In this episode, we reflect on Ephesians 3:7–9 and the beauty of God's grace—a free and undeserved gift made possible through the complete and sufficient sacrifice of Jesus. Paul points all glory to Christ, the true Grace-Giver, while also remembering how deeply his own life was transformed by grace. His words remind us that none of us can earn God's favor through striving or good works; grace is freely given even to the very least of us and is meant to be received with gratitude. When was the last time you truly marveled at God's grace? This week, may we lay down our striving, rest in the finished work of Jesus, and receive the gift of grace with open hands as we learn to steward it well.  EPISODE LINKSAwake O Sleeper WorkbookAwake O Sleeper Video TeachingEp. 26 | Intro to PaulEp. 27 | Intro to EphesiansWHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

AMDG. Today, Bonnie and Steven are joined by Kolbe teachers Olivia Knuffke and Carl Hasler to discuss music and music theory. They begin with a discussion of the importance of music and its place in a classical education and follow with an account of music from the perspective of Plato. We also discuss the role of the Church in understanding music and the role of music in the life of a Christian.   We discuss how the understanding of music theory helps to open our minds to the beauty that we hear in music, and the classes and resources that Kolbe offers to help students come to this understanding.   Be prepared for a litany of musical puns as you join us in this conversation.  Links mentioned & relevant:  Kolbe Academy course catalog for more information about the Music Theory course   Pope St. John Paul II's Letter to Artists  Related Kolbecast episodes  186 Full Circle of Fifths and 201 The Soundtrack of Life, the first two conversations in this musical series  242 Finish line in Sight with (among others) Ignatius, student co-founder of Kolbe's St. Cecilia music club  263 Exploring God's Cosmos: Astronomy for Everyday People  34 A Beauty-Linked Life with Professor Carol Reynolds  Have questions or suggestions for future episodes or a story of your own experience that you'd like to share?

In this episode, Ephesians 2:14–17 reminds us that Christ is our reconciler. In a time when Jews and Gentiles were deeply divided, Jesus tore down the walls of hostility and brought them together as one. That same truth challenges us today. If we are in Christ, we are called to be defined not by our preferences, backgrounds, or differences, but by God's love. Jesus didn't just preach reconciliation—He embodied it, inviting all into the same grace. So the question becomes: are we still building walls He already tore down? As followers of Christ, we're invited to actively pursue unity, welcoming others in and letting love speak louder than anything that might divide us.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In this episode of Cross Talk, hosts Daniel and Charles explore whether borders are biblical, concluding they are indeed God-ordained. Drawing from Scripture, they highlight examples like the Garden of Eden and God's covenant with Abraham to show that borders have always served to limit, define, and protect. They connect biblical principles to contemporary border debates, cautioning against purely emotional or political arguments. The hosts also reflect on the church's spiritual boundaries and Jesus' acknowledgment of earthly governance. Throughout, they emphasize approaching cultural conversations with humility, biblical wisdom, and a commitment to truth over winning arguments.

