TODAY'S EPISODE: TODAY'S DEVOTION: 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.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

Rather than spend our time on useless worry, Jesus directs his disciples to "seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness." (Lectionary #370) June 21, 2025 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

“They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!” (2 Timothy 3:5 NLT) As an evangelist, I constantly observe how two people who hear the same message will react in two completely different ways. One person will be profoundly moved, while the other will become harder in their sin. We see the very same thing in the story of Cain and Abel. Both men were sons of Adam and Eve. Both were raised in the same home and exposed to the same spiritual message. When we first read their story in Genesis 4, it seems as though they were both believers. But time revealed that Cain was so jealous and embittered that he murdered his brother Abel. The story of Cain and Abel ought to remind us that there are people just going through the motions, spiritually speaking. They give the appearance of being believers, but they have no real relationship with God. Or, as the apostle Paul put it in 2 Timothy 3:15: “They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly” (NLT). That’s the life story of too many people. They are all show and no go. Their faith in God is nothing more than a mere game or act. Paul followed his description with a warning: “Stay away from people like that!” (NLT). Believers, especially young believers, can be led astray by people with an insincere faith. Consider this. You can offer like Cain. You can weep like Esau. You can serve like Gehazi. You can be a disciple like Judas. You can recite long prayers like the Pharisees. You can be a seeking soul like the rich young ruler. You can have lamps like the five foolish bridesmaids. You can do all these things and still be lost. Jesus was referring to God’s words recorded in Isaiah 29:13 when He said, “These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me” (Matthew 15:8 NLT). And while spiritual acts may fool many people, they can never fool the Lord. Remember: “The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart” (1 Samuel 16:7 NLT). That’s why it’s such a short-sighted mistake to take a surface-deep approach to the Christian faith. One day, we will all have to answer for the choices we make in this life. And Jesus warned in Matthew 7:21: “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter” (NLT). Jesus offers not just eternal life in heaven but also “a rich and satisfying life” (John 10:10 NLT) in this world. But you can’t experience it if your only concern is looking like a Christian. Jesus demands your whole heart. Reflection question: How can you tell the difference between a sincere and insincere faith?

Today, Mike and Robby share some powerful stories and give us a wonderful view of what faith in Lord Christ Jesus truly looks like.     "I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." -Galatians 2:20

Isaiah 53 is one of the most important chapters in the entire Bible! This astounding passage prophesizes the death of Christ 700 years before He even lived! This amazing chapter shows how the King would die on behalf of His people so that they (and us) might be part of His eternal kingdom. Join us as we study this key chapter in God's Word! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    Isaiah 53 is one of the most important and well-known chapters in the entire Old Testament. Prior to this study, what is your familiarity with this chapter and why would you have said it was so important for Christians to know and understand?  2.    The podcast mentioned that background leading up to this chapter included the unfolding promise of the New Covenant that would be made with and through the Servant. This covenant will be a NEW covenant (Is 42 & 49) where God's people will enter a NEW Kingdom (Isaiah 2 & 25) with a NEW King (Isaiah 7, 9, 11, et.al.) as the NEW Israel (Isaiah 49:3). Why is this background vital to understanding the profound depth of Isaiah 53 and the offering of the Suffering Servant King for our sins?  3.    The podcast mentioned that there were three “servants” mentioned in the Book of Isaiah. Who were they? Which servant is being spoken of here in Isaiah 53?  4.    How is the Messiah-Servant-King described in verses 2 and 3? Why would this be a surprise to God's people? Would you have difficulty believing in a Messianic King who looked like this?  5.    What happens to the Messiah-King in verses 5, 7 and 9? How does verses 6 and 8 explain why He would experience such suffering?  6.    According to verse 10, who was the ultimate source of the suffering of the Servant? Why is that important for us to know?  7.    Verse 10 also says that the Suffering Servant would offer Himself as a “guilt offering”. The podcast mentioned that the guilt offering was taught in Levititus where the person paid 1/5 more in restitution for the damages of their sin. Think about our sin before God; we have an infinite debt before God, what is 1/5 of infinity? Why is our debt to God literally impossible to repay? Why did we need an eternal king to pay our eternal debt, plus 1/5, for us?  8.    According to verse 11, how did the Father view the guilt offering of the Suffering Servant? Who will be justified by this offering? What does it even mean to be justified? What does it mean for YOU to be justified?  9.    When did you first look to Jesus as your guilt offering payment to God? How has that realization impacted your relationship with God, the world and His work in your life?  10.    If a person will not trust in Jesus' guilt offering payment for their sins, what is the reality of their relationship with God now and for eternity?  Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis!

