In this episode of TAP, Tim Ahlman is joined by pastor, author, and theologian Carl Lehenbauer for a wide-ranging and deeply human conversation about ministry longevity, marriage, discipleship, and the fire of God's love that holds it all together.Carl shares his journey from associate pastor to senior pastor—and now into a discipleship-focused role—reflecting honestly on burnout, self-awareness, delegation, and the quiet faithfulness that sustains long-term ministry. From there, the conversation moves into the heart of Carl's new book, Fire and Song, a rich exploration of the Song of Songs as God's love song to His people.Together, Tim and Carl explore:- Why love—not programs—is the foundation of a healthy church- How God's love fuels marriage rather than asking couples to manufacture it- The connection between the Song of Songs, Pentecost, and the Holy Spirit- Why admiration and commitment still matter in a distracted culture- How marriage forms us into people who look more like ChristThis episode is honest, theological, pastoral, and hopeful—a reminder that God's love is not only proclaimed, but sung over His people.Want to stay up to date on LCMS Happenings from Pastor Tim?Join the LCMS Current: https://www.uniteleadership.org/thelcmscurrentPodMatchPodMatch Automatically Matches Ideal Podcast Guests and Hosts For InterviewsSupport the showWatch Us On Youtube!

Zechariah's voice had been silent for months, yet when he finally spoke, he celebrated God's faithfulness. God had kept his promises and was bringing salvation to the world. His song reminds us that we don't have to face life's uncertainties alone—God's mercy and faithfulness give our hearts confidence as we wait for Christmas.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus!

What Ever Happened To The Jawbone 12-14-25 Pastor Joe Myers

AM Service 14 December 2025 Sometimes the sharpest battles for the truth of the gospel are not fought against outsiders, but within the church itself. We expect the world to resist the gospel, but what happens when compromise comes from one of our own? What happens when a respected leader, even an apostle, stumbles and by his example leads others astray? That is exactly what happened in Antioch. The apostle Peter — the one who had preached at Pentecost, the one who had been given the vision that Gentiles were clean in Christ, the one who had defended Gentile inclusion before the church in Jerusalem — fell into fear and hypocrisy. And when Peter fell, others followed. Even Barnabas, Paul's dear companion, was swept along by his example. In that moment, the very truth of the gospel was at stake. Would the church be divided into two classes of Christians — Jews who were “truly clean” and Gentiles who were “second-class” unless they adopted Jewish customs? Or would the church stand firm on the gospel of justification by faith alone, through Christ alone, without any additions of law or culture? Into that crisis stepped Paul. He did not remain silent. He opposed Peter to his face — publicly, boldly, and for the sake of the gospel. This was not about personal rivalry, but about guarding the gospel of grace. Beloved, this passage teaches us that the gospel is not only a doctrine to be confessed but a life to be lived. To compromise in conduct is to deny in practice what we profess with our lips. And here we will see both the danger of hypocrisy and the glory of Christ, who has broken down every dividing wall and calls us to walk in step with His truth.

The Portage church of Christ is a group of pre-denominational Christians that are striving to serve the Lord together. Our goal is to please God, and we believe that the best way to do that is to follow the pattern that was established by the churches in the first century and revealed in the New Testament. We have no creed or doctrine except the Bible and we follow the Bible only. We strive for unity in the teaching of New Testament doctrine. Our congregation is not part of, or subject to, any larger man-made religious organization. We are a completely autonomous congregation. We are locally governed, just as the church in the first century was. How does one becomes a member of this church congregation? The exact same way as seen in the Biblical accounts. On the day of Pentecost following Jesus' resurrection, people who repented and were baptized were saved (Acts 2:38) and the saved were added to the church (Acts 2:47). These saved people were members of the body, or church (Colossians 1:18). To become a Christian, the Bible teaches: Hear the gospel (Rom. 10:17) Believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God (John 8:24, 58, Heb. 11:6) Repent of past sins (Luke 13:3, 5) Confess Jesus as Lord (Matt. 10:32-33, Rom. 10:9-10) Be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16) Remain Faithful to Christ (Rev. 2:10, 2 Tim 4:7-8)

