AS WE GO: Making Disciples & Planting Churches

Gospel Life Church exists to make disciples who make disciples and to plant churches that plantchurches.Many of us have heard that phrase before—but what does it actually mean? What is a disciple? How aredisciples made? What's my role in all of this? And let's be honest—church planting sounds intimidating.What if I'm not a church planter? As we grow in the gospel, we want to be very clear: the Bible doesn'tteach us that we grow for our own benefit. We grow so that we can go—and often, we'll discover that wegrow as we go.The Great Commission is the catalyst Jesus gave His disciples for gospel-driven growth.He gave them a mission, a method, and a message—and then reminded them that He is the one whomakes it all possible. Yes, some doubted, and all struggled in various ways, but Jesus still commissionedthem to “go and make disciples” and changed them with His Spirit as they went.By God's grace, Gospel Life, we are growing—in depth, in relationship, and in mission. We're planting achurch, digging deeper into God's Word, and praying that we might be a faithful gospel witness in thePuyallup Valley for many years to come. We invite you to hear and be compelled by the GreatCommission of Jesus Christ in this sermon series and to join us in faith as we endeavor to makedisciples and plant churches in this community for many years to come.Jesus declared that all authority in heaven and on earth is His and He promised to be with us to the veryend of the age. Therefore...will you join us as we go?

I know you're all used to Jason's weekly emails. This week, however, is Senior/Youth Sunday, and Jason has graciously given me the opportunity to preach, so you're stuck with me. I'm excited that the students will be leading us in worship this Sunday, and we will be recognizing the 2025 high school graduates during the second service. I will be continuing Jason's series in the book of Mark, chapter 6:1-6. As we've seen in Jesus' ministry, He has healed many sick people, calmed the wind and seas, and even raised the dead. You would think that after all these miraculous wonders, everyone would recognize who Jesus is and respond appropriately. However, in Mark 6:1-6, this isn't the case. In this section of Mark, the text shifts to show Jesus' own amazement at the unbelief of His hometown. This made me ask the question, “How do you respond to Jesus?” Do you respond with mere amazement at His words and deeds? Do you respond by being offended at His claims or commands? Ultimately, do you respond in faith or unbelief? I'm excited to dive deeper into this text and these questions. By God's grace, may He show us proper response to who He is and eliminate the unbelief in every area in our lives.

In AD 180, Charismatic ministry was very different than today. By God's grace, we need to somehow recover what was lost.Irenaeus (AD 180) - “Those who are in truth His disciples, receiving grace from Him, do in His name perform miracles, so as to promote the welfare of others, according to the gift which each one has received from Him. For some do certainly and truly drive out devils, so that those who have thus been cleansed from evil spirits frequently both believe [in Christ] and join the Church. Others have foreknowledge of things to come: they see visions and speak the prophecies they have received. Others still, heal the sick by laying their hands upon them, and they are healed. Moreover, as I have said, even the dead have been raised and remained among us for many years. And what more can I even say? It is not even possible to number all of the gifts which the Church, throughout the whole world, has received from God, in the name of Jesus Christ, who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, and which Christians demonstrate daily for the benefit of the unbelievers, neither deceiving them nor taking any financial reward from them [on account of such miraculous ministry]. For as Christians have received freely from God, freely also do they minister [to others]” Matt. 10:8  (Against Heresies, Book 2, Chapter 32, Section 4)

