Podcasts about biblical view

Ever feel like you've lost sight of who you are? Between motherhood, marriage, work, and endless responsibilities, it's easy to let your roles define you. In this episode, Kari unpacks what it truly means to find your identity through a biblical lens — not through what you do, but who God says you are. You'll walk away feeling grounded, encouraged, and equipped to live from your God-given identity — not the world's expectations.

It's Thursday, September 18th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Muslim man stabbed Assyrian Christian to death in France An Assyrian Christian was stabbed to death in southern France last week. Forty-five-year-old Ashur Sarnaya had fled to France from Iraq in 2014 during the advance of the Islamic State. He was disabled and used a wheelchair. Sarnaya often did live videos on TikTok, sharing God's word in Arabic. His videos received tens of thousands of views. It was during one of his live videos that someone brutally stabbed him to death. Authorities are investigating the murder. Sarnaya had previously suffered a physical attack earlier this year at the hands of Muslims.  Such attacks are becoming more common in France. There were 400 anti-Christian acts in France between January and June this year. That's up 13% compared to the same period last year. More French deaths than births Speaking of France, the country recorded more deaths than births for the first time in 80 years. France had 650,000 births last year compared to 651,000 deaths.  Steven Mosher, the President of the Population Research Institute, noted, “Bringing in massive numbers of immigrants to replace the current population—which seems to be the French approach—is a ‘solution' that creates more problems—cultural, social, political and religious—than it solves.” Trump defunding research with aborted babies' tissue In the United States, the Trump administration is defunding research that uses tissue from babies murdered in the womb. At issue are 17 grants totaling over $22 million that funded research using human fetal tissue from abortions.  The National Institutes of Health announced it will not renew the Biden-era grants. The government agency stated, “NIH is guided by a commitment [of] valuing human life and ensuring that federally-funded research is conducted responsibly and transparently.”  Trump will send National Guard to Memphis to cut crime President Donald Trump signed an order Monday called “Restoring Law and Order in Memphis.” The memo establishes a task force, including the National Guard, to crack down on crime in Memphis, Tennessee.  Listen to comments from President Trump. TRUMP: “I'm signing a presidential memorandum to establish the Memphis Safe Task Force. It's very important because of the crime that's going on, not only in Memphis, but in many cities. We're going to take care of all of them, step by step, just like we did in DC. We have virtually no crime in DC right now.” Memphis has faced record gun violence in recent years. Tennessee Republican Governor Bill Lee  supported the task force, saying he is “tired of crime holding the great city of Memphis back.” Ecclesiastes 8:11 says, “Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil.” Federal Reserve cut interest rate by quarter percent The Federal Reserve  cut its key interest rate yesterday after holding rates steady previously this year. The Fed lowered its benchmark overnight lending rate by a quarter percentage point. That brings it down to the range of 4% to 4.25%. The Fed signaled it will cut the rate two more times this year.   Barna: Only 14% of Americans have biblical view of sin Dr. George Barna released his latest research on the worldview of Americans this week. The study found only 14% of U.S. adults hold a consistently biblical view of sin. The research identified several major misconceptions that millions of Americans have about sin. These misconceptions include the following: sin doesn't come from the heart; feelings outweigh truth; sin isn't life-changing; and sin isn't rebellion against God. Dr. Barna noted, “As a nation, we have generally made peace with all but the most egregious or personally painful sins.” Jeremiah 17:9 says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it?” Injured student in school shooting makes miraculous recovery And finally, a Catholic student, who was injured in a recent school shooting, is making a miraculous recovery. Three weeks ago, a shooter opened fire into Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The attacker killed two children and injured at least 17 more people. One of the injured children was 12-year-old Sophia Forchas.  She was shot in the head. After her hospitalization, doctors expected her to become the third fatality from the shooting. However, the hospital recently upgraded her condition from critical to serious.  Sophia's family posted the news last week in an update to a GoFundMe campaign started on behalf of the family. They said, “Her progress to this point is being called miraculous. We are calling it a miracle. … Please continue to keep Sophia in your hearts and prayers. She is a warrior! And she is winning!!”  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, September 18th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

1 Corinthians 7 The Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians, “But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk.” Singleness is not a lesser state in God's eyes; rather, every follower of Jesus Christ, whether single, married, engaged, or widowed, has been called to grow in our relationship with Him, serve Him obediently, and live as His faithful disciple. Stay with us now as Dr. Reeder takes us to 1 Corinthians 7 and brings us today's teaching … PART 2 of his message entitled: What About Singleness?: A Christian Perspective.

