In this episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank reconnects with Atlanta rapper Akbar V for a candid second take after their original conversation became more heated than intended. The two clear the air over past social media comments, a missed booking, and relationships within Atlanta’s entertainment scene before Akbar opens up about the different sides of her personality—Valerie, Akbar, and Joan. She reflects on growing up between Carver Homes and Cleveland Avenue, navigating her mother’s addiction, entering the streets at a young age, and cycling through jail, group homes, and survival mode. Akbar also addresses how being outspoken has fueled internet backlash and industry tension, while acknowledging that controversy can sometimes overshadow her talent and music career. The conversation becomes a deeper examination of healing, accountability, faith, and personal growth as Bank challenges Akbar to step away from online conflict, release music consistently, and consider therapy as another tool for moving forward. Akbar discusses forgiveness, fasting, spirituality, marriage struggles, loyalty, and her desire for counseling, while reflecting on public conflicts involving Cardi B and Latto and the realities of navigating relationships in the music industry. Closing on the future, Akbar shares plans for new music and Blueprint Atlanta, celebrates milestones in her children’s lives, and considers what it will take to move beyond survival, protect her peace, and allow her purpose and artistry to speak louder than the drama.

We delve into the story of Saul's disobedience and its dire consequences. Saul, the first king of Israel, fails to follow God's explicit command to destroy the Amalekites completely, sparing their king and the best livestock. Samuel confronts Saul, emphasizing that obedience to God is more important than sacrifices. Saul's failure leads to God's rejection of him as king.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

We delve into the story of Saul's disobedience and its consequences for his kingship over Israel. Initially appointed as king and leading Israel to victory, Saul's failure to obey God's commands ultimately leads to his rejection as king. We explore the critical moment when Saul, out of fear and impatience, offers burnt offerings instead of waiting for the prophet Samuel, resulting in a severe rebuke and the loss of his kingdom. Contrasting Saul's disobedience, we highlight his son Jonathan's faith and bravery in launching a successful surprise attack against the Philistines, showcasing God's power to save by many or by few.Support the showRead along with us in the Bible Brief App!

Guest speaker Dr. Esau McCaulley joins us at our Santa Monica location for a powerful message from Jonah, inviting us to consider what it looks like to follow God even when it's difficult. Through Jonah's story, Esau challenged us to trust God's leading, receive His grace, and extend that same grace to others—even those we may struggle to love. Ultimately, we're reminded that the relentless love of God is never meant to be kept to ourselves, but shared with the world.

Money does not just matter for personal discipleship, it also matters for our common mission as the church. Disobedient or poorly taught disciples in this area produce a church that is starved in its ability to do it's spiritual mission by a lack of physical resources. But faithful and obedient discipleship fuels the mission of the church, enhances its impact and in the process shines a light to the world that is not just radically counter cultural but compellingly beautiful as it showcases the generous heart of God himself.This week Andrew continues our Open Hands series, preaching from Luke 16:1-9Faithful giving is a tangible expression of trust in God and participation in His work. It has a heavenly dividendSermon by Andrew Grills

Tonight we see the disobedience of Jonah again as he is now raging at the compassion of the Lord towards the people of Nineveh. This passage reveals to us three things about Jonah: His Unnecessary anger, Undeservingly appointment, and Unmistakable application. Yet we are reminded that the story of Jonah is ultimately all about Jesus. Despite Jonah's attitude, we see the graciousness of God that He is not willing that any should perish but that all come to repentance. We are reminded as Christians that the Good News of the Gospel is for every generation and we should not hide it, hinder it or hold it back from those who need to hear it. Instead, we are to be devoted disciples and share the Good News!

This week and for the next few weeks we take a short break from our Genesis series to spend four weeks thinking about the Scriptural principles for generosity. Money does not just matter for personal discipleship, it also matters for our common mission as the church. Disobedient or poorly taught disciples in this area produce a church that is starved in its ability to do it's spiritual mission by a lack of physical resources. But faithful and obedient discipleship fuels the mission of the church, enhances its impact and in the process shines a light to the world that is not just radically counter cultural but compellingly beautiful as it showcases the generous heart of God himself.This week Andrew preaches from Matthew 25:14-30. We are not owners; we are stewards. Generosity begins with recognising God's total ownership.Sermon by Andrew Grills

One of the most dangerous spiritual conditions is not open rebellion.It's almost obedience.In First Samuel 15, King Saul appears to obey God's command… but he quietly keeps what he wants.From the outside, it looks like obedience.But when the prophet Samuel arrives, he asks a devastating question:“What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears?”This sermon explores:• Why partial obedience is still disobedience• How we rationalize compromise• Why religious activity cannot replace obedience• The tragic downfall of King SaulGod does not desire empty sacrifice.He desires surrendered hearts.

