Episode Notes: How God Encourages Us - Part 1. (1 Kings 19: 1-21)

Everybody gets discouraged. It doesn’t matter who you are or what season of life you’re in; sooner or later, you hit a moment where the wind goes out of your sails. You feel disheartened. Dispirited. Like someone letting the air out of your emotional balloon.

So, the question isn’t if that happens, the question is: what do you do when it happens?

That’s what we’re going to explore today because one of the most famous, powerful, courageous figures in all of Scripture—Elijah—hit a wall of discouragement so hard it nearly crushed him. And the way God dealt with him is incredibly helpful for us all to know…..

Episode Notes: How God Challenges You. (11 Kings 18: 1-46)

Does God challenge you, and if so, how does God challenge someone? Well, the short answer is, spoiler alert… Yes—He does, and there is a passage of Scripture where God issues a challenge so dramatic, so unforgettable, that it has become one of the most famous stories in the entire Old Testament…. And that’s what we are going to look at today….

Today's Episode: How God Teaches People. (1 Kings 17: 1-24)

What does it take for a person to prepare for ministry?

Most people immediately think, “Well, you’ve got to go to bible college or university to do that.” And if you’re talking about becoming a pastor, perhaps that’s an advantage, although plenty of people have served the Lord faithfully without ever setting foot in a university classroom. But that’s not what I mean by ministry.

According to Ephesians 4, if you have trusted Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins—if you know that issue is settled and heaven is your home—then you are already in the ministry.

Most people sitting in a pew don’t think of themselves that way, but biblically, every believer is a minister. So how then does God prepare His people to serve Him?

There are many answers to that question, but there is one fascinating passage in the Old Testament that gives us a living, breathing example of how God shapes one man for ministry, and that man was called Elijah….

Today's Episode: God’s Standard for Bad Behaviour. (1 Kings 15:16-16:34)

One of the remarkable things about Scripture is the way God teaches us. Because He doesn’t just give abstract principles, he gives illustrations, he uses stories, and he shows us the lives of ordinary people.

Last time, in chapter 15, God evaluated several kings by the standard of one man—David. But today, as we move into the second half of chapter 15 and on into chapter 16, something shifts. God still uses a human example—but this time, it’s not David, it’s Jeroboam, and that tells you something right away:

If David is God’s standard of faithfulness, now Jeroboam will become God’s standard of failure because his influence becomes the yardstick by which the next generation—and the next, and the next, right down tio this day, is judged….

Today's Episode: God’s Standard of Judgment. (1 Kings 15: 1-24)

Episode Notes:

If the Bible teaches anything, it teaches this: God judges people. That’s not a popular idea today, but it is a biblical one. But if that is so, then what standard does God use when He judges? What does that look like on a human level? Suppose God chose a person—a human being, not Himself, not His Son—and said: “This is the standard, this is the life by which I will measure others.”

In the first 24 verses of 1 Kings 15, God does this. He points to a human being and says, “This is My standard”, and then He measures two kings by that standard.

Let’s look at the passage today…..

Today's Episode: A Tale of Two Kings (1 Kings 14 1-31)

Charles Dickens once wrote one of the great classics of English literature, A Tale of Two Cities. The cities in Charles Dickens' novel were London and Paris. I’d like to borrow that title—but with a slight twist, because today’s passage could easily be called: "A Tale of Two Kings".

Because in 1 Kings 14, we meet the first two rulers of the newly divided kingdom of Israel—one in the north, one in the south. And their stories are not just historical curiosities. They are warnings. They are lessons in leadership, obedience, and consequences.

Their story is one we need to know so that we don’t repeat their mistakes….
