March 1	Episode 9: The Power of Love Part 6 – Old Testament Through Design Law The story of the woman taken in adultery reveals a simple truth about God. He looks at us differently from how the world looks at us. Christ’s words reflect who God is and how God acts.	MP3

April 12	Episode 15: The Power of Love Part 12 – Who is Trustworthy? How do we determine if someone is trustworthy? That would be a good thing to know, wouldn’t it? Dr. Jennings offers some powerful guidelines to help us do just that.	MP3
April 19	Episode 16: The Power of Love Part 13 – Life Defined What does it mean to be alive? What does it mean to be a sentient human being? Dr. Jennings tackles this sometimes controversial topic with evidence straight from God’s world.	MP3

May 31	Episode 22: The Power of Love Part 19 – God’s Judgment “The Hour of God’s Judgment has come.” This proclamation has been spoken from many a church pulpit over the years. But, do we really understand what “God’s Judgment” is?	MP3

June 14	Episode 24: The Power of Love Part 21 – War of Truth The Bible identifies a war that’s raging and puts us—God’s people—right in the middle of it. But we’re not to wage war as the world does. There are major differences. Dr. Jennings explains.	MP3

July 26	Episode 30: Predestination Predestination means “the divine foreordaining of all that will happen, especially with regard to the salvation of some and not others.” Is there any hope for those of us not on the “save” list?	MP3
August 2	Episode 31: Healthy Decision Making Decisions. We face them everyday—from what to do, what to say, or even what to believe. It would benefit us to know how to make decisions that would actually help instead of hinder us.	MP3

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!

After coming into contact with Come And Reason Ministries, I can finally say that many of my unanswered questions have fallen into place. I discovered that my view of God’s Law was “imposed laws and rules” with “imposed punishments” and that this was the major culprit of my many unanswered questions. Thanks be to God for using you and those around you to help us who have struggled with this "infection" of thought. I have now rejected the "imposed law" concept to fully embrace “Design Law”... to look thru “Design Law,” instead of “imposed law,” is a relief.

I have been sharing Come And Reason Ministries Bible study lessons with several folk. You have such a beautiful view of the plan of salvation. If we had this message preached when I was young, my generation would still all be in church.

I just want to tell you how blessed I have been reading "The Remedy!" It has become a daily part of my devotional relationship with God. In it I have found a God of love and a God that loves me! The bible has come alive for me! It is the first time that I can say that I have felt hope fill my heart as I have read God's word. This is good news I can share! Thank you, Dr Jennings! Thank you for your heart for others. I can't put into words how this has set me free! It has strengthened my trust and love for God.

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 32

The message [of Come And Reason Ministries is] for all Christians (and those who may become Christians) and not just Adventists or any other group. It is difficult to imagine why any [anyone] with intellectual and spiritual honesty could find fault with the way you explained the healing substitution concepts and the truth about God's character, though I know some will reject and criticize. On behalf of those in our group near Tacoma, WA, thank you and your staff for all of the hard work and for sharing the Gospel in this manner. God's message of healing love will be carried to the whole world and then Jesus will come - He promised it.

Testimony 51

I Love This Ministry!!!!!!! I see first hand how this message is desperately needed, how erroneous beliefs about God and His Character negatively affect humanity at every level. I thank God for your ministry, as I was searching on my own and was discovering some of your same beliefs and was blown away when I found your ministry. I know you hear it all the time, but it is truly life changing. May God continue to reveal His Will to you and Bless you!

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 29

Thank you for all of your work to correct misconceptions about God's character. So many people that my husband and I have talked to seem to be against the natural law construct and view it as "errant" and "dangerous." Having learned more about it through your blogs and lessons, I don't really understand why they view it that way, except that it means they have to relearn theology they have known for their entire lives. But I'm so excited to relearn this. For the past few years I have been questioning how I could trust a God who punishes arbitrarily and is full of wrath for those who don't obey His commands. That view made me afraid to "mess up" or "not be good enough," even within my relationship with God. I really appreciated the point you bring out about God not wanting us to serve Him because we are afraid, but because we love Him.

Melissa H., IN, USA

Testimony 24

I wanted to thank you very much for presenting your understanding of God. I've always been troubled by this question: Why did Jesus have to die? Since my conversion I understood that The Father & Jesus are one, I did not have issues with that. But was there not any other way to save us than for Jesus to die? I guess I actually had a question about God – if He is so wise, how come He did not find another way? I did not see the real 'beauty' in the cross. Only when you explained the picture in the medical context, Jesus providing medicine for my selfishness, have I started to finally 'see the light'. Thank you so much. Your seminar, "Healing the Mind," are absolutely marvelous & have shared them with my family and many other people, including colleagues at work. Thanks, thanks, thanks. May God bless you abundantly in your ministry.

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.

Testimony 5

We listen to your bible studies lessons in our class in Montana. You actually were the main reason I decided to get a laptop, so I can go to your site and listen, read, learn, and print the class notes. I am so grateful to learn the correct view of God and his character. Now, to just have others have an interest in knowing, so I can share it with them. Good thoughts your way.

R. N., MT, USA

Testimony 44

We were given a gift of the DVD set, "God and Your Brain," and we just finished watching it. The truths in this are so powerful and truly an answer to a prayer. We're seeing hope where once we thought God wasn't answering our prayers to be free of certain mindsets. He answered with these DVDs and we are hungry for more. Thank you!

Daniel T., Easley, SC, USA

Testimony 31

It was very touching to hear the testimony of your class share how viewing God's true character has changed their lives. My feelings are the same – there is so much freedom in knowing that God LOVES me – regardless of my... just, REGARDLESS! I'm still blown away by the true gospel, the fact that God is not ready to strike us when we fail. He is not arbitrary. He simply loves us and warns of the natural consequences because He can't stand to see us suffer. I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GOD!!!

Ceil V., UT, USA

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 34

I was introduced to Come and Reason Ministries by accident, via a passing comment made in a bible study class we were visiting. I checked this website out and my life was changed. The understanding of the truth of God's character, and how we apply it, is so right. The tricky part is consistently applying which "lens" to look through. As I began to understand, I started sharing the basics of this understanding with a discussion group I was leading and, suddenly, a lot of things started to make sense that never used to. At the same time, I enjoyed an amazing opportunity. I was able to conduct a full bible study at WORK! What an amazing experience! It is such a joy to share the truth about God and to share how it all fits in the war between God and Satan. So many people benefit when we have a correct understanding about how God works and who He really is! Thank you for this transformational understanding. Keep up the good work! God Bless you!

Tony P., CA, USA

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.
