Luke 7:36-50 - Speaker: Will Galkin - What is grace? Ephesians 2:8–9 tells us that we are saved by grace through faith. It is the gift of God, not the result of our works. But in Luke 7:36–50, grace is not simply stated. It is illustrated. Jesus encounters a woman known for her sin and a religious man confident in his own standing and tells a story about two debtors who share the same problem. Neither can pay. Through this encounter, we discover that grace is God canceling a debt we could never repay and, in doing so, changing what we love. Forgiveness cannot be earned through religious effort or good works. It is received through faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus forgives sinners who cannot pay, and those who understand how much they have been forgiven respond with a life of love for him.

Deuteronomy 22

- Speaker: Lukus Counterman - This week in our series entitled What Matters to God, we will be looking at the gospel. The gospel is the good news that God loves sinners so much, he sent his Son to die for our sins and rise again to offer life to all who believe. This is a truth of “first importance,” as Paul puts it in (1Cor. 15:3). So, we can be sure that the gospel matters to God. And if it matters to God, it should matter to us.

Welcome to The On Preaching Podcast, the podcast dedicated to helping you preach faithfully, clearly, and better. In this episode, H.B. Charles Jr. busts eleven (11) preaching "myths." The preaching "myths" are as follows: Sermons grow on trees.People won't listen to long sermons. Expository preaching is boring. Historical background determines authorial intent. Planning hinders the Holy Spirit. Informality is more effective. Manuscript preaching is dry. Interesting preaching is shallowCongregational response is sermonic success. Good talkers are good preachers. Preaching has gone out of style.For contact, resources, or information, visit hbcharlesjr.com.

The Value and Power of Expository Preaching with Dr. Danny HydeWhat gives expository preaching its power?It is not the preacher's personality, originality, or exegetical brilliance. According to Dr. Danny Hyde, its power comes from the eternal God, who brings his eternal promise into time through finite human words.In this message from the Expositors Collective gathering in Temecula, California, Danny explains why faithful exposition matters to both the preacher and the congregation. Expository preaching humbles the preacher beneath the authority of Scripture, disciplines him through the whole counsel of God, and frees him from the pressure to produce something novel every Sunday.For the congregation, it builds confidence in Scripture rather than the preacher's personality, teaches people how to read the Bible, and provides the full biblical diet they would not naturally choose for themselves.Drawing especially from Titus 1:1–3, Danny presents preaching as the astonishing connection between eternity past and eternity future. Through the ordinary words of faithful preachers, God calls people to faith, grounds them in truth, forms them in godliness, and leads them into the hope of eternal life.In this episodeWhat expository preaching actually meansExplanation, proclamation, and applicationWhy the biblical text must govern the entire sermonThe difference between preaching and merely teaching or lecturingHow exposition humbles and disciplines the preacherFreedom from the “tyranny of novelty”Why preachers are servants—not pundits, entertainers, or brand managersHow faithful exposition builds confidence in ScriptureTeaching a congregation to read the BibleGiving the church the full counsel of GodWhy preaching connects eternity past with eternity futureHow preaching brings God's purposes to bear on faith, truth, godliness, and hopeWhy theology must become biographyMemorable lines“The text of Scripture isn't a springboard for the preacher to show off his diving skills.”“You are not a pundit. You're not a therapist. You are not a brand manager, and you're not an entertainer.”“Preacher, your job is not to create a message. Your job is to receive a message.”“Preaching is the connection between eternity past and eternity future.”“Theology must become biography.”Key ScriptureTitus 1:1–3Paul describes his ministry as being for the faith of God's elect, their knowledge of the truth that accords with godliness, and their hope of eternal life—promised by God before the ages began and manifested at the proper time through preaching.About Dr. Danny HydeDr. Danny Hyde is a pastor, theologian, author, and experienced expositor committed to the faithful proclamation of God's Word. In this session, he draws from decades of pastoral ministry to encourage preachers to remain humble beneath Scripture, serve their congregations faithfully, and trust God to work through the ordinary means of preaching.Dr. Danny Hyde's Newest BookDanny's newest book, A Christian's Pocket Guide to the Presence of Godhttps://www.christianfocus.com/en-gb/product/9781527114258/a-christians-pocket-guide-to-the-presence-of-god-paperbackThis concise guide traces the theme of God's presence from Eden to the New Creation, showing how the Triune God draws near to his people through creation, covenant, the incarnation of Christ, and the continuing work of the Holy Spirit.About Expositors CollectiveExpositors Collective exists to equip, encourage, and mentor the next generation of Christ-centred preachers.

