In this session, we examine how God makes Himself known and why revelation is essential to true faith. Creation, conscience, and the order of the world clearly testify that God exists and that man is accountable, yet these forms of general revelation are limited. They reveal God’s power and authority but cannot explain sin, grace, or salvation. Human attempts to reason their way to God through nature and philosophy ultimately fall short, because reason alone cannot lead a sinner to repentance or reveal the gospel of Christ.

The study then turns to God’s special revelation, showing how the Lord has spoken clearly and intentionally through the prophets, through His Son Jesus Christ, and through the written Scriptures. This episode emphasizes why the Bible is not optional but necessary. Scripture alone reveals who God truly is, why Christ came, and how salvation is accomplished by grace through faith. Christianity is not a faith discovered by human wisdom, but a faith revealed by a speaking God, and every doctrine must rise from and return to His Word.

Episode Summary – Part 3: Romans 8, The Declaration of the Winner

In Part 3 of the Fear of Failure mini series, we turn to one of the most triumphant chapters in all of Scripture, Romans 8. This episode proclaims that the believer’s victory is not something to be earned, but something already declared by God through Jesus Christ. From “no condemnation” to “no separation,” Romans 8 dismantles the fear of failure by reminding believers that justification, acceptance, and victory are settled realities in Christ. Paul’s unbroken chain of God’s purpose, the certainty of Christ’s intercession, and the assurance of God’s unchanging love all point to one undeniable truth: the child of God is more than a conqueror. This episode calls listeners to stop living under self condemnation and fear, and to embrace the conqueror identity God has already given them through Christ.

Episode Summary – Prayer and the Divine Will

This episode carefully addresses one of the most personal and difficult tensions believers face: if God has eternally decreed all things, why should we pray, and does prayer truly matter. Rather than softening God’s sovereignty or offering shallow comfort, this session shows from Scripture that prayer is one of the ordained means by which God carries out His will in time. Prayer does not change who God is, nor does it alter His eternal decree, yet it is never wasted, meaningless, or symbolic. God has chosen to work through prayer, to distribute mercy, grace, strength, and help through the asking of His people. Passages that speak of God “repenting” in response to intercessory prayer are explained as changes in God’s dealings within time, not changes in His nature or purpose. James’s teaching that “the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” is unpacked to show that prayer avails much because God has decreed that it should, not because prayer bends God’s will. The episode also addresses the hardest real-life questions surrounding sickness, unanswered prayers, and death, showing that prayer is first an act of obedience and trust, not outcome control. Even when healing does not come, prayer anchors the soul, draws the believer near to God, and brings grace sufficient for the moment. In the end, this session reassures the listener that God remains sovereign, prayer remains powerful, and faith remains secure, even when God’s ways are beyond our understanding.

Episode Summary – Part 2: The Conqueror Mindset, Thinking Like a Winner in a World of Loss

In Part 3 of the Fear of Failure mini series, we turn our attention to the mindset every believer must develop if they are going to live victoriously in a fallen world. Scripture calls believers conquerors, not because of confidence in self, but because of confidence in Christ. Drawing heavily from Romans 8, this episode challenges defensive, fear-driven Christianity and calls believers to think and live from the position of victory already declared by God. Fear paralyzes spiritual growth, but faith fuels bold obedience, gospel advancement, and perseverance through failure. Using biblical examples and practical illustration, this episode reminds us that failure is not the enemy of a conqueror, fear is. When believers stop fearing failure and start trusting God’s faithfulness, they become spiritually dangerous, effective, and resilient in their walk with Christ.

In this episode, we turn from who God is to how God governs, examining the biblical doctrines of God’s decree and providence. Scripture reveals a God who is not reacting to history but ruling over it, eternally purposing all things and actively sustaining, directing, and governing every moment in time. We explore how God works through real human choices and secondary causes without surrendering His sovereignty, and how He remains holy and righteous without being the author of sin. From Joseph’s suffering to the cross of Christ, this episode shows how God’s purposes stand even in a broken world, offering believers stability, confidence, and worship in the knowledge that nothing falls outside the wise and sovereign hand of God.

Part 1: When Failure Stops Being the Enemy

In this opening episode of the Fear of Failure mini series, we confront one of the most misunderstood words in the Christian life: failure. Scripture never presents failure as final, shameful, or disqualifying. Instead, it reveals failure as one of God’s most effective classrooms for growth, humility, and dependence on grace. Drawing from biblical examples and personal experience, this episode challenges the lie that failure disappoints God or ends usefulness. From Moses to Peter to Paul, God has always worked through imperfect people who learned to rise again by faith. This session lays the foundation for the series by showing that failure is inevitable in a fallen world, but fear of failure is not. Growth begins when believers stop fearing the fall and start trusting the grace that meets them there.

A God Who Does Not Change and Cannot Be Shaken
God’s Immutability and Impassibility

If God could change, His promises could fail. If God could be emotionally wounded, His sovereignty would weaken. In this episode, we examine two often misunderstood attributes of God: His immutability and His impassibility. Scripture reveals a God who does not shift, adjust, or evolve, and who is not subject to emotional turmoil or suffering as creatures are. Far from making God distant, these truths secure our confidence in Him. God’s love is not fragile, His mercy is not reactive, and His purposes are never in danger. This episode calls us to rest in a God whose nature is steady, whose will is settled, and whose faithfulness never wavers.

Peace = Rest...?

We talk about rest as if it looks the same for everyone, but Scripture paints a deeper picture. In this episode, we explore what biblical rest really is and what it is not. Drawing from Hebrews 4, this conversation challenges the idea that rest is simply slowing down or doing nothing, and instead points us to a rest rooted in trust rather than striving. This episode is for anyone who has been told they are doing too much, moving too fast, or resting the wrong way, and for those who quietly wonder whether their soul is truly at peace before God. A thoughtful reflection on resting without guilt, without comparison, and without turning God’s gift of rest into a rigid formula.
