It is good to examine our beliefs and practices in light of scripture. Did they originate from God or were they invented by man? In other words: “By what authority are we doing these things?” Let’s talk about authority today as we study God’s word together. We’ll see how Jesus skillfully answered a question with a question, and what we can learn about Christ and authority. Jesus’ skillful reply to a sneaky question. What God said during Jesus’ transfiguration that validates Christ’s authority. Jesus’s authority in the church. Why the words Jesus spoke on earth were automatically authoritative. Do you know what will judge you? The Bible tells us plainly! What Jesus did with the words our Heavenly Father gave him. Where the apostles got their doctrine, and why it’s still authoritative today. Why it’s wrong to add to or subtract from scripture.

What happens at home impacts the neighborhood, workplace, school, and church. It matters! So let’s talk about the home, and how our homes can be an influence for good. What it means to have influence. Do you have influence? You might think you don’t, but listen to this! What salt and leaven have to do with your influence. The life-changing influence of God’s word. The influence of a husband and father. What it means to teach children diligently. What a Philippian jailer can teach you about family influence. Why an often-overlooked Christian meant so much to the apostle Paul and the church at Corinth. The influence of a wife and mother. Why Solomon’s wives and Jezebel prove not all powerful influence is good. The timeless influence of the virtuous woman. Why a “price far above rubies” is a rich, remarkable compliment. The influence a Christian wife can have on the home, even if her husband isn’t a believer. The influence of a child.

Our souls are valuable. Jesus asked, “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul” (Mt. 16:26)? This broadcast searches the scriptures to see the soul of man, its importance and its meaning to God.
