The Lord is risen indeed, Alleluia!

ALLELUIA With faithfulness we respond to the good news: We acknowledge Christ as our saviour and accept with gratitude, that we are forgiven for all wrong doings, past and present. To honour the gift of forgiveness, we release our burden of guilt and rise up to live in the glory of God forever more. Blessed be God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Blessed be God forever.

Send us a textJoin 5-Minute Parenting Host Karen Ferguson as she discusses putting the focus of Earth Month back where it belongs, onto our Creator God! The world tries to convince our children that mother earth is in charge of this world, and that we must help save it. As parents and grandparents we can be intentional to take the focus off the fictional character of mother earth, and put it right where it belongs: on God our Creator. We can have fun celebrating Earth Day, but from a Christian perspective. Rather than remain silent on the issue and leave the lessons to the classroom, or social media thread, let's use this secular holiday as a teachable moment to point our children to the beauty and intentional design of God's Creation

In today's Daily Devotion, Pastor Balla reflects on Job 38:4–7 (ESV) where God asks, “Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?” This powerful Scripture devotion draws us into the majesty and wisdom of our Creator God, reminding us of His sovereignty, intentional design, and joy in creation. When suffering clouds our view, God reorients us with a vision of His eternal power. This Bible-based Lutheran devotion speaks to those seeking comfort, hope, and truth amidst life's chaos. God doesn't answer Job with explanations, but with perspective—and that perspective changes everything. Join us for faithful daily encouragement, LCMS-rooted teaching, and a Christ-centered worldview grounded in God's Word.

Tonight we have guest speaker Nathan Veall from Grace Church Leatherhead preaching from Psalm 24:1-10. In this passage we see the Psalmist focussing solely on God's character - we see him that He is the Creator God who made and owns everything, that He alone is holy, and that the only appropriate response to this saviour-king is to worship him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSzHEEHJOP4

"Listening is everything. Without listening, there's no music, no art, no understanding—just noise.” (Charlie Peacock, from the episode) Acclaimed musician, producer, podcaster, and author Charlie Peacock joins Mark Labberton to reflect on music, art, attention, listening, faith, and spirituality. From his groundbreaking work in pop music production (e.g., Amy Grant, Switchfoot, the Civil Wars), to his deep engagement with faith and mentorship, Charlie explores how attention shapes creativity, why making space for beauty is a spiritual discipline, and how a life of music can be an act of service. Through stories of artistic risk, collaboration, and calling, this conversation explores the rhythms of a flourishing life. In this episode, they discuss: Charlie's new memoir, Roots and Rhythm: A Life In Music The communal nature of making and producing music The unsung music heroes from Charlie's life Non-neutrality and the interdependence of all things Hearing and visualizing music The intersection of creativity, spirituality, and paying attention, How listening transforms both art and relationships, Life lessons from jazz, pop, and worship music production, And the role of both sound and silence in artistic and spiritual life. About Charlie Peacock Charlie Peacock is a six-time Grammy Award–winning musician and producer, having produced Amy Grant, Switchfoot, the Civil Wars, and many more artists. A three-time recipient of the Gospel Music Association's Producer of the Year Award, he's named by Billboard's Encyclopedia of Record Producers as one of the five hundred most important producers in popular music history. His latest book is Roots and Rhythm: A Life In Music, and you can listen to his podcast, Music & Meaning. For more information visit charliepeacock.com. Episode Highlights "If you're not paying attention, you're missing the song that's already being sung around you." "A mentor doesn't hand you a map; they help you learn how to navigate." "Faith and art are both about trust—trusting the unseen, the unfinished, and the uncertain." "The hardest and best lesson for any artist: keep showing up and doing the work." "Music isn't just a product—it's a means of connection, healing, and worship." Show Notes Charlie Peacock, Roots & Rhythm Music and community The unsung music heroes from Charlie's life Non-neutrality and the interdependence of all things Hearing and visualizing music Michael Polanyi tacit understandings Re-creation of the old into the dramatically new—e.g., Notre Dame Cathedral The joy of generational community Jazz: spirit, skill, and ability “That's what I love about jazz improvisation. There was nothing and then there was something. Over and over again. … When you have those people in a room making music … it's hard to go to sleep at night.” “I have been pursued by a loving Creator … God-haunted since I was a little boy.” “I wanted to know everything. … how, why, what, when … everything.” “Never once was there a moment when I was out of God's grip.” Charlie Peacock's Secret of Time: “God gives you time to be saved.” John Coltrane's spiritual journey “250 people a night…” “I took the F-word out of two songs, and stopped taking 10% from the bar tab.” Hans Rookmaaker Inklings Time in England and the Netherlands, including time at L'Abri (run by Francis and Edith Schaeffer) “An artist and a follower of Jesus, and how those two could be congruent …” “Our death is life to life. The kingdom has already begun. We have been living it. And we will continue to live it.” “Playing with the entire history of music in your brain.” The Civil Wars: “We re-presented hyper-dynamics. … A lot of people have never heard that before. … It invites you in and lets you sit back.” (e.g., pianissimo to forte) Over-compressed music. “That lean in to the music is a part of your participation. … I'm committed to this music.” “I produced music in the ‘80s. I know how to ruin a record. … Big hair and big snare. … But really it had to do with technology.” Music in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s Neil Postman: “To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” “When I use this tool I have to make sure it doesn't use me.” “My subtext is that this is a book about epistemology. … To say, ‘This is how I know what I know.' It came through God, people, and place.” A worker-bee in the music business “Like a house with a party going on” Vocation, epistemology, and how an artists become who they are Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