In this episode we talk about how we carry so many things that we end up being exhausted and how that unbalance can lead to disobedience.

Episode 108 -  The 1st part is in English, and the 2nd part is in Malayalam starting 13:50 mark.  When sin increases and the wrath of God  is imminent,  instead of destroying them quickly, God warns through someone.  Throughout the Bible we see God speaking through several prophets.  The people of Ninevah were not afraid of God, and they immersed in sin.  God wanted to save the people of Ninevah from sin and destruction.  God chose Jonah to convey the message of repentance and salvation.  Jonah's message saved the city and its people.  But the character of Jonah is not pleasing to God in many ways.  His disobedience and selfishness caused problems to himself and others. My name...

1 Samuel 13 (Ch. 1-12)Pastor Brian Moffatt

I. What did every Christian used to be before God saved them? We were dead, disobedient, dominated and doomed. vv1-3. II. What did God do for every believer? He made us alive, vv4-5. III. How did God make us alive? He made us alive together with Christ.  

Tens of thousands of 'van lifers' and 'grey nomads' drive around Australia each year. But the iconic road trip has a surprising origin story involving a pair of missionaries, a retired butcher and a gun-slinging mother-daughter duo.David Riley is a pastor and father who was on a lap around Australia with his wife and three children when he heard about the surprising origin story of this great road trip.In 1925, two young men set off from Perth to Darwin in a tiny French car nicknamed 'Bubsie'.They were running an errand for their Church – instructed to set up a Seventh-Day Adventist Missionary outpost in the Northern Territory, then to turn around and come back home.Nevill Westwood and Greg Davies battled flat tires, evil cows, losing their way, leaky fuel tanks, dangerous river crossings and a falling out along the way.With the help of First Nations people and station owners they met along the way, they made it to Darwin.But when they got to Darwin, they just kept going, entering into a race with a retired butcher and a gun-slinging mother-daughter duo to become the first vehicle to circumnavigate Australia.For David, researching and writing the story down became a powerful way to preserve the memories of his own family's lap around Australia, after receiving terrible news.Bubsie and The Boys: The First Journey Around Australia by Car is published by SIGNS.Early next year, Bubsie's sister car, a 102-year-old Citroën, will drive around Australia for the 100th anniversary of the original journey. The trip will be raising money for Canteen and Brain Child. Information about the trip will be online early next year.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris, executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores travel, road trips, Australian history, modern history, motoring history, great global road trips, grey nomads, caravanning, van life, historical records, religion, church, cancer, losing a daughter, brain cancer, grief, driving, driving Western Australia, madman's track, white history, black history.

In this sermon, Dave Patchin preaches from Nehemiah 5 as we look at how we can be doing things for God while still being disobedient to him.

Amy is joined by activists from I-WILL, a group dedicated to sharing the stories of Iranian women living under a patriarchal regime. These courageous women let us know how the situation in Iran has developed since the Women Life Freedom movement began, tell us about the incredible ways everyday women are resisting oppression, and let us know what listeners can do to help.Donate to Breaking Down PatriarchyInspired by the “Woman Life Freedom” uprising which started in Iran against the Islamic Republic regime in September of 2022 following the brutal killing of an innocent Kurdish Iranian girl, Mahsa Jina Amini by government agents, the Iranian Women Institute for Life and Liberty (I-WILL) seeks to provide a platform to raise awareness about, and support, women who have been victims of gender apartheid and discrimination. Through advocacy, education, and community engagement, we aspire to foster a society where immigrant women are empowered to contribute fully, enriching the fabric of our global community with their strength and resilience.We're honored to be joined by I-WILL activists Saghi, Naseem, Reina, and Kelly.

