On 17 June 2015, white supremacist Dylann Roof attended a bible group at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, in the United States. As it was ending, the 21-year-old started shooting and killed nine people.Polly Sheppard was one of the survivors. She called 911 whilst hiding from Roof. The shootings at the historic African-American church shocked a nation already too used to gun violence. President Barack Obama delivered the eulogy at one of the victim's funerals and spontaneously started singing Amazing Grace.

Thursday with Tabitha Introduction by Tabitha Smith I met Jesus when I was 11-years-old. God had blessed me with a believing family and I sung in church choirs from the time I could read. But I didn't have a personal relationship with Jesus until a certain day in 1990. I'd gone to a violin exam, which was being held in a local church. Waiting nervously for my turn to perform for the examiners, I picked up some leaflets that were sitting on a table in the church foyer. I read one of these leaflets on my own later that day. The message of Jesus dying and rising again for the sins of all people was not brand new to me, as I'd heard it many times before, but at that moment, it was like I heard it and understood it for the first time. I cried my 11-year-old eyes out and then asked my mum if I could get my own Bible. Of course, she agreed! I've always identified very strongly with the words in Amazing Grace, “I once was lost but now I'm found, was blind but now I see”, because that's exactly what it felt like. I made the decision to follow Jesus from that day onwards. Over the last couple of decades God has been teaching me from the Bible with the help of the Holy Spirit and many great human teachers. It's gradually become clear to me that my primary spiritual gift is teaching. I feel very privileged to be able to share in the ministry of Partakers. Over the next few months I'm going to be taking a tour through the books of the minor prophets. I reckon that if you lined up the Bibles of a sample of believers (myself included!) and looked at the pages that looked least worn and thumbed you would find that the minor prophets account for a substantial proportion of the most pristine pages! Even those prophets that we feel more familiar with, like Jonah, have often only featured in our Christian lives in the form of Sunday school stories. Well, it's time to do something about that! The books of the minor prophets are full of incredible truths which will help us to understand the character and heart of God. If you've ever felt intimidated or confused by these particular books in the Bible then I hope you will join me as I give an overview of each book and I really hope you'll be inspired to have a closer look at each one for yourself. The minor prophets are no less important than the major prophets (such as Isaiah and Jeremiah) but their prophetic books are shorter in length and therefore referred to as 'minor'. The books of the minor prophets were written over a long time span, ranging from the eighth century BC to the fourth or fifth century BC. We're going to look at them in roughly chronological order, which is a little different to the order they appear in the Bible. The dating of certain books, such as Obadiah and Joel, is uncertain and scholars disagree about when these books were written. So please forgive me if the order in which I tackle the books is not the precise order that you expect! It's first helpful to consider what the role of a prophet is. When we think of the word 'prophecy' we often think about predictions relating to the future. Now, the prophets did sometimes speak about things that had not yet happened, but much more often they spoke about present events and announced God's thoughts and messages to the peoples of Israel and Judah. Prophets were not generally regular teachers of God's word (that was the task of the priests). Instead prophets were raised up at particular times and for particular situations, to speak God's words to the people. They were able to see things and understand things that other people could not. As we look at the 12 books of the minor prophets we will see some common themes emerging. The prophets repeatedly spoke of the fact that God had chosen Israel for a covenant relationship; they declared the sad truth that the majority of Israel had sinned against God and turned away from him; they warned about coming judgement; and they declared the promise of renewal and restoration that would follow judgement, both in the immediate future and at the end of history. As we study each book we need to first look at what book meant to the people who first heard the message. When we have understood this we can then consider how each book speaks to us today. Our first study will begin next Thursday in the book of Jonah. I hope you'll join me then! Tabitha Tap or click here to download this episode as an audio mp3 file
Send us a textAmazing GraceAmazing Grace | How Sweet The Sound Pastor Jerrid FletcherJune 8, 2025This message invites us to move beyond familiarity with the hymn and into a fresh encounter with the depth, power, and beauty of God's grace. With vivid storytelling, generational faith, and a compelling walk through Romans 1-3, we are reminded that grace isn't just a lyric or doctrine - it's the rescue mission of heaven for every soul who has fallen short. And according to Romans 3:23-24, that is all of us.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Where has grace met you in your own story? Think about a time in your life when you were at your lowest, weakest, or most lost—how did God's grace show up? How did that experience shift your understanding of who God is and how He loves?2. Which form of pride has threatened your ability to receive or extend grace? There are many: thinking we can earn grace, believing others don't deserve it, or trying to “pay God back.” In what ways has pride crept into your relationship with God or others? What would it look like to surrender that pride and rest in grace instead?3. Can you recognize grace in your everyday moments? Grace isn't just something we receive at salvation—it follows us into kitchens, boardrooms, text messages, and traffic jams. What everyday graces might you be overlooking right now? How could growing in gratitude help you become more aware of it?4. Forgiveness is one of the hardest expressions of grace—but also one of the most Christ-like. Is there someone you've withheld grace from because you believed they didn't deserve it? How might your extension of grace reflect the grace God has extended to you?5. What does Romans 3:23–24 reveal about our identity and our worth? This verse declares both the truth of our brokenness and the beauty of our justification. How does knowing you've been "justified freely" change how you view yourself? Does it impact how you approach others, worship, or even failure?
