Every Take 5 episode is a true story from history and Scripture about ordinary people God used to do extraordinary things. Pastor Rodney Coe — author of 5 books, devotional writer, and pastor — tells the stories warm, well-paced, and pointed at the part of your day that needs the most lifting.

You'll meet missionaries saved by angels (John Paton), a watchmaker's daughter who forgave a Nazi guard (Corrie ten Boom), a Tennessee farm boy who took a hill in the Argonne (Alvin York), a Senate chaplain who wasn't ready (Peter Marshall), a man who walked with God at 4 a.m. (George Washington Carver), and more.

  • Jonathan Edwards: The Sermon That Shook a Village
    Jul 3 2026

    A preacher with a weak voice. A bored New England town. Twenty minutes of monotone reading. And heaven came down anyway.

    On a warm Wednesday in July of 1741, Jonathan Edwards stepped into the pulpit at Enfield, Connecticut. He never looked up from his page. He read his sermon, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, in a flat monotone. Twenty minutes later, grown men were gripping the pews to keep from sliding to the floor.

    Here is what most people miss. Edwards did not rise to that morning cold. For years he had worn grooves in the floor of his study. He had fasted. He had wept over his people before he ever read them a single line. The fire in that meetinghouse was lit long before, in a quiet room, on a man's knees.

    In this five-minute Take 5 devotional, Pastor Rodney Coe walks through the story of Jonathan Edwards and the Enfield revival of July 1741, and what it tells us about the kind of prayer heaven still answers.

    Scripture: Psalm 85:6 | Acts 1:14 | Deuteronomy 32:35

  • Fanny Crosby: The Blind Woman Who Wrote 8,000 Hymns
    Jul 1 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    When Fanny Crosby was six weeks old, a traveling doctor treated her infected eyes with a hot poultice and left her blind for life. He packed up and left town, and no one ever saw him again. She would never see a sunrise or her mother's face. She would never see a single word she would one day write. And she would write more than eight thousand hymns the church is still singing today, "Blessed Assurance," "To God Be the Glory," "Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior," "Rescue the Perishing," "Safe in the Arms of Jesus." The part that takes your breath: Fanny never resented the man who took her sight. She said if she could meet him, she would thank him, because her blindness taught her to see Jesus more clearly than most people with two good eyes. She used to say that the very first face she would ever see would be the face of her Savior. A five-minute reminder that what looks like your darkness may be the room where God is writing your best song. Scripture echo: 2 Corinthians 5:7 Key figure: Fanny Crosby (1820-1915), American hymn writer, author of more than 8,000 hymns Read or listen on the blog: https://rodneycoe.com/fanny-crosby-blind-hymn-writer/ Five minutes.

  • Christmas Evans: The Mountain Where He Got His Fire Back
    Jun 29 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    A preacher rode alone through the mountains of Wales, and his heart was cold. His name was Christmas Evans. Born on Christmas Day, 1766, into deep poverty. Orphaned at nine. At seventeen he still could not read a single word. After he met Christ, he taught himself his letters and began to preach. One night his old friends beat him in the dark and he lost an eye for the rest of his life. Then his fire grew dim. So on a lonely road between Dolgellau and Machynlleth, Evans climbed off his pony and up the mountainside, and prayed until the coldness broke. He came down a changed man, and revival followed his preaching across Wales. A five-minute reminder that when your fire has burned low, the road home runs straight uphill into honest prayer. "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you." Scripture echo: Revelation 2:4, James 4:8 Key figure: Christmas Evans (1766-1838), Welsh Baptist preacher whose covenant prayer on a Welsh mountain road sparked revival across Anglesey and Wales.
