Remember and our memory | Deuteronomy 8:2 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Remembering God’s Faithfulness: Holding Fast to Christ. In this week’s Timberline Bible Study for September 22, 2026, we explore the biblical meaning of memory and remembrance. Scripture calls us to remember God’s faithfulness, His provision, His Word, and above all, Christ’s sacrifice. From the Passover and the stones at the Jordan to Communion and the teachings of the apostles, this message reminds us that true remembrance is an act of faith—one that shapes our lives, strengthens our hope, and
Don’t sit until you die. | 2 Kings 7:9 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode, “Don’t Sit Until You Die,” we explore 2 Kings 6:24–7:20—a powerful story of God turning impossible circumstances around overnight. As Samaria faced famine, fear, and siege, four rejected men outside the city gate chose to stop waiting for death and take a step forward.

Maybe you feel things deeply—the joy, the disappointment, the burdens of people you love, and even the pain in the world around you. But what if a tender heart is not something to hide or apologize for? What if it is a gift? God never asks us to become numb. He invites us to bring every feeling to Him. Jesus Himself wept at Lazarus’s tomb, showed deep compassion for hurting people, and carried sorrow in the garden bef
Being visionary—even a blind man can see | Pro 29:18 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In Having a Vision: Seeing God’s Purpose and Walking It Out , this Bible-based episode explores what it means to receive and live out a God-centered vision—not personal ambition, but a clear sense of what the Lord wants to accomplish through us. Drawing on Proverbs 29:18 and examples from Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Nehemiah, Esther, and Jesus, it shows how true vision begins with prayer and Scripture, requires faithful obedience amid uncertainty and opposition, and is measured by character and servi
