On Terra Alpha, Helen A rules with a smile—and a gun—while her confectionary executioner, The Candy Man, dishes out death by fondant. Pete and Chris dive into this neon-noir dystopia, unpack the not-so-subtle Thatcher parallels, and debate whether Sylvester McCoy's most infamous outing is biting satire, glorious camp, or both.

I'm Kay Daigle of Beyond Ordinary Women Ministries. I'm here today with Nika Spaulding. Welcome, Nika. Nika >> Thanks, Kay. Kay >> And welcome to all of you out there. We're so glad that you joined us for this conversation. We're going to be talking about theology for everyday people. And let me tell you just a little bit about Nika, why she is an expert in theology. She has a DMin in New Testament. And she also has a master's of theology from DTS. And she is a storyteller and a theologian. And I've heard her described herself as actually a Bible nerd. Nika >> That's so true. Yeah. Kay >> So those are things that I know about Nika. And she has been working on a new project, Theology in 10. I'll let her tell you about that. But it is that theology for everyday people that she has come up with. And so I really want to talk about all those things. And I could but first, I really thought, particularly since we're talking about you as the theologian and theology, that maybe some people don't know anything really about you. So tell us a little bit about your background and why you got into theology in the first place. Nika >> Yeah, it's such a good question. So I didn't grow up in the church, so the fact that I'm like now a Doctor of Ministry in the New Testament is like more shocking maybe to me than anyone. So I actually have a science background. I grew up in a non-Christian home. My parents are believers now. I grew up in a great home. I loved my family. But theology was this really foreign thing to me! This like I knew that books existed. I knew that theology was like a discipline, like zoology, which is my bachelor's degree or like psychology or all of these things. But I got to college and I thought for sure I was going to be a doctor because I love science and I wanted to help people. But to this day, if I see blood or vomit, I get weak in the knees and I pass out like till this day. And I knew this even going into college. So. Oh, yeah, everybody with common sense kept going “Maybe you should pick a different career,” but I didn't have enough common sense at 18. So eventually I realized, Okay, I'm not going to make it through medical school. So now what? And that started me on a journey of trying to figure out what is it that God was calling me to do. At that point, I was walking with the Lord faithfully.

What does it mean to truly delight in God, beyond duty or obligation? In this final episode of the Safe in the Father's Heart series, Elizabeth and Kimberly explore the profound difference between serving God and delighting in Him—and how recognizing His delight in us transforms everything.Delighting in God, they explain, isn't about manufacturing happy feelings. "Delighting isn't something you've got to muster up." It's recognizing God's joy in you first, then responding. The hosts share practical ways to cultivate awareness of God's presence—from personalizing scripture promises to finding songs that speak His truth, from inviting Him into mundane tasks to simply making space to enjoy His company like you would a friend.The episode culminates with the powerful truth that our woundedness, when healed, becomes our greatest ministry tool. As "wounded healers," we can represent the Father's heart to others from a place of authenticity rather than obligation.Have you recognized God's delight in you today? How might that awareness change everything?

