Anger and the Pastor
CD
Moses was a remarkably self-controlled leader. When the Hebrews tested his patience one too many times, though, he lost his cool. Today’s pastors aren’t immune to anger, either—and unfortunately, a quick-tempered pastor will often cause great harm to his church, his home, and ultimately himself. In response to this sobering reality, Christopher Ash leads ... Continue Reading

Paul’s message to Titus was clear and consistent: teach sound doctrine with dignity, integrity, and the authority given by God Himself.

It can be tempting to think that our obedience to God merits His favor and earns us His intervention. Alistair Begg points out, however, that the life of Joseph proves otherwise.

Jeremiah was in a hopeless circumstance, thrown into a cistern by his enemies. In the prophet’s rescue, God used an unlikely person—Ebed-Melek, a slave, alien, and eunuch—in order to show that all glory belongs to Him.

Naaman was a valiant soldier, a great man with great means—but he also had leprosy. When God used the prophet Elisha to prescribe an unusual cure, Naaman responded not with obedience, but with anger.

A Sacred Responsibility
CD
Like the prophet Jeremiah, Paul was called to preach the Word of God. Preaching was fashioned into the fabric of his being; he could do nothing else. In 1 Corinthians 9, the apostle describes that his obligation to preach was not forced, but a divine compulsion, for which he expected no reward. Alistair Begg encourages anyone considering ...

A Shining Cameo
CD
In the time of the prophet Jeremiah, the city of Jerusalem was besieged and desperate. Jeremiah refused to sugarcoat this grim reality. Stung by the truth, city officials tried to kill him—but Ebed-melech, making a “shining cameo” as an unlikely hero, came to the rescue, acting with courage and compassion. Alistair Begg shows that Ebed-melech is ... Continue Reading

CD
In difficult times, those who seek God’s refuge enjoy His favor and protection.

A Story of God’s Providence
CD
It’s nearly impossible to see God’s providence in one’s life by looking at a few isolated incidents. The circumstances, disappointments, and successes Joseph experienced in Genesis make no sense, observes Alistair Begg, until we read how God providentially overruled the events of his life. Like Joseph, believers can trust that God is working all ... Continue Reading

A Strange Place for a Strange Man
CD
John the Baptist was a remarkable preacher. But was it only his unique wardrobe, strange diet, and uncommon location that drew people to him? Or was there something more?

A Striking Contrast
CD
Worship should be characterized by devotion rather than desertion, faith rather than fear, and humility rather than hostility. Jesus came to Mary’s defense when she was criticized for breaking a priceless jar of ointment on the feet of Jesus and unbinding her hair to dry them. From John 12, Alistair Begg helps us understand the extravagant ... Continue Reading

A Taste of Honey
CD
On the heels of victory against the Philistines, Saul found himself waging a new battle—a spiritual war within his own heart. His desire to vanquish enemies in his own strength led him to place a rash oath on the Israelites. This foolish decision led the people to obey manmade laws rather than God’s divine commands ...

An Unexpected Encounter
CD
Just when it seemed Philip’s preaching was becoming useful, God sent him to the desert. Philip obeyed—and as a result, he met an Ethiopian eunuch with pressing questions about Jesus. If we believe that God directs our steps, will we view every situation as an opportunity to share the Gospel? Challenging us to make the ... Continue Reading

A Warning to the Church, Part Two
CD
In the Corinthian church, prideful boasting and eloquent religious entertainment had replaced solid biblical teaching. Paul made it clear that he did not want to shame these believers, but to warn them because he did not want to see them led astray. Alistair Begg echoes Paul’s warning and outlines eight lessons for today’s Church, noting ... Continue Reading
