Podcasts about appearances

We live in a world full of images—perfect photos, curated posts, and the constant pressure to keep up appearances. But Scripture reminds us of something deeper: people see the appearance, but God looks into the heart (1 Samuel 16:7).In this reflection, we explore how easy it is to get caught up in appearances—our own and other people's—and how that can disconnect us from what's really happening within us. When we slow down and listen to our thoughts and emotions, we may discover that they are places where God is already speaking.Drawing on the Gospel story of the man born blind (John 9), this episode invites us to move beyond blame, assumptions, and surface-level judgments so we can begin to see as God sees.What might God want to show you in your own heart today? And how might learning to share from the heart deepen your connection with others—and with God?Take a moment to pause, reflect, and encounter the God who sees beyond appearances.by Sister Leslie Keener, CDP Sign up to receive our weekly newsletter at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.GodSpaceCommunity.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Join us for an intimate conversation as we sit down with Granger Smith, a country music star who dedicated his life to ministry. Granger opens up about his heart-wrenching journey following the tragic loss of his youngest son, River, which he vulnerably shares in his book, "Like a River."On June 4th, 2019, Granger's life changed forever when River drowned in their family pool. The devastating tragedy sent him into a dark and painful journey, filled with grief, guilt, and criticism from the outside world. Despite his efforts to carry on with his career, Granger was dying inside. Alone on his tour bus one night, he had a transformative spiritual encounter with God that lifted him out of despair and onto a path of healing and renewal. In this episode, Granger shares his vulnerable testimony and the profound lessons he learned including the deep truths about God and faith that emerged from River's passing, navigating grief and the struggles he encountered while trying to support his family through their collective grief, and the moment he felt God's presence and the spiritual encounter that changed his life forever. His experience of nearly taking his own life and finding new purpose led him to the remarkable growth that came from his suffering, and he shares why he wouldn't turn back time, even if it meant having River back. This led to him listening to "the call", as he decided to leave his music career to become a minister , and he shares how preaching has brought him more fulfillment than fame ever did. Join us as we explore Granger's triumphant story of new life birthed out of tragedy, and learn how to face your own failures, confront pain, and connect with God— even when you're in your darkest season. Be prepared for an inspiring conversation filled with hope, faith, and the power of surrender.

We live in the tension of two appearances, Christ's first coming in grace and His future return in glory. In this message, Andrew reminds us that the gospel doesn't just save us from sin; it trains us to live differently while we wait.Titus 2 shows that God's grace has already appeared, bringing salvation and teaching us to say no to ungodliness and yes to lives marked by self-control, righteousness, and devotion to God. As we look forward to Christ's return, we're called to live as people who belong to Him—zealous for good works and shaped by the hope of His coming.Between Appearances challenges us to live faithfully in the present, grounded in grace and motivated by the promise that Jesus is coming again.

A talk by Giuseppe Prisco. This talk was given on February 18, 2026.

Day 15 — Mark 7:1–23 You can look clean on the outside—and still be a mess on the inside. In Day 15 of 40 Days in Mark, Jesus confronts religious performance and reminds us that real purity begins in the heart. Traditions can't transform you. Appearances can't heal you. Only God can change you from the inside out. This episode invites an honest question: Is your faith just external—or is it shaping your heart? One chapter. One day. One step with Jesus.

It was the second day in court for Caroline Peters, who is facing a criminal charge for allegedly identifying a man accused of a sexual offence before he entered a plea. Prosecutors argue that by naming the accused, she contravened a section of the Criminal Procedure Act designed to protect the identity of those facing rape allegations until formal pleas are made. Outside the court, supporters say the case raises broader concerns about gender-based violence, survivor advocacy, and the limits of free expression.

