We are the bride, and Jesus is our Hero Husband. Marriage isn't just a human institution—it's holy matrimony because it reflects the sacred covenant between Christ and His Church.In Episode 3 of "Jesus – Our Hero Husband", Duane Sheriff explores the profound biblical truth that marriage was divinely ordained by God before sin entered the world, revealing Christ's covenant relationship with His bride. Drawing from Ephesians 5, Genesis, and Revelation 21, he explains why marriage is called holy matrimony and how this sacred institution points to Jesus' faithful, sacrificial love for His Church.As the world's assault on biblical marriage continues, this message reveals that the battle is ultimately against the gospel itself and God's original design. More importantly, it reminds believers of their true identity as the bride of Christ, cherished, nourished, and forever united to their Hero Husband. As we embrace this great mystery, we find lasting security, purpose, and confidence in Christ's covenant love, allowing His truth—not the confusion of our culture—to define who we are.

What if the depth of God's love for us is far greater than we've ever imagined? In Episode 2 of "Jesus - Our Hero Husband", Duane Sheriff explores one of Scripture's greatest mysteries: Christ's covenant relationship with His Church, revealed through the institution of marriage. Drawing from Ephesians 3 and 5, he invites us to comprehend the width, length, depth, and height of God's love—a love that surpasses mere intellectual knowledge and can only be grasped by the Spirit.Rather than measuring God's love by our emotions or circumstances, discover how it was demonstrated at the cross. As we come to understand His sacrificial, unconditional love, we are transformed and filled with the fullness of God. Through the biblical picture of marriage, we learn that Jesus loves us as He loves Himself because we are one spirit with Him, flesh of His flesh and bone of His bones. This breathtaking truth revolutionizes our relationship with God and draws us into deeper intimacy with our Hero Husband.

