Every one of us is living in a story but do we understand the story God is telling? From creation to fall, promise to redemption, mission to restoration, Scripture reveals one sweeping narrative that makes sense of our lives and our world. This week's message traces that story through the life of one of the best known characters in the Bible – David. David is not primarily an example to follow but an expectation of the Messiah – the Son of David. This message will help you see how the Son of David is a title of hope, victory, worship and grace. Learn how you can experience what the Descendent of David purchased.

Night 19 of our 31 Nights of Halloween marathon dives into Peter Cilella's Descendent (2025) — a haunting blend of alien abduction and domestic horror. Ross Marquand stars as a man losing his grip on reality after a mysterious encounter, in a film that turns fatherhood fears into full-on sci-fi dread.
A man named Jack accidentally fell off the edge of a steep cliff. On the way down he was able to grab ahold of a branch, which temporarily stopped his fall. He looked down and to his horror discovered that there were hundreds of feet between him and the bottom of the canyon. He couldnt hang onto the branch forever, and there was no way for him to climb up the steep wall of the cliff. So Jack began yelling for help, hoping that someone passing by would hear him. HELP! HELP! Is anyone up there? HELP! He yelled for a long time, but no one heard him. He was about to give up when he heard a voice. Jack, Jack. Can you hear me? Yes, yes! I can hear you. Im down here! I can see you, Jack. Are you all right? Yes, but who are you, and where are you? I am the Lord, Jack. Im everywhere. The Lord? You mean, GOD? Thats Me. God, please help me! I promise if, youll get me down from here, Ill stop sinning. Ill be a really good person. Ill serve You for the rest of my life. Easy on the promises, Jack. Lets get you off from there, then we can talk. Now, heres what I want you to do. Listen carefully. Ill do anything, Lord. Just tell me what to do. Okay. Let go of the branch. What? I said, let go of the branch. Just trust Me. Let go. There was a long silence. Finally Jack yelled, HELP! HELP! IS ANYONE ELSE UP THERE? What is faith? Here is the way the Bible defines it: Faith is the assurance of what we hope for and the certainty of what we do not see (Heb. 11:1; BSB). Abraham became known for that kind of faith, but it took a lifetime for him to get to the place of utter dependance upon God. I am not sure what Abrahams hopes and dreams were before he met God, but his home was in the City of Ur where Nanna, the Mesopotamian Moon god, was worshiped and his wife and family lived. Although childless, Abraham was prosperous, settled, and old. What he may or may not have known was that he was a descendant of Noah ten generations removed. When Abraham first heard God's calling, he was seventy-five years old, and his wife Sarah was sixty-five (see Gen. 12:4; 17:17). Despite their advanced age and the fact that they had no children, God gave Abraham a remarkable promise: I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed (Gen. 12:1-3). This was a profound and hopeful message, especially considering that Abrahams birth name was Abram, meaning Exalted Fathera title that must have felt ironic for a man with no children at seventy-five, and a wife (Sarai) ten years his junior. The name Abram brings to mind other individuals who have been given ironic or unfortunate names, such as the character mentioned in the following well-known song lyric: Well, my daddy left home when I was threeDidn't leave very much to my mom and meExcept this old guitar and an empty bottle of boozeNow I don't blame him 'cause he run and hidBut the meanest thing that my daddy ever didWas before he left, he went and named me Sue[1] God made three foundational promises to Abraham: first, He pledged to give him a land of his own; second, He vowed that Abraham would become the father of a vast multitude of descendants; and third, He assured that all nations would be blessed through him, signifying Gods plan of redemption. Trusting in these promises, Abraham left his home in Ur and journeyed to the land that God would reveal to him. The Promise (Gen. 17:1-9) Before we get to Genesis 17, I need to help you appreciate what Abraham (still Abram) was feeling and experiencing. When we come to Genesis 15, Abraham and Sarah are still childless about 10 years after they were promised a child! Abraham followed God out of obedience and brought his wife with him on the basis of a promise made by God that included many descendants, land, and a legacy that would bless multitudes in the future! At 85ish years old, God reassured Abraham (Abram), but what Gods reassurance was is up for debate based on the different ways Genesis 15:1 can be translated. Consider