Podcasts about Exodus

Even colors—scarlet, blue, purple, and gold—can be holy when God says so. In the making of the Tabernacle, every last detail was carefully crafted according to God's instruction. Discover how God used earthly details as visible reminders of Christ's deity, humanity, sacrifice, Kingship, and generosity to His people.

As the days grow shorter and seasons become darker, it can be easy to feel discouraged by the loss of light. But John 8:12 reminds us that Jesus is the light of the world—a light that does not fade, even when our circumstances feel dark. While physical darkness can affect our mood and energy, spiritual darkness can also leave us feeling discouraged, uncertain, or distant from hope. Jesus offers a light that reaches beyond our circumstances and gives us lasting hope and life. Jesus’ declaration that He is the light of the world points to His identity as God and His victory over sin and darkness. Through Christ, we are no longer bound to darkness but are empowered by the Holy Spirit to live as children of light. Even when we walk through difficult seasons, we can trust that darkness will not have the final word. God’s goodness remains constant, His presence does not fade, and His light continues to shine. Rather than simply waiting for a difficult season to pass, we can reflect Christ’s light through our actions, share the hope we have in Him, and encourage others who may be walking through their own season of darkness. Highlights Why shorter days and physical darkness can affect our emotions and sense of motivation What Jesus meant when He declared, “I am the light of the world” How Jesus’ identity connects to God’s declaration of “I AM” in Exodus 3 Why Christ’s light continues to shine even during difficult and dark seasons How Jesus’ work on the cross frees us from the darkness of sin What it means to live as children of light and let our faith shine before others Encouragement to remember that difficult seasons do not last forever and God’s goodness never fades Want more encouragement throughout your week?

Full Transcript Below: When the Days Grow Shorter, but God’s Goodness Does Not By: Laura Bailey Bible Reading: When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12 NIV Every year around this time, my husband goes into a funk. He’s an outdoor guy, and since his job has him chained to a desk for roughly 10 hours a day, he covets the extra sunshine-filled days of summer. As the days grow shorter, he struggles to find joy in the diminishing hours of light. I get where he’s coming from; there are a lot of people who feel that way. I only made it one winter living in Montreal, where the sun didn’t show up till mid-morning and started setting early afternoon. I struggled with the lack of light in my life, so I went to see a counselor who recommended I invest in a light box. If you are not familiar with a light box, it is literally just that— a box with a light in it. For those who suffer from the seasonal blues, scientists have found that a few minutes in a light box can have a major effect on mood. It’s pretty wild to think about how light, or the lack thereof, can affect our moods, mental health, physical drive, and various other factors of motivation. Scripture speaks often of light and darkness. Jesus tells us in John 8:12 that, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” In the book of John, Jesus makes 7 “I am” statements, which refer to the conversation Moses has with God in Exodus: Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?” God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:13-14). God doesn’t need further explanation; He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and end; He has always existed. The same is true for Jesus, since He is part of the Trinity and God in human form; He, too, can say, “I am who I am.” During the time Jesus was teaching, light would have been a precious commodity; you didn’t flip a switch; it took work to keep the light going. So, for the original audience, hearing of a light that never dims or goes out would have been a foreign concept. Yet Jesus tells us that He is a light that never fades and shines into the darkness, and provides life. Jesus Christ’s work on the cross delivers us from the darkness; it releases us from the chains of sin and sets us free. And that’s not all! Those of us in Christ now have the power of the Holy Spirit; the same power that raised Jesus from the grave lives in us (Romans 8:11). So what should we do with this power? We let our light shine before men, so that our good deeds can glorify our Father in Heaven (Matthew 5:16).We boldly share the light in our lives and the eternal hope we have in Jesus Christ (Psalm 27:1).We walk as children of the light, those who are called according to God’s purpose to proclaim His wondrous works (Ephesians 5:8). While we have the light of Christ in our lives, there will be times when we experience seasons that feel very dark. If you are in one of those seasons, let me encourage you, as I do my husband, that it will not last forever. One day, the sun’s presence will linger longer, and one day the light will overtake the darkness. Stay encouraged; the days may grow shorter, but God’s goodness does not. Intersecting Faith &Life:If you struggle with the winter blues, take some time today to make a plan to incorporate both spiritual and physical light into your life.Further Reading: What are all the “I AM” Statements?

