Join Micah, Aaron, and Jules as we discuss the building of the tabernacle and vestments for the priests in Exodus 25-28. Why do these ancient descriptions matter for our own perception of our faith? How is God's presence mediated through these objects in the tabernacle and in our own religious practices? And how is the early church reimagining the ark of the covenant as Mother Mary--and how can that reenvisioning of the story help us reimagine our role in our own times?

Concluding our deep dive into the book of Revelation, we arrive at Chapter 21, where the New Covenant is fully realized. Pastor Mark explains why the "new heaven and new earth" means the curse is reversed and suffering is entirely abolished.This message focuses on the obsolescence of the Old Covenant. We explore the meaning of the New Jerusalem (the perfected Bride) and the profound statement: There is no Temple in the city! The Lamb is the Temple, the Light, and the guarantee of eternal access. Listen to find out why your final hope is not in a future geography, but in the permanent presence of Christ.
By Elias Vazquez - The sermonette explores the analogy of the heart as a home for Christ, inspired by Robert Boyd Munger's book “My Heart, Christ's Home.” It guides listeners through various “rooms” of the heart, each representing different aspects of life, and asks whether Christ is merely a guest or the true
In this new episode of the A is for Architecture Podcast, writer and organiser, Alva Gotby, discusses her recent latest book, Feeling at Home: Transforming the Politics of Housing, published by Verso in January this year.Feeling at Home is rooted in Marxist feminism, and approaches housing as more-than-shelter, but rather as a key site for reproducing labour power under capitalism, perpetuating all the inequalities. Alva extends this critique, proposing what is called family abolitionism, arguing for the collectivisation of domestic life the better to dismantle the nuclear family as a capitalist institution. But Alva isn't also pleading for nostalgia and a return to the paternalistic state but proposes instead collective alternatives that prioritize marginalised people and ecological sustainability.How'd you like them apples?Alva is on (but not much on) Instagram and X, and the book is linked above. Alva is in various places online discussing this book, and her previous one, They Call It Love: The Politics of Emotional Life.+Music credits: Bruno Gillick

11-9-25 sermon by Naomi Grebe. Today Naomi brings a message about Dwelling with God.
Introduction Appreciation for Brother David for managing the video. Gratitude for the Wednesday night message and how it spoke to Pastor Tommy on Thursday evening. Prayer request for the message to touch hearts. Acknowledging that some may assume everyone is ready, but God knows each person's soul. Personal testimony of getting saved unexpectedly. Encouragement to obey God and trust Him as Lord and Savior. Reminder of the inevitability of death and the importance of being ready to meet God. Reference to Brother Bobby's scripture reading. Mark 5:1-6 Reading of Mark 5:1-6, the story of Legion. "They came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes." "And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit." "Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains." "Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him." "And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones." "But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him." Prayer for the word to bring conviction and faith to unbelievers. Appreciation for the personal aspect of the brother's Wednesday sermon. The Holy Spirit touched Pastor Tommy's heart concerning the tombs. Are You Dwelling in the Tombs? Question posed: "Are you dwelling in the tombs?" Even saved individuals can have a propensity to return to the tombs (dead stuff, dark places). There is no peace, comfort, or fellowship in the tombs. The world is lost in dark places. A tomb is a place without light. Born-again individuals have received the light of Jesus Christ and should not dwell among the tombs. Tombs are full of people bound with fetters and chains, unable to free themselves. True freedom comes through being born again. Three Things About the Tombs No Light Tombs are dark, signaling that they are not a place for God's people. Jesus crossed the sea specifically for Legion. Personal testimony of Jesus showing up for Pastor Tommy and saving him. No Life The world is full of dead places. Before salvation, individuals are dead in their sins and trespasses. The tombs will give up their dead (those who are dead to Christ). Salvation is necessary to escape the tomb. No Warmth Analogy of an old cave near Big Cully: turning off the flashlight reveals a coldness that sinks into the skin. Spiritual places can be cold to God, lacking light and life. The tombs of this world are real, and one can get stuck in them. Coming Out of the Tombs Legion saw Jesus coming. The Holy Ghost can do what humans cannot. One must see Jesus coming and admit to being in the tomb, unable to break free from bondage. God can save individuals today, just as He saved Legion and Pastor Tommy. When the Holy Ghost comes, it is unmistakable. To be saved, one must turn from sin, darkness, deadness, and coldness. Legion came out of the tomb. Giving up worldly things is worth it when compared to what God gives. One can drink from God's fountain, which is superior to anything in the tombs. Legion's Transformation Legion went to meet God. The devils possessing him were named Legion, inhabiting 2,000 swine. The devils feared Christ and knew who He was. Legion fell before Jesus. Legion's dwelling place was among the tombs, a choice to live in darkness. People of God have light and life, which can make those in darkness uncomfortable. People live in darkness because their deeds are evil, and light exposes their evilness. Lost people often avoid church because the light exposes their evil. Believers are the light of Christ wherever they go. Life in the Tombs

