His father led a rebellion against Moses. The ground opened and swallowed it whole. Then Numbers 26:11 says something strange: "But the sons of Korah did not die."Those survivors became the men who guarded the temple doors — and they wrote Psalm 84. So when they say "I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God," they're not writing poetry. They're a generation deciding not to repeat their father's mistake.Pastor Johnny and Pastor Tim Grandstaff walk through Psalm 84 verse by verse: why "doorkeeper" undersells what the Hebrew actually says, how the Valley of Baca connects back to Psalm 23's "through," what "from strength to strength" meant on the pilgrim road to Zion, and why margin — not more activity — is what makes this psalm livable.Psalm 84 · Season 4, Episode 37
“Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well, the rain also filleth the pools.” — Psalm 84:6 This teaches us that the comfort obtained by a one may often prove serviceable to another; just as wells would be used by the company who came after. We read some book full of consolation, […]

He holds both an engineering/industrial technology degree and an MBA from Cal State Long Beach. Based in Minnesota, Steve has been married to his wife Katherine for over 24 years, and they're proud parents of their son Carson, currently studying at Northeastern University.
Pilgrim or Traveler: How to Go From Strength to Strength Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. WATCH TRIBUTE VIDEO FOR REV. HORACE BRYAN HUDSON Psalms 84:5-7, Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage. As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a spring; The rain also covers it with pools. They go from strength to strength, each one appears before God in Zion. Based on Psalm 84:5–7, this message challenges believers to consider whether they are merely travelers moving through life for personal satisfaction or pilgrims moving with God-given purpose. The central text declares, “Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage… They go from strength to strength.” The sermon was also dedicated to Dr. Hudson's father on the eve of his 90th birthday, connecting the message of pilgrimage, legacy, faith, and strength with the influence of previous generations. Faith Requires Hope Faith cannot function properly without hope. Drawing from Hebrews 11, the message defines hope as the picture of an expected outcome and faith as the substance that gives reality to that hope. Strong faith therefore requires strong, clear hope rooted in Scripture, God's promises, purpose, and the testimony of what God has done in previous generations. Remembering history and legacy helps create those pictures of hope. Just as Israel carried stones from the Jordan River as a memorial of God's faithfulness, believers should preserve testimonies of what God has done so future generations can develop hope and faith for themselves. Our Strength Is in God Psalm 84 teaches two essential truths: our strength is in God rather than ourselves, and our hearts should be set on pilgrimage rather than mere travel. Skills, knowledge, experience, and accomplishments must never cause believers to forget the One who supplied their strength. A pilgrimage is a journey with purpose. For the believer, pilgrimage is no longer primarily about traveling to a sacred geographical location. Because believers are complete in Christ, the pilgrimage is toward places of purpose, service, communion, and fulfillment of the will of God, and it is lived within covenant community. Pilgrim Versus Traveler The sermon presents an important contrast: The traveler seeks satisfaction in the moment; the pilgrim seeks purpose for a lifetime. Travelers primarily consume experiences for themselves; pilgrims move with purpose and look for opportunities to serve. Pilgrimage is not merely reaching a destination—it is living an entire journey according to God's purpose. Dr. Hudson illustrates this through his six trips to Africa. Most were mission journeys focused on preaching, encouraging, feeding, helping, and strengthening people rather than sightseeing. The difference was purpose: he was there as a pilgrim, not simply as a traveler. Passing Through the Valley of Baca The Valley of Baca represents the difficult, dry, sorrowful, and sometimes tearful portions of a pilgrim's journey. The sermon emphasizes that hardship is a normal part of purposeful