IronMen of God - July 2023 Coffee Speaker: Doug Hurley Topic: Solomon: How God Shows Men the True Path to Happiness
Retired astronaut Colonel Doug Hurley takes center stage alongside Sandy Winnefeld and former colleague Dr. Sandra Magnus, marking the monumental 40th episode of The Adrenaline Zone podcast. Together, they embark on an enthralling voyage, tracing Col. Hurley's awe-inspiring journey from upstate New York to the vast expanse of space. As a recipient of the esteemed Congressional Space Medal of Honor, Col. Hurley paints a vivid and personal portrait of his spaceflight experiences, unraveling the captivating challenges, triumphs, and rewards that shaped his remarkable career. With our hosts, he delves into the rigorous training program that hones the skills and fortitude required of an astronaut, from mastering orbital mechanics to honing public speaking and photography skills. Recounting the exhilarating moments of launch and landing, he shares his unique insights on flying the space shuttle, commanding the first crewed commercial orbital spacecraft for SpaceX, and the cultural differences that exist between NASA and SpaceX. He also emphasizes the profound impact visual documentation has on scientific research and the exploration of the cosmos, and shares his thoughts on the future of manned spaceflight. Filled with personal anecdotes and unique perspectives, today's 40th installment of The Adrenaline Zone podcast offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the wonders of space exploration that will leave you with a profound appreciation for the wonders of the universe and the heroic individuals who help us all learn more about it. The Finer Details of this Episode: Col. Hurley's journey to becoming an astronaut The rigorous training program and diverse skill set required for astronauts The importance of capturing imagery during the fly around of the International Space Station Flying the space shuttle and maneuvering in space Personal anecdotes and insights from Col. Hurley's spaceflight experiences The differences between the Space Shuttle and Crewed SpaceX missions Challenges and lessons learned during the development of the Crewed SpaceX mission The adaptation process and experiences during a two-month stay on the International Space Station (ISS) The reentry and landing procedures of Dragon spacecraft Lunar exploration as a means to prepare for future human missions to Mars Quotes: "You can do anything else, but just don't hit the space station." "You're hand flying it. The shuttle had the capability built in for it to land automatically, but there was never a lot of confidence in the system." "It's kind of like going supersonic at 20,000 feet. Isn't that exciting?” "I think it would be fair to say that the culture of SpaceX in 2015, 2016 probably was not a lot different than NASA during the '60s as we were doing the Apollo program. You had a bunch of incredibly talented, smart, but very young, relatively inexperienced space people, but working on a common goal and almost with fanaticism, frankly." "If we think as humanity we want to go to Mars and put people on Mars… we've got to run it all like a dress rehearsal on the Moon because then we're only two days away, not six months away from getting something to the crew."

Did you watch the Netflix documentary Return to Space? Then you will remember one of the stars of the show, former NASA astronaut Doug Hurley! Ilham sits down with Doug to discuss his amazing flight in the SpaceX Dragon rocket, what sparked his passion for flight, the launch of Artemis I, when we'll see humans on Mars, and, most importantly, what businesses can learn from space exploration.While at NASA Doug went to space three times: In 2009, Doug piloted the NASA Space Shuttle Endeavour, and in 2011 he piloted the Space Shuttle Atlantis, which was the final flight of NASA's Space Shuttle program. But that wasn't Doug's final flight: in 2020, he returned to space aboard the SpaceX Dragon rocket. After clocking more than 92 days in space, Doug retired from NASA and now works for Northrop Grumman, which built the two towering motors that powered NASA's Artemis rocket to the moon. In January 2023, Doug was awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor by Vice President Kamala Harris for his significant contributions to American space programs.Time stamps1: 46 - Spark for passion for flight3:24 - Experience going to space4: 59 - The SpaceX Dragon mission9: 32 - Focus on safety12:50 - Friendship with fellow astronaut Bob Behnken16:38 - SpaceX ascent and re-entry/splash down19:46 - Bringing hope during covid-1923:05 - Launch of Artemis I27:32 - When will we put humans on Mars?31:26 - Work at Northrop Grumman36:27 - Diversity, equity and inclusion in space exploration39:25 - What can businesses learn from space exploration?41:56 - Devotion to family For additional details about the podcast, show notes, and access to resources mentioned during the show, please visit https://www.solvay.com/podcast

An Ennis Auctioneer claims the high number of landlords leaving the market is contributing to the pension 'time bomb'. The latest figures from the Residential Tenancies Board show a 58% increase in notices to quit in the first six months of this year. The board says the figures are driven by landlords selling properties and leaving the market. Diarmuid McMahon from Sherry Fitzgerald McMahon and Doug Hurley from DNG O'Sullivan Hurley auctioneers have been speaking on Clare FM's Morning Focus about the matter.