On today's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about how long we allow ourselves to dwell on things that aren't serving us; in other words, where we're placing our attention.How often do you actually notice where your mind is at any given moment? And how often do you find yourself ruminating on something that isn't making you feel good? Perhaps you had an argument with a friend, or maybe you're worried about an email from your boss. Are you still thinking about it three days later?Lucy and I talk about why it's so incredibly important to bring more awareness to our thoughts, and to consciously choose to shift our focus onto something else, rather than obsess over things that are completely out of our control.Of course we need to feel our feelings - and of course some things are much bigger and more serious than others - but in the day to day of life, how long do you tend to dwell on a conversation, event, or incident that is making you feel bad?We hope you'll find something useful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy xDownload The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.

Dr. Daniel Ragusa speaks at the Reformed Forum Annual Theology Conference, held at Lakeland Church in Gurnee, Illinois on September 27, 2025. Dr. Ragusa, focuses on the dark period of Israel's exile and how it illuminates the deep human longing to return to God's presence, which had been lost due to their rebellion. Dr. Ragusa first establishes the devastating nature of exile by contrasting it with the desired state of dwelling in God's house, a theme illustrated by the pilgrimage described in Psalm 23. He references the Heidelberg Catechism to frame the Christian experience as moving from the "valley of exile" (sin and misery) up to the "mountain of God" (righteousness and everlasting life) through the work of the "mountain ascending mediator," Jesus Christ. Crucially, even in the midst of the exile's darkness, God's hope continues to shine through the prophets, promising restoration, which is ultimately fulfilled in the gospel and glory of Jesus Christ.

Todaywe are continuing to look at Ephesians 2:18-22. In these verses, we find thatGod's purpose for the church, God's purpose for Jew and Gentile. God's purposefor every human being is to know that you are of tremendous value to God. Itdoesn't matter whether you're a Jew, whether you're a Palestinian, whetheryou're called a Christian, whether you're called a Muslim, Hindu, a Buddhist, aRussian, an American, a Chinese, or any other nationality for that matter. Itdoesn't matter your ethnic background or your racial background. It doesn'tmatter whether you're rich or poor. You are of tremendous value to God. Everyhuman being was created in the image of God. That means we have personality.That means we can think, we have a will, we have emotions. Every human beinghas all these things because we're created in the image of God. God's plan andpurpose is that we have peace with one another and that we get along with oneanother and that we love one another. The great commandment is to love God withall your heart, soul, and mind. Alongside of this first and great commandmentis the second commandment, which is the proof that we truly love God, that welove our neighbors as ourselves. No matter who our neighbor is.Wehave been created with and for something special. Every human being, no matteryour background and religion, no matter who you are, where you live, whereyou're from, or what you've been taught, you have been created with eternity inyour heart (Ecclesiastes 3:11). In thelast verses in Ephesians 2, Paul reminds us, “For through Him we both haveaccess by one Spirit to the Father”. Yes, we can have access to the creatorGod and Father of the universe. You can have access to the God, already beingworshiped as “the unknown God” that many are still looking for. But He can only be found “through”Jesus Christ alone. Myfriend, only then can you enjoy personal peace and experience unity with thosearound you. Now, therefore, we're no longer strangers or foreigners, butfellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God (v. 19).Verse 20 tells us that this unity is: “built on the foundation of theapostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone.” Paulsaid in 1 Corinthians 3:6:11, “I planted. He says Apollos watered. But Godgave the increase." He then goes on to say, "For no other foundation can anyone laythan that which is laid, which is Christ Jesus." WhenPaul said, "I laid the foundation," he says earlier in 1Corinthians 2:2, “For I determined not to know anything among you exceptJesus Christ and Him crucified”. Christ is the foundation and He's thechief cornerstone of Psalm 118:22. This is the chief cornerstone which thebuilders rejected and is often referred to in the New Testament as in verse 20.The “cornerstone” binds a building together. Nowwe are part of His temple, the church of Jesus Christ, the universal church,the church which is His body. Oh, how wonderful to be a part of something sospecial and that's eternal. Nations come and go, institutions come and go, butone thing will last, for eternity, and that is the body of Jesus Christ, Hischurch. Today, you can be a part of His church by placing your faith, not in areligion but in a person, Jesus Christ! A religion didn't die for you! OnlyJesus Christ did! Thatis what this chapter is about. We're separated from God by our sin, but Jesusdied to give us eternal life. We can by faith trust Him and enter into ourunion with Him and with one another today. Would you do that? Would you trustChrist? And then if you know Christ, if you're in Christ, then as a follower ofChrist, tell others. Today,would you tell someone about this hope, this faith you can have that changesand transforms everything and brings you peace with God and with others. GodBless!
What if the answer to West Michigan's—and America's—housing shortage isn't massive new developments, but small homes tucked into the neighborhoods we already live in? In this episode of the Rental Property Owner & Real Estate Investor Podcast, Brian Hamrick talks with Nathan Biller, accredited ADU specialist and co-founder of My Backyard Build. Nathan has built his own ADU, permitted several more, and is helping shape local policy as a member of Grand Rapids' ADU Task Force. You'll learn: What exactly an ADU is (granny flats, carriage houses, basement conversions, detached units, and more). Why investors should consider ADUs—from the math behind rental income to the 1% rule and reduced land costs. Local and national trends—how California, Portland, Seattle, and Denver have embraced ADUs, and what's happening in Michigan cities like Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, and Traverse City. Financing and cost considerations—real numbers on what it takes to build an ADU and how investors are paying for them. Practical challenges and solutions—utilities, zoning, setbacks, neighbor relations, and historic district restrictions. Future opportunities—policy changes and task force recommendations that could make ADUs more accessible and profitable. Whether you call them granny flats, backyard cottages, or carriage houses, ADUs are becoming one of the most practical solutions to today's housing crisis—and a smart investment strategy for rental property owners.