Preacher: Jeremiah Fyffe Romans 5:12-17 Romans 5:12-17 | The Reign of Death from CrossPointe Coast on Vimeo. DEATH REIGNED THE HEADSHIP OF ADAM SIN AND DEATH ENTERED BY ONE TRESPASS SIN AND DEATH ARE UNIVERSAL SIN AND DEATH ARE TOTAL 1 Corinthians 15:22 (ESV) For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. Genesis 2:16–17 (ESV) And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.” Genesis 3:19 (ESV) By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” Romans 2:1 (ESV) Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. Romans 2:12 (ESV) For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. Augustine Nothing is better known than original sin for preaching; for understanding, nothing is more mysterious. Pascal It is astonishing, however, that the mystery furthest from our understanding is the transmission of sin, the one thing without which we can have no understanding of ourselves! Because there can be no doubt that nothing shocks our reason more than to say that the sin of the first man made guilty those who, so far from that source, seem incapable of having taken part in it.… Nevertheless without this most incomprehensible of all mysteries we are incomprehensible to ourselves. Within this gnarled chasm lie the twists and turns of our condition. So, humanity is more inconceivable without this mystery than this mystery is conceivable to humanity. 1689 London Baptist Confession 6:2 — By this sin our first parents fell from their original righteousness and communion with God. We fell in them, and through this, death came upon all. All became dead in sin and completely defiled in all the capabilities and parts of soul and body. 6:3 — By God's appointment, they were the root and the representatives of the whole human race. Because of this, the guilt of their sin was accounted, and their corrupt nature passed on, to all their offspring who descended from them by ordinary procreation. Their descendants are now conceived in sin and are by nature children of wrath, the servants of sin, and partakers of death9 and all other miseries—spiritual, temporal, and eternal—unless the Lord Jesus sets them free. 1689 London Baptist Confession 6:1 — God created humanity upright and perfect. He gave them a righteous law that would have led to life if they had kept it but threatened death if they broke it. Yet they did not remain for long in this position of honor. James 4:1–2 (ESV) What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. Luke 1:35 (ESV) And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy—the Son of God.”

These three sisters lived in Aquilea. When the Emperor Diocletian was visiting there, he learned that they were Christians and had them brought to him. When they would not deny Christ, they were cast into prison, then handed over to a general named Dulcitius for torture. Dulcitius conceived a passion for the sisters, and entered the prison planning to defile them; but when he tried to enter, he was deprived of his reason and fell upon the dirty pots at the entrance, embracing and kissing them until he was completely black with soot. Hearing of this, the Emperor appointed another general to torment the sisters. After terrible tortures Agape and Chionia were burned, but the sadistic general, knowing her pledge of virginity to the Lord, ordered Irene to be put in a brothel. By God's providence she was shot with an arrow before she could be forced to endure this fate.   So ends the version given in the Great Horologion. The Prologue gives a slightly different version: When Irene was being led to the brothel, an angel turned the soldiers back and led Irene to the top of a high hill. The next day the general came with his soldiers to capture her, but were unable to climb it. The general then ordered that Irene be shot with arrows.   St Anastasia, a prophetess in that town, gathered the bodies of all three sisters and gave them burial.

He is also called 'Mark the Athenian' because he was born in Athens. When his parents died, he pondered the transience of all earthly things, gave his goods to the poor, and embarked on a plank in the sea, asking God to lead him wherever He desired. By God's providence, Mark was cast up on the shores of Libya, where he settled as a hermit on a mountain called Trache. (Some say it was in Ethiopia, but this seems less likely.) There he lived for ninety-five years, never seeing another human being.   Saint Serapion visited him before his death and recorded his life. Serapion asked Mark if there were any Christians whose faith was so great that they could say to a mountain 'Get up and cast yourself into the sea,' and it would be so. Immediately the mountain on which they stood began to move like a wave, but Mark raised his hand and stilled it.   On his deathbed, St Mark prayed for the salvation of all men and gave up his soul to God. Saint Serapion saw an angel carrying Mark's soul, and a hand extended from heaven to receive it. Saint Mark was about 130 years old when he reposed.

