Podcasts about Amazed

Send us a textJohn Harris' excellent book Maybe I'm Amazed has been one of my non-fiction top reads this year. It was a huge pleasure to welcome James Booth to the podcast to discuss it, and share some of our experiences.  We are both GPs, we are both parents of autistic young people and we both found John's book relatable, funny, warm, moving and necessary.If you want to know more about the book, here's what the publisher's say:"In this extraordinary memoir, a father tells the story of how music has opened up the world to his son, one song at a time. Obsessed with music since he was a child, John Harris had no idea that he was in fact preparing himself for the greatest challenge of his life. But so it transpired. When his son James was born, and three years later diagnosed with autism, music became a source of precious connection and endless wonder for both of them.Maybe I'm Amazed describes how the music of The Beatles, Kraftwerk, Funkadelic, The Velvet Underground, Amy Winehouse and many more were soon woven into the fabric of James's life, becoming an essential part of who he is. It takes us through the struggles of raising an autistic child in a prejudiced world, and uncovers a hidden history of neurodivergence and creativity that casts new light on why notes, chords and lyrics speak so powerfully to the human mind.Anyone who has fallen in love with a band or heard their life reflected back to them by a song will recognise themselves in the story of this father and his son. And in considering the intense and transcendent way James absorbs and connects with music, it has lessons in listening and living for us all."

Acts 2:1-24When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren't all these who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” Amazed and perplexed, they asked one another, “What does this mean?”Some, however, made fun of them and said, “They have had too much wine.”Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning! No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. I will show wonders in the heavens aboveand signs on the earth below,blood and fire and billows of smoke.The sun will be turned to darknessand the moon to bloodbefore the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. And everyone who callson the name of the Lord will be saved.'“Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know. This man was handed over to you by God's deliberate plan and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross. But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.

After going through 3 trials by the Jews, a short trial before Pilate and then before Herod, Jesus is brought back to Pilate the Governor of Judea. What takes place here is a detailed dialogue between these two men. One had been given the job to rule over Judea and to bring law and order and stop any uprisings, and the other is accused of being a leader of a sedition and one who opposed Rome. In the end Pilate stood Amazed in the Presence of Jesus the Nazarene! To watch today's video, just click on this link!

Amazed in the Presence

The Everyday Bible Study | September 14 | The Disciples Were Amazed

It is a thrill to welcome Ben “The Bane” Davis as a guest on this special The Challenge edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast!  Ben is an extreme sports broadcaster who provides play-by-play for UFC Fight Pass, DAZN, and Misfits Boxing.  Recently, he made his Reality TV debut on The Challenge 41: Vets vs. New Threats.  Ben began his Challenge journey by joining his fellow New Threats, such as Ayoleka “Leka” Sodade, Cedric Hodges, Dee Valladares, Gabe Wai, Sydney Segal, and Yeremi Hykel, and legendary veterans such as Aneesa Ferreira, Cara Maria Sorbello, CT Tamburello, Derrick Kosinski, Olivia Kaiser, and Turabi “Turbo” Camkiran by climbing a Chilean mountain to get to the house.  For the first few episodes of the season, the New Threats partnered up with veterans, but after each elimination, they had to change partners. He played “Mud Ball Madness” with four-time finalist Nany Gonzalez, “Side by Side” by Challenge All-Stars finalist Nia Moore, and “Water Tower” with two-time champion Cara Maria Sorbello.  However, Ben's most significant moment in the game was when he teamed up with The Challenge USA finalist and iconic Survivor alum Michaela Bradshaw on the “Amazed” daily challenge, and THEY WON! Under their watch, new threat Gabe Wai sent home show icon and seven-time champion Jonathan Potassium…I mean Johnny Bananas.    Sadly, Ben's luck took a turn for the worse when he teamed up with Olivia. The partnership seemed promising on paper, but when they faced the “Dirtballer” daily challenge, they finished near the back of the pack. With her UK alliance, Olivia plotted to sacrifice Ben and become the Hangnail to save her ally, Derek Chavez, who was up for elimination. After two intense vote-offs, host TJ Lavin flipped a coin, and Ben was sent into the Arena, where Chavez eliminated him in a Hall Brawl inspired by the film HIM.   On this special edition of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Ben “The Bane” Davis spoke about being cast on the long-running MTV reality competition, winning with Michaela, Olivia's betrayal, speaking with Leka on his Do Not Resuscitate Podcast with Riley Osborne, and previewing his first Challenge Mania Live appearance.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jake-s-take-with-jacob-elyachar--4112003/support.