“So maybe I should enlighten you on what happens in your absence. This selfish existence where this introvert turns extrovert and dons her social armour.” Some posh girl in drainpipes said that - 200 views on TikTok and me one of them. But she didn't mean it like I mean it. I started getting expensive haircuts, started wearing jeans that hug my legs, started smoking cherry-flavoured vapes with beautiful gays and whinging to them about how everyone wears a mask but none so well as you, started drinking more and keeping unusual hours, started taking strange pills gifted by a guy who collects drugs like Pokémon, who I wouldn't touch to save a drowning child, who got a false impression about this without any intention on my part, I tell myself. I found myself talking to God in a startup warehouse, lying on a beanbag chair, coming out of the trip to the sound of a gaggle of fast-talking transwomen all speculating on which year it will be that we all die - and that death by your hands, well, you and all those friends of yours. Having melted down one cliché and sold her for scrap, does it [...] --- First published: July 23rd, 2026 Source: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/G6obXhcmtfMFHzr7Q/duane-arnold-1 --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Episode 455 | Martial Arts Appreciation Month: How to Drive Referrals, Reviews, and Retention Podcast Description National Martial Arts Appreciation Month (September) isn't just a “fun theme” — it's a full marketing and retention campaign you can run every year. In this episode, Duane Brumitt and Allie Alberigo break down how they built Martial Arts Appreciation Month into a repeatable playbook that drives referrals, strengthens culture, and gives families a real reason to talk about what martial arts has done for their kids. You'll hear practical ideas you can copy: a buddy week where students bring friends, sponsor-funded T-shirts that turn into walking billboards, review drives that feel like appreciation (not begging), and simple ways to educate parents on your school's legacy so they feel more connected — and stay longer. Key Takeaways Treat Appreciation Month like a campaign, not a calendar gimmick. When you plan it as a full campaign, it becomes a system for referrals, reviews, and retention — not “extra work for maybe results.” Appreciation changes the story families tell themselves. You can't force people to value what you do. However, you can give them a lens to look through so they notice progress: who their child used to be vs. who they are now. Events drive attention — and attention drives action. People are event-oriented more than ever. So when you package your message as an “event month,” families pay attention in a way they don't during normal weeks. Buddy Week + T-shirts = a referral engine that doesn't feel salesy.A structured “bring-a-friend” week inside the month gives you a clear referral push. Pair it with a T-shirt for both the student and the guest, and you create instant excitement and visibility. Use sponsorships to fund (and profit from) your marketing. Instead of paying out of pocket for shirts, Duane and Allie use community sponsors (with tiered packages) to cover costs and create profit — while building local business relationships. Reviews work better when they're framed as appreciation. A review drive tied to “show your appreciation” feels natural. Add a raffle-ticket system and prizes, and participation goes up. Video testimonials are marketing assets — not one-and-done content. Have instructors and students record short videos on why they appreciate martial arts (and your school specifically). Those clips can be reused on social, email, and your website. Brand the testimonials so they don't become generic. If students say “martial arts helped me,” you're advertising every school in town. Ask them to say your school name (ex: “TriStar Martial Arts helped me…”) so the message stays attached to your brand. “Dead leads” aren't dead — they're future event buyers and referral sources. Even if a guest doesn't enroll, they may attend camps, seminars, parent night outs, or refer someone later because they had a great experience. Education builds reverence — and reverence builds retention. Many families join because you're convenient and professional, not because they understand your legacy. Appreciation Month is your chance to teach them who you are, what you've built, and why it matters. Action Steps for School Owners Pick your month and commit to the campaign. September ties nicely to back-to-school, but you can run it any month. The key is planning early enough to execute. Choose 5 core activities (don't try to do all 30 ideas). Start with a simple stack like: Buddy Week (bring-a-friend) T-shirt incentive Review drive + raffle Weekly “Martial Arts Legend / History” spotlight Video testimonials (students + instructors) Build your sponsor offer (even if it's just 2 tiers). Create a simple sponsorship sheet for local businesses. If you want to copy Duane's approach, use four tiers: Community Champion — $200 Character Builder — $250 Leadership Partner — $300 Warrior Advocate — $400 Make the T-shirt the “ticket” to participation. Give a shirt to the guest and the student who brings them. It's a reward, a uniform, and a walking ad. Run a review raffle instead of “please leave us a review.”Every review = a ticket in the drawing. Pick prizes families actually want (gear credit, private lesson, birthday party discount, etc.). Collect video testimonials with one rule: say your school name. Give families a simple prompt and remind them to name your school in the first sentence. Add one “culture education” piece per week. Rotate options like: Word of the Week (grit, legacy, inspire, strength) Legacy chart (your instructor lineage) Instructor spotlight videos “Did you know?” facts about the owner/head instructor Create a follow-up plan for visitors. Don't just invite them to join. Invite them to the next event: movie night, bully-proofing seminar, parent night out, camp, etc. Additional Resources Mentioned Martial Arts Appreciation Month PDF playbook (Duane + Allie mention they'll share it via Facebook message and link it on the Episode 455 post at SchoolOwnerTalk.com.) Event Journal / Event recap questions (a repeatable set of questions to document what worked, what to change, and the numbers from each event.) Video testimonial collection + transcription workflow (they mention using Dropbox to collect videos and auto-transcribe, then repurposing the transcript with AI.) Movie Night Ideas (from the episode) Allie's “family martial arts friendly” movie list mentioned: 3 Ninjas (series) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (movies) Warriors of Virtue Top Dog (Chuck Norris) Surf Ninjas The Karate Kid (series) Kung Fu Panda (series) Mulan Underdog Kids Big Trouble in Little China Additional Resources Mentioned (Action Items to Implement) Link the MAAM PDF to the Episode 455 post on SchoolOwnerTalk.com. Plan and promote a movie night (example: 3 Ninjas) with pizza/popcorn and a giveaway. Closing Note If you want a campaign that helps families feel the value of martial arts again — and gives them a reason to bring friends, leave reviews, and stay committed — Martial Arts Appreciation Month is a simple, repeatable way to do it.