1 Corinthians 7 God has called many believers to glorify Him in marriage by raising godly families, reflecting the love of Christ in the marriage relationship, and modeling Christlike character to a watching world. But He has also called others to singleness, and to glorify Him in this unmarried state through the unique opportunities it gives for spiritual growth and undistracted devotion to Christ. Stay with us now as Dr. Reeder takes us to 1 Corinthians 7 and brings us today's teaching … PART 1 of his message entitled: What About Singleness?: A Christian Perspective.

We finish our trip through the topic of Marriage and Divorce in scripture. We do a bit of review and then move through Paul's instructions in 1 Corinthians 7. We discuss God's practical solution for the problem of lust and the natural desires of the flesh.God wants to provide both security and affection in a bond meant to last a lifetime. Paul also has to deal with the influx of grafted in Gentiles who may have entered the faith with an unbelieving spouse. What can we learn from this unique situation?In Israel and in the Law, no such provision is discussed. In hie mercy and grace, the Lord understands we are fallen creatures and he provides various instructions to help us walk as closely to his will as possible.We will revisit the woman at the well in John 4 and the woman taken in an act of adultery in John 8 and observe how the Lord deals with these woman and how that differs from both how the Law and Paul approach the issue.

One of the most common questions new Christians have is something like, “What is the difference between all the different kinds of churches?” Baptist, Pentecostal, Methodist, Anglican, United Reformed, Catholic… what's the difference? Why do we need all these different denominations?In this video we take a closer look at denominations. We take a brief look at the history of denominations in the church, then look more deeply at Methodism as an example. We finish by thinking about some ways in which we should and shouldn't think about denominations.Understand the Bible is a reader-supported publication.

We continues our path through the sometimes complex issue of Marriage and Divorce in a Christian context. W start, as we always should, with the original design, them progress through God's dealings with a mixed church in the Acts as they anticipated terrible days ahead.We compare a few of Paul's instructions during the Acts age against his Post Acts instructions. We get a little into the marriages themselves and Paul's warnings about giving Satan a foothold in our homes.Paul addresses, in a very practical way, God's remedy for the sinful tendencies of the flesh. Marriage is offered as a remedy for lust, and the coming together as one as a remedy for rampant fornication, adultery, and other perversions of the original design.

This is an enormous topic that is very simple in some ways and very complex in other ways. It started off simply in the Garden: one man, one woman, one flesh, without end. Sin and death was introduced into the world by our father, Adam, and God had to start dealing with men and women and our frailties.We will look at marriage under the Law and how God had to make exceptions to his design for a fallen world and a fallen people. As he made his covenant with Israel and gave her the Law for the land, our Lord included concessions to the weakness of mankind. The Lord Jesus had to deal with this issue in his ministry to both Israel and to Gentiles.

This summer, we're taking a short break from our regular podcast format, and instead have selected various installments from past message series given by James Emery White at Mecklenburg Community Church where he serves as the Senior Pastor. "The Tower of Babel" was the sixth installment of a series titled, "Primordial: Genesis and the World's Primeval History." Primordial is defined as that which has existed since the beginning of time. The first book of the Bible - Genesis - begins with the words “In the beginning..." So what do we really know about the beginning of time and those earliest chapters of human history? How do we grapple with all that it holds in light of fact vs. fiction, or science vs. religion? Today's episode will walk through what really happened when the tower of Babel was constructed, and the cultural implications for our day. Episode Links Below you'll find the link to the full series if that's something you are interested in checking out, along with the sources that were used in the development of the message itself: "Primordial: Genesis and the World's Primeval History" John Walton, “Beware Our Tower of Babel,” Christianity Today, read online.

