We all have opinions but it's more important to know what God thinks.

And we have our own but more importantly, we know the One who has all of the answers. And His opinion is really the only one that matters.

Each week Jay and Tom tackle life issues and provide Biblical answers that can strengthen your walk and your talk.

If you're a person of faith, they're here to encourage and equip you to "really believe what you say you believe is really real."

If you're not a person of faith, our podcast can provide some answers to questions you may have about why people of faith believe what they believe.

Jay Scribner was the lead pastor of Branson's First Baptist Church for over 25 years, ministered in many countries overseas, is author of the book "Jesus Follower: Beyond Belief, and heads the ministry Hope For America.

Tom Johnson is the worship minister at his fellowship, was in the entertainment business for over 30 years, and authors the daily blog "Derf Nerfel's Thought of the Day."

Together, they share from both life and ministry experience to bring encouragement and insight through this 30 minute weekly broadcast.

  • Parables and Illustrations - Our favorite stories to make a point

    Parables and Illustrations - Our favorite stories to make a point
    Mar 27 2026

    One of the best ways to help people catch your point is to use an illustration with which they can identify.

    - Jesus used parables...often.

    - Jan and Tom have used these stories to bring a truth to life throughout their ministries.

    These are some of Jay and Tom's favorites. They share these to inspire as well as equip you with an illustration that just might help when you're sharing with someone a truth.

    From canoe trips to tennis shoes, you'll see what they're saying. You might say "wow" or "Wow!" as they share stories, some illustrations and some true accounts, that just might make your day.

  • Legalism - Strain at a Gnat and Swallow a Camel

    Legalism - Strain at a Gnat and Swallow a Camel
    Mar 20 2026

    "If your hair's too long, there's sin in your heart!" - by Billy Strings

    Legalism isn't a new thing. Jesus had to deal with it when confronting the Pharisees of His day. Unfortunately, we have some people who have learned well from them, sticking to the letter of the Law.

    Instead of being present-day Pharisees, we can overcome that bad spirit with the Word, where we find the antidote.

    People judge the outward appearance, both inside and outside the Body of Christ. Unfortunately, that's the nature of worldly people. Christ followers play by a different "rule book"

    Instead of "excessive emphasizing of rules and regulations and strict literal adherence to them," we hold to two very vital Godly virtues:

    Love and grace.

  • Depression, Part 2 - Fixing your ruminator

    Depression, Part 2 - Fixing your ruminator
    Feb 27 2026

    Last week we dealt with the concept of depression: Where it comes from and the Biblical view of how to more than cope with it.

    This week we dig deeper into how the Bible speaks to how we more than just "meditate" or silence ourselves and the voices we often fight. Though changing our thought life (our ruminator) is vital to defeating the oppressive forces, we have been given Biblical truths to both defeat the voices and fill the silence.

    Philippians 4:8 and Lamentations 3:21-33 give us tremendous insight to how the Holy Spirit works to transform our minds into thinking God-thoughts. Biblical meditation isn't an emptying of our minds but filling them with His truth. We overcome the enemy by the blood of the Lamb and by our testimony.

    We don't fight feelings, we identify them, and then make them align with the Word of God. Faith overcomes fear. Truth overcomes the lie.