living, but believers should distinguish between suffering encountered while following God and difficulties created through their own mistakes—what the sermon calls a “non-Baca valley.” When believers encounter a true Valley of Baca while pursuing God's purpose, they do not simply endure it. Through God's grace, they transform the difficult place into a spring. God may not have caused the hardship, but He can sustain His people through it and bring something beneficial from it. Turning Difficulty Into a Resource One of the sermon's strongest pictures comes from pilgrims traveling through dry places. They would dig wells or shallow cisterns to capture groundwater, rain, or moisture. The water sustained them, but when they continued their journey, the resource remained for whoever came behind them. This becomes the deeper meaning of “strength to strength.” It is not simply: I received strength, and now I receive even more strength for myself. Rather: God gives me strength, and I use what He has given me to add strength to someone else. A pilgrim asks, “What can I do in this hard place that will become a spring for somebody coming behind me?” From Strength to Strength Means Blessing Others Going from strength to strength therefore has a generational and communal dimension. The believer's resources, experiences, lessons, victories, and even hardships can become resources that strengthen others. Rather than thinking only individually, believers are called to think about family, community, posterity, and the Kingdom of God. Dr. Hudson connects this principle with caregiving, observing what others had done for their parents and later applying lessons from those examples while caring for his own father. He also gives the contemporary example of New Covenant Church making space available to Mindful Pieces Behavioral Therapy, demonstrating that even while personally traveling through a difficult season, it is still possible to create a resource that blesses someone else. Pilgrimage Produces Legacy The ultimate goal of pilgrimage is not simply personal achievement but legacy. The sermon makes this important distinction: “An inheritance is what we leave to people. A legacy is what we leave within people.” A pilgrim therefore moves through life asking not only, “What can I receive?” but, “What can I leave behind that will strengthen somebody else?” The message closes with a confession of faith declaring: I am a pilgrim, not merely a traveler. My heart is set on pilgrimage. I move with purpose toward service, communion, and fulfillment of God's will. When I pass through a Valley of Baca, God helps me transform difficulty into a resource for others. By His grace, I go from strength to strength—not merely gaining strength for myself, but creating springs and pools that add strength to others. Central Message A traveler passes through life consuming experiences. A pilgrim passes through life with purpose, allowing God to turn even difficult places into resources that bless others. Going “from strength to strength” means receiving strength from God and then using that strength to strengthen the people and generations coming behind us. And the supreme example of this purposeful pilgrimage is Jesus Christ, through whom every good thing is made possible. CONFESSION OF FAITH I am a Pilgrim, not only a traveler. My heart is set on pilgrimage, moving with purpose to places of purpose, service, communion, and fulfillment of the will of God. I do not travel alone, but within covenant community. I am not a traveler who seeks satisfaction in the moment. I am a pilgrim whose heart seeks purpose for a lifetime. Pilgrimage is a long journey of purpose. It is not only a destination, but a journey. When moving through a valley of Baca, God helps me transform the difficulty into a resource for others. By the grace of God, I go from strength to strength, not only gaining more strength for myself, but creating springs and pools as resources that add strength to others. As a pilgrim, I move with purpose to leave a legacy. Legacy is more than inheritance. An inheritance is what we leave to people. A legacy is what we leave within people. My example is the pilgrimage of the Lord Jesus Christ, Who makes every good thing possible.
They said nothing would change. Then everything did.Sam Wakefield and Josh Baca have both lived the private equity acquisition from the front lines. Not from the boardroom.