In Day 197, the final lesson of Orchot Tzaddikim, The Ways of the Righteous, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe brings the entire journey to its culmination. The author returns to the idea that the human being is an Olam Katan—a miniature world. The wonders of creation, both physical and spiritual, are reflected within the human being, and the soul itself reflects, in an infinitely limited way, attributes that point us toward the Creator. Just as the soul fills the body, sustains it, outlives it, sees without being seen, remains pure, and does not sleep, so Hashem fills, sustains, transcends, sees, and governs His universe.This realization should lead not to pride, but to humility, awe, gratitude, and responsibility. Rabbi Wolbe urges us to contemplate the extraordinary design of the human body—from our eyes and ears to our breath, bones, skin, and countless systems—and ask: Who gave me all of this? The more deeply we appreciate how much Hashem has invested in us, the more we understand that our lives carry purpose and obligation. Yirat Shamayim is not despair or fearfulness; it is the awareness that we have been entrusted with something extraordinarily precious.The entire book ultimately comes down to the words of Kohelet: “Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole of man.” After studying humility, arrogance, love, hatred, mercy, cruelty, happiness, jealousy, worry, repentance, Torah, and countless other middot, the final challenge is internal. It is no longer simply about how we appear to others, but about the private relationship between the individual and Hashem: Do I truly fear God? Is my relationship with Hashem where it should be? Inspiration must become action. Torah must change us.The conclusion takes on additional meaning as Rabbi Wolbe notes that the class coincides with his Hebrew birthday. He offers a heartfelt blessing to the TORCH community for health, happiness, gratitude, spiritual growth, and a genuine relationship with Hashem. He encourages each listener to view every new year of life as another opportunity to recommit to service, growth, and appreciation for the gift of another day.And, fittingly, the journey does not truly end. Rabbi Wolbe immediately opens Shaar HaBitachon, the Gate of Trust in God, from Chovot HaLevavot. The message is clear: when Torah learning concludes, we begin again. Bitachon means learning to release our illusion of control and place our reliance entirely in Hashem—like a child resting securely in the arms of a loving parent. The completion of Orchot Tzaddikim therefore becomes the beginning of the next spiritual journey._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 23, 2026, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on October 2, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Read Revelation 14:1-16:21.The confrontation between God and Pharaoh in Exodus foreshadowed an even greater conflict still to come. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef turns to Revelation 16, where seven bowls of judgment are poured out upon a rebellious world and the kingdom of the Antichrist.These judgments echo the plagues of Egypt on a global scale: painful sores, seas and rivers turned to blood, scorching heat, supernatural darkness, upheaval surrounding the Euphrates, and finally catastrophic destruction as a voice from heaven declares, “It is done!”Dr. Youssef explains that Revelation presents the ultimate collision between God's perfect justice and humanity's persistent rebellion. God has demonstrated extraordinary patience, but Scripture also teaches that judgment will not be postponed forever.Yet for believers, the message of Revelation is not one of fear but of confidence in Christ. At the cross, Jesus declared, “It is finished,” completing the work of redemption. In Revelation, the declaration “It is done” points toward the completion of God's judgment and the final defeat of Satan.No matter how chaotic world events may appear, God's purposes remain sovereign. Christ has paid the price for His people, evil will not prevail, and the victory of the King is certain.Prayer: Jesus, thank You that You have redeemed me and taken on the judgment I deserve. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.“Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed” (Revelation 16:15).Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

