As artificial intelligence reshapes how we live, work, and connect—what does it mean for our spiritual lives? In this episode, Adam and the crew unpack how tools like AI can support, challenge, and even disrupt our walk with God. From digital Bible apps to algorithm-driven connection, they explore both the opportunity and the danger of technology becoming a substitute for intimacy with the Father.Drawing from the story of Adam and Eve, this conversation reminds us that no matter how advanced our tools become, nothing can replace genuine human relationship and divine connection. As the Church enters the digital age, we're challenged to use these tools with wisdom—anchored in truth, led by the Spirit, and committed to staying fully human.--Connect with:Pastor Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Pastor Sammy https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/Pastor Aaron Levy https://www.instagram.com/_aaronlevy/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Get Aaron Levy's book, JOHN: 21 Daily Drips of Dialogue: https://a.co/d/7lGB90i--Have a question?

Send us a textSaints in the South classic! This week we discuss how scriptures that are specifically given to individuals at the time, can be applied to our lives and our circumstances. For example, section 81 was originally given to Jesse Gause. However, he later left the church and this revelation, when published substituted Frederick G. Williams name for Jesse Gause's name. We discuss the importance of standing in the office in which you have been called and doing it faithfully. Sometimes that is a calling in church, a calling in life, or a situation you are placed in. Where much is given, much is required. It is true, those who have been given more or know more should be expected to do more. Finally, we discuss who is supposed to care for those that stand in need. Who has claim upon the church or the Lord's storehouse? Who has the responsibility to watch over the down trodden? Join us this week as we continue to apply the scriptures to our personal lives.Support the show... Become a "Patron Saint"!!

Send us a textModern medicine rests on a centuries‑old decision to split mind from body. That fault line still runs through every clinic and classroom, raising an uncomfortable question: if the foundation ignores half of human experience, how scientific are we really? In this episode, Dr Eeks talks with physician‑author Dr Robert Smith about why his new book Has Medicine Lost Its Mind? argues it is time to reunite what never should have been divided. What We CoverThe Great Split: A medieval Church decree let scientists dissect bodies but barred them from the head, setting up the mental‑vs‑physical divide that still guides clinical practice.Primary‑Care Patchwork: Family doctors now manage roughly 75 percent of U.S. mental‑health care despite minimal formal training in mental health.Medicalizing Real‑Life Messes: Trauma, chronic stress, and tough social conditions often get reframed as diseases because the system lacks better options.The “Complex” Patient Label: How “complex” often translates to “we're overwhelmed and don't know what's really wrong.”Culture on Autopilot: Rituals, hierarchy, and resistance to change can block genuine healing even when evidence points elsewhere.A Way Forward: The biopsychosocial model that addresses lab values and life stories—and what it would take for mainstream medicine to embrace it.If you have ever felt that your doctor's office visit left half of you outside the exam room, press play and join the conversation about what real, whole‑person healthcare could look like. Dr. Robert C. Smith is a nationally acclaimed authority on evidence‑based mental health care and doctor–patient communication. A University Distinguished Professor of Medicine and Psychiatry at Michigan State University, he pioneered the first patient‑centered training approach that teaches clinicians how to forge strong, collaborative relationships with their patients. His contributions have earned him numerous honors, including Master status from the American College of Physicians and the prestigious George Engel Award for Outstanding Research. Dr. Smith has authored more than 150 peer‑reviewed articles and continues to garner hundreds of academic citations each year. His expertise has been featured in outlets such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Today Show, and he writes regularly for Psychology Today.

