Preached by Everett Berry

When you nervously confess you're thinking about leaving the hustle behind for a slower, softer life, your vampire girlfriend couldn't be happier. Curled up together under a cozy blanket, she eagerly imagines a future where you work from home — safe from garlic ambushes, rogue possums, and lonely days. With her dramatic flair, endless affection, and playful promises of "daily quests," she reminds you that you deserve a life built for you. A warm, comforting nighttime talk full of cuddles, gentle teasing, and plans for forever.

Isaiah writes a message ahead to a group of people in Israel who need God‘s comfort. God gives them a message of comfort and forgiveness, and puts a cherry on top with Nehemiah's name!

Part 1 - Politics USA cabinet official leaks sensitive strike details on a personal Signal account, a suspected war crime at sea ignites bipartisan scrutiny, and Trump drops 158 posts to flood the news cycle. We connect the dots between bad judgment, broken incentives, and a culture that rewards noise over integrity—then pivot to how ordinary people can still choose clarity, community, and joy.We unpack what the Pentagon's inspector general actually found, why firing on survivors violates both law and conscience, and how institutional timidity lets reckless decisions stand. From Congress to corporate suites, too many stakeholders run a personal cost-benefit analysis and call it leadership. We talk candidly about due process, soft power, and the growing distance between American ideals and American behavior that allies can't ignore.Part 2 - Social Media Australia DoingsThe conversation shifts to Australia's under-16 social media ban: bold signal or blunt tool? We weigh the mental health upside against enforcement pitfalls like age verification, privacy risks, and teen workarounds. What works better is intentional digital life - parent-guided norms, critical thinking, and open talk about algorithms, creator incentives, and AI fakery. For today's kids, the phone is the new street corner because the real one is empty; rebuilding offline freedom matters as much as any app rule.Part 3 - Hallmark Update with AndreaTo close, we check in on small comforts with Hallmark and holiday movies - why cozy tropes help our nervous systems, what makes a good one (chemistry, clean writing, a near-kiss well-earned), and where the genre needs to grow. Authentic diversity isn't a checkbox; it's the texture that keeps stories honest!   Heavy news and light stories can live side by side.

Closing Thought: It is true concerning your sufferings, dear brethren, that God's got this and He's got you too. But do not think irrationally: Satan is real and intent on swallowing you up, so watch out. He will use people and your own desires to lure you into sin. This is the Christian life; it has always been this way, and it will remain so until Christ returns. When suffering, do not run; stand firm in the faith, remember that God is in control, and trust Him.

Isaiah 40:1-11 The Bible never promises us a stress-free life. Indeed, we're regularly told that, as Christians, we can expect suffering. However we can also always expect God to be our great comforter whatever we face. His comfort is so extraordinarily powerful that even when circumstances are at their most dire, we are lifted up, drawn closer and enlivened in our faith. God comforts us by his nature, his word, and through the comfort of his people. Isaiah prophesies about God's comfort coming to his people in distress. In Jesus, and by his Spirit, that same comfort is available to us now and always. By Ed Flint

What if Jesus leaving was actually for our good? In this week’s message, “To Your Advantage,” Pastor Ron Merrell continues our Final Words series with a powerful look at John 16, where Jesus promises the coming of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit isn’t a replacement for Jesus—He’s our greatest advantage.- He gives strength when we feel weak- Speaks truth when life feels unclear- Comforts us with peace that endures Discover why Jesus said His departure was actually a gift—and how the Holy Spirit empowers us to live with courage and faith every day. “It is to your advantage that I go away…” — John 16:7 #FinalWords #ToYourAdvantage #PastorRonMerrell #ConnectionPointeChurch #HolySpirit #ChristianFaith #BibleTeaching #Jesus #ChurchOnline #BrownsburgChurch NEXT STEPSHave you made a decision to follow Jesus and now wondering what your next step is?

Closing Thought: As God's people (elect exiles, royal priesthood, holy nation, Christians) whatever trials we face we must remember these two facts: 1) God is in complete control over all that is happening to us and around us. 2) God is preparing us for glory, and He cares for us. Dear Christian, if you are suffering or facing a trial, and anxiety and worry grip your heart, remember; GOD'S GOT THIS AND HE'S GOT YOU!!!!

On Safeguarding Sunday we gave thanks for our great team of volunteers and we reflected on Psalm 42 and the invitation to bring all our emotions into the presence of God, including our sadness and anger at injustice and evil. Our God hears the cries of our hearts and comforts us.