Pastor Steve Vickery continues a verse by verse study of the book of 1 Timothy.

It's a 3 stringer in DG and in a style that dates to the 18th cent. The songs are Un Canadien Errant, the wandering Canadian, which was written in 1842 as a lament for rebels exiled from Canada after the failed Lower Canada Rebellion, 1837-8. The 2nd is A La Claire Fontaine, by the clear Spring, which dates back to 1604 and was originally a song of lost love but also become a resistance song after the British takeover following the F&I War. I wanted to learn some French Canadian song for French reenactors at vous and the Battle of PDC Wi. since a unit portraying the one that fought in that siege would come from Canada to participate in the event as it neared the 250th anniversary of the battle. From Ryan Kirk: Mary Scott Hey Jeremy here's a quick run at Oswald's variations on Mary Scott, a tune I learned from your podcast! I [am playing] an Aulos plastic [flute], copy of a 18th century Grenser. Very nice Instrument for the price. Thought about a wood one but humidity control in our old house is not great. From Dave Rowlands: This is 'La Bernardina' by Josquin des Pres (1450-1521). Not known as a composer for bagpipes, but the leading composer of his time. I have chosen this because a) it is a new find for me, b) because if pipers had access to this music and good instruments they would have played it, and c) because we should not be hidebound to 'tradition', just because it does not come from a bagpiping tradition, does not mean we cant play it, and i cite Amazing Grace as just one case. This is played by Three Swayne D pipes, and one Swayne G pipe. I hope you like it and include it. Best wishes, Dave R From Charlie Rutan: Tu Scendi Dalle Stelle is the traditional Italian Christmas carol played by zampognari. Originally called 'Quanno Nascente Ninno', it was written down in 1754 by St Alphonsus Ligouri, with text in the Neapolitan language: and became so popular that it was later translated into Italian and became 'TU SCENDI DALLE STELLE', undergoing several small changes in its melody during that process. The melody probably existed in various forms for several centuries prior to its 1754 transcription, and is still a basis for many improvised PASTORELLES by zampognari today. I'm playing both Ciaramella ( the Italian folk oboe) and Sei Palmi Zampogna on this track. 'Sei palmi' refers to the length of the instrument's longest chanter, measured by the outsretched palm of the pipe maker's hand, much like the 'cubit' of the ancient world. Zampongne have existed in this form since at least the early 1300's; where we have evidence of the instrument being played in frescoes dated to that time. The zampogna is endemic to southern Italy, exists in about 20 different iterations in several sizes, and is a thriving bagpipe tradition to this day.

