In the Beginning God Created the Heaven and the EarthCreation Podcast For Kids January 12–18: “In the Beginning God Created the Heaven and the Earth”Genesis 1–2⁠; Moses 2–3⁠; Abraham 4–5Because the world around us is so beautiful and majestic, it's hard to imagine the earth when it was “without form, and void” and “empty and desolate” (⁠Genesis 1:2⁠; Abraham 4:2⁠). One thing the Creation story teaches us is that God can, over time, make something magnificent out of something unorganized. That's helpful to remember when life seems chaotic. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are Creators, and Their creative work with us is not finished. They can make light shine in dark moments in our lives. They can fill our emptiness with life. They can transform us into the divine beings we were meant to be. That's what it means to be created in God's image, after His likeness (see Genesis 1:26⁠). We have the potential to become like Him: exalted, glorified, heavenly.This week kids will learn: “By mine Only Begotten I created these things.” Jesus Christ created the earth under Heavenly Fathers direction. Jesus created the earth.I am created in the image of God. “We were made to look like our heavenly parents and should treat our bodies with respect.” I was created in God's image.Your children can develop a sense of reverence and respect for their own and others' bodies as they learn that we were all created in God's imageI am responsible for caring for God's creations.God blessed and sanctified the Sabbath day.Practical tips and role playing for kids to practice explaining why they keep the sabbath day holy to their peers. The Sabbath day is holy.Audio about the creation taken from see “⁠The Creation of the Earth⁠” in Old Testament Stories⁠, 8–12). The 7 days of creation for kids! If you are new here - welcome! We are Come Follow Me Kids a primary podcast for kids who attend the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Pastor Chrissy Cole teaches week two of the Rhythms series with a message titled “Worship.” This sermon reframes worship as a spiritual rhythm designed to form believers through corporate gathering, unity, and devotion to Jesus—not simply an emotional experience. Chrissy outlines the kind of worship that pleases God: unity-driven devotion, Spirit-filled praise, Bible-centered proclamation, and a heart-connected response that leads to obedience and transformation. (00:00) - Podcast intro & welcome (00:23) - Sermon intro: Worship as a rhythm (01:18) - Worship is God's invitation (not emotionalism) (01:48) - The power of worshiping with the Body (03:46) - Rhythms form us into Christlikeness (06:21) - Worship vs fellowship (don't reduce it) (07:04) - Don't drift into isolated “safe faith” (09:14) - Worship beyond Sundays (prayer room & presence nights) (11:06) - If there's no worship, it's just a convention (13:45) - Worship that pleases God: unity-driven devotion (18:52) - Worship that pleases God: Spirit-filled praise (24:44) - Worship that pleases God: Bible-centered proclamation (30:38) - Worship that pleases God: heart-connected response (32:53) - First biblical worship: sacrifice (Genesis 22) (38:06) - Personal story: fear, conflict, and humility (40:51) - Invitation to respond to Jesus (42:38) - Salvation prayer (44:03) - Closing & online community outro

Jesus didn't light a lamp so it could be hidden and He didn't give us the gospel to keep it private. In this message from Mark 4:21–25, we unpack what Jesus meant by the lamp and the light, why the gospel is an open invitation (not hidden knowledge), and how the measure you bring - your attention, hunger, and willingness to listen—determines the understanding you receive.

Fr. Mike breaks down the Catechism's teaching that divine revelation consists of both Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition and emphasizes why both sources are of equal importance in the Faith. He also clarifies the difference between Apostolic Tradition and ecclesial traditions. Lastly, Fr. Mike encourages us to receive with docility the teachings and directives of the Magisterium of the Church, trusting in the authority of the Pope and the bishops. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 80-87. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/ciy Please note: The Catechism of the Catholic Church contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

In this episode of Don't Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Genesis 3–4 and Moses 4–5, walking through the story of Adam and Eve to uncover what scripture teaches about shame, mistakes, commandments, and God's true character. This lesson gently challenges the idea that God is waiting to punish us when we fall short. Instead, it reveals a God who comes looking for His children with kindness, questions, and a plan for redemption that existed from the very beginning.

“The most tragic episode in the history of the Church,” according to the Mormon Church's own website, is the Mountain Meadows Massacre. In this episode, we talk about the violence carried out by early Mormons at Mountain Meadows, what was deliberately covered up, and how to reckon with that history now—especially after leaving the church. We dig into the social and political tensions between Mormons in the Utah Territory and the federal government, the complex relationships with the Paiute people, and the fact that Mormon headquarters still isn't fully addressing the elephant in the room.

When Jesus desired for something to happen on Earth, He would pray to His father for it to happen. One of the major things He prayed for, according to scripture, was for church unification. Jesus desired that His church would be one, just like God and He were one. __________ John 17:20–23 KJV, Ephesians 4:11–16 KJV, 1 Corinthians 1:10–13 KJV, Ephesians 5:25–27 KJV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________

People aren't avoiding church because they don't have needs, but because they're unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.

Top leaders of the Church are provided financial support for their full time service. What do the scriptures say about such a practice?

From Hitler's Nuremberg podium, Pastor Lutzer recalls Nazi deception, warning such evil can reoccur. He urges moral courage to resist destructive agendas, even at personal cost, praying for strength and faithfulness.

