On Today's Show: Dennis explores the story of the Tower of Babel and its significance in the Torah. He delves into the biblical account of humanity's attempt to build a tower that reaches the sky, and God's response to their actions. Dennis examines the themes of pride, unity, and the importance of diversity, highlighting the dangers of a unified language and the benefits of a world with many cultures and languages. He also discusses the story of Abraham, who is called by God to leave his family and country, and the significance of this call in the context of the Torah.

For decades, scholars have debated where the Book of Mormon took place. Could it be on the Baja Peninsula? Or in the narrow necks of Central America, or the heartland of the United States? But what if the internal map of the text—where ‘east’ is truly east and seeds from Jerusalem flourish—points to a location largely ignored by archaeologists? In this comprehensive interview, David Rosenvall details how a simple question from his father, a university geography professor, led to a decade of research identifying the Baja Peninsula as the most plausible setting for Lehi's journey. Rosenvall challenges the dominant theories by distinguishing between ‘human geography’—culture that moves with people—and ‘physical geography,’ the immovable features of land, climate, and mineral deposits that he claims uniquely match the Baja landscape. https://youtu.be/o9vbr0j4o0U Check out our other conversations on DNA & Book of Mormon: https://gospeltangents.com/lds_theology/dna-book-of-mormon/ 0:00 Hofmann Explosion 2:55 Background 5:31 BAJA 7:46 Evaluating Meso 19:27 2 Cumorah Theory 24:12 Rusty Swords 30:49 DNA & Book of Mormon 47:20 Strengths of Baja Baja Hypothesis: An Engineering Approach to Scripture In this 2017 series, host Rick Bennett interviews David Rosenvall, the technologist responsible for creating the foundational scriptures.lds.org. Collaborating with his father, a university geography professor, Rosenvall presents a controversial theory that locates the Book of Mormon narrative on the Baja Peninsula. Unlike traditional models based on archaeological artifacts (“human geography”), Rosenvall's approach utilizes an engineering methodology, modeling the text's 33,000 geographical statements against the immovable features of the physical world. Part 1: The Climate Conundrum A single question was posed by David Rosenvall's father: Where would seeds from Jerusalem actually grow? As a geographer, his father noted that the text claims seeds brought from Jerusalem “grew exceedingly” in the Promised Land. • The Climate Argument: Seeds are climate-specific. Jerusalem seeds require a Mediterranean climate (wet winters, dry summers) to flourish, rather than the tropical climate of Mesoamerica or the cold winters of New York. This climatological requirement pointed them directly to the Baja California peninsula. • The Initial Insight: David admits that years prior, while serving as a missionary in Sweden, he had looked at a map and intuitively felt the geography fit Baja, a thought he shelved until his father's research confirmed it decades later. Baja vs. Mesoamerica (Physical vs. Cultural Geography) Rosenvall critiques the dominant Mesoamerican theory (popularized by John L. Sorenson) by distinguishing between human geography (culture, buildings, artifacts) and physical geography (mountains, rivers, coastlines). • Culture Moves, Land Does Not: Rosenvall argues that Mesoamerican theorists have successfully identified cultural similarities (human geography) but struggle with physical geography, often having to rotate maps to make “north” fit “east.” He posits that Nephite culture likely migrated to Mesoamerica after the destruction of the Nephite nation, explaining the cultural remnants found there today. • The Compass Problem: The Baja model accepts the text literally—north is north and east is east—without requiring a directional shift, whereas other models must reconcile the “narrow neck” running east-west rather than north-south. Part 3: Rusted Swords, Elephants, and the Two Cumorahs Rosenvall addresses specific scientific and historical challenges to the Book of Mormon, arguing that Baja solves problems that other theories cannot. • Evidence of Steel: While Mesoamerican theories rely on obsidian (which does not rust), the Book of Mormon describes swords that “cankered with rust.” Rosenvall notes that Baja museums display ancient, rusted metal swords and knives found in local burials, and the peninsula contains the necessary raw deposits of iron, gold, and silver. • The Animals: Addressing the criticism regarding elephants and horses, Rosenvall points to the La Brea Tar Pits (just north of Baja). He argues these pits contain every animal mentioned in the Book of Mormon, including elephants and camels, proving their biological plausibility in the region. • Trek to New York: Rosenvall proposes a “Two Hill” theory. The final battles occurred at a Hill Cumorah in Baja. Moroni then spent 36 years traveling northward to bury the plates in New York (the “hill north of Manchester”). Rosenvall calculates that Moroni would only have to walk the distance from Provo to Ogden once a year to make the journey, possibly dedicating the temple site in Manti, Utah, along the way. Part 4: Solving the DNA Problem (The Asian Connection) Rosenvall offers a unique solution to the lack of Middle Eastern DNA in Native American populations by focusing on the Book of Ether. • The Jaredite Route: He theorizes that the Jaredites traveled from the Tower of Babel through China, launching vessels from the eastern seaboard of Asia. Ocean currents would naturally carry them to the North American west coast in roughly 345 days, matching the text's timeline. • Asian Ancestry: Because the Jaredites (and potentially others from Asia) arrived thousands of years before Lehi and dispersed across the continent, the dominant DNA profile of the Americas is Asian. The Lehite colony was a small, isolated group whose genetic signature was likely diluted or lost over centuries of intermixing. Part 5: The “Narrow Neck” and Isolation Strongest geographical arguments for the Baja Peninsula: isolation and line-of-sight. • A Land Apart: The text frequently describes the Nephites as being isolated from other civilizations. Baja is naturally isolated by the Sea of Cortez, distinct from the mainland where other cultures (like the Jaredite descendants) might have been spreading. • Visualizing the Neck: Rosenvall identifies a specific location in Baja where high mountains allow a person to see the ocean on both sides—a physical reality that matches the “narrow neck” and “narrow strip” descriptions in the scripture. • Chaparral Terrain: He argues the “wilderness” described in the text matches the Baja “chaparral” (dense, thorny brush) where it is difficult to follow tracks, rather than a jungle environment. Rosenvall concludes by directing listeners to his website, achoiceland.com, emphasizing that while geography is fascinating, the spiritual intent of the book remains paramount.

