The Attributes of God: The Omniscience of God Psalm 139:1-14

Send a textThis episode tackles the most important—and most misunderstood—attribute in Air Force Special Warfare: integrity. Aaron and Peaches break down why integrity isn't about being perfect, looking good, or avoiding trouble—it's about owning mistakes immediately, telling the truth when it costs you, and keeping your word when no one is watching. From ND ownership, DUIs, and pipeline consequences to combat decision-making, gray-area ethics, and trust inside elite teams, this is a blunt reality check. You can't fake integrity, and once it's gone, nothing else matters. If you want to be trusted with lives, secrets, and missions, this is where it starts.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and why integrity matters 02:00 Attributes-based selection explained 04:10 Defining integrity—owning mistakes 07:20 Ego, lies, and instant loss of trust 10:30 Life, wife, and truck—what trust really means 14:00 Team rooms, cages, and high-trust culture 17:45 Integrity with yourself before selection 21:30 DUIs, omissions, and why lying compounds pain 26:00 Ethical dilemmas and gray-area decisions 31:10 Combat examples and moral injury 36:00 Integrity feeds every other attribute 40:30 Final charge: your name is your bond

What does it mean to experience genuine freedom today? And how can a study of God's attributes bring that freedom? In this episode, we talk with pastor JP Foster about his new book (co-written with Talbot professor Matt Williams): Finding Freedom in Jesus: The 21 Attributes of Your Identity in Christ. We discuss how understanding God's character can transform our understanding of who we are, and as a result, leading to relational, spiritual, and emotional freedom.  JP Foster serves as Senior Pastor at Faithful Central Bible Church, one of the largest African American churches in Los Angeles. His leadership and Biblical exposition have impacted thousands both in the Los Angeles area and around the world, as he encourages people to build their lives on the foundation of God's word. He also serves as a Ministry Affiliate Faculty at Biola University, teaching courses in Biblical Interpretation and Spiritual Formation. He has also led impactful initiatives to improve educational outcomes and the overall well-being of impoverished areas in Kenya and Eswatini. ==========Think Biblically: Conversations on Faith and Culture is a podcast from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University, which offers degrees both online and on campus in Southern California.

Send a textThis episode kills one of the biggest misconceptions in Air Force Special Warfare prep: the IFT is not a measure of fitness. Aaron breaks down why fitness and endurance are evaluated as core attributes in selection—and how physical preparedness underpins everything else: leadership, communication, teamwork, survivability, and credibility. From diesel engines vs Lambos to unknown time, unknown distance missions, this is a blunt explanation of why being “fit enough” isn't enough. Fitness isn't about looking good or checking a box—it's about being capable, violent when necessary, and reliable when lives depend on you.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and why fitness matters 01:40 The IFT explained—entry standard, not the goal 04:30 Attributes-based selection and raw materials 07:20 Endurance vs short-term performance 10:15 Two IFTs back-to-back and recovery reality 13:10 Fitness drives communication and leadership 16:30 Dive school, free fall, and pipeline demands 20:00 Diesel engine vs Lambo analogy 23:45 Job reality: unknown time, unknown distance 27:00 Credibility on teams and first impressions 30:30 Fitness, survivability, and lethality 33:00 Final charge: train for the job, not the test

Send a textThis episode breaks down one of the most misunderstood attributes in Air Force Special Warfare: drive. Aaron explains why drive and grit aren't about hype, yelling, or being the best on day one—they're about self-initiation, perseverance, and long-term commitment when the outcome is uncertain. Using real selection examples, RAND research, and hard lessons from the pipeline, this episode shows how instructors actually evaluate drive: effort when exhausted, bouncing back from failure, refusing victim mentality, and staying locked on the end state. Motivation fades. Drive doesn't. If you're waiting to “find grit” at selection, you're already late.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and defining drive 02:10 Drive vs grit—same engine, different words 04:45 Attributes-based selection and raw materials 07:00 Motivation is fake—discipline wins 09:30 Drive vs fitness vs stress tolerance 12:40 How instructors actually evaluate drive 16:10 Max effort when failure is guaranteed 19:15 Bouncing back from setbacks 22:30 Victim vs victor mentality 25:40 Pipeline ≠ goal—the job is 28:45 Drive as a buildable skill 31:30 Final charge: impose your will

