Words of Life: Weekly Christian Podcast with Testimonies & Teachings from the Salvation Army

What does God expect from our lives? In this episode of our series on the parables of Jesus, Major Cam Henderson explores one of Jesus’ more challenging stories: the Parable of the Barren Fig Tree.
Jesus tells the story of a fig tree that has been given time and care, yet continues to produce no fruit. The story is a serious reminder of the call to repentance and the importance of allowing God to transform our lives.
But the parable also points to God’s patience and grace. He gives us time, works in us, and calls us to become fruitful through His presence in our lives.
Join Major Cam Henderson as we explore Luke 13 and consider what it means to live a life that produces fruit for God and blesses the people around us.

What can an annoying, persistent friend teach us about prayer? In this episode of our series on the parables of Jesus, Major Cam Henderson explores Jesus’ surprising story of a friend who comes knocking at midnight asking for bread.
Through this humorous and unexpected parable, Jesus teaches His disciples to pray with confidence, persistence, and trust. But the lesson goes beyond simply getting what we ask for. Jesus reminds us that God is not reluctant to hear us. He is our loving Father who knows what we truly need and delights in giving good gifts to His children.
Join Major Cam Henderson as we explore Luke 11, the Parable of the Persistent Friend, and Jesus’ invitation to keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking.

What does it mean to truly follow Jesus? In this episode of our series on the parables of Jesus, Major Cam Henderson explores Jesus’ teaching about two builders: one who builds his house on solid rock and another who builds on sand.
Both houses face the same storm. The difference is what they were built on.
Jesus’ parable challenges us to look beyond simply hearing His words and consider whether we are actually putting them into practice. What foundation are we building our lives, our families, and our futures on? And when the storms of life come, will that foundation hold?
Join Major Cam Henderson as we explore Matthew 7 and Jesus’ powerful reminder that real wisdom is not simply knowing the truth, but living it.

What is Jesus asking us to do with the good news we've received?
In the first episode of our new five-week series on the parables of Jesus, Major Cam Henderson takes us to Mark 4 and the parable of the growing seed. Jesus describes a farmer who scatters seed, trusts that it will grow, and eventually returns for the harvest.
We may not understand exactly how God works in someone's heart, or what the future holds, but we can faithfully do our part. As followers of Jesus, we are called to scatter the seed of the gospel wherever we go, trusting God with the growth and the harvest.
Who first shared the good news with you? And who might be waiting for you to share it with them?
Join us for this new series as we take a deeper look at the parables of Jesus and what they reveal about the Kingdom of God and our lives as His people.
Scripture: Mark 4:26-29

In this re-air episode of Words of Life, Bernie Dake revisits a conversation with professor, author, and speaker Jason Thacker about the rise of artificial intelligence and what it means for followers of Jesus. Jason offers a biblical perspective on the questions AI raises about technology, humanity, wisdom, and the way we engage an ever-changing world.
Rather than blindly embracing new technology or simply rejecting it, Jason encourages Christians to slow down, ask thoughtful questions, and consider how technology is shaping the way we see God, ourselves, and one another.