Read Online“Amen, I say to you, among those born of women there has been none greater than John the Baptist; yet the least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent are taking it by force.” Matthew 11:11–12The two sentences in the passage above can be challenging to comprehend, but the insights of Church Fathers and saints offer us a deeper understanding.In the first sentence, Jesus declares John the Baptist to be the greatest of those born of women, highlighting John as the last and greatest of the Old Testament prophets. However, John did not live to see the fullness of Christ's work—His death, resurrection, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. This is why Jesus adds, “yet the least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he.” In other words, even the smallest person who receives sanctifying grace through Christ's redemptive work is greater in spiritual privilege than the greatest person before the era of grace.The second sentence may be even more puzzling. How can the Kingdom of Heaven suffer violence, and who are the violent ones taking it by force? The Greek words translated as “violence” and “violent” can also be understood as “forcefully advancing” and those who “advance with force and determination.” Jesus is teaching that entering the Kingdom of God requires great determination, a forceful rejection of sin, and a vigorous pursuit of holiness.Together, these sentences reveal Jesus' message about the incredible blessing of living in the time of grace. We are more privileged than even John the Baptist because we live in the fullness of the Christian dispensation. However, this privilege comes with a responsibility: we must engage in a “violent” battle against our fallen nature, the temptations of the world, and the deceptions of the devil. Entering the Kingdom of God requires zeal, determination, and an all-consuming passion for the things of God.It's easy to fall into a mediocre practice of our Christian faith, letting our disordered desires and emotions dictate our actions. But Jesus calls us to something greater. Those who understand the Christian life as a spiritual battle against sin will be prepared to move beyond mediocrity into a fervent, committed embrace of God's grace, becoming fuller participants in the Kingdom of Heaven. Reflect today on how actively you are receiving and cooperating with God's grace. Are you willing to step out of your comfort zone, repent of every sin, and passionately choose to follow Christ? Though this path requires great sacrifice, the reward of the Kingdom of Heaven is worth it a hundredfold. My most glorious Lord, the gift of Your grace is all I need to achieve the greatness to which You call me. Please pour forth that grace in abundance, and help me to respond to Your invitation to repent of my sin so that I may become a more active member of Your glorious Kingdom of Heaven on Earth and ultimately in Heaven. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Adobe StockSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

Acts 2-4 describes the Holy Spirit filling those gathered in the upper room through three distinct manifestations: a mighty rushing wind, tongues of fire, and speaking in tongues. In episode six of "The Holy Spirit," Duane Sheriff explores the role of the Holy Spirit and addresses common misconceptions and controversies that arose during the day of Pentecost.Despite its controversy, speaking in tongues is well-documented in the Bible. It functions as a tool for magnifying God and, contrary to some beliefs, should not be prohibited. Acts 10 and Acts 19 provide further instances of both Jews and Gentiles receiving the Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues. Why would God devote so much scripture to this if it were not meant to be an enduring aspect of our faith journey?The decision to speak in tongues is personal. God does not impose His will on us; instead, we choose to believe and receive. Like other acts of faith within God's kingdom, it requires our active participation.Click for FREE offer ➡️https://pastorduane.com/landing/the-holy-spirit/

Send us a textFaith that never moves is just talk. We open Genesis 6:22 and watch Noah turn belief into lumber, nails, and a century of resolve, then follow Hebrews 11 to see why obedience is the natural language of trust. From there, Abraham's journeys and knife-edge obedience force an honest question: what good is faith that never risks, reaches, or builds?Together we map a simple, durable path for living love out loud. We start with what Jesus loved. He treasured the Word, answering temptation with Scripture, so we lay out a practical plan to read through the Bible in a year and a weekly rhythm for memorizing and reviewing verses until they live in your heart. We move to prayer the way Luke tells it—Jesus slipping away to quiet places—and share how to carve out daily solitude that turns worry into worship and aligns your will with the Father's.Love for Jesus also shows up in love for His people and for the lost. We talk frankly about belonging to a local church, serving with your gifts, and dropping the lone-ranger mindset. Then we head to a Samaritan well and the streets of Pentecost, where hearts full of the Spirit can't keep quiet about grace. If you've wondered how to turn belief into a life that holds steady under scorn, pressure, and change, this conversation offers a clear framework: read, pray, belong, and share.Listen for practical steps, honest questions, and a steady refrain: trust and obey. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a quick review so more people can find it. What's the first action your faith will take this week?Support the showhttps://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

