For the James Beard Award–winning writer and culinary historian Michael W. Twitty, kitchens provide a multitude of significant purposes that stretch far into the past and carry through to the present. Beyond being places where people cook, share, and eat food, they also serve as vital spaces in which to gather in community, to grieve and process trauma, to teach and learn, to dance, to heal, and to experience Black love and joy. Twitty's multilayered cooking draws on his family roots, his personal history, and his deep culinary knowledge of the American South. His latest title, the cookbook Recipes From the American South (Phaidon), brings his skill as a home cook and historically informed recipe-maker to the fore, allowing ingredients and dishes to transform into cultural and temporal touchpoints. On this episode of Time Sensitive, Twitty reflects on what researching and uncovering his ancestry has taught him about Southern cooking and himself, and shares why, for him, food functions as a tangible form of cultural reclamation and emotional healing.Special thanks to our Season 12 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:Michael W.

Romans 10:9

Dear friends,This week in Two Ways News, we continue the theme of family. Having dealt with the family of Cain in chapter 4, we turn to the new family of Adam. In this family, God's word enables us to see the Lord's plans for salvation, hinted at in Genesis 3:15 and worked out in Noah. We don't often have sermons on genealogies, but hopefully this episode will help us see their importance.Yours,PhillipPhillip Jensen: Welcome again to Two Ways News.Peter Jensen: Phillip, you never wore glasses growing up, but I can remember getting my first pair of glasses and realising that most people could see things that had, for me, only been a blurred vision.Phillip: Spectacles are a very important part of life. The reformers, Tyndale and Calvin, saw glasses as a way of understanding the Bible. Here's an excerpt from Calvin's InstitutesFor just as eyes, when dimmed with age or weakness or by some other defect, unless aided by spectacles, discern nothing distinctly; so, such is our feebleness, unless scripture guides us in seeking God.[1]Without the scriptures, we may know there is a God, but we are confused about who he is. But with the glasses of the scriptures, we can see that which before was only a matter of confusion.Peter: In last week's episode, when we were talking about chapter 4 of Genesis and the family of Cain, you said something like this: that in the midst of the gloom of a fallen world, the grace of God was still discernible. How does chapter 5 throw any light on that? It is odd because when you read it, it seems to consist of a list of names and strangely long lifespans.Phillip: The chapter is a genealogy, but why don't we read it? Friends, this is part of God's word. God has chosen to reveal himself in not just one genealogy, but in several. Genesis 4:25-5:32And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and called his name Seth, for she said, “God has appointed for me another offspring instead of Abel, for Cain killed him.” To Seth also a son was born, and he called his name Enosh. At that time people began to call upon the name of the LORD.This is the book of the generations of Adam. When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. Male and female he created them, and he blessed them and named them Man when they were created. When Adam had lived 130 years, he fathered a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth. The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days that Adam lived were 930 years, and he died.When Seth had lived 105 years, he fathered Enosh. Seth lived after he fathered Enosh 807 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Seth were 912 years, and he died.When Enosh had lived 90 years, he fathered Kenan. Enosh lived after he fathered Kenan 815 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Enosh were 905 years, and he died.When Kenan had lived 70 years, he fathered Mahalalel. Kenan lived after he fathered Mahalalel 840 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Kenan were 910 years, and he died. When Mahalalel had lived 65 years, he fathered Jared. Mahalalel lived after he fathered Jared 830 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Mahalalel were 895 years, and he died.When Jared had lived 162 years, he fathered Enoch. Jared lived after he fathered Enoch 800 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Jared were 962 years, and he died.When Enoch had lived 65 years, he fathered Methuselah. Enoch walked with God after he fathered Methuselah 300 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Enoch were 365 years. Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him.When Methuselah had lived 187 years, he fathered Lamech. Methuselah lived after he fathered Lamech 782 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Methuselah were 969 years, and he died.When Lamech had lived 182 years, he fathered a son and called his name Noah, saying, “Out of the ground that the LORD has cursed, this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the painful toil of our hands.” Lamech lived after he fathered Noah 595 years and had other sons and daughters. Thus all the days of Lamech were 777 years, and he died.After Noah was 500 years old, Noah fathered Shem, Ham, and Japheth.Certain things stand out. Sons and daughters are mentioned each time. It's not just the sons mentioned, nor all the sons; only the first-born sons are named. There's also an incredible sense of life, that they live so long even before they have children, but then they go on living a long life. But there's still that chorus that keeps coming, ‘And he died…and he died…and he died.' Life is still within the family of Adam, yet the death sentence is still there. There are two particularly important characters mentioned: Enoch and Noah. There's a prophecy about Noah: “Out of the ground that the LORD has cursed, this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the painful toil of our hands.” There's a hope for Noah that is different from all the others; there's something special about to happen. What about Enoch?Peter: What we see in Enoch is grace at work. God has been revealed as the great creator. Now, the other name we give him, ‘Saviour', comes into play. The word is not there, but you can see the saviour at play, perhaps with the advent of Seth, who takes the place of Abel. Abel is the man of faith who, even in his death, foreshadows Christ. It is by the family of Seth that men begin to call on the name of the Lord. Presumably, the name of the Lord there is the name ‘Yahweh', the name that people of faith call God as time goes on. Moses has his experience of hearing about the name of God at the burning bush. So, calling on the name of the Lord, perhaps even preaching the name of the Lord, occurs then. It's a signal to us that something significant is happening, that God's grace, his saving power, is at work. He's not going to leave the family of Adam and Eve to perish.Phillip: It's interesting that having had the introduction at the end of chapter 4 about the firstborn son and then the grandson Seth, we have at the beginning of chapter 5 a recap of the story, so to speak, about man being created in the image. The image that man is created in, that Adam has, then passes on to his child Seth. There's a sense in which the dominion to rule the world is passed on, particularly within this family rather than in the family of Cain. There's a godly family here that is then outlined for us.But those long ages testify to life that they have, in all its strength and vigour. Genesis is not telling us everything; it could refer to houses or dynasties. God in his power could have someone live this long, but it's recorded because it is extraordinarily long. People are not going to continue to live that long. When Moses is writing this, he knows that that's not how long people normally live. It may be like Sumerian kings who reigned over this period of time.Peter: They were said to reign for a thousand years, meaning their house, their dynasty, their family, reigned for a thousand years.Phillip: We're not really sure, but it doesn't matter how long they lived, because they died. In this way Enoch is so unique because he walked with God; he was not like the others. God chooses to take him.“Calling on the name of God” is an interesting phrase about God at work in grace. It sounds like it's referring to when people started praying. The phrase is used that way sometimes. The name of the Lord is important to pick up because it's printed in upper case; they were calling on the name ‘Yahweh'. That means that they had personal knowledge of him. When I call God ‘God', I'm talking about what he is, but when I call God ‘Yahweh', I'm talking about who he is; it's a personal relationship. But the phrase ‘calling on' can mean ‘proclaiming', so in Exodus 34, where God proclaims his name to MosesYahweh descended in the cloud and stood with him there and proclaimed the name of Yahweh. Yahweh passed before him and proclaimed, “Yahweh, Yahweh, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness”God proclaimed the name of Yahweh, and so back in Genesis 4, the time of Enosh was the time when people began to proclaim the name ‘Yahweh'.Peter: This fits with what we read about Enoch. We read that he walked with God, exactly what Adam and Eve used to do before they sinned in the garden. It displays the intimacy of faith, which you understand if you're a Christian believer, where you walk with God.Then this extraordinary phrase, in a chapter that says, ‘And then he died', and we come to Enoch, “And he was not, for God took him.” The same happened later on with Elijah, which presumably means that God took him home to be with him. Hebrews 11:5By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God.In other words, Elijah was walking with God. He had pleased God and so was taken up. So there was something extraordinary about this man, Enoch. The wonderful Matthew Henry, an 18th century commentator on these things, saidEnoch was the brightest star of the patriarchal age, distinguished by true religion and eminent religion. He did not only walk after God, as all good men do, but he walked with God, as if he were in heaven already. To walk with God was the business of Enoch's life. It was the joy and support of his life. Whenever a good man dies, God takes him, fetches him hence, and receives him to himself. Those whose walk in the world is truly holy shall find their removal out of it truly happy.