#512 Strong & Still - Rest, Reflection and Renewal for a Resilient Faith - Gratitude

Is it your vision or your focus? Reality doesn’t change, but sometimes our perspective does. This week in Strong & Still: 7 Days of Rest, Reflection, and Renewal for a Resilient Faith, we’re considering how gratitude reframes our perspective.
 
Life doesn’t always change, but how we see it can. Listen and discover not only how joy, prayer, and thankfulness can reframe our perspective even in the most challenging times, but also how you can incorporate them into your own life.

#510 Strong & Still: Rest, Reflection, and Renewal for a Resilient Faith - Be Still

Strong & Still: Rest, Reflection, and Renewal for a Resilient Faith – Be Still
Episode 1 of 7 in a series designed to equip Christians to live out their faith with confidence, clarity, resilience, and authenticity.
This Week:
In a world that celebrates hustle and constant motion, we often believe resilience comes from doing more, trying harder, or pushing through. Yet Scripture tells us that one of the most potent ways to build spiritual resilience is to 'be still'.
Explore the paradox of productive stillness in Strong & Still: Be Still. And for practical tools to help you apply this truth, check out Episode #509 — a supplemental Bible meditation available at PCspeaking.com under ‘Bible Meditations’.

#508 Built to Last - I Peter 3;1-11 Humility

This week’s Eternal Principle: Humility paves the path to God’s grace.
Listen in and explore how genuine humility brings genuine peace and how to hand your anxiety to the only One strong enough to carry it.

#507 Built to Last - I Peter 3:15 Personal Apology

In a world full of political shifts, pressures, and promises, Christians are called to place their hope in Jesus and to be ready to explain "why" with gentleness and respect.
This week, we examine 1 Peter 3:15 and discover how to carry God's name well in everyday life.

#506 Built to Last - I Peter 3:13-22 Gaining Moral Clarity

What’s shaping how you see the world? In a culture flooded with conflicting values, competing influences, and ever-shifting definitions of “good,” clarity can feel out of reach. But 1 Peter 3 shows us the lens through which we can see with moral clarity.
 

#505 Built to Last - I Peter 3:1-12 Wives submit to your own husbands

‘Likewise, wives, submit to your own husbands.’ A verse more often misunderstood than a text from your wife that says, ‘Fine. Do whatever you want.’ 

#503 Misplaced Hope - Matthew 21:1-10

They welcomed Jesus, shouting His praise, and a few days later, shouted, ‘Crucify Him.’ People had placed their hope in what they thought Jesus would do and were disappointed when He didn’t do it.
 
We all place our hope in something — finances, relationships, comfort, control. Misplaced hope inevitably leads to disappointment.
 
This week, we’re talking about a hope that survives suffering and transforms lives, even when things are at their worst. Placing your hope in Christ means putting things in the proper order, which makes other things less important and actually allows you to enjoy them.

#502 Built to Last - Submission and Witness I Peter 3:13-25

This week, we’re in 1 Peter 2:13–25 discussing the relationship between submission and witness.
Peter wrote to believers under pressure—rejected, misunderstood, and soon to face persecution. Yet instead of calling for revenge or rebellion, he called for radical submission—not out of weakness, fear, or defeat but as witness.
This week, we explore how submission to authority and endurance in suffering have been among the ways the Christian faith has not only survived but also shaped the world.
Listen in as we examine a faith ‘Built to Last’ throughout history and what it looks like today.

#501 Built to Last - Living as God's People I Peter 2:1-12

What are you building your life on?
 
This week, we continue our Built to Last series by exploring what it means to live as God’s people in a world that often pulls in the opposite direction. From first-century Christians to modern challenges, we’re talking about holiness, conviction, and the solid foundation of Christ.

#500 I Peter 1:13-16 Built to Last - A Call to Holiness

Built to Last: Called to Holiness
 
Life is full of challenges. Some days feel like a battle. Trials test our patience, our faith, and even our hope. But God is still on His throne. 
 
Peter knew suffering firsthand—he denied Jesus, faced persecution, and was ultimately martyred for his faith. Yet, in 1 Peter 1:13-15, he calls believers to stand firm, remain faithful, and be holy in all we do.
 
Holiness involves guarding our minds, fixing our hope on Jesus, and pressing forward when we feel like quitting.