Did Daniel actually kill a dragon? And why isn't this story in most modern Bibles?In Episode 54 of the Ancient Roots of Life Podcast, JT and Josh dive into Bel and the Dragon, the fascinating addition to Daniel preserved in the Septuagint tradition. Daniel exposes the priests of Bel, destroys their idol, kills a creature the Babylonians worship as a god, and then finds himself thrown into a lions' den — again.From there, we tackle one of the biggest debates in Christianity: What actually changed under the New Covenant? We examine Jeremiah's prophecy, Acts 15, Paul's writings, the Ten Commandments, Sabbath observance, Torah, and what it means for God's law to be written on the heart.Finally, we finish our journey through the Gospel of Nicodemus / Acts of Pilate, including its extraordinary traditions surrounding Christ, Hades, the resurrection, and Pilate's reported testimony concerning Jesus.This one goes all over the ancient world — Babylon, Daniel, dragons, Torah, the New Covenant, Hades, Pilate and the resurrection.What do you think: Is Bel and the Dragon preserving a genuine ancient tradition about Daniel? And what should we study next?The New Covenant discussion begins from Jeremiah's prophecy that God would establish a covenant “not according to” the covenant made at the Exodus and would put his laws into the people's minds and hearts. ancient-roots-of-life-54 The conversation then moves into Acts 15 and the dispute over whether Gentile believers had to be circumcised and keep the Law of Moses.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/jt-s-mix-tape--6579902/support.Please support our sponsor Modern Roots Life: https://modernrootslife.com/?bg_ref=rVWsBoOfcFPatreon: https://patreon.com/JT_Follows_JC?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkJESUS SAID THERE WOULD BE HATERS: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/mens-shirts/JT's Hats: https://jtfollowsjc.com/product-category/hats/Coaching Program: https://www.echoesoftruthnetwork.com/joinTelegram Group: https://t.me/jtsmixtapeNew Trucker Hat: https://www.shopmmca.com/shop/p/jt-follows-jc-hat

MOVE – Faith Takes Action (4)Sermon Title: Move Forward – Faith Refuses to Go BackWednesday, September 23, 2026God didn't bring you this far to take you backward. When He says “Go forward,” faith refuses to let fear send it back.In this fourth message of the MOVE, Faith Takes Action series, we continue the journey from taking the first step, to staying faithful, to leaving behind what cannot go forward. Now the challenge is clear: MOVE FORWARD.The Israelites stood at the Red Sea with the past behind them and an impossible, looking obstacle in front of them. Fear made them want to return to Egypt, but God had already brought them out, and He was calling them forward.Exodus 14:13–15 reminds us that there is a time to stand firm and trust God, but there is also a time when God says, “GO FORWARD!”FAITH REFUSES TO GO BACKFear can make familiar bondage look safer than unfamiliar freedom. But God doesn't call us to keep returning to what He has already delivered us from.Isaiah 43:18–19 reminds us not to dwell on the former things because God is doing a new thing and making a way where there seems to be no way.This message challenges us to stop romanticizing the past, stop revisiting what God has brought us through, and recognize that what's in front of us is greater than what's behind us.Through the story of the Red Sea and the words of Philippians 3:13–14, we are reminded to:• Forget what lies behind.• Strain forward to what lies ahead.• Press on toward God's calling.You may not be where you want to be yet, but thank God, you're not where you used to be.WHAT DOES FORWARD LOOK LIKE?Moving forward may look different for each of us:• Maintaining a healthy boundary.• Refusing to revisit an offense you've already released.• Continuing the financial discipline you've begun.• Serving even when nobody applauds.• Renewing your mind.• Applying for the opportunity.• Having the conversation.• Forgiving.• Starting again after a setback.• Refusing to mentally return to what God has already brought you through.Your step may feel small, but forward is forward.You don't have to cross the entire wilderness tonight. Just obey God with what's in front of you.Faith Takes Action. Faith Keeps Moving. Faith Leaves It Behind. And Faith Refuses to Go Back.Wherever God is leading you, choose to trust Him, follow Him, and MOVE FORWARD.

