Freedom has never come without sacrifice. Throughout the history of this nation, countless men and women have willingly laid down their lives so others might live in liberty. On this Memorial Day episode, we honor those sacrifices while remembering the greater freedom found in Jesus Christ, who gave His life “a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). As we reflect on the blessings we enjoy, may we never take for granted the cost of freedom—both as Americans and as Christians.Read about this subjectScripture: John 15:13, Mark 10:45“The Cost of Freedom”“What Does Freedom Mean to You?”

In a world that often overlooks the home, one truth remains: moms matter. God designed motherhood with purpose, giving women a powerful role in shaping lives and faith.A godly mother influences generations—teaching, guiding, and pointing her family to God.

In a world full of opinions, feelings, and shifting ideas, one question still matters: What is truth? While many treat truth as something personal or flexible, God’s word stands as the unchanging standard.Truth is not what we think or feel—it is what God has revealed. His word will not only guide us, but it will also judge us in the last day. If we want to be set free, we must seek the truth where it is found—in the Word of God.Read about this subjectScripture: John 8:32, John 17:17, John 12:48, Proverbs 23:23"The Truth"“What is Truth?”

People often look to professions, platforms, and personalities to change the world, but when God set out to save mankind, He chose something far simpler—He sent a preacher. Jesus came declaring the good news, teaching the saving message of God in its simplicity. While man has complicated that message over time, the truth has not changed. The Gospel is still the power of God to save, and it’s time to get back to the basics.Read about this subjectScripture: Luke 4:18, John 8:32“We Need a Preacher”

Two times a year, the world talks about Jesus—Easter and Christmas—but the truth about remembering Him is not found in tradition. It is revealed in His word. While many observe a yearly celebration of the resurrection, the New Testament does not teach it. Instead, it points to a weekly remembrance of the risen Savior every first day of the week. To misunderstand how and when we honor Christ is to miss what Scripture plainly reveals about worship, the resurrection, and the Gospel itself.Read about this subjectScripture: Acts 12:4, 1 Corinthians 15:14–19, Acts 20:7, Hebrews 10:25Easter

Many people have ideas about what God is like, but the truth is not found in human opinion—it is revealed in His word. The Bible teaches that God is eternal, unchanging, and far above the shifting thoughts of men. To misunderstand God is to misunderstand everything that follows, including life, suffering, and salvation.Rather than shaping God into what we want Him to be, we are called to know Him as He truly is. Tennessee Bible College is offering an After Dark course, The Attributes of God, to help you study these truths more deeply and grow in your understanding of the living God.

People often search for something new, even in matters of worship and service to God. In ancient Athens, people spent their time wanting to hear the latest idea, and our world is much the same today. Yet God has already given us what we need through His word and warns us not to add to it or take away from it. Instead of changing God’s doctrine or the practices He has revealed, we are called to follow His will faithfully and live according to the truth He has given.Read about this subjectScriptures: Acts 17:21, II Timothy 3:16–17, Revelation 22:18–19

Social media says 2026 feels like 2016 again. In 2016, at our RENEW Lectureship, the theme was “Revisiting the Battle…” as we studied the struggle with modernism, denominationalism, moral impurity, and false doctrine — but the truth is, the battle never left. And in 2026, the question isn’t just what are we fighting? It’s who is responsible? Romans 13:14 says, “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ.” The battle is real, but responsibility is personal.