They lay out the top 10 things every candidate should be doing before shipping: fitness, water confidence, rucking, mindset, nutrition, recovery, ego control, recruiters, and avoiding the dumb mistakes that shut doors forever. No hype. No shortcuts. Just volume, discipline, and doing the boring things consistently. They also hit bonus topics like zone two running, caffeine addiction, relationships that derail candidates, and why “natural talent” is usually a liability.

n this episode, Nick Bullock, senior pastor of Christ Church (PCA) in New Braunfels, Texas, joins Camden Bucey and Jim Cassidy to discuss an upcoming conference themed "Thy Word is Truth" (February 27–March 1, 2026) and, more importantly, why a sturdy doctrine of Scripture is not a luxury but a necessity for the church. They explore how Scripture's authority undergirds every other theological conversation, shaping how Christians understand God, worship him, and resist the many counterfeit "voices" that compete for allegiance. The conversation also highlights a timely pastoral burden: weak views of Scripture often leave believers vulnerable—whether to "me-and-my-Bible" isolation (confusing sola with solo), or to the perceived stability of traditions that promise rootedness without delivering true unity. By reconnecting the doctrine of Scripture to the doctrine of God—his truthfulness, immutability, and steadfast love—the episode invites listeners to hear again the shepherd's voice in God's word and to respond with reverent, regulated, Christ-centered worship.

Send us a textThis episode breaks one of the biggest myths in Air Force Special Warfare selection: teamwork is not about getting along. Aaron lays out exactly what instructors are looking for in an attributes-based selection model—and why teamwork is evaluated even in an individually graded pipeline. From hydration and gear prep to buddy breathing, leadership, authenticity, and putting team gear before personal comfort, this is a no-fluff blueprint for being the teammate units actually want. If you think teamwork means giving away reps or playing the spotlight ranger, you've already missed the point. This is about selflessness, consistency, and mission-first behavior—from day one.⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 Ones Ready intro and teamwork reality check 01:45 What “attributes-based selection” actually means 04:50 Teamwork ≠ giving reps or hiding weakness 07:20 Team gear before personal gear—always 10:15 Why operators are never lone wolves 13:30 Watching individuals become real teams 16:45 Brown Team story and real unit teamwork 20:40 How instructors spot good vs bad teammates 23:10 Buddy breathing as pure teamwork 26:45 Adaptability, leadership, and followership 30:30 Authenticity vs spotlight rangers 34:10 Consistency, integrity, and trust 38:00 Teamwork turns pain down 41:30 Final charge: stop thinking about yourself

In this episode of No Co Radio, Pastor Mike introduces a new "Variety Show" format designed to be fast-moving and segment-based. The episode explores the depths of Christian living and doctrine, beginning with a study of the “Lord's Prayer” as a comprehensive template that prioritizes God's glory over human needs. He critiques the "Be the Message" movement, arguing that believers should proclaim the gospel rather than attempting to "be" it, as human imperfection can never substitute for the perfect work of Christ. The discussion also covers the dangers of self-righteousness, the theological distinctions between Protestant "accounting" and Roman Catholic "making" in justification, and a recommendation for A.W. Pink’s “The Attributes of God”. Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/K6MXSkZaZh0 Produced/Edited By: Marrio Escobar (Owner of D2L Productions) 

Send us a textThis episode closes out the Attributes Series with the one that ties everything together: problem solving. Aaron and Peaches break down what instructors are actually evaluating when they give you impossible tasks, incomplete information, and artificial stress. You're not expected to find perfect answers—you're expected to make a decision, communicate it, accept risk, and move. From paralysis by analysis to five-breath resets, triage thinking, and real-world examples from combat, medicine, and selection, this is a practical blueprint for building a decision-making algorithm you can rely on when things are chaotic.