Dwelling with God isn’t just a promise for the afterlife—it’s an invitation for every day here on Earth. Psalm 27:4 reminds us that we can seek God’s presence, gaze upon His beauty, and live fully in His house all the days of our lives. Like the ancient Israelites, we can cultivate a life that delights in God’s nearness, experiencing His presence in the everyday moments of life. Highlights The ancient Israelites focused on dwelling with God daily, not just awaiting the afterlife. Psalm 27:4 emphasizes seeking God’s presence and enjoying His beauty each day. God’s Word offers guidance to live in His presence, cultivating intimacy with Him. Modern Christians can learn to prioritize daily communion with God over merely anticipating Heaven. Dwelling with the Lord transforms ordinary life into a space of worship, peace, and purpose. Experiencing God now strengthens faith and prepares hearts for eternity. Living in God’s presence is a daily choice—actively seeking Him in our routines. Join the Conversation How do you intentionally dwell with God in your daily life? What practices help you experience His presence right here, right now? Share your reflections using #DwellingWithGod #FaithInThePresent #LivingWithTheLord.

New Yorkers will see six citywide ballot measures when they head to the polls on Tuesday. One of them, Proposition 5—aims to bring the city's land-use process into the digital age. WFUV's Andrew McDonald spoke with campaign director Amit Singh Bagga to learn how a single online map could help speed up affordable housing projects across the five boroughs. The mayoral election is coming up, and WFUV is breaking down the six ballot measures voters will see on Tuesday. WFUVs Nora Malone explains measure 6, which would switch NYC election years to national election years. If you have extra space in your New York City home, you can now turn it into an apartment. The City calls these spaces accessory dwelling units, or ADUs. To learn what this means for New Yorkers, WFUV's Joseph Vizza spoke to Dan Garodnick, the Director of New York's Department of City Planning.

