What if the most loving thing isn't the comment everyone else is leaving? Before you hit "proud of you," "you look beautiful," or "live your truth," ask yourself: are you encouraging someone toward life, or cheering them further into the very thing that's destroying them—and what does God think about it?#ChristianTikTok#ChristianReels#JesusChrist#BibleTruth#BiblicalTruth#ChristianPodcast#FaithOverFeelings#KingdomMindset#FollowJesus#DiscipleOfChrist#LoveAndTruth#SpeakTheTruth#TruthInLove#RealLove#BiblicalLove#ChristianLiving#ChristianEncouragement#FearGod#RepentAndBelieve#Watchman#CultureAndChrist#CounterCulture#ChristianPerspective#WorldVsWord#ModernChristianity#HardTruth#DeepFaith#ThinkAboutIt#TruthMatters#WakeUpChurch#LikingTheirPostsWontSaveThem#YoureNotHelpingThem#LoveDoesntCheerForSelfDestruction#IdentityInChrist#CreatedByGod#SpiritualDiscernment#ChristianContent#BibleTeaching

Have you ever found yourself replaying someone else's words, assuming they were judging you? Or maybe you've caught yourself criticizing someone in your mind, convinced you're seeing the situation clearly. If so, you're not alone. This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I sat down with my friend Shannon Popkin to discuss her new book, Kinda Judgy: Finding Mercy for Myself and Others in Six Stories of the Bible. Together, we explored a topic that many of us struggle with but rarely talk about openly—judgment. What if the criticism we feel from others is often rooted in our own insecurities? What if the harsh standards we apply to others reveal places in our own hearts that need God's healing mercy? Through powerful stories like Jonah, the thief on the cross, and the woman caught in adultery, Shannon reminds us that while God is a righteous Judge, He is also abundantly merciful. His mercy changes how we see ourselves and how we see others. One of my favorite takeaways from our conversation was this: we often feel judged and become judgy in response. But Jesus shows us a different way. Though He was wrongly judged, He responded with compassion, forgiveness, and grace. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why judgment and insecurity are often connected• How contempt quietly damages our relationships• What Jonah's story reveals about our own hearts• How God's mercy transforms the way we treat others• Why the cross is the ultimate picture of love and compassion Friend, if you've ever struggled with being critical of yourself or others, this conversation will encourage you and point you back to the heart of God.

In Episode 2 of the series Mary in the Dock: Ordinary or Extraordinary?, host Greg Smith puts the Catholic doctrine of Mary as Mother of God (Theotokos) on trial. Many modern evangelicals recoil at the title, calling it blasphemous or idolatrous and unknowingly echoing the ancient Nestorian heresy that split Christ in two. Greg gives the strongest Protestant objections a full, fair hearing — the lack of an explicit Bible verse, the risk of deifying Mary, and the historical cautions from Calvin — then delivers a robust Catholic defense rooted in Luke 1:43 (“mother of my Lord”), the Council of Ephesus (431 AD), and the affirmations of classical Reformers like Luther (“she is rightly called… the Mother of God”), Zwingli, and the Anglican Articles. Far from Marian excess, the doctrine safeguards the full reality of the Incarnation and the infinite value of Christ's atonement. Listeners serve as the jury in this conversational yet intellectually sharp courtroom discussion that asks the key question: is Mary simply an ordinary woman God used for a moment, or the extraordinary God-bearer the Church has proclaimed for two thousand years? Perfect for curious non-Catholics, Protestant pastors investigating Catholicism, and cradle Catholics deepening their faith. SUPPORT THIS SHOW Considering Catholicism is 100% listener-supported.

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Job has said many words that need to be addressed. Elihu is in the process of challenging Job on the words Job has said against God. Elihu has been defending God from what Job has said during the time of this trial. Elihu is speaking on God's behalf (Job 36:2). Further, Elihu declares that he […] The post God Is Not Powerless When Suffering (Job 36-37) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ.