What defines beauty in a girl's life—and who gets to decide? In a culture obsessed with appearance and constant self-curation, helping our daughters root their sense of worth in something lasting and true can feel like an uphill climb. In this heartfelt episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Melissa invite moms to rethink what it means to help our girls embrace a Biblical view of beauty—one that's grounded not in trends, but in truth.  From glitter-filled childhoods to the pressures of tween and teen years, Rachael and Melissa reflect on their own beauty journeys, the beauty mishaps that shaped them, and how those moments can lead to deeper conversations about identity, confidence, and self-worth. Drawing inspiration from American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Patti Garibay's Raising Godly Girls Minute and the powerful truth of 1 Samuel 16:7—"People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart"—this episode offers both encouragement and practical ideas for having heart-to-heart conversations with your girl.  You'll hear honest stories about raising daughters in today's image-driven world, plus thoughtful talking points you can use to anchor your girl in the reality that true beauty flows from a heart being transformed by Christ. Whether your daughter is entering the “glow up” years or just starting to become aware of how she's perceived by the world, this conversation will equip you to speak life, confidence, and God's definition of beauty into her.  Rachael and Melissa also share how American Heritage Girls helps affirm each girl's God-given worth through programming that encourages spiritual growth, leadership, and character development. You'll even hear about glittery dress-up nights and wrinkled uniforms—proof that the beauty of girlhood isn't always picture-perfect, but it's always purposeful in God's hands.  This episode is a must-listen for any mom navigating the ever-changing waters of body image, peer pressure, and cultural beauty standards. Let it remind you that our girls don't need to meet the world's definition of beautiful. They were already fearfully and wonderfully made—and it's our joy to help them believe it.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

What does it take to age well? According to Instagram, it seems aging is all about what you eat and how you exercise. But, what if there's more to aging well than that? Today, author and Christian body image coach, Heather Creekmore, will encourage you with 4 strategies to age well that have a much greater impact on your health and on the way you feel about aging than any kale salad or cycling class. She'll look at how the science shows that gratitude can extend your life and improve your health. Similarly, she'll look at how finding community and activities you have fun doing can do the same. Heather talks about why it's not helpful to follow a restrictive diet and be rigid with exercise if you want to age well, because there's more to aging than just the way we eat and move.

What does Jesus really say about money? In this episode, we begin a biblical series on money and stewardship, exploring 7 key principles from the Gospel of Luke. Learn how generosity, contentment, and eternal perspective transform how we handle money today.

The modern marketplace has a perspective that is far from Biblical when it comes to investments. This is primarily because the hearts of people today are largely controlled by greed. But what does the Bible have to say about investments, and investing wisely? Is it necessarily all tied to monetary gain and benefits? Anything we do for Jesus counts for eternity . . . and any investment is worth it if we have an opportunity to trade something temporal to gain an eternal return. This program includes:1.

Many say they need to find themselves, but what does that mean? Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar talk about how when we look within ourselves for meaning, we walk away disheartened. The truth is, we find ourselves by losing ourselves in Christ. Believers don't need to find themselves; they need to forget themselves. When we keep our eyes on the Lord, the opinions of others won't bother us. Only when we realize that Jesus is all we have do we understand He's all we need.What we think about ourselves dictates our entire lives. Historically, people found identity through those around them, but when society decays, this can fail. The world tells people to look, but our hearts make terrible gods. What happens when an entire generation looks inside and sees hypocrisy, lies, and brokenness? The gospel teaches Christians to look to the Lord for our identity. Before Ray was saved, he felt an inner cry that only Christ could answer. In Him, we find truth, and the truth sets us free. The call isn't to discover ourselves, but to deny ourselves for God's glory. Many people don't know why they're alive—that's the horror of a life without God. We must return to the God who made our souls.The world tells us to love ourselves, but Scripture says to love our neighbors as ourselves because self-love comes naturally. Today's culture sets us up as gods. This is why so many people, including celebrities, end up lost and lonely. Only when we understand what Jesus did and who He is can we find peace. The guys talk about a believer's biblical identity as sons and daughters of the living God. We don't need to find our identity—it was given to us in salvation. When our eyes are on the Lord, everything else falls into place. Even in uncertainty, we don't question God's love. The Lord is our foundation and salvation, and it is well with our souls. To be loved by God as His child is to be adopted into His family. As believers, our identity is found in being God's prized possession. His love for us is deeper than any human love. Out of all creation, His adopted children are His favorite. We are His inheritance. When we possess the greatest treasure, nothing else matters. We've been touched by the living God, and we don't need to search for meaning—we are His children. When the world comes against us, God defends us. Our worth is found in Him alone. Look to the cross, and you will never lose sight of His love. There's no greater cure for your soul than being consumed by the Lord.Send us a text Thanks for listening!
