In this week's episode of The Bible for Normal People, Jared continues his tour through the history of modern biblical scholarship, exploring five (or six) more “aha moments” that transformed how scholars understand the Bible. From Rudolf Bultmann's challenge to interpret ancient texts in a modern world and the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, to new insights about editorial shaping, literary criticism, and the role of readers themselves, he traces how scholarship increasingly revealed the Bible as a dynamic, evolving tradition. Along the way, Jared highlights the rise of feminist, liberationist, and postmodern approaches, as well as the New Perspective on Paul, showing how fresh historical evidence and diverse voices have reshaped long-held assumptions about scripture, interpretation, and faith. Together, these developments invite listeners to approach the Bible with greater historical awareness, intellectual humility, and curiosity about the communities that produced, preserved, and continue to interpret these sacred texts.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
We conclude the daily Korbanot section with "Rabbi Yishmael Omer" – a Berayta (passage by a Tanna) authored by the great sage Rabbi Yishmael, listing the thirteen methods with which the Sages extracted Halachot from the text of the Torah. If one wishes to extract oil from the ground, it is not enough to know where the oil is located – he needs the right machinery to extract the oil from beneath the ground. Likewise, to deduce Halachot from the Biblical text, one needs to have the "tools," the rules by which the Halacha can be determined based on a careful analysis of the text. The first of these "tools" is Kal Va'homer, whereby a conclusion is reached through logical deduction, by noting that the Halacha applies in a less intuitive context. An analogy would be a person concluding that he can lift a certain heavy object after seeing that someone weaker than him was able to lift it. An example of a Kal Va'homer in the Torah is G-d's announcement of Miriam's punishment for speaking Lashon Ha'ra. He said that if Miriam's father had angrily scorned her, she would be ashamed for an entire week, so certainly, now that Hashem has scorned her by having her stricken with Sara'at, she should remain outside the camp for a week (Bamidbar 12:14). The second of Rabbi Yishmael's thirteen methods is Gezera Shava – extending a Halacha that applies in one context to a different context on the basis of a common word shared by these two areas of Halacha. Likely the most famous Gezera Shava is the connection drawn by the Sages between Pesach and Sukkot. The Torah establishes an obligation to eat Masa on the night of Pesach, the 15 th of Nissan, and the Sages deduced that on the first night of Sukkot one is similarly required to eat bread in the Sukka. As the Torah requires observing Pesach on "Hamisha Asar" – the "15 th " of Nissan, and it requires observing Sukkot on "Hamisha Asar" – the 15 th of Tishreh, we may infer that the obligation that applies on the night of Pesach applies also on Sukkot. Hence, one must eat bread in the Sukka on the first night of Sukkot just as one must eat Masa on the first night of Pesach. (Throughout the rest of Sukkot, although one who wishes to eat bread must do so in the Sukka, he does not have an obligation to eat bread in the Sukka; this obligation applies only on the first night.) The Tur writes that we recite this Berayta at the end of the Korbanot section between it is the introduction to Torat Kohanim – the Halachic Midrash on the Book of Vayikra, which focuses on the sacrifices, and is thus relevant to the topic of sacrifices. Furthermore, this Berayta appears in the Gemara (Yoma 33a), and thus by incorporating it as part of our daily prayer service, we ensure to learn some Gemara each day (just as reciting Ezehu Mekoman each day ensures the daily study of Mishna).

In this Bible Story, we watch the fragile kingdom of Jeroboam descend into idolatry and pride. Jeroboam erects altars of golden calves and establishes pagan priests. The Lord sends a man from Judah to rebuke him, but his disobedience does not cease. This story is inspired by 1 Kings 12:25-13:8 & 13:33-34. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 1 Kings 12:28 from the King James Version.Episode 118: Jeroboam, Israel's new king, built a new capital in Shechem to separate themselves from Judah. However, because the temple of God was in Judah, people would still travel from his kingdom to worship in Judah. Jeroboam feared this would lead to the loss of his kingdom and his life. So he, like Aaron so many years before, made two golden calves and introduced them as Israel's new gods. Slowly Jeroboam added more and more idols into Israel's public worship. God would not stand for the corruption of His people and sent a prophet to let him know what would become of his idolatrous altar.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