In this message, Pastor J.R. teaches that Jesus launched a mission for believers to live, give, and love in ways that make earth look more like heaven. He emphasizes that Pentecost shows how the Holy Spirit empowered ordinary people with world-shaping power and presence. Pastor J.R. explains that the Spirit breaks social, cultural, and economic barriers so that everyone—sons, daughters, men, and women—can participate in God's work. He highlights that the Spirit activates believers for mission, leading to breakthrough, salvation, and a church that releases heaven on earth. Finally, he urges radical generosity, sacrificial giving, and openness to how God may stretch or surprise people as they partner in this mission.

Mary wasn't rich, powerful, or famous. She was an ordinary young woman. Yet through her, God brought his Savior into the world—the one who would lift up the humble and bring hope to all people. Mary's story reminds us that Christmas isn't about what we do for God, but about what God has done—and is still doing—for the world.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus!

Malachi 4:1-6 A Day of Deliverance Please turn to Malachi 4. This is the last chapter in Malachi and our last sermon. Last week we considered the distinction that God would make between the righteous and the wicked. On the one hand are the righteous who reverently fear the Lord and who demonstrate their fear by serving and honoring him. On the other hand are the wicked, who do not fear nor honor the Lord. That distinction comes down to whether you know and follow Christ. And also last week, we touched upon the day of the Lord. That phrase is introduced in chapter 3. It's described as the day of the Lord's coming. It's the day, as chapter 3 says, when God will make up his treasured possession. Well, this morning's text continues and expands on that day. It answers the question of what that day is like and how we should prepare for it. As I read, be thinking about Malachi's audience. They were in a dicey and unsettling situation in Jerusalem. Despite their situation, some of them feared the Lord… but others rejected him. So, as you hear these words, think about how each group would receive this prophecy. Reading of Malachi 4:1-6 Prayer In the summer after graduating high school, I worked at a summer camp. One of my responsibilities involved leading a group of teenagers on a long multi-day canoe trip. We were in northern Wisconsin. One day, after a long journey through the various lakes we decided to set up camp on a small island. We thought it would be fun. And it was until the middle of the night when a massive storm rolled in. We woke up to thunder and lightning and then heavy winds followed by a downpour. On top of that, when the front rolled in, the temperatures dropped about 20 degrees. We were cold and wet and since we were on an island, there was no place to go. Well, the rain stopped just before dawn. As soon as it started to get light out, we scrambled to get a fire going. But that was difficult given all the rain. Some of the kids were literally shaking because they were so cold. The fire helped some, but it was still breezy and we had limited wood. But then it happened. The clouds parted, the sun came up, the wind died down. We all just stopped and soaked in the rays. It was like instant warmth. Physically and emotionally… and spiritually. We had been praying for help and within minutes the sun warmed us. In Malachi 4, the people had been enduring a period of life storms in different ways. They had been enduring a period of darkness. They couldn't see how the future promises of God would be fulfilled. Yet, they are told that when the day of the Lord comes, the sun of righteousness will rise. That's spelled s-u-n. He will come. The promised Messiah will come. And his coming will be like the rising of the sun after a long cold night. As I mentioned, these verses are centered around the day of the Lord. That day is spoken of multiple times here. ·      Look at the first sentence there in verse 1. “For behold, the day is coming.” ·      Then the very next sentence in the same verse says the same thing: “the day that is coming…” and it goes on. ·      Now jump down to the end of verse 3. It says, “on the day when I act, says the Lord of Hosts.” ·      And the last one is there in verse 5. “I will send Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes.” …or as some translations say, the great and awful day of the Lord. I mentioned last week that the day described is a day of judgement. Well, that same idea is mentioned in chapter 4 verses 1 and 3. That final judgment will happen when Christ returns. So, there's definitely a sense in which this day will be fulfilled in our future. However, the returned exiles are told that Elijah the prophet will come before that great day. That prophecy has been fulfilled in John the Baptist. We considered a similar prophecy earlier in chapter 3. In other words, there's also a sense that Jesus first coming (you know, his first advent) fulfilled this prophecy about the day of the Lord. John Calvin held that view, and it makes sense considering the reference to Elijah. I think the best understanding is to consider that the “day of the Lord” began at Jesus first advent and will come to completion at his second advent. In other words, for us, there's both a “now” and “not yet” to this “day of the Lord.” In the apostle Peter's sermon at Pentecost, he quotes the prophet Joel's prophecy about the day of the Lord. And he indicates that it is being fulfilled. Other New Testament texts speak of the last days that we are in, which will come to a final completion when Christ returns. So, the day has come, and it will come. However, from the perspective of the people in the Old Testament, it appeared to them be one event. Think about it this way. It's kind of like driving through a mountain range. This last May we were driving through the Rocky Mountains. If you've ever been there, you'll know that the mountains are massive. Sometimes, though, you'll see an especially large