2 Samuel 23, 1 Chronicles 11-12 / January 5-6, 2026 Somewhere back in time, you and I were given a faulty set of instructions. Somewhere we learned that only the most famous or the star athlete or the most publicly gifted individual is worth our time and attention, our respect and our loudest applause. But in reality, if it wasn't for the people who surround them, these well-known individuals would quickly fade in popularity and become among the most commonplace.

“Rejoice, O people of Zion! Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem! Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious, yet he is humble, riding on a donkey - riding on a donkey's colt.” - Zechariah 9:9In my opinion, Zechariah is a diamond of a book. It has so many facets, so many ways to approach it and points of emphasis and things to teach. Last week we talked about Haggai and Zechariah is a partner book - we are still in the post-exilic period talking about rebuilding the temple. But Zechariah covers a lot of ground. It talks about returning to the Lord. There are chapters of visions we haven't really seen the like of since Daniel and Ezekiel. There are calls to justice and mercy, promises of blessings and a beautiful look ahead to the coming Messiah and the second advent still to come. As I said, this is an incredibly rich, multifaceted book. To help us navigate it is Dr. Andrew Hill, Professor of Old Testament Emeritus at Wheaton College and author of a commentary on Zechariah.

Falconers and their opinions... You all have heard that sentiment mentioned many times now on the podcast, and for those of you who have been active falconers longer than five seconds, you know this sentiment all too well! There are some opinions that are more rooted in fact and that are widely agreed upon, but others are up for much more debate. There are always going to be disagreements within the falconry community, as there are in any life endeavor. I have no doubt there will be many who both agree and disagree with some of the thoughts and opinions shared by the guest of this episode, but nevertheless, I appreciate Karl taking the time to come on and spend a couple of hours sharing some pretty crazy hunting stories, some of his changes in his own opinions over the years, and some of his opinions on what he thinks we could or should be doing differently with falconry here in the United States. Whichever side of the fence you're on, I hope that, as always, it may at least get you thinking!

Pastor Jeff Edwards introduced our new sermon series, "Seek God". What are your resolutions? Any resolutions with God? What are the things that really help you connect with God? King Solomon made some big resolutions three thousand years ago and shows us some basics. Let's start the year off right and “Seek God” the way He has always desired. Jeff used 2 Chronicles 7:11-16 as his scripture reference.

Let the North Wind blow and awaken dry bones to life again.

This message kicks off the year by calling us to put God first through prayer and fasting and to realign our hearts with Him. It reminds us that what we do in the physical impacts the spiritual and invites us to seek God with focus and expectation. Watch, subscribe, and comment.
What final words would you leave to shape the faith and direction of your children for a lifetime?Drawing from David's last instruction to Solomon in 1 Chronicles 28:9, this message emphasizes four enduring priorities to pass on to the next generation:deeply knowing God (not merely acknowledging Him),wholeheartedly serving Him,living with right motives that please God rather than self or others, andactively seeking Him with the promise that He will be found.Through Scripture, illustration, and personal reflection, this study challenges believers to examine their relationship with God, reminding us that spiritual growth and blessing flow from intentional pursuit and obedience—and that we are always only as close to God as we choose to be.So if your life and legacy were distilled into a single message, would it point others toward truly knowing, serving, and seeking God?I Chronicles 28 9: "As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father and serve Him with a whole heart and a willing mind. For the Lord searches all hearts and understands every intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, he will let you find Him. But if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever."
In this solo episode of the American Dream Factory podcast, Nick Smoot explores a simple but powerful idea that keeps people stuck. Waiting.Waiting for permission.Waiting for perfection.Waiting for someone else to go first.Nick shares a personal story about solving a ridiculous traffic problem with a bucket of yellow paint and a little courage, and how that small act quietly changed behavior for hundreds of people and eventually the city itself.This episode is a reminder that cities do not change because of committees alone. They change when ordinary people take responsibility for the problems they see and act on them.If you feel lonely, disconnected, or frustrated with your city, this conversation is for you.Why waiting for permission keeps cities stagnantHow perfection becomes an excuse to avoid meaningful actionA real story of grassroots problem-solving that actually workedWhy no one will ever invite you to build the world you seeTaking responsibility for the chaos you notice around youCreating beauty, value, and order through small actionsWhy community begins with initiative, not authorityYou do not need permission to care about your city.You do not need perfection to get started.The gap between the life you want and the impact you could have is often one small action.Nick also shares how Build helps people take action together.

What does it really mean to follow God when obedience doesn't make sense yet? In this episode, we step into David's final charge to Solomon in 1 Chronicles 28:9–10 and uncover why knowing God must always come before doing for God. We talk about undivided hearts, wholehearted devotion, and why purity gives God permission to work freely in our lives. If you've ever wrestled with delayed obedience, divided affections, or uncertainty about God's calling, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to be strong—and do what God has asked.

The books of 1-2 Chronicles begin in seemingly the least engaging way imaginable, that is, with nine chapters of long genealogies! However, these lists of peoples, tribes, clans, and families teach us a lot about the theology of the author and what his main focus will be for the rest of the books. Enjoy this sample from Lesson 2, "Genealogies of Salvation History (1 Chron 1-9)" from Dr. Nick's ten-part course, "1-2 Chronicles: The Kingdom of the Lord." Anyone can join our community of students and stream the entire audio lesson and full course (and other courses too!) whenever they wish.

In this sermon by Chris Romig, the focus is on prayer, revival, and spiritual renewal at the start of a new year. He invites the congregation to imagine what could happen if God sent true revival to their church, city, and nation, especially during a year of major anniversaries like America's 250th and Venice's 100th. Chris Romig explains that, biblically, revival is a supernatural work of God that restores spiritual vitality to believers who have grown stagnant, leading to broader transformation in communities. Grounding his message in 2 Chronicles 7:14, Chris Romig emphasizes the importance of humility, repentance, and seeking God's presence through authentic, relational prayer not just ritual. He urges everyone to set aside daily time for prayer and Bible reading, reminding them that prayer is a privilege and a source of real connection with God. Using vivid stories and illustrations, Chris Romig calls listeners to move beyond empty habits and embrace a genuine relationship with God, like a child approaching a loving parent. The sermon closes with a call to unity, humility, and expectation encouraging the church to pray for revival and to trust God to work deeply in and through their lives this year.

In this first message in the New Year, Dr. Scott McKee invites us to reflect on our complicated relationship with “stuff” and to ask a deceptively simple question: who really owns it? Drawing from 1 Chronicles and the story of King David, Pastor Scott explores how possessions can quietly shape our fears, identities, and sense of security—and how Scripture offers a freeing alternative. David, once a shepherd boy and now a prosperous king, recognizes that everything he has ultimately belongs to God, and that his role is not owner but steward. Through David's joyful generosity, we discover that giving is not meant to be driven by obligation, guilt, or minimum requirements, but by gratitude, trust, and a willing heart. Pastor Scott helps us see how stewardship reshapes our posture—from clinging to what we think is “mine” to delighting in using what God has entrusted to us for his purposes. This message invites us to examine how stuff may be mastering us, and to rediscover the joy that comes when generosity flows from freedom rather than fear. As we begin a new year, we're encouraged to align our hearts with God's abundance and to use what we have not to build our own kingdoms, but his. Let's be part of what Jesus is still building.
