April 3

Bible v. Science
It’s an age-old dilemma: trying to harmonize what the Bible says with what modern science proclaims. Is truth nothing more than the interpretation of facts? Where does faith come in? Dr. Jennings suggests some insights and guidelines.
 MP3
April 10

The Aging Brain
Like it or not, we’re all aging. If we want to protect ourselves from what’s becoming more and more common these days, dementia, what should we do? Can brain function loss really be prevented? Dr. Jennings weighs in.
 MP3
April 17

The Impact of Fear
Life isn’t exactly for the timid. Fear is part of the experience. But can fear impact our physical health, relational abilities, and even the health of society in general? The Bible says fear can cause men’s hearts to fail. Dr. Jennings suggests an alternative.

April 24

God View
“And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit” (2 Corinthians 3:18). Dr. Jennings amplifies Paul’s insights.
 MP3
May 1

Healthy Aging
It’s a fact of life that we’re all aging. No matter if we’re eight or eighty, the clock is ticking. If we’re smart, we’ll want to know the answer to this question: can we age healthfully? Dr. Jennings suggests guidelines for fighting the destructive forces we all must face.
 MP3
May 8

Rest The Brain
When you’ve experienced a good night’s rest, your body feels great the next day. That same type of transformation happens in your brain as well. Bodies and minds need both rest and sleep.
 MP3
May 15

Feeding Thoughts
“You are what you eat.” You also “think what you eat.” Food is being implicated concerning many brain functions. What we eat impacts our ability to think and reason in life-changing ways.
 MP3
May 22

Interpreting the Bible
How is it possible that two people can read the very same Bible text and come away with two very different interpretations? It has to do with what came before.
 MP3
May 29

Fear of Death
There are some who are actually afraid of dying—and that fear can drive behavior. Should we be afraid? How should we look at death, so we can live life in a more positive state of mind?
 MP3
June 5

Forgiveness Myths
God calls us to forgive one another. How many times? “Seventy times seven” Christ suggests in Matthew 18:22. So, why is it sometimes so hard for us to forgive even once?
 MP3
June 11

Antidepressants
We all feel down in the dumps on occasion. Not to worry. We pop a pill and we’re on top of the world again, right? However, we should exercise caution when self-medicating depression.
 MP3
June 18

Old Testament
A lot happens when we move from the Old Testament to the New Testament. It’s almost like a whole new God shows up. Or are we simply not paying attention to the script?
 MP3
June 25

Resolving Guilt
Some describe it as a feeling in the pit of the stomach. Others say it’s that nagging sense that something isn’t right with the world. Guilt can be useful—or it can be very misleading.
 MP3
July 2

Suicide Risks and Prevention
It’s been called the permanent solution to a temporary problem. And it is on the rise. Dr. Jennings identifies the risks and provides some tools for the prevention of suicide.
 MP3
July 9

Telling Right from Wrong
The devil has made right and wrong almost interchangeable. He’s removed the barriers separating them. Dr. Jennings suggests how to begin telling one from the other.
 MP3
July 16

The Truth about Hell
We’re heard about it. We probably feel uncertain about it. One thing is for sure. It’s somewhere we don’t want to be. Using Scripture and reason, Dr. Jennings reveals the truth about hell.
 MP3
July 23

Near Death Experiences
How should we deal with the concept of “near death experiences” when we read glowing reports about them? Dr. Jennings explains that, while the experience is real, the interpretation often isn’t.
 MP3
July 30

ADHD
ADHD, the acronym for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, is a mental condition that makes life difficult for many. Dr. Jennings explains what’s going on, and how we may have gotten here.
 MP3

Demon Possession
Demon Possession. Is it possible for the devil to take complete control of you? And if that happens, what happens? Dr. Jennings offers insights and a warning.
 MP3
August 13

Roads We Travel Part 1
Proverbs 14:12 states bluntly: “There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.” That death may be physical, spiritual, social, or even mental. Dr. Jennings explains.
 MP3
August 20