Return to Space is an American documentary film made for Netflix and directed by Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi. Its story follows Elon Musk's and SpaceX engineers' two-decade mission to send NASA astronauts back to the International Space Station and revolutionize space travel.●Surprisingly good.●The storytelling, ●editing and flashbacks are fantastic.I am no expert, but I love to look at stars, moon, clouds and sunset. I have never had a conversation involve Elon Musk and thought this document about him. But it wasn't. With some appearances here and there, Elon Musk appears to be very passionate, funny, charming and driven. I also like how they allow the scientists and other astronauts to share their thoughts, families rather touching.well done. I learn a lot. I feel smarter too. HahahTruly heart touching and overwhelming to watch spaceX achieve this kind of milestone and gaining a great success in the history of human space flight.i really hope one day flying through space would be accessible to everyone,which is still a dream of many space lovers.Amazing! If all the wealthy people would aim for perfectionism, would have passion for science, respect for humankind, and hunger for knowledge...●Just goosebumps every minute, ●it has emotions, ●mystery and everything packed in for a nerd of space.Some cool facts and theory ▪︎The Space Shuttle program finished with its last mission, STS-135 flown by Atlantis, in July 2011, retiring the final Shuttle in the fleet. The Space Shuttle program formally ended on August 31, 2011.▪︎While reentering Earth's atmosphere, Columbia broke apart, killing the entire crew. All of these factors — high costs, slow turnaround, few customers, and a vehicle (and agency) that had major safety problemsAstronauts often say the reasons humans haven't returned to the lunar surface are budgetary and political hurdles, not scientific or technical challenges. ▪︎Private companies like Blue Origin and SpaceX may be the first entities to return people to the moon▪︎SpaceX was formed by entrepreneur Elon Musk in the hopes of revolutionizing the aerospace industry and making affordable spaceflight a reality. The company entered the arena with the Falcon 1 rocket, a two-stage liquid-fueled craft designed to send small satellites into orbit.▪︎SpaceX scored its first big headline in 2010, when it became the first private company to launch a payload into orbit and return it to Earth intact—something only government agencies like NASA or Russia's Roscosmos had done before. Its upright landing and recovery of the first stage of the Falcon 9 rocket on Dec.▪︎Since 2010, SpaceX has been flying Falcon 9, a rocket with a reusable booster that has become one of the most dominant launch vehicles in global spaceflight. Starship is the next generation, designed as a gigantic and fully reusable rocket system that could cost less and fly more often▪︎Blue Origin has been flight testing the New Shepard rocket and its redundant safety systems since 2012. The program has had 18 successful consecutive missions including three successful escape tests, showing the crew escape system can activate safely in any phase of flight.▪︎Douglas Gerald Hurley is an American engineer, former Marine Corps pilot and former NASA astronaut. He piloted space shuttle missions STS-127 and STS-135, the final flight of the space shuttle program▪︎ Karen LuJean Nyberg is an American mechanical engineer and retired NASA astronaut.

Life is a journey of discovery. A rainbow of challenges stirring your heart, tantalizing your mind, engaging your body, and thrilling your spirit. As much as challenges scar us, they also show that we are alive! Challenges give purpose to us every day. Desire to be supported and encourage by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT Initially, I know what you are thinking --- If I had no challenges, that would be great. It would make life easier. But would it make life easier? Possibly at the beginning. However, the journey of discovery would lessen causing you to become settled and bored with where you are in life. There would be no incentive to be your best selfie or stretch yourself in knowledge, thoughts, and actions. Discovery is the process of finding something unexpectedly or in the course of a search. A journey of discovery is ignited by the challenges in your every day. My kitty cat, Snickers, thinks she is the master of all cats. She is very smart. But even she runs into challenges. Look at SpaceX and the splashdown of the "Endeavour", named by astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken on Sunday afternoon. A mission of "testing"; a test flight. A journey of discovery will throw twists and turns, loops, and dips. In all of it though, you must own your own actions. The K.I.S.S. ~ Own your own actions! We would love life to be so easy where everything is spelled out. Little to no thought would make decision-making super easy. But life isn't about easy. It's about the simple strategies, consistency, and perseverance that keeps you on the journey of discovery. Life is full of smiles and frowns. But how you see it determines how you show up for the rainbows of challenges. So how do you own your own actions? Be true to your circumstances. Don't sugar coat everything. You know that song Just a Spoonful of Sugar helps the medicine go down. If you are not real with where you are and what is happening, other mistakes or situations could rock you more. Ownership doesn't mean defeat. Failure isn't the end of the world. It's just a hiccup in your journey of discovery. If you fall short or there's a failure, you still have the opportunity for one more step. "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." Redirect your actions. Take A.I.M.! The cool thing about living life is you can make changes midway. Life is a journey of discovery. Get your heart, mind, body, and spirit ready for adventure every day. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!" #MindsetMonday #CreateYourNow #PersonalDevelopment TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me. You will be able to discuss your specific situation and gain tools and strategies to move you forward. Live. Love. IMPACT! "One step at a time leads to miles of greatness!"

En ny generation af klimasatellitter blev sendt i rummet i lørdags. Satellitten Sentinel-6 skal give os de hidtil mest præcise målinger af havniveauet, og hvor meget det stiger med, som følge af menneskeskabte klimaforandringer. Og så løftede Uddannelses - og forskningsministeriet for det nye DISCO-program for danske universitetsstuderende, som skal give dem mulighed for at bygge og opsende deres egne cubesats. RocketLab lykkedes med at få en raket ned i et stykke, selvom det er utrolig svært, og det lykkedes Den Nye Rumalder at få et interview med Doug Hurley, en af de første astronauter til at flyve på SpaceX' Crew Dragon rumkapsel. Medvirkende: Ole Andersen, professor DTU Space, Christoffer Karoff, leder af DISCO-programmet, Jacob Larsen, formand for Copenhagen Suborbitals, Doug Hurley, NASA-astronaut.

