We'll have a Q&A session so you can ask your biblical and theological questions or questions about Renewing Your Mind. Mrs. Sproul is planning to attend, and you'll have the opportunity to meet other listeners. Meet me, plus there'll be giveaways. This is a free event, but due to limited capacity, registration is required. You can learn more and register at renewingyourmind.org slash Dallas.

And I hope to see you on Thursday night or in other cities across the United States throughout 2025. We'll be sure to let you know when future dates are announced. And again, thank you for listening to Renewing Your Mind as we celebrate 30 years of broadcasting truth. Next time, R.C. Sproul will ask a simple question that has a profound answer. How do you spell joy?

See you tomorrow here on Renewing Your Mind.

Since Scripture commands us to rejoice, joy is a duty for the Christian. But how can that be, especially when Scripture also commands us to weep with those who weep? Joy will be our theme this week on Renewing Your Mind, so be sure to listen every day.

To help you study the topic of joy further and prepare for the Christmas season, when you give a donation of any amount at renewingyourmind.org, we'll send you Dr. Sproul's title, Can I Have Joy in My Life?, and his Christmas devotional, The Advent of Glory, while also giving you lifetime digital access to this series on joy.

So give your gift today at renewingyourmind.org or by using the link in the podcast show notes. In an anxious world, how can the Christian have joy and obey the command to rejoice always? Here's Dr. Sproul.

Jesus' healing ministry was controversial and upset the religious leaders of the day. Why? Jesus healed on the Sabbath. As we heard last Sunday, he touched an unclean leper. And today, not only will he heal a paralytic, he'll be accused of blasphemy because he claims to have the authority to forgive sin. Thanks for joining us for this Sunday edition of Renewing Your Mind.

I'm your host, Nathan W. Bingham. R.C. Sproul served as the first minister of preaching and teaching at St. Andrew's Chapel in central Florida. And this sermon series in Mark's gospel was preached there.

Although we'll only spend a few weeks in Mark, you can study the entire gospel when you request Dr. Sproul's hardcover expositional commentary with your donation of any amount at renewingyourmind.org. Thank you for your support as you make it possible to keep renewing your mind freely available to countless Christians around the world every single day.

If you have your Bible with you, turn to Mark chapter 2. Here's Dr. Sproul.

If that describes you, can I encourage you to visit renewingyourmind.org slash guilt to request a free copy of R.C. Sproul's booklet, What Can I Do With My Guilt? No donation is required, so please request your free copy today. You're listening to the Sunday edition of Renewing Your Mind. I'm your host, Nathan W. Bingham.

We're currently considering some of the early moments in Jesus' earthly ministry, but you can study all of Mark's gospel when you give a donation of any amount in support of Renewing Your Mind at renewingyourmind.org or by using the convenient link in the podcast show notes. As our way of thanking you for your support, we'll send you Dr. Sproul's hardcover expositional commentary.

In the Gospel of John, Jesus uses several metaphors to describe himself, including the bread of life, the light of the world, and the Good Shepherd. But what do they teach us about Jesus? Welcome to the Saturday edition of Renewing Your Mind. And over the next few weeks, R.C. Sproul will walk us through several of these I Am sayings of Jesus from John's Gospel.

These messages are from Dr. Sproul's Knowing Christ series, and we'll send you this series on DVD, along with digital access to the messages and study guide, plus his title, Who Is Jesus?, when you give a donation of any amount at renewingyourmind.org to help fuel the reach of Renewing Your Mind, an outreach that has been listener-supported for three decades.

Well, here's Dr. Sproul on why Jesus said that he's the bread of life.

That was R.C. Sproul on this Saturday edition of Renewing Your Mind, teaching from John's Gospel. Who is Jesus? That's a question that many have tried to answer, some inventing a Jesus of their own imagination. But who we need is the Jesus of Scripture. And in this series, Knowing Christ, Dr. Sproul walks through how Jesus describes himself using eight of his I Am sayings from the Gospel of John.

This series comes with a study guide and will grant you lifetime digital access to it and the messages, send you the series on DVD, and send you Dr. Sproul's title, Who is Jesus?, when you give a gift of any amount at Renewing Your Mind before midnight tonight. Your generosity today is helping expand the reach of Renewing Your Mind and produce more teaching that is faithful to God's Word.

When we think about the theological questions surrounding the sovereignty of God, His providence and evil in the world, we typically think about Adam's sin and the fall of mankind. But what about how God's providence relates to your sin and to temptation in your life? This is the Thursday edition of Renewing Your Mind. I'm your host, Nathan W. Bingham.