the ways NASB and the NKJV translated this verse: Do not fear, Abram, I am a shield to you; Your reward shall be very great. (NASB2020) Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward. (NKJV) So what is it? Based on Gods promise in Genesis 13:1-3 and how He will reiterate the promise later in Genesis 15, I think it is both. Here is one way you could paraphrase this verse: Because I am your reward, your reward will be great. Abraham was about ready to give up on believing the promise include a biological son, but then God swore on behalf of His own name that He would honor the promise He made to Abram and Sarah. God then entered into what is called a unilateral covenant of which He was obligated to honor that was not conditioned on anything that Abram did or did not do. God swore to Abraham (Abram), One who will come from your own body will be your heir (15:4b). What was Abrahams response? We are told in Genesis 15: Then he believed in the Lord; and He credited it to him as righteousness. Then about a year later, Sarah (still Sarai) developed a plan for her husband to get her maid, Hagar, pregnant; to have the heir God promised through her. After all, God said the promised heir would come from Abraham a year ago but did not seem to mention Sarai! So again, the forces of darkness were at work to prevent the Descendent promised to Adam and Eve, who would crush the head of the serpent from ever being born.[2] Hagar did get pregnant with Abrahams child, but all that did was bring more dysfunction into Abrahams home, among other problems. Abraham (still Abram) was 86 and Sarah (still Sarai) 76, with no child to show for the promise God made long ago. Now we come to the promise made yet again in Genesis 17, but this time it is 24 years since the couple left Ur and 13 years since the whole mess they create with Hagar and the birth of Ishmael. Before I go any further, let that settle in your heart and mind for a moment. For 24 years Abraham and Sarah waited, longed, hoped for the son that Almighty God promised them. Then 13 years later while Ishmael had reached the age of maturity and Abram resigned that there would be no heir by Ishmael, God appeared to Abraham (still Abram) and spoke yet again: I am God Almighty; Walk before Me, and be blameless. I will make My covenant between Me and you, and I will multiply you exceedingly (17:1-2). It is in this moment that God gave Abram the name Abraham which means father of a multitude. The blessing would not come through Ishmael, but through another son. So that there would be no room for confusion, God said to Abraham: As for your wife Sarai, you shall not call her by the name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. I will bless her, and indeed I will give you a son by her. Then I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples will come from her (17:1516). Abrahams response is understandable: Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, Will a child be born to a man a hundred years old? And will Sarah, who is ninety years old, give birth to a child? (v. 17). Nearly one year later, when Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah was 90 years old, she gave birth to Isaac, the son of promise (Gen. 21:1-8). The promise made to Adam and Eve, to Noah, and to Abraham would now come through Isaac. A promise that included land, descendants (a great multitude), and the blessing of the nations. Abraham received the promise when he was 75 and his wife past menopause which means to have a child together would have been a miracle at their respective ages, but for 90-year-old Sarah to carry the child of her 100-year-old husband was impossible! And that is the point, isnt it? There was nothing that Abraham or Sarah could do to make Gods promise possible, they could not make it happen sooner, they could not adjust Gods timing, all that they could do is trust and wait for God to do only what He could in His own timing. Their part in Gods promise was to trust, obey, and wait. The Promise of a Better Son (Gen. 22) We are not told how many years it was after Isaacs birth, but when we come to Genesis 22 we are told that God spoke to Abraham and said some of the most horrific words Abraham would ever hear: Then He said, Take now your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you (Gen. 22:2). Things were different this time; Abraham was different this time, for he had known God for many years since he was first called out of his homeland. The Bible tells us that that Abraham, ...got up early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him and his son Isaac; and he split wood for the burnt offering, and set out and went to the place of which God had told him (v. 3). There were no arguments, no debate, no protest Abraham simply obeyed because He believed if he followed through with the sacrifice of his