Many biology textbooks claim that the appendix, a vestigial organ, is a leftover evolutionary part of the human body. In Episode 3 of the “Unpacking Darwinian Evolution” podcast series, former evolutionist turned Christian Michael Lane provides evidence from various research articles to show how the appendix is in fact helpful for the body given by God, not an evolutionary leftover which came by chance. The appendix is part of our immune system, and it possesses lymphoid tissue, playing a role in antibody production. Join Michael in the E4F studio and examine how the appendix in humans is not a digestive organ, but an important construct in a wonderful design by our Creator God.Reference this lesson and find out more here: https://evidence4faith.org/portfolio/unpacking-darwinian-evolution/CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.

E4F is on mission to move people from shallow convictions and unbelief to deep faith in God through the study of history, science, the Bible, and logic.

For the last several centuries, a troubling philosophical question has haunted Christianity: If God is all good and all-powerful, why is there so much evil in the world? What's fascinating is that this question is never posed in quite this way in the Scriptures. How could Jesus and his followers expect the world to be filled with pain and still believe in a completely loving Creator God? Because they knew something we've forgotten: that God is like an empowering boss.

After the Fall, in the Garden of Eden, all of mankind became sinners and were reduced to living in the dark world of sin empowered by Satan and His demonic hosts. Mankind had fallen from his graceful fellowship with God and all had now become enslaved. However, there were some faithful people such as Enoch and Noah, from the first world, before the Flood, who were still able to have fellowship, with their Creator God. Mankind, as a whole, was in cruel bondage to sin and its cruel ways until the advent of Jesus Christ, into man's fallen world. When Jesus died on the Cross and then rose again, mans' penalty for sin, was broken. All who believed in Him were now set free and were able to be resurrected, with Him and their sins forgiven. They were born again children, of God, who, from the moment they believed, were then able to have fellowship and also able to live with God, for eternity.

We conclude our roundtable discussion with Dr. Alphonzo Monzo, ND, and David Beverley, Sr., began on EP 121, discussing the technology infrastructure being built for the Beast System.  We talk about foglets, otherwise known as Utility Fog, Satan's attempt to delay Christ's return, and the season we are in, prior to a veritable explosion of chaos yet to unfold, for us to build, get our house in order, and get right with Creator God, Jesus Christ.

