We live in a world where we follow the convictions of our feelings. People move under the shaky foundations that seek to position humans as the center of the universe. We go through our lives without truly thinking about what we believe. Do we analyze in a meticulous way our principal values? Preferences have supplanted objective truth. In these discussions we will try to pick apart a range of dilemmas, where our main responsibility is to sit down and listen. Possibly the conclusions reached could point us to something greater than us.

    En este episodio de Sit Down and Listen (Siéntate Y Escucha) hablaremos sobre una porción de las Escrituras que comunica verdades espirituales sobre la gloriosa encarnación de Cristo, la nueva posición del creyente ante Dios. Pasando de ser un esclavo del pecado y un mero niño siguiendo sin pensar el tráfico de la tradición humana y los rudimentos de la religión falsa a un heredero e hijo de Dios. Todo esto se resume en la verdad central de un bebé que nace en un pesebre. El Dios eterno, nacido de una madre y enviado por el Padre, para reconciliar consigo al mundo. Que la Tierra Reciba a su Rey.

    Una de las últimas cosas que el Señor ordenó fue que predicáramos él evangelio. En los cuatro evangelios el Señor nos deja la “Gran Comisión” que es que prediquemos el evangelio a todos. El evangelio se trata completamente de nuestro salvador prometido. El mensaje es de redencion y completa entrega a Dios.

    In this episode of Sit Down and Listen we take a closer look at an essential aspect of salvation; regeneration, the divine miracle that the Spirit of God operates in a dead, hardened, and rebellious sinner. Salvation works to transform the sinner into a new creation, with hearts that are quick to do His will and please Him.

    There has always been a debate throughout the history of the church about God's absolute control over human affairs and history, particularly when a guilty sinner comes to faith in Jesus. But also the consistent testimony of scripture affirming the human responsibility we have in making a decision for Christ. How do these truths compliment one another? Do they contradict each other? We'll be looking a bit deeper into this issue on this episode of Sit Down and Listen.

    In this episode of Sit Down and Listen we discuss the Reformation, the religious revolution that took place in the Western church in the 16th century. The reformers rejected the authority of the pope as well as many of the principles and practices of Catholicism of that time. The essential tenets of the Reformation are that the Bible is the sole authority for all matters of faith and conduct and that salvation is by God's grace and by faith in Jesus Christ. #Reformation #churchhistory #bible

    En este episodio de Siéntate y escucha (Sit Down and Listen), nos enfrentaremos con la conversación entre Jesús y la mujer samaritana. La agua viva que Cristo ofrece no es literal en su naturaleza sino espiritual en su realidad. Es importante no sólo saber de esta agua viva sino también de quien la ofrece. Este maestro, un rabino que le declara a esta mujer que ni las montañas ni los templos determinarán quién adora verdaderamente al único Dios verdadero. Pero el indicador será un templo que no está hecho con manos humanas. Es una confrontación que descubre las falsedades de nuestra sociedad y los dioses que una humanidad caída ha creado para sí mismo. Pero el Dios que es la fuente de agua viva nos ofrece la capacidad de adorar en espíritu y en verdad.

    En el Evangelio segun San Juan nos encontramos con una mujer sedienta que se ve cerca de un pozo. Su espiritualidad estaba falta de vida, aferrandose a su parentela y las tradiciones del pasado. El que dice "dame de beber" tiene el poder sobrenatural para producir en todo aquel que pone su Fe y Confianza en El, una fuente de agua viva. Una fuente que salta para Vida Eterna.

La obra que empezamos puede que sea insignificante para los que nos ridiculizan, sirve un gran propósito para la expansión del reino de Dios.

    The book of Esther showcases a beautiful story that revolves around the life of a courageous young woman. Esther would serve as a type of Christ as she would intercede for her people and perform the most loving act that can ever be offered, put her own life on the line. But within this high value, intense drama we find the character of Mordecai and his bitter relationship with Haman, the gallows that were built for Mordecai became Haman's downfall. The King of Israel honored Mordecai, but can there be any parallel between an Old Testament story and the newness of life believers find in Christ? In this weeks episode of Sit Down And Listen we will come to the realization that just how the King honored Mordecai the sovereign Lord has decided to prepare Robes, Horses, and Crowns.

    Often referred to as the "microwave generation" in which patience is a long lost virtue, It is very easy to see that the new generations that are developing under this culture are establishing a foundation that is dominated by physical appearances, pleasure over responsibilities, and a lack of critical thinking. We are known as the generation that doesn't think twice when it comes to challenging and disrespecting authorities both at home and in our societies. For many the person of the Shepard boy that would later become King doesn't immediately connect and it shouldn't, but David, along with his mighty men, can teach this new generation some essential truths that can help us carry the burdens of these times. In this episode of Sit Down And Listen we are confronted by the actions and attitudes of men whose boldness served to build a kingdom and it is this same boldness that will empower this new generation.

    The cross is often seen as a place of darkness, pain, embarrassment and helpless suffering. But that is only one side of the panorama when it comes to death Christ suffered. In this episode of the SDAL podcast we pick up where we left off last episode after Christ is betrayed by one of his own, he is sentenced to death and now must carry out the mission for which he was sent. But within every particular event in the final hours of the passion we see a blessed irony that serve to bring the exact opposite effect. Hope, joy, victory and assurance. That very same assurance that we stand on, one provided by the irony of the cross...

The baggage we carry becomes the weight of the soul, in this episode we explore the biblical implications of guilt for the believer.

    The mind is a powerful tool in our disposal, but it without a doubt holds much more mystery than modern science has been able to uncover. Going beyond the neurological question, many thinkers of the past have tried to address the ironical question of what is it to have mind? Why do we have this thing called mind at all? What is the nature of thought, feeling, perception? We take a look at both sides of the debate and the conflict we face in our daily lives.

    When we think of death how do our minds respond to the weight? It is the great equalizer that no one will escape from but has the concept of death and its consequences changed through human history? Is there a final authority that determines death and its future? Our culture is by no means inclined to discuss the matter. Different thinkers of the past have attempted to unwrap the depth of this dilemma. Should we toss our hands in a air and ignore it? Or could the fear of death be a warning sign desperately trying to communicate the upcoming unavoidable reality?
