The Grace Corner

The King-Priest’s Table

You don't have to go to the Gospels to find the Easter story. In Episode 4, Carlo and Riza take us back to Genesis 14, where a king-priest named Melchizedek meets Abraham fresh off a battle, and reveal four elements in that encounter that are a picture of everything Jesus secured for us: bread for healing, wine for forgiveness, oil for anointing, and the tithe — which in Hebrew literally means to be rich, to enrich, and to gain riches. This episode digs into Isaiah 53, Hebrews 7, Romans 3, and 1 Corinthians 11 to show that the finished work of Jesus covers your physical health, your guilt, your calling, and your earthly provision. Carlo also tackles a passage on communion that's been used to disqualify believers from the table — and reframes it entirely through grace. ______ The Grace Corner is a podcast about grace, the finished work of Jesus, and the power of the Holy Spirit — hosted by Carlo and Riza, a mother and son duo from the Bay Area, California. ➡️ Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thegracecornerofficial [https://www.youtube.com/@thegracecornerofficial] ➡️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-grace-corner/id1868252729 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-grace-corner/id1868252729 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-grace-corner/id1868252729] ➡️ Subscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5AqD423bC9DyqKEENu8Oal?si=z-LKeoLJTGaONYwVWZszSw [https://open.spotify.com/show/5AqD423bC9DyqKEENu8Oal?si=z-LKeoLJTGaONYwVWZszSw] Connect with us on social!

The Spirit of Faith Speaks

Words carry weight — more than most of us realize. In Episode 3, Carlo and Riza dig into one of the most practical and most overlooked aspects of walking in grace: the power of speaking what you believe. Not positive thinking. Not manifesting. Something deeper, something biblical, something that flows directly out of who you already are in Jesus. They walk through what hope actually means in the New Testament, why faith and hope are inseparable, and why the righteousness of faith speaks — and what happens when it doesn't. Carlo also shares a personal testimony about a season of bondage he couldn't break out of no matter how hard he tried and the one declaration that changed everything. If you've been striving, declaring, believing, and still feel stuck, this one's for you.

The Forgotten Baptism

Discover the baptism that changed everything for us — and why the enemy doesn't want you to know about it. In this episode, we're diving into the second foundation of our ministry: being filled with the Holy Spirit. We unpack the difference between receiving the Holy Spirit at salvation and being filled with the Holy Spirit, why speaking in tongues is the biblical evidence, and how this forgotten baptism gives believers the power to truly reign in life. If you've been serving for years but feel burnt out, anxious, or like something's missing… this message is for you. We share our personal testimonies, walk through Scripture showing how the disciples were transformed from panicking in the storm to calming the storm, and explain why Abraham's promise includes YOU.This episode includes prayers for salvation and for being filled with the Holy Spirit. We're believing for signs, wonders, and miracles in Jesus' name!

The Fatherless and the Widow

In the first episode, Riza and Carlo share the story behind the podcast: how the loss of a beloved father and husband became the catalyst for discovering radical grace. From burning out in ministry to shutting down spiritually, this is the testimony of how grief led to breakthrough. Carlo opens up about his journey through anger and healing, while Riza shares what God taught her about listening instead of fixing. If you're tired, burnt out, or carrying religious baggage — come rest. There’s a spot on the couch for you. Topics: Navigating loss, finding God in grief, what it means to be established in righteousness, and an invitation to receive the gift of salvation. Romans 5:20 - "Where sin increased, there was more than enough of God's grace to triumph all the more."

The Grace Corner | Official Teaser

What if grace isn’t something you work toward, but the foundation you’re already standing on? For anyone who’s exhausted from trying to measure up — the one who’s tired of the performance treadmill, carrying the weight of thinking they’re not doing enough, praying enough, serving enough, wondering if they’ll ever be “enough” for God — here’s the truth: you already are. When they lost Jim, Riza’s husband and Carlo’s dad, grief stripped away everything but what was real. And in that place, the Holy Spirit revealed something that changed everything: they were already righteous through Jesus, not because of what they did or didn’t do, but because of the finished work of the Cross. The Grace Corner is about discovering what it means to be established in the righteousness of Jesus and to let the Holy Spirit lead you from striving into receiving — so you can experience the healing, wholeness, and abundance that comes from resting in what Christ has already done.