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to David Sindelar from Roswell, GA. David, your partnership with us through Project23 is helping open ears and loosen tongues with the truth of the gospel. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 7:31-37: Then he returned from the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, in the region of the Decapolis. And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had a speech impediment, and they begged him to lay his hand on him. And taking him aside from the crowd privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and after spitting touched his tongue. And looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.” And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. And Jesus charged them to tell no one. But the more he charged them, the more zealously they proclaimed it. And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”— Mark 7:31-37 Jesus returns to the Decapolis—Gentile territory again. This time, a man is brought to him. He's deaf and mostly mute. And the people beg Jesus to lay his hand on him. What happens next is strange—and intimate. Jesus pulls him away from the crowd. He touches his ears. He touches his tongue. He looks up and sighs deeply. Then he speaks a single word: “Ephphatha”—Be opened. A word that the man didn't even hear and couldn't speak opened his ears and loosened his mouth. In an instant, everything changes. The man hears. The man speaks. His world expands from silence to sound. From isolation to community. This miracle isn't just about healing—it's about how Jesus heals. He doesn't heal from a distance. He gets close. He touches. He sighs. It's personal. It's intentional. And it's full of compassion. And the crowd? They can't stop talking: “He has done all things well.” That's still true. Jesus still does all things well. He doesn't just fix what's broken—he restores what's been lost. And he can do that in your life, too. Maybe your ears aren't physically shut today, but maybe you've shut your ears to the sound of God's voice. Maybe your mouth still works, but you've been silent when you should speak. Let Jesus touch those places. Let him open what's been shut. Let him loosen what's been stuck. Let him restore what's been silenced. Let him come close and touch you spiritually. Hear him say, "Be opened." Because when Jesus speaks “Be opened” over your life, you will never be the same. #BeOpened, #JesusHealsDeeply, #AllThingsWell ASK THIS: What part of my life feels spiritually “deaf” or “mute”? Where do I need Jesus to get personal with my pain? What have I been too afraid to speak aloud? Do I truly believe Jesus still does all things well? DO THIS: Take 10 minutes alone today and ask Jesus to touch the part of your life that feels shut down or stuck. PRAY THIS: Jesus, open the parts of me that have gone silent. Touch what I've hidden, and restore me to wholeness with your gentle power. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Same God” – Elevation Worship.