Stephanie Rousselle welcomes Elle Cardel, author of “She Delights”, a book about experiencing delight in God, even during seasons of suffering. Elle offers insight into cultivating deep faith, biblical joy, and intimacy with God. True delight in God is cultivated through deep engagement with Scripture, honest and continuous prayer, and a perspective of gratitude. The spiritual strength to endure hardship flows from knowing God delights in us, not for what we do, but because of Christ. The legacy the believer leaves is a testimony that “nothing satisfies like Jesus”—a lesson to pass on in both word and life. Elle Cardel emphasizes that shallow faith—one reliant on mere Sunday attendance, occasional Bible verses, or inspirational talks—cannot sustain us through life's inevitable hardships. True resilience in faith comes from immersing ourselves in God's Word, not just secondhand knowledge from others. Elle describes this as becoming “Bible geeks”—students eager to soak up the living and active Word of God so that, when suffering comes, our roots are deep, and we know God is with us. This depth equips us to see suffering as an environment where God delights to meet and transform us. Elle distinguishes joy from happiness. Happiness fluctuates with circumstances, whereas joy is a fruit of the Spirit and accessible to us at all times, especially when we choose it. Elle shares a deeply personal story about her daughter Selah's medical crisis, during which Elle discovered that grief and joy can coexist. Through vulnerability and seeking God in her private pain, Elle experienced God's palpable presence—realizing that delighting in God amid suffering is an act of worship, not the result of easy circumstances. Stephanie and Elle discuss the importance of savoring life—choosing to rejoice in what is, rather than fixating on what is not. They encourage us to approach life with the mindset of “savoring,” which, in French, connects closely to both delight and deliciousness. This means joy is something to be tasted and experienced, even in dark valleys, by recognizing God's blessings and presence in small, everyday moments. Spiritual disciplines such as regular Bible reading and prayer should be established before crisis hits. These practices are like the roots of the tree in Psalm 1, deep and sustaining even in seasons of drought. Elle acknowledges that motivation may wane, but real change comes from choosing to meet God in His Word, pushing past feelings of laziness or intimidation, and allowing scripture to transform us over time—just as food nourishes the body slowly. Elle describes prayer as both lifeblood and lifeline—a means of connecting honestly with God. Prayer need not be formal or perfect; it's about bringing every emotion and mundane task before God and seeking His presence in all aspects of life. She recommends practical habits like breath prayers and attaching prayer to daily activities, making prayer natural and constant. Elle stresses that all intimacy and delight with God are rooted not in performance, but in grace— through “imputed righteousness:” We are loved and delighted in by God because of what Jesus accomplished. Our spiritual effort doesn't earn His acceptance; instead, we respond in joyful obedience out of gratitude for His love. Our identity as beloved children of God is secure in Christ. Delighting in God is not a shallow cliché. It is a sustaining, daily posture, rooted in His delight in us and nourished by intentional habits, steadfast faith, and the overwhelming grace found in Jesus. MORE ABOUT ELLE CARDEL Hi! I'm Elle Cardel (yep, it rhymes!), a sinner saved by God's great redeeming love and grace, wife to my college sweetheart, Michael, and mother to our two little loves, Selah and Aidan! I was born and raised in the south and live in the heart of middle Tennessee with my family. (Although, some may find that hard to believe since I cannot stand the taste of sweet tea.)  I'm a full-time coffee-sipper, word-writer, friend-hugger, book-reader, shower-singer, and DIY-dreamer. Most importantly, I delight in encouraging women of faith to be proactive in their pursuit of knowing God and delighting in the truths of His Word. I do not take this responsibility God has entrusted to me lightly. Needless to say, I'm so glad you are here and hope you will choose to stick around! https://www.daughterofdelight.com/who-we-are  MORE ABOUT SHE DELIGHTS In a world that tempts us to chase after temporary joys and fleeting pleasures, the call to delight in the Lord remains firm and true. But what does it actually mean to delight in Him? And how can we cultivate a life that reflects that joy—even in the hardest seasons? She Delights: Cultivating a Heart That Reigns & Sustains is an invitation to experience the joy and strength found in abiding in Christ. Through biblical wisdom, personal reflections, and thought-provoking insights, this book will guide you toward a deeper understanding of what it means to live a life anchored in God's goodness. We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.

Details and registration here: https://www.gospelspice.com/prayer  There are a few things in our Christian life that we know we should do more, or at least better – and prayer just might top the list. Prayer is a mystery. Why would a conversation with a human have any influence on God's eternal, sovereign plan? It defies logic, and beckons love. How can God, the Almighty Lord of Hosts, be this close, this personal? It defies understanding, and beckons involvement. But, lack of time, inspiration, and discipline, combined with the ruthless tyranny of our busy lives, push prayer to the periphery, to the “one day I'll get to it” pile. And yet, we can excel at what we endeavor to undertake. So, why isn't prayer more of a spiritual priority? Could we develop a mindset around prayer that made it attractive, inspiring, even maybe delightful? What if we attuned our spiritual ears to listen to God, and our spiritual eyes to see His provision? As an unassuming student, I'm going to humbly offer to share the little I have learned from others about the joy of prayer. I will give us theology, practical tips, and useful resources, sharing what works for me as we, together, learn to pray. If you find prayer intimidating, or if your lack of prayer makes you feel guilty or “less than,” then this is the place for you! If you have been a student of prayer for many years, this is the place for you too! If you have breath in your lungs, then prayer can become one of the deepest joys of your day. Don't miss out! A PERSPECTIVE ABOUT PRAYER To pray is to believe that God not only hears, but that He responds. It is to stand in the gap for a broken world, wielding the authority of Christ, empowered by the Spirit, and trusting in the goodness of the Father. The question is not whether prayer works, but whether we are willing to pray the kinds of prayers that invite God's Kingdom into the darkest places of the earth—and of our own hearts. We may never fully understand the mechanics of prayer, or how it intersects with God's sovereignty, but we are not called to understand everything. We are called to be faithful. And faithfulness means showing up—in prayer, in persistence, in expectation. So today, let us pray not only for the comfort of our hearts, but for the transformation of the world. Let us take our place as image-bearers, co-laborers, and co-heirs. Let us believe that God is still listening—and still acting. Because He is. There's only one way to find out what might happen when we truly pray like this. Let's begin. THE MINDSET BEHIND THIS COURSE Before we begin, let me tell you the obvious: I don't really know how to pray. I'm a humble student and absolute beginner at the holy endeavor that is prayer. So, this course isn't really about what I've learned, or any wisdom I might have gathered. But, I've sat at the feet of many prayer warriors over the decades, through books and teachings. So, I'll share what I learned from them. Humility is going to be our primary heart posture! With each lesson, I will offer a few thoughts, practices, and ideas – with much humility, and not taking myself too seriously. I will also share her favorite books and resources about prayer. FInally, I will introduce you to some of the most influential prayer warriors of our history as the Body of Christ. Most importantly, I will invite YOU to pray! Learning to pray comes from praying. Our humble ambition is to inspire you to pray, and to give you a few tips on how to do that. Then, it's up to you! Prayer is a lifelong endeavor. Let's make it delightful together! So, let's get started. Support us on Gospel Spice, PayPal and Venmo!