Psalm 19 // Payton OttPsalm 19 provides a beautiful bridge between general revelation in nature and special revelation in scripture. This sermon begins by examining the first six verses, where the sun and sky act as witnesses to his power without speaking a single word. We then transition into the second half of the chapter, focusing on how his word is more desirable than gold and sweeter than honey. We conclude with a personal reflection on the final prayer of the psalmist, asking that the words of our mouths and the meditations of our hearts be pleasing to him, our rock and our redeemer.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/49614365 PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2546/responses/new26.05.31

Before visiting a church or following an online pastor, make sure you ask the hard questions about who Jesus is, how salvation works, and whether the church stands on biblical truth or cultural compromise. In this episode, C.L. Whiteside breaks down five red-flag beliefs that should make you run from any church that twists Scripture, promotes deception, or leads people away from the truth that sets them free. 

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Does God care when we are suffering? Does it matter to God when are going through severe trials? When we are going through trials we can be tempted to wonder if God cares about what we are experiencing. We can look around and think that God simply has no concern about what is happening to […] The post God Is Not Uncaring When Suffering (Job 35) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ.

In a culture driven by emotions, opinions, and shifting values, believers must return to Scripture as their primary source of truth, identity, and guidance. In this episode, Joseph Mattera unpacks what it truly means to know God through His Word—not merely intellectually, but transformationally. He explains why spiritual maturity requires more than inspiration; it requires building our inner life upon biblical revelation. This teaching challenges believers to: Anchor their identity in Scripture rather than emotions or culture Allow the Word to shape their thoughts, desires, and decisions Align prayer and daily living with biblical truth Re-center their lives fully on Christ The Word of God was never meant to be occasional information—it is meant to become the foundation of our lives.

 In this powerful episode, we explore one of the most important truths in the Christian faith: the failure of Christians is not the failure of Christ. From church scandals and spiritual abuse to hypocrisy and disappointment, many people walk away from faith because they confuse Jesus with the imperfect people who claim to follow Him. But what if the answer to distorted Christianity is not less Jesus… but the true Jesus? This episode dives deep into what the Bible says about hypocrisy, why Jesus Himself confronted religious corruption, and how believers can separate Christ from the brokenness of human institutions. We also examine insights from respected Bible scholars, modern church history, and the teachings of Jesus to uncover why authentic Christianity still matters today. If you've been hurt by the church, wrestling with doubt, or searching for the real Jesus behind religion, this conversation is for you. Like, subscribe, and share this episode with someone wrestling with faith. Many people reject Jesus because of bad experiences with Christians. But here's the question: should Jesus be judged by people who fail to live like Him? In this episode, we unpack the powerful truth that the failure of Christians is not the failure of Christ. We talk about church hurt, hypocrisy, scandals, doubt, and why the real Jesus still stands apart from human weakness and religious corruption. If you've ever been disappointed by the church or questioned your faith because of Christians who didn't reflect Christ, this episode will challenge and encourage you. Watch now and rediscover the difference between Jesus and religion. Connect with us: YouTube: YouTube.com/@soul02-oxygen Facebook: @LP.Oxygen https://www.facebook.com/LP.Oxygen Instagram: LP.Oxygen Twitter: @Soul025 Buzzsprout: Soul02-Buzzsprout Spotify: Soul02 - Spotify Apple: Soul02-Itunes Stitcher: Soul02-Stitcher 

1 John 3:1 (NKJV) BEHOLD what manner of LOVE the Father HAS BESTOWED on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

DTWOL… Parents! is a heartfelt and sobering dive into the eternal responsibility of discipleship within the home. Through Scripture, personal testimony, and practical truth lived in motion, this Godcast challenges parents to awaken to the spiritual influence shaping the hearts and minds of their children every single day. From correction and consistency… to marriage, spiritual leadership, repentance, grace, and generational stewardship… listeners are reminded that children are watching footprints long before they understand theology. And while no parent walks perfectly, the only true God is able to transform hearts, homes, and future generations through faithful discipleship rooted in Jesus Christ. Because parenting is more than raising children for today… it is participating in the future workmanship of disciples yet to come. God's Word: Key passages: Deuteronomy 6:6–7, Proverbs 22:6, Ephesians 6:4, Joshua 24:15, and Galatians 6:9. Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript. Amen? Email: walkingtheway3@gmail.com

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Jehoshaphat was king over the nation of Judah. He walked in the footsteps of David, seeking the Lord and being his commands. But his association with Ahab, the king of Israel, has caused him to compromise. His faithfulness to the Lord was negatively impacted because he wanted to be connected to Ahab.

