Confidence in Hearing God: Something can be accurate and still not be from God. That's the hardest part of discernment, and it's what we're working through today. This week we've been talking about prophecy, and a question came in about something I said on Monday: that accuracy is not the test. Today I explain what I meant, using the slave girl in Acts 16 who said something completely true while serving something demonic. I also share what happened in Maui with a tarot card reader, and something the Lord did at church on Sunday that I haven't talked about yet. Join me on an immersive Bible Study Experience.

Hearing God in Luke: Within six verses of saying Scripture had been fulfilled in their hearing, Jesus' hometown was dragging Him toward a cliff. What set them off is worth understanding. Today we're in Luke 4:16-30. Jesus announces the year of the Lord's favor, which was Jubilee, and then He stops reading Isaiah mid-sentence. He leaves out the part about vengeance, which is the part they had been waiting generations for. Then He tells two stories about God's mercy landing on outsiders, and the room turns on Him. Underneath all of it is a question worth sitting with in our own Bible study: do we want the miracle more than the miracle worker? Join me on an immersive Bible Study Experience.

Hearing God in Luke: Jesus stood up in His hometown synagogue, read Isaiah out loud, and said it was about Him. Today we're in Luke 4:14-22, where Jesus announces His mission: good news to the poor, liberty to the captives, sight to the blind. The word for liberty is the same word Luke used earlier for the forgiveness of sins. It means release, pardon, a debt wiped off the books. I also share a story from a prison in Kenya that changed how I read this passage, including one woman who stayed in her cell after her freedom had already been paid for.

The devil's first words to Jesus were "if you are the Son of God." God had just called Him exactly that. We're in Luke 4 today talking about the enemy. Who he is, how he actually operates, and why his opening move is almost always an attack on identity. He isn't trying to get you to doubt that God exists. He's trying to get you to prove something God already settled, because once you're busy proving, he can get you to do almost anything. This one is meant to give you a battle plan, not fear.

Have you ever said yes to God and then watched everything get harder? Luke 4 shows us why. We're starting Luke chapter 4 in our fall Bible study, and before we get to the three temptations, there's something in the first two verses most of us read right past. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit is the one who led Him into the wilderness. The hard season wasn't a detour from the assignment. It was part of it. Today we look at the forty days, why that number matters, and how Jesus fought as a Spirit-empowered man rather than by pulling rank. Join me on an immersive Bible Study Experience.
