Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by MW B. Stuart Parker, PGM – Manitoba, and was first delivered to a Communication of the Grand Lodge of North Dakota. Here, MW Bro Parker should like to attempt to sketch out his concept of the true heart of the Fraternity, the source of the power that Freemasonry has to develop such an intense loyalty in the hearts of the husbands and fathers and sons who are its members. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.
Today we'll look at God's baby picture. It's a paradox, isn't it? The uncreated God had no beginning, but He gave Himself a human beginning. And that's what we celebrate at Christmas. Jesus is "the image of the invisible God," a kind of living photograph to bring the Transcendent One down into the realm of our senses. And He is much more, as we began to see yesterday in the first chapter of Colossians. Let's continue there, with Pastor Jim.

You didn't get to choose where you were born - but Jesus did! "The barn out back" wasn't Joseph's and Mary's first choice for a "birthing suite" - or their second choice, or their one-hundredth choice. To them it must have seemed like an emergency, makeshift solution. But all was going according to plan. Today Jim will help us see the Lord's birth from Heaven's perspective.

The stronger Christian is obligated to the weaker - but doesn't the weaker one have some responsibilities, too? We've been looking at Romans 14, and "doubtful things," to use the old term, matters of individual conscience. We're going to have higher expectations of those who are more mature, but even the most fragile believer has something to do, something to offer.

Send us a textWhat happens when two brothers decide to stop overthinking it and build a design studio around the kind of work they actually want to make?In this episode, we're joined by Jordan and Jeremy Coon of Brethren Design Co., a two-person studio built on trust, contrast, and a shared love of making things that are fun, expressive, and a little chaotic (in the best way). We discuss what it's really like to work with family, how they naturally fell into different roles, and why embracing each other's strengths has been key to their success.We also dig into how they educate clients, move past the “I just need a logo” mindset, and create space for projects that don't neatly fit into one box, from branding and packaging to fonts, board games, and beyond. Along the way, they share honest insight from quitting their day jobs, navigating LinkedIn as designers, and why doing work you genuinely enjoy tends to attract the right opportunities. All that and more when you listen to this episode:What it's like building a studio with your sibling How different creative strengths naturally turn into clear business rolesThe chaos vs. structure dynamic and why both are necessaryWhen and how they decided to quit their full-time jobsWhy educating clients is a designer's responsibility How showing process helps clients understand valueWhy they don't niche themselves into a single categoryHow fun, personality-driven work attracts the right clients Why they removed pressure from fonts by not tying them to revenue goalsCold outreach, long-game visibility, and unexpected referralsDesigning a full board game and how that opportunity came togetherLetting curiosity lead to new creative directions Connect with Brethren Design Co.Website: https://www.brethrendesignco.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brethrendesignco/ Mentioned in this episode:Chicken and the WolfSliced Beer Four Fathers (Website Design) Joe MooreVision Board KitSolid RootsMind the GapNetflix Project Connect with Katie & Ilana from Goodtype Goodtype Website Goodtype on Instagram Goodtype on Youtube Love The Typecast and free stuff?

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by Bro Conrad Hahn, and first published in December 1964. In the Entered Apprentice degree, brotherly love, relief, and truth are described as the Tenets of the Fraternity, and this Bulletin is meant to instruct us about the second of these, Relief. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge, and do make this second tenet a rule and guide for your conduct.
You can't judge someone into joy. If righteousness, peace and joy are the land, sea and sky of the Kingdom of God, then what are we doing worrying about our brother's diet? Or have we forgotten which kingdom we're in? Paul writes very clearly about these things in Romans 14; the challenge is applying them to our day, and our concerns.