Questions answered this episode: Dear Christopher and Wendy, thank you for all you do. For context, my husband and I are expecting a baby again for the third time in less than three years, despite our best efforts to practice NFP. I am exhausted and facing potentially serious health concerns. My parents have never understood our stance against contraception, despite being Catholic themselves, and have always tried to persuade us to use it. Things came to a nasty head recently when we announced our latest pregnancy, and we had a major fight. My father says Catholics are not bound by the teachings of Humanae Vitae and are thus free to practice contraception because it is not, quote, ex cathedra doctrine. How do I respond to this? My dad said some very hurtful things about my husband and me. I don't know what to do. I held my ground during the argument, but now I'm starting to doubt myself. Please help. I'm a 20-year-old college student who truly started choosing Christ in my first year of college. In high school, I was in sinful relationships, but when attending a Catholic college, I wanted to stop that. Everything changed when I met a girl who inspired me to pursue sainthood, and I knew I needed to grow in virtue to date her. After seven months of waiting and growing, we began a Christ-centered relationship. But it ended after a month and a half when she chose to discern religious life. Two years later, I still struggle to move on. I've mistakenly entered other relationships hoping to forget her but constantly find myself thinking of her and comparing potential partners and even friends to her. Deep down, I don't want to let her go and feel drawn to reach out, remembering the Christ-filled joy our relationship brought to both of us. My question is, should I let go or should I pursue this relationship? I've been married for 21 years. On our honeymoon, my husband suffered an injury that made sexual intercourse extremely difficult and eventually impossible for him. We have seen doctors for treatments that were unsuccessful and very embarrassing for my husband. In time, we realized it was not going to get better, and it hasn't. By God's grace, we were able to have one child, but marital relations between us have not been possible for over 17 years. My heart aches and longs for this affection from my husband, but I long ago accepted the fact that our marriage is celibate and always will be. In the early days, we fought about this all the time, mostly because he avoided physical contact with me so as not to arouse himself, and I felt very rejected. He's never really liked to talk about this as he finds it very difficult to share his emotions. I used to pressure him to talk, but I've learned that that just isn't his way. I've also learned to see the many other ways that my husband loves me through his acts of service and dedication to our family. He is a wonderful husband, and we love each other deeply. Our strongest connection is our Catholic faith. I experienced a very deep conversion back to my Catholic faith a few years after our marriage, and this has helped me to mature and grow a deep intimacy with God. Even though I have that intimacy with God, I still at times feel so very alone with this cross and have spent most of my marriage feeling as though my husband doesn't desire me, as if he doesn't miss the intimacy because he won't share his pain with me. I have recently begun reading a book, The Cantata of Love, a commentary on the Song of Songs. The imagery in the poem is so beautiful, and it has reawakened in me again the feelings of how much I miss my husband. This part of me I mostly shut down because it's too painful to keep revisiting those unmet desires. It feels a bit like, why torture yourself by reading this? At the same time, I realized that the poem is also an allegory of the love between the bridegroom and the bride, Jesus and my soul. I wonder if you have any experience with people in similar situations and what has helped them. Ask Christopher West is a weekly podcast in which Theology of the Body Institute President Christopher West and his beloved wife Wendy share their humor and wisdom, answering questions about marriage, relationships, life, and the Catholic faith, all in light of John Paul II's beautiful teachings on the Theology of the Body.

Chrysanthos was the only son of Polemon, a prominent pagan in Rome. As befit his status, he was given every opportunity for secular learning, but seemed unable to acquire worldly wisdom. By God's providence, copies of the Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles came into his possession and, reading them avidly, he was enlightened and desired above all to be a Christian. He found a priest, Carpophorus, who instructed him in the Faith and baptised him. When his father discovered Chrysanthos' conversion, he was angry and did everything he could to turn his son back to paganism, using even threats and imprisonment. When none of these measures worked, Polemon arranged for his son to be married to a beautiful and learned young pagan woman named Daria, hoping that affection for her would draw his son away from Christ. But instead, Chrysanthus persuaded Daria of the truth of Christianity, and she was secretly baptised.   When his father died, Chrysanthus and his wife began to confess Christ openly and to live publicly as Christians. They were soon arrested and grievously tortured for their faith. The torturer, whose name was Claudius, was so moved by their endurance and patience that he himself embraced the Faith, along with his whole household. For this they were executed: Claudius by drowning, his two sons by beheading, and his wife by hanging. Finally Chrysanthus and Daria were buried alive in a pit and covered with stones. This was during the reign of the Emperor Numerian.

Known for his wisdom and virtue, he was chosen as Bishop of Cyrenia on the island of Cyprus. When a persecution broke out against the Christians under the Emperor Licinius, Theodotus was arrested and subjected to many tortures. His torturer Sabinus urged him repeatedly to renounce Christ and worship the idols, but Theodotus replied, 'If you knew the goodness of my God, who, it is my hope, will by these brief tortures make me worthy of eternal life, you would wish to suffer for Him as I do.' The pagans then drove nails into his body, for which he thanked God. Believing that his death was approaching, he calmly gave counsel and instruction to the Christians around him. By God's providence, an order came from the new Emperor Constantine to free all Christians who were being held for the sake of Christ. Thus Theodotus was freed and, though greatly weakened by his torments, served his flock faithfully for two more years before reposing in peace.