The Seven Attributes of Jesus (Christology 1)Big Idea: Jesus Christ is not just a chapter in the story of God; He is the Author, the Hero, and the Ending. When we see Jesus for who He truly is, every other priority in our lives finds its proper place.Today we begin a nine-week journey through the Book of Hebrews, a letter written to magnify the greatness of Jesus Christ. Hebrews isn't primarily about religious rules, moral improvement, or spiritual techniques. It's about Jesus—who He is and what He has done. Everything else flows from that foundation.The original audience was likely Jewish Christians living under Roman rule, facing intense persecution. As pressure mounted, many were tempted to abandon their faith in Jesus and return to the familiarity and safety of traditional Judaism. Hebrews speaks directly into that tension with one clear message: Jesus is greater than anyone or anything that came before Him. To walk away from Him would be to walk away from the fulfillment of all God's promises.The author of Hebrews remains anonymous, one of the great mysteries of the New Testament. While Paul may have influenced it, the writing style is far more polished and rhetorically sophisticated than Paul's letters. Hebrews chapter 1 proves this immediately. Verses 1–4 form a single, majestic sentence in the original Greek—an exordium, designed to grab attention with both beauty and weight.Hebrews 1:1–4 (NLT) sets the stage:“Long ago God spoke many times and in many ways to our ancestors through the prophets. And now in these final days, he has spoken to us through his Son…”In the Old Testament, God spoke in fragments—a dream here, a burning bush there, a prophet's warning along the way. But in Jesus, God didn't just send messages; He sent the Message. This is Christology—the study of the person and work of Jesus Christ—and Hebrews wastes no time getting to the point.In verses 2–3, the author unleashes a rapid-fire description of Jesus using seven distinct attributes. In Scripture, the number seven represents completeness and perfection. Together, these form a full portrait of the Son.Jesus is the Heir—the goal of history. God has promised everything to Him as an inheritance. History is not random; it is moving toward the coronation of King Jesus. He is the “why” behind all creation.Jesus is the Creator—the architect of reality. Through Him, God made the universe. Jesus is not a created being; He is the source of all things. Nothing exists apart from His will.Jesus is the Radiance—the shining glory of God. He doesn't merely reflect God's glory like the moon reflects sunlight; He radiates it. The Son is the visible manifestation of the invisible God—“Light from Light.”Jesus is the Expression—the exact imprint of God's nature. The Greek word charaktēr refers to a stamp or seal. Jesus doesn't resemble God; He perfectly represents Him. To see Jesus is to see God.Jesus is the Sustainer—the glue of the cosmos. He holds everything together by the power of His word. The universe doesn't persist on autopilot; it endures because Jesus commands it to.Jesus is the Savior—the cleanser of sin. When He purified us from our sins, the work was finished. Unlike Old Testament priests who never sat down, Jesus completed the work once for all.Finally, Jesus is the Ruler—the seated King. He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven, a position of total authority. The victory is won.Hebrews 1:4 reminds us that Jesus is far greater than angels, traditions, or anything else we might be tempted to trust. For believers facing hardship, this truth re-centers everything.The message of Hebrews is clear:...

Today our 'what is question' is, 'What is God Like?' We are looking at His attributes. We will use the Bible to answer these questions. We have established its authority and trustworthiness. This book originated from God’s mouth. He gave us the Bible so we could know Him. Man did not research and find God; but rather God revealed Himself through the living word, Jesus, and the written word, the Bible. We will never know everything about God, even in heaven, for we will always be finite, and He will always be infinite. But He has revealed Himself so that we could know Him and bring glory to Him. That is our highest good and where our greatest happiness is found. Let’s get started in seeing what we can understand about what God is like.

Josh Kouri continues our series on the attributes of God proclaiming that the God who is fully sufficient in Himself is also fiercely jealous for His people, and He won't share them with lovers that won't satisfy.

Send us a textThis episode closes out the Attributes Series with one of the most mission-critical traits in Air Force Special Warfare: stress tolerance. Aaron breaks down what stress tolerance actually means—not being emotionless, but staying inside the performance window when stakes are high. From eustress vs distress to stress inoculation, breath control, visualization, and recovery, this is a practical blueprint for how instructors evaluate candidates under pressure. Mass casualties, buddy breathing, danger-close CAS—this attribute decides whether you freeze, spiral, or perform. Stress is guaranteed.