mountain, but as you drive past it, you realize that, oh no, that was not one mountain, it was actually two mountains. It just looked like one mountain from a distance. The “Day of the Lord” prophecy is like that. To God's people in the Old Testament, it looked like one event. Yet for us, who live after Jesus first coming (and who have the New Testament) we realize that the prophecy both has been fulfilled and it will be fulfilled. We are living in that day now with all the benefits and blessings of Jesus first coming, but with anticipation of his second coming. And when he comes again, the full judgment and mercy of God will be fulfilled. But the people in Jerusalem just needed to know that the Messiah was coming. And when he came, it would be the day of the Lord. And the Lord tells them through Malachi, what that day will be like and how to prepare for it. It's the same application for us. The difference is that for them it was entirely a future reality that they needed to prepare for. For us it's both a present and future reality, but with the same call to prepare. So, let's dive in answer those two questions. What is the day of the Lord like? And, how should we live in it and prepare for it? By the way, you'll see an outline there in the bulletin. 2 points going along with those two questions. 1. The Day of the Lord: Beholding its Light 2. The Day of the Lord: Living in its Light So, beholding and living in the day of the Lord. 1. The Day of the Lord: Beholding its Light By the way, I'm using the word “beholding” because twice in this text, they are told to “behold!” Verses 1 and 5. We saw the same word back in chapter 3 verse 1. Behold! The day is coming. Wake up. Be ready! God will fulfill his promise. It's like what the angels said to the shepherds in Luke 2. “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” Behold. And what will that day be like? Well, we're given a picture. By the way, did you notice all the imagery in these verses? Oven, fire, stubble, branch, root, sun, wings, a calf, ashes, and feet. It is a picture of what the day will be like. They needed to know. And the first thing they needed to know, which is a continuation from chapter 3, is that it will be a day of judgment. It will be like an oven. The wicked will be like stubble burned in a fire. Have you ever taken pine straw or wood shavings and thrown them into a fire? It sparks up and bursts into a flame. The wicked are described as being set ablaze. Their branches AND roots will be burned. And in verse 3, they will be trampled underfoot. And remember, the Lord had been speaking to Israel. Malachi was prophesying to the people who had returned from Babylon to Judah and Jerusalem. Many of them fell into the category of wickedness. They didn't fear the Lord. Their words and actions displayed a lack of faith. Even though they were counted among God's people, they didn't return to him. What I am saying is that as much as these verses are an encouragement to the people who feared the Lord, they are also a graphic warning to those who do not know nor fear him. Return to me or on that day, you shall be ashes trod underfoot by the righteous. It will be a day when the Lord “acts.” Verse 3. From their perspective, there had been a lot of in-action by the Lord. But that will all change when the day of the Lord comes. But beware, because that action will in part be action against the wicked. So that's the warning… but there are also some very encouraging aspects to the coming day. As I already mentioned, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. For us, that feels like a strange mixing of metaphors. The sun and wings. But the best understanding of this is how the sun would be painted.  Picture the sun like a yellow platter with squiggly lines radiating from the platter. Well, those squiggly lines that someone would draw were called the sun's wings. It's the rays of the sun beaming down on the people. And those rays heal. The people back then knew this by experience.  And we know this by the sun's healing properties. We don't just receive warmth, but our bodies produce vitamin D from the sun light. That boosts our immune system. Being in the sun also lifts our mood.  And when we are in the sun for a little bit every day, we even sleep better at night. What this is saying is that God's righteousness will be like the sun! God will shine his holiness and his goodness and his truth upon us on the day of the Lord. And all of that has been and will be fulfilled in Jesus. We have seen the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. His righteousness has been and is being displayed for all the world to see. And Jesus' ministry is a ministry of healing, is it not? Let me highlight three ways. ·      Number 1, Jesus' heals our relationship with God. Through the cross and in the resurrection, we've been given peace and reconciliation with him. ·      Number 2. He ministers his healing in all the sorrows and grief in life. God in Christ ministers to us in our weakness and our burdens and our trials. Jesus said, “come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest for your soul… for my yoke is easy and my burden is light” ·      And number 3. Christ will ultimately heal all of creation. He will restore all things. This is definitely part of the future promises of the day. When Christ returns in glory, all things will be made new. The groaning of all creation will be no more. The old will be burned up and the new will come. Creation will no longer be fractured and marred by sin, but rather it will be perfect and unblemished... and the light of Christ's righteousness will shine forever. There will be no need for the sun because Christ's glory will be the light. The sun of Righteousness has and will come with healing in his wings! Some of those things have come true and some will come true at the end of the age. And… what a joy it is to know the healing ministry of Christ. And speaking of joy, that is the other description we're given. On that day, the righteous in Christ will leap like a calf full of energy as it