Trusting in Providence, Part 2: Elijah’s Story

In Part 2 of this study on God’s providence, Ben Winslett turns from the doctrine itself to several powerful biblical examples of God’s faithful provision. Scripture is filled with accounts of the Lord overruling circumstances, directing events, and caring for His people according to His perfect wisdom. We conclude with a brief consideration of God’s care of the prophet Elijah: from feeding him with ravens to food supplies that never become exhausted.

As we consider Elijah’s experience, we are encouraged to trust the same God who continues to care for His people today. The Lord who provided daily bread in the days of Elijah remains faithful to sustain His children in every generation.

Trusting in Providence (Part 1): God Provides

What does the providence of God really mean? Is God only involved in the extraordinary moments of life, or is His hand at work in every breath, every provision, and every circumstance we face?

In this broadcast of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett begins a study of God’s providence by exploring the biblical truth that the Lord not only created all things, but actively sustains and governs His creation. From the birds of the air to the lilies of the field, Scripture reminds us that God faithfully provides for His people and calls us to trust Him rather than be consumed with fear and worry.

Christ our Sacrifice

In this episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett explores the biblical theme of sacrifice from Genesis to the New Testament. Why did God require sacrifices under the law? What was the difference between Cain and Abel’s offerings? How did the sacrifices of bulls, goats, and lambs point forward to Jesus Christ? Join us as we consider Christ, our perfect and final sacrifice, and the sacrifices believers are called to offer today in worship, praise, and service to God. Continue reading “Christ our Sacrifice”

Finding Rest in Christ

In today’s Words of Grace, Ben Winslett turns to Matthew 11 and Christ’s gracious invitation to the weary: “Come unto me… and I will give you rest.” This episode explores the burden of legalism, guilt, and striving—and the true rest found in Jesus’ finished work.

Raised According to the Will of God

In today’s broadcast, we turn to John chapter 6 and consider one of the most comforting truths in all of Scripture: that the resurrection of God’s people is rooted firmly in the will of God Himself. Jesus declares that all whom the Father has given Him will be raised up again at the last day, and that He will lose nothing. What does it mean for your eternal future to rest not in your strength, but in God’s sovereign purpose?

From John 6 to Romans 8 and Ephesians 1, we trace the unbreakable chain of salvation. The elect was foreknown, predestinated, called, justified, and will ultimately be glorified. This message reminds us that the same God who purposed salvation before the foundation of the world will surely complete it in the resurrection, raising His people incorruptible according to His will.

Hurdles to Fruitfulness

On this episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett brings a message from Matthew 13 on the parable of the sower, focusing on a theme that speaks directly to every believer: “Hurdles to Fruitfulness.”

While this familiar parable is often understood as describing different kinds of hearers, the Lord Jesus applies it in a deeply personal way with the exhortation, “Take heed therefore how ye hear.” In this message, we consider how that warning applies to us as disciples, and why it is that the word of God sometimes fails to bear fruit in our lives as it should.

The Suffering Servant Rises

In the conclusion of this special Easter-season message, Ben Winslett returns to Isaiah 53 to consider the very heart of the gospel. Why did Christ suffer? Why was the Servant wounded, bruised, and cut off out of the land of the living?

This message explores the substitutionary sufferings of Jesus Christ, the mystery of the cross, and the triumphant hope of the resurrection foretold in prophecy. Isaiah not only tells us that Christ would die for sinners, he also shows us that the Servant would prolong His days, see the travail of His soul, and be satisfied.

To Whom Is The Arm Of The Lord Revealed?

In this special Easter-season broadcast, Ben Winslett begins a two-part message from Isaiah 53 and Acts 8, focusing on the Ethiopian eunuch’s timeless question: “Of whom speaketh the prophet this?” Who is Isaiah describing in this remarkable prophecy?

In this first part, we consider how Christ is revealed in the Old Testament as the Arm of the Lord—God’s saving power made known in the promised Messiah. This message explores the opening verses of Isaiah 53, the unbelief of man, and the glory of Christ foretold centuries before His coming.

This episode is the first half of last year’s Easter message and sets the stage for next week’s conclusion on the sufferings, atonement, and resurrection victory of Jesus Christ!

Thanksgiving to God

In this episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett examines the subject of thanksgiving as presented in Scripture. From the voluntary offerings of Leviticus to Paul’s New Testament exhortations, and finally the example of the woman in Luke 7, we consider what true gratitude toward God looks like. This message invites listeners to reflect on their own thankfulness and the blessings found in Christ.

The Brothers and Sisters of Christ

In this week’s Words of Grace broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett considers a deeply comforting truth from Scripture: we are not only children of God, but Jesus actually calls us His brothers and sisters.

Drawing from parallel accounts in Luke 8 and Matthew 12, we explore the amazing and perhaps shocking assertion of Jesus that those who hear and do God’s commands are His true brothers and sisters. And according to Hebrews 2 , Christ is the Captain of our salvation and unashamed to call us brethren. Lastly, Hebrews 13 reminds us to let brotherly love continue! As brothers and sisters, we should treat one another differently.

Join us for this encouraging reflection on the family language of Scripture and the grace that binds us together in Christ.
