Hey Fam! This week's episode is one I've been sitting with for a while, because it's straight from something God has been working on in my own heart, learning to bring everything to His feet.If you've ever found yourself running around doing all the things for God but feeling distant from Him, you're not alone. I've been there, serving, pouring out, checking every box, and still missing that closeness my soul was craving.In this episode, we're looking at Mary and Martha's story in Luke 10, and what it really means to choose intimacy before activity. Whether you're in a busy season, or just longing for more of His presence, my prayer is that this conversation gives you permission to slow down, and draw near.This one is full of gentle conviction, and the reminder that you're always welcome at His feet. Share this with a friend who's been feeling tired, or distant from the Lord, they might need this just as much as you do.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey friends! This week we're getting real about the double-edged sword that is social media. Yes, there are so many benefits to social media, but if you aren't intentional about how you use it...theres a good chance it's doing more harm than good. I'm sharing my own struggles with distraction, comparison, and that constant pull to be “on”. We'll talk about the dangers of overconsumption, how it's impacting our faith, attention spans, and even our patience (Amazon Prime, anyone?). I share personal stories (including my AI bunny fail

Did you know that even secular individuals hold religious-like beliefs? Dr. Sri examines the secular world's values, promises of salvation, and utopian ideals, and contrasts these with the core tenets of the Gospel. He revisits the five key aspects of the Kerygma—relationship, rebellion, reconciliation, recreation, and response—and explains how the secular vision borrows from and distorts these principles. _ _ For full shownotes, visit Ascensionpress.com/Allthingscatholic, or text ALLTHINGSCATHOLIC to 33-777 for weekly shownotes sent to your inbox.

Redemption E10 — We've made it to the end of our series on redemption, where we'll look at two last examples of redemption in the New Testament.

In this episode, Jon and Tim explore 1 Peter 1 and Hebrews 9, which connect Jesus' redemption to sacrifices at the center of Passover and the Day of Atonement. CHAPTERSSeries Recap of Redemption (0:00-18:04)Redeemed by the Blood in 1 Peter 1 (18:04-32:46)An Eternal Redemption in Hebrews 9 (32:46-55:27)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESCheck out our Leviticus Scroll series.The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S.

Can a Catholic marry a baptized non-Catholic or a non-baptized person? Fr. Mike breaks down the Church's teaching on mixed marriages and disparity of cult. The Catechism teaches us that while a difference in religion “does not constitute an insurmountable obstacle for marriage,” it can often be a source of tension in marriage and present significant challenges when raising a family. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1625-1632. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Genesis 8V13 - 9V1 with Tyler Staton Genesis is where the Scriptures begin—introducing God as Creator and laying the foundation for the rest of the biblical story. This summer, we'll teach through the opening chapters verse by verse. These texts reveal the pattern of blessing, rebellion, and response that runs throughout the Bible. In them, we see the origins of both human failure and God's redemptive promise. https://bridgetown.church/teaching

Purchase A Jesus-Shaped Life here. Today's conversation on Back Porch Theology is a sequel because Alli and I got to hang out with one of our dear friends, Professor Kristi McLelland. This snippet from Kristi's new book, Feasting on God's Word, will give you a glimpse of the adventure we're diving into today: “Life is both long and short. It has high and low moments. The promise of the Bible is that God is with us in and through it all. He has never been afraid of entering into the dust and ruin; restoration renewal, and repair are part of who He is.” We're diving in pretty deep today y'all, so I'd encourage you to lean in and listen when you've got some breathing space and a little elbow room for the great, big, beautiful – albeit possibly weary – heart of yours. So please grab your favorite beverage, some yummy snacks, and that divine love letter we call the Bible. Then pull up a chair and prop your feet up on the porch with Alli, Professor Kristi, and me – we're grateful you've carved out the time and space to be with us today.

