  • The King and Priest Who Came at Christmas (Psalm 110)
    Dec 3 2025

    Psalm 110 doesn’t mention a manger, shepherds, or angels. Yet it gives us one of the clearest pictures of who the baby in Bethlehem really is: the eternal King and Priest who will rule over all and bring His people back to God.

    In this Christmas episode, we trace how Psalm 110 reveals the identity and mission of the Messiah and how the New Testament writers apply this ancient psalm directly to Jesus.

    In this week’s episode, we explore:

    • Why it matters that Psalm 110 is “a Psalm of David” and how Jesus Himself uses that authorship to reveal the Messiah’s greatness
    • What it means for the Messiah to sit at God’s right hand and how that image explains the authority and scope of His reign
    • How the promise that enemies will become a “footstool” points to a final, decisive victory over all evil and opposition to God
    • The surprising declaration that the Messiah is “a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek” and why that matters more than the Levitical priesthood
    • How Matthew 22, Acts 2, and 1 Corinthians 15 each reach back to Psalm 110 to identify Jesus as David’s Lord, God’s chosen King, and our eternal Priest
    • What Psalm 110 adds to our understanding of Christmas: not just the birth of a child, but the arrival of the One who will rule, judge, and reconcile forever

    After listening, you’ll come away with a clearer, richer vision of who Jesus is at Christmas, not only the promised son of David, but the greater Lord whom David himself calls “my Lord.” You’ll see how Psalm 110 anchors the Christmas story in God’s larger purpose: a reigning King, a forever Priest, and a sure promise that history is moving toward the day when every enemy is subdued and God’s people stand secure in His kingdom.

  • How to Know You're Saved Without Doubting
    Nov 19 2025

    Questions? Comments? Send Krisan a text

    How can a believer live with real confidence that they belong to God, even while they still struggle with sin?

    In this episode of Wednesday in the Word, Krisan Marotta walks through key New Testament passages to show how God marks His people inwardly (by a changed heart that endures through testing) and how that mark becomes the basis of true assurance of salvation.

    In this week’s episode, we explore:

    • Why the question “How do I know I’m saved?” is not only common but crucial
    • The biblical idea of God “marking” His people—not outwardly, but by circumcising the heart
    • How holiness is first a change in direction of the heart, not instant moral perfection
    • The fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5 and what these qualities reveal about a heart inclined toward God
    • How the Beatitudes in Matthew 5 describe the inner life of those who will enter the kingdom of heaven
    • The difference between sinners who don’t care about their sin and “righteous sinners” who grieve it and hunger for righteousness
    • Why common approaches to assurance—like relying on a remembered prayer or only on God’s general promises—can give false or incomplete comfort
    • How Romans 5 teaches that tested faith, proven through suffering and perseverance, produces a hope that “does not put us to shame”
    • Why God uses trials to reveal, both to us and to others, that His Spirit is truly at work in our hearts

    After listening, you’ll come away with a clearer, more biblically grounded understanding of assurance. You’ll see that the evidence of salvation is not a flawless life or a perfectly steady heart, but a tested faith that continues to seek God, hate sin, and long for His kingdom. And you’ll be encouraged to view your trials not as proof that God has abandoned you, but as the very means by which He makes it visible that you belong to Him.

  • 17 Examine Yourself: Paul’s Warning to Corinth (2 Corinthians 12:13-13:14)
    Nov 5 2025

    Questions? Comments? Send Krisan a text

    In this episode of Wednesday in the Word, we confront a bold question: “How do you know you’re truly in the faith?” Drawing on Paul the Apostle’s letter to the church at Corinth (2 Corinthians 12–13), we explore how genuine faith is more than appearances, more than impressive speech or credentials. It’s about the living power of Christ at work in weakness and integrity in community.

    In this week’s episode, we explore:

    • Why Paul refused financial support from the Corinthians and what that taught about his motives and their spiritual health.
    • How Paul responded to accusations of deceit and weakness—not by hiding, but by pointing to God’s power in human frailty.
    • The challenge and invitation of Paul’s command to “examine yourselves” to see whether you are in the faith.
    • The difference between outward appearances (strong, impressive, successful) and the reality of Christ’s power working through brokenness.
    • How Paul’s ultimate aim was not his own reputation but the restoration, maturity and unity of the church.

    After listening you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of how the gospel changes the way you view strength and weakness. You’ll feel encouraged that authentic faith isn’t about putting on a show—it’s about letting Christ live through you in honesty, dependence, and love for others. You’ll be equipped to ask yourself healthy questions about your own walk with God and your community in light of what Paul lays out here.