This week's entry to the Local Selection Mix comes from OneCanChan, who delivers an hour of chugging, Italo-kissed, acid-drenched jackin' house, an invitation into their expansive, dancefloor-driven world. A Dublin-based DJ with Chinese roots, OneCanChan's musical aesthetic is shaped by years spent working in record stores, digging deep across prog house, acid, breaks, and global sounds. They also co-run Shimmer Dublin, an open DJ and arts collective fostering community and creativity in the city. They've performed alongside some of Ireland's most respected collectives, including Foxgluv, HONEYPOT, and Club Comfort, and their mixes have reached both local and international airwaves. Appearances include Dublin Digital Radio, Refuge Radio Berlin, and The Cosmic Cast in Naarm. Recent highlights see them opening the White Claw stage at Electric Picnic, supporting Kapote and Cody Currie for Toy Tonics' first Dublin jam, and sharing bills with Moving Still and Coy Haste (Caribou). Their Local Selection contribution stays true to this all-encompassing approach, expertly sewing together slippery acid cuts, deep and lurching prog-leaning grooves, and dusky Italo-disco rhythms. It's a mix that resists introspection in favour of pure physicality, an hour that belongs entirely to the dancefloor. OneCanChan is a DJ who DJs to make people move, and here, bodies are very much in motion. OneCanChan ------------------------- SC: @kiwi-kan IG: www.instagram.com/onecanchan Four Four Magazine

…in this episode of VISITORS. Our conversaton with friend-of-the-pod Jeremiah Horstman continues.  Jeremiah has dedicated himself to exploring the unforgiving lands around Sedona, Arizona. Through relentless field research, he has become one of the foremost experts on the famous Bradshaw Ranch, renowned for its alleged weirdness of every conceivable category.

Appearances with Ross Coulthart and on History's Beyond Skinwalker Ranch have introduced this inveterate researcher, historian, explorer, and adventurer to the world. Whether you're into high strangeness, conspiracy, or just stories of wild, beautiful, and lonely places, this episode has you covered.   

Almost a third (30%) of adults in Ireland say they currently have an idea for a business or product they would like to pursue, according to new research commissioned by the Local Enterprise Offices (LEOs). The findings were released today as Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, Peter Burke T.D., joined the Local Enterprise Offices to launch Local Enterprise Week 2026, which starts tomorrow, Monday 2nd March, with more than 330 events happening across the week to support aspiring and established entrepreneurs. Among those with a business idea, 40% say it came to them at home. Others found inspiration while talking to friends or family (15%), at work (15%), in bed (10%), during their commute (7%), while exercising (5%), or even in the shower (4%). Younger adults appear particularly entrepreneurial, with 52% of under-35s saying they currently have a business idea, compared to just 18% of those aged 55 and over. Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, Peter Burke T.D., said: "Small businesses are the backbone of Ireland's economy, and this research confirms the level of ambition that exists right across the country. People have seen the incredible and innovative businesses that have started and grown internationally from Ireland, and that has clearly given them the ambition to start themselves. "Our goal is to ensure that the right supports are in place to help people turn their ambitions into reality. Local Enterprise Week demonstrates what that support looks like in action through expert advice, practical tools and tailored programmes which are available to every entrepreneur, in every region." Each of the 31 Local Enterprise Offices is hosting events throughout the week, covering topics such as funding opportunities, how to use AI in business, boosting productivity and trading internationally. Highlights across the week include: — AI training events with Google — A special innovation event with Microsoft as part of the Student Enterprise Programme — Live pitch competitions and business networking events — Local celebrations of International Women's Day, featuring some of Ireland's most inspiring businesswomen — Appearances from entrepreneurs and experts, including Eoin McGee, Eddie Wilson of Ryanair, Niall Horgan of Gym+Coffee, Bobby Kerr, Kellie Harrington, and Derval O'Rourke Alan Dillon T.D., Minister of State for Employment, Small Business and Retail, "Local Enterprise Week is a flagship event for the business community across the country. An opportunity to meet, share ideas, solve problems, and most of all look at ways to improve your business. There is no better chance during the year to meet with a local community that wants to help you grow your business and can show you where solutions and opportunities lie. "The week is an opportunity for businesses to reflect on where they are and where they want to go, and Local Enterprise Week provides a pathway to do that. With experts across every business field and talks from inspirational entrepreneurs and businesspeople who have walked the road, it's a brilliant week for business in Ireland." Niamh Smyth, T.D., Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Digital Transformation, said; "Local Enterprise Week is always a great barometer of the challenges and opportunities that exist for businesses across the country. Since Local Enterprise Week 2025, we have seen technology continue to evolve. AI can have a real positive impact on businesses, and we want to ensure small businesses are able to reap its rewards. This week is the perfect time for businesses to learn more about the support that is available to help them digitalise. I encourage small businesses across the country to use this week to explore the resources available to them. The LEOs have been to the fore in helping to digitise small businesses, and Local Enterprise Week is the best opportunity to take that first step." Kieran Comerford, Chair of the Local Enterprise ...