Daily Dose of Hope September 30, 2026   Scripture: Genesis 38   Prayer:  Holy God, We come before you this morning in awe of your blessings and love.  Thank you, Lord, for the ways you continue to guide our lives.  Lord, we are desperate to know you better.  In these next few moments of silence, Jesus, please speak to us.  We need to hear your voice...  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the New Hope daily Bible reading plan.  We are doing a deep dive into the book of Genesis, followed by the book of Exodus.  Today's reading is Genesis 38.   The story takes a break from Joseph and turns to Judah, his older brother.  Judah was a businessman of sorts, he leaves his home and family for financial reasons we assume. He moves away from his Hebrew roots to a Canaanite town. Not surprisingly, he ends up marrying a Canaanite woman. Why is this an issue? As we have mentioned before, the Canaanites worshiped other gods.  There was no way this wouldn't seep into the family life of Judah.  The whole chapter sees Judah's moral decline.   Judah arranged for his oldest son, Er, to marry a young woman named Tamar. But Er was a wicked man in the Lord's sight, so the Lord took his life.  Judah told Er's younger brother Onan to marry Tamar.  At the time, they practiced Levirate marriage, which meant if a man died before he produced a male heir, then the next oldest brother would sleep with his sister-in-law to try to produce an heir. The baby would then be considered a child of the dead brother. This may sound weird to us but it was one of several systems that God put in place to ensure that the most vulnerable segments of society would be cared for.    Onan didn't want to have a child who would not be his own heir.  So whenever he had sex with Tamar, he spilled the semen on the ground. This prevented her from having a child who would belong to his brother. And the Lord considered Onan evil for doing this, so he killed him too.   Judah decides he doesn't want to risk his third son with Tamar. If Shelah dies, then Judah will be without heirs, and any inheritance he may gain from Jacob will be lost. So he misleads Tamar into waiting until Shelah is grown up. I'm not sure that we can understand the significance of this. This was a grave sin, denying Tamar the ability to have a husband, a male heir or any kind of meaningful life. He doesn't release her from the marriage -he tells her to go live as a widow which means she could not remarry - but he doesn't offer her the option of his third son. Tamar is in a no win situation here. Doomed to live a life of poverty and/or prostitution.   Tamar has taken matters into her own hands. Judah has basically abandoned her. Years have gone by, Shelah the third son is definitely marrying age and Judah has never sent for Tamar. She knows he isn't planning to, nor is he planning to release her from living as a widow. She knows that her fate isn't good unless she does something drastic. So she takes off her widow's clothing and dresses like a prostitute. She hangs out where her father-in-law will see her and he propositions her. So, this gives us more insight into Judah's character. Maybe he frequented prostitutes, Tamar must have somehow known that he would be willing to solicit her.   And Tamar ends up pregnant.  Judah finds out and he is ready to execute Tamar.  In the end, when Judah finds that he was the guy who got his daughter in law pregnant, he declares her righteous. Even though she was deceptive, she was the one who managed to continue to family line.)  Okay, so this whole scenario seems dysfunctional, right? Evil sons, so evil that God kills them. A conniving father-in-law who doesn't care for the well-being of his daughter in law or his family line. A desperate daughter in law who pretends to be a prostitute so her father-in-law can get her pregnant. It all sounds a bit weird. So, what are we to make of this? Why was this included in God's whole story of redemption?   Here are some thoughts:   o   Judah leaves his family, leaves all Godly influence, and moves to Canaan. The further we move away from Godly community, the further we will move from God. There is a purpose in gathering with other believers, having a community of worship. We are a forgetful people and we need to be reminded who and whose we are. Judah clearly forgot this. o    The culture of the near east during this time period left much to be desired. Women, children, foreigners were highly vulnerable. They had zero social status and could easily be abused and maligned. God put some structures in place to ensure the care of the most vulnerable - Levirate marriage, gleaning; the prophets spoke out about mistreatment of the poor, the Old Testament clearly speaks of taking care of widows and orphans. Jesus walked closely to the poor, the needy, the oppressed, the outcast. Clearly, God cares for those who are needy and vulnerable and the expectation is that we will as well.  o   Finally, this story really demonstrates how God uses broken, messed up people to achieve his purposes. Judah was far from Godly. Tamar, though God called her righteous and she was certainly courageous, she was still a bit deceptive and scrappy. And yet God chose these two people to carry on the line of Jacob. It was the union of these two flawed individuals that produced an heir in the direct line of Jesus. If you look at Matthew 1, Tamar is the first of four women specifically mentioned by name in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. God could have chosen anyone...but he chose them. I love this because it demonstrates how God uses sinful people, flawed people, broken people, people with baggage, people who have failed, people who weren't the best and brightest, imperfect people like you and me, to achieve his purposes. We may not have a great past. We might not even have a super present, but he wants to use us, flaws and all, to expand his Kingdom, to carry out his mission in the world.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki  