St. Jude offers us an example of how we are to become dwelling places of the Lord Jesus. When we follow his commands, Jesus resides in us and our love overflows and we must share his love with those who do not yet know him, like St. Jude. This blogcast explores “A Dwelling Place" from the Ad Infinitum blog, written by Victor David and read by Sarah Scalfaro.I have always had a special admiration for St. Jude. Growing up, my home parish was the Church of St. Jude. I can still remember my mom telling me to pray to the saint whenever I felt that I was facing an impossible task. Legend says that since his name was so close to that of Judas, many people did not pray to him, for fear of confusing the two. To show his thanks to people who did remember him, St. Jude was willing to be extra fervent in bringing the faithful's requests to the Lord. In John's Gospel, towards the end of the Last Supper, Christ observes that soon he will no longer be with his disciples, but that he will soon reveal himself. Jude asks Jesus, “Master, [then] what happened that you will reveal yourself to us and not to the world?” (John 14:22) Our Lord responded, “Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him” (John 14:23). He is telling his disciple, and us, that whoever holds God's teachings in his or her heart and acts accordingly is filled with the Spirit of the Lord.The Feast of Sts. Simon and Jude remind us all to be God's dwelling place. While we do not know much about the lives of either saint, tradition tells us that Simon was called the Zealot in the gospels and Acts (Lk 6:15; Acts 1:13). There is some debate to whether this means he was an ardent disciple of Jesus or that he was a former member of the Zealot sect that advocated for the violent overthrow of the Roman occupation. If the latter is to be believed, then Simon truly demonstrates that no one is beyond becoming a dwelling place of the Lord. The Zealots were known to use violence to advocate noncompliance with the Roman authorities. Nevertheless, tradition and legend hold that Simon helped to spread the Good News, peacefully, through much of the Middle East. It was that conversion of heart that truly made Simon a dwelling place of the Lord.Legend tells us that both saints suffered martyrdom while spreading the faith in Syria. Tradition holds that Simon was either crucified or sawed in half while Jude was clubbed to death or beheaded by an axe. Yet, in the face of adversity and hostility, they continued to profess the faith that had been revealed to them until the very end. So, the question remains: How do we become God's dwelling place? The answer is simple – follow what Jesus told St. Jude at the Last Supper: love the Lord and keep His Word. When we accept and follow the Word of God, He truly and fully enters into our lives. By keeping His word on our minds and in our hearts, we make ourselves His dwelling place. Sts. Simon and Jude truly became dwelling places of God. What happens when God resides with someone? He or she becomes so full of God's love that it must be spread. That is what happened to Sts. Simon and Jude and that is what is possible for all of us. By following their example, we, too, can be an outpouring of God's love to others and help build up His kingdom. *This post was originally posted October 27, 2015*--The St. Jude Shrine is located in the heart of Baltimore, Maryland, and has been operated and staffed by the Pallottine Fathers and Brothers for over 80 years.

“He weakened my strength in the way.” – Psalm Life's Waves and God's Sovereignty Referencing Psalm 42:7, “Deep calls unto deep,” he explains that it portrays wave after wave of life's challenges, not mystical depths. Sometimes, trouble comes in relentless succession — one wave after another — yet God uses even pain, sickness, and discomfort to shape us. We often blame the devil, but sometimes it's the Lord doing deep work in us. He reminds the congregation that when we gave our lives to Christ, we surrendered the right to run our own lives. “We said, ‘You get to call the shots.' ” Psalm 84 – Dwelling in God's Presence The message centers on Psalm 84, portraying the believer's longing for God's house and presence amid a fallen world. “How lovely is Your tabernacle, O Lord of hosts.” Believers must live in the world but not of it, finding their refuge not in wealth, approval, or comfort — but in God's presence. Even the sparrow finds a home near His altar — showing that everyone, humble or lowly, is welcome in His presence. The pastor urges believers to maintain a “secret place” — a daily sanctuary of prayer and fellowship with God. We need His manifest presence, not just His omnipresence. Strength in the Pilgrimage Psalm 84:5 – “Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage.” True strength comes from the Lord, not self. The Christian life is a pilgrimage, requiring perseverance and endurance — “a journey, not a sprint.” Like Noah, Abraham, and Jesus, we must walk faithfully even when the outcome seems far away. “Decide yesterday that you're not going to quit today.” The Valley of Baka – Digging Wells Psalm 84:6 describes the Valley of Baka, a place of weeping, decay, and death. Spiritually, it represents the world's brokenness. Believers are called to dig wells — to bring life, truth, and hope where there is despair. Each Christian has a circle of influence (family, workplace, community) where God expects them to “dig wells” for others. He contrasts Absalom, who built a monument to himself, with Jacob, who dug a well. “The statue is gone; the well still flows.” The challenge: be an effective well-digger whose influence blesses others long after you're gone. From Strength to Strength Psalm 84:7 – “They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.” This phrase means believers become an army within themselves because God dwells in them. Strength increases through intimacy with God, not worldly alliance. Avoid letting worldly media and negativity shape your mind — renew your thoughts in God's Word. Illustrations include: A soldier in WWII saved by a spider's web God used for protection. A survivor of the Titanic quoting Psalm 91 as God delivered him. These show that God's care extends to the smallest details for those who trust Him. Staying Coupled with the Lord Psalm 84:11 – “No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.” The pastor explains that “uprightly” in Hebrew (tāmîm) means “to stay coupled” — like train cars joined together. We don't have to be perfect; we just have to stay connected to God. Whether rusty or shiny, the only train cars that move are the ones still coupled. “If you'll stay coupled with Me, I won't withhold any good thing from you.” The Final Call – Dig Wells, Stay Coupled, Trust God Believers are called to: Remain coupled to God through every trial. Commit to the pilgrimage — no turning back. Dig wells in dry, dying places. Trust God through both good and hard seasons. “Once you dig a well in Christ, it will always have water in it.” The sermon closes with an altar call to: Renew one's commitment to Christ's work, Receive strength to influence others, and Begin or restore a relationship with Jesus. Key Theme: God is calling His people to intimacy, endurance, and influence — to stay coupled, keep digging wells, and bring living water into a dying world.