My Soul Longs for the Courts of the LordTo the choirmaster: according to The Gittith.[a] A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.84 How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord of hosts!2 My soul longs, yes, faints for the courts of the Lord;my heart and flesh sing for joy to the living God.3 Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young,at your altars, O Lord of hosts, my King and my God.4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing your praise! Selah5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion.[b]6 As they go through the Valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools.7 They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah9 Behold our shield, O God; look on the face of your anointed!10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere.I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor.No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in you!Glorious Things of You Are SpokenA Psalm of the Sons of Korah. A Song.87 On the holy mount stands the city he founded;2 the Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwelling places of Jacob.3 Glorious things of you are spoken, O city of God. Selah4 Among those who know me I mention Rahab and Babylon; behold, Philistia and Tyre, with Cush[a]— “This one was born there,” they say.5 And of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”; for the Most High himself will establish her.6 The Lord records as he registers the peoples, “This one was born there.” Selah7 Singers and dancers alike say, “All my springs are in you.”+++For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

Has your faith ever felt like it was holding on by a thread?In this final stretch of Book 3 of the Psalms, we unpack what it means to wrestle with unanswered questions, national devastation, and personal heartbreak. Walk with us through the raw, unfiltered prayers of lament and praise in Psalms 81–89. They're a gentle reminder that worship isn't just for the good days. God invites us to bring our honest grief, fear, and "how long, Lord?" directly to Him, especially when our life no longer matches the promises of God.In our Psalms 81–89 Bible study, we cover:[4:57] Psalm 81: How the warning to listen and obey God mirrors Paul's message in Romans about the danger of ignoring what God has made plain.[14:11] Psalm 84: Why the descendants of Korah, whose family history is marked by tragedy and rebellion, would rather stand at the door of God's house than live anywhere else.[23:11] Psalm 87: How the prophecy in Psalm 87 that Israel's fiercest enemies will be welcomed as citizens of Zion sets the stage for Paul's teachings in Ephesians.[29:15] Psalm 88: Why the only psalm that ends in total darkness with no resolution teaches us about expressing raw, unresolved pain to God.[37:14] Psalm 89: How Psalm 89 boldly confronts the apparent collapse of the Davidic covenant while still holding space for praise in the dark.Psalms Show NotesPsalms RoadmapPsalms Prayer ListPsalms Playlist - Listen on Apple MusicPsalms Playlist - Listen on SpotifyPhil Wickham - Psalm 8 (Hallé) [Official Music Video]ACTS Prayer GuideGroup Discussion Questions for Psalms 81-89[15:22] The descendants of Korah were content just serving as doorkeepers, literally holding the door, because being near God was all that mattered to them. What is one small, everyday way you could humbly serve God and celebrate His nearness?[16:54] Psalm 84 mentions passing through the "Valley of Baca" (the valley of weeping) and how God can turn those painful places into springs of spiritual growth. Looking back on a hard season in your life, can you see any ways God used that "valley" to bring growth or comfort later on?[38:14] Book 3 of the Psalms ends on a cliffhanger without a happy resolution, reminding us that sometimes we have to worship even when God's promises and our current reality don't match.

This week on Don't Miss This, David Butler and Grace Freeman Smith explore Psalms 49–86, focusing on heartfelt prayers of lament, petition, hope, and trust.

Whether you're carrying grief, regret, anxiety, or simply searching for hope, these scriptures remind us that God draws near, hears our prayers, and transforms our hardest moments into something holy. ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 – Welcome & Summer of Psalms Part 2 2:12 – Why lament is an expression of faith 5:15 – Psalm 55: Cast your burdens upon the Lord 9:42 – Psalm 51: The Passover, repentance & being made clean 17:40 – David's greatest regret and God's mercy 24:08 – Psalm 61: When my heart is overwhelmed 29:18 – God is my Rock (Psalm 62) 33:02 – Psalm 56: God collects every tear 39:36 – Psalm 57: Refuge beneath His wings 46:58 – Psalm 84: The Valley of Baca becomes a well 55:12 – Turning your pain into blessings for others 1:02:21 – Psalm 73: Draw near to God 1:09:33 – Psalm 86: God is ready to forgive 1:15:18 – Psalm 77: When hope is gone 1:24:35 – Final thoughts & New Testament preview

El proyecto musical Machaka, liderado por el cantante, compositor y productor Martín Proaño Baca, se ha consolidado como uno de los grandes éxitos de la presente edición del festival La Mar de Músicas tras su aplaudida actuación el pasado viernes 17 en la Plaza del Ayuntamiento de Cartagena. Durante una entrevista concedida a Onda Regional mientras se encontraba de trayecto, Proaño resaltó la receptividad del público cartagenero y la importancia de actuar como "embajadores" de la identidad de su país en un año donde el festival pone el foco en Ecuador. La propuesta de Machaka, descrita como una música multiétnica y pluricultural que bebe de raíces diversas como la música amazónica, logró conectar con los asistentes a través de un sentido de pertenencia y orgullo por las raíces que el propio artista define como un elemento clave de su estilo.