[2]I'll never forget John Newton, the writer of Amazing Grace whom you mentioned last time, saying as he neared the end of his life, “I am a great sinner, and Christ is a great saviour.” Our trust in God, shown by our faith and our behaviour of the way in which we live for him, is what saves us.Phillip: Within the genealogy, though, is the narrative of salvation being worked out.Peter: When I looked at our genealogies in the DNA test that I did recently, I was checking up on our ancestry to give me a sense of who we are and where we've come from. It was to satisfy my curiosity about things. But this genealogy is different.Phillip: This is telling us a story and showing us God's grace at work. In the world of Cain and his great-great-grandson Lamech, where things are going so badly, we go back to Adam, and then we find some who are proclaiming the name of Yahweh. In chapter 3, we were told that the seed of the woman would actually crush the serpent. We've been looking for the serpent crusher ever since chapter 3. It wasn't Cain. It couldn't be Abel. It's Seth's son, Enosh. That's when they start proclaiming the name of Yahweh. So we think, ‘Here it's coming,' and then it's just another person who's dead. There's a long wait. God is very patient in his salvation.Peter: But the genealogy is pointing forward; there's someone coming.Phillip: Enoch is someone who's come, and Enoch is saved, but he doesn't save anybody else. Then there's Noah, and he's coming as ‘the one that's going to reverse the curse'. Now we have the name of the serpent crusher, Noah, and the salvation of the world is going to come with this man. I hope we all know something of the events of Noah's life, which we'll look at next time in terms of the flood, but we also know that Noah didn't turn out to be the saviour of the world either. In 2 Peter chapter 2 we readIf he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly… then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment.It's a great passage that refers to Noah, and the fact that it's not Noah who is the saviour, but that God is the saviour through Noah. It's unfortunate because the Greek is actually saying something differently here, which I think is important to understand our genealogy. It talks about Noah as “a herald of righteousness with seven others.” Who are the seven? Most people will tell you who the seven are: Noah's wife, their three sons, Ham, Shem and Japheth, and their three daughters-in-law who go nameless; that equals eight people. The trouble is, the Greek doesn't even say eight; it says ‘eighth'. God preserved Noah, the eighth herald of righteousness. I can understand why our translators make it simple with the solution, he and seven others, but it's not eight; it's eighth.What's more, he's a herald of righteousness, but when you read the events of Noah, he doesn't say anything to anybody; he never preaches. But the word ‘herald' means ‘to preach'. So here's a man who doesn't preach and is called ‘the eighth preacher of righteousness'. The answer is found in Genesis 5, because one of the characteristics of the New Testament quoting and alluding to the Old Testament is the accuracy and care with which they treat the Old Testament, and this is a good example. Back in Genesis 4, we're told, ‘This is the time from which they proclaim the name of Yahweh.' It started with Enosh. You then look at the numbers of people who were there: Enosh, then Kenan, Mahallalel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech and number eight, Noah. He's the eighth proclaimer of the name of the Lord. So Peter is referring to that, not to the family numbers that were saved.Peter: We've put on our spectacles, namely the word of God, and we've looked out at the world. We've come across a passage which seems so remote, so different from the way we think, talking about people who are just beyond imagining. But we see the wickedness and corruption of the world, of human culture, to this day: filled with wonderful achievements, but corrupted by human sin always. We've now seen God at work, that in and through human history, invisible to all but those who put on the spectacles of the Bible, God is there, and he's showing his grace to them. But he's also preparing for the ultimate hero of this genealogy, Jesus. Thus, we should have no fear, but every day, even in the midst of the difficulties of living in a world such as the one we've inherited, we should be filled with faith and hope.[1] John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion, 1535[2] Matthew Henry, Complete Commentary, 1706Scripture quotations are from The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), copyright © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.

