What a year we have had studying the Bible together! This month we conclude our 6th year of Enjoying the Journey podcasts, and are so very grateful for the faithful listeners who journey through God’s Word with us each day. Over the last year, people from more than 150 nations have been regular listeners, and just a few days ago we passed 7.4 million total ETJ downloads. To God be all glory.

In the closing weeks of the year, we turn our attention to the greatest story in the world – the story of redemption. This is more than the story of Christmas; it is the story of Christ! Plan to join us for these brand new episodes, as we examine the crimson thread of salvation woven throughout all of Scripture.

We will begin our study in eternity past and conclude in eternity future. In between, we will get a birds eye view of God’s salvation in both the Old and New Testaments. From Genesis to Revelation, the overwhelming portrait is of our loving God, redeeming fallen humanity.

The first study of God’s Redemption Timeline starts on Tuesday. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the birth of Jesus and finish the year God has brought us through than meditating on “the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Revelation 13:8).

If Enjoying the Journey has been a blessing to you, would you do three things to help us?

  • Ask someone who needs Christ to listen to this series with you. These gospel lessons will provide an entry point for conversations about Christ. Invite a lost friend or family member to listen and then discuss the episodes with them. Our goal is not just information; it is evangelization!
  • Pray the Lord will touch this study in a special way. We know that God will use His Word and trust that, at this season when many are tender, He will open hearts to Christ. Join us in praying that the Holy Spirit will continue to give favor and fruit as we approach a new year in this ministry.
  • Prayerfully consider making a year-end gift to help this ministry move forward. We have chosen to keep Enjoying the Journey ad free, so that nothing will interrupt the devotional emphasis of the studies. The cost of production is cared for by the kind support of listeners like you. Thank you in advance for anything the Lord leads you to do. (You may give securely online at enjoyingthejourney.org/donations. All gifts are tax deductible.)

Shortly we will pass the mile marker of another year. Thank you for making the journey with us. Don’t miss Tuesday’s broadcast, and watch for an all new study to begin the new year in just a few days!

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder. 

The Monument Builder

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.