My Struggle with Approval Addiction | Let it go Two | Rick Atchley by The Hills Church
How do you respond to fear—do you withdraw, distract yourself, or try to regain control? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds believers that the right response to fear is neither surrender nor avoidance, but overcoming fear through faith and obedience to God's Word. Scripture paints the picture of a life anchored in trust: the one who puts confidence in the Lord is like a tree planted by water—steady in heat, resilient in drought, and fruitful no matter the season (Jeremiah 17:7–8). Dr. Youssef exposes one of fear's most common roots: the loss of control. Whether it's finances, relationships, health, or the future, we often try to fix fear by tightening our grip—only to discover that control never produces peace. But Jesus offers a different kind of security: “My peace I give you… Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). And God promises a sure foundation for those who rely on Him—one that silences panic when everything else shakes (Isaiah 28:16). This devotional will help you trade anxiety for assurance by surrendering your circumstances to the God who is truly in control. Prayer: God, help me to respond to fear with faith in You and obedience to Your Word. Help me to remember that I can rest in You because You are in control. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety” (Psalm 4:8). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

What if humanity once shared a deeper connection to truth, God, and each other — a natural state that existed before religion became divided? In this thought-provoking episode, Aba Al-Sadiq explores the ancient concept of Fitra — the original divine nature of mankind spoken about in Islam and echoed across multiple world religions and spiritual traditions. Through the Quran, Hadith, Biblical passages, and hidden mystical teachings, this episode uncovers the forgotten meaning of human nature, truth, purity, and spiritual perception. Journey through powerful discussions surrounding the Tower of Babel, the origin of language, the Garden of Eden, heart-based communication, dreams, divine inspiration, and the lost connection between humanity and God. This episode connects Islamic theology, spirituality, Babylon, Adam and Eve, prophecy, consciousness, and ancient wisdom traditions in a way rarely discussed. If you are interested in religion, spirituality, Islam, hidden history, esoteric knowledge, the Mahdi, consciousness, or the mysteries of human nature, this is an episode you do not want to miss.
Is self-love biblical? After discovering a surprising verse in Proverbs 19:8, Shanda takes a deep dive into what Scripture really says about loving yourself. In a culture that constantly tells us to prioritize self-love, self-care, and self-acceptance, Christians must ask whether these messages align with God's Word. In this episode, Shanda explores the difference between cultural self-love and biblical wisdom, examines passages often used to support self-love, discusses how theologians have understood the concept throughout church history, and explains why Scripture consistently points us toward loving God first. You'll also hear a special Father's Day reflection as Shanda shares personal stories about her dad and the vital role fathers play in the lives of their children. If you've ever wondered whether self-love belongs in the Christian life—or if there's a better biblical framework for thinking about identity, purpose, and love—this episode is for you.

In this sermon on Romans 14:1–6 titled “Sabbath and Special Days,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones offers that Paul is not addressing the importance of observation of the Sabbath since that has been established in Scripture for all time. He provides Scriptural support for this and offers up a question that has been discussed in Christian circles often since the early church: what day of the week is supposed to be set aside for the Sabbath – Saturday or Sunday? He references Biblical evidence for the day of the week that Christians used to meet on, as well as historical evidences from writings that are outside of Scripture. How do Christians today make the right choice about the day to meet? To answer this, Dr. Lloyd-Jones reminds that the early church would not have changed the day of the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday arbitrarily— he argues that they must have received a revelation that it was good to change it. However, he also states that it is not an issue over which Christians should divide. He addresses extreme Sabbatarianism, a view that is very literal about how the Sabbath day should be observed, and provides helpful points to consider when thinking through it. In echoing Paul, he concluded that Christians are to be fully persuaded in their own mind from Scripture about which decision is correct.

