Is anyone really out there, or am I just chatting to a very articulate hallucination?In this episode, we juggle Descartes' lonely thinker, Kant's phenomena vs noumena, and Wittgenstein's ban on private language. If all we ever have are mental snapshots of the world, what right do we have to talk about some “real” thing behind them?On the way we hit: Private language & inner voices – are we talking to others, or just different bits of ourselves? Postmodernism & perspective – if everyone reads the world differently, do we still share a world at all? Ethics after God – without a cosmic referee, how do we avoid moral chaos? Featuring Red Dwarf's “Better Than Life,” a brain that sabotages its own happiness, Philip K. Dick and Robert Heinlein as unlikely comrades, and the comforting thought that if this is your solipsistic universe, you've got some serious explaining to do about Hitler, Trump, and broken-down cars full of kids.Plug in and decide whether “we” are really in this together – or whether “we” is already one person too many.

Fleeing through the wilderness, David dares to sing that God's steadfast love is better than life itself. This message from our series "From the Outside In" shows how the King who thirsted on a cross makes that song true for everyone who takes refuge in Him.

Sermon from the Gathering church in the YMCA for June 21, 2026.

Do you remember a time when you loved a person so deeply that it hurt to be away from him or her? This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice we are studying a love song--but not a love song to another person. Psalm 63 is a love song to God.

David tells us about something that is "BETTER THAN LIFE". He comes up with a valuation that declares this particular "thing", God's faithful relationship with people, is WORTH MORE than life itself.It is an an audacious e-value-ation. See if you agree with David: God's steadfast love to humans is more valuable than LIFE ITSELF. Join me for 6 minutes in Psalm 63: https://youtu.be/fmps48w1pyM

Do you ever feel spiritually exhausted? Like you're living in a desert wasteland? It could be due to devastating news, unexpected conflict, unrelenting sorrow or just the weightiness of life's circumstances. It's from that place of weariness that Psalm 63 was written. The heartbeat of this song isn't a change of circumstances but a declaration of confidence in God's extravagant, self-giving love. A love that satisfies and sustains, so much so the psalmist says it's better than life itself. He wants you to say it too.

Doug Naylor: How Red Dwarf Made TV Better Than LifeGet ready for a sci-fi-soaked comedy ride as Steve Otis Gunn chats with writer and co-creator of Red Dwarf, Doug Naylor. From the early days of radio comedy and Spitting Image to building one of Britain's most enduring cult TV shows, Doug brings thoughtful, funny stories from a lifetime in entertainment. They explore Doug's path through sketch shows, number one singles, and the moment Red Dwarf finally became the show he'd imagined. Doug spills the beans on why the American remake went sideways, and how he'll never get used to the strange feeling of meeting fans who say the show helped them through tough times.They also touch on the big one: the ambitious new Red Dwarf project that was suddenly cancelled — and what Doug plans to do with it next.

Your Nightly Prayer

Psalm 63 • Chad Francis

Psalm 63 teaches us that the secret to satisfaction in life is to always be desperate for God, delight in God, and depend on God.

In this sermon, pastor Keith reminds us that God's steadfast love is better than life. The true joy and lasting peace that we crave, that was meant to satisfy all our desires, is found in Jesus Christ.

Because the Lord's love alone will satisfy us, we must earnestly seek him, joyfully praise him, and persistently cling to him.---We desire to see the Gospel saturate a people, awakening them by the glory of God to treasure Jesus as better.For more Gospel-centered teaching and resources, including audio and video downloads of our sermons, please visit our website: http://www.thewellchurchok.com/resourcesInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/thewellchurchokFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/thewellchurchok

Jason and Roger conclude a four-part March series called Our Favorite Psalms. In this fourth and final episode, one of Jason's favorites: Psalm 63. PREVIOUSLY IN THIS SERIES: Psalm 23: The LORD is My Shepherd Psalm 34: Taste and See That the LORD is Good Psalm 73: But God is the Strength of My Heart

After another unexpected health setback, I joined my husband and others during a retreat in the mountains. I trudged up the wooden staircase that led to the tiny church on the top of a hill. Alone in the dark, I stopped to rest on a splintered step. “Help me, Lord,” I whispered as the music began. I walked slowly until I stepped into the small room. I breathed through the lingering pain, grateful that God hears us in the wilderness! Some of the most intimate moments of worshiping God recorded in Scripture took place in the wilderness. While hiding in the Desert of Judah and most likely on the run from his son Absalom, King David sang: “You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you” (Psalm 63:1). Having experienced God’s power and glory, David deemed God’s love as “better than life” (v. 3), and it was the reason he committed to a lifetime of worship—even while in the wilderness (vv. 2-6). He said, “Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your right hand upholds me” (vv. 7-8). Like David, regardless of our circumstances or the fierceness of those standing against us, we can demonstrate confidence in God by praising Him (v. 11). Though we’ll suffer, sometimes by no fault of our own, we can trust that God’s love is always better than life.
