Episode 102: "God did not work . . . in such a way as to make sorrow vanish and to change the system, so that there is no longer any need for consolation. That would be to take away our humanity. And this is what we secretly desire. Yes, being human is too burdensome for us. But if our humanity were taken away from us, we would cease to be human beings and the world would become inhuman. God did not work that way. He chose a wiser way that was more difficult in many respects but, for precisely that reason, better, more divine. He did not take away our humanity but shares it with us." – Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) from a homily titled “How God Comforts” in the book On Love: Selected Writings---In this month's episode, author and host Julia Monnin* reminds listeners of the simple truth that our humanity is something beautiful; something to be grateful for and to delight in. In addition to sharing a few reflections from others, she also shares with listeners her own Reflection #220 which is found in her book ⁠⁠⁠The World Is Noisy - God Whispers: Volume II⁠⁠⁠. ---"Though I am really struggling right now with some heaviness and pain related to my human weaknesses and vices, I am incredibly grateful for what I am. After all, I am created in God's image and likeness. What else could be better than that?" (from Reflection #220, "Big God, Small Problems")---⁠⁠⁠theworldisnoisy.com⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠journeysrevealed.com

David Mathis | Pastor, all your hearers are hungry for the living God, even if they don't know it or can't name it. And only big-God preaching will enduringly satisfy them.

Isaiah 66:1 describes the heavens as His throne, and the earth His footstool. This gives a picture of how great God is. Comparable to none. In this teaching, we learn that the opposite of God is blank, and because of how majestic God is we believe there is nothing impossible for him. This sermon lays emphasis on the greatness of God and the fearful application of this in our lives as His children.

In this Bible Study we will learn that God can even the "little" of our lives to be part of His big plan. This time together will help you look at life from a whole new perspective.

When preachers herald the glory of God from the heart, the pride of man dies, all of life becomes meaningful, and we rejoice like never before.

It's family Sunday, and the school-aged kids are in service with us for a word about believing - it isn't about how big our faith is, it's about the big God our faith is in. 

This is a very special conversation with a friend that I hold in high regard. I've known Russ Lee for nearly 40 years - from his days in TRUTH, as a solo artist and as a long time member of Newsong. Every time we get together he blesses me with his wisdom and stories of faith. This is one of my favorite episodes so far and I'm glad you're here to experience it with me.

"With All Boldness and Without Hindrance." We'll explore the courage and perseverance of the Apostle Paul, and how we can apply these lessons to boldly live out our faith, no matter the obstacles. Don't miss this inspiring message!

This weekend concludes Luke’s account of Paul’s life, Luke’s account in its entirety, and the last weekend Timberline Church’s Lead Pastor, Dary Northrop, will be with the Timberline Windsor church family. And yet, somehow, the main point isn’t about any of that… It all comes down to Acts 28:31!

Join us for a powerful service as we dive into Acts 27. Just as Paul faced the raging sea with unshakable faith, we’ll explore how to trust God through life’s trials. Don’t miss this message of hope, resilience, and divine protection!

As a proud father of two young daughters, I embrace the daily challenge of shaping strong, independent women while instilling the core values of faith and resilience that are the backbone of our family.Recently my journey into Christian apologetics ignited a fire within me to delve deeper into my faith, turning every question into a battle for truth and understanding. In my off-hours, you'll find me honing my Jiu-Jitsu, trying to get lost int the woods learning various bushcraft skills, and hitting the driving or shooting range for some target practice — each pursuit a testament to becoming a more humble and technical man I pray to one day embody.I played a pivotal role in launching and operating the largest indoor shooting facility in Naples. Today, I channel that passion into my work as an operations consultant, partnering with local trades companies to drive efficiency and success. One of my greatest achievements is the partnership with my wife in homeschooling our daughters. Together, we forge a solid educational journey that is both nurturing and deeply rooted in biblical principles, preparing them to tackle the world head-on.As I look forward, I'm on a mission: to learn through Christ the best way to spread the Word of Christ and raise up the next generation, to multiply multipliers—teaching them that there is an objective value of truth, no weakness in meekness, and an unyielding desire to make a small impact for a Big God. 

Listen to this week's message as we teach on how to magnify God in your life.

In this video, we explore the powerful journey of Paul through Acts 24-26. Despite facing trials, imprisonment, and challenges, Paul remains steadfast in his faith and mission. His testimony and courage offer valuable lessons for us all about perseverance, truth, and trusting God’s plan even in the midst of adversity. Join us as we reflect on how life’s journey mirrors Paul’s unwavering commitment to his purpose, no matter the obstacles.

Paul’s arrest continues to play out like a courtroom drama. All the while, however, Paul has never been more sharp, and never been more focused. The ways in which this man’s faith is bolstered in the midst of hardship and injustice teaches us something powerful and convicting about the truth he was living and dying for.

