Listen to God (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The opening words of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount aren’t a checklist for better living. The Beatitudes are something deeper: a revelation of God’s heart and a picture of the qualities He treasures. In this episode, we revisit a powerful 2006 sermon that invites us to look beyond the familiar words of the Beatitudes and discover the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ revolutionary message. Are we listening?

Read excerpt
Why do we stand up for God? And what really motivates us? In this episode, Phil explores the heart behind our convictions and reminds us that standing for God is ultimately about love, faith, and devotion. Recorded over 30 years ago when Phil was a teenager, the audio is a little grainy, but the message is anything but dated. This timeless lesson still challenges and inspires us to consider what we stand for - and why.

Read excerpt
Let's live with passion—but make sure our greatest passion is reserved for God.