What if the greatest move of God in our lifetime depends on one generation empowering the next instead of competing with it? Too often, churches preserve methods while neglecting the people God wants to reach.In Acceleration Mandate, Duane Sheriff sits down with Pastor John Nuzzo to explore God's pattern for generational acceleration through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Together they reveal the difference between the unchanging Gospel and the changing methods used to reach each generation, showing why seasoned believers must pass on wisdom, experience, and resources rather than personal preferences. They also address leadership transitions, spiritual legacy, the dangers of division, and why every believer—not just pastors—has a role in accelerating the next generation. Discover how turning hearts across generations can prepare the Church for a great awakening and a lasting Kingdom impact.

What does it mean to be truly resilient? Not just mentally tough, but spiritually grounded in a foundation that cannot be shaken? This Sunday's message dove into Galatians 3:3, where Paul challenges us to examine whether we are living by the Spirit or relying entirely on our own strength. When destabilizing events hit, what gets revealed is where we have placed our trust. And too often, that foundation is something far more fragile than God. The good news is that by beginning with the Spirit, we have access to something the world simply does not. Proverbs 16:3 gives us a practical starting point: commit your works to the Lord, stay open to his direction, and watch how he establishes your path.

This week's Open Mic guest is Duane Simpson, President and CEO of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives. The group held their annual fly-in last week and lobbied congressional leaders to complete a new farm bill and pass ag labor reform legislation,  among other issues. Simpson says farmers are stressed with high input costs and low commodity prices threatening the survival of many operations nationwide. 

"Did you know when you get born again, you become a brand new person inside?"When we experience the miracle of being born again, something profound happens that goes beyond simply trying harder. We become a brand-new person on the inside, completely transformed and united with Christ. Yet many believers never fully understand what took place at salvation, leaving them struggling to grow and mature in their faith.In Episode 15 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the critical transition from conversion to discipleship by uncovering the believer's new identity in Christ. Romans 5 reveals the powerful contrast between who we were in Adam and who we are in Christ. We were not made sinners because of our personal sins, but through Adam's disobedience. In the same way, we are not made righteous through our own good works, but through faith in Jesus Christ, the second Adam. Understanding this truth changes everything. Our identity in Christ connects us to God's purpose, sets the course for our lives, and restores the wholeness that sin fractured.Discover how knowing who you are in Christ empowers you to walk in freedom, grow in spiritual maturity, and fulfill God's purpose for your life.

Salvation is not the finish line in the Christian life—it's just the starting point.In Episode 14 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the doctrine of baptisms, one of the six foundational principles of the Doctrine of Christ found in Hebrews 6. While many believers understand salvation and water baptism, few realize that the New Testament reveals three distinct baptisms that are vital to spiritual growth and maturity.The Holy Spirit baptizes believers into the body of Christ at salvation, water baptism serves as a public declaration of faith and obedience, and Jesus baptizes believers with the Holy Spirit for power and effective witness. This third baptism was fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost and remains available to believers today.The baptism of the Holy Spirit includes a supernatural prayer language that edifies, strengthens, and enables believers to pray mysteries directly to God. If you've ever wondered, "I'm born again—what now?" this episode reveals how to move beyond a defeated Christian life and walk in the fullness of God's provision and power.

Did you know the Bible teaches that there are multiple baptisms?Many Christians may not realize that Scripture speaks of not one but several baptisms, each with an important role in a believer's life. Hebrews 6 lists the doctrine of baptisms among the six elementary principles of Christ that form the foundation of our faith. Understanding these baptisms helps us grow spiritually, mature in our faith, and follow God's plan for our lives.In Episode 13 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the third elementary principle of the Doctrine of Christ—the doctrine of baptisms. First, the Holy Spirit baptizes us into the body of Christ at salvation, making us members of His universal church. Second, we follow Jesus in water baptism as an act of obedience and public profession of our faith—not to be saved, but because we are saved. Third, Jesus baptizes believers with the Holy Spirit, empowering them to serve God and be effective witnesses for Christ.This foundational teaching brings clarity to a subject often clouded by confusion and denominational debate, revealing God's plan for transforming converts into mature disciples of Christ.