Revelation 2: 14  But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication. 15  So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. 16  Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. 17  He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.  Songs: Mansion Over the Hilltop, Alas and Did My Savior Bleed, Amazing Grace.

You've heard the song a thousand times, but have you lived the words?  For more than 250 years, believers have cherished the clear simplicity of “Amazing Grace.” Celebrated recordings 50 years ago by bagpipe bands and pop artists catapulted the old song to international prominence as a kind of “hymn for the world.” Millions resonate with the ache it expresses for freedom, redemption and a future.  But buried in its timeless lines is a simple summary of an equally timeless Bible truth: “God sent His Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through Him” (John 3:17).  John Newton's memorable lines capture our natural wretchedness, our lostness, our inability to truly understand our plight, and our resulting fear. Filled with light only the gospel can bring, his verses also celebrate recovery, relief, clear vision, and being found by the seeking love of the Father.  The author of “Amazing Grace” knew what millions who blithely sing his hymn have never fully grasped: the grace that saves us doesn't override our choice as moral beings. We must agree to let the redemption achieved by Jesus stand in place of all we've done. “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Rom 10:9). So let the old song lead you to new life, new hope, new joy. Embrace the grace that Jesus always offers.  And stay in it. -Bill Knott

Have you ever looked back on your past and wondered if God could still bring redemption and restoration after all you've done or been through? Maybe your story feels too broken, too messy, or too far gone. What if those very chapters you'd rather forget are the ones God wants to use to display His mercy and grace?In this episode, Tracie is joined by Cindy Healy as they continue the season theme “Cast Down Your Bucket Where You Are” with a powerful look at the life of John Newton. Once a man steeped in sin and the slave trade, Newton's story is a breathtaking testimony of redemption and transformation. Through honest conversation and spiritual insight, Tracie and Cindy remind us that no life is beyond God's reach—and that in His goodness, God not only redeems but restores every life surrendered to Him.If you know of someone who can be helped by listening to the Abundant Living Podcast, please share this episode with them.

What if grace isn't tame or polite—but powerful enough to break chains, change hearts, and carry us home? Grace isn't a soft word for a hard world. It's the fierce, pursuing love of God that goes first, finds us at our lowest, and refuses to let go. From John Newton's story of rebellion and redemption to Paul's words in 1 Corinthians, we're reminded that grace is more than a doctrine—it's a Person. In this final message of the Worship Is War series, Pastor Adam Flynt unpacks the truth that grace doesn't just start our faith—it sustains it. It saves wretches, restores wanderers, and strengthens worshipers. Because when grace runs wild in our lives, the war is already won. Have you let God's grace run wild in your life?

世の光いきいきタイム 2025年10月12日 | 賛美をあなたに「驚くべき神の恵み」 賛美歌：「Amazing Grace驚くばかりの」 バイブルメッセージ：「驚くべき神の恵み」中山信児 パーソナリティー：中山信児、飛田紀代美

It would be hard to list my favorites from this weekend. . You could have heard a pin drop during Elder Holland's Amazing Grace. . I won't forget that. . And the tears that streamed down my face through the last song, because didn't we all need the heartfelt reminder that all is well? . But there was one line that captured my heart. . At the very end of a powerful weekend filled with the word of God. . This is real. . And then the sweet invitation I was hoping would come. . Let us be a part of it. . We have so much to discuss. . Who's in?

Today, we tackle an enemy most men never face head-on—your own flesh.Comfort? Make no mistake, comfort is killing us. The flesh isn't harmless. It isn't neutral. It's a beast that wants to drag you to Hell. Scripture says, “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” (Galatians 5:24) Not managed. Not excused. Crucified.The world says feed your cravings. Jesus says—kill them.The cost? Daily death. Agony. Public humiliation. Cancel culture backlash. But the reward—oh, the reward—is life, freedom, peace, and resurrection power.What will you do? Will you crucify your flesh today—or let it control you tomorrow?Buckle up. This isn't self-help fluff. This is raw, real, rooted in the living Word. Let's go to war."For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live." – Romans 8:13Episode Highlights:01:30 - The flesh is evil, it's destructive, it's not neutral, it's not harmless, and it's not something that you can just simply manage on on your own. The flesh is the enemy of God. And if you're not actively crucifying it, I don't care how many times you've been to church or how many Bible verses you've memorized or how loudly you can sing Amazing Grace, your flesh is going to drag you straight into destruction. I understand that might sound harsh, but believe me, I didn't write the Bible. The Word of God is crystal clear about this. The flesh and the spirit are at war with each other. And unless you crucify the flesh, like literally nail it to a cross, you're not going to experience the life that Christ died to give you.13:00 - The flesh isn't neutral and it's not just weak, it's hostile to God. That word hostile means enemy. The flesh hates God. It refuses to submit to God. In other words, when you walk in the flesh, you're aligning yourself with God's enemy. You're standing in opposition to the very one who made you... The acts of the flesh are obvious. Sexual immorality, impurity, debauchery, idolatry and witchcraft. Hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy, drunkenness, orgies and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. 57:11 - Again, remember, please, this is not optional. This is not only for super Christians. This is Christianity 101. Jesus didn't say, if you feel like it, deny yourself. He didn't say, if it's convenient, pick up your cross. No. What did he say? He said this. Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. That is the standard. That's the cost.  Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite 

None of it really makes sense. Last Thursday, a black SUV picked up the O'Leary family and transported us to the gorgeous Powell Hall in St. Louis, MO. As the car doors opened, flashbulbs blinded our eyes and cheers filled our ears. Beth and I hopped out, followed by our boys and our daughter. We stood together by the car, waved confidently as if we had done this before, then made our way onto the red carpet and into the world premiere of SOUL ON FIRE. Let me explain.

