Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

This episode of God and Our Dogs on Boerne Radio features host Meg Greer in conversation with Stan Leach, athletic director for Boerne ISD and author of children's books. The "Pawndering" episode replays a story from John Tipton about his blind, diabetic miniature Aussie, Festus, who has adapted to his condition by memorizing his surroundings and relying on his owner's guidance. Meg and Stan reflect on the story's parallels to faith — leaning on God during hard times, the value of community and shared testimony, and encouraging one another through storms, tying in Amazing Grace and 1 Thessalonians 5:11. The conversation then shifts to Stan's children's book Athletic As A Camel and its illustrator, followed by a preview of the upcoming BISD sports and extracurricular season. 0:00 — Intro to God and Our Dogs 1:02 — Introducing guest Stan Leach 1:41 — John Tipton's story about Festus the dog 2:33 — Discovering Festus's diabetes 5:01 — Reflecting on Festus's dependence and faith parallels 5:52 — Amazing Grace, community, and testimony 8:59 — 1 Thessalonians 5:11 on encouragement 9:56 — Stan's book, Athletic As A Camel 11:35 — BISD sports season preview 12:48 — Closing thanks and sign-off Host: Meg Grier - Stories@GodAndOurDogs.com Website: www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100072683640098 God and Our Dogs airs every Saturday at 11:15am on Boerne Radio 103.9FM - www.boerneradio.com.

George Whitefield was the most prominent voice of the Great Awakening, yet he was also complicit in the system of chattel slavery. On this episode, David Wollen and Dr. Thomas Kidd honestly examine that difficult tension and consider what it teaches us about the Gospel.

What if the song we have sung a thousand times still has something new to teach us? Amazing Grace is one of the most recognized songs in history, but behind its words is a story of a man who found himself asking a question that stopped him cold: Who am I, Lord, that you have brought me this far? That question comes straight from 1 Chronicles 17, where King David sat before God in awe of a promise so generous he could barely find words for it. God had given David something he never even thought to ask for, and that same pattern of unexpected grace runs like a thread through the entire message we explore here. We look at how grace is not just a theological concept but a living, active force that saves us, sustains us every single day, and slowly transforms us from the inside out. The spiritual insight at the heart of this message is both humbling and freeing: we have nothing to boast about and nothing to fear. Every one of us arrives at grace as a wretch, and every one of us is loved far better than we deserve. If we are willing to sit with that truth, we might find that grace sounds a lot sweeter than we remembered.

Troubled World, Untroubled Heart: Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain – John 14:1–11 In Episode 147 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane step into John 14:1–11, where Jesus speaks some of His most comforting words to His disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Jesus knows what is coming. The disciples are facing uncertainty, confusion, and fear—yet He doesn't promise them an easy road. Instead, He gives them something greater: Himself. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it means to have an untroubled heart in a troubled world, why trusting God doesn't require understanding everything He's doing, and the hope found in Jesus' declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” When the world feels uncertain, our circumstances don't have to determine the condition of our hearts. Jesus invites us to trust Him, know the Father through Him, and find peace in the promise that He is preparing the way. If your heart has felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what's ahead, John 14 is an invitation to remember who Jesus is—and why you can trust Him. What is troubling my heart right now—and what would change if I trusted Jesus with it instead of trying to control the outcome? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

The sermon explores the theme of God's providence through the biblical account of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. It highlights how divine timing brings together specific individuals to share the gospel, emphasizing that salvation is a gift of grace received through faith in Jesus Christ rather than human merit. The preacher stresses the necessity of repentance and humility, illustrating these truths with personal anecdotes and the transformative power of baptism as a public declaration of faith. Ultimately, the message encourages listeners to recognize God's active role in their lives and to respond to His call by following Him without turning back.

Babbie Mason once wanted to sing for Motown. Now an award-winning singer-songwriter, author, conference speaker, and TV host, she joins Wayne Shepherd in conversation.  (click for more…)  Website:  https://babbie.comBabbie Mason recounts growing up in Jackson, Michigan, as the daughter of a pastor, where church was the center of family life and she began playing piano and leading music at her father's church by age nine. As a young adult she was drawn toward Motown-style secular music and sang in bars and clubs, but felt persistent conviction from the Holy Spirit; a pivotal moment came in a college snack bar, where a bowl of cooling soup and a Bible verse about being "lukewarm" led her to fully surrender her life and career to Christ. She went on to record albums with Word Records and Spring Hill Music over a career now spanning 40 years. Mason also shares a memorable story from her book Each One Reach One about spontaneously singing "Amazing Grace" in a Piggly Wiggly grocery store, which led to a chain of encounters where she prayed for strangers' needs — illustrating her larger message that kindness and sensitivity to others can open doors to sharing faith. She closes by discussing mentorship, her Inner Circle worship conferences for songwriters, and her desire to fully use her God-given gifts.                                                   NEXT WEEK:  Rob ElliotSend your support for FIRST PERSON to the Far East Broadcasting Company:FEBC National Processing Center Far East Broadcasting CompanyP.O.