We may wish maturity came instantly, but the truth is simple: growth takes work—and it requires patience, persistence, and sacrifice. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef compares spiritual formation to athletic training: no champion wins by coasting, and no believer grows into Christlikeness without intentional discipline. Paul described his own commitment clearly—he refused to run aimlessly or fight without purpose. Instead, he practiced self-control so he would not be disqualified from the prize (1 Corinthians 9:26–27). Dr. Youssef warns that when we stop stretching, we don't stay neutral—we stagnate. And when we choose deliberate disobedience, it reveals pride. But choosing obedience is the mark of humility, and God promises real fruit from that posture—riches, honor, and life (Proverbs 22:4). This devotional also reassures you that submission is not weakness. When you humble yourself under God's mighty hand, He will lift you up in His timing—and you can cast every anxiety on Him because He cares for you (1 Peter 5:6–7). As you trust His plan, even when it seems impossible, God will grow you to heights only He knew you could reach. Prayer: Lord, help me resist the temptation to do what looks easiest and instead always obey Your voice. Strengthen me that I may fulfill Your work. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me” (Matthew 10:38). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

Can women be pastors? What does the Bible actually teach about female leadership in the Church? In today's episode we sit down with biblical scholar Dan Lewis to explore one of the most debated topics in Christianity today: female pastors and women in ministry.Together, we examine key Bible passages, church history, and natural theology to understand the strongest arguments for and against women serving as pastors. Whether you're a Christian, a skeptic, a Gen Z believer, or someone struggling with faith and searching for answers, this conversation will challenge you to think deeply about Scripture and Christian doctrine. We discuss passages such as 1 Timothy 2, the role of women in the early church, biblical interpretation, church tradition, and how Christians should approach difficult theological questions with humility and truth.If you're interested in Christian apologetics, biblical theology, church history, discipleship, faith and culture, or understanding controversial topics from a biblical perspective, this episode is for you.

There is a silent but devastating epidemic quietly gutting men who look completely put together from the outside — men who have built careers, shown up for their families, and sat in church pews for twenty years without ever genuinely answering the question that matters most. The crisis is not happening in the wreckage of obviously broken lives.

A breathtaking monastery perched on a cliff in Portugal offers a stunning view—but reaching it requires being hoisted in a wicker basket by an aged monk. When a nervous visitor asked how often the rope was replaced, the monk replied, “Each time the old rope breaks.” That answer captures the dread many people live with every day: the fear that everything could collapse at any moment. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts that kind of anxiety—fear, doubt, and worry that can paralyze even believers. The liberating Truth is this: God holds the rope of your life. His protection is not flimsy, and His care is not distracted. Nothing is strong enough to pull you out of His shelter. Dr. Youssef anchors this encouragement in Scripture: nothing—trouble, hardship, persecution, danger—can separate you from the love of Christ, and in Him you are more than a conqueror (Romans 8:35, 37). Jesus also assures us that the Father's care is so detailed that even the hairs on our head are numbered—and we are worth far more than sparrows (Matthew 10:30–31). When anxiety rises, pause and remember: God is aware of you, He loves you, and He has purpose for your days. Seek first His Kingdom, trust Him fully, and ask Him to teach you to number your days with wisdom (Psalm 90:12). Prayer: Lord, thank You that You have a wonderful plan for all my days. I lay my fear and anxiety down before You and receive Your peace today. May I serve Your Kingdom purposes with my every breath and know the joy of living for You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “[D]o not worry about your life, . . . Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them.

In this episode, we examine a striking shift in biblical scholarship: fewer and fewer experts now affirm that Jesus is the only true God. I compare two major surveys published in 2025 that reveal the same trend among everyday American Bible readers — a clear majority no longer believe Jesus is God. At the same time, interest in Unitarianism is surging.