Delighting In A Kingdom Of Joy How To Find & Keep Your Joy No Matter What Series: Delighting In God's Kingdom Psalm 30:5

Delighting in God is the essence of the Christian life, but cannot be assumed. If we are not careful, we will replace delight with duty, rejoicing with works, and exultation with exhaustion. This series has aimed to refocus our lives on finding our greatest delight in the Person of God. It is something which every Christian needs regular reminders of and every unbeliever regular invitation to.

Today on Karl and Crew, we discussed the importance of separating ourselves from bad influences. As followers of Christ, it’s crucial to surround ourselves with a community of fellow Christ-followers, as being surrounded by a worldly community can significantly influence our walk with Christ. We see this affirmed in 1 Kings 12, where we see how a young king, Rehboam, took the advice of bad influencers, and it led to destruction. We then turned to the phone lines to hear stories about good and bad influences from our listeners. Then we had Dr. Geoff and Cyd Holsclaws join us to talk about the intersection of faith, neuroscience, and spiritual formation.

THE WAIT 8/17/25 Susan Allen 2 weeks ago 1 Tim 6:6 godliness with contentment being great gain Ps 37 Trusting the Lord, Delighting in Him, He would give us desires, then committing our way to the Lord and HE would bring it to pass, and then Resting in the Lord, and wait patiently, not fretting […]

Today's Promise: Psalm 37:4 At first glance, this promise seems like a heavenly credit card with no credit limit. You pick out what you want, and God has to give it to you, right? God has to provide you with everything you want. It says so right here. Before you get too carried away, there is a condition to this promise. You must delight in the Lord. If you have ever been in love, you've tasted what it is like to delight in someone. Delighting in the Lord is focusing your heart and life around Him. When you do so, He gives you the desires of your heart.

There is a thread of truth running through your entire Bible that is easily missed. God desires that we delight in Him. From the first days in Genesis to the last days described in the Revelation, God is inviting the people He made to enjoy Him forever. As the greatest good in the Universe, this makes sense. True joy has its source in God alone. David knew this and writes in this Psalm of how to find that happiness in God even in the worst of circumstances.

What if the first step in prayer is opening your Bible? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Psalm 1 to show how prayer begins with delight in God's word.

Matthew 25:14-301. God invests His grace, love, and power in us.2. Delighting in God will mean investing His gifts.3. Overprotection isn't investment; it's fear.4. The abundant life in Jesus will invest and multiply for the glory of God.5. Your choice today isn't whether to invest or not. It's whether you will live or just exist.

Delighting in the Fear of the LORD, Proverbs 1:1-7

Sometimes, the hardest part of studying the Bible is just getting started.

Discover how God's Word transforms lives and why delighting in Scripture is the key to true blessing. In this message, Daniel Morell from JAARS (JUNGLE AVIATION AND RELAY SERVICE) shares inspiring stories from the mission field—where pilots risk challenging flights to bring the Bible to remote tribes—and reminds us of the life-changing power of God's Word. Drawing from Psalm 1, 2 Timothy 3:16-17, and Hebrews 4:12, Daniel explores how Scripture creates, communicates, corrects, and transforms us, equipping us for every good work. You'll hear incredible testimony of how hearing the Word for the first time brought a remote village to tears, showing that God's Word is alive and active today. Topics covered in this study: • Why delighting in the Word leads to true blessing. • The story of JAARS Aviation and reaching the “last mile” for the gospel. • Seven ways the Word of God changes our lives. • Real-life examples of God's power in remote tribes. • How we can live out our faith and share God's Word where we are.

What if God Said Yes? | Summer of Psalms From Psalm 37, we're challenged to consider what it looks like to delight in the Lord, commit our ways to Him, and live out our purpose with bold trust. This message offers five practical principles for walking in spiritual alignment and reminds us that real transformation begins when we say yes to God's power, not just His blessings. Key Insights: 1. Delighting in the Lord aligns your desires with God's, shaping your prayers into His purpose. 2. True purpose is not stumbled into, it's committed to and entrusted to God. 3. Passion driven by the Holy Spirit remains steady even when circumstances are unstable. 4. Saying yes to God requires surrender, not just intention. 5. Your spiritual alignment always precedes your clarity around calling and purpose. Key Scripture: Psalms 37 (https://www.bible.com/bible/59/PSA.37.ESV) Speaker: Chip Paul Series: Summer of Psalms Location: Burnt Hickory Baptist Church (https://maps.app.goo.gl/hazkR3omjk9xvxZc7) Connect with us: ° Watch this sermon on YouTube (https://youtu.be/ab7pqxx4Gzo) ° Follow us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/bhbchome) ° Follow us on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/burnthickorybaptist/) ° Visit our website (https://www.burnthickory.com/)

Followers of Jesus are called to be people who delight in the truth. God calls his followers to speak truthfully, not deceitfully or destructively. And his followers are always to use their words to demonstrate love for their neighbor. Exodus 20:16