Elizabeth Wehrle of Montezuma went into the hospital in February and this week she gets to go home. In March, she received a first-of-its-kind lifesaving surgery, a quadruple organ transplant. On this episode, we talk with Wehrle and Dr. Ankit Bharat of Northwestern Medicine, the lead surgeon for this groundbreaking procedure. We hear about the health issues that led to these transplants, what this surgical advancement means and what goes into the decision to perform a surgery that hasn't been done before. Then, we talk with Suzanna de Baca, Iowa author of 'You Were Never Lost: Poems From The Tallgrass Prairie.' De Baca didn't expect to write about grief, but when back at the place where she spent her childhood with a friend who died, poetry and nature helped her cope.

Guided Question How would you evaluate your spiritual progress today — are you cultivating a deeper desire for God's presence, drawing strength from Him in difficult seasons, and growing in a life marked by trust and obedience? Summary This episode explores Psalm 84 and what Dr. Robert Lewis calls the "Signs of a Pilgrim's Progress." He reminds us that life's highest calling is to know God, yet the distractions and demands of everyday life often cause us to lose sight of that purpose. Using Psalm 84, Dr. Lewis identifies three marks of genuine spiritual growth. First is a yearning heart—a deep desire for God's presence that produces contentment and praise. Second is increasing strength, which comes through continual communion with God and enables believers to pass through life's "Valleys of Baca" without becoming trapped in spiritual dryness. Third is a good life, marked by trust, obedience, and a growing preference for God's presence over the world's rewards. The psalm concludes with a call to spiritual renewal: confess spiritual disorientation, recommit to pursuing God, bring your burdens and dry places to Him, and trust His promise that He withholds no good thing from those who walk uprightly. The movement is clear: A heart that longs for God. A life strengthened by God. A life satisfied in God. Key Takeaways The Yearning Heart (Psalm 84:1–4) A growing believer desires God's presence above all else. Religious activity cannot replace genuine devotion. Contentment and praise flow naturally from enjoying God. Increasing Strength (Psalm 84:5–7) Strength comes through continual communion with God. "Highways to Zion" are built through prayer, Scripture, repentance, and obedience. God can transform life's dry valleys into places of blessing. Believers go "from strength to strength" as they draw near to Him. The Good Life (Psalm 84:10–12) God's presence is better than worldly success or comfort. Trust and obedience lead to lasting satisfaction. No good thing is withheld from those who walk uprightly. Applications Confess spiritual disorientation. Recommit to pursuing God's presence. Bring your "Valley of Baca" to Him. Rest in God's promises and faithfulness.

Introduction: The Divine Waymaker Overcoming the World's Directions: In the natural world, when asking for directions, people might discouragingly tell you, "You can't get there from here." However, God specializes in impossible routes. No matter your starting point or how dead-end your situation seems, God can get you to your divine destination. The Invisible Path: Reading from Psalm 77:19, Pastor Rhonda highlights that God's road often leads straight through the sea and mighty waters—paths that no one even knew existed, leaving no human footsteps behind. The God of Action: Citing Psalm 77:13-14, we serve a great God who actively makes things happen and pulls His people out of the worst kind of trouble. II. Point 1: Start Right Here (The Beauty of the Sanctuary) Choosing a New Path: In Psalm 84, the sons of Korah write about longing for the courts of the Lord. This is significant because their ancestor, Korah, rebelled and was destroyed. Yet, his descendants chose a different path. You may come from generations of brokenness, but you can choose today to serve the Lord. Proximity Over Position: The house of God is beautiful not because of its physical architecture or staging, but because it is where God's people gather to corporately meet with Him. A Day in His Courts: According to the Psalmist, a single day in God's courts is better than a thousand days spent anywhere else. Proximity to God trumps any secular privilege—even a debt-free million-dollar resort or a palace. Strength to Strength: In the sanctuary, believers draw dynamic strength from one another's testimonies—seeing brothers and sisters who have conquered cancer, beaten addictions, and defied medical odds. Together, they pass through the Valley of Baca (weeping) and turn it into a place of fresh, living springs. III. Point 2: Remember God's Track Record The Roundabout Way: When God delivered Israel out of Egypt (Exodus 14), He intentionally did not lead them along the shortest route through Philistine territory. God stated His strategy: He knew that if they faced an immediate battle, they would get discouraged and turn back. Strategic Position vs. Apparent Mistake: God purposefully led them on a roundabout way through the wilderness to camp at