The capsule, named Resilience, and its SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket rolled out to Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida late Monday into early Tuesday (Nov. 9-10), NASA officials said. The Falcon 9 is scheduled to launch Saturday evening (Nov. 14), sending four astronauts — NASA's Victor Glover, Mike Hopkins and Shannon Walker and Japan's Soichi Noguchi — to the orbiting lab on Crew-1, SpaceX's first operational astronaut mission for NASA. NASA's Commercial Crew Program awarded SpaceX a $2.6 billion contract in 2014 to fly at least six operational crewed missions to the space station. The six-month-long Crew-1 is the first of those contracted flights, but it won't be SpaceX's first-ever astronaut mission. That distinction goes to Demo-2, a test flight that sent NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley to the station for two months this past summer. SpaceX Kicks-Off Assembly on First Super Heavy Starship Booster in South Texas SpaceX's Super Heavy might be effectively complete in one month, and we couldn't be more excited. Link: https://interestingengineering.com/spacex-kicks-off-assembly-on-first-super-heavy-starship-booster-in-south-texas SpaceX kicks-off Starship Super Heavy assembly in South Texas Technically, SpaceX could build much smaller booster prototypes for the initial test flights into orbit — this might be done via modifying the tank design of Starship — but rocketry isn't an exceedingly modular enterprise, Teslarati reports. However, whether the move comes via confidence or contingency, SpaceX is jumping directly into Starship prototype development, toward a full-scale Super Heavy booster production and testing platform. Super Heavy could be one of SpaceX's easiest projects Indeed, in an inversion of the typical relationship, the next-gen rocket's booster will probably be much simpler than the upper stage — which would be the largest spacecraft with reusable parts and upper stage in the world. Lacking a need for a tiled heat shield, aerodynamic control surfaces (discounting Falcon-style grid fins), a conical nose, and possibly even internal header tanks, the only serious challenge Super Heavy faces for the first time is developing an engine section capable of feeding and supporting up to 28 Raptor engines. Jim Bridenstine will step aside as NASA chief when President-elect Biden takes over: report Link: https://www.space.com/nasa-chief-bridenstine-step-aside-president-biden NASA will apparently be getting a new leader after president-elect Joe Biden is sworn in. NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine won't remain in the agency's lead role in the Biden administration even if asked, Aerospace Daily & Defense Report reported on Sunday (Nov. 8). "You need somebody who has a close relationship with the president of the U.S. ... somebody trusted by the administration …. including OMB [Office of Management and Budget], National Space Council, National Security Council," Bridenstine told Irene Klotz, space editor for Aviation Week, Aerospace Daily & Defense Report's parent publication. "I think I would not be the right person for that in a new administration." "There is a political agreement that America needs to do big things in space exploration, that we need to lead the world ... There have been lessons learned from the past, and I think Congress is in a good position to make sure that we have sustainable programs going forward," he said in one of the tweeted snippets. And in another one, he stressed that "there are a lot of people that can do great work as the NASA administrator." This Bacterium Survived on The Outside of The Space Station For a Whole Damn Year Link: https://www.sciencealert.com/this-bacterium-survived-on-the-outside-of-the-space-station-for-a-year A year in space is no walk in the park. Just ask Scott Kelly, the American astronaut who spent a year on the International Space Station (ISS) in 2015. His long-term stay in space changed his DNA, telomeres, and gut microbiome, he lost bone density, and he still had sore feet three months later. So, it's quite a feat that a species of bacterium first found in a can of meat, Deinococcus radiodurans, was still alive and kicking after a year spent living on a specially designed platform outside the pressurised module of the ISS. Researchers have been investigating these mighty microbes for a while; back in 2015, an international team set up the Tanpopo mission on the outside of the Japanese Experimental Module Kibo, to put hardy bacterial species to the test. Now, D. radiodurans has passed with flying colours. This isn't the longest time D. radiodurans has been kept in these conditions – back in August we wrote about a sample of the bacterium being left up there for three whole years. But the team weren't trying for a world record, instead they were trying to uncover what makes D. radiodurans just so good at surviving in these extreme conditions. So, after a year of radiation, freezing and boiling temperatures, and no gravity, the researchers got the spacefaring bacteria back down to Earth, rehydrated both a control that had spent the year on Earth and the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) sample, and compared their results. The survival rate was a lot lower for the LEO bacteria compared to the control version, but the bacteria that did survive seemed to be doing okay, even if they had turned a little different to their Earth-bound brethren.

On this episode of Space Curious, we're talking about our fascination with astronauts, an elite class of humans who have trained years for spaceflight but they are also people with families, hobbies --and --bodily functions. This year marked the first-time astronauts have launched from Florida since 2011 when astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken successfully launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in the Dragon spacecraft, made it to the space station -- and returned home, splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico. It was an epic return for American human space exploration. The astronauts -- affectionately known as “The Space Dads” -- answered a lot of questions about their journey, including about the Crew Dragon bathroom. To ask the question about why we want to know about the little oddities of space life, Space Curious host Emilee Speck spoke to space journalists Marina Koren, of The Atlantic, and Brendan Byrne, of WMFE, along with retired NASA astronaut Terry Virts. Virts offered his perspective of living in space, including some details you might not expect like giving his space station crew mate a haircut and the sounds he misses most from his spaceflights. While, Byrne and Koren both remind us that astronauts' families are also heroes of spaceflight.
Peter and Dan discuss the recent launch and recovery of the SpaceX Crew Dragon, which carried humans in a commercially built spacecraft to and from the International Space Station. NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley splashed down on August 2, 2020 making it the first water landing since 1975. In this episode:
Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley recount their return to Earth at their welcome home ceremony and crew news conference in Houston. The NASA astronauts made history in August as the first to splash down in an American spacecraft in 45 years, thus completing NASA's SpaceX Demo-2 mission. HWHAP Episode 159.

The NASA astronauts made history in August as the first to splash down in an American spacecraft in 45 years, thus completing NASA's SpaceX Demo-2 mission. HWHAP Episode 159.