In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Podcast, J. Warner Wallace talks about his new book, God's Crime Scene, as he examines the first important piece of evidence in the universe: the origin of all space, time and matter from nothing. Does Big Bang Cosmology (the Standard Cosmological Model) point most reasonably to a Creator God?

Christ is unique. He's the only mediator between God and man and the incomparable Saviour. He alone can save from sin, and reconcile us to our Creator God. He alone made such unique claims, and gave the compelling evidence to show their validity.

Pastor Jack Morris leads a study on how our Creator God sees each of us through eyes of mercy and love. One powerful example of this is found in John 9, where Jesus heals a blind mansomeone overlooked and devalued by society. Yet, where others saw insignificance, Jesus saw a person worthy of compassion and restoration. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1528/29

ALLELUIA With faithfulness we respond to the good news: We acknowledge Christ as our saviour and accept with gratitude, that we are forgiven for all wrong doings, past and present.

Amen.   3 The opening Canticle Oh come let us sing out to the Lord. let us shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his face with thanksgiving. And cry out to him joyfully in psalms. For the Lord is a great God. and a great king above all gods. In his hands are the depths of the earth. and the peaks of the mountains are his also.

A pause is observed after each. Psalm   5 At the end of the (last) pause there may follow Lord God, whose blessed Son rose in triumph and set us free: grant us the fullness of life he promised us, that through the Holy Spirit our hearts may possess him whom our eyes cannot see, the same Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.   6 One or two Readings from the Bible as appointed.   OT Reading Genesis 45. 3-15   3Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?” But his brothers could not answer him, so dismayed were they at his presence. 4Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come closer to me.” And they came closer. He said, “I am your brother, Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt. 5And now do not be distressed, or angry with yourselves, because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. 6For the famine has been in the land these two years; and there are five more years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest. 7God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant on earth, and to keep alive for you many survivors. 8So it was not you who sent me here, but God; he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt. 9Hurry and go up to my father and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph, God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not delay. 10You shall settle in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children's children, as well as your flocks, your herds, and all that you have. 11I will provide for you there—since there are five more years of famine to come—so that you and your household, and all that you have, will not come to poverty.' 12And now your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my own mouth that speaks to you. 13You must tell my father how greatly I am honored in Egypt, and all that you have seen. Hurry and bring my father down here.” 14Then he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, while Benjamin wept upon his neck. 15And he kissed all his brothers and wept upon them; and after that his brothers talked with him. The reading is followed by Hear the word of the LORD. Thanks be to God.   NT Reading – Luke 6. 27-38 27“But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. 29If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt. 30Give to everyone who begs from you; and if anyone takes away your goods, do not ask for them again. 31Do to others as you would have them do to you. 32“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 35But love your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked. 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. 37“Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven; 38give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.”   The reading is followed by Hear the message of Christ. Thanks be to God.   7 The Canticle, The Song of Zechariah (Benedictus) Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel:  who has come to his people and set them free.  The Lord has raised up for us a mighty Saviour:  born of the house of his servant David.  Through the holy prophets, God promised of old:  to save us from our enemies, from the hands of  all who hate us,  To show mercy to our forebears:  and to remember his holy covenant.  This was the oath God swore to our father Abraham:  to set us free from the hands of our enemies,  Free to worship him without fear:  holy and righteous before him, all the days of our life.  And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High:  for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,  To give his people knowledge of salvation:  by the forgiveness of their sins.  In the tender compassion of our God:  the dawn from on high shall break upon us,  To shine on those who dwell in darkness  and the shadow of death:  and to guide our feet into the way of peace.  Luke 1.68–79      8 The Apostles creed I believe in God, the Father almighty,       creator of heaven and earth.   I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord,       who was conceived by the Holy Spirit       born of the virgin Mary.       suffered under Pontius Pilate,       was crucified, died, and was buried;       he descended to the dead.       On the third day he rose from the dead.       He ascended into heaven       and is seated at the right hand of the Father.       From there he will come to judge  the living and the dead.   I believe in the Holy Spirit,       the holy catholic church,       the communion of saints,       the forgiveness of sins,       the resurrection of the body,       and the life everlasting.