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! In today's episode—June 20th, 2025—we journey through Second Kings, chapters 4 and 5, Psalm 83, and First Timothy, chapter 2. Host Hunter guides us through powerful stories of miracles, faith, and God's provision. We'll hear about Elisha's compassion as he brings hope to a struggling widow, restores life to a grieving mother's child, purifies a poisoned meal, and heals the mighty Naaman of leprosy. As we reflect on these acts, we see vivid foreshadowings of Christ—the one true Mediator who brings life and reconciliation. Alongside these narratives, we explore prayers from Psalm 83 and mindful instructions from First Timothy on worship, prayer, and living a godly life. Join us as we open our hearts to what the Spirit is saying, seek God's presence in prayer, and are reminded—no matter where we are or what we face—that we are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: There is only one man who can make things right. The woman of Shunam knew this deep in her soul. In her hour of loss and grief, when her boy had died, she didn't want just anyone—she sought after the man of God. Gehazi, Elisha's servant, or anyone else simply wouldn't do. She believed, against all hope, that somehow this one man could bring her son back to life, could set things right that had gone terribly wrong. And Elisha did something unexpected. He went up to the lifeless boy, stretched himself out face to face, hand to hand, eye to eye over the child. It is as if Elisha was absorbing the death of the boy into himself so that the child could be restored to life. What a powerful image—a man of God bridging the gap between death and life. But this isn't just about one miracle centuries ago. It's a living picture pointing forward to another man who would come and absorb death—not just for one boy, but for the whole world. Jesus, the true Man of God, stepped into our story. He absorbed our sin, our sorrow, our death into himself upon the cross. He defeated death, and with tender care, draws us into his life—face to face, hand to hand, eye to eye. In him, we experience resurrection even now, the beginning of eternal life. Paul, in today's reading, reminds us: “For there is one God and one mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone.” Jesus stands alone as the One who can bridge the gap, the only One able to make things right between us and God. His resurrection life is offered to us. His victory over death is our hope, our foundation, our future. May God open our eyes to see that death has been defeated. May we recognize the One who stands before us, calling us into a resurrected life—today and always. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Almighty and ever loving God you have brought us to the light of a new morning. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit that we may walk this day in peace. Guard our steps from temptation. Shield us from the weight of fear and shame, and lead us deeper into the joy of your presence through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. O Christ, light of the nations, shine in every place where shadows dwell. Call the scattered home, heal the wounds of division and gather all people into the communion of your grace. May the knowledge of the Lord cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Amen. And our Lord, make my hands ready for mercy. Make my eyes quick to see the hurting, my ears open to the cry of the lonely, and my feet swift. To bring good news. Let me seek to bless, not to be noticed, to serve, not to be praised, to forgive, not to hold back. For in your way is life, in your mercy is healing, and in your love is the peace this world cannot give. 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 trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

In this episode of Bible Reading and Coffee Drinking, we dive into the powerful and emotional events of Matthew 26. From the woman who anoints Jesus with perfume, to Judas' betrayal, the Last Supper, and Jesus' agonizing prayer in Gethsemane—this chapter is full of heartbreak, devotion, and divine purpose. As the path to the cross begins, we see both human weakness and God's unshakable plan of redemption. Grab your Bible and coffee, and let's walk through this sacred moment in the story of our Savior.Also, use the code "Podcast20" to get 20% off our entire store.

Leonardo De Chirico and Mark Gilbert join the program to discuss the enduring significance of the Nicene Creed as it marks its 1700th anniversary. Drawing from their recent edited volume, The Nicene Creed: The Nature of Christian Unity and the Meaning of Gospel Words (Matthias Media), the guests explore how shared creedal language can mask deep theological differences, particularly between evangelical and Roman Catholic traditions. Leonardo De Chirico is a pastor of a Reformed evangelical church in Rome, a scholar of Roman Catholic theology, and a leader in the Reformanda Initiative, which seeks to equip evangelical engagement with Roman Catholicism. Mark Gilbert serves as a chaplain in Sydney, Australia, and leads the ministry Certainty for Eternity, which focuses on evangelism among those from Roman Catholic backgrounds. Both men bring rich theological and pastoral insight to bear on the question of unity in Christ. The conversation traces the origins of the creed, its Trinitarian framework, and the implications of confessing shared historical truths while diverging in doctrinal substance—especially concerning Christology, the church, and salvation. Leonardo and Mark also share personal insights from their ministries engaging Roman Catholics, underscoring the need for unity rooted in biblical truth rather than institutional alignment or superficial consensus. This episode invites thoughtful reflection on what true Christian unity looks like in light of Scripture, and how the creeds function as faithful, yet insufficient, summaries apart from a Reformed understanding of the gospel.

Believers Voice of Victory Video Broadcast for 06/20/2025. Movin' on up! Watch Believer's Voice of Victory as Kenneth Copeland reminds you that Christ has given us His rank. Learn to live a life fully sustained by faith, and begin to walk in your command authority today!

