  • Are you satisfied with your prayer life? If you’re like many Christians, the answer is no.‬ ‭ But why is that? Why is it that we struggle to spend concentrated time in prayer with the‬ ‭ all-glorious King of the Universe, the only One who can meet our most pressing needs‬ ‭ and truly satisfy us? In this passage from Matthew 7:7–11, Jesus urges his disciples to‬ ‭ be persistent in prayer in light of the goodness and generosity of their Father in heaven.‬ ‭ Though we don’t always know what’s best for us, we can go to God in prayer, trusting‬ ‭ his perfect wisdom and love. This message from David Platt highlights the privilege and‬ ‭ promises of prayer.‬

  • Jesus said that we must renounce everything if we want to be his disciple. This is the clear teaching of Scripture, but do we believe this? Do we really believe that following Jesus means turning away from the gods of comfort and self, or have we come up with a Jesus of our own devising? In this message from Luke 14:33, David Platt challenges us to hear the call of Jesus: “Any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.” Following Jesus is costly, but in the end, it is the path to true and eternal satisfaction.

  • “Judge not, that you be not judged.” This is one of the best-known verses in all of Scripture, even for non-Christians. Unfortunately, though, it’s also one of the most misunderstood portions of Jesus’ teaching. These words have been misused and twisted, sometimes as an excuse for sin. In this message from Matthew 7:1–6, David Platt helps us see what kind of judgment Jesus wants (and doesn’t want) from his followers. We need the help of God’s Spirit to rightly evaluate our own lives and the lives of others with humility and godly wisdom.

  • Did you know that you can give, pray, and fast regularly, and yet still fail to please God? It’s entirely possible to do the right things for the wrong reason. In this message from Matthew 6:1–18, David Platt highlights Jesus’ warning about living for the praise and recognition of others. God himself is our reward, and it is enough to know that he sees us.

  • Who is Jesus? People answer that question in various ways, but Scripture gives us the only true answer. Jesus Christ is unlike any other religious leader in history, for he not only knows our greatest problem but he is also able to address it through his life, death, and resurrection. In this message from Revelation 5:1–14, David Platt points us to a Savior who has overcome death in order to give us eternal life freely. He is worthy of our faith, worship, and devotion.

  • When you hear the word “worship,” what comes to mind? Your favorite worship songs? A certain feeling or vibe on Sunday morning? Unfortunately, we often put ourselves at the center of Sunday morning rather than the One who should be the focus of our worship. In this message from Mark 11:15–19, David Platt urges us to make sure that God is at the center of our worship. God-centered worship changes not only our heart posture in corporate worship but also the way we live our lives.

  • Our culture takes the covenant of marriage very lightly and downplays the seriousness of divorce. In our own attempts to find happiness and fulfillment, we’ve sought out what we think is a better way. However, based on Matthew 5:31–37, we see that Jesus has a very different view of marriage and divorce. In this message, David Platt points us to God’s design for marriage—a design that is better for us and that brings him glory. Gratefully, for those who have rejected a biblical view of marriage, God’s grace in the gospel is sufficient for forgiveness and restoration.

  • Whether it’s stories of the early church or Christians who are suffering for the sake of the gospel today, we sometimes wonder, “Is it possible for us to have that kind of faith today?” In this message from Acts 7:54–8:4, David Platt explains why he thinks the answer is yes. With the martyrdom of Stephen as an example, we can see what it looks like to live—and die—in order to make Christ known. God has chosen to use suffering and persecution to spread his gospel to the ends of the earth.

  • In our day, we’re told that you need to “live your truth.” You need to be the authority in your life. And this isn’t a new thing: ever since Satan’s original temptation in the garden, man has been tempted to look to some authority other than God. But as Matthew 5:17–20 tells us, true life is found in submission to the loving authority of Jesus and his Word, and in leading others to Jesus. In this message, David Platt points us to the authority of Scripture and its witness to Jesus Christ. We will only find eternal life by turning from our own illusions of autonomy and submitting to the One who gave his life for sinners.

