- Samson’s Finest Hour (39:27)
From Samson’s roller coaster life, we learn that whenever the Spirit of God starts to work, incredible victories can be accomplished by means of the most unlikely instruments. - Out of Control (46:52)
Samson’s story proves that smart people can do some very stupid things. Because he never appreciated his spiritual heritage, he was quick to throw it away. - Most Likely to Succeed (47:27)
Samson is the perfect man for the 21st-century. He was the American Idol of the Old Testament, born with every advantage you could ask for. His story proves that a good beginning doesn’t guarantee a good end.

Who Gave You This Authority?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Monday, March 15
“Who gave you this authority?” (Matthew 21:23)Religious types are always big on authority issues.Who are you?Where did you come from?Who gave you the right to teach here?What school did you attend?Where is your diploma?Why didn’t you ask us for permission?Who do you think you are, anyway? ...

Who Is My Mother?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, March 14
“Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” (Matthew 12:48)Sometimes Jesus could seem rude. Or maybe blunt would be a better word.But perhaps we have not understood him correctly. Jesus stood in a dual relationship to his mother Mary and to his earthly brothers and sisters. They were indeed part of his earthly family. He never denied th... Read more
Who Do You Say That I Am?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, March 13
“Who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15)It all comes down to this eventually. Here is a question everyone must answer. In the Greek text, that word you has an enormous stress. In fact, the you really goes at the first of the sentence. It is as if Jesus is saying, “But you who have followed me and have known me from th... Read more
Who Touched Me?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, March 12
“Who touched me?” (Luke 8:45)It seems like an absurd question. With so many people pressing in upon Jesus, how could anyone know who touched him? So many people wanted to be near him, it could have been any man or any woman in the crowd. But the Master knew that someone had touched the edge of his garment and at that moment a mighty mir...

Whose Wife Will She Be?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Thursday, March 11
“At the resurrection whose wife will she be, since the seven were married to her?” (Luke 20:33)This is a trick question, right?Talk about a run of bad luck. A woman marries a man who dies leaving her with no children to carry on the family name. So along comes the younger brother who marries her and then dies leaving her with no childre... Read more
How Do You Know Me?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, March 10
“How do you know me?” (John 1:48)Little things mean a lot.Nathanael couldn’t figure out how Jesus knew who he was. They had never met, and Nathanael knew nothing at all about Jesus. Though he had no opinion about Jesus, Jesus had a high opinion of him, saying, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is nothing false&rdqu... Read more
To Whom Shall We Go?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Tuesday, March 9
“Lord, to whom shall we go?” (John 6:68)Jesus is too much for some people.Sometimes the words of Jesus seem too strong, his demands too strict, his sayings too mysterious to understand. Sometimes the problem is simply that Jesus asks for everything, and that’s more than we are willing to give.In this case Jesus has just revealed t... Read more
Why Did You Doubt?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Monday, March 8
“Why Did You Doubt?” (Matthew14:31) When Jesus says, “Come,” you’d better come.When he says, “Walk,” you’d better walk. In Peter’s case, he was safer out on the water than in the boat. At that moment, the smartest thing Peter could do was to get out of the boat. Once Peter was fully on th... Read more
Who Then Can Be Saved?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Sunday, March 7
“Who then can be saved?” (Luke 18:26)The answer is simple, really.Apart from God no one can be saved.That’s the whole point of the camel through the eye of a needle. Have you ever heard anybody explain this by saying that the eye of the needle represents some kind of tiny passageway into the city of Jerusalem and you had to kneel... Read more
Where Are the Nine?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Saturday, March 6
“Where are the nine?” (Luke 17:17)Jesus asks three questions. 1. Were there not ten healed? Yes.2. Where are the other nine? Gone.3. Is there no one here but this foreigner? No one.If you listen carefully, you can hear surprise, shock and most of all sadness. Jesus wanted to know about the others. Where are they? Weren’... Read more

Why Does He Eat With Sinners?
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, March 5
“Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and ’sinners’?” (Matthew 9:11)Evidently Jesus hung out with a bad crowd.We know that because the super-religious types found it offensive. One translation catches the flavor this way:"Why does your teacher eat with such scum?” (NLT)There are many ways to answer that ... Read more