“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.” (1 Corinthians 13:4–7 NLT) Maybe you’ve heard someone say about a happy, loving couple, “They have a marriage made in Heaven.” The implication is that some marriages just work—and that, by extension, some marriages don’t. Don’t believe it. Good marriages thrive because of the efforts made by both partners. Bad marriages fail because of the neglect of both partners. You want a good marriage? Make it. You want a bad marriage? Neglect it. There are two things we can work at to strengthen our marriages. First, we must obey the Word of God. God’s Word must be the standard for marriage. If that’s the case, then we’re on the right track. If that’s not the case, then we’ll face troubles ahead. The apostle Paul’s words in 1 Corinthians 13:4–7 give us a master class in creating a solid, thriving, durable relationship. It starts with choosing patience and kindness in interacting with one another and refusing to allow circumstances to change that. It challenges us to act selflessly, to work through the insecurities that lead to jealousy, rudeness, and a sense of privilege. It calls us to strive for integrity, emphasizing a spirit of forgiveness, honesty, faith, hope, and endurance. And that’s just one passage. Building a marriage on the foundation of Scripture is a lifetime pursuit. But what a life it promises! Second, we need to lay aside the world’s distorted and perverse concept of marriage. We need to learn to see through the lie that marriage is secondary to our own needs and wants. And the lie that marriage is disposable. We need to remove the word divorce from our vocabulary. Divorce can’t be some trapdoor that’s always nearby in case we want to escape. We need to resolve to make our relationship work through thick and thin, no matter what. We need to determine that because we’ve made a sacred vow, we’re going to stand by our marriage. Jesus was quoting God’s words in Genesis 2:24 when He said, “This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one” (NLT). He added, “Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together” (Matthew 19:6 NLT). Let no one split apart what God has joined together. That doesn’t leave much wiggle room, does it? Winston Churchill said during World War II, “Wars are not won through evacuation.” The same is true of marriage. It’s a commitment until death do us part. Reflection question: What does a healthy, God-honoring marriage look like?

In this conversation, Jay Seegert and Eric Barger discuss the return of Christ, emphasizing the importance of understanding God's plan and the signs that indicate His imminent return. They explore the significance of personal testimonies, the promise of Christ's return, and the current state of the church in relation to eschatology. The discussion highlights the need for believers to be aware of the signs of the times and to live with expectancy for Christ's return. In this conversation, Eric Barger discusses the signs of the times as they relate to biblical prophecy, focusing on themes of deception, apostasy, the rise of false teachers, global unrest, and the increasing acceptance of evil. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing these signs, particularly the significance of Israel's statehood as a prophetic marker, and calls for action within the church to address apathy and share the gospel.

In today's devotional, Derek introduces us to one of the most theologically rich books of the Bible, unpacking the significance of the apostle Paul's words and the gospel's eternal message.In this first chapter, Derek dives deep into Paul's self-description as a servant of Christ and a chosen messenger of God's good news.

Have you ever hunted and hunted for something—maybe your car keys, and you finally find them? The old saying goes (and it's very unhelpful!) that you find them in the last place you look.There's a lot of truth to that.It also is very relevant to our walk with Jesus. Often, we work really hard to solve our own problems, then we give in and ask Jesus for help.Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”As with every other promise in the Bible, the really cool thing about this is, it is true. The promises Jesus has made are literally true. So, for example, if you are looking for a solution to an impossible situation, ask Him. It works!Let's pray.Lord, forgive us for not placing our trust in you all the time. You are our sustainer, and we need to remember that. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