Paul highlights the deep cultural divide between Jewish and Gentile believers In Ephesians 2:11-13, yet celebrates how Christ unites all through the gospel of grace. He reminds us who we were before Christ—separated, excluded, strangers to God's promises, and without hope. This reflection isn't meant to shame us, but to magnify God's mercy. When we remember how far we've been brought, His grace becomes even sweeter. Though life in Christ doesn't remove hardship, it replaces hopelessness with nearness to Him. We are no longer far off—we are brought near through Jesus. In light of this incredible grace, how will we respond and live differently?WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In Ephesians 2:4–10, Paul brings us to the centerpiece of the gospel. Just before this passage he described the reality of life apart from Christ—spiritually dead and unable to rescue ourselves. Into that hopeless condition come two of the most beautiful words in Scripture: “But God.” God interjects Himself into the brokenness of our “before Christ” lives. Out of His rich mercy, He does for us what we could never do for ourselves. Paul reminds us that “by grace you have been saved.” This passage invites us to live in the freedom of grace—receiving the salvation we could never earn and stepping into the good plans God has already prepared for our lives. WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we open Ephesians 2:1–3 and sit with words calling us to remember our B.C. days. Paul reminds believers what marked every one of us before Christ: spiritually dead, shaped by the patterns of this world, and unable to rescue ourselves. He writes not to shame them, but to fuel a deeper gratitude for grace. Because there was a real moment in time when everything changed and you received God's gift of salvation. A moment that can only be explained by two powerful words: “But God.” If you have forgotten how far you have come, this passage invites you to remember—and to let gratitude rise again. WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we walk through Ephesians 1:15–23 and a recorded prayer for the believers in Ephesus. Their faith and love deeply encouraged him, and it moved him to pray boldly for them. Instead of praying for surface-level needs, Paul prayed for something deeper: that God would give them a spirit of wisdom and revelation, that the eyes of their hearts would be enlightened, and that they would truly know the hope they have in Christ. This passage reminds us that we are God's inheritance. We are cherished, eagerly awaited, and deeply loved. If you've ever felt stuck in prayer, this Scripture offers a powerful framework for how to pray beyond symptoms and into spiritual depth.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In Ephesians 1:9–14, Paul invites us to anchor our identity in the character and nature of God. These verses reveal the spiritual blessings we already have access to in Christ and remind us that God is sovereign. His will is never thwarted, and His purposes will be accomplished. Even in a fallen world marked by suffering and sin, nothing can take away the hope of glory we carry. As God's will unfolds, it ultimately leads to praise, the only place where praise is rightly due. This passage challenges us to resist letting our circumstances define who God is or who we are, and instead to examine the lies we may believe about God or ourselves—lies that often lead to bondage rather than freedom.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we walk through Ephesians 1:3–8 and reflect on what it truly means to find our identity in Christ. Paul reminds us that every defining mark of who we are flows from Jesus—not from our circumstances, performance, or shame. In Christ, we are chosen, holy and blameless, predestined, adopted, blessed, redeemed, and forgiven. These are not meager portions but lavish gifts poured out by a gracious God. When we remember who we are in Christ, it shapes how we live, freeing us to walk with confidence and clarity instead of allowing shame to dictate our steps.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

Proverbs 31 is often misunderstood. It's either admired from a distance or dismissed as unattainable. In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we reframe this familiar passage, not as a checklist for wives, but as a portrait of a person marked by wisdom. Proverbs 31 reveals the difference between knowledge and wisdom: wisdom is truth lived out in how we speak, serve, and love. This chapter is an invitation to right living, rooted in humility, faithful service, and contentment in God's pleasure. As Proverbs comes to a close, it brings us back to where it all began: the fear of the LORD as the foundation of a wise life.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

This episode explores what I call the miracle before the miracle of Christmas. Before Bethlehem. Before the manger. Before angels filled the sky. God was already at work. In this teaching from Luke chapter 1, we walk through the story of Zacharias and Elizabeth, the priesthood, and the grace of God that moves even when prayers feel unanswered and seasons feel barren. This is a message for anyone who has: - Remained faithful while waiting - Served God without seeing change - Wondered if time has passed them by - Felt marked by past mistakes, family history, or reproach You'll see how God's grace: - Qualifies who we think are disqualified - Answers prayers we've stopped believing for - Removes shame and restores calling - Prepares the way for His promises This message is deeply rooted in Scripture, moving from Exodus to Luke, Galatians, 1 Peter, and Revelation, revealing how God establishes a royal priesthood and remains faithful across generations. Whether you're listening during the Christmas season or any time of year, this teaching is a reminder that God is faithful, even in the waiting.

In this Thanksgiving conversation, The Talk My Credo team discards their entire topic outline to have an in-depth discussion community, faith, & the trending wave of "deconstruction" in responding to a recent online quarrel. Donte discusses the concept of deconstruction in relation to faith and belief systems, emphasizing that many individuals who claim to be deconstructing their beliefs are often not engaging in a genuine exploration of their faith, but rather are motivated by a disdain for God. He contrasts the idea of genuinely understanding one's beliefs with the act of simply tearing down established faith without a constructive purpose.