Chapter 1: The SpaceX dragon capsule returned from the International Space Station with astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken returned from 64 days in space. Guest: Mubdi Rahman, Research Associate at the Dunlap Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of Toronto. Chapter 2: US President Donald Trump appears to be following through on threats to shut down Hong Kong based TikTok, one of the most popular social media apps among young people in the United States and Canada. Guest: Terry Cutler, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the IT security and data defense company Cyology Labs, “Ethical Hacker”. Chapter 3: Everyone knows the etiquette at gas stations because we've been using them our entire lives, it's become second-nature to get in line, leave space for people to get out and everyone just works together to get in and out as quick as you can. Electric Vehicles are a different story though, and the etiquette is something that people who drive an EV are still developing. Chapter 4: A man near Strathcona Park was caught on video threatening to stab Vancouver City Councillor Pete Fry just hours after Fry was on the show with us talking about the need to address the growing encampment in the park. Guest: Katie Lewis, Vice President of the Strathcona Residents Association. Chapter 5: People who experience violence in intimate relationships are in an especially precarious situation amid the pandemic, and a team of researchers have just released a tool they hope will help. Guest: Sobhana Jaya-Madhavan, helped edit the book, AVP, External Relations at Simon Fraser University Chapter 6: People are reporting they're reading a lot more this summer as overseas vacations and big BBQ's are on hold, but retailers say they're in a tough spot right now due to an ongoing decline in revenues. Guest: Heidi Waechtler, Executive Director Association of Book Publishers of BC. Guest: Andrew Wooldrigdge, Orca Book Publishers (kids books) Chapter 7: We've seen more deaths result from opioid overdoses than from COVID-19 since the pandemic began, and the people working with drug users on the frontlines are more critical than ever before. Guest: Jesse Winter, award-winning freelance photographer currently based in Vancouver
As US astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken head back to Earth in their Dragon Endeavour capsule from the space station, we talk about how space is being commercialised. What lies in store as space becomes less of a frontier and more accessible. Actually that space above our heads is more busy than you might realise. And life down here on Earth is very much dependent on the technology we have sent up. This podcast was recorded just after Space X launch a few weeks ago. Now that this first mission is nearing completion it is about time we released it. I hope you enjoy listening to it and if you do there are other podcasts right here to take in.
Launching a new age of human spaceflight in the United States, Elon Musk's SpaceX can officially consider itself the first-ever company to send humans into space on a commercial spacecraft.So without further ado, welcome. You're part of the new era of space travel. As a member of the human race, SpaceX's historic rocket launch could mean big things for you. After all, according to Elon Musk, “Human spaceflight was the reason SpaceX was created.”On Saturday, May 30 at 3:22 p.m., history was made when SpaceX successfully launched the Crew Dragon capsule carrying NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley — the first two people to fly in a SpaceX vehicle. And just like that, a new era of American space travel took flight. In the same moment Elon Musk had been working toward for over a decade, the launch revolutionized the American space program, and made traveling to the stars seem just within reach. In a special episode of The Abstract, we recap SpaceX's historic mission of the first crewed spaceflight to take off from U.S. soil in nearly a decade.For many Americans, Doug Hurley's and Bob Behnken's success into orbit on SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket changed everything. Revving up the United States' space program, #LaunchAmerica became the hashtag of the week at a time when we needed it the most.Marking the end of a nine-year period in which the U.S. had to rely on Russia to send astronauts to space, SpaceX's success proved America is back in business and headed for the stars. As 2020 continues to be a year that tests American resilience, perhaps Elon Musk puts it best: “This event is something that all of humanity can get excited about. It's just a fundamentally positive, good thing, and I think we need more good things in this world.”Read more at: inverse.com/the-abstractSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's finally here. The launch of American astronauts from American soil is happening this week with the launch of NASA's Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley on a SpaceX rocket.
Welcome to TechCrunch daily news, a round up of the top tech news of the day. --SpaceX is giving astronauts a lift to the International Space Station --A new jailbreak can unlock any iPhone --and a startup raises $250 million to reduce food waste. Here's your Daily Crunch for May 26, 2020. First up: SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon spacecraft are now set to fly with NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken onboard, making a trip to the International Space Station.
Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley will make history when they break the bond from Earth in a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule that's never been flown by humans before. But find out how the strong bond of friendship they share gives them the edge in space.
As men we often think that our profession is our calling. What if there was something more, if we each had a unique calling? This episode we will talk with special guest Doug Hurley about how our 9-5 is not nearly important as how we do it. For more info from Doug visit lifelessonsoverlunch.com Our hope is that this podcast will encourage you and your group and that you can have conversations around this idea asking each other the 3 questions: What does this mean for me personally? What am I going to do about it? (What is a faith step I can take?) How can we (the group) help? Subscribe to stay updated with the latest content.

Pastor Tim Bales: July 17, 2011 Going Beyond, Part XII, “Beyond Obligation.” If you're new to the church or haven't been here in a while, I'm not Pastor Jeff. My name is Pastor Tim, and I'm the Discipleship Pastor here at Faith Community Church. I'm often tucked away in the classroom, so you may not be as familiar with me. Pastor Jeff is on a well-needed vacation with his family. I believe he's in northern California enjoying the redwoods; so he gave me the opportunity to preach, and here I am. We've been going through a series for several weeks now, if you're new to the church or haven't been here in a while. We're going through the “Going Beyond” series. We're talking about taking our faith to the next level. We've talked about several topics already: “Beyond Giving,” giving sacrificially; and “Beyond Success,” what it looks like to be successful as a Christian. Last week we talked about going “Beyond Mediocrity” and the warning that God gives us that He doesn't like lukewarm Christians. This week, we're talking about “Going Beyond: Obligation.” I imagine that everyone at some point in your life, if you haven't in the past-maybe in the future-if you've ever been at a low point, been frustrated, or if you're just looking for guidance, you've looked up to Heaven and said, “God, what do You really want from me?” Now, if you're still waiting for an answer, I have good news for you. He's going to answer that for us today. Today, I want to share with you your