This year I tackled two books of the Bible I’ve been wanting to teach for a long time, 1&2Thessalonians. Plus I updated my series on Galatians which allowed me to expand the series beyond the 12-week limit imposed by teaching in person. In addition, I continued working on a book on the Sermon on the Mount, which I hope will be the first of many.

My solution to the ‘great pastor resignation’
Thessalonians: Detailed outline
This podcast allows me to spend many hours every day in prayer and Bible study, for which I am very thankful. Truth be told, I’d do it even if know one else listened. But it’s nice to be able to share the “wealth” with you. Here’s something about WitW listeners:
