Grammar hounds might despise it, but “like” is both ubiquitous and necessary in our everyday speech. Megan C. Reynolds, editor at Dwell magazine, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss one little word that defines so much of modern speech: like – from approval on social media to, like, the way we all casually talk today – and why we should all give it a second look. Her book is “Like: A History of the World's Most Hated (and Misunderstood) Word.” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Today's Promise: John 15:9 If there is one word that summarizes the Gospel, it's love. From the beginning, love was the central theme of Christianity. God loves you so much that He gave His Son. Jesus said, as much as God loves Him, He loves us. Now here is the twist. Jesus loves you as much as God loves Him. Jesus invites you to live in His love. To "abide" is to connect or rest. We are to rest and "make ourselves at home" in the love of Christ. As you abide in His love, His love flows through you to the world around you.

Dwell - Part 4Secure Days | Psalm 91:1-8Preaching: Derek Banker1. God Secures with His Presence2. God Shields with His Faithfulness3. God Saves with Justice

Series: N/AService: Sun AM WorshipType: SermonSpeaker: Bill SanchezSummary Renewing the Mind through Joy and MeditationInstructor: Bill SanchezDate: 2025-08-24 Sunday AM WorshipChapter/Topic: Renewing the Mind through Joy and Meditation on Godly Things

From Genesis 1-2 we learn we were created for the presence of God. Therein is our joy, purpose, life. There is not something else. There is not a second and a third thing. To be in and enjoy a right relationship with God is life and life eternal. But Genesis 3, we sinned. Sin makes us entirely not like God and His presence, His heaven. It makes us a life in rebellion. Sin is not just rules we broke, but nature of unholy rebellion. How can the very unholy come into the Holy? When you hear David say, 'Lord,' don’t hear a title or a salutation. Hear a cry from the depths of his soul. Who, my Lord, can dwell with you? Who can enjoy intimacy with their Creator? And then we get an answer, ten actually. Ten answers, character qualities, actions that answer who can live with God.

Why is trusting in the Lord worthwhile? In this message, pastor Jeremy Writebol exposes us to the promises and power of God's protective care for his people.

The word "like" has been around for centuries, but it reached a new cultural prominence in the 1980s, partially thanks to Frank Zappa's song "Valley Girl." Since then, "like" has taken on a life of its own, inspiring strong emotions. This hour, we look at the meaning and evolution of "like." Plus, how movies like the now 30-year-old Clueless have impacted our language. GUESTS: Megan C. Reynolds: An editor at Dwell and author of Like: A History of the English Language’s Most Hated (and Misunderstood) Word Kory Stamper: Lexicographer and author of Word By Word: The Secret Life of Dictionaries Veronica Litt: English Professor and author of Ugh!

Life can feel like one long pursuit of happiness that never quite hits the mark. This message from Psalm 90 explores how God provides lasting relief, joy, and purpose, even in the midst of our struggles. If you're feeling pressure from all sides or questioning the meaning of your work, this is your reminder that God's presence changes everything. 

Psalm 15 asks the question, “Who may dwell in the Lord's presence?” It paints a picture of the kind of life that is welcome before God. Not as a checklist to earn His favor, but as a portrait of a person transformed by His grace. This psalm points us toward a life of personal, relational, moral, and financial integrity, love, and holiness, fulfilled perfectly in Jesus Christ.Here are some things we'll learn from Psalm 15:· We'll learn there's a single question that shapes every other decision in life.· We'll see clearly how a sinful person can be reconciled to a holy God.· We'll see how Psalm 15 is a portrait of a life changed by God, rather than a prescription for earning God's love or favor.· We'll explore what it means to live with personal, relational, moral, and financial integrity before God and people.· We'll learn how to recognize and resist gossip and slander in ways that protect and honor others.· We'll hear how Jesus fulfills Psalm 15 perfectly and invites us to walk with Him in everyday holiness.Support our mission and learn more at: www.alloflife.churchGive to the work of the gospel here: alloflife.churchcenter.com/giving