I also share highlights from four memorable days in Park City, Utah, with my three brothers - a rare gathering of just the four of us. Between hot air ballooning, river rafting, and long conversations filled with memories, laughter, and hopes for the future, it became a time I'll treasure for years.Then we shift to the unsettling congressional hearing targeting Dr. Anthony Fauci. It brought back memories of those frightening early days of the pandemic and how quickly a public health crisis became a political battleground. We discuss Fauci's remarkable career under Dr. Francis Collins, the honors he received from both George W. Bush and Donald Trump. Figures like Rand Paul and Adam Kinzinger have become part of a much larger story about truth, politics, and public trust.From there, we talk about the rapidly approaching midterm elections. We review Pete Buttigieg's growing national presence - and the disturbing rise of political intimidation. Finally, we end with a discussion of that remarkable Concert for Peace featuring Pope Leo, Andrea Bocelli, inspiring young voices from war-torn countries around the world, and a moving rendition of "Amazing Grace" that left both of us reflecting on what reconciliation might actually look like.Ken's Substack: The Concert of Peace - Amazing Grace, How Sweet the SoundSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

Faithful Through Betrayal: Love, Loyalty, and the New Commandment – John 13:18–38 In Episode 146 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 13:18–38, where the final hours before the cross reveal both the beauty of Christ's love and the heartbreak of human failure. Jesus foretells Judas' betrayal, predicts Peter's denial, and gives His disciples a new commandment that will forever define His followers: "Love one another as I have loved you." Together, they explore how Jesus responded to betrayal with compassion, why our identity is rooted in Christ rather than our failures, and what it truly means to love others with the same grace we've received. Even in the face of rejection and abandonment, Jesus remained faithful to His mission—and He invites us to do the same. This episode is a powerful reminder that while people may disappoint us, Jesus never will. His love is stronger than betrayal, His grace is greater than our failures, and His call to love remains at the center of the Christian life. How can I reflect the love of Jesus toward someone who has hurt me, disappointed me, or failed me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In today's episode, I talk about how the story of Karate Kid relates to guitar learning. Often, students ignore the importance of repeating good habits, but being consistent and precise when learning makes all the difference. A lot of people assume they know the fundamentals, but few have mastered them. It's key to learn these basics of guitar, as having full knowledge of them allows you to really enjoy the guitar and make progress.

08/02/26 Amazing Grace: Emasculated Without Grace - Doug Robins by City Tribe Church

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchLUNES, 03 DE AGOSTOUNIDAD EN LA DIVERSIDADPablo ruega a los efesios que conserven la unidad y el amor... Las divisiones que haya en la iglesia deshonran la religión de Cristo delante del mundo, y dan a los enemigos de la verdad ocasión de justificar su conducta. La unión de los creyentes con Cristo resultará naturalmente en la unión de los unos con los otros, el vínculo más resistente de la tierra. Somos uno con Cristo, así como Cristo es uno con el Padre. Los cristianos son los pámpanos, y solo pámpanos, en la Vid viviente... Nuestra vida debe proceder de la cepa. Únicamente como resultado de una unión personal con Cristo, de una comunión con él día tras día y hora tras hora, podemos llevar los frutos del Espíritu Santo... Nuestro crecimiento en la gracia, nuestra alegría, nuestra utilidad, todo depende de nuestra unión con Cristo y del grado de fe que tengamos en él. La palabra y el espíritu de la verdad morando en el corazón nos separarán del mundo. Los inmutables principios de la verdad y del amor vincularán los corazones y la fuerza de la unión estará de acuerdo con la medida de la gracia y de la verdad que se disfrute. La vid tiene muchos pámpanos, sin embargo, aunque todos son diferentes, no pelean entre sí. Hay unidad en la diversidad. Todos los pámpanos obtienen su alimento de la misma fuente. Esta es una ilustración de la unidad que debe existir entre los seguidores de Cristo. En los diferentes tipos de trabajo que realizan deben tener una sola Cabeza. El mismo Espíritu, de distintas maneras, obra por medio de ellos. Hay acción armoniosa, aunque los dones difieran... Dios llama a cada uno... a hacer el trabajo señalado de acuerdo con la capacidad que se le ha dado. Hay un carácter que debemos mantener, pero es el de Cristo. Si tenemos el carácter de Cristo, podemos trabajar juntos en su obra. El Cristo que esté en nosotros responderá al Cristo que esté en nuestros hermanos, y el Espíritu Santo consagrará esa unión de sentimientos y de acción que atestigua al mundo que somos hijos de Dios... Lo que el mundo necesita es ver este milagro: los corazones de los hijos de Dios ligados unos a otros por el amor cristiano (God's Amazing Grace, p. 211; parcialmente en La maravillosa gracia de Dios, 22 de julio, p. 211). 