On today's show, we're celebrating The Monkees 60th Anniversary with Monkees authors and fans. Charles F. Rosenay, Duane Dimock, Jerry Beck and myself. Hey hey, here they all are. This show was originally supposed to be a panel for this years San Diego Comic Convention, but was unceremoniously canceled. Plus, the usual news from Fun Ideas Productions. 

“Did you know that God is a God of judgment? That's His nature.” Many believers rejoice in God's love, grace, and mercy, yet struggle to understand the biblical doctrine of eternal judgment. Christ has taken God's wrath for those who believe, yet Scripture clearly teaches that every person will one day stand before God and give an account. Understanding this truth is not intended to produce fear, but rather gratitude for the salvation Christ has provided and a sense of urgency to share the gospel with others.In Episode 12 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the sixth and final elementary principle of the Doctrine of Christ—eternal judgment. Drawing from Hebrews 6, Revelation 20, Romans 5, and other key passages, we learn that God's judgment is revealed in different ways. Christ bore God's wrath at the cross. God lovingly chastens His children. Unbelievers will face judgment in the future, and believers will one day stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ.Discover why eternal judgment remains a foundational doctrine, what believers have been saved from, and how understanding God's justice, mercy, and future accountability helps us become mature disciples who live with an eternal perspective.

"I know that something happens supernaturally when people of faith lay hands on people. Things are transmitted. Things are transferred. In Mark 16, Jesus said that believers would lay hands on the sick and they would recover. The power is not in our hands, but in God's presence and power working through yielded vessels."In Episode 11 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the fourth elementary principle of the Doctrine of Christ—the laying on of hands. Few understand the biblical significance of this foundational practice or the role it plays in God's supernatural work through His people.Drawing from the ministry of Jesus, the early church, and examples throughout Scripture, we see how the laying on of hands was used to minister healing, impart spiritual gifts, transfer authority, bless children, and help believers receive the Holy Spirit. Discover how God still works through ordinary believers and why the laying on of hands remains a vital part of Christian growth, ministry, and discipleship.

What does it mean to truly be part of God's house? In "The House of God", Duane Sheriff traces the biblical picture of God's dwelling place—from Jacob's encounter at Bethel to the tabernacle, the temple, Jesus, and finally the Church—to reveal what God has always intended His house to be.At its heart, God's house is built upon two enduring pillars: a deep love for truth and a commitment to prayer. When Jacob awakened at Bethel, he realized he had found the gate of heaven—a place where heaven and earth converged, angels ascended with the needs of earth, and returned with heaven's resources. The stone he anointed pointed prophetically to Jesus, the chief cornerstone upon whom God builds His house.Today, believers are living stones being built together into a spiritual house. We are not meant to live as isolated Christians or consumers seeking comfort, but to gather in truth, prayer, worship, giving, and service. As the Church learns to open the right gates and close the gates of hell, God will prepare and restore His house for a coming harvest. Discover why the Church must become a house of truth rather than deception, prayer rather than complaining, giving rather than taking, and serving rather than being served.

Amazing Race Canada: Season 12 Ep 2 Recap The Amazing Race Canada Season 12, Episode 2 sees Jessica Liese and Dan Heaton take a deep dive into an installment loaded with quirky animal encounters, strategic dilemmas, and surprising teamwork. With kangaroo tasks, express pass drama, and the return of the Desjardins Assist, this episode offers both laughs and a closer look at how teams handle adversity and adapt on the fly. Jessica and Dan walk through the episode's standout moments, including teams navigating the novelty (and challenge) of working with kangaroos, not just cuddling them, but scooping up their droppings for a classic gross-out detour. The Express Pass twist remains in the spotlight, with almost half of them gone after just two weeks. The discussion explores why teams like Ameen & Surria and Eamon and Bec burned their passes early, either for short-term safety or the enticing first-place prize, and how those decisions ripple through the rest of the leg.