Send us a textRevelation 14:6-7 - "Then I saw another angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and language and people. And he said with a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come, and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water.”There is a sect that seeks to say there is a gospel in the first century but they have another gospel for the current generation. They build their view of how they read into and interpert the so called "Three Angels Messages."However, we must remain very vigilant against any other so called gospel!The Apostle Paul says in Galatians 1:6-8, "I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed."The first angel's message is a call to worship the true and living Creator God. It's wording is like Nehemiah 9:5-7, “Stand up and bless Yahweh your God from everlasting to everlasting! Blessed be your glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise!  You are Yahweh, even you alone. You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their army, the earth and all things that are on it, the seas and all that is in them, and you preserve them all. The army of heaven worships you.  You are Yahweh, the God who chose Abram, brought him out of Ur of the Chaldees, gave him the name of Abraham."The one eternal gospel is the message of Jesus -  his person and saving acts in his death, burial and resurrection of Jesus for us sinners.  Mark 16: 15 says, "And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.In Luke 24:44-49 we read, "Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” Then he opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead,  and that repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.”The one eternal gospel is declared in 1 Corinthians 15:1-11Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twBible Insights with Wayne ConradContact: 8441 Hunnicut Rd Dallas, Texas 75228email: Att.

Hunter brings the character of Sosthenes to discuss with Jesse in a reminder about how God redeems our past as well.--Passages explored: Acts 18; 1 Corinthians 1; Romans 8:28 --contact@parableministries.comhttps://www.parableministries.comhttps://www.instagram.com/parable_ministries/--Music created by Chad HoffmanArtwork created by Anthony Kuenzi--Jesse Turkington is the executive director of Parable Ministries and has been a Bible teacher for the last 9 years. When Jesse was just finishing high school, he started a little Bible study at his parent's house. Little did he know, this Bible study would change the direction of his life. He fell in love with the richness of the Bible and he wanted to pursue serious study. About 10 years later, Jesse still carries that passion for the Bible and from this passion was born Parable Ministries - a Bible teaching resource. Jesse believes that the Bible is a life changing book and that it can transform the way we view the world. The Bible presents a Creator God who desires intimate fellowship with us. His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts. Through study and thoughtful meditation, the Bible works to untangle our situational worldview and elevate our hopes and desires - we are encouraged to think on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Jesse is all about this book and he wants to share it with whoever will listen.-Hunter serves on the board of Parable Ministries and as podcast manager. He grew up in Montana and now serves the Church in Albany Oregon where he works as a youth and young adults pastor. He and his wife Ana stay busy with two kids. Hunter loves studying the Bible and communicating it in a way which encourages further exploration of others. Hunter enjoys listening and making podcasts for others to enjoy.

Do you ever feel unclear or unconnected in life? Maybe it's fear over a big decision. Maybe it's just general loneliness and lack of purpose. That is not the desire of the Creator God for you! The problem is, there are a lot of competing voices vying for your attention and to have the right to declare their truths over you. Only one person has the market cornered on absolute Truth though. His name is Jesus and His Word, the Bible, is a gateway to get to know the real thing. Only then can we learn to suss out the counterfeits, leaving them behind in favor of the voice of God.

In this powerful message, we explore the profound truth that all life is valued in the hand of the Potter - our Creator God. Through the metaphor of a potter and clay from Jeremiah 18, we're reminded that each of us is intentionally designed by God, with no life being a mistake or accident. Even when we're marred by sin, God doesn't give up on us but continues to reshape and remake us. This truth applies not only to our individual lives but also to the sanctity of all human life, from conception to natural death. As we reflect on this, we're challenged to see ourselves and others through God's eyes, recognizing the inherent worth in every person as bearers of God's image. How might this perspective transform our self-view and our treatment of others?