God tells us not to be afraid BUT to trust Him--so fear and faith are opposites. "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go" (Josh 1:9). "Say to those who are fearful-hearted, 'Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God; He will come and save you'" (Isaiah 35:4). "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41:10). "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you" (Isaiah 43:1-2). "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." (2 Tim 1:7). "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you" (Deut 31:6). "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" (Ps 27:1). "I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears." (Ps 34:4). Faith (and trust) work through love, and when we understand His love, we cannot also fear (or doubt): "What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8:31-32). "There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love" (1 John 4:18). "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid" (John 14:27). "...but faith work(s) through love" (Gal 5:6). "...cast(ing) all your care upon Him, for He cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7). "And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him." (Heb 11:6). "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths" (Prov 3:5-6). If you REALLY believe that you have what you ask when you pray, there will be no fear... because you believe you already have it. "For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them" (Matt 11:23-24). "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Heb 11:1). So you should be in rest, no matter what happens between when you ask and when you see it. Even if trials arise, you should still be in rest: "Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work. that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways" (James 1:2-8). "There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His" (Heb 4:9-10). When Satan comes to try to steal from you, resist: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you" (1 Peter 5:8-10). "Resist the devil and he will flee from you" (James 4:7). "Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh and strength to your bones" (Prov 3:7-8). "Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore" (Eph 6:13-14). Lack of fear (and thus, faith) is evidence to Satan that you're going to win: "and not in any way terrified by your adversaries, which is to them a proof of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that from God" (Phil 1:28). "For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith." (1 John 5:4). If it's been a long time coming, do not give up: "Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life" (Prov 13:12). "Let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart" (Gal 6:9). But instead, keep your eyes on the Lord, and not on your problem: David did this, when he encouraged himself in the Lord after Ziklag and his men threatened to stone him: 1 Sam 30:1-8 "Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” (Matt 11:28-30, Msg translation) "Be still and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10) "Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God" (Heb 12:1-2).

Friends of the Rosary,Christ Jesus wants us to redirect our attention to the treasures of eternity in heaven, as we are reading today in the Gospel (Matthew 6:19-23):“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth,where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break in and steal.But store up treasures in heaven,where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal.For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.”Regardless of how exciting and beautiful something is on earth, it is destined to pass away. What doesn't pass is the light of God.Therefore, we rightly set our priorities and understand that what matters is to be filled with the light of the Holy Spirit.In this regard, the Master teaches us:“The lamp of the body is the eye.If your eye is sound, your whole body will be filled with light;but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be in darkness.”Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Jesus said to his disciples:“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth,where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break in and steal.But store up treasures in heaven,where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal.For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.“The lamp of the body is the eye.If your eye is sound, your whole body will be filled with light;but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be in darkness.And if the light in you is darkness, how great will the darkness be.”

Who is this Jesus who asks the most important question we'll ever answer—“Who do you say I am?” In Mark 8:27–38, we see a bold confession, a shocking rebuke, and a call to take up our cross and follow. This week, Pastor Korey unpacks what it means to truly know Jesus—and why the right answer changes everything.

Comment gérez-vous les différences de perspectives au sujet du Saint-Esprit dans votre église ? C'est à cette question que Florent, accompagné de son gendre Derek, va tenter de répondre. Pour ce faire, ils partageront leurs convictions sur ce qui constitue le fondement de l'Église: Christ, les Écritures, et les conditions strictes selon lesquelles l'Église peut — et doit — rester solidement ancrée, quand bien même il y aurait des témoignages personnels perçus différemment au sein de l'assemblée.