(20:02) Rosemary - My mind is either blank many times or I start thinking about things going on in my day and get discouraged. (25:41) Break 1 How can you rest in the Lords presence by blanking your mind. (32:02) Carlos - First time practicing contemplation this morning. Amazed at what he received from the Lord. Glad you're talking about this today. Terri - When I try contemplative prayer, I almost feel like it's offensive to God like not giving it all. (39:13) Break 2 Monica - Has 8 kids. Homeschooled.

Great faith can move the heart of God. In Matthew 8:5–13, we meet a Roman centurion whose trust in Christ was so remarkable that Jesus Himself marveled. He believed that just one word from the Lord was enough to heal his servant—and it was done.In this devotion, Pastor Roderick Webster unpacks the story of the centurion, explores why Jesus praised his faith, and reflects on how we too can learn to trust God's Word completely. You'll also discover the significance of Capernaum as the center of much of Jesus' ministry, and how miracle after miracle showed His authority over sickness, sin, and doubt.If you've ever wrestled with trusting God's promises, this message is for you. Be encouraged—Christ honors those who believe Him without hesitation.

Matthew 3

Thousands of people still drive to this location to be amazed by the natural beauty of this place.  It makes you wonder what the first...

The disciples of Jesus had more remarkable experiences than any other group of human beings. The sudden stilling of the storm on the Lake of Galilee was one event that particularly astonished them, but in today's 10th chapter of Mark we may have a sense of surprise at the cause behind the statement,  “And his disciples were amazed at his words.”     Jesus had just said, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God” [v.23,24].  His comment was the sequel to a situation when an earnest man ran up to him and said “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” [v.17] Jesus says, “You know the commandments and spells out most of them, and he responds, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth” [v.20] “And Jesus, looking at him, loved him.”But the love of Jesus did not blot out a fatal flaw in the man's character, Jesus said, “You lack one thing.”  The Master who sees and knows all things told him to use his “great possessions” in helping the poor.     “Sell all that you have” he was told – but that was not the end of Christ's words; but the man's thinking had collapsed over that request.The climax was a wonderful invitation, “come follow me… you will have treasure in heaven…” (v,21)  But his mind could not jump the hurdle of his trust in wealth and “he went away sorrowful.”  It was this event which caused Jesus to comment to his disciples about wealth and the great difficulties their possession cause for people who possess them.  It amazed them!.This brings our minds to bear on today's readings in 1 Kings ch. 10 about Solomon's great wealth, that he “excelled all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.” [v.23]      But in the end his riches distracted him “so Solomon did not wholly follow the LORD” [ch. 11 v.6] and the lack of wisdom of his son Rehoboam led to a great loss of them.(ch.12)  Solomon became obsessed by possessions (see what he confesses in Ecclesiastes 1 & 2).And us?  Our world is full of things to distract us, many of us – from Jesus' perspective are ‘wealthy' compared to previous generations.  Jesus says to us, “Come follow me”   If we have said, or decide to say, “Yes Lord” – let us do so – making sure there are no earthly possessions which are distracting us. Those who “follow me”, says Jesus “receive a hundredfold now in this lime … and in the age to come, eternal life.” [v.30].     This was the Apostle Paul's experience, he expresses his position very succinctly, “as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing, as poor, yet making many rich, as having nothing, yet possessing everything.” [2 Cor.6 v.10]

During episode 2 of season 4 of the Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kristen Gutierrez, MSN, RN, CNL, CNRN, SCRN - a Nurse Career Coach who specializes in helping Nurse discover their strengths, passion, and purpose so they can find jobs that they love and that they can THRIVE within!

The sermon explored the enduring legacy of Charles Hutchinson Gabriel, a largely self-taught musician considered the father of gospel music, highlighting his impact on American Christianity and the creation of beloved hymns like "I Stand Amazed." Examining Gabriel's life and work, the message emphasized the importance of understanding the theological depth behind musical expression, connecting his compositions to broader themes of exile, redemption, and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy, ultimately celebrating the marvelous and wonderful saving grace of Jesus Christ and the joy of expressing devotion through music.