own son; God was big enough to raise him up from death to life. This is why when Abraham took Isaac up the mountain, he told the young men he brought with him: Then Abraham said to his young men, Stay here with the donkey, and I and the boy will go over there; and we will worship and return to you (v. 5). Although the exact number of years between Isaacs birth and Gods command for Abraham to sacrifice his son is not specified in the text, we can make a reasonable estimate based on several clues about Isaacs age. First, Isaac was old enough to walk alongside his father for the entire three-day journey while Abraham, advanced in years, rode a donkey. Second, Isaac had the strength to carry the wood for the burnt offering up the rugged slope of Mount Moriah after days of travel. Third, Isaac was old enough to make a critical observation: Isaac spoke to his father Abraham and said, My father! And he said, Here I am, my son. And he said, Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering? (v. 7). These details suggest that Isaac was not a small child; my guess is that he was at least 13 years old. There is something else you should be aware of about Abraham and Isaacs journey and what was said to the young men just before Abraham and Isaac made their way up Mt. Moriah: The journey would take 3 days to get to the place of Isaacs sacrifice. Most scholars believe that Mt. Moriah was the site where Jerusalem would eventually be built. On the third day, Abraham said to the young men, Stay here with the donkey, and I and the boy will go over there; and we will worship and return to you (v. 5). In other words, Abraham believed that there would be a resurrection after he slaughtered his son... ON THE THIRD DAY! So what happened? Did Abraham follow through with what God commanded? Abraham had seen too much to doubt Gods ability and character to do what He had promised. God promised a child through whom would come a great multitude and the nations would be blessed. Here is what happened: Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. And Abraham reached out with his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, Abraham, Abraham! And he said, Here I am. He said, Do not reach out your hand against the boy, and do not do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me. Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by its horns; and Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering in the place of his son. Abraham would have followed through with killing his one and only son had God not stopped him because no longer did he put God in a box He was too big for any boxes because now He knew His God. What was Gods response? He simply reiterated His covenant promise: By Myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son, indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand, which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. And in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice (Gen. 22:16-18). Why did God command Abraham to sacrifice his son, and why did He refer to the child as, your son, your only son, whom you love, Isaac (v. 2)? The significance lies in the foreshadowing of a greater Son who would come from Isaacs lineageJesus Christ, Gods own Son. In other words, Isaacs story points forward to a future sacrifice on another mount known as Golgotha, God the Father would do what He prevented Abraham from doing: He would slaughter His only unique Son, whom He loved, for the sins of the multitudes to redeem a people for himself by the blood of the greater and more perfect Isaac! While the "lesser Isaac" was confused and unsure of the purpose for the wood he carried, the "greater Isaac," Jesus Christ, carried a wooden cross fully aware of why He was doing it and with unwavering commitment to die in our place as the Lamb of God. Where God provided a ram to spare Isaac, Jesus willingly became our substitute, submitting to the Father's will and taking on the penalty for our sins. Isaac had to be bound before being placed on the altar, but Jesus embraced the cross freely, allowing sinful men to bound Him to the cross on our behalf. Oh dear brothers and sisters, Jesus Christ is the true and better Isaac of whom the Scriptures testify: God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God (2 Cor. 5:21). [1] Johnny Cash,A Boy Named Sue,performed by Johnny Cash, written by Shel Silverstein, recorded at San Quentin State Prison, 24 Feb. 1969, released onAt San Quentin,Columbia Records, 1969. [2] Now Sarai, Abrams wife, had not borne him a child, but she had an Egyptian slave woman whose name was Hagar. So Sarai said to Abram, See now, the Lord has prevented me from bearing children. Please have relations with my slave woman; perhaps I will obtain children through her. And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai. (Gen. 16:12)

