  • The Lions Aren’t Loose
    Jul 14 2025

    Start a conversation!

    Sometimes fear feels louder than faith. But what if the roar wasn’t the threat—it was the test?

    In this episode of Wisdom & Wit, Bible teacher Chris Reighley walks alongside Christian in The Pilgrim’s Progress as he approaches Palace Beautiful, guarded by terrifying lions. He’s ready to turn back… until he hears the truth: “They are chained.”

    Psalm 34:7 says, “The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them.” That means God’s protection is already in place—even when the enemy is making noise.

    If you’ve ever faced circumstances that made you want to retreat, this episode reminds you: the lions can’t leap unless you leave the path. Stay close to your Shepherd. Stay centered on His truth.

    The lions may roar, but they’re on a leash.

  • The Fall: How It All Went Wrong
    Jul 13 2025

    Start a conversation!

    Ever looked around and thought, “What happened to this world?” The answer goes back to a garden, a lie, and a single decision with cosmic consequences.

    In this episode of Walking with God, Bible teacher Chris Reighley unpacks Romans 5:12 and the true story behind the Fall in Genesis 3. Sin didn’t sneak into creation, it entered through the front door of human rebellion. And its ripple effects touch every life, every headline, and every heart.

    But The Pilgrim’s Progress reminds us: even in judgment, God speaks promise. Christian flees Destruction because he read the Book—and he knew the story wasn’t over.

    If you’ve ever struggled with guilt, confusion, or the brokenness around you, this episode will anchor you in the truth: the world isn’t as it should be, but God hasn’t left it that way.

    The Fall explains the mess. But grace explains the hope.

  • Blessed Are Those Who Study Prophecy
    Jul 12 2025

    Start a conversation!

    Most blessings come with a catch. But not this one.

    In this episode of Footsteps of the Messiah, Bible teacher Chris Reighley uncovers the forgotten promise of Revelation 1:3—a blessing simply for reading, hearing, and keeping the words of prophecy. You don’t need a seminary degree or an end-times chart. You just need an open Bible and a willing heart.

    With fresh insight from The Pilgrim’s Progress, we’ll see how Christian’s journey was shaped by what he read in the Book. In the same way, prophecy isn’t designed to spook us—it’s meant to steady us. It magnifies Christ, clarifies our future, and calls us to walk in readiness.

    If you’ve ever avoided Revelation because it felt overwhelming, this episode will remind you: it’s not a mystery to decode—it’s a Savior to behold.

    📖 Read it. Keep it. Be blessed by it.
