In Week 7 we continue our study on Hebrews 4 through 6 and we encourage you to read along with us.

Hebrews says God’s Word isn’t a butter knife—it’s living, active, and sharp, and we talk about what it looks like to stop using the Bible for comfort-only Christianity and start letting it form us into people who actually rest in Christ, not in control.

Then we zoom in on the good news: Jesus isn’t a vague spiritual concept, He is the actual High Priest. He sympathizes with our weakness, invites us to come boldly for mercy and help, and leads us into maturity.

Help us spread the word about Thriving in the Word—and thanks for being part of the family.

Have a blessed day.

In Week 6 we kick off our first week of studying Hebrews Chapters 4 through 6.

James kicks us off by sharing Hebrews sharing about entering God's rest and compares this to talking about a chair, we can talk about it all day, but until we actually sit in the chair, we are carrying our weight. Johnny then jumps (yes, he's back, praise God!!) and shares his takeaways from Hebrews, learning obedience through suffering, that Good News is for EVERYBODY (including, you, the listener) and we go all over the place from there.

This is an epic episode: thought provoking conversation, great detours, real issues, many laughs and lots to think about. Please come along for the ride.

In Week 5 we wrap up Hebrews chapters 1 through 3, and prompt you with the following questions before listening:

1. What are you tolerating today that you would’ve walked out on five years ago?
2. If you’re “fine as you are,” Hebrews has a loving but sharp question for you.
3. Ben’s VIP night out turned into a spiritual gut-check in about 30 seconds.
4. Quick question: have you ever brought Jesus with you or left Him in the car?

Lenny kicks us off by talking about the slow drift that hardens a heart over time, how constant resistance from the world can quietly corrode our spiritual sensitivity until we find ourselves putting God on the shelf.

Ben shares a personal story from a VIP showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the moment he knew he needed to leave before the night pulled him somewhere he didn’t want to go.

That story sparks a real conversation about conviction, wisdom, and boundaries: we’re called to be in the world, but not of the world and the fact that the Holy Spirit always provides a way out.

Judah, David, Lenny, Ben and James also dig into why reading the Bible daily transforms your life, keeps your heart soft, why convictions are meant to shape us (not fuel judgment of others), and what it looks like to live a Spirit-led life in dark places while still walking in wisdom.

Lenny closes with the takeaway that names the episode: don’t leave Jesus in the car.

Jesus isn’t limited to “business hours”—He’s King of 365 / 24-7. Bring Him with you, and He’ll make your path straight.

This is an epic episode: thought provoking conversation, great detours, real issues, many laughs and lots to think about. Please come along for the ride.