This episode is the first Noriko's Philosophy Playground of 2026 and explores The Tower of Babel painted by Pieter Bruegel the Elder.Noriko reflects on seeing the large version of The Tower of Babel in Vienna at the Kunsthistorisches Museum. Inspired by the painting, she discusses human ambition, limits, and the role of language.The biblical story tells of people who once shared a single language and tried to build a tower reaching the heavens. Their excessive ambition led to confusion of language, loss of cooperation, and the collapse of the project.Bruegel's painting shows countless workers focused only on their own tasks, without seeing the whole structure. Parts of the tower are already collapsing, symbolising miscommunication and lack of coordination.Noriko connects this to modern life and language learning, asking three philosophical questions:How important is it to see the big picture?How much ambition is healthy for humans?What does it really mean for language to “connect” people?She concludes that true communication is not just grammar or vocabulary, but the attitude of trying to understand others. Language learning, she suggests, is ultimately about understanding people and the world through words.フィロソフィー（philosophy）プレイグラウンド（playground）プロジェクト（project）コミュニケーション（communication）インターネット（internet）バージョン（version）ディーテール（detail）ビジョン（vision）アプローチ（approach）コーディネーション（coordination）野心（やしん） – ambition限界（げんかい） – limit言語（げんご） – language言葉（ことば） – words混乱（こんらん） – confusion協力（きょうりょく） – cooperation理解（りかい） – understanding全体像（ぜんたいぞう） – big picture誤解（ごかい） – misunderstanding傲慢（ごうまん） – arrogance本質（ほんしつ） – essence理想化（りそうか） – idealization労働者（ろうどうしゃ） – workers崩れる（くずれる） – to collapse態度・姿勢（たいど・しせい） – attitude / mindset

The conversation delves into the idea of a technologically advanced pre-flood world, the legacy of the Nephilim, and the cyclical nature of human history. The hosts discuss how cultural myths about the flood reflect a shared narrative across civilizations and consider the future of humanity in light of ancient knowledge and technology. In this engaging conversation, the hosts delve into ancient narratives, exploring the implications of pre-flood technology, the strategies of deception employed by Satan, and the prophetic insights regarding the Nephilim. They discuss the historical roots of UFO phenomena, the complex nature of angels, and the potential return of giants in modern times. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of understanding cosmic realities and the significance of meaningful conversations in expanding one's perspective on spirituality and existence.====================
In this episode, we dive into Moses chapter 8 and Genesis 6–11, exploring the powerful stories surrounding Noah, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel through a Latter-day Saint lens. These chapters highlight a world struggling with increasing wickedness, yet still touched by prophetic warnings, covenants, and divine mercy. Viewers will gain insight into how the Joseph Smith Translation in the book of Moses expands the biblical account, especially in emphasizing the role of preaching, repentance, and moral agency before the Flood. The discussion connects these ancient events to modern discipleship, asking what it means to remain faithful in a corrupt society. Special attention is given to the women mentioned or implied in these chapters—such as the “daughters of men” in Genesis 6, Noah's wife, and the wives of his sons—who are often overlooked but are essential to the story of preservation and covenant continuity. Their presence reminds us that families, marriages, and righteous women were central to God's plan to carry humanity forward after the Flood. By noticing these women in the text, this episode invites viewers to read more carefully and see how both men and women participate in God's work across generations, helping build a bridge from the world before the Flood to the renewed world that followed.
After the flood, the LORD commanded the descendants of Noah to multiply and fill the earth. In rebellion against this Word of God, people in the plain of Shinar all settled together and began to build a tower to make a name for themselves. Their tower remained puny before the LORD, who came down and confused their language in order to accomplish His purpose of spreading people throughout the earth. The place's name, Babel, recalled this work of the LORD. He has now brought unity to languages, not by making them all the same, but by causing the one Gospel to be preached in all of them. Rev. David Vandercook, pastor at Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church in Crawford, NE and Redeemer Evangelical Lutheran Church in Harrison, NE, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 11:1-9. To learn more about Bethlehem and Redeemer Lutheran, visit www.belccrawford.org and relcharrison.org. “In the Beginning” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies Genesis. The first book of Moses sets the stage for God's entire story of salvation. As we learn the beginning of the story, God prepares us to receive the fulfillment of the story: Jesus Christ, the Offspring of the woman who has crushed our enemy's head. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org
In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Genesis 6–11 and Moses 8 and return to one of the most familiar stories in scripture, not to focus on the storm, but to see the heart of God in the middle of it. This lesson invites us to read the flood through cross vision and notice the mercy woven throughout the chapter. God grieves, God provides an ark with room, God gives light in the darkness, and God remembers Noah when the waters feel like they are prevailing. If you are in a season where you feel like you are treading water and wondering when rest will come, this episode is for you.

Corren los ultimo meses de la segunda Guerra mundial, y a un pueblo en el sur de Italia, llega un destacamento militar nazi comandado por un carismático capitán. Willen Wunt, el capitán Wunt se alojará en la mejor casa del pueblo, la del médico, que vive con su única hija, Lucía. A través del testimonio del militar, que escribe cada día en un cuaderno y los recuerdos del médico, vamos reconstruyendo una historia de guerra, amor y dudas que completa el testimonio de Lucía y que firma en su nueva novela María Dubón.El museo Guggenheim en Bilbao es el ejemplo paradigmático de como un centro de arte cambia de forma radical la fisonomía y la forma de vida de una ciudad y se convierte en motor de ese cambio. Siguiendo ese modelo en las últimas décadas se han inaugurado con mejor o peor fortuna museos en todo el mundo que buscan generar ese mismo efecto. El tema se analiza desde mañana en el CDAN en Huesca, en un interesante congreso del que hoy hablamos en La Torre de Babel.
CPXL Season 2 • Episode 3: The Abrahamic Covenant — God's Promise, God's People, God's Plan | Genesis 12, 15, 17After the scattering at Babel, God begins something new through one man and one family. In this episode of CPXL, we explore the Abrahamic Covenant—God's foundational promise that sets the trajectory for the entire biblical story.Walking through Genesis 12, 15, and 17, we see that God's covenant is entirely His initiative—grounded in faith, not performance. From Abram's call to trust without seeing the full picture, to God alone cutting the covenant, this conversation reveals God's heart to restore, bless, and redeem the nations.The episode also points forward to Jesus, the promised descendant through whom the blessing to all nations is fulfilled—showing how faith, not lineage, defines God's people.In This Episode:God's call to Abram and the meaning of covenantWhy faith is central to God's promisesHow the covenant expands in Genesis 15 and 17How Abraham's story points forward to JesusWhat it means to live as people of the covenant todayKey Scriptures:Genesis 12:1–3Genesis 15Genesis 17Galatians 3Romans 4As Genesis narrows from nations to one family, we're invited to see ourselves within God's unfolding covenant story—and to consider where He may be calling us to trust Him without seeing the full picture.About CPXLCPXL exists to equip and encourage Everyday Missionaries to Love God, Grow Up, Serve All, and Live Sent.

