiness and obedience are always relevant, no matter the context, and it’s an excellent example of how Reformed theology remains both relevant and applicable. Even affliction and suffering are accounted for. I highly recommend giving this book—and the article—a read.

"We should instead imagine culture as a language we all speak. It’s communication. We constantly receive culture and are formed by it.

I’m close enough to see the Pasadena fires from my work at the hospital. I’m humbled to have my home. I’m grateful for the safety of my family. I’m praying for the first responders and firefighters. I’m mourning with those who have lost more than I know. As someone who values books, it is not lost to me that they are just words on paper. The books themselves are of little value — but the stories, the ideas, and the messages are what moves us. That’s the power that’s worth preserving. God used the imagery of fire to describe how his word would burn up the deceiving lies and empty promises of the false prophets. I pray that this would be a wake up call for all of LA. My heart is heavy, but my eyes are opened. Jesus Christ burns bright. As soon as I finished recording this video, I got a text to be ready for potential evacuation. We’re okay — but the churches in my network as well as personal friends and family have evacuated and lost homes. Your prayers are much appreciated. https://youtu.be/9US39fYDe60 Links https://www.diveindigdeep.com/ https://newsletter.diveindigdeep.com/ https://www.instagram.com/diveindigdeep https://www.youtube.com/@soundwordsfm https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/soundwords

Subscribe: https://anchor.fm/soundwords  Aaron: http://musicgoon.com  Barnabas: https://www.instagram.com/barnabaswpiper Barnabas grew up as a pastor's kid in Minneapolis, MN and professed faith in Jesus as a young child. He grew up having a love/hate relationship with the church and struggling to find his own identity in Christ. After high school he moved to Illinois to attend Wheaton College. In his mid-20s God did a significant work in Barnabas's life to humble him, show him what repentance and grace truly look like, and teach him what it means to genuinely know and serve Jesus. Barnabas worked in Christian publishing for nearly fifteen years before joining staff at Immanuel in 2019. He is a writer, the author of multiple books, and has co-hosted several podcasts. He has two amazing daughters, one dog, and zero cats. Really the only major crisis in Barnabas's life is a life-long loyalty to Minnesota sports teams. Barnabas answered these questions about his new book, Hoping for Happiness: 1. What does it mean that you are a "recovering cynic?" 2. "Whatever we find happiness in, we are united by our desire for work that matters and relationships that fulfill." -- How did you discern this in your own life? 3. Hanging our happiness on hooks - can you explain this? How did you come up with this illustration? 4. Submitted question: What are some habits or disciplines you do when you find yourself hanging your happiness on the wrong hooks? 5. Evangeliguilt -- what does this mean and what can we do about it? 6. You speak from your own experience, speaking frankly about your own losses and disappointments. Was this difficult to write? How did you find the courage to share? 7. When did you start writing the book? Did you have the events of 2020 (coronavirus, political, race relations) in your mind? 8. Your other books include Help My Unbelief and The Pastors Kid. This makes for a really great trilogy of books. Do you sense a common theme or way they relate to each other in your thinking? 9.

I delivered the Children's Worship message on Sunday, May 17, 2020. Watch the video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/1NqeLCaZdbo Main point: Trust in Jesus, he is better than the temple! Talking points: 1. The goal is to meet with God. 2. The church does not equal the temple. 3. Trust in Jesus, he is better than the temple! Steps to take: 1. Start trusting in Jesus. 2. Strengthen your trust in Jesus. Psalm 84:10–12 (ESV):  For a day in your courts is better   than a thousand elsewhere.  I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God   than dwell in the tents of wickedness.  For the LORD God is a sun and shield;   the LORD bestows favor and honor.  No good thing does he withhold   from those who walk uprightly.  O LORD of hosts,   blessed is the one who trusts in you!