Read OnlineAt the judgment the queen of the south will arise with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and there is something greater than Solomon here.” Matthew 12:42In this passage, Jesus refers to the Queen of Sheba who traveled about 1,400 miles from Southern Arabia, which was most likely located in either modern-day Yemen or Ethiopia, to meet King Solomon. The queen had heard much about Solomon, about his wealth and wisdom, and wanted to find out if all that she heard was true. So she made the long journey and stayed with him for about six months, according to tradition. After spending time with him, she was greatly impressed and bestowed upon him gifts of gold, spices and precious stones. She said to him, “I did not believe the report until I came and saw with my own eyes that not even the half had been told me. Your wisdom and prosperity surpass the report I heard” (1Kings 10:7).This foreign queen was deeply impressed with Solomon. Her journey, gifts and words illustrate her deep respect for him and her admiration. Jesus uses this story to illustrate the simple fact that Jesus Himself is much greater than Solomon and that He should be treated in a way that far surpasses the way the queen treated Solomon. But Jesus also makes it clear that, at the Final Judgment, this queen will rise and condemn the scribes and Pharisees because they failed to see the wisdom and kingship of Jesus. Instead, they came to Jesus, seeking signs and proof of Who He was.In our own lives, the witness of the Queen of Sheba should be a source of true inspiration. She was someone who was powerful and wealthy herself, and yet she wanted to learn from Solomon and to benefit from his great wisdom which was given him by God. She should inspire us to do all we can to daily turn to our Lord and to seek His wisdom.Jesus's wisdom flows to us in many ways. The Gospels are especially important as a source of the most important lessons for life. Personal prayer, reading about the lives of the saints, and study of the teachings of our Church are also essential ways in which we receive the wisdom given to us by God. As you think about the many ways that are available to you to grow in the wisdom of God, try to use the Queen of Sheba as an inspiration. Do you have her same zeal? Are you willing to devote much time and effort to the pursuit of holy learning? Do you desire to journey to Jesus in the way that she desired to journey to Solomon?One of the greatest hindrances to this pursuit of holy wisdom is sloth, or laziness. It is becoming increasingly easy to engage our minds in mindless pursuits. Many people can easily spend many hours in front of the television, computer or mobile devices and waste precious time and energy. Zeal for God and the pursuit of the many truths of faith must become the cure for sloth in our lives. We must want to know. And we must do all we can to increase that holy desire within us. Reflect, today, upon the long journey made by this queen in pursuit of the wisdom of Solomon. As you do, examine whether you exhibit the same zeal that she had and how devoted you are to the pursuit of the wisdom of God. Where you are lacking, let her witness inspire you. Jesus is infinitely greater and wiser than Solomon, and we have been given full access to Him through prayer and holy learning. If you will make that holy journey to our Lord, with much determination, then unlike the scribes and Pharisees, your day of judgment will be a glorious one. My Lord of all Wisdom, You are infinitely greater than the wisest of kings and more glorious than anything I can imagine. Please fill me with zeal, dear Lord, so that I will fervently pursue You and daily journey to You. Please guide my prayer and my study so that Your wisdom and Your very Self will be bestowed upon me. Jesus, I trust in You.Image: Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc.

The present tends to seem more distressing to us than the past, for the simple reason that we are not obliged to live in the past. Nevertheless the distress of our present age is real and therein lies the temptation to despair. We see senseless wars and war crimes; we see Machiavellian politics and political corruption; we see growing inequality and flagrant injustice; in the words of the psalmist, the arrogant prosper and the wicked have no pain. And so we are tempted to despair. But we do not have to despair.

" I wish I had this knowledge at the age of 12 or even 8 when I was baptized. And I know it was probably preached to me, but I wish I would've grasped it. But I wish I knew who I was before. I wish I knew that I was truly a son of God. You can figure out who you are by gaining a relationship with your Father in Heaven. It's real. It's almost tangible. There's times where I say prayers and I feel the spirit so strongly that I'm speechless, you know? I think if we really try to get close to Heavenly Father, He's not going to hold back."September 5th & 6th Provo COME BACK TO CHRIST EVENT Tickets can be purchased at https://www.comebackpodcast.org/come-back-to-christ-event-september-5-6-utah-valley-convention-center-provo-ut-2/Cozy Earth code COMEBACK for 40% off https://cozyearth.com/Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/00:00 Struggles with Church and Addiction06:12 Will's Early Childhood and Family Background07:43 Impact of Missionaries and Church Activities19:23 Realization and Return to Faith35:31 A Pivotal Bishop Interview45:41 Mission Challenges and Growth56:09 Advice for Those Who Feel They Don't Belong01:01:02 Closing Thoughts and GratitudeIf you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.comFor business inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Michelle BergerAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

Origin stories are popular these days. Today, we look at the origin story of the church that met in Philemon's home, which is better known as the Colossian church. We will focus on the two main human means God used for the birth of this church: Paul (Acts 19:8-10) Epraphras (Colossians 1:6-8; 4:12-13) We can be encouraged by how God uses our lives and His word through us in ways that go beyond what we often are aware of. Small things can lead to significant results! Let us be faithful in the days of seemingly small things. You can watch this message here.
Dr. Crane shares from Mark 9 where Jesus tells his disciples for the second time of his coming journey to Jerusalem where he will be killed, and then rise again on the third day. He then teaches his disciples to be humble and servant-oriented as they deal with the world.