Signs of apostasy appear as woke churches have replaced powerful hymns like "Amazing Grace" with new unsacred songs that praise LGBTQ and social justice. Plus, a network of surveillance cameras installed on utility poles across the U.S. can watch and listen to each passerby. Over 100,000 such cameras are active across America. Where will this lead, and how does it connect to the biblical end-times scenario? Josh Davis shares the details on today's edition of Headlines from the End Times.

The Towel and the Basin: The Heart of a Servant – John 13:1–17 In Episode 145 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane begin one of the most intimate and transformative sections of the Gospel of John. In John 13:1–17, Jesus—the King of kings—kneels to wash the feet of His disciples, revealing that true greatness in God's Kingdom is found in humble service. Together, they unpack the significance of this unforgettable moment, exploring what it means to love sacrificially, lead with humility, and serve others with the heart of Christ. Peter's struggle to accept Jesus' act of service also reminds us that following Jesus means learning both to receive His grace and to extend it to others. This episode is an invitation to exchange pride for humility, status for service, and self-centered living for the example Jesus modeled on the night before the cross. As followers of Christ, we're not just called to admire His example—we're called to live it. Who is Jesus inviting me to serve with humility this week, and am I willing to lay down my pride to love like He loved?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Grace is the foundation of the Christian life, yet it is easy to drift from it into busyness and performance. In Revelation 3, Jesus speaks to the church at Philadelphia about an open door that no one can close, and the greatest door God has ever opened is the door of grace. Just as John Newton, the author of Amazing Grace, was transformed from a slave trader into a pastor, grace meets us in our worst moments and makes us whole. When we stay connected to that grace, it naturally overflows into every relationship and area of life. We forgive because we have been forgiven. We love unconditionally because God has loved us unconditionally. A transformational church never gets over the grace that saved it, and it never keeps that grace to itself. God opened the door. Now let grace flow through you.

Date: July 26, 2026Speaker: Ethan Montesinos

Tara welcomes Canadian (Nova Scotia) author Corinne Hoebers to discuss her latest novel, Tethered Spirits: Wiaqtaqne'wasultijik na Kjijaqmijinaq, OC Publishing, 2025. Corinne explains how she worked with the Mi'kmaq community to ensure historical accuracy while also telling the story of her own 1753 settlers of Lunenburg ancestors. From Goodreads: "Against the violent backdrop of the French and Indian (Seven Years) War, two German siblings come to learn about and understand the Mi'kmaq. Christian, now named Bear Cub, lives with the ancient People and develops a deep bond with his chosen brother, Eagle Feather, while his new family's way of life is increasingly threatened. On the outskirts of Lunenburg, Hanna, his younger sister, befriends a Mi'kmaw Elder and questions her papa's ownership of the land they are settling. Christian immerses himself in the Mi'kmaw language and the ways of the land, prepared to defend the People alongside Eagle Feather. Christian's father and older sister, Elisabeth, refuse to accept his new way of life; nor will they recognize the humanity of their perceived enemy. Christian is caught between two diverse families and cultures- the one to which he was born and to whom he feels obligated, and the one he has grown to love and respect. Settlers and Mi'kmaq alike struggle on land that is the ancestral home to one and promised to the other, a struggle that resonates to this day." https://corinnehoebers.mywriting.network/   Recommended titles: The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett John Newton: From Disgrace to Amazing Grace by Jonathan Aitken The Shack: Where Tragedy Confronts Eternity by William Paul Young The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charlie Mackesy

Send us Fan MailJohn Newton once said, “God sometimes does His work with gentle drizzle, not storms.”  The "Amazing Grace" that Newton wrote about in his famous hymn didn't hit him like a storm. John Newton's transformation was a drizzle. Throughout his 82-year life, John Newton went from a biblically-schooled child, to a rambunctious and incorrigible teenager, to a depraved sailor; to an outcast; to a slave-trading sea captain, to a surveyor, before becoming the beloved pastor and prolific hymn writer we all know him as.  Join us as we delve into the many dangers, toils and snares that John Newton found himself in, and how the grace of God led him safely through them all. Thanks for tuning in!