In this episode, we explore Proverbs 26:1–12 as a cautionary tale that exposes the downward spiral of folly and the danger of letting our values drift from Scripture. Solomon paints a vivid picture of the fool, calling out the ways we applaud folly when our morals become culturally shaped rather than biblically grounded. We talk about the importance of “knowing the soil,” applying wisdom with discernment, and paying attention to the convictions God is pressing on our hearts. With Proverbs' strong language about sin and foolishness, this passage challenges us to stop whitewashing areas of folly and ask honestly: What has God been trying to tell you, and are you willing to listen?WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In Proverbs 21, we're invited to pause and ask, What do you crave? This episode explores how our cravings shape our motives—and ultimately, our lives. The wise show restraint in speech and live with an abundance mindset, giving freely and trusting God. The fool, on the other hand, is consumed by endless craving and a scarcity mindset. Through this lens, we're challenged to examine our own motives: What are we feeding on? Are our desires making us more like Jesus, or pulling us further away?WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

Exploring God's sufficiency.The discussion centered on the importance of hope and discernment in light of false teaching. The message emphasized that God's love and grace are fully sufficient for believers, removing the need to strive for perfection and instead inviting rest in His love. The group reflected on the simplicity and completeness of faith in Christ and how resting in His grace brings peace and assurance.Themes: The sufficiency of God's grace and love Dangers of false teaching and striving for perfection Rest and assurance found in faith alone Reflection Question: How can I rest more deeply in God's grace and share His hope with others around me?

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we unpack Proverbs 18 and the weight of our words. What we say—and when we say it—matters deeply. Our words can build up or tear down, bring life or cause harm. We're also challenged to reflect on our friendships: Who shapes us most, and what kind of friend are we becoming? This conversation invites us to consider both the wisdom of our speech and the influence of our relationships, pointing us back to the source of true wisdom—God Himself.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we dive into Proverbs 17 and the weight of our words. Scripture reminds us that life and death are in the power of the tongue—our words matter, and so does what we listen to. In a culture quick to post, type, and react, God's Word calls us to slow down, be honest, and pursue wisdom. We explore how sin is a choice that carries consequences, but how taming our tongues can bring joy and align us with the fruit of the Spirit. True wisdom is found not in the endless noise of the world, but in the living Word of God.EPISODE LINKSArise AZ Tickets 2026WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

This week in GoGROW, we were reminded that exploring God isn't just a stage we pass through — it's a real spiritual condition. But exploration isn't the finish line. Jesus tells us in John 3:3 that unless we are born again, we cannot see the Kingdom of God.Being in church doesn't mean being in Christ. Serving doesn't equal saving. Emotion isn't transformation. Exploring God isn't the same as knowing Him — it's a call to respond.We learned that not everyone who follows Jesus around is actually a disciple. Our role isn't just to walk with people, but to clearly share the Gospel and lead them to Jesus.2 Corinthians 5:20 reminds us that we are Christ's ambassadors — God is making His appeal through us. That means we must call people to salvation, inviting them into a moment of clarity, repentance, and faith.This week, our challenge is simple: keep reaching, keep planting seeds, and don't miss the opportunity to invite someone into a life-changing relationship with Jesus.Week 3 GoGROW – Key Takeaways1. Exploring God is a Real Spiritual Condition• It's not a placeholder or a casual label.• Jesus said in John 3:3 that we must be born again to see the Kingdom of God — exploration should lead to transformation.2. Proximity ≠ Discipleship• Being in church doesn't mean being in Christ.• Serving doesn't equal saving.• Feeling something emotionally isn't the same as experiencing real transformation.• Exploration must become response — a decision to follow Jesus.3. Walking vs. Leading• Not everyone who follows Jesus around is a disciple.• Our role as believers isn't just to “walk with” those exploring God but to clearly share the Gospel and lead them toward Christ.4. Share the Gospel Clearly• Who Jesus is• Why He died• What He offers• What He requires• We are called to be Christ's ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20), making His appeal to the world.5. Call People to Respond• Acts 3:19 – Repent, turn back, and receive forgiveness so times of refreshing may come.• Romans 10:9 – Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord to be saved.• There must be a clear moment of invitation and response.6. Salvation is a Gift• Ephesians 2:8-9 – Salvation is by grace through faith, not by works — we cannot earn it.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we dive into Proverbs 16:25–30 and explore the profile of the wicked—what they look like, what they do, and how we are called to respond. Proverbs, as ancient poetry, requires us to wrestle with its context before we interpret it. This passage reveals the dangerous progression of pride left unchecked, which leads to the downward spiral of wickedness. We uncover how arrogance, deceit, and quickness toward evil contrast with the slowness and steadiness of wisdom. Ultimately, God's Word offers us a mirror to examine our own hearts, not just a microscope to judge others.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In our spiritual journey, we're reminded that dreams truly do come true when aligned with God's purpose. The message delves into Psalm 37:4-5, emphasizing the importance of delighting ourselves in the Lord to receive the desires of our hearts. This isn't about superficial wants, but deep-seated desires that become fervent prayer requests. As you listen to this message, you will be encouraged to explore your God-given dreams, seeing them as spacious and multifaceted, much like an ornate ballroom. As we commit our ways to the Lord, we're called to enlarge our faith rather than shrink our dreams. As we pursue our dreams, we're reminded to follow the Holy Spirit's guidance, not just our own desires, ensuring we're in step with God's timing and plan.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we explore Proverbs 14:29–35 and the clear contrast between the fruit of wisdom and the fruit of folly. Wisdom produces life, blessing, and the favor of God, while folly produces rotten consequences. We're reminded that wisdom is not a one-time decision but a daily, enduring pursuit. Choosing to walk in wisdom means choosing to walk with God Himself—day after day, step by step.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