Las obras de arte esconden, en ocasiones, mensajes ocultos que los historiadores del arte descifran gracias al contexto histórico, la documentación y la conexión con otras obras que aportan claves para comprender. Celia Fontana Calvo, profesora e investigadora en la universidad de Monterrey emprende la aventura de analizar la iconografía de la enigmática capilla de San Victoria de San Juan de la Peña, una capilla funeraria gótica en un claustro románico y plagada, por ejemplo, de caracoles o seres mitad animal mitad humano tallados en la piedra. Pero esto es solo un pequeño detalle de todo lo que esta capilla esconde y que contamos esta tarde en La torre de Babel.Y si San Juan de la Peña simboliza el origen del reino de Aragón y su archivo histórico, disgregado tras la desamortización de Mendizábal es una fuente documental extraordinaria para conocer nuestro pasado, el Archivo de la Administración de la Comunidad Autónoma representa el presente. Nace con la autonomía aragonesa por lo que apenas ha cumplido los cuarenta años, pero es fundamental para conocer cómo se ha construido el Aragón actual desde el punto de vista institucional y administrativo.

Revelation, Submission, Sacrifice by Autumn Dickson For this week, we get to read more about Adam and Eve and their posterity. While reading about this posterity, we find a really beautiful summary of how to live. It is so simple and yet so profound. Moses 6:3 And God revealed himself unto Seth, and he rebelled not, but offered an acceptable sacrifice, like unto his brother Abel. And to him also was born a son, and he called his name Enos. I want to take it one phrase at a time. God revealed Himself to Seth. Seth didn't rebel. Seth offered an acceptable sacrifice like his brother did. Though this is about the personal life of Seth, there is a pattern that all of us can follow. First, God revealed Himself. It is not enough to try and interpret the bible perfectly. You can't. It's not possible for man to interpret it correctly even if it had been translated perfectly. God has to reveal Himself and the truth concerning why we are here and how we get back. You can't go to school and have other people teach you about God because they have studied a ton. No matter how hard you think or how long you ponder, it is insufficient unless God chooses to reveal Himself. He does this through a variety of ways. He reveals Himself through His prophets. He teaches us as we're reading the bible. He teaches us as we listen to other people, but we have to remember that He is the one who gives us the information. Then comes the next part. We decide what to do with it. Seth rebelled not. Honestly, it reminds me of something that I read about the Tower of Babel. One of the reasons that God was so frustrated with the people in relation to the Tower of Babel was because He had told them how to reach Him. These people were descendants of Noah's sons after the flood. Noah walked with God, and so it's easy to assume that these descendants had been given a knowledge of how to form a relationship with God. We do not know exactly what this looked like. We know that after Moses, there were more extensive ordinances contained in the Law of Moses that helped the people reach for God. In our day, we likewise make covenants and perform ordinances in order to reach Him and develop a relationship with Him. I'm not sure what it looked like in Noah's day, but these people had a prophet and it was likely that they had oral traditions to lead them along. Unfortunately, they rebelled. They didn't want to reach God in that way. They wanted to do it how they wanted to do it, and they ended up with chaos and confusion. Through modern-day prophets, God has revealed how we can draw closer to Him. These avenues are not exclusive; they're available to everyone who wants them. Some have had incredible experiences with the gospel but have chosen to only accept some avenues of closeness. Some believe they don't need these extra things in order to draw closer to Christ rather than gratefully receiving any options He gives us to think of Him and follow Him. I think of Cain and Abel. Cain was mad that God didn't accept his crops even though God had asked him for a lamb originally. Cain only wanted to give what Cain wanted to give. And when God didn't accept it, he was angry. Interestingly enough, God didn't ask for a lamb for fun. It was very specific and meant to help Cain understand Christ. Cain missed the memo. If you've had good experiences with the gospel, I can promise that accepting all of the gospel will only bring more goodness. Don't rebel against it. Give it a chance, soften your own heart and see if God doesn't bless you. Then there is the last portion of this pattern that we'll talk about today. Seth offered an acceptable sacrifice like his brother. I love this part. We can offer acceptable sacrifices like our Brother. There is much to be said of sacrifice, but I want to focus on one specific principle here. The Lord asks for specific sacrifices. There are general ways that we draw closer to Christ through ordinances and covenants, but there will also be very personalized sacrifices that the Lord asks us to make. Christ had a very tailored sacrifice to give. It was perfectly picked just for Him. There are very tailored sacrifices we will be asked to make. They are tailored in two ways: how we can give and how they can bless us. Some of them are because God gave us gifts and expects us to use them to bless others. In ancient times, the oldest brothers received an extra portion in order to take care of the mother and sisters. Each of us have received some kind of specific extra portion, spiritual gifts that are not given to everyone. We are expected to take care of those who don't have what we have. It is completely fair for Heavenly Father to ask us to give when He has given us more precisely for that purpose. We have also been given a responsibility to make specific sacrifices because of how they will bless us. They will mold us to be more like the Savior in the exact ways that we need. Just like the lamb wasn't random, our sacrifices don't need to feel random. They can refine us. I got pregnant 3 months after having a baby. My fifth child was born when my oldest was just six years old. I despise being pregnant. I'm grateful for it. My children are my greatest blessing, but I can't begin to describe just how much I lose myself when I'm pregnant. Conner was out on the east coast every other week for work. I was overwhelmed and sick. My body was destroyed, and I still had a tiny baby that needed me so much. I had three other kids who also needed me, and I still felt the Lord telling me that I needed to keep sharing my testimony of Christ. There were a million lessons learned through this specific trial given to me. The Lord needed me to change in specific ways in order to step into the life I wanted for myself and my family. I let go and let my kids step up in ways that were powerful for them, a beautiful blessing that I would have never voluntarily given over. I miraculously finished my work and still got a desperately needed nap almost every day. Both of these specific lessons have set me up in exactly what I want for my life. Most importantly, I learned that God really is on my side. When I first found out I was pregnant again, I felt utterly betrayed. Believe it or not, we had taken some pretty intense measures to prevent pregnancy. This wasn't a mistake on our part. It was a definitive choice for the Lord. I had told Him that I wanted to wait a bit. There have been numerous times in my life that the Lord has chosen different for me than I chose for myself. I grumbled and fought it just like anyone else. Getting pregnant again and losing myself for 18 months instead of 9 months felt like more than I could bear. For the first time, I felt truly betrayed by God. I felt like He had completely ignored everything I had wanted for myself. I felt like He had ignored what I needed, that He didn't care what I needed. He was going to choose what He was going to choose. I knew logically that wasn't the case. I had experiences with God and knew He loved me, and maybe that's why it had been so painful. I had trusted Him, and this felt too far. It took some time, but I learned the tailored lesson He sent me. I turned my heart around and accepted the sacrifice that had been asked of me and just like with any sacrifice, it was for me. He was trying to bless me, and He did. I thought I trusted Him before. It multiplied after this last baby. The Lord tailors our sacrifices for us, and in the end, we make them acceptable by putting our heart into it. I testify that the patterns of the Lord are simple. I testify that He can guide our individual details in the midst of those grand patterns. I testify of a Lord who made an ultimate sacrifice and set an example for how we can draw closer to God. I testify that the scriptures can teach us of these patterns, and if we choose to accept them, He blesses us more than we can imagine. Autumn Dickson was born and raised in a small town in Texas.