Two of the perhaps most surprising names to appear in the Epstein files are those of the Dalai Lama and Deepak Chopra. Jimmy and his guest, filmmaker Mikki Willis, question the two spiritual leaders' judgment and continued associations after Epstein's conviction, focusing on controversial emails, disputed interpretations of public incidents, and broader criticism of celebrity spiritual leaders who preach enlightenment while allegedly maintaining ties to powerful elites.  Chopra's past writings and public persona are contrasted with his defensive and evasive responses when confronted about Epstein by a journalist at the airport. The segment expands into a wider critique of the "new age" movement, masculinity, parenting philosophy, and what the speakers describe as ego-driven hypocrisy within spiritual communities. Plus segments on Russia rescuing Cuba from Trump's oil embargo and Hugh Hefner as the original honeypot operator. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Howard Lutnick!

A new MP3 sermon from Christ Covenant Reformed Presbyterian is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Getting Past Appearances Subtitle: A Character Study in Proverbs Speaker: Rev. Todd Ruddell Broadcaster: Christ Covenant Reformed Presbyterian Event: Sunday - PM Date: 2/1/2026 Bible: Proverbs 14:4-5 Length: 51 min.

“But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” (

Who is the mysterious “Angel of the LORD” who keeps showing up all over the Old Testament—and why does he talk, act, and receive worship as if he is God Himself? In this episode, Joshua Lewis walks through key Old Testament passages to argue that the Angel of the LORD is not a created angel at all, but the pre-incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ, appearing long before Bethlehem.From Hagar in the wilderness, to Abraham on Mount Moriah, to Moses at the burning bush, to Gideon in the wine press, these Old Testament stories form a consistent pattern: this Angel carries the divine name, makes covenant promises, swears by Himself, declares “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,” accepts worship and sacrifice, and is recognized as Yahweh—with no correction from Scripture. Josh carefully exegetes key passages like Genesis 16, Genesis 22, Exodus 3, and Judges 6, showing how the biblical authors themselves move seamlessly between “the Angel of the LORD” and “Yahweh,” presenting one divine being in more than one person.Along the way, we explore how this fits within Christian theology, biblical prophecy, and the developing revelation of the Trinity. How can God the Father be “invisible” and yet God is repeatedly seen in the Old Testament? How does the New Testament's teaching that the Son is “the image of the invisible God” resolve this tension? And what does it mean for spiritual warfare, for covenant, and for our reading of the entire Bible if Jesus has been present and active in redemptive history from the very beginning?If you're hungry for a deeper dive into Christian theology, Old Testament theophanies, and the identity of the Angel of the LORD as the pre-incarnate Christ, this episode will help you see Jesus woven all through the story of Israel - speaking, saving, commissioning, judging, forgiving, and revealing the Father long before the incarnation.00:00 – The Mystery of the Angel of the LORD Introduced01:55 – The Angel of the LORD as the Pre-Incarnate Son of God (Thesis)02:14 – Genesis 16: The Angel of the LORD Appears to Hagar06:13 – Genesis 22: The Angel swears by Himself to Abraham09:08 – Exodus 3: The Angel in the Burning Bush12:11 – Judges 6: The Angel Commissions Gideon17:56 – Summary: What the Angel Does Only God Can Do18:47 – The Son as the Image of the Invisible God20:06 – Jesus Has Always Been Present in God's Story Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