From a prison cell, Paul writes one of the most joy-filled passages in Scripture, reminding us that joy is not found in control or comfort, but in Christ's presence and purposes—even in suffering. Walking through Philippians 1:12–30, we explore how hardship, when interpreted through the gospel, can produce courage, deepen meaning, and strengthen the church. Chains don't get the final word—Jesus does, and that is the source of defiant joy.Catch the sermon on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or  bridge.tv/sermons.To support this ministry and help us continue our God-given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrCSupport the show

Bollhagen has a Top 12 list or two that 'got him thinking', and Vicar tries to match football rule books to theology. The Baptism of Our Lord: Matthew 3:13–17

This morning we are returning to an annual sermon series we refer to as our New Year Essentials. These sermons address subjects to which we must repeatedly return for the glory of God and the transformation of lives. These are different sermons, taking different angles, on issues we need to come back to again-and-again. Today, we'll hear from Brooks Buser, the president of Radius International and DCC’s main missions training partner, on missions and the local church. Audio | Notes | Romans 10: 13 - 15

Living SENT begins with loving God with all in devotion, and practically that flows into loving our neighbors both near and far.

DateJanuary 11, 2026SynopsisIn this sermon, we dive into the disruptive power of Jesus's baptism, revealing how it offers a new imagination for how we see the world. Jesus steps into the water to redefine righteousness—it's not about maintaining purity or order, but about radical solidarity that shatters systems of control and exclusion. By claiming our first, revolutionary name as Beloved, we embody a vision in which justice flows like a river and are empowered to take a bold next step toward the healing of God's world.ReferencesScripture: Matthew 3:13–17About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.

As we launch our new sermon series Being Church, Pastor Gabe kicks us off by asking the question why church? And in our text from Ephesians we find that it is in Christ's blood bought church we are given an unshakeable identity, joined to a formative community, and given an enduring purpose.   Digging Deeper Questions:  When you think of the word "church" what comes to mind for you? Why church? Why are you part of the church? Or not? How does the identity of being a saint in christ, shape your daily life? does it? could it? Have you ever had someone speak the truth in love towards you? How did that go? You ever speak it to someone else? What role do you see yourself playing as Christ builds his church?

The Gospel was handed on in two ways — orally and in writing. Both Scripture and Tradition are sources of Divine Revelation. Fr. Mike describes how the first apostles left bishops as their successors, passing down to them their teaching authority, and this apostolic succession is preserved until the end of time. The passing on of the Faith isn't something reserved for bishops but something we are all called to participate in. Through the Holy Spirit, God's Word is present and active in the Church today. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 74-79. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Between 1911 and 1912, entire families across Louisiana and Texas were slaughtered in their sleep with an ax — their bodies sometimes arranged in prayer, their blood drained into buckets, and cryptic messages scrawled on the walls. A 17-year-old girl confessed to 35 of the murders, claimed she belonged to a secret voodoo cult called the Church of Sacrifice — and then vanished into history.IN THIS EPISODE: A series of ax murders took place in Louisiana and Texas. Gruesome as they were, they began to horrify the public even more when they were admitted to by a teenaged voodoo priestess. Despite her confession though, a pair of authors say that there was someone else in the area at the time even more dangerous and who likely did most of the killing unbeknownst to even the voodoo priestess. That man is know simply as “The Man From The Train”. Plus, we'll look a few more gruesome ax murders that took place in the 1800s.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:00:53.506 = Show Open00:02:28.706 = Voodoo Murders of Clementine Barabet00:17:52.092 = *** The Man From The Train00:33:05.318 = *** Ax Murders of the 1800s00:52:26.088 = Show CloseSOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“The Voodoo Murders of Clementine Barnabet” (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2c5fcw) and “The Man From The Train” (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3fc77w4h) by Benjamin Welton for ListVerse“Axe Murders of the 1800s” by Elizabeth Yetter (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vjfc6dp6), and Josh Gotter (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/367wz7rd) for ListVerseBOOK: “The Man From The Train: Discovering America's Most Elusive Serial Killer” by Bill James and Rachel McCarthy James: https://amzn.to/3fiuHhMWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Jesus shows that no matter what, He calls us to trust in Him and to do what He says—there's a reason for everything. Morning Offering, January 10, 2026Every morning, join Father Brad as he begins the day with prayer and reflection. In a few short minutes, Father Brad guides you in prayer, shares a brief reflection grounding your day in the Church's rhythm of feast days and liturgy, and provides you with the encouragement necessary to go forward with peace and strength. Disclaimer: The ads shown before, during, or after this video have no affiliation with Morning Offering and are controlled by YouTubeLet us do as the saints urge and begin our days in prayer together so as a community of believers we may join the Psalmist in saying, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” (Psalm 5:3-4)________________

We open with a candid case for why Huxley's warning better fits our moment than Orwell's and trace how screens rewire mentality, thin out community, and distort desire. We name four mental shifts—meaningless, inexhaustible, nonchalant, depersonalized—and show how they drive attention loss, echo chambers, and loneliness, then point to a better way of friendship and formation.Thank you for listening! Please visit us at www.faith-pca.org.

We lay a biblical foundation for understanding technology as a good part of human vocation that has been bent toward self-glory, then trace how efficiency, idols, and the illusions of omniscience deform our lives. We map three paths—retreat, receive, redeem—and commit to a hopeful, redemptive way forward.Thank you for listening! Please visit us at www.faith-pca.org.