Roads We Travel Part 2
We’re all traveling toward a deeper and more fulfilling understanding of our God and, yes, as the Beatles said, it can seem long and winding. Dr. Jennings suggests a road map to follow.
 MP3
August 27

The False Allure of Universalism
“Universalism” is an area of Christian theology focused around the view that all human beings will ultimately be “saved” and restored to a right relationship with God. Is that truth or error?
 MP3
September 3

Laughter
Remember the “Mary Poppins” song “I love to laugh. Ha, ha, haha. Loud and long and clear?” Dr. Jennings makes the connection between laughter, health, and God’s Word.
 MP3
September 10

Does God Do Harm
Medical doctors work under the directive to “Do no harm.” They’re in the business of healing, not destroying. Does that mantra also apply to God? Dr. Jennings examines the issue.
 MP3
September 17

Mind Change
Can our brains be changed by what we hear? Dr. Jennings explains how we’re all affected by what we observe and believe and how we can guard ourselves against the lies so prevalent today.
 MP3
September 24

Why Did God Tell Abraham to Kill Isaac?
It’s a story that some find hard to believe, but there it is, in the Bible. God is telling a man to kill his son. Dr. Jennings digs deep into the story to reveal truths many miss about Divine love.
 MP3
October 1

The Value of Discord
“I don’t agree with you,” is a common comment posted on social media. Society seems to be running on discord. Dr. Jennings shares some good news. Not all discord is bad!
 MP3
October 8

Solutions for Sick Societies
Humans and animals aren’t the only things that can get sick. So can whole societies. Is there a cure? Dr. Jennings says YES! The prescription some straight from the Bible.
 MP3
October 15

Sanctuary Lessons
“Let them build me a sanctuary,” God told His people in the Old Testament. Why? What purpose would it serve? The answer, says Dr. Jennings, is as much about theater as it is about salvation.
 MP3
October 22

Why Do We Need the Holy Spirit
He’s ready to help us through life. He’s insightful, a great teacher, and an amazing comforter. But, the Holy Spirit is much more than what most people think He is. Dr. Jennings explains.
 MP3
October 29

Does God Punish the Wicked
You sin, you get punished—and then die. Seems simple enough. But from where does that punishment and death come? Dr. Jennings reveals the surprising source of the wages of sin.
 MP3
November 5

Is God in Control?
“Don’t worry,” some say concerning troubling situations in the home, in the workplace, or in politics, “God is in control.” Comforting thought. But, just how accurate is it?
 MP3
November 12

God’s Design Laws for Life
When we hop into a car, airliner, or sit atop a tall building, we’re putting a lot of trust in those who designed them. We need to learn to trust the One who designed us just as much.
 MP3

 MP3

Why Did Jesus Have To Die?
The Christian faith tends to focus on one core event in history. The death of Christ. Everything else revolves around Calvary. But, why did Jesus have to die? Dr. Jennings provides answers.
 MP3
December 17

Truth and Evidence
Truth. It’s not exactly a favorite topic these days. Opinion is so much easier to explain and deal with. Speculation and conspiracy rule the roost. Who has time for the truth? We should!
 MP3
December 24

Medical Marijuana vs CBD Oil
It’s legal in many states and some say very effective. But there’s a downside. Medical Marijuana does contain some benefits, if you know where to look and what to leave out in the process.
 MP3
December 31

The Old Testament Sanctuary in the Desert served as a stage upon which important lessons about God were taught. Dr. Jennings identifies some that revealed Heaven’s plan of salvation.

Testimony 16

Your seminars are still inspiring and changing our lives and we continue to share the principles we have learned from you. Your ministry has changed our lives!

E.W.