A @Christadelphians Video: A @Christadelphians Video: This Audio Book by Harry Tennant (read by Paul Cresswell) invites us to pursue a path through the Word of God whilst examining the faith of a Christadelphian.It deals freely and in detail with the things which Christadelphians believe and do, and what their organisation and way of life are like.The community has borne the name Christadelphian since the latter half of the 19th century. The name is intended to cover three words: 'Brethren in Christ'. Christadelphians are to be found in countries all over the world. They are bound together by a common faith in the gospel preached by Jesus Christ and his apostles in the first century.It was this faith and its appeal to men and women from all walks of life which brought the community into existence.This series will clearly show how the Christadelphian faith rests squarely and solely on the Bible as the Word of God.And the true Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God - Romans 10:17.**[Revealing] Discover the foundational beliefs of the Christadelphians in this outstanding and insightful Bible talk by Harry Tennant. Based on his thought-provoking book, this expositional presentation provides a clear, Scripture-based guide to what Christadelphians believe and preach. Explore the coherent Biblical hope centered on God's purpose from creation to the coming Kingdom. A wonderful resource for sincere seekers of truth.**[Revealing] A wonderful and insightful expositional study on the profound biblical truth about death. In this thought-provoking presentation, we examine Scripture's clear teaching on mortality, the nature of the soul, and the outstanding hope of resurrection through Christ.
"Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” Psalm 46:10 As we find ourselves in the middle of this month, take a moment to reflect. Just like a lush garden needs time to breathe and bloom, our spiritual lives thrive in stillness. Scripture reminds us in Psalm 46:10, "Be still, and know that I am God." This call to pause is not merely an invitation; it's a powerful opportunity to deepen our connection with the Divine. Think of Jesus, who frequently withdrew to lonely places to pray, as we see in Mark 6:31. His moments of solitude were not signs of weakness, but rather opportunities for renewal and closeness with His Father. When we carve out time in our busy lives, much like a breath mark in a musical score, we create space for intimacy to flourish. The hustle may tempt us to rush, but in doing so, we risk losing the melody of our relationship with God. Mark 6:31 says, Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, 'Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.” This weekend, set aside a Sabbath hour and guard it like the precious appointment it is. Let it be a space where your heart can rest and your spirit can reconnect. Remember the wisdom of Paul Borthwick: “Busyness is the enemy of intimacy.” By choosing still moments, we find ourselves wrapped in God's presence, immersing our souls in a sacred rhythm that brings us closer to Him. As you engage in this stillness, remember, "A rested soul prays without words. The calm we keep makes room for God to speak." So, let your stillness become a sanctuary because in the hush between breaths, you will hear God clearly. Embrace this assurance, and let His peace wash over you. Acknowledge that “rest is worship too,” as it is in these quiet moments that we truly honor His presence in our lives. Exodus 33:14 says, "The LORD replied, 'My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of stillness. Brethren, I pray for you, may the Holy Spirit help you to cherish your quiet moments with God, allowing intimacy to bloom in your heart. May your soul grow familiar with His whisper, and may His gentle presence quiet every anxious thought. In the stillness, may you find refuge, wisdom for your steps, and courage for your battles. May His peace guard your heart and mind, and His love steady you like an anchor in the storm. As you wait before Him, may your affections be reordered, your strength renewed, and your vision clarified. May gratitude rise, obedience deepen, and hope abound. May the secret place become your sure dwelling, and the knowledge of His nearness be your daily song. In Jesus' name. Amen.

The first obstacle to Christian unity is my pride. That's a real "Dog Bites Man" headline, isn't it? Of course our pride ruins everything - but especially our ability to bond with others. And that's essential for the church to flourish, and carry out God's program. The lesson we learned in Romans 12, about not thinking of ourselves more highly than we ought to think... that'll be needed here, in chapters 14 and 15. Here's Jim to open the final sermon in our Romans series.

THIS EPISODE The game comes to an end... ----more---- ABOUT THE STORY The Hounds of Hübschdorf (formerly called 'Grauwald's Game') is an epic fantasy audiobook by Audio Epics that has been released on Halloween, since it has serious dark fantasy and grimdark vibes. This brand new Witch Hunter Tale is the direct prequel to Witch Hunter. If you like a dark adventure story you'll probably enjoy this grim journey in the original fantasy setting of Hruda, inspired by everything we love: RPG settings like the Old World from Warhammer fantasy, eighties fantasy movies and J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth (amongst others). PLOT SUMMARY When three Witch Hunters fail to return from a routine investigation, Master Ludlov and Initiate Tolfmann find themselves in a small village near the woods. While investigating the strange disappearance of their Brethren, it becomes obvious the mayor is not so keen on their arrival, and the villagers seem to prefer the distraction of the Graunacht festivities to their nosing around. When their inquest reveals a dark mystery involving evil magic and undead, Ludlov faces the true cause of the threat in a place more disturbing than he could have imagined. WANT TO SUPPORT US?

