Today we polish off our five-part series called, “Greater!” And pastor Ed will suggest adding to this year Greater Remembrance. We'll recall a time when Samuel took a stone, set it up, and called it “Ebenezer.” It would help the people remember God's faithfulness.

This week we're talking Season 2, Episode 3: “Ebenezer Sprague,” the episode that asks the timeless question: What if Scrooge ran a frontier bank? Walnut Grove finally gets a bank, and everyone's excited—until the new banker arrives and immediately says “no” to literally everyone. Loans? No. Hope? No. Smiles? Absolutely not.Enter Laura, who goes fishing and accidentally becomes the only human Ebenezer Sprague doesn't hate. With no financial agenda and zero awareness of adult boundaries, Laura chips away at his icy exterior. Progress! But then Pa applies for a loan, and Sprague jumps to the wild conclusion that Laura has been running a long con. (Because yes, Laura Ingalls: criminal mastermind.)Laura is crushed, Sprague is grumpy, Pa looks ridiculously hot in long johns, and everyone learns a valuable lesson about trust, cynicism, and why you should maybe not accuse a child of emotional manipulation. It's the epitome of what Little House is all about. We laugh, we sigh, and we marvel at how Little House made frontier banking dramatic—and somehow still heartwarming.Then, join us on Patreon where we talk about a very important subject: Teeth! Yes.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for January 16th Publish Date:  January 16th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, January 16th and Happy Birthday to Albert Pujols I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal 50th Annual Kennesaw/Big Shanty Festival Community holds out hope for Ted's Montana Grill on Marietta Square Cobb advances 2028 SPLOST, sets community meetings Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on raw milk All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 6 STORY 1: 50th Annual Kennesaw/Big Shanty Festival  Mark your calendars—April 18 and 19 is the 50th Annual Kennesaw/Big Shanty Festival, brought to you by Superior Plumbing. It’s all happening in downtown Kennesaw, with hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. What’s in store? Over 250 arts and crafts booths, fair food galore, a beer garden, kids’ activities, and live acoustic music in the food court all weekend. Don’t miss the Georgia Grown Member Village, showcasing local goods from across the state. Scott Thompson of Brother Mojo will play at the 1885 Grill food court, while the United Bankshares Amphitheater and Main Street’s entertainment stage will feature local dance groups, school choirs, and more. Admission’s free, and parking’s available at Adams Park, Kennesaw First Baptist, and Swift-Cantrell Park, with shuttles running from Swift-Cantrell. Questions? Call 770-423-1330 or email missy@jrmmanagement.com. STORY 2: Community holds out hope for Ted's Montana Grill on Marietta Square  So, Ted’s Montana Grill is out. The long-vacant lot at 77 North Park Square stays empty, and the bison burgers? Not happening—at least for now. CEO George McKerrow, a Cobb local, said the decision came after a wave of public backlash. “In 50 years in this business, I’ve never seen this kind of vitriol,” he said. But here’s the twist: the tide on social media had actually shifted. By the time Ted’s pulled out, most comments were supportive. Even Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin invited McKerrow to walk the Square and reconsider. The lot’s been an eyesore since 2010, and Councilman Johnny Walker, who’s been pushing for something—anything—to fill the space, is frustrated. “If Ted’s doesn’t come back, it could be years before anyone else steps up,” he said. The $5 million project was ready to go: a 4,311-square-foot building designed to match the Square’s historic charm. But now? It’s back to square one. STORY 3: Cobb advances 2028 SPLOST, sets community meetings  Cobb County’s 2028 SPLOST plan is officially in motion. On Tuesday, commissioners gave a unanimous thumbs-up to a preliminary list of projects, kicking off months of public input. What’s on the table? Everything from new fire stations and libraries to pedestrian safety upgrades and a $30 million aquatic center. The total? A hefty $790 million. Chair Lisa Cupid called it a balancing act: “Every dollar has a constituency. We need projects that move the county forward but also maintain the basics—roads, public safety, services.” Nine community meetings are set through March, giving residents a chance to weigh in before the final vote in April. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 6 STORY 4: Addison Elementary School principal charged with DUI  Addison Elementary Principal Jill Spiva was arrested Thursday for DUI after a crash near the school, according to Cobb County Police. The wreck happened around 4:45 p.m. at Ebenezer and Sandy Plains roads, just minutes from Addison. Officers said Spiva appeared intoxicated and was at fault for the crash. A half-empty bottle of Smirnoff vodka was reportedly found in her car, per WSB-TV. Spiva refused sobriety and blood tests, prompting a judge to issue a warrant for a blood draw. She’s facing charges of DUI, open container, and failure to maintain lane. The district acknowledged the incident but declined to comment on her status. STORY 5: Mount Paran Christian enter apparel agreement with Nike and BSN Sports Mount Paran Christian School just announced a big win for its athletics program—a multi-year partnership with Nike and BSN SPORTS. Translation? Top-tier gear and branded apparel for student-athletes, coaches, and the entire MPC sports community. Nike will now be the official provider of athletic apparel and equipment, while BSN SPORTS steps in as the school’s brand distributor. “This partnership is huge,” said Athletic Director Mike Walker. “It’s about giving our athletes the best—gear that matches their heart and hustle.” The deal also lowers costs for families, sharpens team branding, and fuels MPC’s mission to compete at a championship level. FALCONS: The Atlanta Falcons officially introduced Matt Ryan as their new president of football on Tuesday, and honestly, it feels like a full-circle moment. At the press conference in Flowery Branch, Ryan—who spent 14 seasons as the face of the franchise—spoke about his “unfinished business” with the team. “Since I was drafted, my mission’s been the same: help this organization win championships. We came close, had some success, but I believe we’ll get there,” he said. After retiring and working as a CBS Sports analyst, Ryan said he wasn’t looking for a new job—unless it was with the Falcons. Now, he’ll report directly to owner Arthur Blank, focusing on hiring a head coach and GM who share a unified vision. I'm Keith Ippolito and that’s your MDJ Sports Minute. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on raw milk We’ll have closing comments after this.

