This is the third installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode he shows how one shocking event of kindness in 1903 altered the course of the twentieth century. Edward VII, the King of England, was trained from birth to hate the French, just as the French from birth were trained to hate him, a Brit. But, Edward altered the storyline of the age-old French-English feud by humbling himself and visiting Paris with the sole intention of restoring a lost fellowship, a lost trust, and a lost grace. It may be time for us to break similar age-old patterns of disgust in our own lives. But, if you are going to visit "the Beautiful City" and witness the same miracle Edward witnessed, you will need to pack something along with you. The key for entry.

While God has hundreds of names that reveal His nature and character, there are three that are considered His primary Names—Elohim, Yahweh, and Adonai—and these three establish the foundation for every other name of God. In this episode, Nathan gives seven amazing truths of what it means for us to know our God through these three names.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

This is the second installment in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this episode, he attempts to lift the topic of racial bigotry from the scrap heap of political spin. The pre-conditioning of both conservative and liberal thought on this matter has led to a senseless, ongoing, and seemingly unquenchable battle. As Christians, we mustn’t look at the issue of an oppressed people group through a political lens, but through the lens of the Word of God. The matters of racial interaction and racial sensitivity are perfectly suited to the makeup of the Church of Jesus Christ. It’s our opportunity to shine. After all, we are specialists in love, kindness, and caring for the underdog. And we should be world-renowned experts at ensuring no one is treated as lesser because of their clothing, their wealth (or lack of it), their education, and their skin color. There is a political machine that has grabbed this issue as its headliner, and we must not shy away from it because it has been weaponized to be used against us. As the Church, we must have wisdom, love, kindness, and care to seek a way to inject Jesus into this matter, and all matters pertaining to the oppressed, the downtrodden, the imprisoned, the naked, and the hungry.

The Psalmist declares that the name of our God is majestic, it stirs up and fills us with awe. Yet for too many of us, God’s name is just a label; a title we toss out when we need something. But what if our God desires us to know Him relationally and has given us intimate access to Himself by giving us His names? In this first episode of a new series, Nathan Johnson talks about the importance of names in the Bible, why God gives us multiple names for Himself, and four things that will happen in your life when we know His names. Come, let us behold our God.Download the Names of God as a PDFWatch the HE IS video------------To learn more about our Ellerslie Discipleship programs, visit https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/.

This is the first episode in Eric's epic summer series covering the contentious and war-torn season of American history from 1914 to 1974. In this inaugural installment, he declares his seemingly impossible goal for this series--to address the most sensitive issues of our day in such a way that the Church is strengthened rather than divided. This episode centers around one of the key powder kegs of the era--that of race. Using the famous heavyweight bout between Joe Louis and Max Schmeling as his muse, he unpacks a powerful picture of racial redemption and, simultaneously, a proposal for how we as the Church can handle these delicate issues in a way that changes the storyline of racial combat.

This is the final episode in Leslie’s Victorious Living series. Leslie reminds us that instead of cowering in a corner to protect ourselves from the rapidly increasing darkness of our age, God is calling us to go and shine His light to this lost and dying world. This episode challenges us to ask the question: what soul has He called me to reach today? If every true Christian in this country began seriously asking that question each day, imagine how dramatically and quickly change would come.