leaps for joy! I've never actually seen a calf in such a state, but I've read that it is quite the scene. After a calf has been in a stall all night, and it is then let out… apparently it bursts forth in uncontained exuberance. It leaps and twists and bucks and it runs in circles. It's like a ball of uninhibited joy as it bounds around. Our dog, Toby, was like this when he was a puppy. Sometimes we would have to leave him in his crate for a while, otherwise he would eat our socks. When we got home, we would let him outside in the backyard… and he would race around in circles as fast as he could. And then he would want to play. That is the kind of joy that we will experience to the fullest extent… when the Lord returns. Nothing will be able to contain our excitement on that day. So, the day will be a day of judgment, but it will also be a day of righteousness and healing, and a day of great joy. 2. The Day of the Lord: Living in its Light Which brings us to the concluding verses of Malachi and point #2. Living in its Light. The next question is, how should we live in the day of the Lord now? And related to that, how should we prepare for his future coming? First, look at verse 4. the Lord commands them… “remember the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules, that I commanded him at Mount Horeb…” It's referring to the 10 commandments. Mount Horeb and Mount Saini are the same place. All throughout Malachi, God has been revealing to the people how they had forgotten his law and commands. They had wandered from him by breaking his law. They were doing things that God commanded them not to do, and not doing things that God commanded to do. And so he commands them to remember his law. But in order to return to God's law and to him, they needed to repent. They needed to turn from their faithlessness and sin and back to God. That is what verses 5 and 6 are alluding to – turning back to God and to one another. What I mean is that in verse 5, Elijah is mentioned. Elijah is THE representative prophet. His message, which was the message of all prophets, was a message of repentance. Malachi's prophecy is likewise a message of repentance. Return to me, the Lord has said through Malachi. And in verse 6, this new Elijah that is coming will also turn the hearts of fathers to their children and children to their fathers. It's the same message of repentance but focused on our relationships with one another. In fact, in Luke chapter 1. The angel of the Lord tells John the Baptist's father, Zechariah, three things about his son related to this. #1, “he will turn many of the children of Israel back to the Lord their God.” #2. John “will go before the [Lord] in the spirit and power of Elijah.” And #3. The angel quotes Malachi 4:6. John will turn “the hearts of fathers to their children.” You see, this turning people to the Lord and to one another is the message of repentance. That is exactly what John the Baptist preached. He said, “Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand.” So, Moses and Elijah. The Law and the prophets. God's commands for us and his call for us to repent. Really, it summarizes both Malachi and the entire Old Testament. Think about our study of Malachi. Here's how it's gone: The Lord said: 1. I have loved you. 2. But your words and actions have betrayed that love. 3. You have therefore been faithless. 4. Return to me for the day of the Lord is coming. 5. If you do return, you will be counted among the righteous on that day. If you do not return, you will be counted among the wicked. And 6. The concluding words here: So, remember my law and repent. And notice the very last words, “lest I strike the land with a decree of utter destruction.” The Lord opened up his prophecy through Malachi with the words, “I have loved you” and he concludes with this warning. It is one last appeal that they examine their hearts, or they will reap the consequences of their unbelief. Are you following how these last verses summarize Malachi? And, as I mentioned, this conclusion also summarizes the entire Old Testament. Again, Moses and Elijah - the law and the prophets. At one point in Jesus's ministry, he went up on a mountain with three of his disciples, Peter, James, and John. And when Jesus was on the mountain, he shone with the glory of his divine nature as sovereign King. The Gospel writers say that he was transfigured. Now, listen to what Matthew said. He said that Jesus' face “shone like the sun.” s-u-n. And guess who appeared from heaven with Jesus? Moses and Elijah. God the Son, the sun of righteousness, revealed his glory as the one who fulfilled all the words of the law and the message of prophets. In him, the day of the Lord has come. For Malachi's original audience, the day was coming soon. For us, it has and it will come. Well, I would be remiss if I didn't end with the call for you and me. It's really the same call now as it was then. We are to remember the law of Moses. The 10 commandments are not something from a bygone era that has no relevance today. No, rather, we are called to pursue the Lord and his commands. We're to love him with all our heart and soul and mind and strength. And we're to love our neighbors as ourself. And when we fail, we are to repent and return to him in faithfulness. None of that is works salvation. Rather, it is responding to the love of God in Christ Jesus, who gave himself up for us. Just like Malachi's audience, God loves us. We are his people, whom he elected from before the foundation of the world. In love, he gave us his commands that we would know him and walk in his ways. And just like them, we often fail, but God does not treat us as our sin deserves. No, he calls us to repent and return to him. And he will lovingly receive us again. All because the sun of righteousness has come with healing in his wings. So may we do just that. May we heed the warning of judgment. And may we rejoice this advent, with exuberant joy, basking in all the rays of the righteousness of Jesus – our Savior and our Lord. For his day has come and he will come again.

