A Devotion for your drive into work: In a culture rushing through Christmas on empty, what if you remembered that the very breath that formed Adam now lives in you—and that the eternal life of Jesus is meant to shine through you today, not someday in the distant future? Pastor Brian Noble walks through Romans 5:12–17, Genesis 2:7, Job 33:4, John 1, John 3:16, and Jesus’ words about being the light of the world to show how Christ’s breath turns spiritually dead people into living, justified saints who carry His life into every sphere. The episode contrasts Adam’s sin and the spread of death with the “much more” of Christ’s abundant grace and gift of righteousness, emphasizing that eternal life begins now and reorients how believers see themselves and engage a possibly persecuting culture. Listeners are urged to let the life of Christ reign in them this Christmas season so that their hope, boldness, and good works become a lamp on a stand, shining in Washington State’s public square and pointing others to the Father’s glory We are transforming our hearts so we can shape the public square.

A Devotion for your drive into work: If God rescues the helpless, remains faithful despite betrayal, and promises everlasting restoration, how should that shape your response to failure and your hope for others in exile or despair? Drawing from Ezekiel 16, Pastor Brian Noble traces the prophetic cycle—blessing, infidelity, judgment, and redemption. God finds Jerusalem abandoned, rescues and blesses her, but she falls into greater idolatry than Sodom. Still, God’s covenant is everlasting: though judgment brings humiliation, repentance brings forgiveness and restoration for Jerusalem, Israel, and all sinners. The devotional urges believers to grasp this grace—living and witnessing as rescued, restored, and radically loved people, who spread hope, humility, and faithfulness in the public square. The prayer concludes: “Lord, thank you for your everlasting covenant and redemption. Let us walk as people set free and sent to testify of your mercy and truth.” We are transforming our hearts so we can shape the public square.

In this devotional from Romans 5:12–16, Pastor Brian Noble powerfully contrasts the consequences of Adam’s sin with the “free gift” of justification that comes through Jesus Christ. Listeners will hear how human effort and condemnation only lead to death, while acceptance of God’s unearned grace delivers transformation, peace, and “right standing” with God. The message encourages Christians to stop living under shame and instead embrace the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness—not by works, but by faith.

A Devotion for your drive into work: Will the Church go into the world as just another compromised voice—or as a purified, humble bride recently returned to Christ through repentance and heart change? Drawing from Ezekiel 16:23–43, Pastor Brian Noble unpacks the “prophetic cycle” of blessing, infidelity, judgment, and redemption. Jerusalem is pictured as an unfaithful wife who uses God’s gifts for idolatrous purposes and, as a result, faces exposure, loss, and discipline. But God’s purpose, even in His anger, is to bring about repentance and restoration—so the bride may once again be holy, devoted, and used powerfully in the world. The lesson is deeply relevant for modern believers and churches: only those who undergo true heart change and walk in ongoing repentance can influence the public square for God’s kingdom, rather than blend in with the world’s values. The prayer closes, “Lord, forgive us, cleanse my heart, restore me, and make me useful for your kingdom today.” We are transforming our hearts so we can shape the public square.

The message urges believers not to compartmentalize their faith, but to let Christ be visible in all five God-instituted spheres—self, family, church, government, and work—fulfilling Abraham's legacy of believing God and letting righteousness shine for others to see..

A Devotion for your drive into work: What if your faith could help unlock someone else’s eternity? Step into the public square with a light that refuses to dim—and discover why your visible walk with God matters more than you think Pastor Brian Noble unpacks the powerful doctrine of “righteous credit,” showing how faith in God's promises resulted in righteousness being credited to Abraham—and now to every believer in Christ. The devotional contrasts living in willful disobedience versus walking in newness, stressing that God not only forgives but sanctifies, redeems, and imputes purity to those who trust Jesus. Believers are urged to let God’s righteousness flow out of their lives, confidently reflecting holiness in the public square, because their spiritual standing depends not on their own goodness, but entirely on Christ’s finished work.

A Devotion for your drive into work: If God unfailingly fulfilled every promise to Abraham—despite years of waiting, setbacks, and impossibilities—will He not also keep every promise He’s given you in Christ? Pastor Brian Noble traces the concrete promises given to Abraham: a land, a nation, blessing for all nations, and a relationship through covenant obedience. He affirms that the same faithful God offers believers freedom, forgiveness, daily provision, peace, and eternal life in Christ. The application: cling to God’s proven track record in history; confess sin boldly; pray for provision, protection, and peace; and advance biblical values in the public square. God’s faithfulness to Abraham ensures His faithfulness to every promise in the gospel—so stand firm, believe without wavering, and live each day fully assured that nothing can snatch believers from His hand.