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!It's in our nature, I think, to want to leave something permanent behind, something people will see and take note of. This week we'll discuss the monument Samuel left and how it has inspired hymn singers and preachers for decades; a president who chose no memorial at all over one made under false pretenses; one of the most famous landscapes in film and how it stays the same year after year; and the monument you can build on your game table and in your own life.Check out Hal on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@halhammons9705Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.

As we move forward after raising our Ebenezer and remembering all of God's faithfulness, Pastor Marcus draws from the ancient Shema prayer to share a transformative insight about love and obedience. Through his endearing kindergarten story of running from "cooties," he illuminates Jesus' profound answer about life's greatest commandment: Love God with everything you are. Drawing from Mark 12 and Deuteronomy 6, Marcus reveals how God's love comes first—not as a demanding rulebook, but as a grace-filled invitation to love Him back through joyful obedience. Pastor Marcus hopes the "Love God, Love People" series will revolutionize how you view your relationship with God and that you might discover what makes the journey—even with its bumps and bruises—totally worth it.

The Lord who "thus far" has helped you Will help you all your journey through. "When the words 'thus far' are read in heaven's light, what glorious and miraculous prospects they reveal to our grateful eyes!" —C.H. Spurgeon "Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen and called its name Ebenezer; for he said, 'Till now the Lord has helped us.'” (1 Sam. 7:12, ESV) "Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Eben-ezer, saying, Hitherto hath the Lord helped us." (1 Sam. 7:12, KJV) What is your "Thus Far"…this past year?

Recuerda que todo lo que tienes y lo que eres es gracias a Dios

Pastor Ramiro CameroIglesia 316

The first reward of seeking and seeing God is not material things, but God Himself. Because God is Spirit, our relationship with Him is not casual or mechanical. When dealing with a spirit being, reverence and consistency is importance. Knowing that God is, determines how we approach Him. Our approach must be shaped by the quality of His essence. Reverence must never be absent when we come before Him.Christianity is not merely practiced outwardly; it is done in the Spirit and by the Spirit. Certain actions can encourage or attract spirit beingsFaith always operates within the will of God. You cannot separate true acts of faith from God's sovereignty and mercy. Faith is not forcing outcomes; faith is trusting God.Faith cannot exist outside the boundaries of God's will. It is not insisting against God's better judgment but resting in His wisdom. Therefore, faith confessions are not declarations of what we want, but declarations of what God has clearly revealed He wants for us.