Descendant is an amazing film that is an incredibly intriguing dive into the complex emotions that come from fatherhood and the urge to both provide and protect one's growing family. Obviously, it's one of those movies that is full of question marks. The temptation here might be to interpret the plot a few different ways and then try to make sense of ending. Having to sit down and gain the insight from Alexandra about this movie was fun; asking her opinion about the film's plot and to see if she believes whether ‘Sean” was actually abducted by aliens or did he have a mental breakdown. I guess it was the director's intention to leave in the dark and come up with our own conclusion. Either way, this film is very confusing, but it also has it's high points. I definitely recommend watching this movie if you're into psychological horror. Descendent is now available to watch on Google Play Movies & TV, Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and Amazon Prime.

The Rustic Signal has been lit once more! After performing in front of the camera for RESOLUTION and THE ENDLESS, Peter Cilella now steps behind the camera for his feature film directorial debut DESCENDENT (2025)! We've been looking forward to more directorial work from Peter since we saw his short film OCCUPANT a few years back, so we were very excited to check this movie out. It was a blast to discuss, and we hope everyone enjoys our conversation. As usual, we get into spoilers pretty quickly in this review, so we absolutely encourage everyone to check out the movie first. It's currently available for purchase or rental on all major VOD platforms, and it absolutely deserves your support.

La Carol Ghargour és una pintora nascuda a Amman filla de pares palestins, que va residir 30 anys a Sitges. Tot i que mai ha estat a Jaffa, on la seva família havia gestionat un negoci d'exportació de taronges, té parens entre Jordània, el Líban i la diàspora europea. Avui veu entre l'horror i el pessimisme les imatges diàries de violència i destrucció que ens arriben de Gaza, sense veure clar el final. Els darrers mesos sí que ha percebut un increment de la consciència dels europeus cap al drama humà que es viu a Palestina. L'entrada L’horror a Palestina des dels ulls d’una descendent ha aparegut primer a Radio Maricel.

Actor/Filmmaker Peter Cilella (RESOLUTION, THE ENDLESS) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to discuss his career journey and the making of his feature directorial debut DESCENDENT (in theaters now as well as SVOD). From his struggles doing various jobs while getting his acting career off the ground… to writing and directing his own short films… to how working with Rustic Films (Benson/Moorhead & Lawson's production company) “set him up for success” with making his first feature DESCENDENT… to the writing of his deeply personal script during the pandemic… to how the project briefly got derailed for a full year and almost never happened… to how he created instant chemistry between his leads (Ross Marquand and Sarah Bolger)… to working with the Russells on the film's alien FX and much more! Dr. Arwen provides “Hollywood Therapy” for a patient looking to understand how to best support the films and the filmmakers who's work he enjoys and the boys reveal the final total raised in YORKIETHON IX!
In this episode, I chat with writer and director Peter Cilella to explore his haunting and intimate debut feature, Descendent—a fresh and emotionally charged take on the UFO abduction narrative. The film follows Sean Bruner (played by Ross Marquand) and his wife Andrea (Sarah Bulger) as they prepare for the arrival of their first child. But when Sean blacks out after witnessing a mysterious light during a late-night security shift, he awakens aboard an alien craft—and reality begins to fracture. Peter shares how Descendent uses science fiction not just to thrill, but to probe the psychological toll of trauma and the resilience of love. We discuss:

In this compelling episode, I had the honor to speak with Ms. Michelle Jones Galvin, where we discussed her ancestry as a descendant of Harriet Tubman. The conversation explores how preserving African American history through institutions like the Harriet Tubman Home and National Historical Park shapes national identity and informs our understanding of American history. Topics include the importance of local government involvement in historical preservation, the intersection of race and gender in museum storytelling, and the power of Tubman's legacy. Ms. Jones Galvin also reflects on how cultural institutions can support modern-day advocacy, entrepreneurship, and education, especially for women of color.Learn more by visiting www.mosesofherpeople.com
durée : 00:04:39 - Des mobilisations dans toute la France contre les coupes budgétaires dans le secteur de la culture - par : Louis-Valentin Lopez - Ils étaient plusieurs milliers à crier leur colère partout en France ce jeudi.