We trace Ezra 2's genealogy to show how God keeps promises in detail, how exile shapes identity, and why building God's house still begins with His presence. We challenge counterfeit labels from culture, address disappointment in service, and invite a fresh return to worship in spirit and truth.• God's calendar through Passover, Pentecost, Tabernacles as a frame for presence• Babylon as culture naming us and competing identities to resist• Mordecai's name as a sign of false labels carried into the rebuild• The Levites' low return and why satisfaction must not govern contribution• Samaria's mixed story, missing Prophets, and Jesus' way to minister hope• True worship moved from mountains to hearts—Spirit and truth• Practical call to bring what's missing and build, not spectate

“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” - 2 Timothy 1:7When it comes to investing, wisdom means keeping emotions in check. Fear, greed, overconfidence, and regret can all derail sound decisions. Dr. Art Rainer joins us today to share four ways emotions ruin smart investing—and how you can avoid those traps.Dr. Art Rainer is the founder of the Institute for Christian Financial Health and Christian Money Solutions. He is a regular contributor here at Faith & Finance and the author of Money in the Light of Eternity: What the Bible Says about Your Financial Purpose.Don't Let Emotions Derail Your InvestmentsWhen it comes to investing, emotions can be your worst enemy. Allowing emotions to guide your investment decisions will most likely lead you to buy high and sell low. That's the opposite of building a solid retirement fund.So how can investors avoid the emotional traps that derail wise investing? Here are four common ways emotions can ruin sound investment strategies.1. Focusing on the Present Instead of the FutureThe stock market fluctuates daily, sometimes even hourly. Many investors get caught in the drama of short-term swings. But we must remind ourselves that we're not investing for today, we're investing for the future.Keeping your eyes fixed on long-term goals helps put temporary volatility in perspective. The market may dip, but over time, patience and consistency are what build wealth.2. Letting Fear Take ControlFear often shows up during a market downturn. In 2008, as markets plummeted, many investors panicked and withdrew their money. Later, most admitted that the decision was a mistake.In fact, steady contributions during down markets actually allow for the purchase of more shares at lower prices—a benefit to long-term investors. This is a process called “dollar-cost averaging”. Dollar-cost averaging is an investing strategy where you contribute a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of market conditions. Over time, this helps reduce the impact of market volatility by buying more shares when prices are low and fewer when prices are high.Fear may feel protective, but it usually leads to missed opportunities.3. Becoming Overconfident in a Rising MarketJust as fear hurts during downturns, overconfidence can be just as dangerous when markets rise. We saw this during the dot-com bubble in 2000 and again in 2020.As stock prices climb, inexperienced investors often rush in, assuming the market is “easy money.” They may chase riskier investments without understanding the dangers, setting themselves up for painful losses when the bubble bursts.4. Dwelling on RegretRegret over past decisions is natural, but it can tempt us to overcorrect. For example, selling too soon because of a bad memory from the last downturn—or holding too long trying to “make up” for past mistakes.Instead of being trapped by regret, let past experiences guide wiser choices without driving reactionary ones.The Bible tells us that saving is wise, but it also cautions against letting fear or greed rule our hearts. Wise investing requires patience, discipline, and trust in God's provision—not reactionary emotions.Get Help From a Certified Christian Financial CounselorFor those struggling with debt, budgeting, or saving for the future, Dr. Rainer recommends connecting with a Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC). These professionals are trained to help individuals and couples align their finances with biblical principles.You can search for a counselor in your area at ChristianFinancialHealth.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm trying to help someone who has three credit card debts that have gone to collections.

By Robin S Webber - As we begin this festival, I think it is important to ask a basic question: What spiritual lessons can we as New Covenant Christians derive from festivals initially embedded in the Old Testament section of “God-breathed” divine scripture?