  • It can be tempting, particularly in an election season, to think that the most important things going on in the world have to do with political leaders and political parties. We can even be tempted to use the world’s tactics when engaging the culture. In this message from Matthew 5:13–16, David Platt highlights Jesus’ exhortation to be salt and light and to let our good works lead others to glorify God. In a world corrupted by sin, people’s greatest need is the gospel, and the church has the privilege of proclaiming this good news.

  • Believe in yourself. Promote yourself. Be true to yourself. Satisfy yourself. According to the world, this is the good life. But this is precisely the opposite of what it means to live as a citizen of God’s kingdom. In this message from Matthew 5:7–12, David Platt helps us see the radical, upside-down nature of what it means to live the good life according to Jesus. While followers of Jesus may be weak and maligned in the eyes of the world, the promise of an eternal kingdom, along with God’s strength and presence daily, gives us a different glimpse of the life that is truly blessed.

  • What happens to people who never hear the name of Jesus? Would a good and just God really send them to hell? In this message from David Platt from Romans 1–3, we’re reminded that all people, without exception, stand condemned in their sin and deserving of God’s just and eternal wrath. That’s why it’s so crucial that we understand the urgency of getting the gospel to them. Better yet, we need to ask the question, “How might God use me to help spread the gospel to those who have never heard?” As followers of Jesus, we should want people from all nations to hear and believe the same good news that saved us.

  • Is being an “expert” in religion yet lacking reverence and respect for God’s Word possible? According to Isaiah 66, it’s entirely possible. Like God’s people in the Old Testament, we too need to be reminded of God’s awe-inspiring character as it is revealed in his Word. In this message, David Platt urges us to consider the weight and value of God’s Word, reciting Romans 1–8 from memory. God’s greatness should compel us to hear, believe, memorize, meditate on, and live according to his Word.

  • Jesus has given the church the task of making disciples of all nations. Many Christians view this as a task for pastors, missionaries, or other specially gifted Christians, but the Great Commission isn’t just for a select few. In this message from Matthew 28:16–20 from David Platt, we’ll see that every Christian has a part to play in making disciples in their own neighborhood and among all nations. Yet, this is not a mission we came up with or that we carry out in our own strength. We go in the sovereign authority of Jesus, and we rely on the presence of Jesus. He has promised to be with his church to the end of the age.

  • God is described as a Father of the fatherless, and he tells us that true religion involves caring for orphans and widows. In this message from Psalm 10, David Platt urges us to put our faith into action by caring for the most vulnerable among us. However, we care for the vulnerable not out of guilt or because we have it all together. We care for the vulnerable because God, by his grace, has come to us in our brokenness and brought us into his family through the gospel.

  • It’s not popular to talk about hell today, and even some Christians seem to be turned off by the topic. However, in his love and mercy, Jesus warns us of God’s eternal and just judgment of sinners. In fact, we hear more about hell from Jesus’ earthly ministry than from anywhere else in Scripture. At the same time, Jesus also tells us of the love of God that results in eternal life for all who believe in his Son. This message from David Platt from John 3:16 helps us see the only two options for everyone: eternal perishing apart from Christ or eternal life through faith in Christ.

  • True love is always costly. In the greatest display of love in all of history, Jesus laid down his life on our behalf. In this message from John 3:14–16, David Platt highlights the magnitude of Christ’s love for us and invites us to gaze upon the cross. Jesus points us back to Numbers 21 where we see a picture of his gracious, substitutionary death for sinners. By recognizing the extent of our rebellion, we begin to grasp the undeserved love of God in Christ.

  • It’s difficult to think of anything more difficult than being asked to give up your only child. Yet this is what Abraham is asked to do in Genesis 22 as he lays his son, Isaac, on the altar. In this story, we not only see Abraham’s remarkable faith in God; we also get an unforgettable picture of the love of God that we read about in John 3:16. This is the God who gave his only Son so that all who believe in him might have eternal life. In this message, David Platt points us to God’s love in sending his Son to die on the cross as a substitute for sinners.

  • We’re in a spiritual war and Satan is actively working to destroy us by tempting us to sin. And one of the scariest things is that we often don’t even realize it. In this message from David Platt from Proverbs 7, we’re reminded to stay alert to temptation and to fight it in the power that God supplies. The good news for those in Christ is that our victory over sin is assured because of what God has accomplished in the gospel.
