Podcasts about Chosen

The shepherds were ordinary people, faithfully tending their flocks, when God interrupted their routine with extraordinary news. Chosen to witness the birth of the Savior, these humble outcasts responded with immediate obedience, awe, and heartfelt praise. Luke’s Gospel reminds us that God meets us exactly where we are—not where we think we should be. True worship isn’t limited to church services or special moments; it flows from obedience, attentiveness, and living each moment for God’s glory. Like the shepherds, we are invited to respond to Jesus with joyful praise and to glorify God in the everyday rhythms of life. Main Takeaways You’ll learn why God often meets us in ordinary moments, just as He did with the shepherds. Discover how obedience to God naturally leads to joy and worship. Understand that worship extends beyond singing—it includes everyday acts done for God’s glory. Be encouraged that God can use you right where you are, regardless of your circumstances. Reflect on how living with eternity in mind shapes a life of praise and purpose.

May our lives reflect worship in spirit and in truth, and may we boldly share the good news of Jesus, just as the shepherds did.Amen. Want More?

In this special pre-Christmas episode, Kevin sits down with Captain Jon Engle of the Colton Fire Department.

De eerste van twee afleveringen waarin de vragen van luisteraars centraal staan. Zoals: heeft Lukas een fout gemaakt in het kerstverhaal dat hij optekent in zijn evangelie? Hoe kijken de theologen aan tegen het 'hot topic' van de alverzoening – het idee dat uiteindelijk iedereen wordt gered? Belooft de Bijbel dat je nooit zwaarder lijden te dragen krijgt dan je aankunt? Wat vinden jullie van de hitserie The Chosen? En… wat zegt de Bijbel eigenlijk over gourmetten?

St. Paul thanks God that the Thessalonians are not among those deceived by the devil. God has made them brothers in the Church by choosing them from the beginning for salvation. This has happened through the work of the Spirit in the means of grace. The apostle thus urges the Thessalonians to stand firm in this tradition. Paul prays in confidence that God will comfort and establish the Thessalonians in His grace for every good work and word.  Rev. James Preus, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Ottumwa, IA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17.  To learn more about Trinity in Ottumwa, visit trinitylutheranottumwa.com. “Yearning for the Day of Christ's Returning” is a mini-series on Sharper Iron that studies St. Paul's two epistles to the Thessalonians. Although Paul's time in Thessalonica was brief, he had great affection for the Christians there. His two letters to the Thessalonians show us the joy that God gives us together in the Church and encourage us to live faithfully in expectation of Jesus' coming on the Last Day.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

El regreso de María Magdalena marca un momento profundamente humano y restaurador. Después de su caída, Jesús no la recibe con reproches, sino con misericordia, recordándonos que su gracia no se pierde cuando fallamos, y que siempre hay un camino de regreso.Al mismo tiempo, Jesús confronta una religiosidad que ha olvidado el corazón de la Ley. La sanación del hombre de la mano seca y la defensa de sus discípulos, que comen en sábado para saciar su hambre, revelan una verdad poderosa: el sábado fue hecho para bendecir y restaurar, no para oprimir.Este capítulo nos enfrenta a una pregunta crucial: ¿seguimos a Jesús desde la compasión y la gracia, o desde reglas que han perdido el amor? Jesús deja claro que Él es Señor del sábado y que la verdadera obediencia siempre se expresa en misericordia, vida y restauración.Link del episodio: https://watch.thechosen.tv/video/184683594358

Some women are celebrated loudly. Others are essential quietly.This episode is for the Foundational Friend — the woman who's always there. The emotional anchor. The fixer. The calm during storms — yet somehow still feels overlooked when life gets light and celebratory.We unpack women's friendships, emotional labor, and the difference between real connection and emotional utility. Why do some people only reach out during breakups, career changes, or hard seasons? Why does being the “strong friend” often mean being needed more than chosen?If you've ever felt left out of plans, unseen in friendships, or like you're always the one holding it together, this episode dives into how to cope without tying it to your self-worth. We talk boundaries, emotional maturity, and how to stay in relationship without self-abandoning.FOLLOW LATINALY:⁠LATINALY ON INSTAGRAM⁠⁠LATINALY ON TIKTOK⁠⁠LATINALY ON FACEBOOK⁠Be on the next Signed, Kiah:⁠NGL LINK ⁠OR⁠KIAHBURGOS.COM/ASK⁠⁠LATINALY MERCH⁠ FOLLOW KIAH:⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠INSTAGRAM

Pre-Order my brand new book, RESET: Realign Your Life And Become Magnetic To Your ManifestationsIn this episode of The Manifestation Collective Podcast, I'm reflecting on the Year of the Snake and how its themes of shedding, rebirth, intuition, and quiet transformation showed up in my life in ways I couldn't have predicted at the start of the year.The snake isn't about loud beginnings or instant change. It's about subtle identity shifts, releasing skins that no longer fit, and trusting the slow, powerful process of becoming. And looking back, I can see just how deeply this energy wove itself through my body, my business, my self-concept, and my future vision.In this episode, I share:How the Year of the Snake invited deep shedding rather than dramatic action, and why letting go was more important than strivingThe quiet identity shifts I experienced around self-worth, embodiment, and becoming my Future SelfWhy this year wasn't about hustling forward, but about releasing old skins that no longer aligned with who I was becomingHow intuition, patience, and inner guidance became stronger than external pressure or timelinesThe way this energy influenced my relationship with money, business growth, and energetic minimumsHow slowing down actually created more alignment, clarity, and magnetic momentumWhy the Year of the Snake reminds us that real transformation often happens beneath the surface before it's visible to othersFocus: Year of the Snake meaning, Year of the Snake manifestation, spiritual meaning of the Year of the Snake, Year of the Snake transformation, shedding old identities, spiritual rebirth and renewal, becoming your Future Self, identity shifting manifestation, self-concept transformation, what the Year of the Snake represents spiritually, how the Year of the Snake affects personal growth, letting go and shedding old skins spiritually, quiet transformation and embodiment, intuitive living and manifestation Hosted on Acast.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITStart with a recording hiccup, then buckle up: we charge straight into the fight over who gets to shape language in the classroom. When a major teachers union showcases neopronouns and even conceptual identities, it isn't just a semantic debate—it's a battle over values, authority, and what schools are for. We pull apart why parents feel blindsided, how teachers navigate shifting mandates, and where the line should be between inclusion and instruction. If you've wondered whether public schools are prioritizing literacy or ideology, you'll hear a perspective that doesn't mince words.Then the conversation turns to faith and pop culture, as Jenny McCarthy shares a deepened relationship with Jesus following a tragedy. Celebrity conversions can spark eye rolls, but they also invite honest questions about purpose, pain, and what it means to surrender. We talk about how public figures live out belief under scrutiny, how faith journeys change over time, and why stories of loss and hope still cut through the noise. It's less about agreeing with every stance and more about recognizing the human need for meaning.We keep the cultural lens focused with a surprising media move: Angel Studios, known for The Chosen and Sound of Freedom, steps into an animated Animal Farm with an A-list cast that includes a transgender actor. For some, that's bold expansion. For others, it's a brand break. We unpack the tension between ministry-minded storytelling and mainstream reach, and what faith-based media should look like if it wants to shape the broader conversation instead of preaching only to the choir.To end on a lighter, communal note, we spotlight a brisk 15-minute Capitol holiday party—Mountain Dew, PB&J, and canned cheese—and throw the mic to you. What's the most memorable Christmas party you've ever attended, and what made it unforgettable?

MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass: Living With Divine Purpose In this episode, I want to help you answer one of the most important questions you will ever ask yourself. What am I really here to do? I talk about why fulfillment does not come from money, titles, or achievements alone, and why even success can feel empty if it is not aligned with your calling. I share the truth I have learned from being both broke and wealthy, and why happiness without purpose never lasts. Fulfillment comes when your gifts meet service, when your life is no longer just about you, and when what you do begins to bless others. I break down the biggest myth people believe about purpose, which is that your career must be your calling. For many people, that is simply not true. Sometimes your job is how you fund your mission. Sometimes your calling lives outside your nine to five. Sometimes it starts as a side mission, a side cause, or a quiet contribution no one applauds. I walk you through how to stop putting pressure on your career to be everything, and instead begin building a life that gives you peace, impact, and meaning. I also help you identify your unique gifts, the ones you were born with and the ones you developed through pain, struggle, and experience. We talk about why you are most qualified to help the person you used to be, and how the pain you survived may be pointing directly toward your purpose. I share how to use the people you admire as clues to what already exists inside you, and how your purpose often reveals itself through action, not overthinking. Finally, I challenge you to stop delaying your life. Time is running out faster than you think, and waiting for perfect clarity is one of the most dangerous habits you can have. I explain why fulfillment is found through movement, trying different paths, and being willing to test what feels like home. Key Takeaways Why fulfillment comes from purpose, not money or possessions The difference between passion, calling, and career How your pain may be pointing directly to your purpose Why your gifts are clues to your mission How to identify your calling through the people you admire Why contribution is essential to long term fulfillment How to stop delaying and start living with intention The questions to ask when deciding what to pursue next This episode is an invitation to stop living on someday and start living on purpose. You were not created to simply exist. You were created to contribute.

What should I know about angels? Was the disciple Matthew autistic? My girlfriend's funeral was today, and my pastor said only chosen people go to heaven. This worries me! Can you explain?

In this episode I talk about how a survival-focused brain hands us fast, familiar thoughts that harden into identity, and how a few seconds of awareness can change the narrator of your life.We dig into the mechanics of default thinking, why the mind prefers shortcuts, and how filtering turns first impressions into fixed labels. Then we model practical reframes across marriage, money, career, parenting, faith, and friendships, replacing sweeping labels with precise, empowering truths. From an Islamic lens, we explore nafs, spiritual intention, and the pursuit of Truth, connecting mind management with devotion, balance, and integrity. Expect clear steps you can practice today: pause, notice the first thought, question it, and select the identity you want to strengthen. Neuroplasticity does the rest, rewiring attention and behavior until your inner life, relationships, and work reflect a grounded, self-led you.If this resonates, share the episode with someone who's ready to move from autopilot to intention, subscribe for more practical mind coaching rooted in faith and science, and leave a review to help others find the show.

Storytelling isn't about explaining people, it's about humanizing them so we can finally see each other. In this episode, Peter Fenger sits down with John Morgan, a filmmaker, social worker, and co-founder of Live Your Purpose Media, a storytelling platform rooted in healing, equality, and social justice. With more than a decade of experience in community mental health, including work in Akron's public schools and at the county's first Black-owned, nationally accredited mental health agency, John brings a rare and grounded perspective to the intersection of wellness and creativity. Today, he leads powerful film projects that explore Black maternal health, incarceration, and men's mental health, while also directing Soft Work, a support network creating space for men to embrace vulnerability, emotional honesty, and healing. In this conversation, we explore John's journey from social work to filmmaking and men's mental health advocacy, and how he uses storytelling, community building, and softness as tools for transformation. At the core of John's work is a commitment to helping people live their purpose, and to telling stories that don't just inform, but inspire real change.   For more information about Live Your Purpose (LYP) Media, please visit: https://www.lypmedia.com For more information about Live Your Purpose podcast, please visit: https://www.lypmedia.com/podcast For more information about LYP Media films, please visit: https://www.lypmedia.com/film Contract LYP Media to purchase the film rental at:  info@lypmedia.com.

It's not reproach, it's reinforcement of reality. A chapter-a-day podcast from Deuteronomy 9. The text version may always be found and shared at tomvanderwell.com.

