This episode looks at how the New Testament addresses the humbling and exalting of Jesus Christ. It’s even seen in how the New Testament writers address Him.
We are also reminded that, for followers of Christ, we too, are following a pattern of humbling in this life, and await a glorified exaltation with Christ, in the next.
This episode centers on readings from “The Great Rest Giver” by William Haig Miller. It was published in London about 1891. Walt found a print version of the book in a large Detroit bookstore. The theme centers on Matthew 11:28-30 in which Christ speaks of true, Christ-given rest.
The Christmas season is often a time for nostalgia and looking back to our past holiday experiences. Some are wonderful to remember. Some can be painful. Can we remember the future as well as the past at Christmas time?
As we remember the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ just over 2000 years ago, we find that old Christmas carols point us forward in time to the return of Christ. In our memories of Christmas past, we have memories of a future time.

This episode looks at the Lord Jesus’ declaration “I am the Light of The World” in John 8:12. It examines how this declaration, made by Christ at the Feast of Booths fulfills the type of the pillar of fire by night and pillar of cloud by day as found in the book of Exodus.
This episode examines the priorities in prayer of the Apostle Paul as found in his New Testament letters. While praying for earthly needs, we should also pray with eternal perspectives in mind. We use a brief review of Ephesians 1:16-17 as a sample lesson in praying with Paul’s priorities.
My observations were derived from a book by Dr. D.A. Carson
“A Call To Spiritual Reformation; Priorities From Paul And His Prayers”