Episode Summary: If you’ve ever felt ambushed by intrusive thoughts, unwanted mental spirals, or the kind of anxious loops that hijack your peace, you’re not alone—and you’re not powerless. In this episode of Your Hope-Filled Perspective, we’re diving into the intersection of biblical truth and brain science, exploring how God designed your mind, why intrusive thoughts show up, and how to interrupt them with evidence-based strategies and Scripture-anchored truth. Whether you struggle with anxiety, guilt, catastrophizing, or “what-if” thinking, you’ll learn practical, hope-filled tools to renew your mind, reclaim your thought life, and experience the calm your soul has been craving. In honor of mental health awareness month, today we’re going to talk about How to Manage Intrusive Thoughts Through Biblical Truth & Brain Science. Quotables from the episode: You are not at the mercy of your mind. A thought is not a fact. A thought is not a sin. A thought is not your identity. A thought is not your destiny. The amygdala can’t tell the difference between a genuine threat, a hypothetical threat, or a lie masquerading as danger. Romans 12:2 isn’t metaphor, it’s biology: ‘Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.’ You can’t control the first thought, but you can control the next one. Intrusive thoughts thrive in internal chaos; they shrink in stillness. This is just a thought, not a truth, and not a command. You cannot ‘stop thinking’ your way out of intrusive thoughts; you must redirect them. When the body calms down, the amygdala shuts off, and intrusive thoughts lose their volume. You are not losing your mind. You are learning to renew it. Scripture References: Romans 12:2 “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” 2 Corinthians 10:5 “Take every thought captive.” Colossians 3:2 “Set your mind on things above.” Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God.” Philippians 4:8 “Whatever is true… think about such things.” Romans 8:6 “The mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace” Psalm 46:1 “God is my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Romans 8:1 “There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you.” 1 John 4:18 “Perfect love casts out fear.” Matthew 6:34 “Do not worry about tomorrow.” Philippians 1:6 “He who began a good work in you will carry it to completion.” Recommended Resources: Free Stress-Response Personality Assessment Sacred Scars: Resting in God’s Promise That Your Past Is Not Wasted by Dr. Michelle Bengtson The Hem of His Garment: Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner AWSA 2024 Golden Scroll Christian Living Book of the Year and the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Christian Living and Non-Fiction categories YouVersion 5-Day Devotional Reaching Out To God When Pain Overwhelms Today is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises from God to Start Your Day Off Right by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, AWSA Member of the Year, winner of the AWSA 2023 Inspirational Gift Book of the Year Award, the 2024 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in the Devotional category, the 2023 Christian Literary Awards Reader’s Choice Award in four categories, and the Christian Literary Awards Henri Award for Devotionals YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 1 YouVersion Devotional, Today is Going to be a Good Day version 2 Revive & Thrive Women’s Online Conference Revive & Thrive Summit 2 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 1 Trusting God through Cancer Summit 2 Breaking Anxiety’s Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises by Dr. Michelle Bengtson, winner of the AWSA 2020 Best Christian Living Book First Place, the first place winner for the Best Christian Living Book, the 2020 Carolina Christian Writer’s Conference Contest winner for nonfiction, and winner of the 2021 Christian Literary Award’s Reader’s Choice Award in all four categories for which it was nominated (Non-Fiction Victorious Living, Christian Living Day By Day, Inspirational Breaking Free and Testimonial Justified by Grace categories.)

Here's where the majority of today's Christians struggle: we don't relate AUTHORITY with RESPONSIBILITY. In other words, when we fail to exercise our God-ordained authority, we basically limit God's predestined plan.

Most of the world believes that mankind is unconditionally immortal, persisting after death in the spirit realm in some way.