Behind The Chosen: Faith, Film, and the Fight for CultureJoin host John Coleman on the set of The Chosen in Midlothian, Texas, for an unprecedented conversation with producers Chris Juen and Chad Gundersen of Out of Order Studios. From the Sanhedrin throne room itself, Chris and Chad share the untold story of how a crowdfunded Jesus project became a global phenomenon reaching 520 million people—and what it means for faith-driven investors seeking to impact culture through entertainment.Key Investment & Industry Topics:Why entertainment investment requires a platform approach, not one-off project betsHow The Chosen scaled from $0 budget for episode 5 to a multi-season global franchiseThe three investment pillars for cultural impact: spark the next generation, build infrastructure, create contentWhy investors should think like oil drillers: invest in a slate of 10 films, not just oneThe unpredictable nature of entertainment returns and how to approach risk wiselyBuilding production companies that operate between $1M-$150M budgets with studio-level qualityPowerful Quotes:"I'm tired of crappy Christian content. God doesn't want your crap. He calls us to be excellent." - Chad Gundersen"Christians yielded culture, then got mad when culture went bad. Fine, it's risky, but is it worth the risk?" - Chris Juen"Platforms, not projects. How do you get around the most excellent people in the industry who have a slate of content and invest in that diversified platform?" - John ColemanAbout the Guests:Chris Juen and Chad Gundersen are the co-founders of Out of Order Studios and executive producers of The Chosen, the largest crowdfunded media project in history. Chris brings 20 years of studio experience from major productions including Contact, Spider-Man, and Polar Express, while Chad contributed 20 years of independent filmmaking expertise. Together, they've pioneered a hybrid production model that delivers studio-quality content at independent budgets—proving that faith-driven content can compete at the highest levels of entertainment while maintaining both artistic excellence and fiscal responsibility.Their production philosophy centers on creating environments where cast and crew are valued, where believers and non-believers alike can experience the gospel through excellent storytelling, and where investors can participate in cultural transformation through strategic, well-managed capital deployment.

Election. A controversial topic amongst believers but a topic from which the apostles and the Lord never shied away. Peter opens his first epistle by addressing the "elect exiles of the Dispersion," and he does so not to stir controversy but to be a great encouragement to the believers. Pastor Mollenkopf explains the rich value of the this opening, a value to the saints then and a great value for us today.

How are the Americans to join with God's Chosen?I have pity and sympathy for the people and My heart goes out to them, for they have been with Me now three days and have nothing [left] to eat. Mark 8:2

Worship Leader Taylor Cummings emphasizes the distinction between identity and calling, focusing on the importance of understanding one's identity through God's perspective before pursuing one's calling.

A jury has been chosen for the trial of Milwaukee County Judge Hannah Dugan next week.

I have absolutely no chill about today's episode. I mean it…you might want to grab a notebook, a pen, maybe even two, because this is a full-on mind-blown episode. Rabbi Jason Sobel is a Jewish man who believes Jesus is the Messiah, and the way he connects the dots between the Old Testament and the New? Y'all… it's like watching the story of Jesus go from regular definition to full-on high definition. We're talking about his journey of faith, how we can better understand and connect with Jewish culture, the significance of the number eight (just wait for that part!), and he even gives us the cultural and historical context of the birth of Jesus in a way that will have you sitting there going, “How did I not know this?!” He has served as a spiritual advisor for The Chosen since its inception and you're going to love getting to learn from him. His new book, Transformed By the Messiah, is absolutely beautiful.  In your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we're on page 129, so get those note-taking pages ready.  . . . . .

The holidays can feel especially heavy when your child is walking a path that doesn't reflect the way you raised them — spiritually, morally, or emotionally. If you've ever felt that quiet ache, this episode is meant to bring comfort, clarity, and hope. In today's conversation, we explore gentle, grace-filled ways to reconnect with your child during the holiday season without pressure, panic, or preaching. You'll hear why your presence matters more than "getting the words right," how to ask open, life-giving questions, and why small moments of warmth can rebuild trust over time. This is an episode for Christian parents who love deeply, hurt quietly, and want to keep the door open — even when the relationship feels complicated. What We Cover in This Episode: ❤️ Naming the Heartache Why the holidays magnify the distance, the grief, and the unspoken worries many parents carry.

