Wisdom for the Heart
Dr. Stephen Davey
What happens when someone in the church refuses to repent? Is it loving to confront them; or should we just stay quiet? In this sobering episode, Stephen Davey explains the biblical framework for church discipline and the holy obligation members have to one another in matters of sin and accountability. Using passages from 1 Corinthians, Titus, Galatians, and 3 John, Stephen traces how church discipline is a spiritual act of love, not judgmentalism. He highlights the difference between discipling the willing and disciplining the defiant. You’ll hear what happened when one early church member, Diotrephes, abused his power and divided the church. Stephen also answers tough questions about judging others, when discipline is necessary, and how to respond with grace and truth. Whether dealing with doctrinal error, divisive behavior, or moral failure, the goal is always repentance, restoration, and the health of the body. Church discipline isn’t easy, but it’s essential. Without it, churches drift. With it, they grow stronger. This message will equip you to understand, embrace, and uphold a practice many fear, but Scripture clearly commands.

A New Beginning

God has never encountered a problem or a crisis too big for Him to handle. He’s never said, “Uh-oh.” So when we encounter something we can’t handle, we need to look to our God who can handle anything. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, as Pastor Greg Laurie returns to our studies of the life of David, we’ll see what happened when David faced a giant-sized problem. It’s a familiar story, but sometimes we miss the practical application. That’s Pastor Greg’s focus as we begin today’s study.

Wisdom for the Heart
Dr. Stephen Davey
How do believers from every background, personality, and preference truly get along? In this message from Ephesians 4:1–6, Stephen Davey explores the attitudes that hold the church together in a world full of division. Unity in the church isn’t based on uniformity—it’s not about everyone looking the same or thinking alike. Instead, it’s rooted in humility, gentleness, patience, and grace. Stephen walks through Paul’s practical teaching on how to preserve unity, rather than break it, and offers a powerful reminder that spiritual harmony doesn’t happen automatically—it’s protected through intentional, Spirit-led effort. You’ll learn how humility quiets pride, how patience responds in love, and how grace empowers you to forgive. You’ll also be reminded that unity is one of the most powerful witnesses of the gospel to a watching world. This episode challenges every believer to make the church a place of peace—not preference. A place of joy—not judgment. And a place where people of all kinds not only worship Christ together, but treat each other as family.
