Podcasts about choosing life

Pastor Andy brings us a message about “Finding Choices, Choosing Life.” God created us with free will, enabling us to make choices even in the midst of His sovereign intent. We are challenged to recognize how our upbringing, desires, and broken decision-making processes can hinder us, but God still works through all things for good. Rather than avoiding choice or falling into legalism, we are urged to actively seek God's wisdom and presence to help us make life-giving decisions.

Choosing Life Upon LifeIsaiah 35:8-10 And a great road will go through that once deserted land. It will be named the Highway of Holiness. Evil-minded people will never travel on it. It will be only for those who walk in God's ways; fools will never walk there. Lions will not lurk along its course, nor any other ferocious beasts. There will be no other dangers.  Only the redeemed will walk on it. Those who have been ransomed by the Lord will return. They will enter Jerusalem singing, crowned with everlasting joy. Sorrow and mourning will disappear,  and they will be filled with joy and gladness.Speaker: Pastor Alyssa Bolella

The two thieves, sentenced to death on the cross, joined the crowd in mocking Jesus even though they were guilty of their crimes. This displays the depths of human depravity as they rail against the very Savior they were in proximity to.One thief, however, experiences a significant change of heart amidst despair, while the other remains unrepentant, illustrating stark contrasts in choices.

Nir Salomon, executive director of an Israeli pro-life organization Efrat, shares how his organization supports Israeli mothers in choosing life, even amidst the challenges of war.

Nathan grew up in a Christ-believing household, but he started to stray from his childhood faith as a college student. Away from the familiarities of home, he was drawn into things like drinking and partying by his new friends. “Long story short, God brought me back to Himself when I didn’t deserve it,” he said. In time, Nathan spent a summer sharing Jesus with strangers on the streets of major U.S. cities, and is now completing a residency in youth ministry at his church. Barely out of college himself, Nathan’s goal is to help young people avoid wasting time not living for Jesus. Like Nathan, the Israelite leader Moses had a heart for the next generation. Knowing he would soon relinquish leadership, Moses delivered God’s good regulations to the people and then the list of consequences: blessing and life for obedience, cursing and death for disobedience. “Now choose life, so that you and your children may live,” Moses told them, “for the Lord is your life” (Deuteronomy 30:19-20). Moses urged them to love God, listen to His voice, and hold fast to Him (v. 20). When we choose sin, there are consequences. But when we surrender our lives to God again, He will surely have mercy (vv. 2-3) and restore us (v. 4). This promise was fulfilled throughout the Jewish peoples’ history, but also by Jesus’ final work on the cross to bring us into fellowship with God. We too have a choice today and are free to choose life.

As I sat across from Blue Andrews, his story of transformation gripped me—a tale that not only speaks to the heart of every man fighting silent battles but also echoes the triumph of the human spirit. Blue shares an intimate account of his journey, from the clutches of alcoholism and the shadows of depression to the heights of wellness and self-awareness. It's a deep dive into the layers of modern masculinity, the silent struggles with loneliness, unworthiness, and the beauty of vulnerability. His story is a beacon, guiding us through the dark and into a life brimming with purpose and meaning.In the tapestry of today's fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the simpler things in life. Yet, as Blue and I explore the emotional landscape of men's lives, we uncover the profound growth that can occur when one learns to cherish the present moment. We talk about the fine line between learning from past mistakes and being consumed by them, and I open up about the heartfelt stories shared in my book "Choosing Life." Through candid conversations and the establishment of safe spaces, we illuminate the concept that sharing our own vulnerabilities not only fosters personal healing but can also fortify the bonds between men.As we wrap up, we delve into the strength that our beliefs and values provide, especially during life's upheavals. The episode touches on the painful yet rewarding battle against addictions, the significance of possessing a resolute "why" in our life's narrative, and the anchoring power of personal creeds. We traverse from self-discovery to the sharing of vulnerabilities and ultimately, the journey towards self-discovery and wellness. This episode stands as an impassioned plea for men to lead by example, to celebrate life in all its facets, and to nurture a positive outlook, regardless of the trials faced in the past.Key moments in this episode:12:11 Men's Emotional Growth Journey 17:56 Overcoming Male Communication Barriers 21:36 The Power of Personal Beliefs 31:33 Journey to Self-Discovery and Wellness 41:50 Journey Through Depression and Recovery 54:31 Men's Mental Health and Sharing StoriesSupport the showThanks for listening to the Revolutionary Man Podcast.

Mary Higgins' life took an unforeseen turn when she became the victim of rape at 18. Amidst the trauma and societal pressures, she made a decision that not only shaped her future but also illuminated a path of love, sacrifice, and redemption. Choosing Life in the Darkest Hour Mary's ordeal begins with an act of violence that left her pregnant and alone. Yet, instead of succumbing to despair or societal expectations to "take care of it" through abortion, Mary embraced the inherent dignity of the life within her. Inspired by her faith and the unwavering belief in the sanctity of life from conception, she chose to carry her child to term and place her daughter for adoption. A Testament to Sacrificial Love She speaks candidly about the difficulty of parting with her child but also shares the immense joy and unforeseen blessings that decision brought into her life. Now reunited with her daughter, Mary marvels at the beauty of their relationship and the gift of two grandchildren, a testament to the enduring legacy of her bravery. Dispelling Myths with Truth Drew Mariani and Mary confront the myths propagated by the culture of death, particularly the notion that abortion is a necessary solution for women who conceive through rape. Mary's experience shreds apart these arguments, proving that life, even when conceived in the most tragic circumstances, has the potential for incredible joy and purpose. A Call to Support Life If you or someone you know are in a similar situation, there is hope. Mary encourages you to choose life, promising that while the journey may be fraught with challenges, the outcome is immeasurably rewarding. There are people who are ready to help you in any way you need.  A Radiant Example of Faith and Fortitude Mary's journey from victim to victor, from suffering to sanctity, serves as a powerful witness to the love and mercy of God, who brings good out of every situation. In a world often clouded by despair, Mary's story is a vivid reminder that every life is a gift, every child a blessing, and every choice for life a step towards healing and holiness.

Today we're joined by Daniel and Kelly Crawford of Abel Speaks, an organization that supports families who have chosen to carry a child with a life-limiting diagnosis. They share their own story of finding out their baby son Abel had trisomy 18 and how doctors were quick to suggest abortion, deeming their son incompatible with life. We discuss how they processed the news and how important community grounded in compassion and truth was for them during this time. Kelly explains the birth experience and how much time they were given with baby Abel beyond what they were told to expect. We also discuss their motivation to help other families in similar situations and what the gaps in support are for families of children with life-limiting diagnoses. --- Timecodes: (01:16) Abel's story (06:08) What is Trisomy 18?