Today we are continuing our annual sermon series, New Year Essentials. These sermons address subjects to which we must repeatedly return for the glory of God and the transformation of our lives, individually and corporately. These are different sermons, taking different angles, on issues we need to come back to again and again. Today, we are freshly reminded that Jesus' church has a unique opportunity to show the world that true ethnic harmony is only found in Him. Audio | Notes
Genesis 11 // Jonathan NeefThis sermon covers the building of the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11, a pivotal moment where human pride collided with divine authority. We examine the transition from a world with one language to the sudden diversity of tongues, exploring why God viewed this unified human project as a threat. By looking at the heart of the builders, we learn about the dangers of seeking to make a name for ourselves rather than honoring the name of God, and how this event explains the origin of different nations and cultures.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49551513 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2542/responses/new26.01.25

Ever wonder why certain fantasy books instantly click for you… while others just don't?It might not be the book. It might be you.In this episode of Fantasy for the Ages, I'm matching fantasy book recommendations to common personality types, using the Myers-Briggs framework as a fun (and surprisingly accurate) way to think about reading taste.We all see the world a little differently—and that shapes the stories we're drawn to. Some readers crave structure and epic moral weight. Others want emotional depth, wild imagination, or nonstop momentum. Today, I take 10 of the most common personality types and pair each with two fantasy series that align beautifully with how those readers think, feel, and engage with story.Whether you're duty-driven, big-picture strategic, emotionally intuitive, or just here for the chaos and fun—there's a fantasy series here that fits you.

What does God want? It sounds like a simple question—but the Bible's answer is far bigger, deeper, and more personal than most people realize. In this opening episode of a new teaching series inspired by What Does God Want?, Tracy walks listeners through the opening chapters of Scripture to uncover God's original intention for humanity. Long before religion, rules, or rebellion, God wanted a family—sons and daughters made in His image, created to live in His presence and partner with Him in His work. This episode explores: What it really means to be made "in the image of God" Why God created humanity with freedom—even knowing the cost The role of Eden, identity, and vocation in God's design How rebellion entered the story and fractured God's vision Why evil exists—and why God didn't abandon His plan How all of this connects directly to spiritual warfare and deception today Far from a detached theology lesson, this teaching lays a foundation for understanding who you are, why your life has value, and why the battle for truth has always centered on God's family. This is Part One in a multi-week series. In upcoming episodes, Tracy will explore the second and third rebellions of Scripture—Genesis 6 and the Tower of Babel—and how they shape the world we're living in now. If you've ever wondered who God really is, what He wants from humanity, or why the story of Scripture feels like a war for belonging—this series is for you.

El concepto de museo universal, como el Louvre, el Museo Británico o el Metropolitan, se crearon aprovechando las posibilidades que un mundo colonial ofrecía a las grandes potencias que aprovechaban su poder en tierras dominadas para hacerse con piezas de su patrimonio artístico que hoy son la estrella de sus colecciones. Con el paso de los años y los cambios en los mapas y la sociedad, las voces que piden la restitución de estas piezas son cada vez más comunes. Porque, ¿de quién son las obras de arte?Catherine Titi y Katia Fach Gómez, expertas en derecho internacional intentan responder a esta pregunta que navega entra el derecho internacional, los intereses de los museos y el concepto de identidad y de restitución moral que es parte importantísima de la ecuación. Ellas analizan el recorrido de algunas piezas míticas en un libro fascinante, Arte Secuestrado, del que hoy hablamos en la Torre de Babel.