A Devotion for your drive into work: When promises clash with circumstance, will you contemplate your limitations or God’s ability—can you stand firm, refuse to waver, and glorify God even before the answer comes? Pastor Brian Noble teaches that biblical faith means conviction and assurance about God’s word, not a denial of reality. Abraham acknowledged his body and Sarah’s womb “as good as dead,” yet he stayed confident in God’s faithfulness. Faith, defined as assurance of things hoped for and evidence of things unseen, pleases God and activates miracles. The practical lesson calls for believers to build faith by hearing God’s word, pray without doubting, crucify fleshly desires daily, and advance biblical values publicly. Faith in Christ’s resurrection and power enables believers to persevere, pray boldly, and live with hope, assurance, and victory regardless of what is seen.

A Devotion for your drive into work: If God rescued, adorned, and loved us before we could do anything to earn it, why do we so quickly use His gifts for selfishness or compromise, instead of surrender and worship? Pastor Brian Noble reviews Ezekiel 16, showing how Jerusalem was helpless, abandoned, and spiritually dead, yet God rescued her, entered into an everlasting covenant, and lavished her with royal blessing. Tragically, Jerusalem (and by analogy, believers) then played the harlot—forgetting her origin, devoting God’s blessings to idols, and losing sight of God’s calling. Yet God’s covenant endures; there is always a cycle of redemption and restoration for those who repent and return. The application is deeply personal and civic: do not cheapen God’s grace or use His blessings for unworthy ends. Instead, return to Him in humility, honor the work of Christ, and let every action in the public square be driven by loyalty and love for the Redeemer.

A Devotion for your drive into work: Even when your reality shouts “impossible,” true faith clings to God’s promise and praises Him before the answer comes. Pastor Brian Noble breaks down Romans 4 and Hebrews 11, describing Abraham’s “hope against hope”—his refusal to let circumstances shape his faith. Abraham considered his body and Sarah’s womb “as good as dead” but chose to believe God’s word over visible evidence, resulting in strength, joy, and the crediting of righteousness. The lesson invites believers to realistically acknowledge difficulty without weakening in faith, to pray for miracles, and to give praise before answers arrive. Application: In life and public witness, cling to God’s promise, expect resurrection of dead hopes, resist the urge to “go back to Egypt,” and glorify God as the ultimate Redeemer whose power makes all things new.

A Devotion for your drive into work: Abraham was promised both a great nation and a multitude—so the gospel in Christ breaks every wall and gathers every ethnic group into one spiritual inheritance. Pastor Brian Noble traces Genesis 12 (great nation/Israel) and Genesis 17 (multitude of nations/global church) and shows, with Galatians 3–4, that God deliberately broadened Abraham’s covenant to welcome Gentiles into one spiritual family. The promise is received by faith alone—not by law, ethnicity, or ritual. Paul argues every believer is a child of Abraham and an heir, whether Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female—united in Christ’s redemption and no longer spiritual slaves. The practical application: defend biblical unity, honor Jewish and Gentile identities, seek national blessing through repentance, and advance biblical values with courage and humility, knowing the church and Israel both share in God’s love and calling.

A Devotion for your drive into work: What force is driving your daily choices—fear, anger, old lusts, or God’s unseen grace that animates all true faith and purpose? Pastor Brian Noble uses vivid metaphors from daily life to illustrate “in accordance with grace”: just as gravity enables cycling and electricity powers appliances, so grace invisibly empowers faith, hope, and kingdom living. Drawing from Romans, Ephesians, and public square application, the teaching calls believers to base their confidence, fruitfulness, and courage on God’s grace, not their past, abilities, or reputation. The prayer closes with a call to live according to God’s grace and defend biblical values wherever you go, trusting that God’s unseen power and newness of life flow through every part of your daily witness.

A Devotion for your drive into work: If the law only reveals sin, not salvation, what will free you from guilt and bring real transformation—rules or a Redeemer? Drawing deeply from Romans 4:13 and passages in Matthew, Galatians, and Corinthians, Pastor Brian Noble shows that the promise to Abraham is fulfilled “not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.” The law acts as a mirror, reflecting each person’s true spiritual condition and pointing to the impossibility of self-justification. Its purpose is not salvation, but conviction that leads to Christ. The call is practical: share the gospel by first identifying human need—the problem of sin—then point to Jesus, who rescues, justifies, and transforms by grace. Application: in every sphere, humbly confess your sin, rely on Christ, lead others to the Savior, and pray for spiritual revival in your communityn.