- Speaker: Lukus Counterman - We live in an age of confusion when it comes to manhood and womanhood. Cultural narratives loudly broadcast ideas that are contrary to scripture. So, believers need to get back to the Word and find help and hope in Jesus.

Rosette Sings, Jesus Will Walk With Me

Preached in Newcastle-under-Lyme, England, UK

Prayer, part 1

Justin, Special Guest Craig, and Cullan talk about why God might have chosen to include this passage in his Bible.

2026-08-09 Jesus, Son of Manby Pastor Chris BergScripture Reference: Mark 9:9-13And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what this rising from the dead might mean. And they asked him, “Why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?”And he said to them, “Elijah does come first to restore all things. And how is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things aand be treated with contempt? But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him.” Notes, outline and a summary from this sermon are made by Pocket AI and found here:This sermon explores the theological significance of the title "Son of Man," centering on Mark 9:9–13. The discussion examines why Jesus favored this specific designation and how it encapsulates his dual nature as both fully human and fully divine.The Context of the TitleFollowing the Transfiguration, Jesus charged Peter, James, and John to remain silent about what they had seen until the "Son of Man" had risen from the dead.Intentionality: Jesus specifically chose this title over the first-person "I" to emphasize a specific prophetic identity.Qualification of Witness: The disciples were not yet qualified to testify about the Transfiguration because they could not comprehend Christ's glory without the context of his resurrection.The Elijah Connection: Jesus clarifies that John the Baptist fulfilled the prophecy of Elijah's return. Just as John suffered and was rejected, the Son of Man was destined for the same path—a reality the disciples were hesitant to accept.The Three Pillars of the "Son of Man"1. A Title of HumanityJesus is the "God-man." While his deity was often questioned during his earthly ministry, modern doubts often lean toward his humanity.Under the Law: To redeem those under the law, Christ had to be born under the law (Galatians 4:4–5). Only a human could serve as a substitute for human sin.The Perfect Sacrifice: Animal sacrifices were temporary provisions. A permanent solution required a sinless human life—a "body prepared" for sacrifice (Hebrews 10:4–7).Sympathetic High Priest: His humanity allows him to sympathize with human weakness, having experienced hunger, exhaustion, and temptation.2. A Title of HumilityThe title reflects Christ's "emptying" of himself (Philippians 2:5–8).Example of Service: He moved from the glories of heaven to the rejection of man.Preparation for the Cross: By using this title, Jesus was mentally preparing the disciples for a suffering Messiah rather than the immediate political conqueror they anticipated.3. A Title of Deity and DominionParadoxically, "Son of Man" is also a claim to divine authority, rooted in the prophecy of Daniel 7:13–14. Mandeville Bible Church   "Where God's Word is Our Foundation"https://www.mandevillebiblechurch.org/Come and see that God's Word is alive and at work right here in Mandeville.. and throughout the world!All are welcome. 217 Carroll Street, Mandeville, LA 70448Church Office: (985) 626-3114Sunday Service: 9:30AMAdult Sunday School: 10:45-11:30AMNursery and Children's church available.

Jesus Is All That I Need, Sung By Rosette Phillips

Preached in Walsall, England, UK

This message is from the Sovereign Outreach 4 Grace / SO4G 2026 Monday Message - Sermon Audio Broadcast Series. This message was delivered by Pastor, Dr. Manfred Langer of the Cyrus Missionary Baptist Church in Kenova, West Virginia. The title of this message was 'The Revelation of Jesus Christ - Part-10' the main text was taken from Revelation 4:1-11, as well as various other Scripture texts. This series is a verse-by-verse exposition through the last book of the Bible.