EBENEZER

Have you ever longed to be part of something bigger than yourself? In a powerful message, Pastor Marcus reveals how Samuel's raising of the Ebenezer stone mirrors our own journey of acknowledging God's mighty works. Through touching stories of transformation—from Kara finding her spiritual home to young Sadie's bold faith leading to baptism—we see how simple obedience to God's whispers can spark extraordinary impact. Whether you're seeking purpose or yearning to make a difference, this message illuminates how listening with "a predisposition towards action" opens doors to God's mighty works in our lives. Don't miss this inspiring vision for living beyond yourself—watch now to discover how God can use your willingness to transform lives.

| Sermon by Pastor Kim Buckman | In the same way Israel felt God had abandoned them, we may also feel overwhelmed by this thought in our present lives. Instead of allowing the things of our past to consume our thoughts, God has called us to look forward and believe in His promises to us and how we can continue to be shaped through His mercy to us.

O crente e a depressão é o tema tratado com muita clareza e equilíbrio neste Debate 93! Ouça e compartilhe!

On today's episode of the Back Porch, Lisa and Allison share New Year's Eve memories, talk about gratitude, and reflect on the hope that comes from remembering God's faithfulness. They explore the crossing of the Jordan in Joshua and the practice of creating “Ebenezer” stones to mark God's work. Join us on the porch as we look back with gratitude and forward with hope, we're so glad you're here!

Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is more than a holiday classic—it's a mirror. Through the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge, we're reminded that change doesn't require perfection, only honesty, courage, and a willingness to see ourselves clearly. In this episode, I reflect on how Ebenezer's awakening—his reckoning with the past, his awareness of the present, and his responsibility for the future—can be our story as we step into a new year. Growth begins when we stop running from discomfort and start listening to what it's trying to teach us.

What if the reason you're still standing today isn't because you were strong enough—but because thus far, the Lord has helped you? ABOUT THE MESSAGEIn this message, Pastor Sam Muyaka teaches us that Ebenezer means “stone of help,” a declaration that thus far the Lord has helped us. In 1 Samuel 7, Israel repents, turns back to God, and discovers that even after seasons of fear, failure, and distance, God was still fighting for them. This message invites us to pause and remember: we didn't achieve success by accident—God carried us by His grace, stayed faithful even when we were not, and kept His promises when we were unsure. As we mark what God has already done, we also lift our eyes forward, because “thus far” means God isn't finished yet. ABOUT JESUSIf you want to learn more about who Jesus is and what it means to have a relationship with Him, we would love to help you on that journey: https://www.thechurch.fm/jesus For a deeper dive into The Word of God on a daily basis check out our Free Ancient Paths Daily Devotional: https://www.thechurch.fm/ancient-paths WHO WE AREWe believe that the goal of every Christian is To Be Conformed Into the Image of Jesus Christ, and a relationship with Jesus as well as being involved in a healthy church community are both important to achieving that goal.

We know you've let things go. So have we. But when we say it's time to let it all go we really, really mean it this time.On February 20, 2026, humanity as a whole – and each of us individually – will enter a new era, an epic, once-in-a-lifetime rebirth. Slow-moving Saturn and Neptune will meet up at the very first degree of the zodiac (0° Aries) for the first time in over 6,000 years.How do we prepare? By emptying out. Acknowledging, accepting and grieving all that did and did not happen in the past.We're all at a choice point. Keep carrying the chains of Christmas Past like good old Ebenezer or really name and claim and honor – and ugly cry if you need to – over all that never came to pass and never will. It's time for a reverently irreverent yet totally sincere burial ceremony.The only way out is through. Which means being vulnerably real and honest and saying a heartfelt goodbye in order to say a bigger hello to what will and must come. The more you can release now, the more vitality, clarity, purpose and passion you'll be available for on the other side.Join us in sacred sisterhood to put the fun back in funeral as we say goodbye to all the dreams that can never be.We'll gather for:* Deeply resonant and powerful self-reflection to clarify what dreams are really dead (and what dreams may still be resuscitated);* Sacred movement to release any energies that no longer serve while inviting the energy of new life and new dreams;* An herbal ceremony to open the heart and support the grieving process, the dissolving of old energies;* A sacred ceremony to bid farewell to those dreams that will never be realized;* You'll be seen, heard, held and honored in your tender surrender.We'll meet Saturday, January 24, 10am-3pm. All women are welcome, no previous astro-experience is necessary. The group is limited to 12 participants, and early registration pricing ($144) is available through January 14.Get all the details and sign upQuestions? Just hit reply.

