Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we continue our tour through Psalms 63–72, discovering a recurring pattern that runs throughout these songs: life's circumstances may rise and fall, but God's people always have reasons to praise Him.David begins in Psalm 63 by expressing a deep longing for God, reminding us that worship is not dependent on our circumstances but on the unchanging character of the One we worship. As we move through these psalms, we see God rewarding the righteous, actively working in His creation, and faithfully caring for His people. From the praise of all the earth in Psalm 66 to the missionary heart of Psalm 67, we are reminded that God's blessings are meant to display His glory among the nations.We also explore the vivid imagery of Psalm 68 as God is portrayed as the victorious King taking His throne, and we see how these psalms continue to build on the larger story of Scripture. In Psalms 69 and 70, David honestly acknowledges his own sin and his need for God's help, while Psalm 71 provides a beautiful model for overcoming discouragement by remembering God's lifelong faithfulness and responding with praise.Finally, we conclude with Psalm 72, which closes Book Two of the Psalms with a glorious vision of the righteous King whose reign extends to the ends of the earth. While originally connected to Solomon, this psalm ultimately points us to the greater King, the Messiah, whose kingdom will never end. The book closes with a doxology, reminding us that no matter how many hardships we encounter along the journey, praise belongs to God.As you listen, notice how these psalms continually connect back to the larger story of the Old Testament. To help you recognize those connections, we've created a companion PDF that traces the story of the Old Testament and highlights the events and themes the psalmists often reference. It's available on our website for $1.99 and is a great resource for individuals and families who want to read the Psalms with greater context and confidence.If you want the FREE hand outs that go along with this series, sign up for our newsletter at our website.

Ready for more Kate Daniels? You might think the next stop after Magic Bites is Book Two, but I'd actually recommend taking a quick detour first.In this spoiler-lite review, I'm discussing A Questionable Client, Ilona Andrews' prequel story to the Kate Daniels series. Although it was published several books after Magic Bites, I think it's the perfect companion piece to read immediately after Book One. It expands the world, gives us more time with Kate, the Mercenary Guild, and Saiman, delivers an entertaining mystery, and adds meaningful context without spoiling what's to come.In this review, we'll cover:* Publication details and where this story fits in the series* Why I chose to read it now* A spoiler-lite review* Eight reasons you might enjoy it* Three reasons it may not be for you* My final thoughts on whether it's worth your timeIf you're reading through the Kate Daniels series for the first time — or considering starting it — I hope this review helps you decide when to fit this excellent little adventure into your journey.Have you read A Questionable Client? Do you agree it's best read immediately after Magic Bites, or do you prefer publication order? Let me know in the comments!

Today we discuss the launch of Laws of Life, Book Two, Now Build the System for Your Life. That matters because the world is not going to get less stupid any time soon.

Find something rare, make it sound like the black death, then hope most people never check the math. We will talk about Powassan virus and the reality that you are twice as likely to die from being struck by lightning. We will also look at the latest … Continue reading →

YA fiction with a young woman's dreams, family secrets, and tough decisions? Sign me up. Listen in and see why Wildflowers might just be exactly what Christian YA needs note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. I loved that Samantha focused on how easy it is to see things as God's will when convenience comes into play. Wildflowers by Samantha Roman The show might not go on for Candy—and maybe not even her relationship with Scott. Just when her band is finally gaining traction, Candy is about to lose her spot. Then a devastating fire destroys the Chancellor Homes building, turning Honeybrook upside down and tearing open wounds she thought had healed. As a buried family secret rises from the ashes, Candy stands at a crossroads: walk away from her music to save the people she loves… or keep chasing the dream that once felt God-given. When an unexpected "wildflower" appears in her path, she begins to wonder if God still blesses broken roads—and whether they still lead to the cross. For fans of Christian YA fiction, faith-based coming-of-age stories, and clean teen romance with a strong spiritual core, Candy's journey in Wildflowers is a heartfelt look at what it means to follow God when everything is falling apart. Dead men tell no tales… or do they? Leslie's past comes roaring back when a thirty-year-old mistake resurfaces, ending her fragile peace. A teenage accident she can't undo collides with a present-day crisis no mother could ignore. And when she meets Chris, a man who brings unexpected light into her dark season, she must choose between protecting him… or risking everything to love again. As mother and daughter face the secrets, sins, and second chances that refuse to stay buried, they'll discover that even in the wreckage, wildflowers still grow. Wildflowers is Book Two in the Honeybrook High series, a small-town Christian young adult saga that began with Butterflies, a novel about grief, hope, and redemption. This second installment deepens Candy and Leslie's story with more family drama, stronger faith themes, and a reminder that God can redeem even the worst mistakes. Christian YA novel with dual POV (teen daughter and mom) Clean teen fiction Perfect for readers who love small-town Christian fiction Explores grief, forgiveness, family secrets, and second chances Ideal for Christian teens, moms, youth groups, and book clubs If you enjoy emotional Christian YA series with real-life struggles and hopeful, faith-filled endings, you'll love returning to Honeybrook in Wildflowers.

