    1124. A New 5-Minute Bible Study on Acts
    Jul 6 2026
    Today marks the beginning of a brand-new season of Paul Tripp's 5-Minute Bible Study. Every Monday for the next year, Paul will spend five minutes connecting the transforming power of Scripture in the book of Acts to your everyday life.

    We began by summarizing every book of the Bible, then spent the following years digging deeply into Psalms, Proverbs, 1 Peter, the Gospel of John, and, most recently, Exodus. Now we're excited to begin our seventh season together in the book of Acts.

    But before we open to Acts chapter 1, Paul begins at the very end of John's Gospel, because you can't fully understand the beginning of Acts without first understanding the end of the Gospels.

    To kick off this new season, Paul and Shelby will spend the coming weeks exploring The Sermon on the Mount and what it means to live faithfully as a Christian in a world gone crazy. Our prayer is that these conversations will encourage, equip, convict, and comfort you as Paul connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life.

    1125. Life and Death | Mark 10:32-45
    Jul 7 2026
    Moments after Jesus foretells his death for the third time, James and John make one of the most shockingly self-centered requests in the Gospels: "Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory."

    In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul explains why the other disciples' anger was just as misguided—and why, if we're honest, we might have made the very same request.

    What if the biggest problem in your life isn't your circumstances, but your character?

    This week on The Connecting Podcast, Paul and Shelby discuss why Jesus begins the Sermon on the Mount with the Beatitudes, and how lasting transformation comes not from escaping hardship, but from a heart that is being changed by God's grace.

    It's possible to read the Bible, know the story, and still completely miss the point.

    In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, The Gospel According to Mark, as Paul examines Jesus' healing of blind Bartimaeus and explains the difference between reading this familiar story through the lens of religion and through the lens of the gospel.