GESTIONNAIRES EN ACTION. Après avoir touché un sommet historique à près de 6150 points le 19 février dernier, l’indice boursier S&P 500 a reculé de 7% pour aller tester sa moyenne mobile de 200 jours, qui reflète sa tendance à moyen terme. Luc Girard, gestionnaire de portefeuille à Noël Girard Lehoux, Valeurs mobilières Desjardins, soutient que le recul prononcé de l’indice principal de la Bourse de New York n’est pas seulement attribuable à l’instabilité économique liée aux discussions sur les tarifs douaniers, bien qu'elles peuvent avoir servi d’élément déclencheur. «Les investisseurs redoutent toujours une escalade qui pourrait justement peser sur les bénéfices des sociétés et aussi ralentir par le fait même l'économie mondiale. Il faut toutefois aussi regarder un peu en arrière et constater que les marchés ont été quand même très solides depuis le creux d'octobre 2022. Le S&P 500 se négociait à ce moment à 3500 points. Alors, les indices ont été transportés par quoi? Par des solides résultats des entreprises, mais aussi une liquidité qui était quand même très forte dans les marchés», explique-t-il. Selon lui, après un tel rallye, il est normal qu’une correction survienne et que certains investisseurs préfèrent opter pour des «prises de profits». En ce qui concerne la moyenne mobile de 200 jours, Luc Girard précise que les analystes techniques s’en servent comme un point de repère qui peut déboucher sur deux options. «L’indice peut enfoncer sa moyenne mobile et envoyer le signal que le recul va se poursuivre ou s’en servir comme d’une résistance avant de repartir à la hausse», dit-il. Le Nasdaq est aussi passé cette semaine sous sa moyenne mobile de 200 jours pour la première fois en près de deux ans. Luc Girard ajoute que la croissance des bénéfices au quatrième trimestre n’a pas été uniforme dans tous les secteurs. Il juge qu’encore une fois, les grands gagnants ont été les titres technologiques portés par l'intelligence artificielle. «Le secteur de la consommation discrétionnaire a aussi brillé compte tenu de la baisse progressive de l'inflation et surtout d'un marché d'emploi qui est toujours robuste aux États-Unis, ce qui a permis de soutenir la consommation», raconte-t-il. À l’inverse, les titres du secteur de l’énergie ont encore peiné avec la faiblesse du prix du pétrole. La grande question, c’est à présent de tenter de prévoir dans quelle mesure la progression des bénéfices des entreprises enregistrée en 2024 peut se poursuivre cette année. D’après Luc Girard, trois éléments qui vont jouer un rôle clé, «tout va dépendre de la politique monétaire, de la résilience du consommateur américain et de l'environnement macroéconomique», croit-il. Il ajoute qu’une guerre commerciale peut toujours perturber les marchés boursiers à court terme, mais que les entreprises finissent par s’adapter et que les occasions restent présentes. Il recommande aux investisseurs de conserver un portefeuille diversifié, de se concentrer sur les entreprises de qualité et de garder une vision à long terme.Pour de l'information concernant l'utilisation de vos données personnelles - https://omnystudio.com/policies/listener/fr
BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS - Harlingen resident Federico “Fred” Garza delivered a handwritten note to Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador when he met him in Matamoros last Monday. Asked what he wrote in his note, Garza said: “I basically just thanked him for having made all the effort to finally recognize Catarino Garza, my great-great-uncle. I gave him a little note thanking him and telling him, it has taken 131 years but thanks to you, it happened.” President López Obrador, otherwise known as AMLO, was in Matamoros to commemorate one of his heroes, Catarino Erasmo Garza Rodriguez, a Mexican revolutionary who fought to overthrow Mexican dictator Porfirio Díaz. AMLO unveiled a monument to Catarino Garza, and also had the remains of Garza's body returned to Mexico from Panama. Catarino Garza, a former Mexican Consul in Missouri, was born in Matamoros on Nov. 25, 1859. He died in combat in Panama on March 8, 1895. He lived for a time in Brownsville. He is described in Wikipedia as a journalist, folk hero and revolutionary. Catarino Garza was Fred Garza's great-great-uncle. Catarino Garza's brother, Encarnación, was Fred Garza's great-grandfather. Catarino and Encarnación Garza fought together against Díaz's army and the Texas Rangers. The Rio Grande Guardian secured an exclusive audio interview with Fred Garza following the unveiling of a plaque for Catarino Garza last Wednesday at the old city cemetery in Brownsville. Mexico's Consul in Brownsville, Judith Arrieta Munguia, gave the keynote speech at the event. This was immediately followed by the showing of a documentary about Catarino Garza that had been commissioned by the Mexican government. Fred Garza is featured in the documentary at the Harlingen gravesite of his great-grandfather. The documentary was shown at the Brownsville Historical Museum.Editor's Note: Go to the Rio Grande Guardian website to read the full story.Go to www.riograndeguardian.com to read the latest border news stories and watch the latest news videos.