obligation to God and our freedom in Christ. My desire is that we will have a clearer understanding of what God truly desires, what He deserves, and that we will consider whether or not we are offering it to Him. Let's talk about obligation. I'm sure you are somewhat familiar with that word, but I want to look at that word because it has certain aspects that we're going to be talking about this morning. By definition, we could say that an obligation is a morally-based expectation of commitment or loyalty to repay a debt owed. You have obligations; you understand this. You have moral obligations. You have a moral obligation to your family, if you have children, to provide them with food, a roof over their head, security, shelter, and education. If you have past relationships, you understand your moral responsibility to child support. You also have financial obligations. You have financial obligations if you have a mortgage or a loan. If you've taken money from the bank, you have an obligation to pay it back. If you go to work, your employer has an obligation to pay you for the work that you do. In the sports world, the athletes who sign contracts have an obligation to live up to a certain level of performance in order to earn all the millions of dollars they've been promised. We have financial obligations. You also have legal obligations. On the way to church today, you were obligated to stop at the stop sign or light. There are other laws we are obligated to obey. When Pastor Jeff asked me if I would be willing to preach today, I had an obligation to follow through, to show up here, and to share what God has laid upon my heart. We also recognize that with an obligation, if there is failure to meet that obligation, bad things start to happen; and there is judgment that is incurred. If I fail to live up to the obligations of the law, I may end up in jail. If I fail to live up to my obligations as a good husband, I may end up divorced. If I fail to pay back the money I owe on my mortgage, I may end up in foreclosure. When we fail to live up to our obligations, bad things start to happen. We recognize with an obligation, there is a cost involved. There is a debt incurred; and then if we fail to meet that obligation, there is judgment. Okay? That's pretty clear. I think we get that much. Now I want to share with you one more illustration that comes from recent headlines. Maybe you're familiar with this. It is about the space shuttle Atlantis. If you're not familiar with it, nine days ago-on Friday at 10:30 a.m.-the last space shuttle was launched into orbit under the Space Program. The Space Program has now been shut down. Future missions will be funded by private investors. For all practical purposes, the Space Program-which has gone on for decades-is now shut down, so it was a pretty exciting opportunity if you were able to watch it. I don't know if this excites women as much as it does men, but there is just something really cool about strapping yourself to a rocket, putting flammable liquids inside, and lighting it with a match. That's just really cool! Maybe some of you ladies understood what we're trying to say [based on] the Fourth of July with fireworks. There is just something that draws our attention to things that shoot up into the air. As I was watching, I went to Nasa.com, I think it was. I watched this for about 45 minutes. The events leading up to the moments before the launch consisted of talking about the weather and the precision of the calculations before they would be launched up into orbit 234 miles. Right now they're orbiting the earth every 90 minutes at 234 miles high. It's just interesting to me, but as I was listening, I recognized very clearly that NASA had a plan. Their plan was to join the International Space Station in this endeavor to benefit all of mankind. They wanted to join in this effort, and they called upon four astronauts: Christopher Ferguson; a pilot, Doug Hurley; mission specialist, Sandy Magnus; and Rex Walheim. This is the kind of mission that makes you proud to be an American. We're reaching beyond our four walls to benefit mankind. NASA shares with these four astronauts the vision. They catch the vision, and they recognize that we are looking for a better tomorrow to benefit mankind, to bring international peace on some level because the International Space Station is represented by so many different countries to increase our knowledge of the created universe we live in. They took in the vision, and then NASA poured commitment into these four individuals. They poured in their efforts, their time commitments, and they poured in a great price tag financially. The estimated cost to spend the space shuttle Atlantis to the International Space Station was $1 billion for just this mission. That's a lot of money! Considering all that NASA has invested into these four individuals, do you think they had an obligation to show up for the launch? Yes! They had a great obligation. If they hadn't shown up, there would be a great disappointment by NASA and by the American people everywhere. We're going to come back to that in a while, but we get the idea of obligation. There is a cost; there is a debt; and then there is a judgment for failure to meet that obligation. What is our obligation to God? He created us; He sets the standard of how we relate to Him. How can we please Him? Maybe another way to ask this question-it's kind of cold-but what are the rules I need to follow in order to get into Heaven? That's the bare minimum of what we want to know. Fortunately, God made it very clear to the Israelites what He expected of them by giving Him His law, what He expected of them to be in right relationship with Him. This story starts back in Exodus. You may be familiar with it. The Israelites were in bondage for 400 years in the land of Egypt. They cried out to God; they prayed to Him, and God responded. He sent them Moses to draw them out of the land of Egypt. He performed these great plagues and these manifestations of His power, and He drew them out of the land of Egypt and into the wilderness. Eventually, He led them to the base of Mt. Sinai. At Mt. Sinai, God appeared to them in this great pomp and circumstance by thunder and lightning and a booming voice. He gave them the Ten Commandments, the Mosaic Law. Later on, He gave them the details of what He wanted them to abide by: the Sacrificial Law; the atonement for their sins; to be giving a tithe of what God has blessed them with of their first fruits; and to celebrate certain festivals. God laid out for them a detailed list of what they ought to do in order to be in right relationship with Him. The Jews took that upon themselves-at times doing very well, at times not so well; but for the next 1,500 years, they lived under this law until Jesus came and made a very pointed statement. He said in Matthew 5:20 (page 959 of pew Bibles), “For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” Now keep in mind that the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were the holiest people on the planet at that time. Jesus had just said that the holiest people on the planet failed to live up to their obligation to please God in a right relationship. Then the natural response for us is if the holiest people on the planet can't live up to God's expectations, who can? Jesus' point is if you're living under the law and living by your sinful nature and your faith does not go beyond what you do for God, you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven. There's nothing you can do to acquire God's pleasure, His favor. There is nothing you can do; it's impossible. Why would God give us this standard that we can't live up to? Let's talk more about that. The main Passage I want to look at this morning is in Romans 8:1-14 (page 1118 of pew Bibles). Paul is talking to the church in Rome, but by extension, he's talking to Christians in general. This is a