a perceived dead end at Baal Zephon. To Pharaoh and the enemy, it looked like they were wandering aimlessly and trapped by the wilderness. The Enemy's Trap: What the world or the enemy labels as a disastrous mistake is actually God's hidden strategy. God didn't build a dead end to trap His people; He built a trap to eliminate their enemy. IV. Point 3: Trust the God Who Takes You Through the Obstacle Through, Not Around: When the crisis hit at the Red Sea, God did not build a bridge over it, send boats to carry them, or take them around it. He took them straight through it. The obstacle itself became the road. Night Season Operations: God blew back the waters all through the night season. When you are in your own dark night season and cannot see a way forward, that is precisely when God is operating behind the scenes to clear your pathway. The Mystery of the Dolphin Skins: In Exodus 26:11, God instructs Moses to cover the ceiling of the Tabernacle's tent of meeting with dolphin skins. While finding sea creatures in the middle of a dry wilderness seems impossible, Jewish history and various scholars suggest a powerful reason: As the Israelites crossed the Red Sea with walls of water stacked high on either side, they could see the marine life. They carried those skins into the wilderness as a permanent structural reminder in their ceiling to look up and remember: “We did not get here by ourselves; it was the Lord who redeemed us.” The Right to Cross Over: Because the blood of Jesus has purchased you, you are legally classified as the redeemed of the Lord, giving you an absolute right to cross over your barriers. V. Point 4: Trust the Process from the Manger to the Throne God's Unconventional Pathways: Throughout history, God has continuously built unexpected avenues of deliverance using unlikely people: He anointed a heathen king named Cyrus to march through the Euphrates River at night to overthrow Babylon and deliver His weeping people. He anointed a simple cupbearer named Nehemiah to stand before King Artaxerxes to secure the rebuilding of Jerusalem's ruined walls. Shouting to the Mountain: When holy projects stop halfway and leave you in disappointment, we must speak the prophetic words of Zechariah 4:7: Cry "Grace, grace" to the mountain, and it shall be leveled into a plain. The Humble Arrival: When the King of Kings arrived, He bypassed the expected pathways of Middle Eastern royalty—the velvet tapestries, marble floors, and royal heralds. Instead, He started in a dusty, earthy manger filled with straw and the smell of livestock. Palace Transmutations: God took a route no human saw coming. If God can navigate a path from a low, dirty manger straight to the right hand of the Throne, He can take the "manger" situations of your life and turn them into a palace. VI. Conclusion: No Throne Without the Cross The Strategic Weapon: The cross was naturally a site of execution, sin, deep shame, and public humiliation. The religious elite and demonic principalities assumed Jesus could never reach the throne from such a low place of defeat. Returning to the Feet of the Cross: The cross is not just the entry point of your salvation; it is your ongoing structural weapon against the enemy. When you are bullied by fear, intrusive thoughts, or defeat, return to the feet of the cross where the veil was torn, sin was destroyed, and shame was paid back. The Third Day Resurrection: The apparent defeat of the cross was turned around on the third day when Jesus was triumphantly resurrected from the tomb. Because of that structural victory, God has highly exalted Him and given Him a name that reigns supreme over cancer, sickness, debt, and every dead-end trap of the enemy. Scripture Index Here are the primary scriptures read, cited, or expounded upon during the service: Psalm 77:19 > "Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known." Psalm 77:13-14 > "Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people." Psalm 84:1-2 > "How amiable [lovely] are thy tabernacles, O Lord of hosts! My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the Lord: my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God." Psalm 84:6-7 (Referenced) – Passing through the Valley of Baca [weeping] and making it a well, as they go from strength to strength. Psalm 84:10 > "For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness." Exodus 14 (Referenced) – The account of God leading Israel the roundabout way through the wilderness to camp at Baal Zephon, and Pharaoh assuming they were trapped. Isaiah 51:9-10 (Paraphrased) – Awaking the arm of the Lord to put on strength as in ancient generations, drying up the great deep to make a road for the redeemed to cross over. Exodus 26:11 / Exodus 36:19 (Referenced) – The structural command to cover the tent of the Tabernacle with a covering of dolphin skins [badger/sea-cow skins in some translations]. Zechariah 4:7 > "Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it." Isaiah 51:11 (Referenced) – The redeemed of the Lord returning and coming with singing unto Zion, with everlasting joy upon their heads. Numbers 6:24-26 (The Benediction) > "The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace."