In this episode of the Living Well podcast, Liv Hill and Megan Argueta delve into the importance of asking for help, exploring personal stories of independence and the struggles that come with it. They discuss how societal views on mental health and therapy have evolved, emphasizing that seeking help is a sign of strength rather than weakness. The conversation also touches on the spiritual aspects of seeking assistance and the importance of teaching the next generation about the value of community support. They conclude by discussing marriage counseling as a proactive tool for growth rather than a last resort. In this conversation, Megan Argueta and Liv discuss the importance of understanding spousal needs, effective communication in relationships, and the significance of seeking help when facing challenges. They emphasize the role of pride in preventing individuals from asking for assistance and the transformative power of support in personal and spiritual growth. The discussion also touches on the journey of prodigals and the importance of acceptance within the church community.

Alreadywe talked about the office of apostleship. Thespiritual gift and office of evangelists means that these are those in thechurch who “bear the good news”. That's what evangelist means. “Evangel”, “Abearer of good news”. Someone who takes the good news of the salvation that'savailable through Jesus Christ to the world that's lost and dying and on itsway into an endless eternity to a terrible place called hell. This gift iscrucial to the outreach and expansion of the church.  As I have looked at this passage and thoughtabout the spiritual gifting of the church, I want to remind you every gift, those17 gifts that were given to the baby church, that listed in Romans 12, 1Corinthians 12-14, and here in Ephesians 4, were all necessary for the localchurch, so that it could be a healthy and growing church that fellowships, thatworships, that evangelizes, that disciples, that builds up one another,ministers and cares for one another and changes the culture and the world inwhich it's placed. Oh, how awesome that is.  Ipersonally believe that every believer has at least one primary gift. I believethese primary gifts are the seven that are listed in Romans 12. You have atleast one of those as your primary gift. But in some since we call all practicethe gift of serving, the gift of giving, the gift of ministering. We all canpractice most of the gifts, but we have that one primary gift.  Ithas also been very interesting to me that the way we look at things in thechurch, and respond to challenges that the church might have, will be based onthe spiritual giftedness that God has given to each one of us. But all thegifts are necessary. They are very necessary for the church to be a healthychurch. Every member exercising their particular gift. When you're exercisingyour gift, instead of wearing you out, there's something that energizes you,that frees you, that gives you fulfillment and contentment, and a sense ofpurpose in the church. It is vitally necessary and very important for you toknow your spiritual gift.  Whenwe look at spiritual gift and office of the evangelist, we might think ofpeople like Peter who on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2, who preached and 3,000souls are saved. He is the main spokesman for the church in the early chaptersof Acts. He is sent to Cornelius in Acts 10 and wins the first Gentile to the Lord.We even think the Apostle Paul had must have had this gift of evangelism. Laterhe would write to the church at Corinth how, “some plant and some water, butGod gives the increase” (1 Corinthians 3:7-8).  Paultold Timothy, who I believe had the gift of pastor, serving in the office ofpastor in many of the churches that Paul planted, and yet he told him do thework of an evangelist. In other words, all of us can be witnesses for JesusChrist. At the same time understanding and exercising our individual Spiritual gifts. Ithink of men in days past, like my dad, J. O. Grooms, D.L. Moody, Billy Sunday,Baily Smith, and Billy Graham, and today men like Rick Via and Steeven Kumar, whoobviously have that Spiritual gift, and fulfilled the office of evangelist, andhave been used to spread the Gospel around the world. We need these wonderfulmen of God as they go forth, and they bring new believers into the Kingdom.Then the pastors and teachers come in, and disciple and grow them. What awonderful thing it is to see God functioning and working through the localchurch of believers to glorify His son Jesus Christ.  Whata wonderful passage of scripture reminding us that each of us has a place inthe church. May the Lord help us to discover our spiritual gifts, and then alsoexercise them today in the body of Christ. Godbless!

