Grace truly is amazing. But why?While we have all heard the term "grace" used in church, many of us think of it as "mercy" or the kindness of God … but grace is so … much … more. Scripture says that God's grace is manifold—there are countless layers or "folds" to the beauty and splendor of God's grace.In this episode, Eric and Nathan sit down to discuss how the Bible describes grace and why it truly is amazing.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Anger is a difficult emotion to deal with in the Christian life. Is it okay to be angry, and if so how do I know if what I'm angry over is a righteous or selfish anger? In this study of Ephesians 4:26-27, Paul argues that while righteous anger is permissible, we should seek to put away all anger from our lives as it can easily become sin, cause division within the body, and become a place of opportunity for the devil.For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

This is episode three in Eric’s series entitled, Legendary. In this episode Eric unpacks the impact of his German heritage on his life and how his dad chose to deliberately move away from the strict, disciplined, production-oriented methodology of his background in order to create an atmosphere of laughter, celebration, and affectionate warmth in the Ludy home. 

Within the Church, the Holy Spirit is typically either an exciting subject or something you avoid at all costs. Yet, as Eric and Nathan discuss, the Holy Spirit is the very life of Christ within us-and the only way we can live out the reality of Christianity. In this round table discussion, Eric and Nathan talk about their own past with the topic of the Holy Spirit and why it's important for us to understand the life and role of the Holy Spirit biblically. Take this concept further by listening to Eric's sermon The Old Servant at https://ellerslie.com/the-old-servant/ For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/


As Christians, our lives must be marked by the truth. Because God does not lie and because we are members of one body, we must aggressively throw any lie, hypocrisy, or duplicity from our lives. In this study from Ephesians 4:25, Nathan talks about truth, lying, and how both are far more than merely the words we say but also include how we live our lives.

This is episode two in Eric’s powerful new series entitled, Legendary. In this series, Eric is showcasing the world-altering impact of a simple life lived well. Each of the episodes in this series unpacks a dimension of his father’s life and beautifully illustrates the importance of doing the small things as if they were truly big things. 


In this brand new series, Eric Ludy and Nathan Johnson discuss the importance of words and why it’s so important for us to think biblically about words we use in the Church. In this first episode, they talk about how the enemy loves to hijack and redefine terms, perverting and twisting their meanings, and what we need to do about it. They also give the example of “Father” and why it’s necessary to consider it in light of Scripture rather than our experience. If you want a fresh biblical understanding of a Christian’s vocabulary and how it practically changes your life, you’ll love this new round table discussion series.

Jesus is to have first place (be preeminent) in every area of our lives. He is not an add-on to our lives, He is to be our lives—which should radically transform every area of life. In this new series, Nathan Johnson dives back into Ephesians and examines Paul’s practical examples of what it means to be a Christian (Ephesians 4:25–5:18).

A child often doesn’t see the great sacrifice of a parent. In fact, they more often than not, take their parent's care and attentions for granted and even grumble and whine with complaint when the parent falls short of perfection. It’s unfortunate, but few wake up from this childish slumber and actually see the magnificence of parental sacrifice. Of course, in a much bigger and eternal sense, most never wake up to see the magnificence of their Heavenly Father’s sacrifice on their behalf either. And that is why this episode, and this entire series, is of great value. It’s a fresh reminder to never take for granted the breath in our lungs and the precious people God has placed along the pathway of our lives. 

In this week between series, Eric and Nathan sit down at their new round table to discuss the three new series that launch next week. Hear them talk about the series, the new round table, and how Eric is excited to kick Nathan under the table.