Many writers assume that Christian stories are defined by clean content, religious themes, or explicit references to faith. But a Christian worldview is not a genre.In this episode of The Storyteller's Mission, Zena Dell Lowe explains why many faith-based stories feel preachy, emotionally shallow, or dramatically ineffective despite their good intentions. More importantly, she reveals how writers can create stories that communicate biblical truth at a deep structural level without relying on overt religious content.Through examples from Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters, and modern storytelling trends, you'll discover the difference between worldview and genre, truth and signaling, and why some secular stories often resonate more deeply than many faith-based films.Topics Covered:• Christian worldview vs Christian genre • Why faith-based films often struggle • Storytelling and moral truth • Die Hard and biblical morality • Lethal Weapon as moral storytelling • Principles vs rules in story • The problem with preachy writing • Writing stories that resonate • Biblical worldview in screenwriting • Christian storytelling and cultureCHAPTERS00:00 A Secular Story Can Tell More Truth 01:12 What People Mean by "Christian Film" 02:00 Why Die Hard Matters 03:00 Principles vs Rules 05:30 Compassion vs Justice 06:30 What a Worldview Really Is 07:10 Genre vs Worldview 08:20 The Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters Example 10:30 Why Nuance Matters 11:10 Secular Stories and Biblical Truth 11:25 Lethal Weapon vs Modern Storytelling 12:40 The Postmodern Worldview Shift 14:00 What Writing a Christian Worldview Actually Means 15:25 Stop Trying to Write Christian Stories 15:50 Why the Faith-Based Industry Struggles 17:35 What This Means for Writers 19:45 We Need More Truthful StoriesWatch this episode on YouTubeFree Resources for Writers:Seven Deadly Plot Points FREE TRAINING VIDEO Free Video Tutorial for ScreenwritingSign up for The Storyteller's Digest, my exclusive bi-monthly newsletter for writers and storytellers.

Episode: Deleting Dementia — The Global Agenda to Put Patients to Sleep The medical profession has officially given up on diseases like dementia and severe mental illness. Instead of seeking real solutions, their final answer is simple: eliminate the patient. In this controversial "Filthy Friday" episode of Hardcore Christianity, Brother Mike celebrates his silver anniversary on the radio by tackling a chilling new frontier in the battle for human life. Pulling back the curtain on New Jersey’s recently introduced Senate Bill 4186, Brother Mike exposes the rise of DSADs (Dementia-Specific Advanced Directives). Under the guise of "comfort feeding only," these directives legally authorize caregivers to withhold lifesaving artificial nutrition, essentially starving vulnerable dementia patients to death. But this is just the beginning. From Europe to Canada, full-blown euthanasia is rapidly expanding to cover patients with chronic conditions like borderline personality disorder, schizophrenia, and severe psychosis. Why? Because the insurance carriers and corporate medical systems care more about protecting their bottom line than protecting human dignity. Brother Mike exposes the spiritual rot driving this agenda and reveals how the Bible predicted this exact hour: The Propagation of Deception: Examine 2 Timothy 3 to understand how the scriptures warned that in the last days, evil men and seducers would wax worse and worse, actively deceiving and being completely deceived by their own systems. The Spiritual Roots of Mental Infirmity: Look at biblical accounts of spiritual oppression and see how modern mental illnesses, dementia, and severe psychosis are consistently exacerbated or driven by demonic entities. The Testimony of True Deliverance: Hear powerful testimony of how the ministry has seen individuals suffering from full-blown schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder completely healed and delivered through the real-world power of Jesus Christ. They tested our obedience during the pandemic with social distancing and masks, and now they are watching to see if we will stand by while they decide that human life is cheap.

In this Bible Story, we witness the splitting of Israel. Solomon's sin causes God to strip him of his legacy. Rehoboam, Solomon's son, uses the throne as an opportunity to be cruel. Jeroboam is named king in place of Rehoboam. So Rehoboam ruled over Judah, while Jeroboam ruled over the other ten tribes of Israel. This story is inspired by 1 Kings 11:26-12:24 & 2 Chronicles 10-11:1-4. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 1 Kings 11:34 from the King James Version.Episode 117: Solomon's lust for foreign women eventually led him to foreign worship as well. This idolatry not only tore apart his relationship with God but would tear the kingdom from his hands as well. During the reign of his son Rehoboam, Jeroboam, one of his servants who had fled from him, returned. He came to confront the new king about the injustices of his father, hoping he would change. However, when Rehoboam refused the wise counsel of his elders and gave a harsh message to the people, the ten tribes of the north left him and followed Jeroboam instead.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