Delivered by Pastor Brad Smith 07/12/25. Our church formed about 60 years ago during one of the early outpourings of the Holy Spirit in Australia. As time went by two distinct types of spirit filled groups formed. Some groups determined that believing or accepting Christ was New Testament salvation and that the anointing of the Holy Spirit was an optional extra. The others believed that the anointing of the Holy Spirit and water baptism was salvation and was evidenced by the prophesied sign of speaking in tongues (both groups adopted a large variety of beliefs, practices and prophetic understandings). Our church adopted the same belief that Peter spoke of on the day of Pentecost. A PDF copy of the talk notes is available to view or download at: https://www.brf.org.au/articles/articles.jsp?category=9 A MP4 video is also available to view or download at: https://www.brf.org.au/videos/videos.jsp?category=2 And/Or A YouTube link to the uploaded video. https://youtu.be/s2SYVf00W9A

Pentecostalism is known for its passion and speed, but there's another aspect to the experience. For every flash of prophecy there is a methodical process to fulfillment. For every miracle, there is a lifetime of positioning. Join us as we discuss Pentecost, from all angles.   #KingdomSpeak #Podcast  #Intentionality

Pentecost wasn't just another Jewish festival—it was God's cosmic reset button for all creation. David, Christine, and Josh walk through the dramatic events of Acts 2, where the theophanic cloud that once filled the temple now fills God's people. They explore how Peter's sermon reveals the most scandalous aspect of the Gospel: those who killed God are offered forgiveness, cleansing, and the gift of the Holy Spirit. The same number who died at Sinai for worshiping the golden calf—3,000—are now saved through the ultimate crime of crucifying God Himself.

