Many try to accept Jesus as Savior while rejecting His correction. Others seek His comfort but resist His reign. Some long for the crown but ignore the cross.
But Psalm 22, Psalm 23, and Psalm 24 do not present three options. They reveal one unified Christ.
❓What if your Jesus only suffers, but never rules?
❓What if you follow the Shepherd but never meet the King?
❓What if your gospel leaves you forgiven but unchanged?
📖 In this teaching, we explore:
Psalm 22: The Suffering Savior
Psalm 23: The Guiding Shepherd
Psalm 24: The Reigning King
🎯 The cross redeems. The crook guides. The crown rules.
You must take the whole Christ. No other Christ will do.

Take a listen to this one. There will definitely be a live show about the topic for free will and foreknowledge.
People make big claims every day. Some claims are so impressive that we want to believe them. Love believes all things, but love is not gullible. Love does not require us to turn off our brains or accept every story at face value. It is the love of truth that makes us careful with what we accept and share.
Recently I heard a luthier claim to have taught thousands of students from scratch all the way to becoming capable guitarists. Sounds great. But let’s put it to the test with simple math—and then see what you think about it.
If it takes about six months—roughly 25 weekly lessons—for a beginner to reach intermediate level, and if a full-time teacher handles 30 students a week, that is 1,500 lessons in a year. Divide that by 25 lessons per student, and you get 60 intermediate students a year. If you teach full-time for 17 years, you could personally train just over 1,000 people to that level. That is assuming perfect attendance, no dropouts, and a schedule that never falters. Real-world ...
Preaching the truth is not about posturing—it’s about standing firm with clarity, humility, and strategy.
Jesus did not send His messengers into safe places. He sent them into the teeth of hostility with orders to be wise and harmless. That standard still governs faithful preaching today. So what happens when strategy and sincerity are treated as partners instead of opposites?

How honest preaching builds trust without softening the message
What true accountability looks like in the preacher’s life
