On this episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve kicks off a brand-new week with encouragement, biblical insight, and powerful conversations designed to help listeners live more like Jesus every day.

First, Steve dives into a thought-provoking discussion from Lecrae’s The Deep End podcast featuring God Logic, unpacking how Christians can confidently defend their faith when challenged by other belief systems. Using Colossians 1:15 and the doctrine of the Trinity, Steve explains why biblical context matters and how Scripture interprets Scripture.

Then listeners share their heartfelt “Sunday Morning Takeaways,” including lessons on being the salt of the earth, the faithfulness of God, Proverbs 31 motherhood, and one unforgettable testimony of a son giving his life to Christ on Mother’s Day.

Later, pastor and author Scott Stewart joins the show to discuss his fascinating new book 37: Discovering the Mystery of the Gospel in the Miracles of Jesus. Together, Steve and Scott explore the deeper meanings behind Jesus’ miracles, including the woman with the issue of blood, the miraculous catches of fish, and the wedding at Cana. Their conversation reveals how Old Testament expectations illuminate the identity of Jesus as Messiah.