fairly long Passage, so I encourage you to just hang in there. We'll get through all of it. There is a lot of information in there. It talks about our relationship with God under the old law and under God's grace in Christ Jesus. “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the sinful nature, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful Man to be a sin offering. And so He condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the sinful nature but according to the Spirit. “Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace; the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God. “You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you. [Romans 8:12, page 1118], “Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation-but it is not to the sinful nature, to live according to it. For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” Jesus says that there is a standard we cannot live up to. There is an obligation. Regarding obligation, if there is a failure to meet that obligation, there is judgment. I like what Paul has to say in Verses 7-8. It's very clear, “…the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so.” It's impossible. “Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.” Why would God create us with an obligation, a standard that we cannot live up to? His perfect character cannot tolerate anything less than perfection. We cannot live up to His standard. Why would He do that? What is our obligation to God? Our obligation, under God's law, is to die in our sin, to suffer God's wrath. That's our obligation. That's what God created us to do. Thanks a lot, God! The law obligates us to sin. What a pitiful place to be! We are sinful. Paul says, “We are condemned. We are hostile to God, and we cannot please Him.” This message keeps getting worse, doesn't it? Hang in there with me, and like a good sitcom, we'll get this all nicely wrapped up in a half hour. But, if we don't take time to start here, if we don't realize the magnitude of our spiritual depravity, we cannot fully appreciate what Christ has done. The reality is our sin really does cause God pain. When I lose my temper, it hurts my family, and it also hurts God's heart. When I use His name in vain, I rob God of His due glory. When we doubt, we are not trusting Him. When we live in sexual immorality, we mock His power. When I pursue selfish dreams of wealth and grandeur, I'm saying, “God, You're not generous enough.” When I say that I am a Christian and yet do these things, I am a detriment to the name of God and to His church. Sin destroys relationships. It hurts people. It can ruin you financially. It affects every part of your life. Sin is a big problem in God's book. It's as if we were saying, “I am the God of my life.” In Romans 3:23 (page 1114), it says, “…for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…” All of us have sinned; therefore we are obligated to die in our sin, to suffer God's wrath. Keep in mind that death is not ceasing to exist. When you die, you don't just go poof! and everything is over. It's not like that. Death is separation from life, and life comes from God. We are separated from God because of our sin and obligated to suffer His wrath. The Bible is very clear that we are eternal beings. At the end of Matthew 25, Jesus said, “Those who obey God will go off to eternal life, and those who reject God will go off to eternal punishment.” That's hard to hear. We are eternal beings. I like what the Christian author and theologian, C.S. Lewis, has to say. He said, “You have never met a mere mortal, somebody who will die and then cease to exist.” You have never met a mere mortal person. We are creatures of infinite glory or everlasting destruction, and each one of us is helping everyone else to one of these destinations-even within the church. There are people living under the sinful nature, living under this law that we cannot live up to. We are obligated to die in our sin and suffer God's wrath. It may be somebody sitting next to you. It may be the person sitting in your very own seat. As a church staff, we are reading a book together chapter by chapter. It's called, “Radical.” I mentioned it before. Maybe you recognized it. It's by Dr. David Platt, who is a young pastor of a mega-church in Birmingham, Alabama. He made a comment [that we came across] this past week when we were reading together that I could not help but empathize with as a fellow pastor. Maybe as a Christian you will be able to empathize with this as well, or you've had this same thought. He says, “As a pastor, I shudder at the thought and lie awake at night when I consider the possibility that scores of people who sit before me on a Sunday morning might think that they are saved when they are not. Oh, God, may this not be true of our congregation.” Jesus says at the beginning of Matthew 7 (page 961) that you will know a tree by its fruit. “A good tree bears good fruit. A bad tree bears bad fruit.” A Christian will bear fruit for Christ. At the end of that same chapter in Verse 21, Matthew 7:21, Jesus says, “‘Not all who say to Me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only He who does the will of My Father who is in Heaven.'” What Jesus is saying is some people call themselves Christians, but they're not. They call themselves Christians, yet they are still living under their own selfish, sinful nature. We think that we can be Christians and still live in sin because, after all, we're forgiven. That's what Christ did on the cross, right? Maybe we try to hide our sin from other people and think that somehow we can fool God into believing that we're pretty good. You may know people like this. You may know people who say, “I'm not really worried about Heaven and hell because nobody has ever really been there. You know what? If I go to hell, so what-because all my friends will be there, and it will be a great big party.” Well, I don't think that's the picture God paints for us in Scripture; and I really don't believe it's going to be all that pleasant. I don't ever plan on going there to find out, and I can't even say I've been to Heaven; but I know that the Bible paints a very pleasant picture of Heaven and a very unpleasant picture of hell. Jesus, who was the Creator of all, had this to say about hell, “It would be better for you to cut off your own hand or your feet or to gauge out your own eyes than to allow you to let your sins send you into the eternal fire of hell.” Something tells me Jesus is trying to get our attention here. Something tells me that there is an important message that he wants us to understand about how unpleasant hell is. If we continue to live under the law of our sinful nature, we are obligated to die in our sin. You may be looking at the Passage that we looked at and saying, “Now, Pastor Tim, I realize what you're saying. It sounds really bad, but I think you missed Verse 1 here. It says, ‘There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.' What about that?” Well, I'm so glad you asked. I have great news. The Bible says in 1 John 4:8 (page 1209), “…God is love.” God is love, so why would He create people to be condemned to die, to suffer His wrath, and have no way out? Because He had to. Because He needed to show us the depth of our spiritual, our sinful condition in order that we might understand the depth of His love for us. He had to give us the free will to choose to love Him because love cannot be demanded. It must be freely offered. He wants us to love Him. God didn't want us to suffer or to die for our sin, but because of His righteous integrity, He had to maintain justice. We mentioned under the definition of obligation, if there is a failure to meet that obligation, there is judgment-the judgment of God's wrath. Therefore, God sent His only Son into the world to be a sin offering for us, to die in our place on the cross. Under God's law, we are obligated to die. Because