Welcome to Simple Christmas with Rusty George!The Purpose of Waiting: Discovering Hope in the Waiting RoomIn this episode, Pastor Rusty George explores the discomfort and frustration commonly associated with waiting. Drawing parallels from everyday life and biblical examples, he delves into how waiting is a crucial part of our faith journey.

Pastor George emphasizes that waiting is not wasted time but a period of divine preparation. He offers practical advice on maintaining hope through trust in God, staying connected to community, and serving others. The episode ties in the significance of the Advent season, highlighting the 'candle of hope' as a symbol of confident expectation based on God's proven track record.

Welcome to Day 2731 of Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom – Theology Thursday – The Divine Council Worldview and the Nations: A Biblical Perspective Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2731 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2731 of our Trek.   The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Our current series of Theology Thursday lessons is written by theologian and teacher John Daniels. I have found that his lessons are short, easy to understand, doctrinally sound, and applicable to all who desire to learn more of God's Word. John's lessons can be found on his website   theologyinfive.com  . Today's lesson is titled The Divine Council Worldview and the Nations:  A Biblical Perspective.    The Divine Council Worldview, championed by scholars like Dr. Michael Heiser, offers a fascinating lens through which to interpret the biblical narrative. This worldview posits that Yahweh, the God of Israel, presides over a council of lesser divine beings who were assigned to govern the nations. This podcast explores the key aspects of how this worldview explains the relationship between the divine council and the nations.    The Disinheritance of the Nations    A pivotal moment in the Divine Council Worldview is the incident of the Tower of Babel, described in Genesis Eleven verses one through nine. Humanity's attempt to build a tower reaching the heavens was seen as an act of rebellion against Yahweh. In response, Yahweh confused their language, causing them to scatter across the earth. According to this worldview, this event led to the disinheritance of the nations, as articulated in Deuteronomy thirty-two verse eight and nine.   The passage suggests that the Most High divided the nations and assigned them to be governed by lesser divine beings, while retaining Israel as His own portion.    “When the Most High assigned lands to the nations, when he divided up the human race, he established the boundaries of the peoples according to the number in his heavenly court.[a]  “For the people of Israel belong to the Lord; Jacob is his special possession. ” (Deuteronomy thirty-two, verses eight and nine) Psalm 82: Judgment of the Gods    Psalm eighty-two is a critical text for understanding the Divine Council Worldview. In this Psalm, Yahweh stands in the divine assembly and judges the ‘gods' for their failure to administer justice and righteousness among the nations. These divine beings are condemned for their negligence and are warned of their eventual demise.    God presides over heaven's court; he pronounces judgment on the heavenly beings:  “How long will you hand down unjust decisions by favoring the wicked?    I say, ‘You are gods; you are all children of the Most High.  But you will die like mere mortals and fall like every other ruler.'”    (Psalm...

Today we're trashing feminism some more, because it obviously deserves it. Feminism is not only unbiblical, it's extremely destructive for all of society. We'll talk about why Christian podcasters like Allie Beth Stuckey shouldn't defend their feminism while claiming to follow Christ, and why Christianity itself is a patriarchy, by God's design. It's time for biblical men to stop waiting for permission from feminists and take back the authority God gave them. We'll also discuss more of the Trump administration's mistakes, including this ridiculous new 50-year mortgage idea that proves how far from wisdom our leaders have fallen.

This week on G3 Weekly, we analyze the biggest headlines through the light of Scripture:1. The Socialist Shift in NYC (0:39) We break down the victory of Zohran Mamdani, the first Muslim and Democratic Socialist mayor of New York City, and explain why this ideology fundamentally clashes with a biblical worldview that affirms private property and individual responsibility.2. Government Shutdown Deconstructed (6:49)The longest-ever federal shutdown reveals a dangerously over-involved government. We discuss why the constitutional gridlock is actually a feature designed as a "protection against tyranny."3. The War on Conscience (12:09)We examine the new University of California mandate that defines using an "incorrect pronoun" or "dead name" as harassment, arguing this is compelled speech that forces Christian students to violate their conscience.4. Major Religious Freedom Victory (15:38) We celebrate the Texas Supreme Court ruling that protects judges who refuse to perform same-sex marriages based on their biblical convictions, creating a vital shield for the Christian conscience in the public square.Ultimately: As Christians, our hope is in God's sovereignty, not in human politics.

Preached by Pastor Duncan Ross on 11/2/25. Acts 25:1-12More info and sermon manuscripts at www.nshorechurch.org.

Today we're discussing the debate between feminists and non-feminists, and why I side with the non-feminists for biblical reasons. Just because women can do some of what men do doesn't mean we should. We'll also continue discussing the Charlie Kirk case, Erika Kirk's strange behavior, why being a widow doesn't automatically make you innocent, and why it's deeply concerning that TPUSA refuses to distance itself from Israel, even as Charlie's final words publicly challenged Israel, Judaism, and the control of figures like Ben Shapiro over the conservative movement.

The episode delves into topics such as the separation of church and state, freedom of speech, and the role of religion in politics. Reflecting on historical and modern perspectives, John Carter addresses issues dividing the American public and offers a biblical viewpoint on contemporary challenges.

Struggling with the fear of suffering, control, and uncertainty? In this powerful episode, Heather Creekmore dives deep into why so many women wrestle with the need to avoid pain—especially when it comes to body image, health, and the quest for comfort. Discover the spiritual roots that drive our desire for control and comfort, learn how suffering can actually point us to God rather than away from Him, and hear the inspiring true story of how suffering transformed Tara’s life. Heather doesn’t shy away from tough questions: Are we trusting in our own ability to avoid discomfort, or are we open to what God can do through seasons of pain? With honest reflection, practical encouragement, and biblical wisdom, this episode explores how surrender can play a vital role in your faith journey—and how God can use suffering for a greater purpose. Plus, Heather shares resources to support you, details about the upcoming In His Image conference in Dallas, and ways to connect for ongoing encouragement.

Today, we uncover the hidden hypocrisy of SNAP benefits and the government's bloated role in "helping" the poor, urging Christians to reclaim biblical charity over socialist handouts.

What does it look like to raise girls who see marriage and family not as cultural constructs—but as part of God's unchanging design? In this powerful conversation, host and American Heritage Girls Executive Director Rachael Culpepper welcomes Katy Faust, Founder and President of Them Before Us, a global movement advocating for children's rights to be raised by both their mother and father. Together, they explore why a Biblical understanding of family is not only foundational for our daughters' emotional and spiritual growth but essential for preserving truth in a world that's constantly rewriting the rules.  Katy's passion for God's design is contagious. With wisdom, courage, and years of advocacy experience, she unpacks how cultural trends have shifted family decisions away from the wellbeing of children—and how Christian parents can help restore that focus. Through Scripture and real-world insight, this episode encourages moms and dads to lead with conviction and grace, modeling for their girls what it means to live according to the Creator's beautiful blueprint for family.  Listeners will be challenged to see marriage and family not as outdated ideals, but as divine gifts designed to reflect the heart of God—where love, sacrifice, and identity all find their source.