In this in-depth theological conversation, Tony sits down with Ed Mabrie to challenge common assumptions about spiritual warfare and end-times prophecy. Ed explains why the fallen Elohim are not unified under Satan, but operate as rival powers competing for control, driven by addiction to worship and the desire to overturn God's plan. The discussion moves through Babel, Psalm 82, the Nephilim, and Revelation, reframing war and global chaos as the result of supernatural conflict rather than human ambition alone. Ed also outlines why deception is Satan's primary weapon, not raw power, and why the Church acts as the restrainer holding back the Antichrist. Throughout the conversation, we are reminded that believers carry real authority in Christ, authority that is rarely taught and often unused. This is a dense but grounding conversation meant to sharpen discernment and reset how Christians view the unseen battle shaping history.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

AI, Aliens, and the antichrist are some buzzwords we need to look into today as Christians! Elon Musk has some wild words that warn about the dangers of AI and how it's essentially summoning the demon! Bishop Alan DiDio, comes on to answer these bone-chilling questions: - What should Christians do about AI? - Will AI benefit the AntiChrist? - Are Aliens real? Is the government hiding their existence? - Why are media personnel and government officials calling them something different now? This is a throwback to one of the most popular episodes of I Like Birds. Bishop Alan Didio drops wisdom about AI being an all-knowing technology that resembles what we saw during the "Tower of Babel" times. He encourages Christians to utilize it to spread the gospel. Powerful conversation that is still reaching people all over the world. Get Alan DiDio's book here:
Genesis 10:1–11:26 | Nations, Babel, and God's DirectionIn this episode of CPXL, Andy Addis and Eric Franklin are joined by Ryan Booth for the first three-pastor conversation of Season 2 as they walk through Genesis 10–11—the account of Noah's sons, the spread of nations, and the Tower of Babel.Genesis 10 shows how humanity repopulates the earth after the flood, forming diverse nations and families. Genesis 11 reveals how pride and misplaced unity fracture that diversity at Babel. Together, these chapters remind us that while humanity multiplies, moves, and sometimes rebels, God remains sovereignly at work—directing history toward His redemptive purposes.The conversation explores why the “Table of Nations” matters, what Babel teaches us about pride and unity, and how God's scattering is not only judgment, but also loving direction. The episode closes by pointing forward to the genealogy of Shem and the emergence of Abram—evidence that God's plan continues even through a fractured world.In This Episode:Why Genesis 10 matters more than we thinkUnity, diversity, and God's design for the nationsThe heart issue behind the Tower of BabelHow God redirects humanity without abandoning His promiseThe hopeful line leading toward AbramKey Scriptures:Genesis 10:1–32Genesis 11:1–26Genesis 1:28Deuteronomy 32:8Acts 17:26–27Hebrews 11:8–12As Genesis shifts from nations to one family, we're invited to see how God works through history—and through ours.CPXL exists to equip and encourage Everyday Missionaries to Love God, Grow Up, Serve All, and Live Sent.Follow along on the Reading Plan with us: crosspointchurch.com/readingplanAbout CrossPoint ChurchCrossPoint is one church in many places, striving to reach the state of Kansas by catalyzing God's people to be Everyday Missionaries.