Have you read the whole Bible? That was the question my guest Tara-Leigh Cobble struggled to answer while talking to a pastor friend. As she thought back through her life growing up in a Christian home, being involved in church and now working in full-time ministry, she couldn't say for sure that she'd really read ALL of the Bible.  So she started a chronological reading plan to read it all, even the genealogies. But as she read, Tara had to wrestle with stories she'd never heard from the pulpit.   “I was questioning the Bible because I was reading the Bible and I was questioning not is this true, but is he good? Yeah. Do I like him? My mentor said the places where you have difficulty with God lean in because the good stuff is on the other side of this. The good stuff is on the other side of this struggle.” After completing her own journey of reading the full Bible and seeing scripture and God in a new way, Tara-Leigh created The Bible Recap podcast and book to help others encounter God through his Word. And she's here to give us a pep talk for reading the full Bible too.  “You behold the living God in scripture, and all of a sudden, instead of feeling burdened by your to-do list, you're going to be buoyed and carried along by the love of the God of the universe and by the person of who he is. And that's what I want you to take away from scripture every day, a vision of the God who loves you and who has already accomplished all that he requires of you.” Summer of Mentorship Discussion questions PDF  Connect with Tara-Leigh:  Website:  www.taraleighcobble.com  The Bible Recap: www.thebiblerecap.com  Instagram: @taraleighcobble  Links Mentioned:   The Bible Recap: A One-Year Guide to Reading and Understanding the Entire Bible Listen to the Bible on YouVersion Featured Sponsors:  Thrive Market: Go to ThriveMarket.com/DMA and start saving today.

It's a must-read that every person, religious and non-religious, should buy and peruse every night before bed. It'll make you think harder, pray more ardently, and understand your civilization better." — Ben Shapiro, host of "The Ben Shapiro Show" "Dennis Prager's commentary on Exodus will rank among the greatest modern Torah commentaries. That is how important I think it is. And I am clearly not alone... It might well be on its way to becoming the most widely read Torah commentary of our time—and by non-Jews as well as by Jews." — Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, bestselling author of Jewish Literacy Why do so many people think the Bible, the most influential book in world history, is outdated? Why do our friends and neighbors – and sometimes we ourselves – dismiss the Bible as irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things? This explanation of the Book of Exodus, the second book of the Bible, will demonstrate that the Bible is not only powerfully relevant to today's issues, but completely consistent with rational thought. Do you think the Bible permitted the trans-Atlantic slave trade? You won't after reading this book. Do you struggle to love your parents? If you do, you need this book. Do you doubt the existence of God because belief in God is “irrational?” This book will give you reason after reason to rethink your doubts. The title of this commentary is, “The Rational Bible” because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. As Prager says, “If something I write does not make rational sense, I have not done my job.” The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible to people of every faith, and no faith. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world and to your life. His goal: to change your mind – and then change your life.   Highly Recommended by ACU.

This explanation of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible, demonstrates clearly and powerfully that the opposite is true. The Bible remains profoundly relevant—both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life. It is the greatest moral guide and source of wisdom ever written. Do you doubt the existence of God because you think believing in God is irrational? This book will give you many reasons to rethink your doubts. Do you think faith and science are in conflict? You won't after reading this commentary on Genesis. Do you come from a dysfunctional family? It may comfort you to know that every family discussed in Genesis was highly dysfunctional! The title of this commentary is “The Rational Bible” because its approach is entirely reason-based. The reader is never asked to accept anything on faith alone. In Dennis Prager's words, “If something I write is not rational, I have not done my job.” The Rational Bible is the fruit of Dennis Prager's forty years of teaching the Bible—whose Hebrew grammar and vocabulary he has mastered—to people of every faith and no faith at all. On virtually every page, you will discover how the text relates to the contemporary world in general and to you personally. His goal: to change your mind—and, as a result, to change your life.   The Rational Bible: Deuteronomy: God, Blessings, and Curses by Dennis Prager Is the Bible, the most influential book in world history, still relevant? Why do people dismiss it as being irrelevant, irrational, immoral, or all of these things? This explanation of the Book of Deuteronomy, the fifth book of the Bible, will demonstrate how it remains profoundly relevant - both to the great issues of our day and to each individual life.

Gedaliah wanted peace for the people and constantly negotiated for their welfare peacefully submitting to Babylon. However, as he was traveling among the towns of Judah, he was murdered by one of his friends, Ishmael.