Luke 11:1-4 - "The Effectual Fervent Prayer..."

James 5:16-18Confess your faults one to another, and pray one foranother, that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteousman avails much. Elijah was a man subject to like passions as we are, and heprayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by thespace of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gaverain, and the earth brought forth her fruit. In Luke 11:1-13, the Lord is teaching His disciples topray. Over the past few days, we have been talking about the importance of prayerin our lives, and for the world around us! If there is anything we need tolearn to do, it is to pray. We go to school for twelve years to get aneducation so we can get out and get a job to make money. We might go for four ormore years so we can make more money. We might go to Bible College to learn howto preach and teach the Bible, learn to be a pastor or church leader, and thatis all well and fine. But we rarely take classes or spend the time to learn howto pray.  We must realize by now that an education, job skills, moneyand a good economy, is not what it going to take to save your marriage, to bringyour children back to God, to heal your broken heart, to give you mental,emotional, and spiritual peace. They will not save our country either. I know Isound like a broken record, but the answer to the divisions, the economy, the socialand cultural issues in America, are not going to be found in the White House,the Congress, the State Legislators, but in our own houses where righteous believersknow how to pray “effectual fervent” prayers.  When I think of prayer, I can't help but think of James 5and the prayer of Elijah. He was a man just like us; “subject to likepassions”. He had the same type of problems, challenges, emotions, andissues. His country Israel was in a mess under the heathen pagan leadership ofAhab and Jezebel. The whole nation was following the religion of Baal worship.Today, for the most part, America is following the religion of humanism. Theworship of self! We live to please ourselves. That's humanism! The last verse in Judges 21:25 says, “Everyone is doingwhat is right in their own eyes”. The land was filled with chaos,confusion, anarchy, and violence. What is the answer. Like Elijah, we can getright with God and pray! The promise of 2 Chronicles 7:14-15 is still in theBible and available for us today! “If My people who are called by My namewill humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wickedways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal theirland. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in thisplace.” The Lord's model prayer reminds us of our need for ourFather's presence in our lives and families. Of the need of ourFather'sguidance in joining Him in His kingdom work so His will is done on earth asit is in heaven. Of the need of our Father's provision every day both physicallyand spiritually. And of our daily need for our Father's pardon for oursins. In order for us to pray effectual fervent prayers thatavail much, we must have pure hearts and clean hands (James 4:7-10). As wesubmit our lives to the Lord, the devil must flee. As we confess our sins, ourhearts are purified. As we join the Father in His kingdom work, our hands arecleansed.  Amazing and wonderful, miraculous things can happen when wereally learn to pray! In my Bible, Jeremiah 33:3 still says: 'Call to Me,and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do notknow.' And we can never forget the promise of Ephesians 3:20: “Now toHim who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think,according to the power that works in us”. By God's grace we should seek to learn to pray “effectualfervent prayers that avail much”! God bless!

Jesus Followers Know the Cornerstone of Christianity Is: “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” MESSAGE SUMMARY: Jesus is The Door and The Gate by which you must enter the Kingdom of God. In John 14:6-7, Jesus answers a question by the Apostle Thomas with the fundamental tenant of Christianity when He tells us all: “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.'". Also, in John 10:9-10, Jesus tells us: “I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief {Satan} comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." Also, Jesus said, in Matthew 7:13-14, that He was "the Narrow Gate", and whomever enters the Kingdom through Him will be saved and have Eternal Life: {You} “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.". Jesus' Crucifixion and Resurrection are the events, of about two thousand years ago, that provided us all, by God's Grace, with access to The Narrow Gate, which is Jesus. Through Jesus' death on the cross for your sins and His Resurrection, He has given you eternal life, if you choose to enter The Narrow Gate. You may ask: “How do I enter this ‘Narrow Gate' of Jesus?”. By God's Grace you can enter Eternal Life, through Jesus, by your true belief and faith in Jesus as God along with your prayerful confession of your sins to God. With your belief, faith, and confession, you have entered through the narrow and only door to your Salvation. However and after your entry through the door, you must continue, in your faith and obedience, to follow Jesus – this is the only, and it is The Way provided by God's Grace through Jesus.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, help me to grab hold of you today. I need you. Set me free to begin reorienting my life around you, and you alone. Help me to pay attention to and honor how you have uniquely made me. Thank you for the gift of rest. In Jesus' name, amen.       Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 122). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that, because I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be ashamed of the Gospel. I will not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes (including me).