In Proverbs 13:21–25, we're reminded that discipline isn't punishment—it's actually good for us. This passage calls us to trust God's timing and character, even when life feels unfair. We see themes of justice, legacy, stewardship, parenting, and satisfaction woven together. Discipline becomes the thread: it's how we train our hearts to wait on God, to crave what is truly good, and to live in step with His ways.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

What Happens When We Die? Find out in our interview with Dr. Jeffrey Long! Dr. Jeffrey Long, renowned radiation oncologist and founder of the Near-Death Experience Research Foundation (NDERF), shares his jaw-dropping insights into the science of NDEs, consciousness, and the afterlife. Drawing from over 5,000 verified near-death experiences, he presents the most compelling scientific and spiritual evidence that your consciousness may exist after life independent of the brain. From documented out of body experiences under anesthesia to cases where blind individuals describe vivid visuals and the deaf report hearing, Dr. Long dismantles mainstream scientific objections with hard data, like low oxygen, seizures, or residual brain activity. He explores the profound themes of life after death, spirituality, and God and reveals how people across cultures describe encounters with heaven, hell, or divine beings through deeply personal spiritual and often Christian lenses. This fascinating interview touches on the philosophical and religious implications of near-death states, including the idea of a pre-birth plan, and life reviews. Plus he explains the lasting aftereffects of NDEs, from extrasensory perception to sudden shifts in religion, values, or purpose. Dr. Long also unpacks how near-death experiences differ from dreams or psychedelic trips, and why they're often described as “more real than life.” Whether you approach this from the lens of Christianity, science, philosophy, or open-minded curiosity, this conversation offers something for skeptics and believers alike. It's a soul-stirring podcast that will transform how you think about life, death, and the possibilities of what comes after.

In this episode of the Neue Thing Podcast, we're diving into Proverbs 13 and unpacking the posture of wisdom—one that listens, learns, and lives it out. From guarding our words to submitting to God's authority, this chapter gives us insight into the heart of the wise. Are we ruled by cravings or shaped by discipline? Do we pray before we speak?

In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ and Dr. Linda Zagzebski discuss her book "Omnisubjectivity: An Essay on God and Subjectivity." Together they explore the concept of divine knowledge and its implications for understanding God. Dr. Zagzebski introduces the idea of omnisubjectivity, which posits that for God to be truly omniscient, He must have a complete grasp of the conscious states of all beings from their first-person perspective. The discussion delves into various models of omnisubjectivity, its relevance across different religions, and addresses moral objections related to God's understanding of human emotions. Make sure to check out Dr. Zagzebski's book: Omnisubjectivity: An Essay on God and Subjectivity

In this episode, we explore what it means to be teachable and how wisdom shapes not only our thoughts and actions, but also the stability of our lives. The righteous seek counsel, pursue justice, and walk in a way that's secure and grounded. We don't get to compartmentalize our lives as followers of Jesus.