Text:  Genesis 1:1   Introduction: Why Study Genesis? It sets the foundation for the rest of the Bible. It gives us the purpose of God for mankind. It describes the origin and effects of sin. It anticipates God's answer to our problem of sin, a seed coming through the line of Abraham. It describes the origin of the nation of Israel and the Promised Land. It reveals the character of God to us.   The Historical Background of Genesis Genesis is a book of beginnings, and the first of the five books of the Pentateuch. Genesis was penned by Moses while the children of Israel were in the wilderness.   The Thematic Structure of Genesis Genesis 1-11 sets the foundation in broad terms of how the world was made and the fall of man. (wide angle lens) Genesis 12-50 focuses on the family of Abraham and how God's promise will be fulfilled to send redemption to His people. (zoom lens)   The Creator God of Genesis (Genesis 1:1) Our God is the mighty and everlasting Creator and Sustainer of all things, and we are accountable to Him as His creation. Our response to God should be one of worship and submission, where He is exalted.

Louis Pasteur's legacy is a powerful example of how faith and science can coexist harmoniously. In a time when evolutionary ideas were gaining prominence, Pasteur's unwavering belief in the Creator God led him to challenge the idea that life could arise from non-living material. His work not only disproved spontaneous generation but also laid the foundation for important medical advancements, saving countless lives through his discoveries related to germs and vaccines.

The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. — Revelation 21:24 In Genesis 1, God's first creation is light. Amazingly this first light appears in the darkness before the sun, moon, and stars are even created. Today's passage echoes Genesis 1: “The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.” God's glory is the source of light, and Jesus is the vessel through which God's light shines in all its brilliance! This passage about God's new creation can make us feel like it's the first day of creation all over again, a fresh start. But that brings up a question: What if we sin again? We're still human. Won't we make a mess of this new creation just as we have done with the current one? As if anticipating that question, God shows John that the nature of human relationships, of kings and kingdoms, will be transformed. “The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.” Through Jesus Christ, God is bringing about a new creation in which the power struggle to control resources and the distrust and hatred between people groups no longer exists. The whole of this new creation delights in God's goodness and lives together as stewards of God's creation! What a day that will be! Creator God, thank you for making the future of this peaceable kingdom secure in Jesus Christ. As we celebrate Jesus' birth, teach us also to look forward to his coming kingdom with joy-filled confidence. Amen.

Today, the Free Range Preacher on Prayer podcast welcomes several newcomers. Thank you, Slovakia, Panama, Romania, Morocco, Bulgaria, and Iceland! Was Voltaire correct when he said that man had paid God back by creating him in our image? I took that for granted even in my Christian life until Dr. Amanda Podany described in detail (in the series "Ancient Mesopotamia" from Great Courses Plus) the gods of Ancient Mesopotamia. The Creator God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is nothing remotely like those gods. So a careful reading of the Bible shows Voltaire to be mistaken. The great "I AM" in His holiness is profoundly incomprehensible to His creation. Learn about the incomprehensibility of God in today's episode. Our So What? Our inability to apprehend our Creator validates our faith in His promises and His testimony from the Bible that He is indeed the great "I M." Brethren, let's pray for one another.