Life's journey is rarely easy, and Psalm 84 speaks directly into those difficult seasons we all face. Written by worship leaders for pilgrims traveling through harsh, waterless terrain to Jerusalem, this ancient song becomes a timeless guide for navigating our own valleys of tears. The psalm reveals three transformative principles for walking through hardship: staying in God's presence, moving from strength to strength, and choosing what is truly better. What strikes us most is the psalmist's intense longing for God, not just casual interest but an overwhelming desire that consumes heart, soul, and flesh. This isn't about visiting God once a week like a distant relative, but dwelling in His presence daily, making our home with Him even when circumstances are unbearable. The Valley of Baca, the valley of weeping, represents those seasons when everything feels dry and hopeless. Yet we're called to pass through, not set up permanent residence in our pain. The promise is stunning: God gives us strength for each moment we need it, not stored up in advance but fresh daily like manna in the wilderness. When we choose God as better than a thousand days of worldly success, fame, or pleasure, we align our entire lives around what truly matters. This psalm challenges us to examine whether our daily choices reflect that God is genuinely better, or if we're slowly drifting toward what feels more urgent, comfortable, or rewarding in the moment.Subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@CelebrateChurchCelebrate Church is led by Pastor Noah Rollins.

The Peter Boyles Show June 13, 2026 HOUR 2: Peter Boyles takes listeners on a heartfelt and hilarious trip through Denver radio history as he reunites the team behind one of the most memorable April Fools' broadcasts ever aired on KNUS (2015). Inspired by Orson Welles' legendary War of the Worlds broadcast, the crew revisits the infamous "station takeover" that convinced listeners something very strange was happening on Denver's airwaves. Joining Peter are longtime friends and former colleagues Casey Boyer, Tom Moller, Efren, Kevin, and Kelly Michaels as they share behind-the-scenes stories from the prank that introduced listeners to the fictional morning show duo "Chewy & Baca," triggered listener panic, and even brought law enforcement to the station. The reunion also serves as a farewell celebration for Kevin as he prepares to move to Nashville for a major role with the K-LOVE network. Along the way, the group reflects on friendship, faith, radio's golden moments, career journeys, and the unique chemistry that helped make their shows successful. This is more than a walk down memory lane—it's a tribute to the people, personalities, and camaraderie that made Denver radio special.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us Fan Mail A gentle heads-up: this conversation touches on cancer, a near-death experience, and a season of deep depression. Please listen with care, and if now isn't the right time, that's okay. “You've got the good kind of cancer.” That sentence is everywhere, and it can land like a slap when you're the one living it. I sit down with Alicia Baca Rush, speaker, author of The Good Kind of Cancer Turning Pain into Purpose, and a thyroid cancer survivor to talk about what people miss when they label any diagnosis as “lucky” or “easy.” Alicia shares the reality behind the prognosis: intense daily symptoms, fear that doesn't fit neatly into stages, and the emotional weight of being told to feel grateful. Then her story takes a turn that hits at identity itself. After surgery, she faced paralyzed vocal cords, a tracheostomy tube, and a level of medical trauma that pushed her into deep depression and embarrassment in public. We