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchDOMINGO, 05 DE OCTUBRESEGUNDA OPORTUNIDADEsta es la obra que el Señor se propone realizar por todos aquellos que se consagran a sí mismos a él... A todos los que quieran recibir instrucción les impartirá gracia y sabiduría... Les revelará sus defectos de carácter y concederá fortaleza a todos los que buscan su ayuda para que corrijan sus errores. Cualquiera que sea el pecado que acose al hombre, por amargas e infames que sean las pasiones que luchen por dominarlo, puede vencer si está dispuesto a vigilar y combatir contra ellos en el nombre y con la fortaleza del Ayudador de Israel... El hijo de Dios debe cultivar una aguda sensibilidad hacia el pecado... Una de las artimañas más eficaces de Satanás consiste en inducir a los hombres a cometer pecadillos a fin de enceguecer la mente para que no vean el peligro de las pequeñas complacencias, de los insignificantes apartamientos de los claros requisitos establecidos por Dios. Muchos que se apartarían con horror de alguna gran transgresión, son inducidos a considerar el pecado en asuntos menores como cosa sin mayor consecuencia. Pero estos pecadillos consumen la esencia de la piedad en el alma. Los pies que entran en un sendero que se aparta del camino recto están orientándose hacia el camino ancho que termina en la Muerte. Cualquiera que sea la situación en que Dios nos ha colocado, cualesquiera sean nuestras responsabilidades o nuestros peligros, debiéramos recordar que Dios se ha comprometido a impartir la gracia necesaria al que la busca con fervor. Los que se sienten insuficientes para su cargo y sin embargo lo aceptan porque Dios así lo ordena, confiando en el poder y en la sabiduría de él, avanzarán de fortaleza en fortaleza (God's Amazing Grace, p. 242; parcialmente en La maravillosa gracia de Dios, p. 242). Dios quiere que alcancemos al ideal de perfección hecho posible para nosotros por el don de Cristo. Nos invita a que escojamos el lado de la justicia, a ponernos en relación con los agentes celestiales, a adoptar principios que restaurarán en nosotros la imagen divina. En su Palabra escrita y en el gran libro de la naturaleza ha revelado los principios de la vida. Es tarea nuestra conocer estos principios y por medio de la obediencia cooperar con Dios en restaurar la salud del cuerpo tanto como la del alma. Los hombres necesitan aprender que no pueden poseer en su plenitud las bendiciones de la obediencia, sino cuando reciben la gracia de Cristo. Esta es la que capacita al hombre para obedecer las leyes de Dios y para libertarse de la esclavitud de los malos hábitos. Es el único poder que puede hacerle firme en el buen camino y permanecer en él. Cuando se recibe el evangelio en su pureza y con todo su poder, es un remedio para las enfermedades originadas por el pecado. Sale el Sol de justicia, "trayendo salud eterna en sus alas". Malaquías 4:2 (VM). Todo lo que el mundo proporciona no puede sanar al corazón quebrantado, ni dar la paz al espíritu, ni disipar las inquietudes, ni desterrar la enfermedad. La fama, el genio y el talento son impotentes para alegrar el corazón entristecido o restaurar la vida malgastada. La vida de Dios en el alma es la única esperanza del hombre (El Ministerio de curación, pp. 77, 78). 

On this episode, David Wollen reflects on the passage of Scripture that inspired John Newton to write Amazing Grace.

I can't believe we reached 50 EPISODES of Let It B The Podcast!! In this milestone episode, I open up about the power of sharing our testimonies; how mine has shaped my life, strengthened my faith, and reminded me that even in the struggles, God is still writing my story. I talk about the challenges I still face as a believer, how I've learned to trust God through them, and why our stories matter more than we realize. I also share a portion of my very first speaking engagement, The Power of Your Testimony. In it, I reflect on how the very things I once wanted to hide are now what God uses to reveal His faithfulness. Sharing isn't always easy, but it's a reminder that we're never alone and that our stories can inspire others to keep going. My prayer is that as you hear mine, you'll find the courage to embrace yours and see the beauty and purpose in your journey. =============================  Referenced Scriptures: Ephesians 3:20  Galatians 6:9 Matthew 17:20 Philippians 1:6 John 3:16-18 Matthew 6:28  JOIN OUR BIBLE STUDY!!!!

Charles Morris had a vision to tell the story of John Newton and his hymn Amazing Grace on film. On this episode, David Wollen talks with him about how the project came together and his prayer for how God might use it to point people to Christ.