ITP - 134 A huge welcome to Rita Bateson of Eblana Learning, who unpacks the real-world mess and magic of AI in education. She takes listeners through her globe-trotting career from Dublin to Rome, Bermuda, Germany, and the IB, weaving in how AI is reshaping classrooms, assessment, teacher workload, academic integrity, and student habits. Rita explains the Overton Window of AI discourse, why teachers need both AI literacy and healthy skepticism, and how schools can balance innovation with ethics, sustainability, and good old-fashioned human expertise.The hosts dig into critical thinking, cognitive offloading, phone-free schools, environmental costs of AI, and why students' inch-wide, mile-deep use of AI demands that teachers develop broader understanding. Rita also shares the mission behind Eblana Learning, their AI curriculum, PD academy, and her drive to support leaders navigating AI without panic or techno-worship. Add in some delightfully unhinged international misadventure stories (Swiss banks, English “interpreter” classes), and you've got an episode loaded with insight, humor, and brutally honest guidance for teachers worldwide.Rita is a Cofounder of Eblana LearningThe full link is https://eblanalearning.com/If you need Rita as an Italian interpreter, here is her LinkedIN profile link.

Pastor Kok Chuen Chiat delivered his sermon based on the verses in Isaiah 40.    

Now let your unfailing love comfort me, just as you promised me, your servant [NLT]

He comforts us in all our troubles. [NLT]

Each week on Hope for the Caregiver, I take listeners into the heart of what sustains us when life's weight feels too heavy. This week, I shared why our deepest comfort as caregivers doesn't come from rest, money, or even help—it comes from knowing we are not our own, but belong body and soul to our faithful Savior, Jesus Christ. From the Heidelberg Catechism to the story behind the hymn Have Thine Own Way, Lord, I explored what it means to surrender our weariness to the One who shapes and reshapes us like clay in the hands of a potter. Caregiving forces us to face what we can't fix—but it also invites us to trust the One who holds every broken piece. I also shared about our new addition at home—Built for Grace—and the moment Gracie saw her new accessible space for the first time. It reminded me that love doesn't cling to what used to be; it builds again with what remains. "Love that endures learns to build again with what remains." — Wendell Berry

Cane is dealing with the aftermath of a damaging expose by Newman Media about his father, Colin Atkinson's (Tristan Rogers) fraudulent dealings, which implicated Cane's company, Arabesque.  Y&R spoilers focus on Phyllis as she deals with the fallout from her past misdeeds that caused her children, Daniel Romalotti (Michael Graziadei) and Summer Newman (Allison Lanier), to distance themselves from her. Phyllis, who has previously faked her own death with the help of Jeremy Stark (James Hyde), provides comfort and guidance to Cane, assuring him that their children will eventually forgive them. Spoilers for Young and Restless divulge Cane's first call after learning about the expose and facing the wrath of his ex-wife, Lily Winters (Christel Khalil), and his mother figure, Jill Abbott (Jess Walton), is to Phyllis. Both characters have a history of making poor choices and dealing with the consequences of their actions, which may serve as the foundation for their mutual understanding and connection. More Y&R spoilers emphasize the characters' struggle to escape the shadows of their fathers, who were known con men. It further explores the theme of unrequited love, as Phyllis deals with her unresolved feelings for Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow), who seems to be committed to Sharon Newman (Sharon Case).   Soap Dirt is the most subscribed to YouTube soap opera channel.

Today's Promise: 2 Corinthians 7:6 Discouragement is a part of life. All of us face times when we're tired, discouraged, or even depressed. Some people think that once you become a Christian, you should never feel discouraged or face depression. The truth is, no matter who you are, there are times when you will face discouragement. If you let Him, God will use others to encourage and strengthen you. God never forgets you in your discouragement. He works behind the scenes to bring others into your life to comfort and encourage you.

Feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable, you lie on the bed, lost in your thoughts, when your partner notices something is wrong. They approach you gently, uncovering the fears you've been hiding—your scars and the anxiety of being judged at an upcoming pool party. With unwavering love and tender affection, they remind you of your strength and resilience, turning your scars into symbols of the battles you've conquered. Through soft words, sweet kisses, and an offer of a “safeword for comfort,” they create a safe space where you feel truly seen, supported, and cherished. Let their soothing voice remind you that you're never alone and always loved. Script by HorcruxesLadyHunter

I, even I, am He who comforts you. [NKJV]

Fr. Mike brings us into the book of Consolation as we continue through Isaiah, and learn about how God never fails to comfort his people, even in the worst of times. He also introduces us to the Prophet Ezekiel, as we read about God accompanying his people into exile, even after their unfaithfulness.Today's readings are Isaiah 39-40, Ezekiel 1, and Proverbs 11:29-31. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