In this text, Paul makes clear that his worldview has been re-shaped by God's work of “new creation.” By God's work of reconciliation, a new creation transformation takes place in the life of the believer, including how he or she evaluates the world and everything in it. In this passage we see three aspects of new creation living: 1. New Creation Transformation (5:16–17) 2. New Creation Reconciliation (5:18–21) 3. New Creation Proclamation (6:1–2)

As we are in the Octave of Epiphany, we remember that Epiphany means the revelation or manifestation of God to man; in this case through the Christ child. St. Paul teaches something profound in Ephesians 3 when he says that the manifold wisdom of God is now made known through the Church. By God's wisdom, from Pentecost to the end of this age, we are the continuing Epiphany of God to this world and to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places. What an incredible thought. So how shall we live in order that God's will be done through us. We present ourselves to God and we offer ourselves to God. There we see Him and know Him and are transformed into His likeness for the world to see.

Today Daily Devotional

There will be no more night. — Revelation 22:5 Throughout the Bible, God uses the metaphors of light and darkness and of day and night to highlight a constant tension. Will God's light flourish and fill creation, or will God's creation fall back into the original darkness, the formlessness and emptiness in which God started to create? We feel that tension every time we hear about another war, natural disaster, or corrupt leader. The tension comes home when we don't have enough money to make ends meet, when our relationships break, and when we receive news that the battle for life and death is in our own bodies. We wonder, “Will we ever get out of this mess?” God gently reassures John and us that our present sufferings will not have the final word. God shows John that through Jesus a day is coming when all of life will flourish beyond John's wildest imaginings. Fruit trees whose very leaves bring healing to all the peoples of the world will flourish in the heart of God's new creation, bearing new crops every month! God also reveals that “there will be no more night” in this new creation. The threat of darkness and all that it symbolizes throughout the Bible will be removed. By God's lavish grace, evil will no longer distort or diminish life anywhere within God's new creation. Even now, God is at work making everything new! Hallelujah! Lord God, equip us to live confidently, even boldly in expectation of your new creation. Please bring this day about soon, we pray. Come, Lord Jesus!

The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph - The Family as a Communion of Love

Catholic Daily Reflections

Read OnlineWhen they had fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon him.  Luke 2:39–40 Today we honor family life in general by pausing to ponder the particular and beautiful hidden life within the home of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. In many ways, their daily life together would have been very similar to other families at that time. But in other ways, their life together is entirely unique and provides us with a perfect model for all families.By God's providence and design, the family life of Jesus, Mary and Joseph was spoken of in the Scripture very little. We read of the birth of Jesus, the presentation in the Temple, the flight into Egypt and the finding of Jesus in the Temple at age twelve. But other than these stories of their life together, we know very little.The line from today's Gospel quoted above does, however, give us some insight worth pondering. First, we see that this family “fulfilled all the prescriptions of the law of the Lord…” Though this is in reference to Jesus being presented in the Temple, it should also be understood to apply to all aspects of their life together. Family life, just like our individual lives, must be ordered by the laws of our Lord.The primary law of the Lord regarding family life is that it must share in the very unity and “communion of love” found in the life of the Most Holy Trinity. Each person of the Holy Trinity has perfect respect for the other, gives selflessly to each other without reserve, and receives each person in their totality. It is their love that makes them one and enables them to act together in perfect harmony as a communion of divine Persons. Though Saint Joseph was not immaculate in his nature, the perfection of love did live in his divine Son and in his immaculate wife. This overwhelming gift of their perfect love would have daily drawn him into the perfection of their lives.Ponder your own closest relationships today. If you are blessed with a close family, ponder them. If not, ponder the persons put into your life who you are called to love with familial love. Who are you to be there for in good times and in bad? Who are you to sacrifice your life for without reserve? Who are you to offer respect, compassion, time, energy, mercy, generosity and every other virtue? And how well do you fulfill this duty of love? Reflect, today, upon the fact that God wants you to share in a communion of life, not only with the Most Holy Trinity but also with those around you, especially your family. Try to ponder the hidden life of Jesus, Mary and Joseph and seek to make their family relationship the model for how you love others. May their perfect communion of love be a model for us all. Lord, draw me into the life, love and communion that You lived with Your Immaculate Mother and Saint Joseph. I offer You myself, my family and all those to whom I am called to love with a special love. May I imitate Your family love and life in all my relationships. Help me to know how to change and grow so that I may more fully share in Your family life. Jesus, I trust in You.  Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2024 My Catholic Life!