In this episode of Shift with CJ, I sit down with Dr. Ebenezer Abel Paul, founder of Verve Wellness Dubai, to break down one of the biggest questions in health and longevity: If our genes are fixed, why are we all so different—and how much control do we really have?We take genetics out of the abstract and bring it down to first principles. Why some people tolerate carbs better. Why others struggle with dairy, stress, or weight. Why environment, culture, and modern city life (especially Dubai) can either switch on disease or unlock performance.Dr. Ebenezer explains genetics in a practical way: Your genotype is your blueprint. It doesn't change. Your phenotype—how those genes express—is shaped by lifestyle, food, sleep, stress, environment, and decisions made daily.We dive into why “it runs in my family” is often a misunderstanding of lifestyle patterns rather than destiny, using examples like type 2 diabetes, lactose intolerance, obesity risk, and stress sensitivity. The episode also explores how modern stress, poor sleep, ultra-processed food, eating out culture, microplastics, EMFs, and vitamin deficiencies silently alter gene expression.We discuss the Well Gene Book as an entry point into personalized medicine—not as a diagnosis tool, but as a lifelong blueprint to make better decisions. Dr. Ebenezer explains why combining genetics with blood work, gut health, proteomics, and lifestyle data creates true precision health—and why random supplements, generic diets, or self-diagnosing with AI can backfire.The future, according to Dr. Ebenezer, is not shortcuts—but data harmonization: genetics + lifestyle + environment + AI-guided decision-making, all personalized to the individual.Key TakeawaysGenetics load the gun, lifestyle pulls the trigger.Most “genetic diseases” are actually lifestyle-driven expressions.Modern city life creates a mismatch between biology and environment.Food intolerances often show up as fatigue, brain fog, skin issues—not just gut symptoms.Personalized health beats generic diets, workouts, and supplements every time.5 Things You Can Start Doing TodayStop copying diets — eat based on how you respond, not influencers.Question symptoms like bloating, fatigue, brain fog—they're signals, not normal.Fix sleep first — poor sleep amplifies stress genes and inflammation.Reduce eating out — unknown oils, reheated food, and plastics matter.Use data wisely — genetics guide decisions, blood work confirms reality.Knowledge doesn't remove responsibility—it gives you control.

God does not withdraw when trouble surrounds us; He draws nearer. When the way ahead is blocked and fear presses in, He becomes our refuge and defender. Stand still, lift your eyes, and trust the God who opens seas and wells right where you are.This devotional was aired on Radio HCI Today via the WeLove Radio App.

Doc and Angus conclude their celebration of the Holiday Season with the Graphic Novel Of The Month selection A Christmas Carol - A Ghost Story!A Christmas Carol - A Ghost Storyhttps://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Carol-Ghost-Story-ebook/dp/B0C1HT5K4BIn 19th century London, on Christmas Eve, the greedy, selfish misanthrope Scrooge encounters the ghost of his dead partner, who warns him that three spirits will visit him to make him change his ways before he is damned forever. Charles Dicken's story is universally known, but in this adaptation by Munuera, Ebenezer becomes Elizabeth, and that simple yet fundamental difference, with all the social baggage it entails, may make her rather more unrepentant than her original model …Leave a message at kirbyskidspodcast@gmail.comJoin the Community Discussions ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mewe.com/join/kirbyskids⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Please join us for our 2025 Graphic Novel Reads⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.kirbyskids.com/2024/11/kirbys-kids-giving-thanks-2025-graphic.html⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Please join us for our 2026 Graphic Novel Reads⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.kirbyskids.com/2025/11/the-kids-talk-2026-kirbys-kids-graphic.html⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For detailed show notes and past episodes please visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.kirbyskids.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Along with Ebenezer, we too can come to know the Spirit of living, loving, and giving by building greater satisfaction and gratitude for the past, holding onto more joy and peace in the present, and trusting with faith and hope for the blessings of the future. 