Abraham and Sarah arrive in Gerar, and Abraham tells everyone Sarah is his sister. She is, technically: his half-sister. She is also his wife (and one of the 4 most beautiful women ever to live). So when King Abimelech hears there's an unmarried woman in town, he has her brought to his palace. That night G-d appears to Abimelech in a dream with a warning: give her back or you die. By morning the orifices of his entire household are sealed shut, and he summons Abraham with one question, “What did you see, that you did this thing?”Abraham's answer is that there is no fear of G-d in this place. Rabbi Epstein calls it the crux of the whole passage, and he reads it as a direct challenge to a man who thinks of himself as righteous. If you decide for yourself what righteous means, you will never be righteous.Then comes a puzzle. This is the second time Sarah has been taken. Twenty-four years earlier, Pharaoh took her too, and G-d struck his household with a painful skin disease. Abimelech gets something else entirely. Same woman, same offense, different punishment. Why would G-d change it? Rabbi Epstein's answer comes from a teaching in the Talmud, and it changes how you read what happens to Abraham and Sarah next.

Wednesday, 30 September 2026   But all their works they do to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments. Matthew 23:5   “All, also, the ‘deeds, theirs', they do to ‘see', the men. They widen, also, the ‘phylacteries, theirs', and they enlarge the ‘tassels, the cloaks, theirs'.” (CG)   In the previous verse, Jesus noted that the scribes and Pharisees bind heavy burdens on the shoulders of men, but they are unwilling to move them with one of their own fingers. He continues excoriating them, saying, “All, also, the ‘deeds, theirs', they do to ‘see', the men.”   Jesus speaks of this elsewhere, such as people making long, showy prayers for everyone to hear. Some people have attention magnets stuck all over them, begging for everyone around them to see them and notice how interesting and important they are... in their own eyes.   The scribes and Pharisees were a lot like this, wanting everyone to notice them and everything they did. Their deeds were calculated for maximum exposure to the eyes around them. If they brought gifts to the temple, they were the types who would gladly tie bells to them so that with every step they took, the bells would ring and their offering would be seen by everyone – ohhhh, ahhhhh.   You know the types. They fill many churches around the world today. It is a ‘me-centered' religion, even if it supposedly is directed toward the Lord. Jesus continues, saying, “They widen, also, the ‘phylacteries, theirs'.”   A couple of new words are seen. The first is platunó, to widen, make broad, enlarge, etc. It can be used figuratively, as in opening wide one's affections. The next new word is phulaktérion. Vincent's Word Studies describes these –   Phylacteries, called by the Rabbis tephillin, prayer-fillets, were worn on the left arm, toward the heart, and on the forehead. They were capsules containing on parchment these four passages of Scripture: Exodus 13:1-10; Exodus 13:11-16; Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Deuteronomy 11:13-21. That for the head was to consist of a box with four compartments, each containing a slip of parchment inscribed with one of the four passages. Each of these slips was to be tied up with well-washed hair from a calf's tail; lest, if tied with wool or thread, any fungoid growth should ever pollute them. The phylactery of the arm was to contain a single slip, with the same four passages written in four columns of seven lines each. The black leather straps by which they were fastened were wound seven times round the arm and three times round the hand. They were reverenced by the Rabbis as highly as the scriptures, and, like them, might be rescued from the flames on a Sabbath. They profanely imagined that God wore the tephillin.   Jesus next says, “and they enlarge the ‘tassels, the cloaks, theirs'.”   Another new word is seen, megalunó. It signifies to make or declare great. As such, it can signify to exalt or magnify. In this case, the tassels they were commanded to wear on their garments according to the law were made into long, showy tassels. One gets the sense of “Hey, look at how religious I am! I have super long tassels, proving that I am super fulfilling the law mandated by the Lord through Moses.”   One can almost see them hoping for people to come and get their autographs.   Life application: If you have faith in the Lord, and if you are truly in love with Him and what He has done for you, what more do you need in regard to man's approval? The answer should be obvious. You don't need it.   When you have the favor of the King of the universe, there is no need to impress others. Rather, you can spend your time working on a proper relationship with Him. When you fail in one way or another, you are still motivated to work on the relationship through acknowledging your faults and moving on.   If you are living your life in this manner, you will find there is neither the time nor the need to impress others. Be content in your faith, and live your life for the Lord. That is a life well spent.   O God, how wonderful it is to know You and to share in Your goodness. Help us to not seek the world's attention or try to impress others with our faith, except as they want to know why we are filled with joy. In this, may others want to know You personally and intimately. May it be so, to Your glory. Amen.