Are the "strong" really as strong as they think they are? When the Apostle Paul divides us into those strong in the faith, and those who are weaker, what are we to make of that? Is this a proper way to promote unity - by splitting people into categories? Or does he want us to reflect more deeply on who we are, and what is our real position relative to our spiritual relatives? It isn't the position of "critic." Here's Jim to complete his message, Tolerance that Pleases God.

"We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done." Psalm 78:4Have you ever considered the profound impact of the legacies we inherit? Just as a relay race passes the torch from one runner to another, our spiritual journeys are often illuminated by the flames carried by those before us. In the Bible, we see this beautifully exemplified in the relationship between Lois and Eunice, who both nurtured young Timothy's faith. Their commitment to teaching and living out their beliefs paved the way for Timothy's future leadership in the early church.Psalm 78:4 reminds us, "We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD." This divine call encourages us to share our faith stories, much like Lois and Eunice, who instilled unwavering faith in Timothy through their example and guidance. Their legacy exemplifies how spiritual devotion can ripple through time, nurturing those we may never meet. 2 Timothy 1:5 says, "I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also."Consider this: “Legacy is planting seeds in a garden you never see,” as noted by Hamilton. When we invest in the spiritual growth of others, we may not see those seeds blossom today, but we trust that God nurtures them. Just as we drink from wells we did not dig, we walk in the path illuminated by the faith of those who came before us. Our actions today can ignite the flames of faith in future generations.Take a moment to reach out to an elder who has significantly influenced your spiritual journey. A simple call or message asking how to pray for them can be a powerful way to honor their legacy and carry the flame forward. As we move forward, may we carry the flame of faith with courage and conviction, illuminating the paths of those who follow us. Hebrews 12:1 says, "Therefore, since such a great cloud of witnesses surrounds us, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us."Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for the legacies that light our way. Brethren, I pray for you that as you move forward, may your words be warm embers that comfort the weary and awaken the hopeful. May your deeds be steady lanterns — held high in the night — guiding children, neighbors, and even strangers toward truth, mercy, and peace. When the winds of doubt rise, may your flame not be extinguished but shielded by wisdom, fed by prayer, and brightened by fellowship. In Jesus' name. Amen,
There are just too many opinions these days... that's my opinion. Everyone has a point of view. In the church we even have opinions about other people's opinions - but we don't call them that. No, we have "convictions." And when other people's convictions about how to honor God conflict with our convictions, they're just wrong. Obviously. In Romans, Paul is very concerned about that attitude, because it leads to dysfunction in the Body of Christ.

We delve into the haunting echoes of faith, family, and freedom with acclaimed author Rebecca Stott. Her memoir, In the Days of Rain, is a lyrical and courageous exploration of life inside and beyond the Exclusive Brethren, a fundamentalist Christian sect that shaped her childhood and shadowed her family's history. Rebecca joins us to unpack the complexities of growing up in a world governed by rigid doctrine and separation from society and the Aberdeen era that will forever leave a mark on the Exclusive Brethren's history. We'll explore how her father, once a senior member of the Brethren, led their family out of the sect and how that rupture reverberated across generations. With remarkable insight and tenderness, Rebecca reflects on belief, rebellion, and the power of storytelling to reclaim identity. Whether you're drawn to memoir, religious history, or the resilience of the human spirit, this conversation promises to be unforgettable.

What is "good?" Governor Pilate famously asked, "What is truth?" But he, and every political ruler, should also be asking every day, "What is good? How should the force of government be rightly applied?" As we're looking into Romans 12 and 13, we're finding a lot of good insights into how Christians ought to relate to the state, to society, and to our circumstances.

In the junkyard the meanest dog wins. But we're not in the junkyard anymore. Early in Paul's letter to the Romans we meet a different kind of God: The incorruptible Judge who does not wink at sin, but who also saves from sin. In chapter 12 we're charged with being a different kind of worshiper. We have duties not just to Heaven, but here on Earth. We'll talk about 4 of those obligations in a message called, Delivered by Deferring.