of what Christ did, we are freed from that obligation. We are freed from the obligation to die in our sin and to suffer God's wrath. Everybody has been freed from that obligation, but not all choose to receive that gift. Romans 6:23 (page 1117) says, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” A gift needs to be received. It's offered, but it's not necessarily received. It is as though all of us, all of humankind, have been placed into a big prison cell with bars and gates. The door is closed and locked, and you are put on death row and will certainly die. There is no way out. Then someone comes along; they unlock the bolt and open the door. They say, “You are free to go.” Some people get up and are really excited. They go out to a new freedom. They enjoy a new life and immense joy because of their new freedom. Then there are others who choose to stay in that prison. Why would they do that? “It's safe in here and secure. I know what to expect. I get three square meals a day and get to watch television. What more is there? What could be better than that?” Because of this deception, this lie, that there is nothing better beyond the prison cell walls, they choose to remain in that prison. They're missing out on a great freedom. It's a personal choice though. It's made by you. It's not made by your parents; it's not made because you were baptized as an infant into the church. It's not because of your good church attendance. It's not even because of some magical prayer you prayed in the past. Receiving Christ is a paradigm shift. It's a lifestyle change where you exchange your will for Christ's will in your life. It's received through faith in Christ's sacrifice on the cross. We need to be careful here because we may be guilty of something that the early church was guilty of. We recognize what Christ did on the cross in forgiving our sins, but that doesn't give me the license and the freedom just to live as I want. That doesn't mean I can go out and live a sexually-immoral life because God has forgiven my sins. It doesn't mean I don't need to worry about tithing, what I do with my money, or obeying God because God has forgiven me and I can live anyway I want. Well, the early church did this, and that was not God's intention. In fact, Paul had to address this. He addressed it in 1 Corinthians 9:21(page 1134). He said, “(…I am not freed from God's law, but I am under Christ's law)…” We are free from the penalty of our sin. We are free from the obligation to die and suffer God's wrath. You are either under a law that brings death or you are under the freedom of the law that brings life. By default, you are under the law that brings death. Now earlier we mentioned the definition of an obligation. There is a cost involved, and we mentioned that Jesus Christ died and paid the cost for our salvation. What happens when there is a cost? There is a debt incurred. Ironically, choosing freedom from our old obligation-choosing Christ-leaves us with a new obligation, but not for sin and death. If you should so choose to receive Christ's gift of salvation, you are obligated to live by the Spirit of God. I like what Paul very clearly says in Romans 7:12, “Therefore, brothers, we have an obligation, but it is not to the sinful nature.” In Romans 7:9, Paul makes a contrast. There is a shift in focus. In Verses 7:5-8, he talks about our sinful nature, our condemnation, our inability to please God. In Verse 9, there is a change. He says, “You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ.” This is very serious stuff. He is speaking to people who are not condemned. What makes them different? Is it because Jesus died? In part, yes, but not fully. It is because they have the Spirit of God living in them. The key to eternal life is in the Spirit of God which we receive through faith in Christ. How do we know that we have the Spirit of God? Well, Paul tells us in Romans 7:5 (page 1118), “Our minds are on what the Spirit desires.” What does that look like? Does having the Spirit of God in my life mean I have to go to church every week? That's a good thing, but not necessarily. Does it mean that I enjoy going to church every week? Well, that would be good too, but not necessarily. Does it mean that I read my Bible every day or pray for hours on end? Does that mean that I have the Spirit of God in me? It might, but not necessarily. If I am blessed by God in my life-if I'm healthy, if everything is going well-and is the sign of God's blessing showering down upon me, is that a sign that I have the Spirit of God in me? Well, I know a lot of missionaries from the past and people who were holy people who did not have very pleasant lives and did not appear to us to have the blessing of God upon them; yet they were very holy and the Spirit of God lived through them in a mighty way. So, what does it look like? How do we know that we have the Spirit of God? Well, the Spirit of God brings peace in your life; joy in your relationships; patience in your trials; love in your marriage; self-control in temptation. It makes you wise so you can make good decisions. It helps you to resist sin, anger, and jealousy. When you overflow with the Spirit, you become a blessing to others, not a burden. You give to other people and you don't take. People start to like you more; you realize that you start to love people more too because you recognize that they're made in the image of God, and God loves them too. The Spirit of God is the promise-the seal of our eternal life with Him. It is the opportunity to be in God's presence, to praise Him, and to live out our purpose that He's created us for; to bring glory to Him with our lives and not glory to ourselves. When you have the Spirit of God, you are passionate about the things that God is passionate about. You love what He loves; you hate what He hates. If there is an injustice, it makes you angry. If there is corruption, it grieves your heart. The will of God will consume you, and you will not be able to sit down and do nothing about it. If you are truly a follower of Christ, then you are obligated to live by the Spirit of God because the Spirit of God defines the life of Christ. If you do not have the Spirit of God, then you are truly missing out on God's greatest blessings. I mentioned before that we'd come back to that illustration about the space shuttle Atlantis because there is an element of that obligation that we haven't talked much about. We mentioned that they were obligated to show up for the launch, but the reality is that Commander Christopher Ferguson had the freedom to choose to say no. He had the freedom to walk away. He could have said, “You know what? It's been a great journey these past several years. I've learned a lot. It's really interesting, but you know what? The whole flammable liquid thing gets me a little uneasy. The lighting of the match and shooting up in the air, I'm not so sure about that. Quite frankly, my wife reminded me I have a dinner appointment tonight, and I don't want to miss that. You know what she would have to say about that? It might send her into orbit.” That would be ridiculous! That would be ridiculous if he failed to show up, but the reality is he has the freedom to choose; but this is what he's living for. This is what defines his life as being his purpose right now. This is what he was trained to do. People are looking to him as an icon of American pride, scientific advancement, and a symbol of what man can do. It would be a huge disappointment to NASA and to everyone else, all Americans all around, if he failed to show up for the launch. Yet, many people who call themselves Christians have done just that. God has shared with us His great vision to bless mankind. He has called us. He has given us this vision. He has equipped us with all we need to be successful, and we have actually responded with, “Yes, I want to be a part of this exciting plan to bless mankind.” Just