God is faithful to His people, even when they have been unfaithful to Him. We'll see this truth in today's study in Isaiah 50 as we study an amazing prophecy of Jesus which proves, not only that He is the promised king, but that He would also suffer for His people and won't divorce them even though they have been unfaithful to their covenant with Him. Join us today in our study in Isaiah 50!  DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    The overarching theme of Isaiah 49-57 is that of the “Suffering Servant”. Think back to our study, yesterday, in Isaiah 49. What were some ways that Isaiah 49 prophesied that the Servant would suffer for His people?  2.    Read Isaiah 50:1. What is the item that the Lord is asking about? What is His point in asking for this? What did the Lord tell Israel in Jeremiah 3:8? How did the podcast explain the juxtaposition of Isaiah 50:1 and Jeremiah 3:8? 3.    In verses 2 & 3, could the Lord carry out the salvation of His people? If so, why “was there no man when...” the Lord came to His people? What does that phrase even mean? Why was there no one to obey the Lord? 4.    In verse 4, once again the Servant is speaking (we know this because the word “GOD” is in all caps, indicating that “GOD” was the Lord and now His servant is speaking). What is the Servant's message for His people in verses 4 & 5? Why do you think He won't “turn back”? How was this evident throughout Jesus' ministry? How is this different from the lack of obedience in the people in verses 2 &3? 5.    What was the Servant's obedience to the Lord in verses 5 &6? What was the price of Jesus' obedience to the Father? How was this obedience demonstrated in Jesus' earthly life? What cost was there in Jesus' obedience? 6.    Read over verses 7-9, how do these verses portray the trust that the Servant has for the Lord? What kind of resolve does this trust strengthen Him with? Read 1st Peter 2:23. How did Peter portray Jesus' trust in the Father? Why is it hard to trust the Father like this, when life doesn't seem to go our way? 7.     Verse 10 calls out to the people to join with the Servant. What should those who walk in darkness do? What does it mean to call upon the Lord? How does Romans 10:13 echo a similar exhortation?  8.    In verse 11, how is a person making their own fire an analogy for manmade religion? In our day and age, how do people seek to provide their own “light”? In verse 11, what is the ultimate fate of those who will not leave their manmade religion and obey the Lord? What torment do you think is being spoken of here? 9.    Think about how you respond to God's message. Are these just words on a paper? Are these just theological ideas to know? Or are these words God's message to you to gather to Him, with His people, that you might be numbered among those in His kingdom?  Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis!

In this episode of Wake Up Look Up, Zach Weihrauch tackles a subtle but powerful form of temptation: the cultural obsession with wealth as entertainment. Sparked by a thought-provoking Atlantic article titled Money Is Ruining Television, Zach explores how modern shows—from glossy dramas to flashy reality TV—are shaping our hearts and values in ways we often don't notice. Could our binge-watching habits be quietly training us to covet more, care less, and trust wealth over God? Jesus had a lot to say about money—and not because it's bad, but because it can become a god. This conversation will challenge you to think more deeply about what you consume, why it matters, and how the gospel gives us a better way.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

Jesus' words of promise in John 14:27-28:“I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid. Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come back to you again.”Jesus offers you a gift not of this world that can only be found in Him. His heavenly peace for your mind and heart can overcome any temporary trouble or fear. The Prince of Peace is with You now and is coming back for You one day to live in His kingdom.What trouble, what fear, are you experiencing today that needs to be exchanged right now for Christ's gift?Jesus' words of promise again from the Message Bible:I'm leaving you well and whole. That's my parting gift to you. Peace. I don't leave you the way you're used to being left—feeling abandoned, bereft. So don't be upset. Don't be distraught. “You've heard me tell you, ‘I'm going away, and I'm coming back.'No matter what you may be walking through today, remember, for the Christ-follower, God's gift of peace is available now and His best is always yet to come.Prayer- “Father, thank You for Your gift of peace of mind and heart. Help me not to look to the world, to not be troubled or afraid, but to look to You and look forward to Your return.”AS ABOVE, SO BELOWAMEN.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Ted Tulibaski from Perham, MN. Ted, your partnership with us through Project23 is helping open ears and loosen tongues with the truth of the gospel. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 7:24-30: And from there he arose and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered a house and did not want anyone to know, yet he could not be hidden. But immediately a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit heard of him and came and fell down at his feet. Now the woman was a Gentile, a Syrophoenician by birth. And she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter. And he said to her, “Let the children be fed first, for it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.” But she answered him, “Yes, Lord; yet even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs.” And he said to her, “For this statement you may go your way; the demon has left your daughter.” And she went home and found the child lying in bed and the demon gone.— Mark 7:24-30 Jesus enters Gentile territory—Tyre and Sidon—away from the Jewish crowds. He tries to lay low. But one woman finds him. A woman with no status in Jewish society. She was a Gentile. A Syrophoenician. An outsider by birth. According to every religious and social system—she didn't belong. She had no reason to approach a Jewish rabbi. No social footing. No spiritual leverage. But she had a desperate need—and a bold faith. And Jesus seems to test that faith with a hard statement: “It's not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs (Gentiles).” But instead of recoiling, she leans in. “Yes, Lord. But even the dogs (Gentiles) eat the crumbs under the table.” It's not a demand. It's a confession. She knows she doesn't deserve anything—but she still believes Jesus has more than enough to meet her needs. And that humility moves Jesus. Her faith—not her status—is what leads to healing. This is a challenge for all of us—especially in a culture obsessed with status, labels, platforms, and recognition. Jesus isn't impressed by credentials. He's not persuaded by accomplishments. He doesn't bend to social influence. He's moved by our faith—humble, honest, surrendered faith. So don't let your status—high or low—define your approach to God. Come like this woman. Come as you are. Come boldly, and believe that even the crumbs from Jesus are enough to change everything. #FaithOverStatus, #JesusRespondsToFaith, #SurrenderedFaith ASK THIS: Do I rely on status more than faith when approaching God? Where do I feel like an outsider spiritually or socially? How does this story challenge my pride? What “crumb” from Jesus am I afraid to ask for today? DO THIS: Come to Jesus today without pretense. Drop your credentials, your insecurities, and your excuses. Just come in faith. PRAY THIS: Jesus, I lay aside everything I think makes me worthy. I come in faith, believing You're more than enough for my deepest need. Amen. PLAY THIS: “Run to the Father” – Cody Carnes.

