  • Ep. 356 - Lessons Learned From the Life of John MacArthur
    John MacArthur recently went to be with the Lord, a bittersweet reality—his presence will be deeply missed, yet he is now in glory with Christ. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar reflect on the tremendous legacy he left behind, remembering how his ministry shaped their lives and influenced the broader church. Mark recalls MacArthur being the very first Christian author he read, who introduced him to expository preaching. Expository preaching works carefully through the Bible verse by verse, letting the passage itself dictate the theme. This approach addresses the issue of biblical illiteracy in America and prevents preachers from overlooking difficult or uncomfortable truths. MacArthur modeled this for decades, never losing the thrill of studying the text and preparing to preach.MacArthur’s unwavering commitment was to elevate Christ while letting Scripture speak plainly and powerfully. The memorial service reflected a life well-lived, faithfully completed, and entirely Christ-centered. E.Z. recalls meeting him at a conference, where MacArthur's warmth and approachability were evident, even taking time to endorse his book. Ray first encountered him the weekend of E.Z.’s wedding, grateful for the opportunity to introduce a friend to MacArthur. Oscar emphasizes MacArthur’s doctrinal clarity, noting how his ministry cultivated churches filled with men passionate about the truth. Everyone lives with theology, but MacArthur insisted it must be accurate and consistent. His final words pointed to God’s grace conquering his heart and taking away the sting of death.The guys remind listeners that while every hero of the faith remains human and imperfect, they can and should still be honored. MacArthur was a sinner like all of us, yet he was also a trailblazer whose courage and steadiness stand as examples. His courage inspired many, and his ministry drew believers across theological traditions, demonstrating that unity can coexist with disagreement. Honoring leaders before they are gone is a needed practice, resisting the pull of cancel culture and offering encouragement while it can still be heard. MacArthur feared God more than man, leaving behind a testimony that truth must always be spoken.E.Z. concludes with powerful quotes from MacArthur. Other tributes highlight the broad scope of his impact and the profound influence he had. When faithful servants like him go to the Lord, they continue to speak through the work and words they leave behind. Ultimately, the story is not about a great man but about a great God who delights in using willing, flawed people to shape entire generations.Send us a textThanks for listening!

  • Standing Firm in Truth: Lessons From John MacArthur – Highlight Episode 356
    John MacArthur’s recent passing is both sorrowful and hopeful, as the church grieves his absence yet rejoices because he is now with the Lord. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar reflect on his significant influence, recalling how he introduced many to expository preaching, faithfully working through Scripture verse by verse instead of letting topics drive the message. They share memories of his warmth in personal encounters, his passion for doctrinal clarity, and his courage to stand firm even when threatened during times of cultural opposition. His voice carried clarity and conviction, always pointing to Christ and letting God’s word speak for itself. While recognizing his humanity and imperfections, they honor him as a trailblazer whose ministry built churches filled with a love for truth and whose legacy transcended denominational and theological boundaries. His life and preaching serve as a reminder that God delights in using faithful but flawed people to advance His glory, leaving a legacy that will continue to influence generations to come.Send us a textThanks for listening!

  • Ep. 355 - Processing the Deadly Shooting of Charlie Kirk
    We are heartbroken over the tragic news of Charlie Kirk’s passing. Tune in as we remember his life and share words of comfort during this difficult time. Please keep Charlie’s family in your prayers. What a comfort it is to know that Charlie boldly proclaimed Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection, often declaring, “Jesus saved my life, and the resurrection is the centerpiece of everything I believe.” Today, Charlie is with the Lord in glory. May this heartbreaking loss serve as a sobering reminder that death comes for us all, and that the gospel is our only hope in a lost and broken world.Send us a textThanks for listening!

  • The Errors of Artificial Intelligence and the Elimination of Critical Thinking. - Highlight Episode 357
    Artificial intelligence is transforming the way people think, learn, and trust information, but it also raises significant questions about truth and authority. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar welcome Cal Smith from AIG Canada to discuss both the promises and risks of AI, noting that while it can be helpful for research and everyday tasks, its reliability depends on the quality of the data it uses and should not be accepted without question. Cal explains how applying logic, mathematics, and observational science often reveals contradictions in mainstream thinking, emphasizing the need for believers to protect their God-given gift of critical thinking. The conversation highlights how society has moved from books to Google to AI, with each step diminishing discernment, and stresses that Christians must stay grounded in Scripture. Ultimately, the message is that AI can be a helpful tool, but it should never replace faith, truth, or the transformative power of the gospel.Send us a textThanks for listening!

  • Ep. 354 - What Does “Retirement” Look Like for Christians?
    Retirement, from a Christian perspective, is not an exit from purpose but a shift into a new season of service. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar stress that retirement should be about stewarding time, talents, treasure, and testimony. Christians never take a vacation from their calling, and life continues to hold meaning in every stage. Many suffer after leaving their career because they’ve tied their identity to a profession. Still, believers are called to stay disciplined—remaining in the Word, sharing the gospel, and praying for wisdom and energy. Examples abound of retired believers who dedicate their lives to outreach, discipleship, and evangelism, proving that as long as one is alive, God is not finished with their work.For younger believers, preparing financially for retirement is wise stewardship. Planning ahead isn’t about accumulating wealth but about equipping oneself to serve God and others without financial obstacles. Saving early and consistently allows Christians to use their later years to bless others through leadership, generosity, and active ministry. The guys note that tools such as 401(k) plans, employer matches, and Roth IRAs make it easy to start. Developing the discipline to save regularly is like strengthening a muscle—over time, it becomes second nature. Debt, especially high-interest debt, should be avoided whenever possible, and paying it off quickly frees believers to give and serve without financial bondage.Ultimately, retirement should be approached with intentionality and purpose. The call is to earn as much as possible so one can give as much as possible, to live with open hands, and to invest in eternity. Believers are encouraged to plan their later years with the same focus they apply to their career goals—asking how they will spend their time advancing the Kingdom. This stage of life offers opportunities to serve in ways that might not have been possible before, such as investing in younger generations, mentoring others, and meeting needs within the community and the church.Time, like money, belongs to God. It can be wasted, spent, or invested, and Christians are called to redeem it for what truly matters. The world is full of people in need—lonely individuals in hospitals, neighbors who have never heard the gospel, and children searching for role models. Believers should stay active in service, surrounded by others who speak truth into their lives. As long as there is breath, there is purpose. Retirement is not the end but a continuation of the race, run with urgency, faithfulness, and an eternal perspective.Send us a textThanks for listening!