Maple Park Church Sermon - December 7th, 2025 - Second Sunday of Advent by Maple Park Church
Galatians 4 New King James VersionSons and Heirs Through Christ4 Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all, 2 but is under guardians and stewards until the time appointed by the father. 3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world. 4 But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5 to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” 7 Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.Fears for the Church8 But then, indeed, when you did not know God, you served those which by nature are not gods. 9 But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage? 10 You observe days and months and seasons and years. 11 I am afraid for you, lest I have labored for you in vain.12 Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all. 13 You know that because of physical infirmity I preached the gospel to you at the first. 14 And my trial which was in my flesh you did not despise or reject, but you received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 15 What then was the blessing you enjoyed? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes and given them to me. 16 Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?17 They zealously court you, but for no good; yes, they want to exclude you, that you may be zealous for them. 18 But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you. 19 My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you, 20 I would like to be present with you now and to change my tone; for I have doubts about you.Two Covenants21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar— 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children— 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. 27 For it is written:“Rejoice, O barren,You who do not bear!Break forth and shout,You who are not in labor!For the desolate has many more childrenThan she who has a husband.”28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise. 29 But, as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, even so it is now. 30 Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? “Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.” 31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free.
Look... Present... Renew. If we've understood the truths spelled-out in the first 11 chapters of Romans, a response should be rising inside us. In chapter 12 Paul shows us how to shape that response: Take a good look at God's good mercies, make a rational offering of our bodies, and renew our minds. The Apostle gets more specific as he goes on. Here's Jim with the conclusion of his sermon, Living the Good Life.

Have you laid your 67 percent on the altar? If God has my spirit and my soul, but not my body, isn't He missing about a third of me? Well, we can't split ourselves up into percentages that way. So the question is, if we've given Him less than all, are we really "His" at all? In Romans 12 Paul urges us to give a kind of offering that involves all 3 dimensions of our being.

We highlight and rejoice in the closed countries where we are heard. We want you to know we remember you daily in our prayers and are blessed you listen. I struggled in the first year of my salvation in the area of prayer. Forty-five or so years ago, I neither understood, comprehended, nor apprehended that I was in a new and authentic relationship with my Creator, Savior, and Internal Companion who indwells us all. It took most of those forty years to realize the true nature of eternal life was:"And this is eternal life, that they may know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent."John 17:3How I learned that in the 20-year struggle with depression!Here is a quick outline of where we begin this episode.1. We were created for community with our Creator.2. We are born estranged (not in community) from our Creator.3. We have been recreated for the community with our Creator. 4. Our journey, peace, meaning, comfort, contentment, and abundant life are born, nurtured, and grown from our community with our Creator. 5. Heaven, eternal life, is learning to know our Creator.Our So What?And our journey in this lifetime. The peace, meaning, comfort, contentment, and abundant life we were promised and longed for are only nurtured and grown in our community with our Heavenly Father. Brethren, let's pray for one another."What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

The pill that cures your disease is in your mouth. Salvation - achieving right standing with God, and receiving all the benefits that go with that - is hard. It's harder than hard, if you try to do it yourself. But if we let God give us His rightness, then it's easy. Yesterday we began to look at Romans 10, and we saw that salvation is available to everyone. Jim has two more points to bring out, today. But we open with a prophecy by Isaiah.

Could salvation be that easy? The devil would like us to imagine righteousness as something high and far-off; difficult to attain, even difficult to understand - as if salvation were a kind of sadistic and impossible puzzle. But God exposed that lie way back in Deuteronomy - in the passage Paul quotes in Romans 10. We'll look at that passage today, and Jim will help us make 3 discoveries from this chapter. Here's part 1 of, Mercy for All.