The Fathers bring us to a place where the soul is stripped of every illusion about itself. We imagine that we see clearly. We imagine that we understand others. We imagine that our words are necessary. And they tell us plainly. Be silent. A brother burns with the thought that he must speak, must reveal, must correct. Yet the Elder cuts through this urgency without hesitation. Say nothing. The Lord will take care of it. This is not indifference. This is faith. We speak because we do not trust God. We intervene because we believe that without us truth will not prevail. Beneath much of what we call zeal lies anxiety for ourselves and a hidden desire to justify our own heart. The Fathers do not negotiate with this. Silence is safer than righteousness mixed with passion. And if a brother has been exposed, even unjustly, how is he to respond? Not with self defense. Not with resentment. Not even with a demand for justice. He is to believe that the one who spoke did so for his good. This is a word that wounds the heart. To receive accusation as love. To give thanks for what humbles. To increase in love for the one who has caused pain. This is not psychology. This is the Cross. The one who lives in this way makes swift progress because he has stepped outside the logic of the world. He no longer defends an identity. He entrusts himself entirely to God. And so correction itself is transformed. The Fathers do not permit harshness born of agitation. If the heart is disturbed, the mouth must remain closed. Words spoken in turmoil do not heal. They infect. One must wait. Wait until the heart becomes still. Wait until peace returns. Then speak quietly, as if into the ear of the brother. Even here there is no formula. One must discern the soul before him. One must become small. One must abandon the authority that comes from position and take on the authority that comes from humility. And even then, correction may not be received. It does not matter. One has done what is given. God will do what remains. The Fathers expose something deeper still. Even acts of humility can be poisoned. A prostration can be filled with vainglory. Silence can conceal indifference. Authority can corrupt the mind without being noticed. Pride, the sense of power, and vainglory move quietly within everything. If these are not despised, nothing bears fruit. So the soul stands in a narrow place. Do not speak out of passion. Do not remain silent out of negligence. Do not correct to justify yourself. Do not humble yourself to be seen. There is no resting place here. Only vigilance. Only repentance. Only the slow purification of the heart. And then the Fathers place before us a final blow to our presumption. A monk is seen with a woman. He is judged. He is condemned. He is beaten. Even a saint is deceived. The Patriarch believes he is acting with zeal. The accusers believe they are protecting righteousness. All are certain. All are wrong. The truth is hidden. The monk bears wounds without protest. His life is pure. His intention is love. He carries a soul toward Christ while others condemn him in the name of Christ. This is the blindness of the fallen mind. We see appearances. We draw conclusions. We act with confidence. And we wound the righteous. Only when God Himself reveals the truth does the illusion collapse. And what is revealed is terrifying in its simplicity. There are servants of God hidden everywhere. Unknown. Misunderstood. Condemned. And we pass judgment on them with ease. The monk refuses even the gift offered to him. If a monk has faith, he has no need of money. If he loves money, he has lost faith. His freedom exposes everyone. His silence judges without speaking. His life reveals that the Kingdom of God is not what we imagine. The Fathers leave us with nothing to hold onto except this. Guard your tongue. Distrust your judgment. Humble yourself in all things. And entrust everything to God. Because the moment we believe that we see clearly, we have already fallen into darkness. And the moment we cease to defend ourselves and others before God, something begins to open.A way of seeing that is not our own. A love that does not accuse. A silence in which God Himself speaks. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:22:28 jonathan: 1 John 5:16-17 If anyone sees his brother sinning, if the sin is not deadly, he should pray to God and he will give him life. This is only for those whose sin is not deadly. There is such a thing as deadly sin, about which I do not say that you should pray. All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not deadly. 00:27:25 Julie: Good book Searching for and maintaining peace by Father Jacques Philippe 00:28:50 jonathan: Yes it was Paul, he mentioned it in both 1 Timothy 1:19–20 and 1 Corinthians 5:5 00:34:46 Forrest: The Greek word here is not usually one for "Sin". It is more like making mistakes, as far as I read it. 00:42:13 Erick Chastain: Elder Aimilianos says that for some characters to be gentle with them is to make them a demon. 00:56:26 Joan Chakonas: Interesting that there are very few situations when in the course of my lay life I am called upon to make correction of another. I hope that if such a need arises I find a way to do it- with Gods guidance-because I sort of approach my duty to God like my job here on earth and I have to make it happen. I imagine the need for correction arises out of a need to avoid harm to a third party. 01:00:00 Kevin Burke: I wrote down that we started volume 2 on 11/27/23 01:14:18 Julie: It reminds me of the story of the monk that was an alcoholic and died. 01:16:31 Joan Chakonas: My takeaway was how easy it is to make a wildly wrong judgment . 01:18:46 Lorraine: Thank you 01:18:49 Rebecca Thérèse: Thank you☺️ 01:18:55 Andrew Adams: Thanks be to God! Thank you, Father! 01:18:58 Joan Chakonas: Thanks Father! 01:19:01 Kevin Burke: Thank You Father! 01:19:06 Jessica McHale: Thank you! Many prayers!!!!! 01:19:16 jonathan: Thanks Father, God bless❤️ 01:19:29 Caroline: Thank you ♥️
