The Life and Leadership of King David (Part 2) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 329), I continue the story of David through one of the darkest and most difficult seasons of his life. From his covenant friendship with Jonathan and his desperate escape to Gath, to the humiliation of pretending to be insane, David finds himself with no home, no resources, and seemingly no future. Yet even in the lowest moments, the hand of God is still upon him. Psalm 34 becomes David’s testimony of that deliverance: “This poor man cried, and the L
The Life and Leadership of King David (Part 1) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 328), I begin a journey through the life of David, one of the most fascinating and complex people in Scripture. Before we ever get to Goliath, David’s story is shaped by the world around him, from the era of the Judges and the rise of Saul to his unlikely family heritage through Rahab and Ruth. David was a shepherd boy from Bethlehem, yet God saw something in him that others could not see. We look at David’s anointing by Samuel, his victory over Goli
Revelation Pt. 2 | You've Got Mail (Part 13) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook, I conclude the You’ve Got Mail series by returning to the Book of Revelation and asking what its message means for believers living in the world today. Revelation is not merely a sequence of end-times events to be organized into a timeline. It is a letter to the Church—a sweeping, symbolic vision that pulls back the curtain and reveals Jesus Christ as Lord over history, eternity, and every power that rises against Him. We will explore the seals, trumpets
Revelation Pt. 1 | You've Got Mail (Part 12) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook, I invite you to approach the Book of Revelation not as a complicated timeline to be decoded, but as a powerful revelation of Jesus Christ. Written by the Apostle John during his exile on Patmos, Revelation is both a letter to the Church and a sweeping spiritual vision filled with images, sounds, symbols, and promises. Rather than reading it like a Western textbook, we should experience it more like a great Hebrew opera—allowing its message to reveal the
James, Jude, 1-3 John, 1-2 Peter | You've Got Mail (Part 11) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 325), I invite you to listen beyond the words of the New Testament epistles and hear the voices of the men who wrote them. From James and Jude, the half-brothers of Jesus, to John, the beloved disciple, and Simon Peter, the bold apostle transformed by grace, these letters reveal not only doctrine but deeply personal encounters with Christ. Their writings are shaped by what they saw, what they lived, and how Jesus changed them. We will explore practic
