A Rescue Operation

Ever dodged something — a closed door, a deal that fell through — only to realize later it spared you? Proverbs called that righteousness, not luck. In two short, sharp verses, we find a quiet but radical claim: a life oriented toward God carries a kind of built-in protection, while the traps the wicked set tend to find their true owner. A look at how trouble finds its way home, and how our words become either a wrecking ball or a rescue line.

Passage: Proverbs 11:8–9

About the Podcast

Be Still and Know
“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10
Scripture, taught slowly and without rush. Be Still offers full expository sermons that walk carefully through the text, plus shorter midweek episodes to steady your week. Named for the verse my grandmother held close all her life — and offered now as a place to stop, listen, and remember who God is.
In a loud and hurried world, come and be still.

I'm Jeff — the heart behind Be Still and Know. This show started from a simple desire: to slow down and actually sit with God's Word, without the rush. It's named for Psalm 46:10, my grandmother's favorite verse — "Be still, and know that I am God." Every episode, I try to walk through Scripture honestly and carefully, paired with original songs, as a place for you to pause in the middle of a noisy week and be reminded of who God is. I'm glad you're here.