In this episode, we dive into Proverbs 11 and explore the powerful theme of our words—how they reflect our hearts and impact our communities. Scripture is clear: God cares deeply about our speech. We look at how wise words build up while careless words tear down, and we examine the call to humility that makes us slow to speak. Through several passages within Proverbs, Psalms, James, 1 Peter, and Titus, we learn that stewarding our words well is part of representing Jesus wherever we go. We also take an honest inventory of our speech: Are we quick to listen? Do our words bless or wound? This conversation is a practical, convicting, and hope-filled look at aligning our mouths with God's heart.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

The Bible contains some challenging passages that seem to suggest God can mislead or send a “lying spirit” — so what's going on?

In this episode, we unpack Proverbs 9 and the powerful imagery of Lady Wisdom and Lady Folly, two voices calling out, each offering a very different path. Lady Wisdom invites us to a life rooted in God's Word, one of intentional obedience and transformation. Her way leads to life. Lady Folly, on the other hand, entices us to stay in our foolishness, a path that ultimately leads to death. Wisdom is not idle or silent. It's calling us to train ourselves in God's truth. And if we find ourselves stuck in folly, we're reminded that change begins with confession, repentance, and a devoted life of prayer and obedience. We don't have what it takes on our own, but in Christ, we have everything we need to walk in wisdom.WHAT IS NEUE THING?Neue Thing is a non-profit ministry, founded by Cherie Wagner, that exists to equip women with the Word of God.

AMDG. In Kolbe's new astronomy program, the sky's the limit of what students can learn. Astronomy teacher Antonia Castro and course developer Vanessa Delgado are here to discuss the third quadrivium subject and Kolbe's updated astronomy program. The duo examine why astronomy is the “mother of the scientific field” and explain their efforts to bring students a foundational experience in applied mathematics and physics, while also sparking wonder at the grandeur of God's creation. “Everything is difficult if you don't know what it is,” Antonio reflects. “But once you start looking into it, step by step, it's easy,” he promises.  From building telescopes to mapping relative distances, this astronomy course has something for the most theoretical mind to the most practical learner.  Links mentioned & relevant:   Exploring the Heavens: Kolbe Academy's High School Astronomy Course with link to free download/preview of text and course materials  Carry On, Mr. Bowditch by Jean Lee Latham  Vatican Observatory podcast  Related Kolbecast episodes:  107 Wander & Wonder and 241 Renew, Resolve, Reengage with Vanessa Delgado  249 Stories Crafted with Care from Kolbe Academy Press  259 Seeing the Story: Classical Reflections on Art  114 Kolbe Academy Past, Present, and Future featuring Kolbe Academy Executive Director Mary Rowles  Have questions or suggestions for future episodes or a story of your own experience that you'd like to share?

In this episode of The Nancy Grandquist Podcast we continue our series, "We Worship One God," with this discussion with Pastor Nathaniel Haney.The conversation delves into the concept of the oneness of God, exploring the identity and image of Jesus Christ both before and after Bethlehem. [27:56] Pastor Haney articulates the idea that God has always had a visible image, which was present even before the creation of the world, and this image is the same as Jesus Christ. He explains how this image was the focal point for communication with God, serving as the visible representation of the invisible God. The discussion covers various biblical passages, including Colossians, Philippians, and John, to support the idea that Jesus is the image of God and the creator of all things. [21:36] Pastor Haney also touches on the theological implications of understanding Jesus as the fullness of God, emphasizing the importance of this revelation for worship and prayer.------------Timestamped Chapters Chapter 1: Introduction and Historical Context  00:13 - 01:43Chapter 2: The Oneness Truth and Vision  01:43 - 02:40Chapter 3: The Identity of Jesus Before and After Bethlehem 02:40 - 06:14Chapter 4: The Magnitude of God and His Spirit 06:14 - 10:33Chapter 5: The Image of God and Its Role 10:33 - 19:03Chapter 6: Biblical References to the Image of God 19:03 - 29:41Chapter 7: The Word Made Flesh 29:41 - 39:47Chapter 8: Personal Experiences and Revelations 39:47 - 48:41Chapter 9: The Role of Angels and Spiritual Battles 48:41 - 50:37 Chapter 10: Conclusion and Call to Action 50:37 - 01:03:32