An update from Rob Van Wey on his missionary work with Soldiers in North Carolina.   "For God so loved the world."                 One of the most familiar passages out of the Christian Bible, this passage is always appropriate!  In creation, "For God so loved the world."  In good times and bad, "For God so loved the world."  In life and death, "For God so loved the world."  In all situations, the message of God's eternal love for us all can bring comfort, guidance, and joy.  God loves us all!                 Especially in times like the Christmas season, is the message ever appropriate.  A man and his very pregnant wife are looking for a place to stay in a strange land.  No room in the in; a bed in a backroom stall; a piercing cry of a newborn boy in the middle of a moonlit night – God loves and has brought about a miracle!  Not just the miracle of birth, of course – this birth was special!  This baby was "the Christ Child."  God, 'in the flesh;' God was moving to save man from his own sin, and self-destructive ways.  In the Christ-Child the eternal Creator came as an innocent child, putting to the test the phrase, "For God so loved the world."                 The Creator-God, in the flesh, has come to earth!  The Creator has come to re-create, to give new life – to save!                 This is God's promise:  "He was wounded and crushed for our sin.  He was beaten that we might have peace.  He was whipped, and we were healed." Isaiah 53: Jesus came and lived, preached, suffered, and died so that we might live.  From that first creation story, this was God's plan!                 This is Jesus' testimony:  "I am the living bread that came down out of heaven.  If anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever."  John 6   Jesus made the fantastic claim – "I who speak to you am he."  He was more than just a preacher or prophet, as many have said – He was, and is, the Savior of all!                 This is the witness of scripture:  "Once for all time, he took blood into that most Holy Place, but not the blood of goats and calves.  He took his own blood, and with it, he secured our salvation forever." Hebrews 9, the blood of Jesus, shed on the cross, was God's plan;  this is how he would cleanse us from our sin!  No magic trick, of course – this was an act of a loving God, giving himself to save the humanity that he had created and strayed from Him.    "For God so loved the world, He gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."  This is the story 'behind' the Christmas story and the reason for it all.  God's loves us, and that is the reason for the wonderful celebration!   Your support is invaluable in spreading the message of our ministry.

For many Christians, the idea of a future resurrection has little significance in their thinking, expectation and hope. Instead, the focus is often on the destination of one's soul after death. And where some thought is given to the future resurrection, it usually focuses on a new body free from mortality, disease and dysfunction. But the Scriptures insist that the resurrection at Christ's return, not the soul's destiny at death, is the focal matter in Christian hope. And yet not in the individualistic sense of getting a new body, but as this general resurrection event will initiate the creation's renewal and "summing up" in Christ so that the Creator-God will at last be "all in all."

Today we're featuring two courageous frontline scientists dedicated to the idea that the science of physics points to a Creator God. They point to the fact that our universe is so finely tuned and so intricate in its design that the only rational view that accounts for everything we can know is that a good, all-knowing, and all-powerful God exists.

We often wonder what difference our life is making, or if it is making a difference at all. In such a vast world it is easy to feel insignificant. BUT…the Creator God has planned, purposed, and placed Every Man to make an impact for His Kingdom. The true question is not if my life is having an impact, but rather what kind of impact is my life having? As God begins to change us, to transform us He always does so with a purpose in mind. We are changed, to be used to change others. What can our God do, through One Changed Man? In this series we'll study the lives of 4 men whom God changed, and then used powerfully to change many others.

Transcript:Hello, this is Pastor Don of Christ Redeemer Church. Welcome to The Kingdom Perspective. We must always be careful not to be gullible—accepting everything that comes to us in the name of “spiritual truth”. Rather, the Bible calls us to investigate whether something is truly from God. And how do we do that? Let me give you a three question test: First, are you merely being told what you want to hear? The Bible warns of teachers “tickling” people's ears. However, the truth is often hard. Therefore, we should be skeptical of those suggesting otherwise. Remember that line from “The Princess Bride”: “Life is pain…. Anyone who says differently is selling you something.”  Second question: Is it true to the whole of Scripture? It does not matter that someone has a Bible verse as proof. The devil came at Jesus with Bible verses. The question is: How does this verse fit with the whole of Scripture? The Bible is a big book, and so, any part must be understood in terms of the whole. A text without context is pretext. Final question: Does it make much of the person and work of Jesus, the Creator God who came to save us? Is Jesus the center and orienting principle of all else? As the Apostle Paul put it in his letter to the Colossians: See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ. For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form, and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority… (Colossians 2:8-10) Jesus and His work for us is always the bottom line. Something to think about from The Kingdom Perspective. “Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving. See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.”~ Colossians 2:6-10 (ESV)