 

Testimony 36

Thank you and may God continue to bless you as you share with others the intricacies of how we are all “fearfully and wonderfully made”. I must share that you have opened a whole new world to me, and I have found tremendous healing through what you have shared in two of your books, “Could It Be This Simple?” and “The God Shaped Brain.” I praise God for what you shared, what I have learned, and how I have grown and healed! My prayer is that My Precious Jesus will be seen by others in the way I live, act, talk, etc. and they may be encouraged to know He is truly a GREAT God of LOVE, desiring that no one should perish! God Bless you in your continued endeavors to present Him as He really is!

Testimony 62

I would like to express my thanks to the C&R team for creating a platform from which people can learn to trust in God and grow. My life is a witness to the effectiveness of this ministry. Without believing the truth about God as you have shown, I don’t know what my life would be like. I had given up on God helping me with certain sins – it was all useless. Given that the scripture is clear and God is so good, how could I have betrayed him so many times? I was a yo-yo christian; spinning up and down. My faith and enthusiasm was driven by discoveries/threats that prophecy is about to be fulfilled. But when I watched your “Healing the Mind” seminar, it was like a light finally went on. I could see God had no plan to hurt me, the danger came from sin, and that He is working to protect me and strengthen me. Thank you for allowing God to use you. The message God gave C&R saved my life!

Testimony 40

I was brought up in a different faith and have been petrified my whole life of God. I believed that I would burn in hell for eternity. When I was 12 I started pursuing the things of this world, but for the next 45 years the Spirit was always calling me, as I knew there was a God through nature. I could see the vast sea of stars in the universe and knew there was something bigger out there. Five years ago, through a Revelation seminar, I was blessed to learn about God’s character and government.

Then I found Come and Reason Ministries and have come under some extreme pressure when I speak about the ministry. One time a member sent me an internet article titled “Whats wrong with Tim Jennings?” I asked her what she thought of it and she said “I don’t know, I didn’t read it.”

I have always wanted to find out for myself the truth about God, so I stayed with the Design Law construct and have been liberated to understand the big picture. Once we consider Design Law, all other Bible stories and prophecies seem to fit perfectly. It is truly beautiful to see people grasping how God operates this Universe of Love and the liberation it has provided in their lives. It blows my mind to see how consistent Design law is with what our founders believed. I hear statements like “This makes so much sense.”

Testimony 60

Just watched watched lesson 10 in the 1st quarter 2021 bible study classs on Isaiah. I want to thank you for your intellectual spirituality; it’s not an oxymoron! From the point of view of a teacher I also enjoy seeing how much personal pleasure you clearly take in not just tasting, but feasting on God’s word – it reminds me of Jeremiah not being able to hold it in! It makes me smile that your cup is so full and overflowing that you make it to Tuesday’s lesson (on a good day). It just goes to show the richness of God’s Word.

God bless the Come and Reason Team from our church here in Great Britain.

Andrew H., Great Britain

 

Testimony 74

Thank you so much for opening my eyes. I’ve been through a lot of ministries that just didn’t show the love of God that I felt he was. You have helped me to begin the process of true healing. I thought I was “too far gone,” now I know there’s hope in Jesus, because he loves us beyond what we can comprehend. Thank you again for all you do. I truly appreciate it and pray more people find you (physical at your studio and through this website).

Dalio M.

Testimony 23

I would just like to add my voice to the many people who, I believe, must have contacted you to express their appreciation for the “Healing the Mind” DVDs. I’ve been listening to your Bible study class discussions for many years and I’ve been personally blessed by your research and teaching about the character of God.

L. G., Oakland, MI, USA

 

Testimony 57

You have helped make sense of thirty two years of confusion. The material you freely provide reorganized so much of my life into such a beautiful pattern that has always been hinted at from within, but misguided with my training and what I was experiencing externally. My filipno parents, who were converted from Catholicism to SDA, were sincere and did their best to raise me the right way and I have deep respect for them. However, being immigrants and not understanding the language made for a difficult transition as I was growing up, which also applied to my spiritual growth as I learned the patterns of religion. I have been listening to as many bible study classes and reading blog posts as my time in a work truck will allow, searching for the practical applications of where spirituality and reality meet, and I thank you for helping me find that. You have helped me reach a point in which I can truly say that I love God, that I believe He loves me, and, like David, I delight in His law. God bless.