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the workplace faster than any innovation in recent history. Jobs are changing. Technology is accelerating. Anxiety and excitement live side by side. So how should followers of Jesus respond? In this message, Pastor Tom VanAntwerp explores the future of work through the lens of Scripture, connecting today's AI revolution with the ancient story of the Tower of Babel. Rather than rejecting technology or placing our trust in it, this sermon invites us to rediscover God's calling for our work—and our humanity. In this message you'll hear: Why new innovations often tempt us to replace trust in God What the Tower of Babel teaches us about technology and pride How AI can be a tool without becoming an idol Why work remains deeply human, spiritual, and formative How God's mercy continues to call us forward—even after failure As technology evolves, one thing remains true: you are not replaceable, and God has a future for you and your work.
Send us a textWhat if the cross closed the heavenly courtroom—but the accusations didn't stop ringing in your ears? We dive into a spirited, respectful debate about Satan's role after Calvary and why the living Christ's intercession still matters for ordinary believers navigating shame, doubt, and spiritual warfare.We start by clarifying terms: atonement is finished, once for all, yet Scripture speaks of a present High Priest who advocates and mediates. One side argues Revelation 12 signals the accuser's eviction from heaven when Christ ascended, ending legal indictments against the saints. The other side points out that Satan's accusing nature persists until his final destruction, which explains the New Testament's warnings and the comfort of a Savior who “ever lives to make intercession.” Along the way we revisit the big storyline—from Babel's scattered nations and the devil's deceit to Jesus binding the strong man and handing keys to his disciples—showing how the gospel unlocks captive peoples.Together we test how to read “accused” in the past tense without flattening the ongoing reality of lies, temptations, and charges that batter the conscience. We distinguish the once-for-all sacrifice from the ongoing ministry of Christ: not a repeat atonement, but a living representation that secures access, preserves assurance, and silences every charge with his righteousness. Job's story threads through our talk as a portrait of suffering and ultimate vindication, reminding us that the Christian life is contested ground, and that our defense is not our performance, but a Person.If you've ever wondered what Jesus is doing for you right now—or felt spiritually “on trial” without words to answer—this conversation will steady your steps. Listen, open your Bible, and join us as we pursue clarity with charity. If this helped you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs encouragement, and leave a review telling us where you land on the question.Support the showBE PROVOKED AND BE PERSUADED!
Saturday, 17 January 2026 And He sent away the multitude, got into the boat, and came to the region of Magdala. Matthew 15:39 Note: You can listen to today's commentary courtesy of our friends at the “Bible in Ten” podcast. (Click Here to listen) You can also read this commentary, scrolling with music, courtesy of our friends at “Discern the Bible” on YouTube. (Click Here to listen), or at Rumble (Click Here to listen). “And having dismissed the crowds, He in-stepped into the boat, and He came to the borders of Magdala” (CG). In the previous verse, it was noted that there were four thousand men, besides women and children, who comprised the multitudes Jesus fed. With that portion of the narrative complete, and to close out the chapter, Matthew next notes, “And having dismissed the crowds, He in-stepped into the boat.” They have been on the eastern side of the Sea of Galilee. With this cycle of attending to a Gentile woman in the allotments of Tyre and Sidon noted, followed by a time in the Gentile-led eastern regions near the Decapolis completed, He got into a boat, “and He came to the borders of Magdala.” This is a location not named this way anywhere else in Scripture. Some manuscripts note the location as Magadan, meaning Megiddo, but that is incorrect based on Matthew 16:5, which notes they are still in the region of the lake. Rather, the town Magdala in Hebrew is Migdal-el, Tower of God, a city of Naphtali recorded in Joshua 19:38. This is also known as Al-Majdal (Mejdel) on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee, north of Tiberias. Mark 8:10 notes that when they got in the boat, they came to the allotments of Dalmanutha. Saying it this way, there is no contradiction to be found. Just as Jesus went to the “allotments” of Tyre and Sidon, meaning the surrounding areas, in Matthew 15:21, so they went to Magdala in the allotments, meaning the surrounding areas, of Dalmanutha. Life application: Chapter 15 of Matthew gives a picture of what is going on in the world from the time Jesus fulfilled the law until the rapture. The verses, though literally occurring at the time of Jesus, point to truths after the completion of Jesus' ministry. The New Covenant is now what God is doing in the world. Israel as a whole, however, rejected that. Though they no longer observe the Law of Moses, they remain bound to it. During this dispensation, they are spiritually led by rabbis, both in their writings in the Talmud as well as in their cultural and religious life. These are reflected by the scribes and Pharisees who came from Jerusalem (verse 1) to challenge Jesus. Paul explains in Galatians 4:21-31 that the earthly Jerusalem reflects them and their teaching. The main point for now says – “But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar— 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children— 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.” Galatians 4:23-26 In verses 2-9, Jesus explains the state of Israel at this time, living by the laws of men rather than by the law of God. After the introduction of the New Covenant, the law of God is not the Law of Moses. Rather, that is fulfilled. At this time, religious Israel draws near to the Lord with their lips, but their hearts, because of their rejection of Jesus, are far away from Him. In verse 11, Jesus stated that what goes into the mouth does not defile. Rather, what comes out of it does. Though that was a truth concerning the traditions of these elders, it is a truth that is spiritually seen in Israel to this day. They refuse to proclaim Jesus. This is their defilement. But what does Paul say concerning this? In Romans 10, he says – “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach): 9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:8-13 The only thing that can cleanse a person from sin is Jesus. Anything else, meaning any other proclamation, defiles that person. As such, Jesus says in verse 14 to let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind, and both will fall into a pit. In verse 15, Jesus reexplained to dull Peter (later, the Apostle to the Jews) the matter of the heart and what it is that causes defilement. While Israel remains in their state of defilement because of their oral proclamations, something else takes place. This is seen in verse 21, where Jesus “went out from there,” meaning from the Jewish people to the allotments of Tyre and Sidon, a Gentile area. Tyre (Hebrew: Tsor) signifies Rock. While Israel abandoned their Rock, the Gentiles received Him. That this is speaking of Christ is seen, for example, in Deuteronomy 32:32, where it says, “For their rock is not like our Rock.” There are those who are confident in their rock (tsur), and yet their rock is not the Lord who is the Rock (tsur). Sidon (Hebrew: Tsidon) signifies Fishery. It is a place for catching fish. Everyone is like a fish. When Jesus said to Simon and Andrew that they would be fishers of men, He meant that men are like fish to be caught. While in this area (verse 22), a Canaanite woman came to Jesus and begged for compassion for her demon-possessed daughter. Canaan signifies Humbled, Humiliated, or even Subdued. She pictures those of faith who have humbled themselves before the word of Christ. The issue is the daughter. In Scripture, a son or a daughter is representative of the state of something. A “son of death,” for example, is a person deserving of death. That is his state. A daughter, in this case, is the state of a group of people, such as “daughter of Jerusalem,” “daughter of Tarshish,” etc. What is the state of the Daughter of the Humbled who are also Gentiles? Jesus said in verse 24 that He had come “if not to the sheep, the ‘having been lost' – House Israel.” Despite there being a New Covenant, with whom was that covenant made? The answer is found in both Jeremiah and Hebrews – “Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah.” Jeremiah 31:31 The early church did not understand that the word was to go to the Gentiles. That is a major subject found in Acts. It is representative of the disciples' comments found previously in verse 23 when they told Jesus to dismiss her. It literally took an act of God to get them to see that the New Covenant included Gentiles, first with the Ethiopian eunuch and then the house of Cornelius. Jesus' calling, though, to redeem the House of Judah and Israel, is inclusive of the Gentiles of faith, as seen in this account. It is something prophesied in Isaiah 49:6, but which is revealed in typology here. The woman was told that it wasn't “good to take the children's bread and cast to the puppies.” In the Bible, dogs represent Gentiles. That is seen in the Caleb series of sermons. Caleb, kalev, is from kelev, dog. It is also seen in the account of Gideon and his men, who lapped like dogs, a typological picture dealing with the Gentiles. The woman didn't argue Jesus' point. Instead, she noted that “even the puppies – he eats from the crumbs, the ‘falling from their master's table.” Jesus thus remarked concerning her great faith, something evidenced in the Gentile world. At that time, it noted the child was cured. Salvation, in fact, is also directed to the Gentiles. They are brought into the commonwealth of Israel (Ephesians 2:12). From there, verse 29 said of Jesus that “He went near the Sea of the Galilee, and having ascended to the mountain, He sat there.” The Galilee has previously been explained as “the Liberty.” It is a picture of freedom from sin. As sin stems from a violation of law, it ultimately signifies freedom from law. A mountain in the Bible represents a lot of something