Let us follow Paul as he turns back home to Jerusalem and captures moments with people along the way.

As Paul turns to Jerusalem (in many ways modeling Jesus's fateful turn toward Jerusalem), we explore ways in which God shares wisdom and even caution with people, but perhaps not to deter them but to more fully prepare them. When facing some of the greatest hardships (as Paul undoubtedly was), God often graciously takes steps to ensure we have counted the cost and fortified our strength, and yet perhaps not our full understanding.

Be Bold & Ask For More! (Be Bold Series)Isaiah 40:28-31 “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.  He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”“He will not grow tired or weary.”  I thought of two things when I read this. The first was, wouldn't that be nice?  Wouldn't it be nice not to grow tired or weary?  I know a lot of us have been feeling tired and weary lately.  A lot is going on in our world, and we are ready for a break.  This is why my first thought was, wouldn't that be nice.  My second thought was, do we believe this?  Do we believe that God doesn't grow tired and weary?  I wondered this because I feel as though often times we treat God as though this is not true.  We treat God as if He is not the almighty and powerful Lord that does not grow tired or weary.I say this because we tend to be cautious with our prayers.  We save up our prayers for the really important times, as if we only get so many, and we don't want to run out.  This may sound silly, but you know you have all thought that at one time or another.  Maybe you didn't think that exact thought, but you did hold back from asking God for something because it wasn't that important, and He had bigger things to think about.  We have all done this.  We want to pray that our child wins the football game, but then we feel guilty because there are people with real problems, and we are taking God's attention away from them to ask Him to help our kids win a football game or to help me find a parking spot.  This verse is telling us something that we already know on some level but have trouble believing.  God does not grow tired or weary.  God can help you with your small request and help someone else with their giant request all at the same time.  He can do it all and still not grow tired or weary. He is that amazing.The next line in the verse says that no one can fathom his understanding.  We can't even begin to understand all that the Lord knows.  We see how he is working in our lives, and we think He is a little crazy, or we think He is upset with us because things aren't going our way.  We don't understand that all these things are happening so that His plan for us to have ridiculous goodness can come to fruition.  We needed to lose that job to get this better one.  We needed to lose that sense of security to appreciate it when we regained it.  We needed to go through that hard time to show someone else they can get through it, too.  We can't fathom the Lord's understanding.  It's just like it says in Isaiah 55:8: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.”  The Lord knows what He is doing.  It is ok if we don't understand.  It will all make sense one dayThe next line says, “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.”  This is something that can help us if we can remember it.  He gives strength to the weary.  How long have we been weary for?  Did we know that God would give us strength?  Did we ask for it?  If a lot is weighing down on your heart, I want you to know I am right there with you.  There isn't a single person I know right now who is coasting through life with no troubles.  We are all weary.  I think it is a condition of living in a broken world.  We are imperfect; we all hurt each other, sometimes without even knowing it.  We have fallen into an age where our own pleasure and our own wants trump all else.  We don't want to hurt our loved ones, and we also don't want to give up the things that we want.  We are weary because we are trying to exist in a world that doesn't understand the Christian way of life.  We are weary because we rely on the world to give us our strength when our Lord sits by, watching and trying to offer us the strength we need.  However, we are so busy trying to do it all ourselves that we don't see him there handing it out.  What is coming to me right now is that we need to stop turning to the world to get our strength and our power.  Yes, the world does offer us power, and it might feel good for a while to have that power.  However, if you find your power from he world, you will never be fulfilled.  You will always be searching for more.  You will have this part of you that will always feel empty.  However, if you turn to the Lord and ask him for your strength and power, He will fill you up completely.  You will be lacking nothing.  It says in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 “But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”  God's power is made perfect in our weakness.  How great would it be if we could be like St. Paul and delight in our weaknesses, insults, hardships, and persecutions?  How often will we need to hear that God will give us strength when we are weary and power when we are weak before we actually believe it?  How long will we turn away from God and look elsewhere to find our power before we return to Him and ask Him?  He is standing there ready to give us all we need for the day, and we are too busy looking everywhere for it that we don't see it.  The verse ends with a great visual.  Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” First, it tells us that everyone grows weary.  It is not just those who have been around for a long time; even the youth grow weary.  Actually, our youth, in particular, these days, seem to be growing weary.  None of us are exempt, yet it says, those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  When we are weary and weak, it is hard to hope.  When we are weary, it is usually because the enemy has worn us down, and we are fresh out of hope.  However, this verse tells us that if we hope in the Lord, he will renew our strength.  There it is again. This verse repeats that the Lord is our strength.  Maybe this time will be the time that we truly hear it.  Maybe today we will believe that the Lord does not grow weary and He doesn't grow tired.  Wouldn't it be great if today is the day that we finally start turning to the Lord and asking him for that strength and power that he is just waiting to give us?I heard these two phrases a few times over the last few days, and they just came to mind again, so I would like to share them with you.  The first is the phrase, “more Lord more.”  The Lord has so much more for you.  We don't want to ask for more sometimes because we don't want to be greedy.  We settle for little answers to our prayers because we don't want to push our luck or feel we should just be happy with what we get.  The Lord wants us to ask for more.  Yes, be grateful for what you receive and still ask for more.  In the book “The Circle Maker,” the author, Mark Batterson, talks about a man praying for rain as they hadn't had rain in a very long time.  This man drew a circle in the ground and told the Lord he would not leave that circle until the rain came.  It finally started to sprinkle.  Everyone started to rejoice, and the man started to pray harder.  He said that was not the rain he was praying for. He was praying for more rain, and it began to rain harder.  He still said that was not the rain he was praying for.  Finally it started to rains so hard that everyone had to run for cover.  The Lord wants to do this in your life as well.  Start saying, “Thank you, Lord, and more, Lord, more.”  Be open to more, and be willing to ask the Lord for more.The other phrase I heard was in the Life in the Spirit Seminar video.  David Mangan was talking about the gifts of the Holy Spirit.  He talked about how we should all be open to whatever gifts the Holy Spirit wants to give us, particularly the gift of speaking in tongues.  This is one that people often don't want as they find it weird.  David said he is open to any gifts the Lord is passing out, and he is getting in line twice.  Then he said, “It's not that I am greedy; it's that I am needy.”  I love this because it is so true.  We don't have to feel as though we are greedy when we say “more Lord more.” We are needy; we all are.  We can't do anything without the Lord, which makes us pretty needy.  I keep feeling as though the Holy Spirit really wants you to hear that the Lord has so much more for each and every one of you.  Our prayers are too little. He is bigger than we give Him credit for.  Stop playing little with your prayers.  Step out in faith and ask for what you truly want; God has more for you.  He does not grow weary or get tired.  Keep asking, don't limit yourself, Our God is a Big God who can do Big things.  He is standing by, waiting for you to trust that and for you to step out in faith and ask for the miracle you have been wanting but are too afraid to ask for.  Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless everyone listening to this episode today.  Lord, you are amazing.  I love it when you speak to me, and you give a specific message for everyone listening.  Lord, help us to believe and truly accept that you don't grow weary or tired and that you love when we come to you.  Help us to turn to you for all we need, Lord.  Help us to look to you for our strength and power, Lord. Help us to say “more Lord more” with the expectant faith that you want to give us more, that you have more to give.  Lord, I know you were speaking to some people individually when you said we needed to step out in faith and ask for more.  I pray that those individuals hear that message deep in their hearts and that You give them the boldness and trust they need to pray those big prayers.  Help us all to pray those big prayers, Lord.  Give us the grace of a more expectant faith, Lord.  We believe, help our unbelief.  Lord, I especially want to pray for those who are weary and need your strength.  Help them, Lord, give them more.  We love you, Lord; you are so amazing.  We are so grateful that with all you give to us, you are telling us to ask for more.  We will take all you have to offer, Lord, not because we are greedy, but because we are needy.  We ask all of this in accordance with your word and in Jesus' holy name, AmenThank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.

