    We’re starting a new series called “At the Zoo.” In this series, we’ll be exploring the characteristics, the activities, and the symbolism of the top ten animals in the Bible.

    In this first episode, Dr. Bruce Becker will explain why he considers the lamb to be the #1 animal in his top ten list. There is an Old Testament reason and a New Testament one. And they both have something in common.

  • War Zone—Right Gone Wrong
    2024/06/26

    Lying isn't all that serious, is it?

    In this episode, Dr. Bruce Becker takes us to a war zone involving Ananias, Sapphira, the apostle Peter, and Satan. This is the third war zone in this series where we see Satan influencing human hearts. Satan tempted Ananias and Sapphira to lie about something that was initially good and right. Sadly, we hear about the consequences of their lie and how God may have used it to bless the early church.

  • War Zone—Judas' Judgement
    2024/06/12

    The devil is like a skilled boxer. He has a one-two punch.

    In this episode, Dr. Bruce Becker takes us to Jerusalem during what we know as Holy Week. During that week, "Satan entered Judas" on two different occasions to influence Judas to betray Jesus. Dr. Becker will explain what that refers to and how it is different from the many examples in the New Testament of demon possession. If Satan can enter into people, how do we keep Satan from entering us? By staying connected to Jesus!