What does the Bible actually say about politics, and how should Christians engage public life in an age of division and polarization? In this inaugural episode of Reimagining Biblical Politics, biblical scholar Michael Rhodes joins co-host Marshall Teague to explore the foundational claim at the heart of Scripture: God reigns. Rather than offering partisan talking points or commentary on current political controversies, Rhodes argues that the Bible presents a rich and often-overlooked vision of political discipleship rooted in the kingdom of God. Drawing from his experiences living and serving in economically marginalized communities in Memphis, Nairobi, and Auckland, Rhodes explains how questions of justice, poverty, public life, and community inevitably led him to reconsider the relationship between faith and politics. The conversation introduces key themes from his book, Reimagining Biblical Politics, including the distinction between "outpost politics"—how God's people live together as citizens of God's kingdom—and "pilgrim politics"—how Christians engage the broader society around them. Listeners will discover why the language of kingdom, gospel, peace, and savior was deeply political in the biblical world, why Scripture offers far more than a few isolated verses on government, and how a renewed understanding of biblical politics can help Christians faithfully navigate public life today.

Send us Fan MailA bad marriage can feel like you're trapped in the same house with a stranger, stuck between “I don't want to leave” and “I can't do this anymore.” We go straight at that tension with humility and authority, because we've lived it. After 26 years of marriage and a rough start that nearly ended in divorce, we've learned that a struggling marriage is often less about “the wrong person” and more about missing tools, missing clarity, and missing spiritual covering.We talk through what “bad marriage” really means, from emotional distance and constant tension to loneliness, lack of intimacy, and repeated arguments. We also name the situations that require immediate outside help, including adultery, abuse, and abandonment, and why counseling and wise leadership matter. Then we challenge one of the biggest traps couples fall into: focusing all their energy on changing their spouse. You can't manipulate transformation, but you can take responsibility for your part, rebuild emotional safety, and choose respect when it would be easier to react.We also unpack faith as action, not wishful thinking. That includes building a war room prayer life, refusing the spirit of accusation in your home, and learning to speak life over your spouse and your future. Finally, we lay out seven biblical steps to help turn a bad season around: stop pretending, get clear on what's broken, own your part, stop fighting alone, rebuild safety, reintroduce God, and choose growth over escape.If you're looking for Christian marriage advice, biblical steps to save your marriage, and practical help for a struggling marriage, press play, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more couples can find it.GET THE BETTER MARRIAGE BOOTCAMP HERE:Better Marriage Bootcamp (kenandtabatha.com)Better Marriage 90-Day Devotional:90 Day Better Marriage Devotional - Ken and Tabatha (square.site)DOWNLOAD THE FAMILY MEETING OUTLINE HERE ⬇️https://www.kenandtabatha.com/pl/2148103888

Everybody lives in a place -- in a specific physical, geographical context. And that geography informs and influences the way we live and the way we think. Similarly, the biblical stories are embedded within geographical places that give those stories meaning and significance. In this interview, Jack Beck comes back on the podcast for a second time to talk about his latest book, The Holy Land Workbook. He discusses the importance of becoming familiar with biblical geography so that the biblical text can be interpreted to the fullest.

Psalm 69:32 offers hope for believers navigating seasons of pain, discouragement, and spiritual confusion. In this devotional, Jennifer Slattery explores how emotional wounds, anxiety, and difficult circumstances can sometimes lead us to question God's presence and goodness. Drawing from the life of David, she reminds readers that faith is not the absence of struggle but the continual choice to bring our fears, doubts, and burdens into God's presence rather than relying solely on our own strength. Highlights Emotional wounds and difficult circumstances can lead believers to question God's goodness. David's example shows the importance of turning to God honestly during seasons of pain. Self-reliance often increases discouragement rather than alleviating it. God's presence brings renewed joy, peace, and spiritual strength. Biblical joy is rooted in God's faithfulness, not changing circumstances. The joy of the Lord provides strength for weary and overwhelmed hearts. Prayer, worship, and time in God's presence help restore hope. Christ offers sustaining grace when we lack the strength to carry our burdens alone. Join the Conversation Have you experienced a time when God reminded you that He saw your pain, needs, or circumstances?