like the billions of dollars spent on the International Space Station, Jesus' priceless blood was the cost for the mission that we elected to choose. Yet many Christians never follow through with their obligation. They never launch. They just sit there on the launch pad looking all pretty with this potential but never achieving anything. Like other people at times in my life, I have found that I am too busy with my own agenda to listen to the Spirit of God. At times, I tend to be more interested in happiness than holiness, [more concerned about] momentary pleasures than eternal joy. I spend more time being concerned with storing up treasures for my retirement than treasures in Heaven. I'm more bothered by what other people do wrong than my own sinful behavior. Quite frankly, oftentimes I'm more focused on me. When it's time for God to show up in a situation and I see there is a need, or I see somebody who is hurting, the best I can do is say, “I'll pray for you,” “I hope you get better,” or “I'm sure that God will provide.” That is not what God had in mind. At that point, if the Spirit of God is in you, He will prick your heart and say, “No, that's not what I want. I don't want you to pray for them. I want you to say, ‘Hey, I'm here to pray with you right now. I can tell that you're hurting. Tell me more about it. Talk to me. I want to listen.'” I don't want to just hope that you get better. I want to say, “You know what? Can I bring you a meal? I can see that you're sick? Can I bring you to a doctor appointment? Do you need a ride? What can I do to help you through this difficult time?” Instead of saying, “You know what? I can see that you're struggling, whether it be financially or you have a need…” Instead of saying, “I'm sure that God will provide. He's a generous God,” ask what has God given me that I have to offer? He has given us what we have that we might be a blessing to other people. God wants us to be concerned about what He is concerned about, even in the little things. Under God's law in our sinful nature, we are obligated to die, obligated to suffer His wrath. In Christ, we are freed from that obligation. If we choose to receive that obligation, then we are obligated to live by the Spirit of God. So, back to what God wants from us. Well, Old Testament/New Testament, it hasn't really changed. In fact, it goes back even before the law. What God really wants from us…is us. He wants our love and devotion. We asked the question before: what are the rules I need to follow in order to get to Heaven? Well, there really is only one rule. God says, “Love Me. Love Me with all your heart. Don't just like Me like you would like a friend on Facebook. Love Me with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength-more than money, success, power, or things that bring momentary happiness. More than anything, love Me with all your heart.” When you love God like that, then you will have the Spirit of God living in you, and oh, the power of God's love. The power of God's love holds within it the solution for world peace; an end to war; an end to poverty, to sickness, and corruption. God's love can even fix a messed-up life. My heart is still concerned as a pastor that there may be some in our own congregation who may think that they are Christians, but are they really? I don't want anyone to stand before God only to be rejected and to have them turn to God and say, “Why didn't You tell me?” He is telling you right now. Do you know without a doubt that you are living by the Spirit of God, the Spirit of God is in you, and you are loving Him with all your heart? I might not be able to tell you the exact day or time, but I can tell you without a doubt that there was a time in my life when I gave my life to Christ. I was about seven years old, and my mom had shared with me the condition of my sinful nature and the good news that I have in Christ. I said, “Yes, God, I give You my life. Whatever You ask, I will do.” In just a minute, we're going to pray, but before we do, I want to say it again: not everyone who calls himself a Christian will enter the Kingdom of God, Matthew 7:21. Having said that, you can be confident of your salvation-you can be assured of your salvation-by being honest, open, and vulnerable before God about the condition of your heart. Maybe you've grown up in the church and have been warming a pew for years, but you know you're not wholly-devoted. You take a look at your life and you clearly know that God is not pleased with all areas of your life. Are you really living by the Spirit? Is the Spirit of God in you? Today you are faced with a choice. You can choose to live in freedom by the Spirit, or you can choose to live, again, by your sinful nature under the law that you cannot live up to the obligation, and you are destined to die and to suffer God's wrath. I want to ask you to bow your heads and close your eyes. If there is any chance that anyone in this room might be among those who think that they are saved and are not, let's take care of that right now. I'm not going to ask anyone to raise their hands or stand up, say your name, come forward or anything because I don't want you to be swayed by what other people are doing. I want this to be honest, open, and genuine in your own heart before God because if it's not honest, open, and genuine, it will not stick. First, I want to ask if you know this morning that you are living in the Spirit, I want to ask you to pray right now wherever you're at in silence. I ask that you pray that the Spirit of God would move in our congregation. If you want to make today a turning point in your life; if you've never given your life to Christ; if you want to say, “Yes, I want to stop living for myself and want to put God at the center of my life”; if you have never given your life to Christ, I want you to pray with me silently right now: God, I know that I am a sinner. You've told me this in Your Book, and I believe it. I recognize that in my sin, I am obligated to die and to suffer Your wrath. I thank You for what Christ did on the cross, freeing me from that obligation; and I choose today to give my life to You. I don't know exactly what it looks like to live in the Spirit, but I want to learn and I want to please You with my life. Thank You for showing me the Truth. Give me the strength and surround me with people who will show me the way, that I might live my life for You. I ask that in Jesus' name. If you've been in the church for years but know you aren't truly following God with your whole heart or if at one time in your life, you were living by the Spirit and now you've fallen away, I want you to draw a line in the sand today and turn your life around. Get back on track. If that describes you this morning, I want you to pray with me silently where you're at: Heavenly Father, I know what You've done for me, and I thank You for what Christ did on the cross; but if I look at my life right now and if I'm honest with You, my life does not please You. I'm living under my sinful nature, my selfish desires. Lord, if I'm living under my sinful nature, there is judgment to be had. I recognize, Lord, that You have destined me for greater things. I want to live for You with my whole life. Help me to launch out of my place of apathy that I might show the world and shine Your light on what You have done for them. God, I draw a line in the sand, and I'm turning my life in a new direction. Thank You for reaching into my life and reminding me what Christ has done and giving me a second chance to live my whole life for You. Thank You, God, for Your generosity, for Your forgiveness, for Your blessing. Lord, we pray that Your Spirit will bless our congregation now. Wherever we're at, we give our lives to You, that You might be glorified in our lives, in our community, and our families. Lord, help us to shine our lights with Your glory. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