John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. 11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Transforming Lives Bible Radio ShowHost: Bishop Dr. Virginia Singleton (Dr. V)Air Date: Tuesday, June 3, 2025Time: 8:00 PM ESTBroadcast Platform: Positive Power XXI Christian Media | Jerry Royce Live WorldwideEpisode Title: "God's Amazing Grace"Overview:In this spirit-filled episode, Bishop Dr. Virginia Singleton, Senior Pastor of the Divine Church of Deliverance in Florence, South Carolina, leads an in-depth teaching and reflection on the power, purpose, and presence of God's excellent Grace. Drawing on foundational scripture from 1 Corinthians 15:10 and John 1:17, Dr. V guides listeners through the theological, spiritual, and personal implications of living a life entirely dependent on Grace.Scripture Focus:1 Corinthians 15:10 (KJV)"But by the grace of God, I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain..."John 1:17 (KJV)"For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ."Key Teaching Points:What is Grace?Grace is God's unmerited favor — not earned by works but freely given.It is the foundation of salvation, sanctification, justification, and reconciliation through Jesus Christ.Grace in Paul's Life (1 Corinthians 15:10):Paul emphasizes that all he accomplished was through God's Grace — not self-effort.Grace empowered him to labor and persevere beyond human strength.Grace vs. The Law (John 1:17):The Law reveals sin; Grace delivers from it.Jesus fulfilled what the Law could not: the offering of redemptive Grace.Three Dimensions of Grace:Saving Grace: Ephesians 2:8 – We are saved by grace through faith.Sustaining Grace: 2 Corinthians 12:9 – God's strength is made perfect in our weakness.Special/Spiritual Grace: Ephesians 4:7, 11–12 – Grace is distributed as a spiritual gift for the edification of the body of Christ.Gifts by Grace (1 Corinthians 12:8–10):Every spiritual gift is distributed by the Holy Spirit.Gifts such as wisdom, healing, prophecy, and discernment are evidence of God's Grace, not man's merit.Warning Against Abusing Grace (Hebrews 10:29):Rejecting Christ or returning to sinful ways after accepting salvation dishonors the Spirit of Grace.True transformation involves repentance and humility.God Gives More Grace (James 4:6):Despite failures or rebellion, God extends more Grace to the humble.Pride is resisted, but humility attracts divine favor.Ultimate Expression of Grace (John 3:16–17):Jesus is the apex of God's amazing Grace — sent not to condemn but to save.His sacrifice on the cross is the ultimate gift of Grace.Memorable Quotes:"It was Grace who was arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane. It was Grace who was nailed to the cross. It was Grace that rose again — and that Grace is Jesus Christ." – Dr. V."You can't earn it, you can't buy it — grace is a gift that only God can give.""We all came through by the skin of our teeth, only because of God's amazing grace."Call to Action:Reflect: Are you living in the fullness of God's excellent Grace or trying to earn His approval through your own strength?Respond: If you've wandered or rejected God's gift, know that Grace is still extended — come back and be restored.Recommit: Spend time in prayer, study the Word, and let Grace guide your walk with Christ.Special Thanks:Host: Jerry Royce Live & Positive Power XXI MediaSupporters: The Divine Church of Deliverance family, loyal listeners worldwide, and Dr. V's husband for his steadfast support.Stay Connected:
Grace is the totally unmerited, unearned, unwarranted favor of God. Simply put, it is the forgiveness based upon the love of God to us. We cannot earn it.

Wisdom For The Weary #Nightlight #RTTBROS Wisdom For The Weary #Nightlight #RTTBROS Above All Else: The Focus That Changed Wilberforce If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in gloryWilliam Wilberforce stood at the window of his London home, staring across the Thames with weary eyes. For twenty years, he had fought to abolish the slave trade in the British Empire, and for twenty years, he had failed. Stacks of parliamentary papers cluttered his desk, and letters from both supporters and fierce opponents filled his drawers. His health was deteriorating, and doubts clouded his mind.Throughout his life, Wilberforce was deeply influenced by Scripture broadly. His 1797 book "A Practical View of Christianity" revealed his theological foundations, while his journal entries and letters demonstrated how biblical principles regarding human dignity and justice guided his political career. He was especially moved by passages about loving one's neighbor, caring for the oppressed, and the equality of all people before God.As a young, ambitious politician with wealth and social connections, he had experienced a profound spiritual conversion at age 25. His old friend, former slave-ship captain John Newton, now a minister and author of "Amazing Grace", had counseled him not to abandon politics but to use his position for God's purposes.Though he never specifically cited it, the powerful truth in Colossians 3 perfectly summarizes Wilberforce's transformed focus in life. While his peers pursued political power, wealth, and status, he set his mind on higher things, the dignity of every human being created in God's image. This heavenly focus