A @Christadelphians Video: This Audio Book by Harry Tennant (read by Paul Cresswell) invites us to pursue a path through the Word of God whilst examining the faith of a Christadelphian.It deals freely and in detail with the things which Christadelphians believe and do, and what their organisation and way of life are like.The community has borne the name Christadelphian since the latter half of the 19th century. The name is intended to cover three words: 'Brethren in Christ'. Christadelphians are to be found in countries all over the world. They are bound together by a common faith in the gospel preached by Jesus Christ and his apostles in the first century.It was this faith and its appeal to men and women from all walks of life which brought the community into existence.This series will clearly show how the Christadelphian faith rests squarely and solely on the Bible as the Word of God.And the true Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God - Romans 10:17.**[Revealing] Discover the foundational beliefs of the Christadelphians in this outstanding and insightful Bible talk by Harry Tennant. Based on his thought-provoking book, this expositional presentation provides a clear, Scripture-based guide to what Christadelphians believe and preach. Explore the coherent Biblical hope centered on God's purpose from creation to the coming Kingdom. A wonderful resource for sincere seekers of truth.**

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by MW Bro Carl H. Claudy and first published in December 1926. Here we find an imaginative tale of the WM of a small country Lodge, who is dissatisfied with the seeming unimportance of his Lodge in the community, and the testimonies of community members who think otherwise. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.
This wasn't Israel's first catastrophic failure. If you want to know what God's going to do with His chosen people now that they have unchosen Him, just leaf backwards in your Bible to one of the many times it happened in the past. Paul is doing that in Romans 9. He picks a couple of scenes from the life of Moses to show that God is sovereign in His mercy, and God is just in His sovereignty. Here's Jim with the final part of his sermon, Can God be Trusted?

Addendum:We begin with a challenge to the special ones who listen but are in Christ, part of the Kingdom of Christ. We welcome Hong Kong and are glad you joined the Free Range Preacher on Prayer.In part two of our signature episode, we find that through the Messiah, we have been reconciled to God, we are no longer enemies but Children, and we are brought into a new and transparent relationship with one another. Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.2 Corinthians 5:18-19For all of you who were baptized into Christ, have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.Galatians 2:27-29Our So What?We know how to initiate, grow, and deepen our human relationships, and those principles apply to our new relationship with God.Why are both truths important to our prayer lives? Next time. Brethren, let's pray for one another."What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

Can you steal a promise? God's promises to Israel - can the church just "appropriate" them? After all, they're not using them. It's hardly even theft. No, as we saw yesterday, God has not disowned the Jewish people. Despite their rejection of the Promised One, His promises stand. In Romans 9 through 11 Paul gives some illustrations of the faithfulness of God. These are historical events that every Hebrew - and every Christian - should know.

Ludlov learns about Tolfmann's secret as the two continue their adventure beyond the borders of the Red Circle... ----more---- ABOUT THE STORY The Hounds of Hübschdorf (formerly called 'Grauwald's Game') is an epic fantasy audiobook by Audio Epics that has been released on Halloween, since it has serious dark fantasy and grimdark vibes. This brand new Witch Hunter Tale is the direct prequel to Witch Hunter. If you like a dark adventure story you'll probably enjoy this grim journey in the original fantasy setting of Hruda, inspired by everything we love: RPG settings like the Old World from Warhammer fantasy, eighties fantasy movies and J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth (amongst others). PLOT SUMMARY When three Witch Hunters fail to return from a routine investigation, Master Ludlov and Initiate Tolfmann find themselves in a small village near the woods. While investigating the strange disappearance of their Brethren, it becomes obvious the mayor is not so keen on their arrival, and the villagers seem to prefer the distraction of the Graunacht festivities to their nosing around. When their inquest reveals a dark mystery involving evil magic and undead, Ludlov faces the true cause of the threat in a place more disturbing than he could have imagined. WANT TO SUPPORT US?

Your mentor is the Holy Spirit - if you'll listen to Him! We've been examining Romans, chapter 8, learning to be led by the Spirit rather than leaning on the Law. The Spirit of God is speaking to us, and He's speaking to God for us. And right in the middle of this chapter of freedom and comfort and wonderful promises, is the hard reality of suffering. Yes, the Spirit is here to help us with that, as well. Here's Jim to conclude his sermon, Missing Link II.