Disobedient Generations and Lost Opportunities - Matthew 21:33-465 G Living – Do everything you do…For the Glory of GodFor the Good of your fellow manTo get the Gospel to non-believers For the Growth of your fellow ChristiansWith a Grateful heartToday we are going to see Jesus tell another parable story that rebuked the unrepentant generation that failed to give Jesus the glory due His name.Matthew 21:33-46 They would have instantly recognized the vineyard as a reference to Israel, and the Master of the house as God Himself (Isaiah 5:1-7).God has every right to expect all of us to give Him the glory He deserves, and be both faithful and fruitful stewards of what He Has entrusted to us.In Jesus' story the servants are obviously the prophets that God had sent to His people, many of whom were mistreated by people who didn't want to hear and obey the messages God sent through the prophets.Long ago at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed the Heir of all things, through whom also He created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature, and He upholds the universe by the word of His power. After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. - Hebrews 1:1-3Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush (daka-H1792) Him; He has put Him to grief; When His soul makes an offering for guilt, He shall see His offspring; He shall prolong His days; the will of the LORD shall prosper in His hand. Out of the anguish of His soul He shall see and be satisfied; by His knowledge shall the Righteous One, My Servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and He shall bear their iniquities. - Isaiah 53:10-11It is so sad that that generation missed Jesus their cornerstone. It is sadder still that for 2,000 years Jews have still been looking for the Messiah who has already come. It will be equally sad if today you despise Jesus and build on another foundation (Acts 4:5-12; 1 Peter 2:4-10)That generation lost the opportunity for national Israel, but the day will come when they Israel will turn to Jesus in mass and be fully restored. In the meantime the gospel goes forth to everyone, Jew and Gentile alike (Acts 1:6-8).For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite (daka-H1792) and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite (daka-H1792). - Isa. 57:15The religious leaders were supposed to bring God glory through their work in Israel. We are to bring God glory through our work in the church and in the world's “seven mountains of cultural influence” – family, church, government, education, media, arts/entertainment, and business.Jesus has delegated to us His power of attorney to represent Him while He is gone! How do you know you are doing it well? If you are doing what Jesus would do it if He was here, you are being faithful and fruitful!

For our final day this week, we are going to read a tough passage, but we'll also turn it around and end on a bright spot. Paul shared these words with Timothy in his second letter, chapter 3, verses 1-5:You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!When you heard these words, did it sound like something from today's news feed? Love only themselves and their money? Boastful? Proud? Scoffing at God? Disobedient? Ungrateful? Nothing is sacred? This is exactly why God's Word is timeless and always current.Again we see how the love self, pride, pleasure and the pursuit of wealth is associated with a lack of godly character. The last verse even says the religious people will reject God's power.Now, let's take Paul's words, and as what would be in line with many of his other passages such as 1 Corinthians 13, for example, turn the phrases around to encourage ourselves to follow God and pursue Him, not the things of this world, to see our money merely as a means, not an end.For people must love God and not their money. They must not boast and be proud, or scoff at God, be disobedient to their parents, yet be grateful. Consider everything sacred. Be loving and forgiving; never slander others and always have self-control. Never be cruel. Love what is good. Never betray friends, be reckless, puffed up with pride, or love pleasure rather than God. Don't act religious, and reject the power that can make us godly. Hold strong to people like that!Pray with me: “Lord Jesus, thank You that You provide us with all that is good in this world and allow us the ability to stay away from what is harmful to us. There is always that choice. Thank You that You died to give us that choice. Help me to follow You and make my money a means, not an end. As above, so below.”

Disobedient Children and Second Chances - Matthew 21:28-32All the signs in first century Israel pointed to who Jesus was, but were ignored by those who said they did everything they did for God – we must not make the same mistake today!Matthew 21:28-32Last week Jesus showed us that one of the most effective ways to answer questions is with questions that make people think. Another great way to communicate truth is to tell stories that relate to the situation being asked about – Jesus shows us that this week!Two responses to Jesus in the parable of the two sons - V. 28-32The word for changed his mind in verse 29 is metamelomai (G3308). It's a compound of two words – the first being “after/afterward,” and the second being “care about.” It can be translated “Change of mind” or “REGRET.” Not too far down the Greek word tree we find metanoeo (G3340), which can be translated “change of mind” or “REPENT.”How can Jesus make the statement in verse 32, that sinful rebels will get into heaven before the religious leaders?Because the sinners far from God had recognized their lack of righteousness and need of the Savior, while the religious were trusting in their own righteousness and rejecting their Messiah.What was John the Baptist's “way of righteousness?”1. The call to repent of sinful self-focus and turn to God (Matt. 3:2).In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” - Matt. 3:22. The call to turn to Jesus who takes away our sin (John 1:29).The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” - John 1:293. The call as a disciple to have Jesus increase in your life (John 3:30).He (Jesus) must increase, but I must decrease. - John 3:304. The call to bring forth fruit in keeping with repentance (Luke 3:8a).“Bear fruits in keeping with repentance.” - Luke 3:8a“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is in Heaven. On that day many will say to Me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in Your name, and do mighty works in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness.' - Matthew 7:21-23

Saul, the first king of Israel, fails to follow God's explicit command to destroy the Amalekites completely, sparing their king and the best livestock. Samuel confronts Saul, emphasizing that obedience to God is more important than sacrifices.

Initially appointed as king and leading Israel to victory, Saul's failure to obey God's commands ultimately leads to his rejection as king.