To support Creation Talk and our ministry (mentioned at the end) visit: creation.com/donate What worldview best explains the human capacity to think and make rational inferences? According to the ‘argument from reason’, this is strong evidence for the existence of God, especially the Creator God of the Bible. If humans were created in God’s image and God designed our minds, it is unsurprising that they work and can perform impressive feats. But if atheism were true and humans were merely accidental byproducts of evolution, what is the likelihood such a blind process would produce creatures who can reason properly? To delve more deeply into this topic, Dawn Blount interviews Keaton Halley, an apologist with Creation Ministries International. They discuss rationality, consciousness, natural selection, randomness, and evidence for the soul. At the end of the day, it’s clear that reason requires God. As C.S. Lewis once noted, the human ability to think and reason is the “cardinal difficulty with naturalism”. ✍️ Links and Show Notes Monkey minds: How evolution undercuts reason and science Can evolution produce rational minds?

Jesse brings the Pharisees to talk about keeping the law and allowing tradition to take control.--Passages explored: 1 Samuel 21-22; Psalm 52; John 3 --contact@parableministries.comhttps://www.parableministries.comhttps://www.instagram.com/parable_ministries/--Music created by Chad HoffmanArtwork created by Anthony Kuenzi--Jesse Turkington is the executive director of Parable Ministries and has been a Bible teacher for the last 9 years. When Jesse was just finishing high school, he started a little Bible study at his parent's house. Little did he know, this Bible study would change the direction of his life. He fell in love with the richness of the Bible and he wanted to pursue serious study. About 10 years later, Jesse still carries that passion for the Bible and from this passion was born Parable Ministries - a Bible teaching resource. Jesse believes that the Bible is a life changing book and that it can transform the way we view the world. The Bible presents a Creator God who desires intimate fellowship with us. His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts. Through study and thoughtful meditation, the Bible works to untangle our situational worldview and elevate our hopes and desires - we are encouraged to think on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Jesse is all about this book and he wants to share it with whoever will listen.-Hunter serves on the board of Parable Ministries and as podcast manager. He grew up in Montana and now serves the Church in Albany Oregon where he works as a youth and young adults pastor. He and his wife Ana stay busy with two kids. Hunter loves studying the Bible and communicating it in a way which encourages further exploration of others. Hunter enjoys listening and making podcasts for others to enjoy.

We are back for season 5! Author and artist Ruth Chou Simons joins Heather and Keane for this first episode of the season focused on finding our home in Christ, wherever He leads us. “I care about words as art.” “‘The heaven declare the glory of the Lord,' the Bible says. Ultimately, we are not just believing that God is on high and He is sovereign and He's the ruler of all and Creator God; we don't just think that and believe it, we experience it when we see the sunrise and the sunset.” “The more we know that God is God and we are not, the more we start really being able to worship Him for who He is.” “When you make your home with God, you'll never be far from home.” “Sometimes we associate home with location or environment or kind of furniture or the smells… Nothing can truly satisfy the way my relationship with Jesus can.” “If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.” C.S. Lewis “God offers to all of us a sense of belonging, home, and absolute security, regardless of where you live… It doesn't matter where God takes you, if He's the one that you're walking with, you actually have access to your true home.” “The first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day is to have my soul happy in the Lord.” George Mueller “Everything that is scary out there, I'm sheltered from ultimately by the blood of Christ, but also I have safety and comfort under the shelter of God's wing. And that shelter is true home.” “Throughout Scripture, when we see God pursuing His people, when we're being offered a relationship with Jesus, it's always through presence.” “He is our shepherd as in He is caring for us, He holds us, we are close to Him.” Hebrews 11:16 Learn more about Ruth Chou Simons here and find her new book here!

The more science learns about the world and universe we live in, the more we see evidence of a Creator God. 

In the third episode of the Abundantly More series, we talk about who God is and why it is important for us to remember that he is not a small God. He is the Creator-God, who made the universe and knows the stars by name. He knows us intimately too, more than we know ourselves. Knowing who God is can change our Christian walk.
