June 25, 2025 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

What exactly is Systematic Theology? And when we talk about God’s attributes, where’s the best place to start? In this episode, Pastor Michael Carr argues that it all begins with God’s Lordship- and that His control, authority, and presence naturally flow from there.

February 23, 2025 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

God didn’t just keep his promise to judge the enemies of Israel after they returned from exile, but he told them exactly how he would do it. Not only does this passage show how God would judge his enemies, but it also demonstrates his attributes that his people should follow.

Matthew 11:25-27 The Son’s Praise of The Father

August 8, 2021 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

How boss was Jesus?!?! He trolled the unrepentant cities who had seen His miracles by praising the Father for hiding the truth from them… and He did so right in front of them!

Matthew 11:20-24 Those Who Jesus Mocks and Will One Day Judge

July 25, 2021 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Mocking people doesn’t seem very Christ-like… but that’s exactly what we see Christ doing in Matthew 11.

March 1, 2020 By Matthew Cooke Leave a Comment

Often times our familiarity with the book Job, specifically the dialogues between God and Satan, give us too much of a heads up to really feel and consider the losses of God’s servant. For that reason, listen as Brother Brody preaches from chapters 1 and 2, only considering the righteous man, Job’s perspective from the […]