Ashe in America and Ghost continue their journey through The Chosen with an in-depth look at Season 1, Episode 8, exploring Jesus' challenging teachings on forgiveness, mercy, and responding to injustice. They break down the episode's portrayal of Matthew's calling, Simon's internal struggle, and the emotional tension of choosing faith when circumstances feel unfair or overwhelming. Ashe highlights the practical difficulty of “turning the other cheek” in real life, especially in a world filled with political conflict, betrayal, and personal friction—while Ghost connects the episode's themes to Old Testament patterns, first-century culture, and the transformative shift Jesus demands from those who follow Him. Together they reflect on obedience, identity, and the cost of stepping into a new life with Christ, closing with insights on how viewers can apply these teachings in their own daily walk.

Rising Above: From Runaway Kid to Green Beret, Cop, and Creator This week's Team Never Quit episode brings you a raw, unfiltered, and deeply inspiring conversation with Sean Rogers - a man who has lived several lifetimes' worth of adversity, discipline, transformation, and impact. From a desert town to the global stage, Rogers' story is one of resilience forged under pressure. Born in California and raised in Phelan, his early years were marked by chaos and instability. After running away from home as a teenager, he refused to let hardship dictate his future. He finished high school on his own terms and made the bold choice to enlist in the military, setting into motion a journey that would change everything. While on active duty, Sean began his formal education and pushed himself academically with the same intensity he brought to training. He earned a master's degree in organizational leadership—all while pursuing the grueling path to become a U.S. Army Special Forces Green Beret. Two deployments later, he transitioned to a new mission: serving his community as a police officer. What he witnessed on the streets during the riots following the death of George Floyd would reshape his understanding of leadership, culture, communication, and human behavior. But Sean's story didn't stop there. Driven to help the next generation of warriors, he founded The FNG Academy, an online platform designed to prepare aspiring Special Forces candidates for the mental, physical, and emotional challenges of selection. What started as a simple resource has grown into a thriving YouTube community, a robust online store, and a dedicated team committed to equipping others to step into their potential with confidence. He later chronicled his incredible life journey in his autobiography, Rising Above, a book that captures the honesty, grit, and self-discovery that have shaped his path. Sean Rogers embodies what it means to overcome circumstances, own your story, and turn pain into purpose. Whether you're chasing personal growth, preparing for a demanding path, or simply looking for motivation to push through your own challenges, this is an episode you won't want to miss. In this episode you will hear: • Recently, I finally figured out that God is what I needed to be chasing. (5:27) • I got a Master's Degree. I ran marathons. I ran ultra marathons. Trying to fill that void. I got Special Forces; I went police officer. Everything I thought would help – none of it helped. (6:49) • They develop this fear in you that if you get found out by CPS, you're gonna get separated from your siblings. So, you start learning how to hide what's going on at home. (11:06) • I used to run away constantly – to all my family member's houses, and the cops would go get me and bring me back. (18:03) • [I wanted to die] I had one of two directions to go: either get worse, and then she's gonna look back one day and say she made the right decision, or I can get better and I can look back one day and say that was the best thing that ever happened to me. (38:59) • I had to make a decision. I don't want this to define me that someone got to choose my fate. (39:53) • If I can't get my act together enough to follow through on a plan, maybe the Army will be the place where they will let me be kinda wild and refine me a little bit. (44:56) • At 67:12 to 70:30, Sean speaks about an awful mistake he made in a gunfight. • Writing books. Of all the things I've done, I've hated that the worst. (78:00) • I trust people that talk about God now. A lot of SF guys idolize. We say “Look at me.” (78:06) • What stoked my fire with God was the show “Chosen.” (80:29) • I'm claiming to be Christian, and I don't even know how cool Jesus is. (80:57) • At some point you have to say. “I'm buckling down, this is where God wants me. I'm here – thick or thin, and we're gonna get through this.” (104:52) • [Marcus] from 0-40 it's an opinion; 40-60 it's perspective; and 60+ is wisdom. • Self-help books are broken people talking to broken people to give you some temporary encouragement. Treat them as what they are.

