We are continuing our study on the Radical Jesus. This is the final lesson in the section on radical surrender. Jesus gave us a principle from which we cannot escape--that a servant is not greater than his or her master. The spiritual principle is simple, we are to surrender to Jesus like He surrendered to the Heavenly Father. You are sure to be challenged in today's podcast as we come to the practical application of Christ's teaching on the surrendered life.

We are beginning a new section in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus. Today's topic will be on Radical Compassion. The better we understand the radical compassion that defines Jesus, the more we will be able to grasp the compassion genuine followers of Jesus should be living. Jesus is our perfect example of what it means to compassionately love others. This is the love we are to live which will cause us to seek the eternal and temporal well-being of others. This message will surely challenge you.

The Radical Jesus Part 21
Last week we began digging into the wonderful subject of divine compassion. The radical nature of Christ's compassion towards the rebel human race is staggering and beyond comprehension. Yet we should seek to comprehend His compassion to the best of our ability. Last week's study ended with a brief glimpse at how God's compassion is interwoven into His omniscience (all-knowing). I will pick up where we left off last week to delve deeper in the correlation between God's omniscience and compassion. You will be enlightened.

For the last two weeks we have been studying the radical nature of divine compassion and I will address this subject again today to bring some practical application. We will look at a couple of Christ's parables that address the issue of compassion and how true followers of Jesus should be living out compassion on a daily basis. We will see the great privilege that is bestowed upon genuine believers to be Christ's ambassadors to a world in rebellion against Him. This is a very high calling and is extremely important for us to understand. To this we are called.

We are beginning a new section in our continuing study on The Radical Jesus titled Radical Sacrifice. Today's lesson will concentrate upon the eternal dimension of Christ's sacrifice which will reveal another aspect of His tremendous love for mankind.

It is just the reality of the world in which we live that whenever compassion is shown to those in need there is sacrifice involved. This study is sure to challenge you, so give a listen and grow in your knowledge of God.

The Radical Jesus Part 24
In today's lesson we will look at some practical ways how genuine Christians are to sacrifice their lives for Jesus. We will learn how Christ's life is the perfect example and standard of how true followers of Jesus are to live. We will dig into a couple of Christ's parables that teach us what it means to sacrifice ourselves for Jesus. Then we will examine a little of Paul's teaching on the matter. In this fallen world suffering and sacrifice are realities from which nobody can escape. The question is, "Who will we sacrifice and suffer for." This question is clearly answered in a very practical way.

This is the introduction to our new teaching series on First Peter. Before we dig into the book itself we need to look at its author and why he wrote the book.

First Peter Part 12
In this lesson on 1 Peter 2:7-8 we will learn that there are only two possible responses we can give to Jesus. Either we believe in Him or we refuse to believe in Him. How we live in this world is directly defined by our response. Not just that, our eternity is defined by it as well. Today's study is of tremendous importance so do not miss it.

First Peter Part 13
Today's Study will be on First Peter 2:9-10. There are a few different topics that we will dig into such as what it means to be chosen and that all true followers of Jesus are part of a royal priesthood and a holy nation. Though these topics are encouraging, my favorite is that we belong to Jesus. This lesson has some very challenging ideas so get yourself ready to learn and grow in Jesus.

First Peter Part 17
In keeping with our study of First Peter we come to a portion of his teaching in chapter 2 verses 21-22 that address the subject of suffering. I know that suffering is not a happy topic, so we are prone to avoid it like a plague. Yet suffering is a reality from which we cannot escape. This means that it is very wise for us to learn about suffer so that we can be victorious through it when it does come our way. In this study we will learn how we are to suffer as true followers of Jesus. You will be challenged by this lesson.