gathered. In typology, it is synonymous with a large but centralized group of people. Though it is only stated in Mark, the last area noted was the Decapolis, a Gentile controlled area. Thus, this is typologically referring to a large but centralized group (meaning under Jesus) of Gentile people. The Canaanite woman already established that, but this is an extension of the thought, explaining the result of the dispensation of the Gentiles. In other words, “What will happen in the world once it is established that Gentiles are to be included in the New Covenant?” In verses 30 and 31, multitudes came to Jesus for healing, so many that they were strewn about Him. It is reflective of the broken Gentile world coming to Christ for healing and salvation. As many came, He healed them so that “they glorified the God of Israel.” As noted at that time, the term is unique in the New Testament. It suggested the presence of Gentiles on the mountain, but it typologically asserts this fact. Paul's ministry literally shouts out the parallel to this thought in Matthew – “Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.” Acts 19:11, 12 Was the God of Israel glorified through this? The answer is found in Romans – “Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers, 9 and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: ‘For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, And sing to Your name.'” Romans 15:8, 9 And... “For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, to make the Gentiles obedient— 19 in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.” Romans 15:18, 19 In verses 32-38, the feeding of the four thousand is recorded. Jesus said they had been with Him three days. In Scripture, three “stands for that which is solid, real, substantial, complete, and entire. ... Hence the number three points us to what is real, essential, perfect, substantial, complete, and Divine.” Bullinger The time these people have been with Jesus speaks of a divine fullness, something reflected in Romans 11:25, “that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.” It goes right back to the state of Israel, noted in Matthew 15:14, where the blind are leading the blind. While Israel is blinded, the blind of the Gentiles (Matthew 15:31) are brought to sight. The miracle of the bread (think of Jesus, the Bread of Life) and fish (a word which signifies “increase” in Hebrew) speaks of the immense harvest. There were seven loaves, the number of spiritual perfection, and a few tiddlers. However, they were enough to feed the multitude of four thousand. The number is a product of four and tens. Four is the number of material creation, the world number. It speaks of the entirety of the world hearing the gospel, just as Jesus said it would. Ten is the number where nothing is wanting, and the whole cycle is complete. The entire world of the Gentiles will be evangelized before the end comes. To demonstrate the immense harvest that will be realized in the church age, the baskets of fragments were collected, totaling seven large baskets. Notice the difference from the feeding of the five thousand – “And they ate all, and they gorged, and they lifted the superabounding pieces – twelve handbaskets full. 21And those eating, they were about five thousand men, besides women and children.” “And they ate all, and they gorged, and the superabounding of the fragments they lifted – seven hampers full. 38And those eating, they were four thousand men, besides women and children.” Whereas a remnant of the twelve tribes of Israel represented by the twelve small handbaskets (Greek: kophinos) was collected, there will be an immense harvest of the seven churches (as defined in Revelation 2 & 3), represented by the seven large hampers (Greek: spuris). The chapter ended with a location only mentioned here in Scripture, saying of Jesus, “And having dismissed the crowds, He in-stepped into the boat, and He came to the borders of Magdala.” The town Magdala in Hebrew is Migdal-el, Tower of God, a city of Naphtali recorded in Joshua 19:38. Migdal El is contrasted to the tower of man, meaning Babel and all that accompanies her. Thus, this is implicitly a picture of the ending of the church age, where believers are delivered from the Babylon of the end times recorded in Revelation. To understand why these conclusions have been made, one should refer to the descriptions of these locations found in the Old Testament sermons given by the Superior Word. Each location, number, or other reference has been drawn from the information already recorded there. Thus, the typology is not new. It has already been seen and has been reused without change, confirming that this analysis of Matthew 15 is sound. Lord God, Your word is beyond amazing. It is a lifeline for the soul caught in despair. It is a treasure for the seeker of riches. It is a guide for the path of our lives. And Lord, it is so much more. It is so glorious to enter into its pages and find rest for our souls in the Person of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Thank You for this precious word. Amen. Matthew 15 15 Then they came to Jesus from Jerusalem, scribes and Pharisees, saying, 2“Through what – Your disciples, they sidestep the tradition of the elders? For they wash not their hands when they may eat bread.” 3And answering, He said, to them, “Through what – also you, you sidestep the ‘God's commandment' through your tradition? 4For God, He enjoined, saying, ‘You honor your father and your mother,' and the ‘disparaging father or mother,' death – he expires!' 5And you, you say, ‘Whoever, he should say to father or mother, “Gift – whatever if from me you should benefit.”' 6And no, not he should honor his father or his mother. And you invalidated God's commandment through your tradition. 7Hypocrites! Well, Isaiah, he prophesied concerning you, saying, 8‘He neared Me, this people – the mouth, And the lips – he honors Me, And their heart, it distances far from Me. 9And vainly they revere Me, Teaching instructions – men's injunctions.'” 10And having summoned the crowd, He said to them, “You hear and comprehend! 11Not the ‘entering into the mouth' it profanes the man, but the ‘proceeding from the mouth,' this, it profanes the man.” 12Then His disciples, having come near, they said to Him, “You have known that the Pharisees, having heard the saying, they stumbled!” 13And having answered, He said, “Every planting that not He planted, My heavenly Father, it will be uprooted. 14You leave them! They are blind, blind-conductors. And blind, if they should conduct, both – they will fall into a pit.” 15And Peter, having answered, he said to Him, “You expound to us this parable.” 16And Jesus, He said, “And yet, you, you are unintelligent! 17Not yet you grasp that all, the ‘entering into the mouth,' into the stomach it contains, and into the john it ejects? 18And those proceeding from the mouth, it comes from the heart, and those, it commonizes the man. 19For from the heart, they come: evil meanderings, murders, adulteries, harlotries, thefts, false-witnessings, blasphemies. 20These, they are, the ‘defiling the man,' but to eat with unwashed hands, not it defiles the man.” 21And having departed thence, Jesus, He withdrew to the allotments – Tyre and Sidon. 22And you behold! A Canaanite woman from those same borders, having come, she cried to Him, saying, “You compassionate me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter, she is demon possessed-badly.” 23And He answered not a word. And having approached, His disciples, they entreated Him, saying, “You dismiss her! For she cries after us.” 24And answering, He said, “Not, I was sent, if not to the sheep, the ‘having been lost' – House Israel.” 25And having come, she worshipped Him, saying, “Lord, You rush-relieve me!” 26And answering, He said, “It is not good to take the children's bread and cast to the puppies.” 27And she said, “Yes, Lord. And even the puppies – he eats from the crumbs, the ‘falling from their master's table.'” 28Then, Jesus answering, He said to her, “O! Woman, your faith is great! It become to you as you determine.” And she's cured, her daughter, from that hour. 29And having departed thence, Jesus, He went near the Sea of the Galilee, and having ascended to the mountain, He sat there. 30And they came to Him, great crowds, having with them lame, cripples, blind, mutes, and others – many, and they strewed them near Jesus' feet, and He healed them. 31So too, the crowds marveled, seeing mutes speaking, cripples healthy, lame walking, and blind seeing, and they glorified the God of Israel. 32And Jesus, having summoned His disciples, He said, “I gut-wrench upon the crowd because already three days they bivouac with Me, and naught they have that they may eat. And I wish not to dismiss them unfed, not lest they should collapse in the way.” 33And the disciples, they say to Him, “Whence to us in solitude – loaves so many as to gorge a crowd so vast?” 34And He says to them, Jesus, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few tiddlers.” 35And He ordered the crowds to sit upon the ground. 36And having taken the seven loaves and the fish, and having thanked, He broke, and He gave to His disciples, and the disciples to the crowd. 37And they ate, all, and they gorged, and the superabounding of the fragments they lifted – seven hampers full. 38And those eating, they were four thousand men, besides women and children. 39And having dismissed the crowds, He in-stepped into the boat, and He came to the borders of Magdala.
Friz Lang rodó en 1927 “Metrópolis”, una de las películas más influyentes de la historia del cine, un pilar absoluto de la ciencia ficción y del expresionismo alemán y un mito indiscutible. Lo que algunos no saben es que antes de la película existió una novela que fue el origen de esta historia. Firmada por Thea von Harbour, esposa y colaboradora de Lang, la novela se publicó por entregas antes de aparecer como libro en 1925. Ahora el texto se reedita en España ilustrado magníficamente por Tomás Hijo, ilustrador extraordinario. Con Tomás hablamos hoy de este trabajo en La Torre de Babel.“Metrópolis” retrata una realidad diferente, como también lo hace en cada una de sus novelas la escritora argentina Fernanda García Lao, que juega con un lenguaje riquísimo a construir imágenes potentes con un enfoque físico y político en sus historias. Fernanda desafía en cada libro las formas tradicionales del relato para incomodar al lector. Su última novela, “Estación Saturno” sigue el camino abierto por las anteriores y de ella hablamos esta tarde antes de su visita a Zaragoza.

