Podcasts about everlasting arms

Send us a textHave you ever needed something steady to hold onto when everything around you was shaking? "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms" might be the quietest anthem of faith ever written—not making a grand entrance, but showing up faithfully when your strength doesn't.Unlike hymns of triumph and majesty, this beloved gospel song speaks to our deepest vulnerabilities. Born from real heartbreak when composer Anthony J. Showalter responded to two former students who had lost their wives, the hymn transforms the promise of Deuteronomy 33:27 into a melody of comfort: "The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms."What makes this hymn extraordinary is how it's transcended its origins to become part of our cultural fabric. From Mahalia Jackson to Alan Jackson, from The Night of the Hunter to True Grit, these simple lyrics about divine support have resonated even in secular spaces. Yet behind its cultural reach lies theological depth wrapped in the simplest language—fellowship that brings joy, a pilgrim journey made sweeter by divine companionship, and freedom from fear not because life is safe, but because God is good and walks with us.Whatever wilderness you're walking through right now, this episode invites you to lean in—to the arms that never weaken, the promises that never fade, and the fellowship that never lets go. Join us as we discover why, generation after generation, believers have found such comfort in these simple words: "safe and secure from all alarms."SHOW NOTES:Leaning on the Everlasting Arms performed by Nathan Drake of Reawaken Hymns from the album Hymns of the Father from The Trinity Project.To purchase the digital album and any or all of the amazing Reawaken Hymns worship resources for Hymns of the Father.Lyric videos, chord charts, sheet music available for "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms” can be found on Reawaken Hymns.Acoustic version of this hymn also available from Reawaken Hymns.Support the show www.thebrightforever.comAll songs used by permission.

Have you ever heard the hymn ‘Leaning on the Everlasting Arms?' The lyrics are full of truth straight from scripture. It speaks to the assurance that we can lean on Christ in all things.

In life, we are constantly searching for direction. We desire guidance, even if we are getting it from the wrong places. As a result of our misguided searches, we are left even further from our hope. The Bible makes it clear for us, that in every circumstance, we can lean on Jesus. What does it mean to lean on Jesus?   We must come to Jesus, fully obey Him, and receive the gift of Christ.

This is a special musical presentation of Leaning on the Everlasting Arms with the Chancel Choir at Faith Lutheran Church in Okemos, Michigan.

God, at times, puts us out on the end of a ledge – and then causes the ledge to evaporate under our feet. As we start to fall, with nothing visible between us and the ground below - at some point in the fall, "The Everlasting Arms" of God show up, and we are rescued. What IS this aspect of God-following?

The story of the black experience in America is not limited to the accounts of oppression during the days of slavery. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we once again spoke to a man whose life has been marked by his passion for civil rights and the desire to see the stories of these resilient people shared and retold as encouragement and motivation to those who see themselves as less than in our society. He shared how their strength and perseverance against seemingly insurmountable odds can be a model for restoration and progress in America today and why radical grace must be an essential element in that transformation. In practical terms how do we speak the often uncomfortable truth of the Gospel those who are actively resistant while still showing genuine love? It is not a simple proposition. But our guest helped clear away the fog with some clear, biblically sound guidelines to help us understand how to speak the truth in love and why humility is an essential element is these conversations. He also prepared us for the inevitable times of rejection we will face and how to handle those with grace. A respected bible teacher and expert on the Holy Land joined us for a timely conversation on the roots of the conflict now consuming the Middle East. He explained God’s covenant with the Jewish people, why this people has faced rejection and discrimination throughout human history and how the events of history are playing a dramatic and direct role in the conflict today. Where do you turn when it seems like everything around you is falling apart and your human resources are just not enough? Our guest shared his own moving story as a teaching tool to help us understand what it looks like practically to find your strength and hope in the faithful promises and character of God. As we close out this week you are invited to join us for another challenging discussion on the headlines of the week and how to understand them through the lens of scripture.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's episode is a continuation of my conversation with John and Anne Downs.  If you missed last week's episode, you'll want to go back and listen to hear John's personal testimony of addiction, which ultimately led to the founding of Lighthouse Prison Ministry, followed by the story of their son, also named John, who went to Heaven six years ago this month.   Today, John and Anne share practical advice for newly-bereaved parents, including how they like to respond to the dreaded “How are you doing” question.  We'll also talk about the before and after of child loss, what they've learned about God's character through their loss, and they'll share about the While We're Waiting support group they host in the Houston area.Click HERE to listen to the first half of my conversation with John and Anne Downs.For more information about the While We're Waiting support group in The Woodlands, please email Anne at cattailzz@yahoo.com.  All views expressed by guests on this podcast are theirs alone, and may not represent the Statement of Faith and Statement of Beliefs of the While We're Waiting ministry.

This week, Ozark original ACMA nominated and rising national bluegrass sensation The Casey Penn Band recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, an interview with Casey Penn. As a bonus, music and commentary from Ozark original prodigies and Mountain View's very own Ozark Strangers. Based in Central Arkansas, Casey Penn is an Arkansas Country Music Award-nominated songwriter and a performing bluegrass and Americana artist. She's represented by Mountain Fever Records, for which she has released three singles and a debut album (One Step Away / February 2023). Her newest single, "We Go Together Like a Guitar and a Fiddle," is available now and is climbing the Bluegrass Unlimited Top 30 charts. Her full album is climbing the Top 15 Album Chart for Bluegrass Unlimited as well. Casey is a former founding member of the Americana duo Lee Street Lyrical. Now dissolved, the band was signed to MFM's Travianna Records and was a repeat ACMA nominee for Acoustic Act of the Year. “I'll Never Be A Mountain Girl,” written by Penn and Irene Kelley, reached #8 on Bluegrass Today's Weekly Grassicana chart. Casey is joined in this performance by: her husband Will Penn on acoustic bass; singer-songwriter Roger King on guitar, dobro, and vocals; Gravel Yard band member Titus Turner on mandolin; and Titus' sister, multi-instrumentalist Tiffany Turner on banjo, guitar, and vocals. Although the Ozark Strangers are young, they're by no means novices. Born out of the Ozark Folk Center State Park's Music Roots program, these young men have built a name for themselves in the local bluegrass scene. Ranging in age from 13 to 19, the Strangers have already been performing professionally for years. Under the tutelage of Music Roots educator and renowned bluegrass producer Crystal McCool, the Ozark Strangers have competed at the Silver Dollar City KSMU Youth in Bluegrass Contest and have released a live album. The band's roster includes: Sugar Foot Gordon Parker on mandolin; Jordan Brannon on guitar; Truett Brannon on fiddle; Zach Ledbetter on acoustic upright bass; and Jake Ledbetter on banjo. In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers a 1981 archival recording of Ozark original bluegrass band Gospel Grass performing the traditional song “Everlasting Arms” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives. In this week's guest host segment, renowned traditional folk musician, writer, and step dancer Aubrey Atwater pays homage to folk icon Jean Ritchie, featuring the song “Sings the Soldier.”