Tonight we have a Christmas-themed triple feature of public-domain movies as heard from the projection booth: The Star of Bethlehem (1950), Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1948), and Scrooge (1935).We'll also be running trailers from three really bad Christmas movies: Die Hard 2, Santa Conquers the Martians, and Santa Claus (1985). Plus one trailer for a really good Christmas movie, Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas. Rounding things out will be favorite 1980s-ish Christmas commercials and other vintage theater messaging (and a random appliance warehouse ad bc I want it stuck in everyone else's head too).So — The Star of Bethlehem was the only work I was familiar with before beginning this week's episode. It's inclusion is a shout-out to my late father, for his insistence that we make it to the midnight service to hear this story told again and again and again. Miss you, Dad.Religiosity aside, it's an astonishingly beautiful work. I have a computer, and I couldn't dream of producing something this wonderful. If you gave me a time machine to the 1950s, my MacBook, and pitted me against the creative team of Lotte Reiniger and Carl Koch, I would lose every time.Reiniger created articulated paper figures from spare cardboard and other materials, and the team animated them on glass over painted backgrounds. (Preservationists studying her paper figures believe they can tell what she was eating during production, based on what material ended up in the dolls.) One of their rigs also looked like the best bunk bed ever — photo on wiki. Honestly, give me a time machine just so I can hang out with this crew, they seem cool.Rudolph (1948) feels lower-budget by comparison. This is not Rankin/Bass Rudolph, man. It's based on Robert L. May's 1939 story, not the song. And to steal an internet meme: this is Zack Snyder Rudolph. Hard times — you can feel them oozing out of that steely, cold color palette. Which makes sense: World War II had just ended when production began.Going further back in time brings us to our feature film Scrooge (1935). The acting is solid and includes an Ebenezer expert (Seymour Hicks) as the lead. Variety, literally said Hicks could play Ebenezer upside down in its December 11, 1935 issue. And that Hicks played Scrooge for more than a quarter century both onstage and in two films including a silent Scrooge in 1913.As for trailers:Die Hard 2 — which is just Die Hard with the melodrama turned all the way up and relocated to an airport. Also, I'm positive the airplane-eject scene for John McClane was later pilfered by the GoldenEye folks… and it's nowhere near as cool.Santa Conquers the Martians, which I briefly toyed with making the feature; is awful.And Santa Claus (1985)... Last year my family stumbled onto a smart tv Christmas-movie list, and I saw Santa '85 and said, “Hon, I have a movie that will blow your ****** mind. It's like Superman meets Kris Kringle and is still earnest. Everyone is acting out of their brains. It's like Shakespeare. Like if Frank Miller did Shakespeare doing Superman.”And then I hit play like I was firing a heat-seeking photon torpedo at General Chang.Three minutes later, we're watching Santa drown in snow. A few minutes after that: bizarre McDonald's product placement. A scene of people merrily eating Quarter Pounders while, through the window, an unhoused and hungry child stares lustfully at the food consumption. His face framed by the Golden Arches.The movie is bad. But awesome bad. See it for John Lithgow, as an evil toymaker who excels at selling extremely dangerous **** to children. And Dudley Moore is a charming mutinous elf that tries to outdo Santa by creating candy canes that make children float. Definitely see it.And happy holidays, y'all.PS: If you're looking for an uncommon ambience episode with a more modern Scrooge, check out last year's ⁠The Night the Reindeer Died⁠: Christmas Workshop Ambience. "Yule love it."

Ebenezer Samuel, Fitness Director of Men's Health, joins me for a wide-ranging and insightful conversation on the current and future state of fitness media, where people learn about training, and how the landscape has shifted dramatically over the last decade.Ebenezer brings both industry-level perspective and hands-on coaching experience to explore how research, hypertrophy culture, entertainment-driven social media, and evolving technology are shaping what people believe about fitness.We dive into:• Why we can't evaluate training purely through the lens of muscle hypertrophy• Whether “science based lifting” has become overrated• Why the best approach blends research with lived training experience• How people consume fitness media today vs. ten years ago• Whether fitness social media is now dominated by entertainment over education• Whether people are genuinely learning useful skills from social platforms• Why trust and real relationships matter more than ever in a crowded content world• How generational differences are changing how fitness information spreads• The rise of gatekeepers, algorithmic influence, and AI in shaping the conversation• The future of in-person coaching vs. AI coaching systems• And much moreCHAPTERS01:05 The Problem with Hypertrophy Focus03:20 Science-Based Training Critique05:37 The Role of Research in Fitness12:03 Challenges of Social Media Fitness Content20:18 Evolution of Fitness Information Consumption21:51 RP Strength and Personal Training Insights26:48 Balancing Education and Entertainment in Fitness Content28:18 Generational Shifts in Fitness Media Consumption28:56 The Rise of Social Media and Its Impact on Fitness32:13 The Role of Gatekeepers in Fitness Media41:18 The Influence of AI on Fitness Content45:07 The Future of In-Person Training vs. AI50:40 Concluding Thoughts Support The ShowIf this episode helped you, you can help me by:• Subscribing and checking out more episodes• Sharing it on your social media (tag me - I'll respond)• Sending it to a friend who needs thisFollow Andrew CoatesInstagram: @andrewcoatesfitnesshttps://www.andrewcoatesfitness.comPartners and ResourcesRP Strength App (use code COATESRP)https://www.rpstrength.com/coatesJust Bite Me Meals (use code ANDREWCOATESFITNESS for 10% off)https://justbitememeals.com/MacrosFirst - FREE PREMIUM TRIALDownload MacrosFirst and during setup you'll be asked “How did you hear about us?”Type in: ANDREWKNKG Bags (15% off)https://www.knkg.com/Andrew59676Versa Gripps (discount link)https://www.versagripps.com/andrewcoatesTRAINHEROIC - FREE 90-DAY TRIAL (2 steps)Go to https://www.trainheroic.com/liftfreeReply to the email you receive (or email trials@trainheroic.com) and let them know I sent you

