  • Encouraged

    I greatly appreciate Dr. Jobe’s teaching, because I am just struggling. Putting one foot in front of the other is extremely hard. Dr. Jobe is truly encouraging me to go through the struggles and KEEP MY EYES ON JESUS AND NOT me.

  • Thankful for moody radio & Dr Mark Jobe

    I listen to Dr. Mark Jobe everyday on my lunch break via Moody radio. Sometimes I revisit the sermons through this podcast. I am grateful for Mark’s faithful and consistent preaching of God’s Word. It’s often the encouragement I need mid-day to set my mind on things above. I love how clear and straightforward Mark’s teaching is on our new life in Christ!! Dying to the old self, putting on the new. Thank you, Dr. Mark!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

What It Means to Restore Our God-Given ID -- Part 1
Q: I'm a believer that Jesus died for my sins. However, I committed some bad sins. I asked for forgiveness and his mercy. Why am I so afraid of not making it to heaven?
Jobe says salvation rests on Jesus' work, not a person's own worthiness. He cites 1 John 1:9 and encourages the listener to trust God's promise of forgiveness rather than give in to doubt, responding with gratitude and worship.
When It’s Hard to Make Sense of Your Current Chapter -- Part 1
Q: How can I change my mindset to genuinely follow God when my own will keeps pulling me toward myself?
Sanctification is an ongoing, normal battle where you continually put to death the old self, renew your mind with Scripture, surrender to the Spirit, seek accountability, and respond quickly to conviction, recognizing there is no magic bullet but steady growth through discipline.
Get Back What You’ve Lost -- Part 2
Q: Dear Pastor Mark, will we have personalities in heaven? Will I look like myself but not have my personality? Will people recognize me in heaven?
Pastor Mark responds that we will retain a core sense of ourselves—our identity and memory—while our personalities will be refined and sanctified in the presence of God, so we'll recognize others and be recognizable, but without the flaws that earthly sin has caused.
The Desert of Loneliness -- Part 1
Q: How should a couple handle premarital sex and financial concerns when one partner relies on Social Security?
The answer stresses honesty, conviction, and following legal and ethical guidelines, with a strong push toward abstaining from sex until marriage and seeking God's provision.
The Desert of Loneliness -- Part 1
Q: Is it wrong to want to get married in the eyes of the Lord without involving the government?
Mark affirms that marriage should follow the laws of the land and encourages pursuing purity, abstaining from sex until marriage, and seeking God's guidance rather than bypassing legal structures.