This is read for you by Bradley Ross, but edits have been made using an AI voice changer, elevenlabs.io, to help differentiate each speaker in the text. The text of the Book of Mormon is from the 1920 edition as republished by Grant Hardy. It differs only slightly from the edition currently in print from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm generally following Lynn and David Rosenvall for identifying speakers.

Week 1 Big Idea: In a world of competing tribal identities, Paul reminds the Thessalonians - and us - that our primary identity as believers is our belonging to God's family, which changes everything about us.Week 2 Big Idea: Just as the early Christians boldly proclaimed Jesus as Lord in a world that worshipped Caesar, we're called to put our hope in Christ's kingdom rather than in political powers or cultural influences that promise to "save" us.Today's text: It's the section of the letter where Paul describes his entrance and strategy when he first arrived in Thessalonica (Acts 17). To better understand this passage in its context, we need to explain the situation in this city.Thessalonica was a thriving Roman city—a hub for trade, politics, and ideas. Like other major cities in the empire, it attracted traveling philosophers, orators, and moral teachers. These figures shaped public thought, civic identity, and moral behavior. We see this in Acts 17First, Paul was in Thessalonica (v1-9)Then went to Berea (v10-15)Then to Athens (v16-33)Acts 17:18 (NLT) 18 He also had a debate with some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers. When he told them about Jesus and his resurrection, they said, “What's this babbler trying to say with these strange ideas he's picked up?” Others said, “He seems to be preaching about some foreign gods.”To the average person in Thess, Paul would have looked like one of these philosophersToday we'll see: What Paul brought was greater than philosophy.Let me explain:Four Types of Philosophers in Paul's day:Epicureans – The Seekers of PleasureTaught that pleasure (understood as peace of mind and freedom from pain) was the greatest good.Focus: Avoid pain, enjoy simple pleasures, carpe diem (sieze the day).In today's world: Think of voices that say, “Just protect your peace,” or “Do whatever makes you happy,” often divorced from accountability or eternal truth.Ex: Oprah Winfrey“Life is not an obligation, but an opportunity to be whoever and whatever you want. ”“God is a feeling experience, not a believing experience.”Ex: Deepak Chopra“The universe has no fixed agenda. It responds to your intentions.”Stoics – The Disciplinarians of VirtueTaught that virtue is the highest good and that people should live according to reason.Focus: Self-control, inner peace, moral duty, acceptance of...

The man we're going to meet today on Bridging the Gap had a withered hand, but after he stepped out in faith, he experienced a wonderful touch from God. Our study of Mark takes us to the last several verses of chapter two and the beginning of chapter three, where the Pharisees are keeping a close eye on Jesus.

