What firm a foundation,

Ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

What does God expect from Christians who are married to unsaved spouses?

Well, that's what our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee, is discussing on Through the Bible.

I'm Steve Schwetz, welcoming you aboard the Bible bus, and we're going to begin in 1st Peter

3, verse 1.

It's a great study, one that's filled with really practical advice and then some biblical answers

that just might surprise you.

So grab your copy of God's Word and find your place, and let's hear a few letters from fellow passengers whose lives have been changed by the Word of God as they travel with us.

First one comes from a young man in Portugal.

I used to belong to a group of troublemakers, making assaults and causing disturbances

in my neighborhood, he says. Everyone was afraid of me. I was at the end of high school and was making

a mess of my life. One day I found your radio program and began to listen. Since then, I have

woken up to the things of God. Today, I'm in a church. My life is different. I have resumed my studies,

and I want to be a lawyer. Well, isn't that an incredible transformation? Praise God for second

chances. We've all been given them, haven't we? Now, here's a letter. This one's from a listener

in India. I live in a village many miles from the nearest town. I've been studying with you

in my language of Aria for the last five years. I listened to the program, along with my wife, two small children, and any guests or relatives who visit us. My oldest sister came to know the Lord first in our family by listening to you and reading some Christian literature. I was influenced by her initially, and now, having grown in the Lord, I serve in the ministry.

I have planted two churches, and I am presently working on the third.

Whatever I hear on your programs gets more easily imprinted in my mind than when I read the Bible alone.

In fact, your teachings make difficult things easy to understand.

Overall, what I digest in my mind keeps influencing me in my decision making. Wow, I can learn a lot