After surviving a harrowing shipwreck, the apostle Paul found himself on the shores of an unfamiliar island. Cold and weary, he gathered wood to build a fire, hoping to bring warmth to himself and the others who had endured the storm. As the flames rose, a venomous snake, driven out by the heat, latched onto Paul's hand. The islanders watched in horror. Convinced this was divine justice, they whispered among themselves, “He must be a murderer. Though he escaped the sea, fate will not let him live.” But Paul, calm and unwavering, simply shook the creature off into the fire. He suffered no harm. Amazed, the villagers changed their minds. No longer did they see him as cursed—they began to believe he was someone extraordinary, perhaps even divine.

It was another win and another clean sheet for the Town when they went to London Road and beat Peterborough United 2-0 on Saturday afternoon. Kev is joined, as ever, by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to look back on a game of two halves as the Town huffed and puffed in the first half before blowing the Posh house down in the second period. The boys reflect on the big moments in the contest and the key performers in it and assess just where the Hatters are in terms of their rebuild and quality of performance and improvements in it from the first game to the second. The podcast ends with a brief look ahead to the midweek League cup-tie at Coventry City, coupled with score predictions.

Crowds came to Jesus with broken bodies and deeper wounds—and He welcomed them all. He didn't just heal what was hurting; He revived hope. If you're longing for healing—physical, emotional, or spiritual—this encounter reminds us that Jesus still sees, still cares, and still heals.

Knowing God changes my life. “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17, NIV).

When the Bottom Falls Out in Your Life, Ask God to Get Involved Through Prayer AND Thanks – You will Be Amazed! MESSAGE SUMMARY: Sometimes the bottom falls out in your life, and you wonder where God is in all your stuff. Well, the challenge to you is to “Thank God” by turning your eyes away from all your life's “stuff” and turning your eyes to God and thanking Him! We have no better teacher, of the need to address God with our thanks, than when, in Luke11:2, Jesus responded to His Disciples' request to teach them to pray: “And he said to them, ‘When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come.'". By taking your situation to God in prayer AND thanks, you will be amazed at what will happen to your situation which, before you asked God through prayer AND thanks, seemed insurmountable. What do you usually do? You worry and fret – you focus on the negative and give the adverse situation so much power, in your life, rather than focusing on God and giving Him thanks. In Mathew 6:34, Jesus tells you not to be anxious about your life situations: “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.". Ask God to get involved in your life through prayer and thanks – you will be amazed.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, may your will, not my will, be done in my life. You know how easy it is to call myself a Christian but then become busy, forgetting about your will and desires. Forgive me for this sin. Help me listen to you, and grant me the courage to faithfully surrender to you. In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 25). Zondervan.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his exploration of generosity, focusing on Day 96 from Orchos Tzaddikim (page 567, Treasure for Life edition). He emphasizes that generosity is a habit, a muscle strengthened through consistent giving, regardless of one's financial means. Citing the Rambam, he explains that giving small amounts frequently, like a dollar a million times, builds this habit more effectively than a single large donation. Rabbi Wolbe shares personal anecdotes, such as a man who always donates to the synagogue's charity box despite limited means, and his own efforts to give eagerly during the Torch campaign, highlighting the importance of giving with joy and humanity, not reluctance or kvetching, to instill a culture of generosity in future generations.Rabbi Wolbe stresses the highest form of charity: giving anonymously, where neither the giver nor the recipient knows the other's identity, as exemplified by organizations like Tomche Shabbos, which discreetly supports families in need. He recounts stories, including one where he fulfilled a friend's request to feed a hungry person in Israel, underscoring the privilege of giving with kindness. Quoting scriptures and sages, he warns against giving with a sour expression or avoiding charity, equating such avoidance to idolatry, as it prioritizes money over God's will. The episode concludes with a call to treat the poor with love, as they may be God testing one's generosity, with rewards proportional to the kindness shown.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 8, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