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” — John 8:12 The text in our reading for today is centrally focused on Jesus' identity. He declares, “I am the light of the world . . .” leaning into God's covenant name “I am who I am” (Exodus 3:14). Jesus is making the claim that he is God, because that's who he is. But there are also implications here for all who follow him. Jesus asserts that anyone who follows him “will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” When we're honest with ourselves, we admit there are many times when we stumble in our faith. Sometimes we make deliberate choices to sin. At other times we fail to do the good that we could have done. At times, we still choose darkness. So, what do we do with Jesus' words that his followers “will never walk in darkness”? Until this point, the Israelites were taught to follow God's commands and to offer certain sacrifices in order to be right with God. But now Jesus reorients their righteousness to himself. The good news Jesus proclaims is that instead of trying (and always failing) to be righteous before God, people can receive the light of Jesus' perfect life that he extends to us (2 Corinthians 5:21). By God's grace, all who follow Jesus have the light of life not because of what they do, but because of who Jesus is and what Jesus has done. Hallelujah! Thank you, Jesus, for your faithfulness and your sacrifice on our behalf. We praise you that the light of your life makes us right with God! Amen.

[SEGMENT 2-1] Syria 1   The 2024 election was rigged. By God. And those Godless Democrats had no chance. After stealing the 2020 election, Democrats thought their trip would be smooth sailing. And while Republicans were devastated by the loss, we never lost faith. We knew that Democrats would over-reach, complete full of themselves. Imagine the delusion of a mandate, after you've cheated so brazenly that even your own people blushed when confronted with the truth. Republicans felt defeated, but we stayed the course. And with each passing day, Democrats set the next phase of destiny in place. Lies and coverups galore, they continued down their dark path.   "The Collapse of Syria: Another Regime Change Catastrophe Courtesy of Leftist Policy" Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the show—your front-row seat to the spectacle of leftist incompetence on the world stage. If you're looking for a good laugh that keeps you from crying, pull up a chair because Syria's collapse reads like a tragic comedy with a script penned by the usual suspects—Obama-era foreign policy geniuses and their meddling ilk. Let's dissect this mess together. A Hemingway-Esque Tragedy: Slowly, Then All at Once Hemingway once said, “How did you go bankrupt? Gradually, then suddenly.” The same could be said of Bashar al-Assad's regime. For years, the Syrian dictator ruled with an iron fist, supported by Russia and Iran. But cracks in the armor began to form in 2022 when Russia decided it had a new playground in Ukraine, and Iran got hit where it hurts by Israeli strikes targeting Hezbollah. When your backup singers walk off the stage, even the best frontman starts to falter. Fast forward to November 29: Aleppo fell, Assad's defenders stopped defending, and suddenly the guy who spent years painting himself as untouchable disappeared like a magician's assistant. Statues toppled, selfies flooded the dictator's palace, and the world collectively shrugged. It was like watching a rerun of every regime change debacle since the Cold War, with the same disastrous ending. Regime Change Roulette: America's Favorite Game Let's not act like this is a new plot twist. The U.S. has been dabbling in regime changes like it's our national pastime. Libya? We turned Gaddafi into a viral meme before brutally removing him from the stage. Egypt? We helped shuffle out one dictator only to end up with another. Haiti? A revolving door of leaders, none of whom seem to stick. Every time we play this game, the house—by which I mean the American taxpayer—loses big.  [SEGMENT 2-2] Syria 2   [X] SB – Jeffrey Sach on Morning Joe explaining how Obama created Syria problem Could escalate. US mistake that started 7 years ago with Obama. Assad must go. Brought in ISIS and Russia. Dig in deeper and deeper   Leftist foreign policies always come wrapped in the shiny packaging of “freedom” and “democracy,” but what do we really deliver? Chaos, power vacuums, and, inevitably, extremists stepping into the void. Syria's just the latest contestant in this twisted game show. Syria's Long Fall From Grace Syria wasn't always a headline for despair. It's a country with a rich history, stunning architecture, and some of the best food you'll ever taste. It could've been the Dubai of the Levant. Instead, thanks to decades of conflict and meddling, it's become a cautionary tale. While the world watched the fall of Aleppo and Damascus, one can't help but wonder—what could Syria have been if left alone? Obama's “red line” in 2013—remember that empty threat?