He named it Ebenezer, saying, Thus far the LORD has helped us [NIV]

When I was younger, I thought it improper to ask God to help me meet writing deadlines. Other people have greater needs, I told myself. Family problems. Health crises. Job letdowns. Financial needs. I’ve faced all those things, too. But meeting a writing deadline seemed too small to take to God. I changed my view, however, after finding multiple examples in the Bible of God helping people regardless of the challenge they faced. In one story, the Israelites were dismayed because they faced an attack at Mizpah by their enemies, the Philistines. “[The Israelites] said to Samuel, ‘Do not stop crying out to the Lord our God for us, that he may rescue us from the hand of the Philistines’ ” (1 Samuel 7:8). In response, Samuel sacrificed a lamb to God, crying out to Him on Israel’s behalf, “and the Lord answered him” (v. 9). “While Samuel was sacrificing the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to attack Israel. But that day the Lord thundered with loud thunder against the Philistines and threw them into such a panic that they were routed before the Israelites” (v. 10). Later, “Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, ‘Thus far the Lord has helped us’ ” (v. 12). Samuel placed the stone to commemorate God helping His people. Ebenezer means “stone of help.” Asking God for help is always proper. Let’s call out to Him today.

The Good Forest: The Salzburgers, Success, and the Plan for Georgia (U Georgia Press, 2024) explores some of Georgia's earliest settlers, the Salzburgers.  Georgia, the last of Britain's American mainland colonies, began with high aspirations to create a morally sound society based on small family farms with no enslaved workers. But those goals were not realized, and Georgia became a slave plantation society, following the Carolina model. This trajectory of failure is well known. But looking at the Salzburgers, who emigrated from Europe as part of the original plan, provides a very different story.  The Good Forest reveals the experiences of the Salzburger migrants who came to Georgia with the support of British and German philanthropy, where they achieved self-sufficiency in the Ebenezer settlement while following the Trustees' plans. Because their settlement comprised a significant portion of Georgia's early population, their experiences provide a corrective to our understanding of early Georgia and help reveal the possibilities in Atlantic colonization as they built a cohesive community.  The relative success of the Ebenezer settlement, furthermore, challenges the inherent environmental, cultural, and economic determinism that has dominated Georgia history. That well-worn narrative often implies (or even explicitly states) that only a slave-based plantation economy—as implemented after the Trustee era—could succeed. With this history, Auman illuminates the interwoven themes of Atlantic migrations, colonization, charity, and transatlantic religious networks. Guest: Dr. Karen Auman is an assistant professor of history at Brigham Young University and a certified genealogist. She studies Germans during the colonial period in the Atlantic World, religion on the frontiers of America, migrations, and families. Host: Lucy Smith Biemiller is an intended M.A. History student at the University of Georgia. She studies 18th and 19th material culture in the American South primarily as it relates to classical culture. Learn more about your ad choices.

Scriptural References:  Philippians 2:3-11 CJB Mark 10:42-45 NKJV Luke 2:46-52 NIV   Homework:   Is there any role / duty in your life that you feel is beneath you?   How can you bring the mind of Christ (Philippians 2:5-8) to that role or duty?

Love is the defining mark of a disciple—but offense, betrayal, and pride can block the flow of that love through us. In this study, we unpack what it means to love like Jesus, not just with words, but through consistent action, presence, and grace. From agape love to forgiveness, this message challenges us to let love lead, even when it's not easy. Let this word realign your heart and help you walk out love daily. Here's a link to the notes from the study: Study Notes

To follow Jesus is to take on His character—not as a performance, but as a way of life. In Act 1: Follow the Leader, we talk about the kind of discipleship that transforms you from the inside out—where every scene of your life reflects the One you're walking with. This study challenges us to leave behind what's familiar and embrace the role we were born to play. Here's a link to the notes from the study: Study Notes