I'm your host, Dennis Jernigan, and I am so grateful you have joined me for this week's podcast. I'll try to get right to the heart of the matter today. The story behind this song is amazing to me. You'll find out why shortly.  We live in a day and age when amazing things are taking place on a daily basis. Everyday citizens, if they have the time and money, can literally fly into outer space. A person's identity, their image, and their voice and mannerisms can be manipulated in such a way as to make them appear to say and do things they would never do. Even though it gives me chills, this ability of AI, called deep fake, is kind of amazing. And speaking of AI, entire books are being written using artificial intelligence and new uses for AI are seemingly popping up every single day. And I think it is amazing that we live in a world where everyone is connected via the internet and smartphones to such a degree that we can talk with and see anyone we would like to communicate with instantly. The world is indeed amazing. The word ‘amazing' literally means ‘causing great surprise or wonder; astonishing; startlingly impressive.' That is a good thing to experience, yet even good things can be viewed through the filter of the lies of the enemy. Here's an example of what I mean taken from my now life experiences: For far too many years I allowed the lies of the enemy to define me and dictate to me what was amazing. I could see the way others treated me as amazing in a very perverted way. What I mean by that is this: I thought that someone mocking me or physically harming me meant that at least someone was acknowledging me, even if they were insulting me and belittling me. I longed to be known and to know others and that expectation of being put down by others at least made me feel acknowledged. That, my friends, is the depth of depravity my mind had fallen to which is, well, astonishingly sad. That all changed the day I was overwhelmed with the Truth that Jesus Christ had died for me. I was instantly set free from my past but had to walk out the wonderful but difficult journey toward wholeness. In fact, I'm still on that journey. I invite you to join me for today's brief leg of that adventure as I share the story behind my song, “Amazed”. Way back in 2010, I embarked on an adventure that lasted 40 days but continues to affect my life to this day. From May 3 through June 11 I went on a 40 day fast. I needed to reboot my system because I had just gone through a series of traumatic events that left me gutted. The Lord called me to a fast and led me to meditate daily on Psalm 40 and Isaiah 40. He spoke to my heart and told me He would give me a song each day of the fast and that I was to record it that same day. Since then, I put together 4 ten song volumes where you can find all 40 songs. The first ten songs are on the collection called Forty Days and Forty Nights - Songs of Contemplation and Intimacy Vol. 1. This week's episode is the story behind the song “Amazed” which came to me on May 8, 2010 which was day 5 of that fast. When the Lord sent me on this fasting journey, He led me to focus and meditate on Psalm 40 and Isaiah 40 each day. He led me to write a song each day and then record it that very same day. What you are hearing is the original version of each song on the day I actually wrote it. On day 5, He led me to meditate specifically on Psalm 40:3a which says, “He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God…” As I began to ponder on what this part of the verse meant to me, I felt led to begin just simply praising God for Who He is. It became very apparent that I was meant to live every area of my life as a conduit of praise to Him. In that moment, I was instantly filled with a sense of wonder and a  very keen awareness that the God of the universe, my Creator, was in the room with me in a very tangible way…and that was amazing! As I began to praise God, I truly was astonished at his presence with me. In that same moment, although I didn't literally see him, I felt the weight of his presence upon my soul. What I was experiencing was the very glory of God in my heart and mind. And that was truly amazing. As I set my mind free to focus on the presence of God there with me, I felt completely surprised at the depth of love He has for me. I stood back in wonder as I thought about the depth of my depravity as opposed to His depth of mercy toward me. I deserved death and hell, but He had mercy on me as demonstrated in Romans 5:8 in the NIV which says, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” I a so amazed at the mercy of God. I just am… Even more astonishingly impressive and astonishing was the way He led me to repentance - and continues to do so. He did not belittle me or mock me or reject me as I had experienced as a boy and as a young man. It was His great kindness that led me to repent of my stinkin' thinkin'…and most impressive and astonishing of all? The realization that He has been lovingly pursing me my entire life; That I was the joy set before Him that drove Him to willingly lay down His life on the cross; That His love could reach as far as I could fall, yet that same love would not leave me in the rock bottom depravity my mind had gotten to. If I let my mind go to think about the nature and character of God, I think about things he has created; the beauty of nature; the precision of the universe; the resurrection power of Jesus Christ and it's effect on my life; the fact that when I think about Jesus and fix my eyes on him that I find myself completely transfixed with a childlike wonder at just how amazing our God is…and I cannot help but praise Him. SONG In Luke 9:37-43 in the NIV, we find Jesus coming down from the mountain after His transfiguration. Here's what is says:  37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him. 38 A man in the crowd called out, "Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child. 39 A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely ever leaves him and is destroying him. 40 I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they could not." 41 "You unbelieving and perverse generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your son here." 42 Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the impure spirit, healed the boy and gave him back to his father. 43 And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. The recording of this podcast took place some 15 years after that initial 40 day fast and I still continue to find God's grace…His restorative grace…Completely and utterly amazing as I did all those in years ago. And it is my belief that we are living in a very amazing time in history, but that this amazing time in history is far overshadowed by the astonishing, incredible, massive and amazing love of Jesus Christ surrounding us at all times, through any circumstances. Let's live our lives like we believe that. We really do have an amazing God! Thank you for tuning in to The Dennis Jernigan Podcast!
