Blessings in Christ

In this episode of Let The Bible Speak, evangelists Brett Hickey and Jonathan Edwards conduct an in-depth study of Ephesians 1:15-22 titled “Blessings in Christ.” The discussion addresses the fundamental questions of human value and self-perception, contrasting worldly judgments with biblical truth. Key topics include the necessity of spiritual wisdom, the significance of Christ’s resurrection power, and the believer’s inheritance. The presentation concludes by illustrating Christ’s absolute authority as the Head of the Church, providing a framework for understanding the true worth of every Christian within His body.

Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians

In this episode of Let the Bible Speak, Brett Hickey is joined by Jonathan Edwards for a discussion of Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Together, they explore God’s eternal purpose in Christ, the unity of believers in one body, and the practical call to walk worthy of that calling. From the riches of grace in the opening chapter to the armor of God in the closing verses, this conversation highlights both the theological depth and daily application of Ephesians — reminding us to stand firm in Christ and live transformed lives.

The Resurrection – Part 2

In this message on The Resurrection (Part 2), Brett Hickey digs deeper into the foundation of the Christian gospel — the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. He explains why the resurrection is not simply a hopeful metaphor but a historical reality essential to salvation, grounding his points in the Gospel accounts and the teachings of Paul. Drawing on the significance that early Christians were willing to die for this claim, Hickey emphasizes that Christianity stands or falls on the reality of Christ’s rising from the dead. Because Jesus was raised physically, believers have a living Savior, forgiveness of sins, and the hope of future resurrection. The message calls listeners to respond not with passive assent but with radical faith that shapes life and obedience.

The Resurrection – Part 1

In this episode of Let the Bible Speak, Brett Hickey presents a thoughtful and compelling case for the resurrection of Jesus Christ, emphasizing that Christianity rests on evidence rather than blind faith. Brett begins by establishing the centrality of the resurrection to the gospel itself, noting that without it, the message of Christ collapses entirely. Drawing from Scripture, he explains that the resurrection was not an afterthought, but the cornerstone of God’s redemptive plan, openly proclaimed and defended from the very beginning of the church. As the lesson unfolds, Brett examines both biblical testimony and historical considerations surrounding the resurrection. He highlights the eyewitness accounts recorded in the New Testament, the transformation of the apostles from fearful followers to bold proclaimers, and the inability of Christ’s enemies to refute the empty tomb. Brett stresses that these facts demand an explanation and that the resurrection best accounts for the rise and persistence of the early church. The message underscores that faith in Christ is grounded in verifiable events witnessed, recorded, and preached publicly. In the concluding portion, Brett Hickey turns to the practical and eternal implications of the resurrection. He shows that the resurrection gives meaning to obedience, provides hope in … Read more

The Great Mystery (Part #2)

In this follow-up study titled “The Great Mystery, Part 2,” Evangelist Brett Hickey is joined again by Aaron Studdard as they continue examining Paul’s teaching in Ephesians 5 concerning marriage and the relationship between Christ and the church. Building on the foundation laid in the first lesson, Brett guides the discussion deeper into Paul’s inspired comparison, emphasizing that the apostle’s words are not merely practical advice for families, but a revelation of God’s redemptive design. Together, they explore why Paul uses marriage language to describe the spiritual union between Christ and His people. As the study progresses, Brett and Aaron focus on how Christ’s love defines the meaning of headship, sacrifice, and unity within the marriage relationship. Aaron highlights how Christ’s self-giving love sets the standard for husbands, while Brett emphasizes that the church’s willing submission to Christ is rooted in trust, devotion, and reverence — not coercion. Their discussion clarifies that Paul is not elevating marriage above Christ, but rather using marriage as a visible illustration of the gospel itself. The relationship between husband and wife is shown to be patterned after the greater reality of Christ’s saving work for the church. In closing, Brett Hickey and Aaron Studdard … Read more

The Great Mystery (Part #1)

In this study titled “The Great Mystery,” Evangelist Brett Hickey is joined by Aaron Studdard as the two explore Paul’s striking comparison between marriage and the relationship between Christ and the church. Brett introduces the central question raised by Ephesians 5: how can the bond between a husband and wife possibly reflect something as profound and holy as Christ’s union with His people? Rather than treating the passage superficially, Brett and Aaron frame the discussion around Paul’s stated purpose — that this comparison reveals a “great mystery” rooted in God’s eternal plan. As the conversation unfolds, Brett and Aaron work together to clarify what Paul meant by a “mystery.” They emphasize that a biblical mystery is not something unknowable, but something once hidden and now revealed through the gospel. Aaron helps draw out how marriage was designed from the beginning to point beyond itself, serving as a living illustration of Christ’s sacrificial love, leadership, and covenant faithfulness toward the church. Brett reinforces that the passage is ultimately Christ-centered, reminding listeners that Paul’s primary concern is not merely improving marriages, but revealing the nature of Christ’s redemptive relationship with His people. In closing, Brett Hickey and Aaron Studdard challenge viewers to … Read more