talk about what it's like when your voice changes, when connection becomes harder, and when you're forced to meet a new version of yourself. We also get practical. Alicia breaks down the tools that helped her move forward: meditation, mindset work, permission to grieve, and the discipline of getting out of bed tomorrow without denying how bad today feels. We dig into reclaiming control during illness, what “turning pain into purpose” honestly means, and why letting people help can be an act of strength. If you're navigating thyroid cancer, chronic illness, vocal cord paralysis, recovery after surgery, or the mental health spiral that can follow, this conversation offers language, perspective, and hope that doesn't sugarcoat.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Rabu, 15 April 2026Bacaan: "Betapa kucintai Taurat-Mu! Aku merenungkannya sepanjang hari." (Mazmur 119:97)Renungan: Suatu ketika ada seorang anak muda yang bertobat dan mulai menghadiri ibadah di gereja. Kemudian seseorang meletakkan tangan di atas bahunya sambil berkata, "Anak muda, ada tiga aturan yang dapat aku berikan kepadamu dan jika engkau berpegang pada peraturan itu maka engkau tidak akan kembali pada kehidupanmu yang lama." Orang itu pun berkata lagi, "Ambil waktu paling sedikit 15 menit setiap hari untuk mendengarkan apa yang Tuhan ingin katakan kepadamu, 15 menit untuk berbicara kepadaNya dan 15 menit untuk berbicara kepada orang lain mengenai Dia." Sebagai orang yang baru bertobat, ia sangat termotivasi dengan tiga aturan yang diberikan kepadanya dan saat itu juga ia memutuskan untuk berpegang pada ketiga aturan tersebut. Sejak hari itu dan hari-hari selanjutnya, ia melakukan ketiga aturan yang diberikan kepadanya dengan tekun. Salah satu bentuk ketaatannya pada aturan yang diberikan kepadanya adalah tekun berdiam diri di kaki Tuhan dan membaca firman-Nya. Ia memulai setiap hari dengan berdoa dan membaca firman Tuhan. Sebelum ia membaca surat dan surat kabar, ia selalu membaca Alkitab terlebih dahulu sehingga ia mendapatkan petunjuk dan penghiburan dari Tuhan setiap hari. Jika kita memperhatikan tiga aturan di atas, maka kita dapat menyimpulkannya dalam tiga hal yaitu, membaca Alkitab, berdoa dan bersaksi. Mengapa kita harus membaca Alkitab? Karena Tuhan rindu menyampaikan banyak hal kepada kita melalui firman-Nya. Jika kita ingin mendapatkan petunjuk, peringatan, kekuatan dan penghiburan dari-Nya setiap hari, maka kita harus membaca Alkitab. Begitu pula di dalam hal berdoa, sebagai orang percaya kita perlu berkomunikasi dengan Tuhan di dalam doa. Hubungan yang erat dengan-Nya akan menolong dan memampukan kita menghadapi kehidupan ini dengan ketabahan, kekuatan dan keyakinan yang diperbaharui setiap hari. Hal-hal ini tidak dapat kita peroleh begitu saja tanpa bergaul dengan Tuhan dan memberikan waktu bagi-Nya. Seberapa jauh kita telah belajar mendisiplinkan diri dalam hal berdoa dan membaca firman Tuhan? Kalau tontonan di tv, berita di internet, medsos, dan hobi lebih menarik hati kita daripada bersekutu dengan Tuhan di dalam doa dan pembacaan firman-Nya, kita harus mengadakan introspeksi. Demikian pula dengan bersaksi kepada orang lain tentang kasih Yesus yang telah menyelamatkan kita. Sudahkah kita menggunakan setiap kesempatan untuk memberitakan kasih-Nya? Coba renungkan, berapa banyak waktu yang kita gunakan untuk membicarakan berbagai hal yang tidak ada gunanya. Alangkah baiknya jika kita selalu menyediakan waktu untuk membicarakan kasih Yesus kepada orang lain sehingga mereka pun diberkati dan dapat mengenal Yesus. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, kerinduan hatiku, yaitu semakin mengenal Engkau. Aku mau belajar mendisiplin diri untuk membaca firman-Mu, berdoa dan bersaksi. Amin. (Dod).