—didn't just embolden Assad; it broadcasted to the world that American foreign policy under leftist leadership was all bark and no bite. It was the geopolitical equivalent of promising to ground your kid for breaking curfew, then letting them host a house party. The Left's Greatest Hits of Hypocrisy The left has a talent for blaming others while creating the very disasters they decry. Obama's foreign policy team, with their Ivy League degrees and zero street smarts, decided that Syria was a project worth meddling in. First, they funneled weapons into the region, most of which ended up in the hands of—wait for it—extremists. Then, they ignored the collateral damage, including millions of displaced Syrians now scattered across the globe. And while Obama was playing chess (or maybe checkers, let's be honest) in the Middle East, the American media was busy applauding him for doing… what, exactly? Turning a bad situation into a worse one? Meanwhile, Trump got crucified for keeping America first, focusing on domestic stability, and managing not to start another war.  [SEGMENT 2-3] Syria 3   A well-organized, highly motivated set of armed opponents took the city of Aleppo on November 29, and many of the regime's defenders abruptly stopped fighting. Assad vanished. The scenes that followed today in Damascus—the toppling of statues, the taking selfies of the dictator's palace—are the same ones that will unfold in Caracas, Tehran, or Moscow on the day the soldiers of those regimes lose their faith in the leadership, and the public loses their fear of those soldiers too.   What do you know about Syria? I'd be willing to be that most Americans couldn't point the country out on a map if you gave them 5 tries. The truth is we know what we've heard. Most of us never dig any further than the soundbite we hear in the mainstream media. We're too busy, for the most part. And frankly, we really can't be too concerned with happenings around the world when so much is happening in our backyards. For those of us will to dig a layer or two deeper, certainly, social media and the rise of Conservative media has helped us gain reach new strata of understanding about other countries. But for the most part, we remain ignorant of most of the world, a specifically in this case Syria. Sadly, what I just said of Syria is true about most subjects. We get our information in soundbites, and rarely dig deeper. And while Conservatives tend to be better than Leftists, we still fail in most part to understand things at more than a superficial level, particularly when it comes to other countries. We've been conditioned to think, “Our government knows best”, when it comes to geopolitical matters. We believe that our government acts in the best interests of America, period, full stop. This attitude was born of the idea that our government acts in good faith. Always. That's what we all want to believe about our country. We generally don't even question that notion. However, when you consider how our government treats its own citizens, perhaps we should take pause. Take the example of illegals who were allowed to invade America by Obama and Biden. Look at how Leftists treat illegals in America versus citizens of our country. Illegals are gifted with 5-star accommodations in some instances, thousands of dollars in food subsidies, and access to all services of citizens without paying a dime. How could one possibly rationalize what's happening with illegals over citizens using any sanity. So if Leftists are willing to flood America with illegals for power, what would make you think their intentions are good anywhere else in the world? At this point, you either agree with me or you're an idiot. I used to believe in the sanctity of our government. Even when we screwed up, I felt that while things might have gone awry, it was for, you ready…the greater good. After all, American stands up for countries all over the world. We fight for them, we send funds when they are in dire straits, and so on. I'm convinced that the American citizen is the best citizen of the world. But our government, when run by Leftists may very well be evil incarnate. I look back on regime changes around the world, and I feel very confident that our CIA is involved in most of them. The organization will use boogeymen like Russia and China to justify what it does. However, those are just strawmen. Because the CIA knows that America is in the business of war.  [SEGMENT 2-4] Syria 4   When I was younger, I didn't mind war. Looking back I know that I was groomed for war, conditioned for it. As a poor child growing up in the inner city, I was accustomed to war at the micro level. The “mean streets” is where I grew up. I grew up mean. Angry. Ready for war. I knew of the Vietnam conflict, and watched my uncles return from battle. One of them was broken by that conflict. The more I learned of Vietnam, the clearer that picture became. A useless war. A place for America to flex its military muscle, and try out some strategies for the next generation of arms. The Cold War is another I heard much about. We built a nuclear arsenal that cost billions and will never be used. MIRV missiles from the 50s and 60s are relics, likely being dismantled and sold for scrap. A new generation of nuclear missiles has been built, and like covid vaccines will end up dumped as well. We spend billions preparing for war. And while we have non-proliferation treaties regarding nuclear weapons, we still build them. Iran wants nukes, and we try to stop them. If they get them, what happens? Will they attack Israel, who also has nukes? It would be both countries' last move most likely. I'm not going to pretend to have all the answers. At best, I'm two layers out of ten deep on my geopolitical knowledge. But I have seen a pattern.