Send us a textThis episode tackles one of the most decisive attributes in Air Force Special Warfare selection: trainability. Aaron, Trent, and Peaches break down why prior experience, certifications, and ego mean nothing if you can't take feedback and apply it immediately. Trainability isn't about showing up perfect—it's about learning fast, adapting under pressure, and improving visibly rep to rep. From instructor mind games and deliberate task changes to debrief culture, medical evolution, radios, and real pipeline examples, this episode explains exactly how cadre spot coachable candidates—and why untrainable ones flame out.

Guest Author: Paul GregoryHeadline: The Desire for Greatness: Understanding the MotiveSummary: Decades later, Paul Gregory attributes Lee's motive to a desperate need to prove his significance to the world and his scornful wife. Often underestimated, Lee was a manipulative planner who viewed the assassination as a path to historic grandeur and political relevance.Article: Lee Harvey Oswald was driven by a lifelong belief instilled by his mother that he was special, combined with a desperate need to prove his worth to his wife, Marina, who often ridiculed him as not being a "real man". Far from being a simpleton, Lee was a manipulative planner who viewed the assassination not just as a crime, but as a gateway to a show trial where he could broadcast his political theories and finally achieve the historical importance he craved.

Send us a textThis episode breaks down one of the most overlooked attributes in Air Force Special Warfare: communication. Aaron explains why communication isn't volume or confidence theater—it's message quality, delivery, and active listening, especially when things are chaotic. From JTAC briefs and patient handovers to team problem-solving under fatigue, this is a practical guide to communicating clearly when it actually matters. If you think you'll “figure it out” at selection, you're wrong.

Layman Pascal is a Canadian "feral philosopher" and host of The Integral Stage podcast who has become a central connector and theorist in the overlapping worlds of metamodernism, integral theory, and Game B. His signature contributions—the Metaphysics of Adjacency, the Integration Surplus Model of spirituality, and Metashamanics—offer a sophisticated yet playful bridge between abstract philosophy and embodied transformation. Known for his capacity to hold complexity with humour, Pascal brings both philosophical rigour and playful irreverence to questions of meaning-making in an age of metacrisis.____________In this conversation, we talk Nietzsche, metashamanism, and the ontology and epistemology of entities.We delve into the role of personal experience in shaping philosophical thought, and the implications of neurodiversity in understanding shamanic practices. The dialogue also touches on the nature of imagination, creativity, and the unpredictability of inspiration, exploring our different approaches to life from the moist pragmatism to dry scholarism. ____________

In this Prayer Podcast episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe begins an in-depth exploration of Baruch She'amar—the opening blessing of Pesukei Dezimra (verses of praise)—noting it may take one or two classes to cover fully. He explains the prayer's structure: an introductory section of 10 praises (corresponding to the 10 utterances of creation and 10 Commandments) followed by the actual blessing, with a total of 13 mentions of "Baruch" (representing Hashem's 13 Attributes of Mercy) and 87 words (numerical value of "paz" = finest gold, and acronym for Pesukei Dezimra).The rabbi highlights key practices: reciting Baruch She'amar standing, with song, while men hold the two front tzitzit strings (symbolizing 26 = YKVK); the prayer's origin (likely Men of the Great Assembly, with a heavenly revelation of exact wording); and its deeper meaning—praising Hashem who spoke the world into existence (yesh me'ayin), renews creation constantly (present tense verbs), decrees and fulfills, has compassion on all creatures, rewards the righteous eternally, redeems and rescues, and whose Name is blessed despite His hidden form.Hashem's actions are visible everywhere (modern miracles prove His presence), yet He remains concealed—Baruch She'amar reminds us to see the divine hand in all creation and live with constant gratitude and awe. The episode connects beautifully to the weekly parsha (Va'era), emphasizing Hashem's control and redemption._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Dr. Leonard & June GoldbergDownload the Prayer Podcast Worksheets:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iBVevW1ydyjSeyeO0iCcina7e8vix3Lt?usp=sharingThis episode (Ep. #44) of the Prayer Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Dr. Leonard & June Goldberg!
