Encore: a repeated performance.

As we approach the end of 2025, we decided to do an encore of eight episodes from the past six years. With a new intro for each episode recorded by Eric Ludy and Nathan Johnson, we hope these encores will stir your soul toward Jesus and introduce you to previous series that you can explore.

Peaceful Intimacy (Nathan Johnson)

Originally recorded in 2021 as a part of his series The Christian Mindset from Philippians 4:4–9, we are taking the first two episodes to review what we’ve covered thus far. In this episode, we examine Paul’s call to not allow anything to produce fear, anxiety, or worry and instead press us into intimacy with Jesus through prayer and thanksgiving—as such the peace of God will guard our inner lives. As we continue our study, this episode will give the context for the “think on these things” passage of Philippians 4:8.

A bonus Christmas greeting from Eric. Since episode 1325 had a serious audio problem, Eric decided to jump in front of the mic one more time before Christmas and dish out some extra Holiday cheer. May the coming, the working, the dying, the rising, and the ruling of our Lord Jesus be deeply cherished by us all this Christmas season!

In this special Christmas reflection, Eric and Nathan briefly talk about their plans, how they approach a new year, and what they are most excited for in 2026.

Please know that we are taking a couple weeks off to rest with family, and we will resume our Daily Thunder series on January 12, 2026.
