In today’s message titled “The Word Is”, we gather around four foundational truths about the Bible:

It is True, Preserved, Precious, and Powerful.

Bro. Josh Van Meter begins by inviting us to examine our faith and the trustworthiness of Scripture. Can we really believe Genesis 1:1? Why would the apostles suffer and die for a lie? Through history, manuscript evidence, oral tradition, and the enduring witness of lives transformed, we uncover the strength behind the written Word of God.

From the overlapping lives of patriarchs to the sacrificial legacy of scribes and martyrs, this message takes us on a journey that shows how God’s Word has not only been preserved — but treasured and proven across generations.

We’ll hear testimonies of people like Corrie ten Boom and imprisoned believers who clung to fragments of Scripture as their only hope. We’ll reflect on our own hearts — is God’s Word truly our treasure?

And finally, we are reminded of the transforming power of His Word. It saves, convicts, renews, and breaks chains.

Let this episode stir you to fall in love with God’s Word again, teach it to your children, and live it out boldly — unashamed.

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation…” — Romans 1:16

Be stirred. Be grounded. Be transformed. The Word is… everything.
