Sermon Notes:o Dallas Willard – Joy is a deep and pervasive sense of well-being, of knowing and trusting that God cares for us and is working for our good.o Are we a joyful church?o A church of joy focuses not on us, but on Jesus.o My hope is built on nothing less, than Jesus' blood and righteousness.o Acts 2:22a – Men of Israel, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you…o Acts 2:22b – … accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.o Acts 2:23 – This man was handed over to you by God's set purpose and foreknowledge, and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.o Acts 2:24 – But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.o Jesus was on a mission from God.o Jesus proved he was from God by his miracles and mighty works.o Jesus died for our sins on the cross because it was God's plan.o Jesus was resurrected by God to show death was defeated.o Being a church of joy means this is Jesus' church, not ours.o To help as many people as possible take their next step toward Jesus.o Being church of joy means we are participating in God's plan.o You are to be my witnesses…o Are you participating in God's plan?o Being a church of joy means we are forgiven people.o Being a church of joy means we are Easter People!o Acts 2:37-39 - 37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”o 38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”o Heavenly Father, I confess I have failed at life. Please forgive me. I give you control of my life and from now on I will follow Jesus.o Lake Baptism, Sunday, September 14, 5 pm.o Thy will be done, thy kingdom come.LIFE Group Discussion QuestionsOpener: On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 is high) what score would give to our church being a church of joy? Please share your reasons.Go Deeper1. Read Acts 2:22-24.a. In Peter's list of core beliefs, what do you see as the core beliefs required to be a follower of Jesus?b. In your opinion, what do modern day Christians add to the list? What is the impact of adding something to Peter's list?c. Imagine being in the crowd that day. What might be the biggest stumbling block to you as you pondered following Jesus?2. Read Acts 2:37-39a. Notice the reaction of the crowd. What do you think it means that they were cut to the heart?b. To repent is to go the other direction. Have you known someone who professed Jesus and was baptized, but showed no life change? What do you think Jesus would say about their relationship to him?c. Baptism was well known in Jesus time. Converts to Judaism were baptized. Why do you think Jesus told his followers to be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit?3. Name three things your group can do that will help our church be a church of joy.

Saul's radical transformation from persecutor to preacher (Acts 9) and Cornelius' Spirit-filled awakening (Acts 10) reveal that no one is beyond God's grace, that the Holy Spirit empowers ordinary people to boldly witness for Christ, and that God's kingdom welcomes all, regardless of background. These stories remind us that God is always at work, orchestrating redemption, and that we too come as unlikely converts made new through Jesus' sacrifice and the power of His Spirit.

AI assistants don't list. They recommend. Write content that is the answer — or stay invisible. AI lifts content with clarity, structure, and decision utility. Nothing else. If your page can't deliver 3 takeaways in 5 seconds, AI won't lift it.AI Chooses Winners. Are You One of Them?AI assistants are not listing options. They are recommending answers.

It took me a long while to realize this: AI isn't just something like a chatbot for my customers. AI can work behind the scenes to facilitate getting the right stuff in front of the right people for me, even just to figure out who people are and how I should talk to them. And today, I want to share exactly what I'm doing, how expensive this is to run, and how I believe this can be part of every single software as a service business out there—even if you don't have any touchpoint with artificial intelligence in that business at all. Even if you don't think you should be offering AI features to your customers.This episode of The Bootstraped Founder is sponsored by Paddle.com — SaaS Happy Hour SeriesThe blog post: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/the-0-20-day-ai-system-that-converts-trial-users-into-paying-customers/ The podcast episode: https://tbf.fm/episodes/the-0-20-day-ai-system-that-converts-trial-users-into-paying-customersCheck out Podscan, the Podcast database that transcribes every podcast episode out there minutes after it gets released: https://podscan.fmSend me a voicemail on Podline: https://podline.fm/arvidYou'll find my weekly article on my blog: https://thebootstrappedfounder.comPodcast: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/podcastNewsletter: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/newsletterMy book Zero to Sold: https://zerotosold.com/My book The Embedded Entrepreneur: https://embeddedentrepreneur.com/My course Find Your Following: https://findyourfollowing.comHere are a few tools I use.

Is all that content you're putting out actually doing anything or just adding to the noise? Mike Koenigs has been creating content that converts longer than most of us have been online. He's a five-time founder with multiple exits, 19 books (including a WSJ bestseller), and decades of helping entrepreneurs turn attention into revenue. And in this conversation, he breaks down why the old rules of content no longer apply. We talk about the trap so many creators fall into (chasing likes, followers, and attention for attention's sake) and why that strategy is dead in the water if there's no conversion on the other side. Mike shares how to stand out in a sea of AI-generated noise, why founder-led brands are the most defensible asset in any business, and how to make sure your content actually drives revenue.  He also walks you through his brilliant “$1,000 Cup of Coffee” method for qualifying high-ticket clients and the simple six-part framework he uses to reinvent founders and their brands. If you're feeling stuck in the content hamster wheel (or just want a smarter way to grow) then this episode will show you how to create stuff that actually moves the needle.