Explore the transformative power of saying "no" with Pastor Steve Gray in this episode of "More Faith, More Life" podcast. Dive into historical lessons from Prohibition, understanding how God's grace empowers us to deny ungodliness. Gray emphasizes the importance of personal revival and encountering God in churches, advocating for a deep, spiritual walk powered by the Holy Spirit. This episode encourages Christians to embrace grace as an empowering force for a truly transformed life, going beyond mere legal constraints. Join this engaging discussion on faith, life, and spiritual growth.Key Takeaways:The word "no" has a profound psychological and spiritual impact, often leading to unintended consequences such as rebellion and increased temptation.Historical examples like Prohibition highlight how external laws can fail to change hearts and behavior.Revival originates from personal encounters with God's presence, not just from extended church activities or gatherings.Grace should be understood as a transformative power that empowers individuals to say "no" to ungodliness from within.Churches should prioritize facilitating connections between individuals and God, beyond social interactions and inspirational messages.Looking for more?

Most of us have never been taught what the Bible actually says about our bodies. Christine Caine is asking the question a lot of people are afraid to ask out loud — does God care what you do with your body? How you eat, how you exercise, how you present yourself? What about tattoos, piercings, or cosmetic surgery? The answer is more nuanced — and more freeing — than you might think. In this full sermon, Christine Caine walks through the biblical truth about the body as the temple of the Holy Spirit, and brings Scripture into conversation with some of the most personal questions we carry — about fitness, beauty standards, stewardship, and identity. She's not here to shame anyone. She's here to bring clarity where the culture has created confusion. Because there's a difference between honoring your body and idolizing it. And most of us are navigating that line without a map. In this episode, you'll discover: What it actually means to steward your body as God's temple — without becoming consumed by it Why your identity is rooted in Christ, not your appearance or your fitness level What the Bible says about tattoos, piercings, cosmetic surgery, and beauty standards How to examine your motives — and make decisions about your body from freedom, not pressure This is for you if you've ever asked: → Does God care how I look or how I take care of my body? → Is it wrong to want to be fit, healthy, or attractive? → What does the Bible actually say about tattoos or cosmetic surgery? → How do I stop swinging between neglect and obsession with my appearance?

For example, think about a mom's love, this side of Heaven I don't know that there's anything closer to representing THE LOVE OF GOD. So today as we honor moms, just maybe we let their example of love inspire us to lean in to our Heavenly Father's love. For God so loved you…

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. For thirty-one chapters we have read about a lot of questions about suffering and the way God runs the world.

However, we know this is wrong […] The post God Is Not Silent When Suffering (Job 32-33) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ.

Happy Mother's Day to all of the incredible mothers out there. Today's episode is a deeper conversation about the urgent need for stronger, more biblical men and women in our culture, people willing to stand for truth, protect the vulnerable, and refuse to stay silent in the face of evil.We discuss the ongoing outrage surrounding the Epstein files, the lack of accountability for powerful people, and the broader cultural failure to protect victims from wicked and predatory individuals. But this conversation goes beyond headlines. It's about morality, courage, justice, faith, and what happens when societies stop valuing strong families, strong character, and biblical principles.This episode is ultimately about hope too, because evil does not win forever. Real justice matters, truth matters, and good people still have a responsibility to speak up.

Pastor Jim explores the “belt of truth” from the armor of God and explains how truth is essential for standing firm against the lies and schemes of the enemy. He emphasizes that truth is not merely information to learn, but a person to know in Jesus Christ, who reveals both the character of God and humanity's true identity. Contrasting the “father of lies” with the “Father of lights,” the sermon highlights how deception about God and ourselves leads to brokenness, while the truth of the gospel brings life, forgiveness, and freedom. Pastor Jim encourages believers to remain rooted in Scripture, gospel community, prayer, and daily obedience so they can recognize lies, apply truth in everyday decisions, and confidently stand firm in Christ's victory.

Allie sits down with Dr. Carlos Campo, president and CEO of the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., to discuss the reliability of Scripture, the growing crisis in Bible literacy, and whether America was founded as a Christian nation. Dr. Campo lays out the museum's powerful artifacts, like the Dead Sea Scrolls and the groundbreaking Megiddo Mosaic — one of the earliest archaeological declarations of “the God Jesus Christ” — while he gives an exclusive tour of the museum's most incredible historical discoveries.