“Did you know the Bible teaches us that it is impossible to please God without faith?”In Episode 10 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff explores the second foundational principle in the Doctrine of Christ—faith toward God. Many believers understand faith as an important part of the Christian life, but faith is not merely an option or an addition to Christianity; it is foundational to spiritual growth and maturity.Drawing from Hebrews 11, Romans 5, Ephesians 2, and other key passages, this teaching reveals how faith is directed toward God, not ourselves, our performance, circumstances, politics, or the economy. Faith does not move God; it accesses what God has already provided through His grace. Salvation is by grace through faith, that faith itself is a gift from God, and that faith must be mixed with the Word of God to produce spiritual profit and maturity.Discover the vital relationship between grace and faith and learn how salvation, God's promises, and spiritual growth are received by trusting in His faithfulness rather than relying on human effort.

Guitarist Duane Denison gets ready for Tomahawk's first tour in 13 years and looks back on the band's history in this new interview.

Listen without ads at 8$ a month or up on patreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast SUMMARY This week on Dopey Greatest Hits, Dave officially declares July to be Allman Brothers Month and revisits one of his favorite interviews—with Duane Betts, guitarist, songwriter and son of the legendary Dickey Betts. Before the interview, Dave talks about his lifelong love of “Blue Sky,” reflects on a difficult Patreon Zoom and reminds himself of one of recovery's hardest lessons: restraint of pen and tongue. Papa Smurf contributes an incredible story about selling mushrooms in an Allman Brothers parking lot, getting grabbed by undercover cops and escaping after an oblivious hippie accidentally distracts them. A listener named Jeff also shares a disastrous Phish adventure involving craft beer, moonshine, cocaine, getting lost outside the venue while “Maze” played in the distance, wandering through a locked campground and receiving a possession charge that ultimately introduced him to AA. Then Dave sits down with Duane Betts for an intimate and wide-ranging conversation about growing up inside the Allman Brothers family, touring with his father, living at Cher's Malibu home, learning guitar on the road and finding his own musical identity. Duane opens up about Hodgkin lymphoma, discovering Dilaudid after surgery, the Malibu party scene, Molly, cocaine, crack, black tar heroin and a gram-a-day opiate habit. He recalls smoking heroin-and-cocaine speedballs, flipping a car after scoring drugs, waking up beside a friend who had overdosed and nearly dying after a massive cocaine hit. He also describes arrests, drug court, treatment, Suboxone, relapse, touring with Dawes and eventually finding lasting recovery. Now more than seven years sober, Duane talks about meeting his wife in Jackson Hole, staying grounded through music, hiking, yoga and connection, and continuing the Allman Brothers legacy through his solo work, Palmetto Motel and the Allman Betts Family Revival. It is a story about rock-and-roll history, inherited addiction, devastating loss, recovery and finding a life filled with music, gratitude and purpose. Allman Brothers month continues!   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

There are six elementary principles that form the foundation of our faith, called the Doctrine of Christ, upon which every believer is meant to build their life.In Episode 9 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff reveals why so many believers struggle to grow spiritually. Although they have genuinely been born again, many have never been grounded in the foundational truths that produce a strong, stable faith. Hebrews 5 and 6 show that spiritual maturity is not automatic. Believers either grow forward or drift backward, depending on whether they continue in God's Word and learn to discern good from evil.The first of these foundational doctrines is repentance from dead works. Dead works include both legalistic efforts to earn God's favor and sinful behaviors that contradict our new identity in Christ. True repentance is not about trying to earn God's forgiveness but about renewing our minds, turning from dead works, and living in agreement with who we already are in Christ. Establishing these foundational truths enables believers to grow from spiritual infancy to maturity and remain steadfast in their faith.

This sermon explores the eighth Beatitude: being blessed when persecuted for righteousness' sake. It teaches that opposition is normal for those who follow Jesus and do what is right. Jesus prepares believers to expect soft persecution (mocking, rejection) that can escalate, yet calls them to rejoice because of the kingdom of heaven and great reward awaiting in eternity. The message urges renewing the mind with truth about delayed gratification, God's justice, and the example of the prophets and Jesus Himself, while preparing children to stand firm without compromise.