Eric joins Travis in the studio for a candid conversation at the intersection of church culture, tithing, and money. Eric hosts a podcast focused on mental, physical, and sexual abuse in religious environments, bringing a unique mix of survivor advocacy, theological curiosity, and lived experience inside fundamentalist spaces. His ability to dissect heavy topics with humor, clarity, and compassion makes this episode both challenging and incredibly engaging for anyone who's wrestled with faith, finances, or both. On this episode we talk about: The tension between Travis's “squeaky clean” money brand and Eric's work in the “shady underworld” of abusive religious environments Ministries to the homeless and why teaching homeless people to tithe 10% is F-tier financial advice How some pastors weaponize Old Testament tithing while ignoring other parts of the law The difference between genuine community generosity and multi-level marketing–style church economics Manipulative giving sermons, “windows of heaven,” and why telling single moms not to pay their light bill is predatory Prosperity gospel vs. independent Baptist messaging and how both can end up looking the same in practice Expository vs. topical preaching, cherry-picking verses, and using the Bible like page nine of Google to prove your point Top 3 Takeaways Tithing can be a meaningful personal decision, but when verses are used primarily to benefit the ministry instead of protecting vulnerable people, it's a red flag—especially for those already financially at risk. Many church “blessing” stories are actually examples of human community stepping up, not magical financial reciprocity; confusing the two can justify bad financial decisions and spiritual pressure around money. Any system where paying the pastor comes before paying bills—or where God's “protection” is framed as conditional on your giving—is less about faith and more about control, and that's dangerous for both your wallet and your wellbeing. Notable Quotes “You're telling me that a relational loving God is going to withhold protection from his children if they don't pay him money in order to have that protection?” “It's the church operating as a multi-level marketing company—take money from you, then give you business through their network and call it God's blessing.” “To suggest that the windows of heaven are closed to you because you paid a bill that you were contractually obligated to pay… that blows my mind.” Connect with Travis: Instagram: https://instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Go to Leesa.com for 25% OFF select mattresses (through August 23, 2026) PLUS get an extra $50 off with promo code TMM, exclusive for my listeners  Learn more about your ad choices.

- Speaker: Lukus Counterman - In a world where so many people complain about work, Christians should be different. Work isn't a curse; it's a gift from God designed for human flourishing. It's a reflection of his character and meant to bring him glory. So may the Lord help us understand how much work matters. And may we be transformed into those who steadfast and always abounding in the work of the Lord.

How God's people with problems should go to sleep at night: silently speaking to themselves about God's special care. Be Still and Know and Sleep Soundly.

Testimony of God's Goodness / Fervent Prayer - Brother Stephen Mustard A missionary shares his personal testimony of salvation and five years of service in Africa, detailing the transition from Sierra Leone to Zimbabwe due to health challenges. He emphasizes that while financial support is vital, prayer remains the most critical yet underutilized resource for advancing the gospel. Using the example of Epaphras, he urges believers to become fervent laborers who intercede for missionaries and pastors so they can effectively fulfill their calling. The message highlights that prayer provides essential spiritual foundation and comfort, illustrated by a story of local nurses supporting a grieving mother. Ultimately, the sermon calls the church to recognize prayer as a powerful, accessible way to contribute fruitfully to God's work in the world.

John and I meet for coffee every couple of weeks. We don't really plan it; it just happens. John's in his 80s, retired, and has amazing stories. He also puts up with a lot of my questions (I'm still not sure why). John is one of the kindest men I know. There's something about him that draws people in. While we sit and talk, other patrons and bookstore employees stop by our table to visit with him. He knows them by name, asks about their families, and always has a smile. As I worked on my sermon from Jonah this week, I found myself thinking about John. You see, John is from Nineveh. Well... Nineveh adjacent, anyway. John grew up in Iran. In a world that encourages us to sort people into categories—us and them, friend and enemy, insider and outsider—I've found it increasingly important to sit across the table from people whose stories are different from my own. It's hard to keep thinking of people as "those people" once someone from "those people" becomes your friend. My conversations with John have given me a perspective I never would have gained from reading headlines or scrolling social media. He's reminded me that history, politics, and conflict are real—but so are kindness, hospitality, faith, and friendship. Jonah struggled to see the people of Nineveh the way God saw them. I wonder, who might help us see our own "Ninevites" differently?

Romans 13:1-7 - Speaker: Will Galkin - In our Summer Series called What Matters to God, we've been looking at selected topics and seeing what God thinks. This week, we'll examine why government matters to God. In Romans 13, Paul calls us to submit to governing authorities—not primarily for the government's sake, but because God stands over every human authority. As we study this text, may God help us recognize the importance of government, faithfully live under His sovereign rule, and fix our hope on the day when Christ will reign forever.