Click here to learn more about The Inspired Love Program   What if the thing you've been calling “love” your whole life… wasn't actually love at all? What if the intensity, the longing, the fear of losing someone, the obsession with being “enough,” the way your entire body lights up when a man chooses you — and collapses when he doesn't — wasn't about love… …but about something far older, deeper, and more painful? In this episode, we're exploring a pattern almost every woman carries yet almost none ever name. A pattern so woven into your relationships that you don't even know you're doing it. A pattern that shapes who you chase, who you tolerate, how you attach, and why you stay.   And the real question isn't: “Why do I love him so much?” It's: “Why do I fall apart when I'm not chosen?”   What happens when that spell finally breaks? What do you find on the other side of the chase — in the quiet space where the illusion falls away? And what does love feel like when it's no longer built on fear? Listen closely. This one may change the way you understand every relationship you've ever had.

In this morning's class, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explored the baffling, almost mythical global obsession with Israel and the Jewish people, a tiny nation that somehow takes up an outsized share of the world's attention. Drawing on the teachings of Rabbi Simon Jacobson, Rabbi YY Jacobson, and Rabbi Manis Friedman, Rabbi Bernath unpacked the spiritual roots behind antisemitism and the world's fixation on Jews.We confronted the paradox: being “chosen” doesn't raise us above others, it humbles us beneath the weight of responsibility. Using the Alter Rebbe's 1798 letter after his release on Yud Tes Kislev, we learned that true chosenness shrinks the ego while expanding the soul's mission: to illuminate the world with goodness, moral clarity, unity, and love.When Jews embrace who we are… Divine ambassadors of light, we trigger the world. But we also transform it.Key TakeawaysThe obsession is ancient and irrational — Jews are less than 0.25% of the world, yet remain humanity's main character.Reason alone cannot explain Jewish influence and survival — only our mission as bearers of ethical monotheism can.Chosen-ness ≠ superiority — it's a call to responsibility, growth, and humility.Closeness to G-d shrinks the ego, not inflates it — “Katonti,” like Jacob said: “I am made small by Your kindness.”Anyone can join the Jewish people — chosenness is a spiritual calling, not a biological club.The world senses Jewish holiness — sometimes more than Jews do — and reacts intensely, for better or worse.Our role is universal — to be a moral lighthouse, not a fortress of self-importance.#Israel #Jewish #Chosen #chosenpeople #chosenness #alterrebbe #yudteskislev #JewishSpirituality #Rebbe #Antisemitism #LightOverDarkness  #humility Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

SHOW DESCRIPTION This episode is a mirror, queen — and honestly, it's one I had to hold up for myself first. After Be You Brand Live, I caught myself doing the VERY thing I coach women out of… hiding in plain freaking sight. If you've been posting, “showing up,” or doing all the things but still feel invisible, diluted, or low-key disconnected from your own power? This episode is the line in the sand you didn't know you needed. We're talking identity leaks, invisible content, mission-divorced visibility, and the subtle self-abandonment costing you clients, confidence, and cash — without you even noticing. ✨ CONNECT WITH ATI

God calls believers to trust and follow Jesus--chosen, but chosen for what?

In this episode, we welcome Dallas Jenkins back to the show. He is a film and television director, writer, and producer, and he is the creator, director, and co-writer of the worldwide phenomenon The Chosen, the TV series about Jesus and the Apostles. The Chosen is the largest crowd-funded film project of all time. In this interview, we discuss the trajectory of The Chosen from pre-season 1 all the way to today, the biggest growing pain he's felt with a growing show, what fans can expect from the depictions of the crucifixion and resurrection, whether the crucifixion scenes will be as brutal as those from The Passion of the Christ, his response to people that avoid The Chosen because “it's not biblical”, the concerns over a pride flag seen on set, how the series will wrap, his upcoming projects depicting the lives of Moses and Joseph, and much more.