Cities are moving to take down monuments, memorials and street signs honoring César Chávez. Organizers are cancelling the annual events planned In honor of his March 31 birthday. While his contributions for migrant farmworkers and Chicano-Americans are indisputable, Chávez' heroic status among those he fought for is now challenged by troubling allegations surfacing in a New York Times investigation decades after the fact. We'll discuss the future of the movement Chávez is best known for, likely going forward without his name. We'll also discuss any lessons his downfall may have for the tendency to build a cause around one man.

James Sexton endures weeks of solitary confinement in federal prison, as prosecutors finally gear up to take Lee Baca to trial. Baca's lawyers claim he has Alzheimer's Disease. It's late 2016, and the recent presidential race has made the FBI unpopular in liberal Los Angeles. Sexton testifies for the government and is released early, a humbled man, to begin rebuilding his life. The jury deadlocks at Baca's trial, only one wants to convict him, but prosecutor Brandon Fox presents a more fleshed-out case and wins a conviction in March 2017. A judge gives Baca a three-year sentence. In his late 70s, he goes to prison. Anthony Brown, in prison for life, wins a $1 million settlement against the county, while Leah Marx is promoted to the FBI's behavioral science unit.The conviction of Sheriff Lee Baca marked a rare prosecution of a lawman at his level and closed a turbulent chapter in Los Angeles history. What began with a smuggled phone ended with the county's top law-enforcement officer in prison. The series is told by Chris Goffard, whose reporting on Dirty John reached millions around the world.Topics in this episode include: Sheriff Lee Baca trial, Los Angeles jail corruption, James Sexton prison, FBI investigation, Anthony Brown settlement.
The feds interview Baca's flinty #2 man and heir apparent, Paul Tanaka, who professes ignorance about who gave the order to hide Anthony Brown. In 2013, as the FBI probe enters its fifth year, feds finally get a chance to grill Baca. He touts his achievements as a reformer but admits he resents that the FBI excluded him from the jail probe and snuck in the cell phone. His answers are evasive and riddled with falsehoods. In Jan. 2014, as the feds close in, he resigns after 15 years as sheriff. Tanaka is convicted of conspiracy and obstruction of justice. Baca enters a plea that will give him a maximum of six months in prison, but a judge deems it too lenient, setting the stage for the sheriff's trial.Their questioning showed how politics and power shaped Los Angeles law enforcement. What began as a probe into jailhouse abuse had reached the top of the nation's largest sheriff's department. Chris Goffard, Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter and host of Dirty John, explains how the scandal unraveled the careers of two of the county's most powerful figures.Topics in this episode include: Sheriff Lee Baca, Paul Tanaka conviction, FBI interrogation, Los Angeles jail scandal, obstruction of justice.
When Lee Baca took over the LA County Sheriff's Department in 1998, he inherited a scandal-plagued agency. He built a reputation as a progressive reformer, and his jail-education programs were celebrated. But the feds notice that investigations into his agency always seem to evaporate when he gets involved. By 2011, he is 70 years old and has run the department for 13 years. Furious about the FBI's probe into his jails, Baca has Leah Marx surveilled. Two of his sergeants appear at her apartment and threaten her with arrest. Allegations emerge about the beating of a jail visitor name Gabriel Carrillo. The feds have expanded their probe beyond civil rights violations. Can they make a case for obstruction of justice? How high does the misconduct go?Baca's clash with the FBI revealed how deeply the department was in turmoil. Allegations of intimidation and the beating of visitor Gabriel Carrillo turned a civil rights probe into one of Los Angeles' most significant corruption cases. Host Chris Goffard, from the Los Angeles Times and creator of Dirty John, traces how the investigation escalated to obstruction of justice.Topics in this episode include: Sheriff Lee Baca, Los Angeles County Jail scandal, Gabriel Carrillo beating, FBI investigation, police corruption.