Guest Bio: Ellen Wildman holds a BA in Bible and Ministry to Women from Moody Bible Institute and a MA in Biblical and Theological Studies from Denver Seminary. Through her writing, she seeks to create space for nuance, personality, and joy within theology, believing that Christian academia has room for everyone. Her first book, Single and Not Sorry, was an Amazon bestseller in Dating and Relationships for six weeks. Ellen lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with her spicy cat, Rey.  Show Summary: When someone compliments you, how do you usually respond? During those moments, it's easy to brush off the kind words or ignore the encouragement. When it comes to our body and appearance, we often have more negative thoughts than positive. This has led Ellen Wildman on a journey to discover how God views His creation and how that can impact the way we view our own bodies. Join host Eryn Eddy Adkins and Ellen as they talk about what the Bible says when it comes to our earthly bodies. You don't want to miss this God Hears Her conversation about body image.   Notes and Quotes:  “The biggest lie is that our body is disconnected from God and disconnected from our faith.” —Ellen Wildman  “Every part of me is made in God's image, including my body.”—Ellen Wildman  “Sometimes God is calling me to rest in Him and it's not by reading Scripture, but my giving me a visual of resting in His arms.” —Eryn Eddy Adkins  “I will never fully be able to accept my body outside of seeing it as God's creation.” —Ellen Wildman  “The more I thought about being made in God's image, the more I realized that it really affected every part of my life. It helps me to see my body as beloved and as good because it was made by God, designed by Him, and blessed by Him. It also helps me to give others more grace because I can see them as being made in God's image.” —Ellen Wildman  “Even those who fit into the ‘ideal' [image] are struggling with the same things.” —Ellen Wildman  “It's not people that have created these [standards]. Maybe we perpetuate the standards a bit, but we haven't created and maintained them. It's really diet culture and the industry of always making us feel less-than. To me, that feels really unifying in that we can unify against them instead of against each other.” —Ellen Wildman  “The more I have worked on how I see my own body and how I feel at home in my own body has changed the way that I speak to others because I want them to feel this way too.” —Ellen Wildman  “The way we see our bodies is important, but it''s not the most important thing.” —Ellen Wildman  “Reflecting God is an essential part of who I am. I am made in His image. His living, breathing handiwork.” —Ellen Wildman  “God created everything around me, but He only created humans in His image. We are the only thing that He created in His image. Why did He do that? What does He want me to do with that?” —Ellen Wildman  “The idea of being at home in your body helps us believe that we are worthy of self-discovery, and we are worthy of feeling at home in our bodies with God's help.” —Ellen Wildman   Verses:  Luke 8:1-2 Mary Magdalene being healed by Jesus Psalm 4:8  Genesis 1:27 Judges 4:4-5  Judges 5:3  Related Episodes: GHH Ep 24 – When We Feel We Aren't Enough with Laura Smith: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/when-we-feel-we-arent-enough/ GHH Ep 44 – The Comparison Trap with Bree Rostic: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/the-comparison-trap-with-bree-rostic/ GHH Ep 118 – Reimagining Age with Eryn & Elisa: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/reimagining-age/ GHH Ep 125 – Your True Worth with Cassandra Speer: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/your-true-worth/ GHH Ep 167 – Aging Gratefully with Heather Creekmore: https://godhearsher.org/podcast/aging-gratefully/  Links:  Already Whole Devotional: https://www.amazon.com/Already-Whole-Devotions-Being-Home-ebook/dp/B0F55RMYZN Ellen Wildman's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellen_wildman_so/ Ellen Wildman's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ellen.wildman.16 Unshakable Moxie BOGO Deal: https://go.odb.org/bogoGod Loves Her Devotional: https://a.co/d/7F8R0qCGod Hears Her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/godhearsher/?hl=en God Hears Her Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GodHearsHer God Hears Her website: https://go.odb.org/ghh191  Subscribe to the God Hears Her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@GodHearsHerODBM Share Your Story:  https://godhearsher.org/share-your-story/ God Hears Her email sign-up: https://go.odb.org/ghh-sign-upsfmc191  Subscribe on iTunes! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/god-hears-her-podcast/id1511046507?utm_source=applemusic&utm_medium=godhearsher&utm_campaign=podcast Shop God Hears Her books and resources: https://go.odb.org/ghh-shop191  Unshakable Moxie Series: https://read.odb.org/unshakable-moxie/ Elisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisamorganauthor/ Eryn's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eryneddy/ Vivian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivmabuni/ Our ...

Matthew presents Jesus Christ as the Jesus as the Mashiach Nagid, the Messiah the King, the Lion of the tribe of Judah. It was written by a Jew, to Jews, about a Jew. This book of the Bible uses more Old Testament quotes than any other. The Gospel of Matthew emphasizes the saying of Jesus, including ten parables not found in any other Gospel. After first establishing the royal genealogy, he then goes on to focus on the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies. Matthew uses the term "fulfilled" 82 times! Many scholars now believe that the Gospel was written before Paul's first imprisonment of 57-60 A.D., and that virtually all of the New Testament books were written before Jerusalem's destruction. This study contains 24 hours of verse by verse teachings. Copyright © 11-01-2006 Recorded: 2006