Basic Bible Study | Matthew, Mark, Luke & John (Part 4) This is part 4 of 10 In today's podcast, join Amy and Robyn as they continue their discussion in Matthew, Mark, Luke & John. Here is a breakdown of what was discussed: - fasting - we need to keep our hearts pliable so we can accept Jesus' life changing message - Jesus healed a lame man by the pool of Bethesda - Pharisees were more concerned with petty rules than the life & health of a human being - Jesus does not allow unbelieving people to see death as the end of it all. There is a judgment to face. “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ABOUT Opening a Bible for the first time can be intimidating.

Up To Jerusalem - Teaching 19 Scripture: Matthew 28:9-10, 1 Corinthians 15:5, Luke 24:13-49, John 20:19-23 Today we continue with our look at the events of the day of Jesus' resurrection and those who saw Him that day.  Pastor talks about the Gospel writers (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) and that their stories were written as eye witnesses .  These are the accounts of people who were there. Last class we looked at those who had seen Jesus first that morning, it was the women who came to the tomb and saw Him, but the first of His disciples to see Him was Peter - the one who had denied knowing Jesus 3 times during His arrest and trial. Consider the emotions that had to be going on in Peter's head and heart since his denial of Jesus and now he's face to face, one on one with Him. (1 Corinthains 15:5) What was this meeting like….very personal… Then Jesus meet s2 men on the Road to Emmaus, family members, but they didn't recognize Him. They tell Him all about the events of the women and that they didn't know what to think of it all. They were doubtful about the truth of what they had heard and Jesus says, “How foolish you are and how slow you are in believing all the prophets have spoken.” And then He explains to them what was said in all the scriptures concerning Himself.  A crash course in biblical truth! That had to be an amazing conversation! At dinner with them, Jesus breaks the bread and gives thanks and suddenly they realize that the man they've been with is the risen Jesus! And then He vanishes. The men run back to Jerusalem to where the disciples and others are staying to tell them that Jesus is indeed risen. As they begin to share their story suddenly Jesus is there with them and says, “Peace be with you.”  Jesus startles the group and some think they are seeing a ghost, and so Jesus encourages them to touch Him and then He asks for something to eat. Yet some still were struggling to believe what they were seeing and then Jesus opened their minds so they could understand the scriptures. Jesus goes on to share the “cliff notes” of the Hebrew Scriptures to them:     ⁃    Messiah will suffer     ⁃    Messiah will rise from the dead on the third day     ⁃    Repentance for the forgiveness of sin will be preached in His Name     ⁃    Preached to all nations     ⁃    Beginning at Jerusalem The resurrection of Jesus is a call to repentance for the forgiveness of sins, to repent and believe the Good News. This message is for us today. A message we are to respond to. Not with half-hearted intellectual belief. This is about a lifetime commitment and coming to grips with the Living God who gave His only Son for us, raised Him from the grave and who will come back as ruler of all - Jesus. Jesus calls us to repentance and to believe the Good News of who He is.  We can see we are sinners and need a Savior and Jesus calls us to repent = change of mind and change of direction (a U-turn). How we live is a response to knowing we have a Savior and wanting to live for Him because God loved me so much He gave His only Son die for my sins, and so then I want my life to give glory to Him. Repent and believe is not a popular message in the American church today - It's not a message people want to hear. We tend to prefer that God approve of what we do rather than us to approve what God says. And what God says is what Jesus speaks. And He calls us to repent for the forgiveness of sin and proclaim that to all the world! Then Jesus tells them they are witnesses to these things. We are witnesses too. We can all share how Jesus has changed our lives. Then Jesus tells them that the Holy Spirit is coming. The resurrection of Jesus ushers in a new way of God dwelling with His people. They are told to wait there until they receive what God has promised to give them. The Holy Spirit - whom the Father had promised. Resurrection Day is the most remarkable day in history. A glorious day!  Jesus continues to open peoples minds to the scriptures today and continues to draw us to Himself.  And the Holy Spirit continues to be poured out!