Today we explore the Apostle Paul's missionary journey to Corinth, where he faces opposition but remains steadfast in spreading the Gospel. The Gospel is available to all people, regardless of their background or past. Drawing parallels between ancient Corinth and modern cities like Las Vegas, we see how the Gospel can shine brightly in the midst of a sinful world. Through the story of Paul and his encounter with the synagogue leader Crispus, we encourages believers to share their stories of transformation and to continue spreading the hope of Jesus to those who are far from God.

Having such a beautiful BIG God we sometimes diminish the fact that He cares about our smallest concerns, our smallest struggles, our what we believe is insignificant requests; when actually in fact He cares so deeply for ALL our concerns not just the tragic BIG ones. I hope you know after this episode how much He truly cares about every little aspect of YOU! :) 

God keeps His word. Whatever He has said, He will do. There's no limitations or deterring factors on anything He has promised. Why? Cause He's a BIG GOD. In this final installment of this series, you will be encouraged to respond with faith to the God who will always get you to where He promised.

This weekend we will look at Acts 16:1-15 to reflect on what happens when we respond to Jesus' call, but get stymied in some way when we think we are following him. Just how does "being led by God work" in those moments?

Pastor emphasizes that we serve a BIG God with significant plans for our lives, particularly as we look ahead to 2025. He encourages us to recognize that while life can present overwhelming challenges, these difficulties are merely brushstrokes in the greater masterpiece God is creating. By reflecting on Romans 8:28, he reminds us that our sufferings serve a purpose, ultimately working together for good as we are molded into the image of Christ. Ultimately, he reassures us that God's artistry will eventually reveal a beautiful picture, reminding us to trust in His grand design even amid life's storms.