Full Transcript Below: When the Wounds We Suffer Cause Us to Doubt GodBy: Jennifer Slattery Bible Reading: The poor will see and be glad— you who seek God, may your hearts live! Psalm 69:32 NIV Lately, I’ve felt bruised and discouraged. I’m trying to honor God, but sometimes find it confusing, particularly in some complicated and highly consequential situations. Unlike David, the ancient Israel king who wrote today’s verse and the surrounding chapter, I’m not facing anything life-threatening. No one is hunting me down to kill me. No one is trying to destroy my dreams or my career. But I’ve been feeling under attack, just the same—by my thoughts, my pain, and numerous confusing complications that can make life feel so challenging. When I land in this place, I’m tempted to respond in various unhealthy ways. Often, my first reaction is self-reliance. This typically makes my circumstances worse while also increasing any sense of inadequacy or hopelessness I feel. Eventually, however, I respond to the gentle nudge of the Holy Spirit and seek God in my pain and overwhelm. It is then, in His presence, that my heart starts to revive as His light and life fill my soul. Perhaps this is what Scripture references in Psalm 16. In this passage, also written by David, we read: I keep my eyes always on the Lord.With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;my body also will rest secure,You make known to me the path of life;you will fill me with joy in your presence,with eternal pleasures at your right hand (vs 8-9, 11, NIV). Joy and peace come through proximity to Christ and aligning ourselves with His truth. And that joy gives us strength (Neh. 8:10). David seemed to understand this. Although a victorious warrior, many times over, who demonstrated great wisdom and restraint, Scripture rarely, if ever, paints him as self-reliant. And while he often openly expressed his pain and his fear, unfiltered, he never remained stuck in despair. Not because he didn’t struggle or quickly overcame his struggles. Rather, he found the strength to rise above the chaos raging around and within him by deliberately and consistently turning to God. And resting in the Lord’s loving embrace. Intersecting Life & Faith: Does your life feel heavy? Is your mind presently bombarded with one anxious or painful thought after another? If so, I get it. I’ve been there and am certain I will land in that place yet again. Those seasons can wear us down emotionally and physically, stealing our sleep, clarity, and peace. But we don’t have to remain stuck in our pain or navigate it alone. God bids us to come to Him, as David did, and find in Him the strength to remain standing when our knees feel ready to give way. As Nehemiah 8:10 so clearly proclaims, the joy of the Lord is our strength. That doesn’t mean we must deny our pain or suppress it behind a forced, “Praise the Lord! Hallelujah.” It doesn’t mean laughter will always overpower our tears. Biblical joy isn’t the surface-level, circumstantial emotion with which we often equate it. True joy, biblical joy, is the deep, abiding assurance that God is with us, working in us, and orchestrating everything we encounter for our good and His glory. Phrased another way, biblical joy is an enduring awareness of Christ’s grace. Knowing that we are lovingly held, faithfully led, and eternally blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms displaces our despair with hope and revives our souls. Candy and caffeine might give us a mid-afternoon pickup, but only Christ can sustain us when we’ve lost the strength to stand on our own. Perhaps this is, in part, what God means when He promises to replace our weakness with His supernatural strength. What might that look like for you, in this present season? How might turning your heart toward the Lord in your fear and pain help alleviate the burden weighing on your soul, allowing you to walk just a little lighter? Allowing you to maintain confident hope that a better day will indeed come? If you’re in a dark and challenging season, perhaps find a quiet place to connect with the Lord. Turn on some praise music, light a nice-smelling candle, and simply sit with your Father. Ask Him to help you sense His presence, and rest in His embrace for as long as necessary, trusting Him to infuse your innermost being with His joy, peace, and strength.