The Spirit before Pentecost? The pandemic and the flood? The apologist trap? Join us for Called to Communion with Dr. David Anders.

We were created in the image and likeness of God, and through Christ we have become His body on the earth. On the day of Pentecost, God poured out His Spirit so that His people could walk in His mind, His wisdom, His character, His power, and His authority. The same Spirit that was in Jesus now lives in us—not because we earned it, but because of grace. Fasting and prayer don't qualify us for anointing; they simply bring our hearts closer to God so that His Spirit can move freely through us. Jesus is the perfect example of the fivefold ministry—apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor, and teacher—and His characteristics shaped everything He did. He was passionate, compassionate, loving, forgiving, interruptible, truthful, and full of authority. Because of who He was, He healed, delivered, restored, taught, and commanded the world around Him. That same supernatural power is not found in the natural man but in the Holy Spirit working within us. Though we are not perfect, God still chooses to use us because of grace. As His followers, we are called to extend His work in every area of influence He assigns to us—from the local to the global—living out His character and continuing His ministry in the world today.

The Chairman Of The Church of Pentecost, Apostle Eric Nyamekye, throws more light on this in this insightful message titled "The World Needs A New Life" at the Thomas Wyatt Memorial Temple in Accra. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

⚖️  Extremism shouldn't be our brand. There's two balanced sides to pentecostalism: intentionality and suddenly.   #KingdomSpeak #Podcast  #Pentecostalism

Jesus declared that his disciples would be his witnesses “to the ends of the earth.” Early Christians lived out this proclamation in powerful and palpable ways. Today we struggle to witness to those close to us, let alone to those at the ends of the earth. This series offers a glimpse into ways early Christians witnessed. Impacted?

Welcome to Day 2741 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – Pentecost and the Reversal of Babel: Reclaiming the Nations for Yahweh Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2741 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps!   I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2741 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com.   Today's lesson is titled Pentecost and the Reversal of Babel: Reclaiming the Nations for Yahweh   The biblical narrative does not unfold randomly—it is a carefully structured drama of rebellion, judgment, and redemption. One of the clearest examples of this pattern occurs between two seemingly distant events: the judgment at the Tower of Babel in Genesis Eleven and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost in Acts two. While Babel marked the disinheritance and scattering of the nations due to collective rebellion, Pentecost served as a supernatural reversal of that judgment and the formal beginning of Yahweh's mission to reclaim the nations under the rule of His Son, Jesus the Messiah. This first segment is: Babel: Humanity's United Rebellion and Yahweh's Judgment. In Genesis Eleven, mankind, still united by one language and culture, gathered in defiance of God's command to spread out and fill the earth (Genesis Nine verse 1).   Instead, they sought to build a tower—a ziggurat—that would “reach to the heavens” and make a name for themselves. This act was more than urban planning or architectural ambition; it was a spiritual rebellion. In the Ancient Near East, ziggurats symbolized sacred space, portals between heaven and earth, where humans could manipulate the gods. The Tower of Babel, therefore, represented a counterfeit mountain of assembly—an attempt to storm heaven and force divine presence on human terms. God responded not by destroying them physically but by confusing their language. This act severed their ability to conspire as one. More significantly, according to Deuteronomy thirty-two verses eight and nine (Dead Sea Scrolls versions), God responded by disinheriting the nations: When the Most High assigned lands to the nations, when he divided up the human race, he established the boundaries of the peoples according to the number in his heavenly court. “For the people of Israel belong to the Lord; Jacob is his special possession. This passage reveals a profound truth: Yahweh handed over the rebellious nations to lesser divine beings—members of the heavenly host often referred to as the bene elohim. These beings were expected to rule justly, but Psalm 82 shows that they instead oppressed and corrupted the nations under their charge, leading Yahweh to declare their doom. From Babel onward, Yahweh would focus on a single nation—Israel—through whom He would eventually bless all the nations (Genesis twelve verse three). The second segment is: Pentecost: The Gathering Begins. Fast forward to Acts two. The Jewish feast of Shavuot (Pentecost) had brought devout Jews and proselytes from across the known world to Jerusalem. This was the perfect...
