Samuel Rutherford’s "The Trial and Triumph of Faith" (1645) celebrates faith’s power to seize Christ’s victory (1 Corinthians 15:57). Jesus crushed sin and Satan, winning not just for Himself but for us—faith claims that triumph as our own (Exodus 15:2). Like the woman who touched His hem (Mark 5:28–29), we find strength in His finished work, not our faltering efforts. This episode stirs us to rest in His conquest, singing through storms. For your gift of any amount during April, we want to send you a complimentary copy of "The Precious Blood: The Benefits of the Atonement of Christ" by Dustin Benge.

Step into Richard Baxter’s "The Saints’ Everlasting Rest" (1650), where he paints a breathtaking vision of heaven’s rest—a refuge from earth’s toil and tears (Hebrews 4:9). Beyond mere relief, it’s a vibrant eternity of joy and peace with Christ, promised to the weary (Revelation 14:13). Baxter urges us to loosen our grip on this world and fix our hearts on things above (Colossians 3:2). This episode ignites hope to endure, lifting our eyes to the rest secured by His blood.For your gift of any amount during April, we want to send you a complimentary copy of "The Precious Blood: The Benefits of the Atonement of Christ" by Dustin Benge.

The Ruin of Sin and the Hope of Grace
Journey into Edward Reynolds’ "Meditations on the Fall and Misery of Man" (1658), where he exposes sin’s ruin on humanity—shattering God’s image and plunging us into death (Romans 3:23, 6:23). From Adam’s fall, we’re broken, cursed, and lost. Yet Reynolds unveils a stunning hope: grace outshines sin’s darkness (Romans 5:20). Christ, the gift of eternal life, turns ashes into beauty (Isaiah 61:3), redeeming rebels into sons. This episode confronts our ruin and lifts us to grace’s triumph. For your gift of any amount for the month of March, we want to send you a complimentary copy of "Gospel Evidences of Saving Faith" by John Owen.

Kill Sin
In this weekend edition, we dive into Christopher Love’s "The Mortified Christian," where he delivers a stark truth: kill sin, or it kills you. Anchored in Colossians 3:5 and Romans 8:13, Love insists there’s no truce with sin—it’s a beast to slay daily, or it drags you to ruin. Christ died to free us, not to coddle our lusts; sparing them mocks His cross. This episode challenges us to wield the Spirit’s power, cut off sin (Matthew 5:30), and find peace in holiness.