In this sermon, we explore the reality that we all want a king who exercises dominion, brings prosperity, and delivers his people.Every human being longs for the right kind of leadership and rule. When we experience good leadership, we want to follow. When we experience poor leadership, we lament and seek other guidance. Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

The leaders of the Church in Missouri grew troubled. Saints were gathering there by the hundreds. Relatively few of them were obeying the law of consecration when they arrived. “Have you all fulfilled the law of the church,” William Phelps wrote to them in the Church's newspaper, “which saith: Behold thou shalt consecrate all thy properties, that which thou hast, unto me, with a covenant and a deed which cannot be broken? Meanwhile, in Ohio, the community of Saints continues to grow in size. Efforts to build a city of believers moves forward. However, challenges abound as the two communities enter into competition with each other generating some problems between the groups. Another revelation to Joseph from the Lord outlines one of the gifts of the Spirit that Joseph often mentioned as being the most important: the understanding of spirits. At the same time, one of Joseph Smith's most compelling prophecies was released: The prophecy on the American Civil War, recorded in Doctrine and Covenants 87. It outlines a future conflict beginning in South Carolina, escalating into a global war, and involving slaves rising against their masters. It also mentions the involvement of Great Britain and other nations. This prophecy, given on December 25, 1832, has been interpreted as a prediction of the American Civil War and subsequent global conflicts. But how well known was the prophecy? Was it easy to manufacture because of events going on in the nation at the time? Did Joseph tell people about it in advance or wait until the war started and conveniently say he had received a prophecy? The truth will surprise you. Join Dr. Lynne Hilton Wilson as she explores these exciting moments in LDS Church History.

Patrick opens with stories from listeners in the trades, questioning if hands-on jobs like garbage collection and machining could outlast the AI boom, all while sprinkling in sharp humor about robot insurance and future-proof careers. He tackles Catholic faith topics head-on, from unpacking the nature of God’s love, to candidly weighing the pros and cons of attending Society of St. Pius X Masses, laying out the deep tensions between tradition and Church unity. In a personal turn, Patrick reflects on raising eleven children, offering raw, practical encouragement about family life and sacrifice, before fielding questions both philosophical and delightfully mundane.

Dr. Guy Waters is the Professor of New Testament at the Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi and a teaching elder in the Mississippi presbytery of the Presbyterian Church in America. Today, he joins us to speak about his book, One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church (Lexham Academic), in which he sets out a full-scale Reformed doctrine of the church. The title echoes the four classical “marks” confessed in the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed. This study is an extended exploration of how Scripture, read through a Reformed lens, fills out each of those creedal descriptors and binds them together into a single, coherent doctrine of the church. Dr. Waters organizes the book in three movements: Biblical Revelation (Part I). Seven chapters trace “the people of God” from creation and Eden through Abraham, Moses, the prophets, Christ and the apostles, showing that God has always had one covenant people that reaches its eschatological maturity in the new-covenant church. Doctrinal Construction (Part II). Waters treats the classic loci of ecclesiology: the church's four attributes (one, holy, catholic, apostolic); its marks (pure preaching, right sacraments, biblical discipline); its government (Christ the king, officers and courts); its worship (word, sacraments, prayer, Lord's Day); its life (gifts and discipline); and its mission (“gathering and perfecting the saints” until Christ returns) . Truth for Life and Mission (Part III). A final chapter applies the doctrine to church-state relations, defending a robust spirituality of the church and principled religious liberty. The conclusion distills the argument into seven theses that function as a theological checksum. Throughout, Waters interlaces biblical exegesis, historical theology and confessional sources (especially the Westminster Standards). The result is both an academic survey and a pastoral manifesto aimed at equipping the church for faithful witness today. The conversation explores the essential identity and mission of the church, the continuity between the Old and New Testaments, and what is distinctly new through Christ's redemptive work. Waters outlines the seven theses of his book, offering clarity on ecclesiology for today's church, particularly in light of confusion over polity, worship, and the church's relation to the state. This episode is an invitation to recover a robust, Reformed understanding of the church's nature and calling, rooted in Scripture and developed in the tradition of historic confessions.