What happens when prayer becomes more than a religious routine and becomes a powerful partnership with God? Many believers know they should pray, yet struggle because no one has ever taught them how. Prayer was never meant to be begging, complaining, or wishful thinking. It is one of God's primary means of bringing His will to the earth and helping believers grow in spiritual maturity.In Episode 8 of “Born Again, What Now?”, Duane Sheriff teaches why prayer is the fourth spiritual food group revealed in Acts 2:42 and why it is essential for every believer's spiritual development. Drawing from Luke 11, Ephesians 1, and Colossians 1, he explains that it is not enough to simply pray—we must learn to pray effectively according to biblical principles. Through personal testimony and practical teaching, Duane reveals how Jesus taught His disciples to pray, why prayer is a partnership with God, and how believers have been given authority through Christ to bring heaven's reality into earthly circumstances.Learn how to approach God as your Heavenly Father, and gain insight into developing a prayer life that produces wisdom, spiritual understanding, maturity, and lasting fruit.

"God never willed for me to get saved and stuck." Many believers receive Christ, miss a devil's hell, and yet never discover the spiritual nourishment and maturity God intended for them. One of the often-overlooked keys to spiritual growth is found in the third spiritual food group revealed in Acts 2:42: the breaking of bread.In Episode 7 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff teaches the profound significance of communion and why the breaking of bread was central to the life of the early church. Drawing from Acts 2, 1 Corinthians 11, and the biblical pattern of the Passover meal, he explains that communion is far more than a religious ritual. It is a powerful reminder of Christ's life, labor, and love, and serves as both a covenant meal and a witness to the world of Christ's death and coming return.The symbolism of Jesus as our Passover Lamb points to Christ's complete provision, reminding us that His sacrifice secured far more than forgiveness alone. When we break bread, whether in corporate worship or intimate fellowship, we declare to the world that God is real and Jesus is returning. Duane also explores Paul's warning in 1 Corinthians 11 that many remain weak and sick because they fail to discern the Lord's body—both Christ's sacrifice and the church as His body—revealing how communion calls believers into deeper fellowship, greater spiritual awareness, and a fuller understanding of their covenant relationship with Christ.

What happens after we're born again? God designed a spiritual growth track to take believers from conversion to maturity, and one of the keys is fellowship. Not casual Sunday handshakes, but genuine koinonia—the deep, meaningful relationships Scripture calls us to cultivate. Even Adam, living in a perfect garden with a perfect relationship with God, needed companionship. Something powerful happens when believers learn to share and communicate the good things God has done in their lives and the good things that are theirs in Christ. Their faith becomes active and effective. They move beyond passive converts and grow into mature disciples.In Episode 6 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff teaches why fellowship is one of the four basic spiritual food groups revealed in Acts 2:42 and how it plays a vital role in spiritual maturity. While many Christians understand the importance of Bible study, fewer recognize that God created us for meaningful relationships within the body of Christ. As Duane explains, even Adam lived in a perfect world with a perfect relationship with God, yet God declared, "It is not good that you be alone."Discover how fellowship goes beyond casual acquaintances and becomes a powerful environment for discipleship, encouragement, and spiritual growth. Learn how sharing your faith, communicating the good that is in you through Christ Jesus, and building relationships with like-minded believers can strengthen your walk and help you grow from conversion to maturity.

This week we do a quick episode to talk about some results from the past week and to look forward to a big week in sprint car racing here in the state of Ohio. Duane joins us via the phone on his way to Fremont Speedway.