made him willing to endure earthly scorn.Year after year, he introduced anti-slavery bills. Year after year, they were defeated. His political opponents mocked him as a religious fanatic. Business interests slandered him as an economic saboteur. Even some friends suggested he choose a more achievable cause."Perhaps I should focus elsewhere," Wilberforce confided to his journal one night. "Twenty years of failure wears on a man's soul."Many times when he opened his Bible. Those words renewed his resolve. His focus wasn't meant to be on immediate results but on faithfulness to his calling. He wasn't working primarily for earthly approval but for heavenly purposes.With refreshed determination, Wilberforce continued the fight. His heavenly focus gave him earthly perseverance. In 1807, the Slave Trade Act finally passed, abolishing the slave trade throughout the British Empire. Twenty-six years later, just three days before his death in 1833, he received news that slavery itself would be abolished across the British colonies.Wilberforce's life embodies the wisdom of Paul's words in Colossians. By setting his mind on things above, he changed things on earth. By living as though his true life was hidden with Christ, he found courage to face opposition. By focusing on heavenly glory rather than earthly acclaim, he left a legacy that transformed millions of lives.Like Wilberforce, we face choices daily about where to set our minds. When we focus on things above, we gain the perspective and perseverance to fulfill our calling below.Prayer: Lord, like Wilberforce, help me fix my focus on heavenly values rather than earthly validation. Remind me that my true identity is hidden with Christ, giving me courage to pursue Your purposes even when progress seems slow. May my heavenly focus produce earthly faithfulness. Amen.#WilberforceWisdom #PerseverantFocus #HeavenlyPerspectiveBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Join us in today's sermon podcast as we explore the profound teachings of the Apostle Paul on grace, inspired by Ephesians 2:1-10. Discover how God's grace, rich in mercy and incomparable in kindness, reaches out to us, transforming lives and offering salvation through faith as a gift. Reflect on the captivating story of John Newton, the former slave ship captain turned pastor, whose life was radically changed by God's amazing grace, leading to the creation of the beloved hymn, 'Amazing Grace.' In this episode, we delve into the four facets of God's grace: seeking, saving, sanctifying, and sustaining. Learn how God's grace precedes our acceptance, guides us into the fullness of salvation, transforms our inner nature, and maintains our spiritual journey. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural insights, be encouraged to embrace the abundant life offered by God's grace and allow it to shape your path forward. Join us in reflecting on the generous and enduring love of our Savior, who seeks us endlessly and offers the gift of grace to every soul. With Pastor Mike Curry PEOPLE OF GRACE The Reach of Grace Ephesians 2:8-10 Introduction: Amazing Grace Seeking Grace (Luke 19:10) God's prevenient grace, goes before us, reaches out to us in numerous ways, and draws us to the heart of God. God reaching out to bring his children back to himself (Luke 15:1-31). The lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son. Saving Grace (Rom. 6:23) We cannot save ourselves; only God can save us by his grace (Romans 2:8-10). Salvation is being “born again” (John 3). Christ made our salvation possible (Rom. 1:17-18). III. Sanctifying Grace (1 Thess. 5:23-24) God's sanctifying grace deals with the inward nature that compels us to demand our own way, which often leads to sin. God's sanctifying grace works at a moment in time as he renews our hearts by faith and across a lifetime of growth in grace as he transforms us into the image of his Son, Jesus Christ (Rom. 8:29-30). Sustaining Grace (Jude vv. 24-25) We cannot sanctify ourselves through our own efforts, we must rely on the power of the Holy Spirit's presence in our lives (Acts 1:8). God transforms believers into the image of his Son as we grow in his grace (Gal. 4:19). Sustaining grace is the power of God that keeps us from falling and causes us to stand blameless before him on the final day. We can fall from grace, but the sustaining grace of God makes it possible not to have to. Conclusion: Have you experienced the Amazing Grace of God?

Psalm 84:1-2To the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.How lovely is Your tabernacle,O LORD of hosts!My soul longs, yes, even faintsFor the courts of the LORD;My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.Though Psalm 84 has long been a favorite of mine, this is the first time I ever looked into who the (human) authors were — the “sons of Korah.” Now that I know more about them, this Psalm is all the sweeter. What a beautiful shift of heart and reputation they had. I'll tell you all about it in this episode. Second chances and redemption stories reminded me of how "Amazing Grace" is all the sweeter when you know the story of John Newton. All these thoughts brought to mind the song, "Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace)," written by Joel Houston and Jonas Myrin, which I will play for you at the end.