Greetings and welcome! This is our daily devotional for September 29, 2026. Today, we continue our Exodus series in Chapter 8, where God embarrasses the Egyptian pantheon with the plague of frogs. In doing so, God shows us who He is and that there are none like Him. Thanks for joining us!

David Oliver, a member of the Furman Golf team, talked about the importance of daily dependence on God. Exodus 16

Yesterday we looked at one of the most sobering statements in2 Thessalonians chapter 2. Paul said that people will be deceived because: “theydid not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” Today,verses 11 and 12 tell us what happens when people persistently reject God'struth. Paul writes that because of their rejection: “God will send themstrong delusion, that they should believe the lie.” Those are seriouswords. Atfirst, they may even trouble us. Why would God send a strong delusion? Theanswer is found in the context. These people have already been given the truth.They have rejected it. They have refused to believe it. They have chosenunrighteousness instead. Verse 12 says they: “did not believe the truthbut had pleasure in unrighteousness.” God isn't preventing sincerepeople from believing. These are people who have heard truth and deliberatelychosen the lie. Thereis a biblical principle here that appears throughout Scripture. When peoplecontinually reject God's light, eventually God allows them to experience theconsequences of the darkness they have chosen. Romans chapter 1 describespeople who knew God but refused to glorify Him as God. Three times in thatchapter we find the sobering expression: “God gave them up.” Theychose their way. And eventually God allowed them to have what they had chosen. Wesee something similar with Pharaoh in Exodus. Pharaoh repeatedly hardened hisheart against God. Eventually Scripture tells us that God hardened Pharaoh'sheart. That'swhy we should never treat God's truth casually. Every time God speaks to usthrough His Word, we have a choice. We can say: “Yes, Lord.” Or we canresist Him. And every “yes” makes it easier to say yes again. But everydeliberate “no” can make the next “no” easier too. Hebrews says: “Today,if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.” Notice thatword: Today. Not tomorrow. Not someday. Today. Thereis also an important lesson here for those of us who already know Christ. Welive in a world filled with information. We can turn on television or open ourphones and within seconds hear hundreds of voices telling us what to believe. Buttruth isn't determined by popularity. Truth isn't determined by opinion polls. Truthdoesn't change because culture changes. God's Word is truth. Jesusprayed to His Father in John 17:17: “Sanctify them by Your truth. Yourword is truth.” Sohow do we protect ourselves from deception? Know the Word. Read the Word. Studythe Word. Believe the Word. Obey the Word. The best protection against acounterfeit is becoming thoroughly familiar with the genuine article. Paul'swarning about future deception should cause us to love God's truth even moretoday. And there is one phrase in verse 12 that especially challenges me. They “hadpleasure in unrighteousness.” The problem wasn't simply intellectual. Itwas moral. Sometimes people reject God's truth not because there isn't enoughevidence, but because accepting God's truth would require them to change theway they live. Paulwrote in Romans 1:18-19: “For the wrath of God is revealed from heavenagainst all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth inunrighteousness ..."  Noticethat they suppressed the truth in unrighteousness. This means because of theirunrighteous or immoral and sinful living they refused to listen to the truth ofthe Gospel and Jesus and even attempted to destroy it.  Jesussaid in John 3 that men loved darkness rather than light because their deedswere evil. So today let's ask ourselves: Do I really love the truth? DoI want God to show me where I'm wrong? Am I willing to change when His Wordcorrects me? That's evidence of a heart that loves truth. My friend, truthmatters. And the greatest truth of all is Jesus Christ. Let's love Him. Let'slove His Word. Let's walk in His truth. And let's share that truth with a worlddesperately in need of it.

