What if you don't want the responsibility of ruling over cities as Jesus indeed promised would happen? Listen in as Bob, Shawn, and Lucas discuss 2 Tim 2:12 and what reigning with Christ will look like. It will be a chance to love your neighbors–a position of service.

Yesterday on Grace in Focus Radio we discussed the two future judgments. Today, we continue that discussion with a focus on rewards in The Parable of the Minas in Luke 19:11-27. The rewards we receive based on our faithfulness here will be used in the kingdom.

Jesus was very clear that there will be two separate judgments–one for believers and one for unbelievers. As believers in Jesus, our salvation is secure and our rewards are in view at The Judgment Seat of Christ. Listen in to today's discussion with Bob, Shawn, and Lucas as they go through Scriptures that show this distinction.

Hebrews 11:6 says, "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him." Bob, Shawn, and Lucas discuss what it takes to please God. He wants us to live an abundant life and He wants to reward us.  If you want to please God, you must diligently seek Him.

When we are diligent in this life to serve Jesus and serve others, we earn eternal rewards. So is it wrong to be motivated by eternal rewards to do good now? Listen in to this interesting discussion between Bob, Shawn, and Lucas.

Multiple times throughout his letters, Paul uses sports as an analogy for effective Christian living. Bob, Shawn, and Lucas discuss many of these pivotal NT passages to encourage you to endure in your faith.

God desires to shower us with rewards. What are you doing in this life to merit these rewards in the life to come? Bob, Shawn, and Lucas discuss the topic of earning eternal rewards and how that contrasts with the security of eternal life.

Today on Grace in Focus Radio, we start a new series on Eternal Rewards. Lucas Kitchen joins Bob Wilkin and Shawn Lazar to discuss his book Eternal Rewards: It Will Pay to Obey. They discuss a brief overview of upcoming discussions and how important eternal rewards are as a Christian discipline.

Today, we wrap up our series on The Parables of Jesus. Bob Wilkin and Shawn Lazar discuss The Parable of the Fig Tree found in Luke 21:29-33. Jesus foretells His impending return, urging His listeners to heed His warnings. Are you living in light of His soon return?

As a believer, eternal life is absolutely free while eternal rewards are earned. How faithful a life are you living here on this earth? Today, Bob and Shawn discuss the Parable of the Minas found in Luke 19:11-27. We should long to hear Jesus say, "Well done, good servant."
