1 Thessalonians 4 and 5 assures believers that death is not the end but the doorway to eternal life with Christ. This hope calls us to live in readiness, encouraging one another with the promise of His return, and anchoring our lives in the unshakable truth of the gospel.

E lei pine ona tupu lea, ae vavaeeseina lona ulu (tulou) ( Luka 9;7-9). Le au pele e, talu ai e lē mafai ona e taofia mea tutupu e faavaivai loto, e mafai ona e filifili pe faapefea ona e tali atu i nei faafitauli. Faapei o Tavita, e mafai ona e fa'amalosia oe lava i le Alii; e pei ona vaaia i le tauloto mai le Tusi Paia o le asō. E mafaia e le Atua ona leoleo ia te outou ina nei pauū (Iuta 1;24). E mafaia fo'i e Ia ona avatu ia te oe se feliuaina mata'utia, peita'i e tatau ona e faamoemoe ia te Ia. E lava ma totoe lona mafai, e leoleo ai ia te oe mai so'ose tulaga e ono faavaivai ai lou loto.

In this podcast, Pastor Justin delivers a message on the importance and power of the hope that we have and must put into practice in order to see God's promises come to pass.Support the show

In many spiritual and religious traditions, the concept of an "enemy" or adversary exists. This entity, often referred to as Satan or the devil, is believed to tempt and distract humans from their spiritual paths and God's will. Here are some common ways this "enemy" is believed to distract us:   Temptation: The enemy presents alluring temptations like greed, lust, pride, and envy, enticing us to stray from our moral compass and pursue selfish desires.Doubt and Fear: The enemy can instill doubts and fears, leading to anxiety, insecurity, and a lack of faith. This can hinder our spiritual growth and prevent us from fulfilling our God-given purpose.   Distraction and Procrastination: The enemy can distract us with trivial matters, procrastination, and a constant sense of busyness, preventing us from focusing on our spiritual development and serving others.   Discouragement and Defeatism: The enemy can discourage us through setbacks, failures, and negative thoughts, leading to feelings of hopelessness and despair.   Division and Discord: The enemy can sow seeds of discord among individuals and communities, fostering conflict, hatred, and division.  Let's dive in!

Does your son struggle in math class? Did he miss the big play on the sports field that would have won the game?Failures and fiascos will trip up your son. You wish he'd only see success, but that's unrealistic. Even when we try our very best, disappointment and discouragement can still strike. And when it does, your son may experience frustration and exasperation. These are normal human emotions, but we don't have to give in to them. Instead, remind your son that failures don't define who he is. If he has accepted Christ as his savior, he is a child of the King. Because of that, your son is of incredible worth to God. And that's way more important than any school grade or sports event.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.

July 27, 2025 - Sunday AM Bible Class   In this enlightening episode, we delve into the essence of encouragement as we navigate through the final weeks of our Christian Expectation class. With the marriage seminar featuring John and Carla Moore on the horizon, we focus on being proactive encouragers amidst various challenges. Discouragement is a common experience, stemming from self-doubt, unmet expectations, or failures in life. Through biblical examples and real-life stories, we reflect on how both rebuke and encouragement play crucial roles in fostering a supportive church community. Exploring the diverse needs of different groups within our congregation, we emphasize the importance of nurturing the young, honoring the elderly, supporting the sick, and welcoming new and visiting members. A particular highlight is the value of reaching out to those often overlooked, ensuring that their quiet contributions do not go unnoticed. Join us as we uncover how to maintain a balanced approach between addressing issues and lifting each other up, ultimately creating a thriving environment where love, grace, and fellowship are at the forefront.   Duration 46:48

Relying on godly counsel, establishing goals, and having a clear plan will encourage your spirit and guide you toward victory.

Learn from the journey of Israel, the leadership of Joshua, and the faith of Caleb as we discover what it means to walk in courage, obedience, and surrender to God's voice. Every believer faces highs and lows in their walk with God, but discouragement doesn't have to derail your destiny. In this powerful message, we explore how to respond when God calls you higher, how to face the giants standing between you and the promise, and why the voice of discouragement must be silenced. Whether you're in a season of waiting, warfare, or wondering what's next—this message will strengthen your heart and realign your focus. It's time to stop seeing giants and start seeing the promise! Key Scriptures (NKJV): Psalm 27:14 Exodus 3:7–8 Numbers 13:1–3 Numbers 13:25–33 Numbers 14:1–9 Joshua 1:1–9 Joshua 5:13–15 Ezekiel 37:1–3

On this week's Keepin It Real, Cam Marston got some blowback from a social media post this week. He asks us, "How do you deal with haters?" ----- One year ago, I set a goal to paddle board across Mobile Bay. I completed that goal in May. The second part of the goal was to write about the challenge and be paid to have it printed. That was completed last week when the story was carried in Mobile Bay Magazine. I will get a small payment in a week or so. A year's planning, researching, note-taking, exercising, preparing and lots of paddling later, the goal was entirely met. Pretty cool. Yesterday, Mobile Bay magazine made posts about my paddle with links taking readers to the story and I received a good bit of social media attention as a result.  The vast majority of the social media comments were very positive and congratulatory. Today's commentary is about the ones that weren't. No sooner had the magazine posted the story than a handful of people jumped in to denigrate my effort. Some said that my paddle across the Bay wasn't that hard and that they could do it. Essentially, my effort wasn't worthy of the attention I was receiving. Others said they know people who swim across the bay and that my paddle, again, wasn't much of an accomplishment. And let me say again, the vast majority of comments were very positive, but what makes people want to attack other's accomplishments? What triggers haters? There's a type of person that simply can't let others be acknowledged without debasing their achievements. Unfortunately, they're everywhere. They lurk in shadows waiting to leap out and knock down someone's efforts. Is it possible to scroll through social media and NOT attack other's success? Certainly. But some can't. Or won't. What is it about these people? Remarkably, I sat this morning after reading some of these comments and began questioning if my paddle board crossing was truly that hard? Maybe they were right? Did I overblow the effort seeking some sort of vainglory? It didn't take long for me to answer No. All aspects of this goal were a difficult challenge and when I finished crossing the Bay the pain and exhaustion I felt were very real. A superhero athlete could have done it easily. Me? It was a true struggle. Discouragement is a powerful drug. It's meant to stoke the ego of the pusher. And the ego, unchecked, always compares, elevates and separates. It says I've judged you, I'm different and I'm better. It's the motive of the hater. I knew none of the people who tried to devalue my effort. I think none of them knew me. Anonymity is key to haters. If there is a message here, it's one you and I have already heard before - it's to keep achieving. Keep making things happen. Set goals, do bold and audacious things. Let the haters try to knock you down but don't flinch. Don't even turn your head. Accept helpful criticism but ignore the rest. Because when they're judging, evaluating and separating they're dying inside due to their personal weakness. We'll never be rid of them, but we can devalue them.  And maybe, in time, like gnats and mosquitos, they'll go away. I'm Cam Marston and I'm just trying to keep it real.