Two historical markers were unveiled to honor a cornerstone of the African American community in Varina that began to take root 10 years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Dozens gathered for the unveiling of the county historical markers on St. James Road in Eastern Henrico County on Saturday. One of the markers tells the story of the St. James School, which taught first through seventh grade to African American students, between 1910 and the mid-1950s. The building sat on 37 acres of land bought in 1873 by John and Polly Jeter. The couple saved one acre for a...Article LinkSupport the Show.

Elder Andy White preaches beginning from Matthew 1. Message delivered Sunday, December 10, 2023 at Mt Carmel Primitive Baptist Church, Bel Air, Maryland.
Andrew For America talks about being an aging punk rocker, and plays a clip of Henry Rollins saying why he doesn't want to be in a band again. Andrew also talks about stupid Americans, and reads the lyrics to the song ‘Merican by the band, The Descendent's. Andrew then talks about the benefits of cash vs digital currency, the shitty education system, the “singularity,” AGI (artificial general intelligence), and AI becoming self-aware. Andrew then ends by delivering a lament about how bad modern-day America has become, the country itself, as well as the people, and he urges his listeners to start taking personal responsibility and accountability for their actions. He plays clips from Tucker Carlson, Brad Lea, and others to help illustrate his point. Seek the truth…and the truth shall set you free. The song selections are the songs, "Living In Denial" and a cover of Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" by the band One Reason To Rise.

Starring Nicolas Cage, Diane Kruger, Justin Bartha and Sean Bean, the film weaves a ridiculous tale of hidden treasures, cryptic clues, and historical secrets.

If you're a fan of Issac Asimov, you probably like robots, the Three Laws of Robotics, and characters having long, expository conversations about interesting ideas. If that's true, then Robots and Empire is the book for you! It features, except for when the plot forces its way in, our two favorite robots, Daneel and Giskard, having long, expository conversations about the Three Laws of Robotics. Jon is quite outspoken about how those are his favorite bits. Dan and I are more apt to keep that revelation to ourselves. Robots and Empire lives in between the three Elijah Baley novels and the Foundation books. As a consequence, it never seems to get the attention of Asimov's other major novels; it's never, for example, been made into an official mass-market audiobook. But if you love the three Elijah Baley novels and the Foundation books and if you've bought into Asimov's project to link most of his work into a tremendous future history, Robots and Empire isn't just essential, it might even be the most important piece. And we're finally talking about it, starting, in this episode, with the first two chapters, "The Descendent" and "The Ancestor." You don't want to miss this one!

We then take a deep dive into Indigenous archaeology and how museum collections can be decolonized. We finish out by talking about ethnoarchaeology and experimental archaeology.