Watch all our Podcasts on YouTube Previous podcast episode: Transcript Welcome back to another episode of Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta, and welcome to Episode 451. Okay, so I took last week off, as some of you may or may not know. And one of the things that I've decided, if you saw the email that goes out on Friday, is that I'm gonna start going to every other week. Now, that doesn't mean that there's not going to be a podcast or I'm not going to be still feeding you guys. What that means is in the off week, since we have 451 podcast episodes, what I'm going to start doing is serving you up like series. So let's say you're starting with employees. And I'm gonna say, "Hey, if you're starting with employees and you want to learn about employees, listen to these 3 episodes." Or "Hey, you want to learn some content marketing hacks? I have 3 episodes on it here." And so that's kind of how we're going to do this on the off weeks, and it'll also give you guys a little bit of a chance to catch up, because I know some of you are in the middle of a major... Something else I want to talk to you about before we actually get into the topic today, which is about blogging with a strategy — which I do not see a lot of people doing — I want to share with you a clip and let me set this up for you. I alluded to it on the last episode. This is a coaching session with Becky from Paws Around Motown. And she wanted to take her entire phone script, and she wanted to build it out — and build it out with like, why are we saying this? What is the impact psychologically? You know, like, all of it. So it's not just a bullet point script that her office staff follow and they don't know why. So we really went into it, and it ended up being more than 30 pages. And what I said to her was, I wonder if we can get AI to do this with us to role play? Because guys, you want to role play, or you say you're gonna practice, but do we ever really practice? No. What are we gonna do?

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: A False Converts Talk May Be Very Affecting Subtitle: The Religious Affections Speaker: Jonathan Edwards Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 8/14/2025 Length: 21 min.

Nothing can be certainly concluded concerning the nature of religious affections, that the relations persons give of them, are very affecting. The true saints have not such a spirit of discerning, that they can certainly determine who are godly, and who are not. For though they know experimentally what true religion is, in the internal exercises of it, yet these are what they can neither feel nor see, in the heart of another.

Simply “raising awareness” isn't enough anymore for nonprofits.

Full Text of ReadingsSaturday of the Eighteenth Week in Ordinary Time Lectionary: 412The Saint of the day is Saint Teresa Benedicta of the CrossSaint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross' Story A brilliant philosopher who stopped believing in God when she was 14, Edith Stein was so captivated by reading the autobiography of Teresa of Avila that she began a spiritual journey that led to her baptism in 1922. Twelve years later she imitated Saint Teresa by becoming a Carmelite, taking the name Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. Born into a prominent Jewish family in Breslau, Germany—now Wroclaw, Poland—Edith abandoned Judaism in her teens. As a student at the University of Göttingen, she became fascinated by phenomenology–an approach to philosophy. Excelling as a protégé of Edmund Husserl, one of the leading phenomenologists, Edith earned a doctorate in philosophy in 1916. She continued as a university teacher until 1922, when she moved to a Dominican school in Speyer; her appointment as lecturer at the Educational Institute of Munich ended under pressure from the Nazis. After living for four years in the Cologne Carmel, Sister Teresa Benedicta moved to the Carmelite monastery in Echt, Netherlands, in 1938. The Nazis occupied that country in 1940. In retaliation for being denounced by the Dutch bishops, the Nazis arrested all Dutch Jews who had become Christians. Teresa Benedicta and her sister Rosa, also a Catholic, died in a gas chamber in Auschwitz on August 9, 1942. Pope John Paul II beatified Teresa Benedicta of the Cross in 1987 and canonized her 12 years later. Reflection The writings of Edith Stein fill 17 volumes, many of which have been translated into English. A woman of integrity, she followed the truth wherever it led her. After becoming a Catholic, Edith continued to honor her mother's Jewish faith. Sister Josephine Koeppel, O.C.D., translator of several of Edith's books, sums up this saint with the phrase, “Learn to live at God's hands.” Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross is a Patron Saint of: Converts to ChristianityEurope Learn more about Saint Benedicta of the Cross!

Some Christians in Malaysia—ethnically Chinese or Indian believers—have freedom to practice their faith in Christ. But if an ethnic Malay person becomes a believer in Jesus, he or she will face intense Christian persecution. The Malaysian government sees ethnic Malay people as off limits for evangelism and holds them subject to Islamic Shariah law. “To be Malay is to be Muslim,” says Carter Gates, leader of VOM's international ministry work in Asia/Pacific. “Ethnic Malay's can't even [openly] say they are interested in learning more about Jesus.” As Carter meets with VOM's ministry partners, one shared key hindrances that keep Malays from following Christ and the questions he uses as he engages them in gospel conversation. One of those questions: are you ready to die for Jesus? Gates says he was challenged as he thought about evangelism in free nations versus in Malaysia, Laos, Vietnam, China and other restricted areas and hostile nations. “This pastor is in a context where he knows what [sacrifice] means,” Carter says. “We should consider these costs in America too.” We'll also share an update on the court case over the forced disappearance of Pastor Raymond Koh in 2017. A verdict is expected in the case in November. Listen to what Susanna Koh shared during her first visit with VOM Radio about how she and her family struggled after her husband's abduction. She also shares how the Lord helped her to forgive those who persecuted her husband. Please pray for truth to be revealed through this legal process and pray for the Koh family as they await the verdict. The VOM App for your smartphone or tablet will help you pray daily for persecuted Christians—in Iran and other nations—throughout the year, as well as provide free access to e-books, audiobooks, video content and feature films.

The church is designed to be a gospel-centered community where believers live in authentic, loving relationships rooted in humility, accountability, and discipleship. Rather than simply attending services, Christians are called to live out their faith daily in fellowship, service, and mutual support. The guys point out that even within the church, many still experience deep loneliness, often because church has become more about performance than connection. True accountability means being both known and loved—helping one another grow into Christlikeness with grace rather than judgment. The guys emphasize that discipleship is not just about sharing information but about sharing life, inviting others into your everyday rhythms and walking together in faith. A healthy biblical community practices redemptive discipline, offers forgiveness, and fosters unity among people who might otherwise be divided but are now bound together by Christ. When believers open their hearts and homes, speak into each other's lives, and share a common vision for reaching the lost, the church becomes the vibrant, transformative community it was always meant to be.Send us a textThanks for listening!