During World War II, Corrie ten Boom and her family risked everything to hide Jewish men and women from Nazi persecution—creating a secret refuge above her father's watch shop. Eventually, most of the family was arrested and sent to a concentration camp, where Corrie endured brutal conditions and heartbreaking loss, including the death of her beloved sister. In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef highlights how Corrie wrestled with the same question many believers face in suffering: Has God forgotten me? Yet in the darkness of her cell, Corrie discovered something astonishing—her fellowship with Jesus became closer than ever. Though imprisoned, she could honestly say she was free. Then, in a stunning turn, Corrie was released just one day before her scheduled execution—an unmistakable reminder that outcomes may vary, but God never abandons His children. As you walk through trials, this devotional anchors your heart in Paul's perspective: even when outwardly we are wasting away, inwardly God is renewing us day by day—and our momentary troubles are producing an eternal weight of glory (2 Corinthians 4:16–17). Prayer: Lord, I know Your love for me drives the darkness of this world away. I know that You will never leave me! Thank You. Help me to find comfort in this Truth, no matter how dark the situation may be. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “[E]ven the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you” (Psalm 139:12). Learn more in Dr. Michael A. Youssef's sermon Joseph: Portrait of a Winner, Winners Don't Always Look like Winners: LISTEN NOW The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission.

Episode: Meteors, Earthquakes, and the End of the World — Are We All Going to Die? The night sky is beautiful, but what happens when the stars start falling? In this explosive episode of Hardcore Christianity, Brother Mike tackles a question that is forcing its way onto the nightly news: Are we running out of time? Pulling directly from alarming NASA charting and recent real-world events—like the 230-ton fireball that recently shattered the peace over Massachusetts with a midday sonic boom—Brother Mike bridges the gap between modern data and ancient prophecy. Since the year 2000, the number of near-Earth meteorites has skyrocketed from 850 to tens of thousands, and destructive earthquakes registering between 6 and 8 on the Richter scale are accelerating staggeringly. Space is going crazy, and nature itself is screaming a warning. This isn't random coincidence; it is exactly what the Lord Jesus predicted would happen just before the Tribulation. Brother Mike walks you through the harrowing timeline of Earth's future, breaking down the catastrophic cosmic events detailed in the Scriptures: The Six Seals of Judgment: See the future unfold in Revelation 6, where the stars of heaven fall to the Earth like figs shaken from a tree, and a global earthquake rattles the planet. The Blazing Star of Wormwood: Unpack the sounding of the trumpets in Revelation 8. Learn about the giant asteroid destined to blaze through the atmosphere, poison a third of the Earth's waters, and create enough smoke to black out the sun. The Final Shake-Up of Jerusalem: Look at the severe prophetic judgments in Revelation 11 and the unprecedented destruction waiting on the horizon. The Worst Earthquake in Human History: Face the reality of Revelation 16, which promises a mighty shaking worse than anything seen since mankind was placed on the Earth—even surpassing the great flood of Noah. The Words of Christ: Ground your understanding in the warnings of Jesus from Luke 21, detailing the famines, pestilences, and fearful sights (phobeo—panic attacks) that will cause men's hearts to fail them for fear. The Rapture and the Tribulation are just around the corner, and time is officially running out. If you have been living in cognitive passivity, it is time to wake up, change your life, and rededicate your soul to the Lord before the judgment seals are opened.

The word headship has been misunderstood, misused, and in many cases weaponized. Some men have treated it like a position of authority, while others have become so afraid of getting it wrong that they've completely stepped back from leading altogether.In this episode of The Intentional Guy Podcast, Michael Chestnut takes a fresh look at Ephesians 5 and challenges husbands to rethink biblical leadership through the lens of sacrifice, vulnerability, and presence.We'll explore why Christ's model of headship was never about control—it was about laying Himself down for others. If you're a husband seeking to lead your marriage God's way, this conversation is for you.

After seven years, the beautiful temple, the hope of the nations, was complete.