"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Jesus never promised His followers an easy path—but He did promise they would be blessed..In the message "Blessed are the Persecuted," the final episode of the Beatitudes, Duane Sheriff explores why persecution is a normal part of following Christ and how believers can stand firm without fear, compromise, or bitterness. Jesus prepared His disciples to expect opposition for doing what is right, reminding us that faithfulness often brings resistance in a world that rejects God's truth.Discover the difference between suffering for wrongdoing and suffering for righteousness, why soft persecution can prepare us for greater tests of faith, and how God rewards those who remain steadfast. Through passages from Matthew 5, John 15, and 1 Peter, Duane reveals how trials refine our faith, deepen our fellowship with Christ, and strengthen us to live courageously. When we understand the blessed life Jesus described, we can endure opposition with confidence, joy, and an eternal perspective.

Imagine 3,000 people being born again in a single day. That's what happened on the Day of Pentecost. But what happened next? God set a pattern for spiritual growth that takes believers from conversion to maturity in Christ, and this pattern still applies to us today.In Episode 5 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff teaches what he calls the four basic food groups of spiritual maturity. Using Acts 2:42, he explains the growth path the early church followed after 3,000 people were added to the kingdom. Just as physical health requires a balanced diet, spiritual growth requires a steady intake of the apostles' doctrine, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayers.Many Christians genuinely love God but still feel spiritually immature because they have never learned how to feed their inner man. Duane explains that God's Word is spiritual food that nourishes, strengthens, and renews us from the inside. He shows why understanding the New Covenant, having fellowship, the breaking of bread, and learning to pray rightly are essential to becoming a mature disciple. Spiritual growth happens when we consistently feed on the four spiritual food groups God designed for our maturity.

Salvation is the beginning of our spiritual journey, not the destination. But then what? What are the next steps, and how do we grow from being born again into mature disciples of Jesus Christ?In Episode 4 of "Born Again, What Now?", Duane Sheriff teaches why a good church is essential to spiritual growth and maturity. Drawing from Matthew 16, Matthew 28, Hebrews 10, and other key passages, he explores the church's role as the pillar and ground for truth, the necessity of biblical teaching, and the importance of relationships.When Peter declared that Jesus was the Christ, Jesus revealed that He would build His church upon that revelation and equip His people with keys to the kingdom. These keys represent spiritual authority, discernment, and the ability to walk victoriously in a fallen world. Jesus' Great Commission was not merely to make converts but to make disciples through teaching and training.Whether through a healthy local church or a trusted teaching ministry, believers need a growth track rooted in God's Word. Discover why a good church is one of God's primary tools for helping believers move from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity and become equipped to help others do the same.

Are you born again but still feel discouraged? Many believers receive Christ, experience a genuine transformation, and yet never discover the growth, freedom, and maturity God intended for them. Salvation is only the beginning of the Christian journey. Without proper discipleship and a foundation in God's Word, spiritual hunger can turn into confusion, frustration, and defeat.In Episode 3 of “Born Again, What Now?”, Duane Sheriff shares his powerful testimony—from being born again at seven years old, to years of confusion, disappointment, and spiritual struggle, and ultimately to a life-changing revelation of God's grace. Through the loss of his brother, unanswered questions, and seasons of defeat, Duane reveals how a lack of discipleship left him stuck as a convert instead of growing into a mature disciple.Everything changed when he encountered the truth of his identity in Christ and understood the finished work of Jesus in a new way. This message highlights the importance of foundational biblical truths and reveals how understanding the gospel of grace—what God has done for us rather than what we can do for Him—transforms believers from converts into disciples who can grow, mature, and stand strong through life's challenges.

Since the late nineteenth century, amusement parks have been providing countless hours of enjoyment for people all around the world. Often driven by the latest technology and advances in mechanical engineering, the thrill rides at parks like Disney Land, Great America, and other independent parks offer a controlled environment to experience terror and excitement. While these rides, and the parks in general, are very safe and held to strict safety standards, there are times when the unthinkable happens—a cable snaps, a safety harness breaks—and the once safe ride becomes a nightmare for passengers. Far more often than not, tragic amusement park accidents are the result of human foolishness or, far less often, operator error. But other times, they are a bizarre fluke; a one in a million mechanical problem no one saw coming. Either way, the results can be shocking, horrifying, and even deadly.