In this episode the hosts Chad, Chili, Cornbread and Blake tackle what artificial intelligence really is, how it differs from machine learning and deep learning, and why the technology feels both powerful and unsettling. Topics include a real voice‑cloning scam that nearly defrauded a listener, definitions of narrow vs general AI, the role of data and cell phones in training models, government and military pushes (including the White House AI action plan), and the rise of data centers and surveillance infrastructure. The conversation also digs into cultural and spiritual implications: the tradeoffs of convenience for liberty, how AI fuels business and creative tensions, and possible theological angles—referencing Genesis (the Fall and Babel) and a preview discussion of Revelation 13 and prophecy for the next episode. Tune in for practical examples, frank debate on risks and benefits, and a preview of next week's deep dive into AI data centers and how this technology could intersect with biblical narratives.

In this message, we explore the story of Babel and what happens when human ambition takes center stage. Rather than abandoning His people, God interrupts their plans to redirect them toward His greater mission.
In a reversal of Babel's curse and in fulfillment of God's eternal plan to save both Jew and Gentile, the Holy Spirit enables the universal heralding of God's mighty saving acts.

In this Bible Story, Noah curses and blesses his sons, and the Tower of Babel is created as mankind attempts to be their own gods and make their name great. This story is inspired by Genesis 9:20-11:26. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a year. Today's Bible verse is Genesis 9:3 from the King James Version. Episode 7: The Flood is over, but human sin and foolishness are not. After Noah and his family step back onto dry land, Noah offered a sacrifice to God, setting things off on the right foot once again. But Noah’s son Ham dishonors his father, and is put under a curse. Fast forward a few generations and humanity as a whole is disobeying God once again. This time they are wanting their name to become great. Instead of spreading throughout the earth and taking dominion of it, as God commanded, they remain and create a magnificent tower, reaching to God’s throne in the heavens.

After we wade through genealogies of Noah's sons, we encounter the tower of Babel, a monument to man's rebellion against God. Being made in the image of God, these men imitate their creator by creating, which is all well and good, except that they defy God's command to fill the earth and attempt to rob God of glory by making a name for themselves. God graciously uses language to scatter them so they can see the expansive majesty of His Creation rather than stare at the cute little tower they've made. In time, Abram is born, and God makes great promises as He calls Abram to follow His commands.Genesis 10 – 1:11 . Genesis 11 – 4:42 . Genesis 12 – 9:35 . Genesis 13 – 13:03 . Psalm 3 – 16:11 .

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey through scripture together, drawing closer to the heart of God. In today's episode, host Hunter invites us into the fourth day of the new year's reading plan, reminding us that the pages of the Bible point us to the living Word—Jesus, who brings life and abundance. We dive into Genesis chapters 9 through 11, exploring God's covenant with Noah, the beginnings of nations after the flood, and the story of the Tower of Babel. Our reading continues in Luke 4, where Jesus, filled with the Spirit, faces temptation in the wilderness and launches His ministry with a message of hope for everyone—inside and outside the expected boundaries. As Hunter reflects on these scriptures, we are challenged to open our hearts wider, recognizing that God's love and grace reach beyond the borders we set. Today is an invitation to see God's favor poured out on the unexpected, to pray for all people, and to participate in the healing, freedom, and joy that Jesus proclaims. Let's step forward together, grounded in the assurance that we are deeply loved—no doubt about it. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He's outside the bounds and borders of where we expect him to be. He is present with those that we think are disqualified from his care, his healing and his love. They're from places like Zarephath in Sidon, or from the land of Syria, gentile lands, borderlands among people that are our enemies, people that we think are enemies of God, people we think are headed for destruction. And yet here's Jesus preaching His first sermon in a church service and proclaiming that God is with them too. That God's favor, His healing, his mercy, his grace is with those people too. This made no sense to his listeners. It offended their religious sensibilities to the core. So much so that Luke tells us that they tried to kill him afterwards. But Jesus will not be stopped. He will not be silenced, and his message will continue to be proclaimed. Jesus comes to show us that God is not a tribal deity. No, he is the God of all tribes. He is the God of all the earth. And his love for the world and its people is reaching into places that our religious minds and our offended minds say are outside the bounds of God's grace. So let's beware of drawing borders around God's love and his grace. Let's look carefully at how Jesus begins His ministry here in his very first sermon. And let us understand well what the Spirit of God is saying to his people. The good News is for the poor. Captives are released, the blind are seeing, the oppressed are set free. And the time of the Lord's favor has come. And Jesus says that that favor has come to everyone, inside and outside of whatever borders we have constructed. And that is good news for all of us. And the prayer of my own heart today is that I will participate with him in seeing and proclaiming and experiencing the favor and love of God in my own life and in the lives of all people. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.