In this episode, I'm helping you kick off 2026 by reflecting on financial habits that pave the way for a successful retirement. As we set our goals for the year ahead, I share the four key traits I've observed in successful retirees, drawn from years of experience working with people from all walks of life. You'll hear practical advice on how to work hard and invest consistently, the importance of living within your means, and ways to avoid common investment pitfalls that can derail your progress. Whether you're just starting your retirement planning or fine-tuning your financial strategy, this episode is full of actionable tips to help you improve your financial life in 2026. If you're ready to take charge of your future and put a solid plan in place, this episode is a must-listen. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... 00:00 Retirement success traits revealed. 05:29 Budgeting for financial growth. 07:49 Invest simply and consistently. 10:36 Improve and grow net worth. 13:38 Keep an eye on your net worth. Four Habits of Highly Successful Retirees There's no magic bullet to achieving a comfortable retirement. Many successful retirees weren't born into wealth; in fact, about 80% of millionaires started with little and built their nest eggs from scratch. The through-line is diligence and perseverance. A powerful habit among this group is paying themselves first. Rather than saving what's left at the end of the month, successful retirees set aside a portion of their income before budgeting for other expenses. Many automate investments into employer-sponsored retirement accounts or other savings vehicles. This intentionality ensures that the priority remains on building wealth, not just sustaining a lifestyle. Budgeting plays an essential role here. I recommend reviewing your annual spending, categorizing transactions, and identifying excesses. Small changes can help you free up cash for investments and debt reduction. If you struggle with credit card overspending, consider switching to cash or debit cards, which make it easier to visualize your available funds and stay disciplined. There's also a growing temptation to "keep up with the Joneses," especially when social media showcases other people's amazing vacations! Appearances can be deceiving, you never know whether your neighbours are deeply in debt despite flashy photos. The key is to focus on your own financial journey, not someone else's highlight reel. Keep Your Investments Simple Despite the barrage of complex investment themes and "get rich quick" schemes circulating online, the most effective investors stick to the basics. Avoid speculative strategies like day trading, option contracts, and penny stocks for the bulk of your portfolio. These approaches can lead to significant losses, or even financial ruin. Successful retirees typically lean on a diversified, straightforward mix of investments: blue-chip stocks, index funds, bonds, and some real estate. A simple, repeatable investment plan not only reduces stress but also reduces the chance of costly errors. If an investment sounds complicated or "too good to be true," it likely isn't the right tool for you. Track Your Net Worth, Every Year A great habit to get into is consistently tracking your net worth. For example, every year, I  take inventory and value all of my assets, subtract any liabilities, and calculate my own net worth. This exercise isn't just about patting myself on the back, it's an important annual check-in on financial progress which helps me course-correct if I'm getting off track. If you discover stagnant or shrinking net worth, it's a signal to look at spending, debt, or investment choices. For those carrying high-interest debt (over 6–7%), prioritizing repayment can yield safer and higher "returns" than most investments. Even in retirement, monitoring net worth is vital. Spending down savings is natural, but keeping an eye on the pace ensures your money lasts as long as you need it to. Take Action Today Successful retirees don't wait for luck or windfalls, they put in the work, invest with discipline, stay clear of fads, and track their progress. Start by reviewing your own budget and net worth, and set realistic, meaningful goals for the year ahead. Your future self will thank you.

True virtue becomes visible only when the desire to walk faithfully before God outweighs the instinct to manage appearances for others. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar examine how virtue signaling has become a modern way of seeking approval, noting that the human urge to belong often pressures believers to display moral outrage or spiritual discipline without genuine conviction. The guys explain that people have always looked for safety in groups, and that this instinct can quietly influence the heart, even in Christian settings.The guys discuss how social media amplifies this struggle by rewarding the performance of virtue. They point out how easy it is to post a Bible verse, a devotional highlight, or a polished quote without allowing those truths to shape character. Christian leaders carry an added weight because their online presence serves as a form of shepherding, and the guys worry that many settle for shallow guidance rather than deep spiritual engagement. Mark recalls receiving a negative review simply for quoting someone unpopular, and the guys use that example to show how expectations can override thoughtful reflection.The guys turn to resisting the lure of appearances and returning to the steady work of communion with God. Virtue comes from God's own righteousness, justice, and truth, and the guys emphasize that Christians need to slow down, detach from screens, and develop habits that shape the heart rather than the image. They encourage believers to reflect on whether frequent posting influences their behavior or simply reveals what already exists beneath the surface. The more people disconnect from quiet spaces, the easier it becomes to slip into spiritual performance rather than genuine spiritual depth. They suggest taking small steps, such as dedicating the first moments of the day to reflection rather than scrolling.In closing, the guys stress that holiness is demonstrated not through public declarations but through consistent, humble acts of repentance and love. They warn against overcorrecting by trying too hard to avoid virtue signaling, which can distract from the gospel. Instead, they urge believers to show real love, confess sin promptly, and accept correction without defensiveness. They remind listeners that the true mark of a Christian is a heart focused on God's approval rather than human applause. The difference between virtue signaling and true virtue is the motive; when believers seek the Lord's approval above all, it will change how they live, respond, and quietly grow.Send us a textThanks for listening!
