Crash Course in Basic Christianity

Hebrews 13:1, 10 | Burden of Babylon

James 4:7 | How to Resist the Devil

April 16, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Pastor Doug explains how he knew that James said, “Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” – but found that it his efforts didn’t particularly work until he paid attention to how James says to resist.

1 Thess. 4:9–10 | Growth in the Christian Life

April 9, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Growth in the Christian life is a more and more sort of thing.

Eph. 5:33 | Love and Respect

March 19, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

God tells husbands to love their wives because wives need to be loved. God tells wives to respect their husbands because husbands need to be respected. Husbands and wives run on different fuel, and God is good and commands to our weaknesses.

Eph. 4:28, 5:4 | Vulgarity: A Function of Discontent

March 12, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

In the same way that not working honestly and hard tempts a man to steal, discontented grumbling and a lack of thanksgiving sets up a man for filthiness and foolish jesting.

Eph. 5:18, Col. 3:16 | Filled with the Spirit

March 5, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

In today’s video Pastor Douglas Wilson explains what it means to be “filled with the Spirit.” And as you can see, you get verses from two books for the price of one this week.

James 1:2–5 | Wisdom for Trials

February 26, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

James 1:5 tells us to ask God for wisdom. Often we quote this verse when seeking guidance for big life decisions. But the context given in verses 2–4 show us we need wisdom to deal with something entirely else.

John 3:17 | A Saved World

February 19, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Jesus does not give the salvation of the world the ‘old college try.’ In fact, John 3:17 shows us that God’s mission will not be fulfilled without a saved world.

Rev. 3:20 | Context is Key

February 12, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Pastor Doug looks at a very popular verse in the Book of Revelation that is often taken out of context and misapplied.

2 Cor. 12:12 | Signs, Wonders, and Mighty Deeds

February 5, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

2 Cor. 9:6–7 | Sowing and Reaping

January 29, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

There is no way to be a cheerful giver apart from faith. Sowing involves risk, but when Christians put seed in the ground they can trust God for both the rain and the harvest.

1 Cor. 10:1–6 | Parallels, Not Contrasts

January 22, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Pastor Doug teaches that Paul’s point in our passage today is that the church is indeed the New Israel—and we have many lessons to learn from the Old Israel.

1 Cor. 9:13–14 | The Minister's Paycheck

January 15, 2021 • Douglas Wilson

Rom. 10:9–13 | The Fundamental Christian Confession