On Mother's Day, Dr. Scott McKee launches the new Firm Foundations series with a message centered on grace—God's unmerited favor that meets us not in our strength, but in our weakness. Drawing from the Apostle Paul's thorn-in-the-flesh story in 2 Corinthians 12, Pastor Scott reminds us that grace isn't just a promise of heaven, but a present, sustaining power in our everyday struggles. Through personal testimony, biblical reflection, and a moving parable, we're invited to embrace our thorns as unlikely gifts that lead us deeper into God's transforming grace. Grace doesn't just change our eternity—it changes everything.

Adam's Paternity Leave continues, so we're going back to the well to pull an episode that feeds our Benbot passion. Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. After that first payment, you won't be charged again until we're dropping new content (which we'll warn everyone is coming), so if you want more of this it can be had, along with access to the fully uncut episodes from 100 to present and Movie Club episodes.Sometimes the Randomizer giveth; sometimes it taketh away. It's sort of like SVU that way. This week it gave an episode that takes us all on a wild ride from a stairwell in Chelsea to the grim realities of life in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Along the way, jealousy abounds, Benbot enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner, Adam breaks down the past 150 years of strife in the Congo, Amazing Grace and Chuck is deduced to have done some ripping from the headlines, no one wants to believe our victim—Lainie McCallum, played by Diora Baird—and a cut hand yields some unexpected outcomes. The Munchie Boys tackled “Witness” (S11E16), so hold on to your butts.Music:Divorcio Suave - "Munchy Business"Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Zak B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Christine L, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Kate K, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Roni C, and Nourhane B - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Today Emmy-winning actor Patricia Heaton joins us for a candid conversation on motherhood, career, and raising four boys. We talk about the pressure parents feel to over-schedule kids, the beauty of simplicity (just give them a cardboard box!), and how God ordered her journey through motherhood and acting. She and her husband, David Hunt, are in the business of producing movies and directed Unexpected, a film about the emotional ups and downs of infertility. Patricia believes that the best way into tough subjects is through comedy and this movie does just that. Stick around till the end where she shares her advice for helping four boys flourish -including her list of things to do as a family.

Send us a textIn this episode of Memories with a Beat, Katrina Mendez reflects on how the hymn Amazing Grace became a meaningful part of her life—from learning it in Catholic school to performing it at family memorials and auditions. She talks about her musical upbringing, her connection to her grandmother, and how music has always been a natural part of her world. The conversation offers a warm, personal look at how one song can carry so many stories over the years. Tune in now to see why this timeless hymn still resonates so deeply.
Every entrepreneur dreams of the freedom that comes with success, yet Lloyd Reeb discovered a surprising paradox - the very prosperity he worked so hard to achieve was quietly eroding his freedom and purpose. Instead of letting money become his master, he made the counter-cultural choice to design a life where wealth serves his deeper values rather than dictating his choices. His journey reveals that true entrepreneurial freedom might look radically different than what we've been conditioned to pursue. Lloyd shares the meaningful artifacts in his office that guide his decisions and keep him grounded in his purpose - from a crystal light bulb gift that reminds him of his unique contribution to a 300-year-old French Bible that represents God's unchanging wisdom to a wooden "Amazing Grace" plaque honoring William Wilberforce's 30-year commitment to ending the slave trade.Key Highlights:How carrying "long-term metrics" in his wallet for decades has helped Lloyd maintain focus on what truly mattersThe intentional decision to decouple wealth from lifestyle to break cycles of entitlementWhy complexity, comfort, and complacency are the three deadliest enemies to living a purpose-driven lifeApplying Charlie Munger's "inversion" approach to identify what would cause you to squander your lifeThe transformative practice of keeping a "Book of Days" to document God's work in and through your lifeWhy financial success creates freedom for mission rather than just lifestyle expansionPractical ways to declutter your life, reduce complexity, and create space for what matters mostQuotable Moments:"Build a successful business in the context of focusing on building a successful life.""It's an interesting question to ask: What level of lifestyle is in your family's best interest? That's different from how much can we afford.""What would I do if I wanted to squander the rest of my life? I would get my life complicated, comfortable, and let my heart become uncompassionate.""Money is a great servant, but a terrible master. We wanted to really demote money from mastery to servant."Watch the full episode on YouTube or continue to stream audio on your favorite podcast platform.