Some voices today try to make Christianity “easier” by removing whatever feels uncomfortable—reducing the faith to a few agreeable points and ignoring the rest. In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef explains why that approach doesn't produce stronger believers—it produces weaker ones. Jesus Himself affirmed the Old Testament, including accounts like Noah and Jonah (Matthew 24:37; Matthew 12:40). That means we cannot claim to believe in Jesus while dismissing what He declared to be true. Scripture isn't a buffet. If the Bible records Christ's virgin birth, His miracles, His cross, and His resurrection, we don't get to select the parts we prefer and discard the rest. Dr. Youssef then turns to Jude, who urged Christians to “contend for the faith” (Jude 1:3). Truth does not shift with the times—and when we forget the magnitude of God's grace toward us, our faith grows thin and our witness loses strength. But when we hold fast to the Gospel, we submit to Christ fully, trust every Word He affirmed, and stand firm—even in a culture that pressures compromise. Prayer: Father, help me cling firmly to Your Gospel and trust and obey Your Word—contending for Truth. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.  “Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James, To those who have been called, . . .” (Jude 1:1). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

I am seeing believers attack motives of other believers faster than they search the Scriptures. I am seeing Christians tear down other Christians, not always over clear biblical error, but over assumptions, suspicions, reactions, emotion, party alignment, denominations. and whatever side of an issue they think somebody is on. I am seeing fear used like a tool, especially on social media. Fear to get attention, clicks, follows, shares. Fear to get people stirred up. And so much of it centers around words like antichrist, tribulation, mark of the beast, deception, conspiracy, this is the sign, here it is, it is happening now, look at this, look at that. And while I was praying about this, I felt the Lord speak something to my heart when I asked why is this happening among believers? Many Christians today are biblically illiterate and spiritually deaf.

In a culture where climate concerns are rising—especially among the next generation—how can parents guide their girls to respond with truth instead of fear?  In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden step into a timely and often emotionally charged conversation: climate change, cultural messaging, and what it means to raise a girl with a confident, Biblical Worldview. With research showing that many Gen Z girls feel deep concern about the future of the planet, this episode equips parents to meet those concerns with compassion, clarity, and Christ-centered truth.  Rather than dismissing the conversation—or being swept up in alarm—Rachael and Melissa encourage families to reframe the narrative. Yes, creation matters. Yes, stewardship is important. But no, your girl is not responsible for "saving the planet." That role belongs to God alone.  In this week's Raising Godly Girls Minute, Patti Garibay offers wisdom for girls who may feel labeled or misunderstood in today's culture. With grace and confidence, she reminds listeners that embracing science and trusting Scripture are not at odds—and that God remains sovereign over every detail of His creation.  You'll also hear practical guidance for navigating these conversations at home: acknowledging your girl's concerns, zooming out to see both historical patterns and Biblical Truth, and helping her engage in meaningful, peace-filled stewardship. Because when girls understand that the Earth belongs to the Lord, they can trade anxiety for assurance—and step into their role as faithful caretakers with joy.  This episode is an invitation to raise girls who are grounded, thoughtful, and unshaken—ready to care for God's creation without carrying the weight of fear.    Three Things to Remember:  Don't dismiss your girl's concerns. Climate conversations are real to her—meet them with understanding and truth.   Balance perspective with history and Scripture. A Biblical worldview brings peace and clarity in the face of cultural alarm.   Teach stewardship without fear. Your girl can care for God's creation with confidence, knowing He is ultimately in control.    Scriptures Referenced in This Episode:  Psalm 24:1    Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.  Learn how to find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your community at americanheritagegirls.org.

What if the very thing pushing you away from God isn't actually Him—but something (or someone) He warned you about? Before you walk away completely, you might want to rethink what's really going on behind the scenes. Matthew 7:15-16John 8:31-32#ChurchHurt#FaithOverFeelings#RealTalkFaith#DontQuitGod#SpiritualGrowth