Strive 26 might be compared to a vast tray of bland and innocuous cat litter, enriched in places with a few half-buried juicy and mephitic turds. In today's episode, the GAL team dons hazmat suits to venture across the sandy wasteland of meaningless acronyms, feel-good slogans and business buzzwords, to excavate and dissect the unpleasant fecal deposits carefully concealed therein by the alley cats of Ermington, AKA the Hales mafia family. In this, we have the invaluable aid of Scottish investigator Damian Hastie, who unerringly pursues the scent of Brethren malfeasance with the nightmarish persistence of the Hound of the Baskervilles.As we were recording this episode, the PBCC was hit by the devastating news that the UBT had plead guilty to a massive tax evasion scheme, and were in the process of repaying multiple millions of dollars to the ATO. The rising mushroom cloud of this ‘end-times' event casts a lurid glow over the Strive26 seminar and explains the unseemly haste to wrap up the pledge process ahead of this damning wake-up call to the long-suffering members of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/k1e0o8hbst8te76eptfmk/45000-153-1.mp4?rlkey=9kwblce6hni4eacbnfpuxom53&st=90uq88oa&dl=0Link to Articles and podcasts episodes-Plymouth Brethren Christian Church linked business network, UBT, repays millions to ATO- https://archive.ph/TnP7YWe're not a cult' and a call for $250 million: Inside Exclusive Brethren's rallying call to members- https://archive.ph/a5H6sSteve Simmons podcast re OSG scandal- https://youtu.be/HNnkaDA2BZ8?si=xljsxDr56E9VHc0BTo share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06PayPal link for USA- https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8Tz4n35OJ8Olive Leaf Network- https://oliveleaf.network/Thinking of Leaving Pamphlet and resources - https://oliveleaf.network/resources/Link to Anchor/Spotify- https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/G6sjHA2xHwbPreston Down Trust Decision-http://www.charitycommission.gov.uk/media/591398/preston_down_trust_full_decision.pdfAberdeen incident- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1riImgAqwaqGwjYq6vRQIr4_jscJA0eQN/view?usp=sharingIf we walk in the light letters-https://drive.google.com/file/d/14WlgJladl1r95YGxW0FbZ0prYfjlg7FU/view?usp=sharingAdmin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #pbcc #abuse #church #cult #religion #trauma #religioustrauma #sexualabuse #mindcontrol #brainwashing #conversation #exmembers #exposingtruth #expose #exposure #whistleblower #getalifepodcast #getalife #podcast #rules #strict #exclusivebrethren #brucehales #BruceHales #BDH #BruceDHales #UniversalBusinessTeam #UBT #RRT #RapidReliefTeam #Aberdeen #OneSchoolGlobal #OSG #johnhales #shutup #withdrawnfrom #worldly #excommunicate #assemblydeath #christiansect #christiancult #canadiancult #canadiansect #sect #worldwidesect #worldwidecult #cultescape #cultescapestory #bully #bullying #brokenfamily #awareness #cultescape #cultandculturepodcast #cultescapee #cultescapeer #cultescapeeinterview #askingforhelp #unispace
If you're going back to the Law, Jesus isn't going with you! Romans 3 through 8 reminds us of the letter to the Hebrews - because Jews and Gentiles alike feel the tug of rules and commandments. Maybe it's pride that tempts us to "add our good deeds" to the finished work of Christ. Maybe we like to sit in judgment of others who don't check the legalistic boxes that we check. Here's Jim at the first verse of Romans 7.

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode was written by MW Bro Conrad Hahn and first published in January 1964. The assassination of President Kennedy on November 22, 1963 was a national tragedy that stunned the world. We mourned.

For the next half-hour Jim would like to speak to the dead people in the audience. Everybody still with us? All of us are either dead in our sins, or dead to sin. To be "dead in our trespasses" (as we read about in Ephesians and Colossians) is to be cut off from life, the life of God. It's the other kind of Dearly Departed that Jim would like to address today: Those who have been resurrected from that death, and are now dead to sin. Let's listen.

We're all called to have territory in the Kingdom—a business, city, people group, or cause where we serve as first fruits and resource others. Graham Cooke explores how God is shifting us from network-focused ministry to geographic apostolic vision where entire cities can be transformed when we embrace the truth that other churches matter. Discover what it means to live from your present into your future rather than from your past into your present, and how this conversation with God about your territory is more urgent than you might think.Key Scriptures:+ Luke 6:38. "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you."+ Philippians 3:13-14. "Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."+ Ephesians 1:18. "The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints."+ Acts 17:6. "These who have turned the world upside down have come here too."**Want to explore more?**