Emmanuel V., Calgary, AB Canada

Testimony 70

I have been watching you for many years and have learned to love God with all my heart. I was raised by a loving Christian mother that had been lied to about who God really was, so our religious upbringing was hell fire and damnation. As soon as I was old enough and moved out, I not only left the church, I ran as fast as I could to get away from it. Sad to say, it wasn’t until the past couple of years that I learned and understand who my Father really is and how much He loves me. I understand God’s Design Laws (which make sense) and when I’m teaching my church Bible study class, I’m able to really put to use the things I’ve been learning and Holy Spirit is leading. Thank you for introducing me to my Father of true, pure love. Everyday with Him is new and exciting. One thing that breaks my heart is that I didn’t know Him sooner. God Bless you and your ministry!

Testimony 43

Two years ago I stumbled upon your book, “Could It Be This Simple,” and then found “The God-Shaped Brain” videos on YouTube, your bible study class, and the ‘Come And Reason’ mobile app. I shared your book with a friend and after nine months of showing love, patience, and kindness this person has been changed by the love of God, too. The same love that healed me, I now express to other women in tangible ways, such as to a Baptist woman with high anxiety and childhood trauma. She was extremely happy and relieved when I shared about the so-called “judgment of God” and burning in hell. She had no desire to serve a God that was so harsh. I have repeated the phrase dozens of times to her. “What we believe has power over us, but we have power over what we believe…”

This message that you are sharing has changed my life. I will continue to serve other women and bring this message of God’s healing love to their lives by sharing your books, YouTube videos, and The Remedy Bible app. Keep up the good work. Don’t be discouraged. God is doing a mighty work in and through this ministry!

Testimony 22

I have found your Bible study class lectures to be very inspiring and useful as I prepare to teach class every other week. I subscribe to the podcast and download your notes on the weeks I teach. The audio and notes are such a great help in preparing. My own understanding of God’s character has grown as I teach the class. Commendations on the thought-provoking and well-prepared material Come and Reason provides. Personally, I get excited by the tie you make between the spiritual and mental/physical domains.

Testimony 35

I am so pleased with the response your message is receiving at my church from the middle-aged to the young adults. I have given out 100 copies of the first two seminars and there are more request every week. One of my [class members] came to me after viewing the series, grateful and impressed with how easy the message was retained. He had been a Seventh-day Adventist in fear all his life, and felt like the scales were removed from his eyes after viewing the seminars. I am so impressed by the change I see in members who have received this message, we are in one accord. However, I am sadden by the negative response of the older people. I am verbally attacked anytime I talk about imposed laws, but I believe my mission is to enlightened everyone I can. I watch your Bible Study Class on YouTube every Friday night and I feel like I am apart of the class. All of you are in one accord and I am so blessed to have found you. I pray that all of you continue to spread this message and I am committed to doing my part.

Testimony 12

I have been really blessed reading your response to the various questions on your site.

K.C., OH, USA

 

Testimony 68

Your message of design law vs imperial law is so uplifting and makes so much sense- it is a game changer for me. The fact that Jesus’s death is not a big payment by an angry God is , quite frankly, a relief.

Laura G., London, Ontario, Canada

 

Testimony 64

I’ve been reading the bible and walking with Jesus since I was around 16. I’m 42 now. I’ve mostly been alone in my walk although I went to several churches in different denominations. For the past 3 years God has been showing me His character of agape. It’s been a blessing and changed how I view God and my walk with Jesus. About a year ago I came across the power of love and the principles of design law. These teachings changed how I read scripture and have been such a beautiful blessing. I’m very excited and grateful for these truths. We share these truths of agape, design law and the reality of the principles of the two trees in the garden of Eden with people on Facebook and YouTube. People all over are learning to trust God and His agape design law which makes life possible. Thank you for everything you shared with me. May God continue to bless your ministry and lives.