It didn't take long. When Shino and Shania began showing their faces in their Somali-language Christian videos on the internet and using their real names, the response was immediate. Their videos were shown all over the world, and the persecuted Christian couple were called apostates and enemies of Islam. Their lives were repeatedly threatened. Since they went public about their faith in 2016, Shino and Shania have had to move from house to house and country to country. Threats are constant, but God's protection has been constant as well. By God's grace, they are still broadcasting and sharing their faith with Somalis. “Look around.” Shania sensed God telling her early on in their ministry, “I am building my church among the Somalis. No one can stop it, and now is the time.” Today, thousands of Somali people know their number and follow them on social media at Somali Christian TV. Last week, Shania shared how the Lord drew her to himself and about the four years she prayed for her Muslim husband, who eventually came to Christ as well. This week the couple shares how their online ministry encourages Somalis all over the world, especially in Somalia where Christians are isolated due to Christian persecution, lack of churches and the difficulty of getting Bibles.   Listen as Shino & Shania share feedback from former Muslims who used to hate and threaten them. They will also share how they continue to train new leaders and prepare others for persecution when it comes. Pray for the nation of Somalia this week and for Shino and Shania's continued ministry.

Julie and Liz kayaked off the coast of California, scouting for humpback whales. Humpbacks are known for being active near the surface, making them easy to spot. The two women got the surprise of their lives when one surfaced directly underneath them. An onlooker caught footage of their encounter that showed the large mouth of the whale dwarfing the women and their kayaks. After briefly going underwater, the women escaped unharmed. Their experience offers perspective on the biblical account of the prophet Jonah being swallowed by a “huge fish” (Jonah 1:17). God had instructed him to preach to the Ninevites but because they’d rejected God, Jonah didn’t feel they were worthy of His forgiveness. Instead of obeying, he ran away in the opposite direction and took passage on a ship. God sent a dangerous storm, and he was thrown overboard. God provided a way to preserve Jonah from certain death on the high seas, sparing him the far-worse consequences of his actions (though three days in the belly of a massive fish doesn’t appeal much either). Jonah “called to the Lord” and God listened (2:2). After Jonah admitted his wrongdoing and expressed his praise and acknowledgment of God’s goodness, he was—at His command—expelled from the fish “onto dry land” (v. 10). By God’s grace, when we acknowledge our wrongdoings and express faith in Jesus’ sacrifice, we’re spared the spiritual death we deserve and experience new life through Him.

For most of us, the idea of spiritual disciplines isn't new: we know as moms pursuing Christ, it's important to be in God's Word, pray, and enjoy godly community. But… we also know it's easier said than done. How do we find time between packing lunches and keeping everyone's schedules straight to pursue spiritual habits and disciplines? In this episode, Emily and Laura give us a fresh take on what it means to evaluate our individual needs as moms, and how this frees us to look at spiritual growth differently than many of us have before. By God's grace, these practices will become less of a checkbox and more of a can't-miss as we move forward in faith. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.

The final prophecy against a particular nation is a doozy, proclaiming total annihilation and ruin and spanning two long chapters, one of which is the fifth longest chapter in Scripture. Who could this prophecy be against? What nation's actions would merit such a rebuke? If you guessed Babylon, you are right! Though the Lord allowed Babylon to attack His own people and send them into exile, Babylon is still responsible for their own sin and their own actions. By God's design, his people are punished because of their ongoing sin and rebellion, but Babylon is punished more so because of their idolatry and wickedness.