Message Take Aways:1. The reign of King Manasseh was one of terrible depravity as he seduced the kingdom into acting more abhorrent than even the pagan nations, a tragic departure from Israel's calling—“Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” Exodus 19:5-62. In His mercy, the Lord gave a decree of coming judgment to warn King Manasseh that he might recognize his sin and repent, but he paid no attention—“I will hand them over to trouble, to all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for what he did in Jerusalem.” Jeremiah 15:43. King Amon refused to humble himself before the Lord ushering in another spiritual decline in the kingdom of Judah—“Yes, they made their hearts like flint, refusing to hear the law and the words which the LORD of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. Thus great wrath came from the LORD of hosts.” Zechariah 7:12

There´s a difference between watching what God does and knowing how He walks. Anchored in Psalm 103:7 - He made known His ways to Moses and His acts to the children of Israel - this Gateway Church message calls us past spectator faith into a living pursuit of God´s ways. Through fasting and spiritual discipline, praise as warfare, and a fresh look at Jesus as Wonderful Counselor and Helper, we´re invited to stop living off yesterday´s museum-piece miracles and draw near now. From Exodus´ trembling crowd to Joshua´s reckless climb up the mountain, the invitation is clear: don´t settle for the acts - hunger for His ways, resist pride, and let the Spirit counsel you into freedom.

John DeBevoise, Bill Hull, and Sara Mickelson explored Exodus 20:1-4, 7-9, 12-20, Isaiah 5:1-7, and Matthew 21:33-46 for Sunday, October 4, 2026; Proper 22 (Year A).

This sermon examines Stephen's defense in Acts chapter 7 as a comprehensive recap of Israel's history, tracing the covenant from Abraham through the Exodus and the establishment of the tabernacle. The central argument highlights the consistent pattern of Israel resisting the Holy Spirit and rejecting God's appointed leaders, culminating in the murder of Jesus. The speaker emphasizes the theological significance of God's sovereignty over physical structures, noting that the Almighty cannot be contained by a temple built by human hands. Through this historical lens, the sermon convicts the audience of spiritual obstinacy and hypocrisy, urging believers to recognize the danger of resisting divine guidance. The narrative concludes with the hope found in Stephen's final vision and the ultimate forgiveness extended to those who participated in his martyrdom.

God is goodHallelujah!!!, it is a privilege to serve him and to be called his own. We spoke about the knowledge of who God is and the wisdom of men to apply our knowledge of who GOD IS. Exodus 35 vs 31. What did the Bible say about the lack of knowledge in Hosea 4:6, I pray this day that wisdom is given to all who know and believe in their God, for they shall do exploit ;Daniel11 vs 32.

Remember how terrified Israel was of God when He gave them the Law? It doesn't have to be that way. Exodus 24 teaches us that, although we cannot possibly keep the entire Law, God enables us to draw near to Him through His infinite grace and, ultimately, His Son Jesus.

The parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew 22:1-14 is one of the toughest texts preachers face. Karoline Lewis, Matt Skinner, and Cody Sanders explore it for the 20th Sunday after Pentecost, October 11, 2026. They examine Jesus' anger at religious leaders and the wide-open invitation to both good and bad. They also explain why preachers don't need to tie a parable up neatly. Next, they explore Isaiah 25's feast, the golden calf in Exodus 32, Psalm 23, and Philippians 4.Mentioned in this episode:Preaching on Turtle Island seriesWorking Preacher has just released “Preaching the Bible on Turtle Island,” a series authored by North American indigenous scholars. The series comes just in time for faith communities observing Indigenous Peoples' Day, Native American Heritage Month, and those preaching around Thanksgiving Day.

Send me a Text Message!This prayer is not only a favorite prayer, one of my core prayers, it's prayed by my biblical mentor, Moses. "God I want to be your friend." What would happen, how would your life change, if you prayed that prayer and God answered it? 

In this message, Pastor Corey launches our journey through Exodus by showing that biblical freedom is more than being rescued from something—it is being rescued for Someone. Through the chapters 1 and 2 of Exodus, we discover that God's silence is not His absence and that He remains committed to rescuing His people in His way. Jesus, the greater Moses, invites us to trust Him and follow Him into true freedom.

We don't want our marriages, families, parenting, or homes without God. What good are blessings if His presence isn't with us? In this episode, we look at Exodus 33 and Moses' bold declaration to refuse to move forward without God, challenging us to never settle for anything less than God's abiding presence in our daily lives.

Where have you seen God as healer and restorer? On Sunday, we continued through our sermon series on the Names of God - where Pastor Ron preached a message out of Exodus 15:22-26 on God as Rapha, "the Lord who heals." Be encouraged this week!

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 21:23–32, where the people who had arrived can't give Jesus a straight answer, and a son who said no changes his mind and goes. Saying yes to God comes easily. The harder thing is letting what God is doing in unexpected people come to matter to us, enough that we're willing to be changed by them. For a church tempted to think it's almost there, Jesus' question is still open: What do you think?Scripture references: Exodus 17:1–7; Psalm 78:1–4, 12–16; and Matthew 21:23–32 “REMEMBER ME” -- CCLI Song # 3178072  |  Mark Schultz  |  © 2000 Mark Schultz Music  |  For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Uncle Si earns a new nickname after proving he can still hang with the younger bucks, and an old proverb of Phil's sparks a conversation about ego, failure, and learning to serve instead of seeking the spotlight. A popular end-times interpretation gets put to the test as Jase, Al, and Zach dig into James 5, Matthew 24, and Jesus' warning about the destruction of the temple. The guys examine whether passages often connected to the final tribulation were actually pointing to judgment that would come within that generation, while still affirming Christ's future return.  In this episode: James 1:1; James 2:1; James 3; James 5:1-11; Matthew 23:37; Matthew 24:1-24; Mark 13; Luke 21; Genesis 4; Genesis 18-19; Genesis 21; Exodus 30; John 2; 1 Corinthians 6; Ephesians 2; Revelation 21-22; Ezra 2; Nehemiah Want to watch Unashamed ad-free?

Ready for a crash course in the Law? In Exodus 22, God lays down the laws for society. Discover how many of today's laws for civilization are based on this passage of Scripture. While grace should be the basis of our relationship with God, the practical importance of the Law found in this passage should not be overlooked.

That principle has powerful applications for faith and relationships. In the Christian life, the sequence matters: Grace, Faith, Life. We begin with what God has done for us. His grace produces faith, and genuine faith shapes the way we live. Too often, we start with behavior and work backward. But when we understand the “why,” everything changes. In this episode, we explore how starting with grace can deepen our faith, strengthen our relationships, and produce a life that flows naturally from gratitude, purpose, and love.