Death Leads to Life: The Way of Jesus – John 12:27–50 In Episode 143 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore the closing section of John 12, where Jesus begins preparing His followers for the reality of the cross. Through His powerful teaching about the grain of wheat that must die to produce life, Jesus reveals a kingdom principle that changes everything: death leads to life. Together, they unpack what it means to surrender our own plans, ambitions, and desires so that God can produce something greater through us. As Jesus calls people out of darkness and into His light, this passage challenges us to consider where we are resisting surrender and where God may be inviting us into deeper trust. This conversation is a reminder that what feels like loss in God's hands often becomes the very place where new life begins. What is God asking me to surrender today so that He can bring greater life through it tomorrow? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

07/05/26 Amazing Grace: False Gospels - Doug Robins by City Tribe Church

A Fragrant Offering: Worship, Surrender, and the Anointing Oil – John 12:1–27 In Episode 142 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore John 12:1–27, where Mary pours out costly perfume at the feet of Jesus in one of the most beautiful acts of worship found in Scripture. While others questioned her sacrifice, Jesus honored her devotion, revealing a heart fully surrendered to Him. Together, they unpack the significance of the anointing oil, the contrast between worship and criticism, and what it means to offer Jesus our very best. As the chapter unfolds, Jesus begins preparing His followers for the cross, teaching that true life is found through surrender and sacrifice. This conversation invites listeners to consider what they are holding back from God and challenges us to move beyond convenient faith into wholehearted worship. What is Jesus inviting me to pour out at His feet as an act of worship and surrender? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Joining hosts Philionaire, Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony of Louis York, and Tamone Bacon, the Detroit-born mastermind behind Belle Collective, Love & Marriage: Huntsville, Bold & Bougie, Grown and Gospel, and a long list of other franchises pulls up to set the record straight on the "Black Andy Cohen" comparison, his deep love for music, and why his ear for talent runs in the family (his father played saxophone for The Dramatics before walking away from the road to raise ten kids).   The conversation moves fast and pulls no punches. Carlos relives the now-legendary moment when a young Keyshia Cole cussed him out on a 106 & Park red carpet while he was still a PA reading questions off a producer's clipboard. He breaks down why Keyshia, Tamar Braxton, and Cardi B set the blueprint for using reality television to launch and protect a music career, and names exactly which current artists (Normani, Chloe Bailey, Victoria Monet, Durand Bernarr) he believes should be lacing up their boots for the same play.   Then the gloves come off. Carlos walks us through the rise and stall of The Encore, his beloved BET girl-group experiment that he calls top two of his entire career, lays out the four reasons girl groups can't survive (ego, men, management, work ethic), and shares why Chloe x Halle splitting too early still bothers him. From there he flexes his Mount Rushmore of gospel singers (Kirk Franklin, Yolanda Adams, Shirley Caesar, Aretha Franklin), defends Amazing Grace as Aretha's untouchable peak, and explains why he plays gospel every morning without fail. He also weighs in on why he believes today's R&B falls in comparison to the '90s, why too many singers have never set foot in a church, and why he no longer goes to concerts (his words: lip-syncing, no choreography, no production, no Frank Gatson).   Now without further ado, hit that play button and jump into this episode!   We Sound Crazy is your backstage pass to all things music and culture.   Special thanks to our We Sound Crazy team!   Director: John Dierre  Camera Op: Josh Sowemimo, James Hart, John Dierre  Sound Mixer: Derrick Chin Editing Team: Hyyer Creative Show Producer: Michael “Roux” Johnson Producer: Aaron Walton, Lamont Baldwin Assistant: Brittany Guydon  Talent Producer: Isaac Hamm III  Photography: Ah'meer Holt  PA: Kaye Brasley, Tony Cole Thank you to all of our listeners, as well as our partners at Visit Music City.   Special thanks to Carlos King!   Subscribe to We Sound Crazy on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and anywhere you get your favorite podcast.     Follow We Sound Crazy on Social Media: ~ Facebook: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/wscfacebook ~ Instagram: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/wscinstagram ~ Twitter: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/wsctwitter ~ TikTok: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/wsctiktok   Subscribe to We Sound Crazy on YouTube: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/wscyoutube-subscribe   Visit the official We Sound Crazy website: https://wesoundcrazy.ffm.to/officialwebsite   #WeSoundCrazy #CarlosKing Learn more about your ad choices.

Raised: When Jesus Calls the Dead to Life – John 11:27–57 In Episode 141 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore one of the most powerful miracles in all of Scripture—the raising of Lazarus in John 11:27–57. As grief, doubt, hope, and faith collide, Jesus declares Himself to be “the resurrection and the life” before calling Lazarus from the tomb. Together, they unpack what this miracle reveals about the heart of God, the power of belief, and how Jesus often works in ways that stretch our faith beyond what we can see. This chapter is not only about a man being raised from the dead—it's about a Savior who brings life into every place that feels hopeless, buried, or beyond redemption. If you've ever wondered whether God can still move in what feels impossible, this conversation is a reminder that Jesus specializes in resurrection. What area of my life feels beyond hope—and am I willing to believe that Jesus still brings dead things back to life?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams
