Podcasts about Faith in Action

Hey friends, it's Amy! You know I always come in hot with faith—because let's be real, we are nothing without it. In this episode, I'm sharing from my heart about what it really means to live by faith when things don't look like they're changing. When the breakthrough isn't showing up yet. When your emotions are a mess. When logic says, “No way.”I'm talking about anchored faith—the kind that roots you when life shakes you.We dive into what it means to speak faith, think faith, and be faith in action. I share some personal moments when I had to choose faith over fear, even when everything in me wanted to retreat. I promise, if you've been feeling stuck or weary, this one will stir your spirit and help you stand firm.In this episode, I share:Why faith is a decision, not a feelingHow your words are creating your future—so let's align them with HeavenWhat the Bible really means when it says “the just shall live by faith”How to renew your mind daily and kick fear outWhy your breakthrough is often one act of obedience awayIf you're feeling pressed or like you've lost your footing, this is your reminder: You were made for this. Don't quit. Speak faith. Stand in it. And watch God move.You're not alone—and you're not behind. Let's keep walking by faith, not by sight.

Why does God reject some kinds of fasting? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Isaiah 58:1–12 to show that true fasting lifts burdens, breaks yokes, and overflows in mercy.

This week on Just Politics, Rev. Dr. Cassandra Gould—political director at Faith in Action—joins us to talk about her journey from corporate America to the front lines of faith-based justice work. Rooted in her family's legacy of civil rights activism, Gould reflects on how her childhood in Alabama and Missouri shaped her understanding of racial injustice, poverty, and power. She shares how her experience in finance led her to see the devastating impact of deregulation and predatory lending on working-class communities and why she couldn't stay silent. In this conversation, she challenges faith leaders to “come off mute” and speak truth to power, moving beyond charity to working for real structural change. The hosts and Gould talk about grassroots organizing, how policy decisions affect people's daily lives, and what it means to build spiritual practices that sustain long-term activism. The discussion concludes with a call to action for individuals disrupt the silence surrounding social injustices.  LINKS:  https://faithinaction.org/  https://www.networkadvocates.org/#!

Two dedicated young women, both named Julia, share their transformative journeys serving at St. Innocence Orphanage and Casa Cuna San Felipe in Tijuana, Mexico (https://www.projectmexico.org/casa-cuna-infant-orphanage). Working within the Project Mexico organization, they provide loving Orthodox Christian homes to boys ages 5-18 and babies from just days old to age 4 – all coming from situations marked by poverty, family instability, and often severe trauma. • All children come through DEAF (Mexico's equivalent of Child Protective Services) from situations involving poverty, drug issues, violence, or family instability • Orthodox faith infuses daily life with staff wearing crosses and prayer ropes, children kissing icons, and older boys finding purpose serving in the altar • Working with traumatized children requires creative approaches to discipline and understanding their unique backgrounds and triggers • Both Julias discovered their calling to serve in Mexico unexpectedly through short-term mission trips that transformed into long-term commitments • The orphanage's greatest needs include volunteers willing to commit 5-6 months, diapers and baby supplies, and consistent recurring donationsWhat began as one-week volunteer trips for both women evolved into life-altering commitments as they fell in love with the children and mission. Their stories reveal both heartwarming moments – babies enthusiastically kissing icons, older boys finding purpose serving in the altar – and heartbreaking challenges, including caring for medically fragile newborns and helping severely neglected children learn basic communication skills.The orphanage environment offers these vulnerable children something powerful beyond physical care: living examples of faith in action. Staff members, whether American Orthodox volunteers or local Mexican employees, create an atmosphere where spiritual practices are naturally integrated into daily life. Children who arrive with no religious background quickly become curious about baptism, wearing crosses, and other expressions of Orthodox tradition, finding stability in these rituals and relationships.From its humble beginnings in converted horse stables in the 1990s to today's multifaceted mission, Project Mexico demonstrates what's possible when faith motivates service. As the women explain, even small, consistent contributions – monthly diaper donations, regular prayers, or sharing their story – help sustain this vital work year-round, not just during popular summer mission trips.Looking to make a meaningful difference in children's lives? Consider making missions part of your yearly rhythm – whether through volunteering, donating supplies to their Amazon wishlist, or committing to regular financial support. Most importantly, remember these children and caregivers in your prayers, asking Saint Innocent, Saint Philip and Guardian Angels to watch over this sacred work at the borderlands.Please remember to pray for us.

From El Salvador to Everyday Faith – Kelli Ehret on Christian Podcast with Beto & MiliIn a captivating episode of Christian Podcast with Beto & Mili, hosts Beto and Mili welcomed 19-year-old Kelli Ehret, whose mission trip to El Salvador sparked a passion for living faith intentionally. This inspiring conversation, crafted for our www.christianpodcast.com audience, explores how Kelli's journey reshaped her perspective and offers practical wisdom for serving Christ daily.Kelli shared how neighbors introduced her to faith despite her non-churchgoing upbringing, igniting a curiosity about God. Her first mission trip to El Salvador delivered a “culture shock,” revealing the joy of simplicity. “I went to serve them, but they served me,” she reflected, describing how locals' generosity, despite poverty, exposed her discontent with materialism and deepened her commitment to Christ. This fueled her focus on intentional service, like playing with kids at their level.With their warm dynamic, Beto and Mili connected Kelli's story to the challenge of building authentic community in America. Mili's moving account of her friend Cheryl's recovery from a stroke underscored the power of steadfast prayer, contrasting with superficial church “community.” Kelli emphasized that true connection comes from consistent, heartfelt acts like showing kindness without words.In her secular after-school program job, Kelli shares Christ's love through actions, not words, letting the fruits of the Spirit shine. “I don't need to speak about it, but I need to show I'm a believer,” she said, as she teaches kids sports and character, empowering them to grow. Her approach, honed in El Salvador, reflects humble service over a “savior complex.”The episode addressed the discontent felt after missions, with Beto noting how other countries' joy contrasts with America's achievement-driven culture. Kelli's tight-knit church community helped her stay grounded through shared mission experiences. Her excitement for her career and trust in God's provision inspired Beto and Mili to pray for her future.Kelli's words to parents and youth resonate with hope: to parents, she reassured that role models support their kids; to peers, she advised, “Follow your heart, trust in the Lord, and keep pushing through.” This episode calls listeners to carry mission lessons into daily life, serving with love and finding joy in giving.

In Week 2 of Faith in Action, we unpacked James 1:19–27 and confronted a hard truth: it's not what we hear that changes us—it's what we do with what we hear. James challenges us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry, reminding us that real growth begins when we slow our reactions and humble our hearts. We were called to clear out the junk—pride, sin, distractions—so God's Word can take root in our lives. And most importantly, we were reminded that faith isn't proven by words or knowledge, but by obedience. It's time to stop nodding in agreement and start living what we say we believe. God isn't after your knowledge—He's after your obedience.Truth transforms when it's applied.

What does "Joyful Non-Compliance" look like in today's world? In this thought-provoking episode, the hosts explore how faith intersects with politics, justice, and cultural challenges. Diving into Romans 12 and 13, they discuss the biblical posture of joyful, peaceful non-compliance, emphasizing the church's role in society as a force of love, justice, and truth. From the complexities of navigating immigration issues to the tension between idolatry and injustice in government, this conversation unpacks what it means to live out cruciformity—a life shaped by the cross—in a chaotic world. Key insights include the distinction between peacekeeping and peacemaking, the theological implications of governance, and how Christians can embody a faithful, socially engaged presence amidst cultural turmoil. With practical examples and a deep dive into the text, the hosts challenge listeners to embrace a countercultural, Jesus-centered response to injustice and idolatry. Join the discussion and share your thoughts! How can we, as individuals and communities, live out this call to justice and non-compliance with humility and hope?

22.06.2025//Breaking Ground_Joshua 2_Faith in Action//Church Hill//Garrison by Church Hill Anglican

Year C – 2nd Sunday after Pentecost; Lectionary 12 – June 22, 2025 Pastor Megan Floyd Luke 8:26-39 Letter from Birmingham Jail, MLK Jr.   Grace and Peace to you from our Lord, Jesus Christ, who is the source of our liberation. Amen. *** This past Thursday was Juneteenth… it is the day we honor June 19, 1865, when the last remaining people who were enslaved in Texas were liberated by the US Army… three years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued. A few of us came together to honor this day by reading and discussing Martin Luther King, Jr's, Letter from Birmingham Jail, from April 16, 1963. Nearly 100 years after the liberation of those people who were enslaved… we were reminded in that letter… that people of color in this country… were still not free. They… were still bound. And 62 years after this convicting letter… 62 years after MLK wrote of his ‘hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice would soon pass away and the deep fog of misunderstanding would be lifted from our fear-drenched communities…' we sat with the pain of knowing that we are still not free from our sin of holding our fellow siblings captive. We… are still bound. So many people in our country are committed to their idea of what is right and acceptable, that instead of growing in their understanding of the beautiful diversity of God's creation, they have added to the categories of people who are bound by our prejudice… People of color still face discrimination from white people… and this now overwhelmingly includes Native Americans, and our immigrant, refugee, and migrant communities. Additionally, our LGBTQIA+ neighbors face prejudice and discrimination as they have started living more openly as their beautiful, authentic selves… And yet, the Supreme Court just issued a ruling last week to uphold a state law allowing for the ban of medical care for transgender youth… disregarding the mountain of evidence that this care literally saves lives… We are bound by our sin… and we cannot free ourselves. We are bound… but we have before us, our God in the flesh… Jesus… the source of our liberation. Jesus… the one who comes to release our chains… release us from our prisons and enslavement of our own making. Jesus… comes to us… to set us free. If we are willing… if we are willing to be freed. Our gospel text tells a story of a man plagued by demons… so many demons… he is so burdened… so bound by these demons… that he identifies as his demons… When Jesus asks him his name… he replies… Legion… for we are many. This man is literally bound… bound by chains, shackles, and by distance… separated from his society… marginalized… and feared. For Jesus and his disciples, this man is the most unclean of all the unclean… he is a foreigner… a gentile… he is possessed by demons… he is naked and living among the dead… in the tombs. For Jesus and his disciples, this man is not just outside of the realm of what they found acceptable… he was in another world. And yet… Jesus shows up here… because there is no place that is beyond Jesus' reach and authority… but it was here, among these tombs and with this poor man… it was here… that he was needed most. This man was bound… and Jesus frees him. Jesus comes to this man because this man needs Jesus… but in going to him, we see, yet again, that Jesus is always challenging the borders and boundaries around the way we think things should be. Jesus is always challenging us to widen our understanding of God's love for all of God's creation… and when we understand that… we loosen our own bonds and draw closer to Christ. And yet… living in such a tied up way is what we know best… After this man is freed from his demons, he immediately wants to be bound to Jesus… but Jesus is not going to trade one form of bondage for another… no. Jesus tells him… that he is free… and to go and share all that God has done for him. He is free. And his neighbors? …they are still bound by their fear… perhaps even more afraid now that this man whom they thought was bound up and controlled is now free and living among them… as if he belonged. They preferred it when this man who was different… was set apart… so they didn't have to think about him… or care for him… The man is now free… but they are still bound to their sin… and unwilling to be freed. Thinking back to Dr. King's letter from Birmingham Jail… King writes ‘that the greatest stumbling block is not the KKK, but the white moderate… who is more devoted to order than to justice… Who prefers a negative peace, which is the absence of tension, to a positive peace, which is the presence of justice…' The people in the country of the Gerasenes… wanted to chain up the one who was different… they wanted a “negative peace” …they wanted him to not remind them that he existed. They wanted him to remain bound. White people, after the abolition of slavery, wanted people of color to remain oppressed… they wanted both whites and blacks to buy into the false notion of white supremacy… …and many today are still bound to this sinful endeavor. And those who are uncomfortable with the LGBTQIA+ community… really of queerness of any kind… they also want those folks to remain bound, hidden away from view. They certainly want people who are transgender, or trans-queer, to not exist, and they think they can legislate them out of existence. They want a negative peace… an absence of tension… rather than a positive peace… which requires shaking off the shackles of sin and working for justice for those we have oppressed. But Jesus… remember where Jesus went? …he didn't go to the townspeople to try and convince them that this man was their brother, and they should care for him and provide for his needs. No. Jesus went to the man who was bound… because that's where he was needed. And we, who seek Jesus… that's where we need to go, too. We need to go to those who are bound… Jesus is the source of our true liberation from oppressive forces, both known and unknown. And when we seek Jesus… we will find him among those we have pushed away… we will find him among those who are bound. When we seek Jesus… we will find him when we engage in the work of breaking those bonds… the work of seeking justice for those who are oppressed. A genuine relationship with Jesus and a commitment to the way of the gospel can only compel us to engage in the pursuit of social justice. For you cannot love your neighbor… if you insist that they remain bound. If we try… and Lord help us, we try all the time… we find that we are also bound… bound by our sin… bound by our fear of the ‘other.' We are bound… and we cannot free ourselves. But Jesus… Jesus is our liberation… and Jesus has shown us the way to freedom… We cannot become free by seeking liberation for ourselves. We can only become free by seeking liberation for our neighbor. When we engage in the work of seeking justice and life for our neighbor who is bound by oppressive forces… we, too, will become free… Seeking liberation for our neighbor… brings us face to face with Jesus… Seeking liberation for our neighbor… is loving our neighbor… just as Jesus commanded… and engaging in this work… frees us both. Amen.

Our faith is what keeps us close to our Heavenly Father. Faith by itself isn't enough. As Christians, we must put our faith into action. Faith in action is something we are called to do daily. We should not just know about God's word or just hear it, we should be putting into action to show God in us and also to show we are living what we are claiming to have. We should also be sharing the word of God with others. Listen to Ms. G powerful message on faith. You will not be disappointed.

What does it mean to truly live out our faith? In this thoughtprovoking episode of the American Soul Podcast, Jesse Cope challenges us to examine what receives our time, attention, and energy each day.Do we claim God is our priority but fail to make time for prayer and Scripture? Do our spouses know they're valued, or do screens and entertainment push them aside? These piercing questions set the stage for a deeper exploration of faith in action versus empty religious observance.Through Benjamin Franklin's writings, Jesse reveals how this founding father—often mischaracterized as a deist—actually understood the biblical concept that works demonstrate but don't earn salvation. Franklin wrote that true religion isn't about "holiday keeping" or "sermon reading" but manifests in "works of kindness, charity, mercy and public spirit."The episode weaves through powerful historical accounts, including the persecution during the Inquisition and the moving story of James Otis, an early American patriot who suffered greatly for standing for liberty. These narratives illuminate why America's founders were concerned about preventing religious persecution while maintaining the central role of Christian principles in public life.Throughout the conversation, Jesse returns to a central theme: caring for widows, orphans, and the vulnerable isn't optional for believers—it's essential evidence of genuine faith. As he puts it, "If we look at the widow and the orphan and we don't do anything about it, we're not producing any fruit."Whether you're examining your own priorities or seeking to understand the deep connection between faith and America's founding principles, this episode offers both challenge and encouragement. As difficult times approach, Jesse reminds us of John Quincy Adams' wisdom: "Duty is ours, results are God's."Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

In this first part of our two-part conversation, Jamie joins us to talk all things hot chips, childhood memories, and his journey through faith, moving homes, school experiences, and living with ADHD.From the comforting crunch of thick-cut chips to navigating personal identity and late ADHD diagnosis, Jamie opens up with honesty, humour, and depth.

Beloved you MUST Listen To This Faith Challenging Message As The Lord Speaks Through Pastor Natalie Westenskow!   What Kind Of Footprint Are You Making On Your Mountain Of Influence? Let's Find Out as You   Tune in to: "Genuine Faith In Action"

Focus: If a son or daughter of a King needed something, many would jump to action at the chance to help, knowing that they were helping the King's family. How fully do we believe that other people are brothers and sisters of Christ? Matthew 25:31-46

Focus: Faith in action includes using our God-given gifts with confidence and purpose, that is, confidence in God and in His purpose for the gifts He has given us. All Glory to Him! 1 Peter 4:8-11

In Week 1 of our Faith in Action series, we opened the book of James with a bold challenge—to stop running from trials and start growing through them. James doesn't sugarcoat the journey of faith. He calls it a battle—and he makes it clear that trials aren't signs of God's absence but tools for our transformation. We learned that trials are training grounds designed to build endurance, that temptation isn't the same as sin—we have a choice in how we respond—and that God's goodness doesn't shift when life gets hard. This message pushes us to quit escaping and start enduring, knowing that God is doing His deepest work when the pressure is on. Recovery isn't about ease—it's about faith forged in the fire.Faith isn't built in the easy—it's forged in the fire.Trials don't mean God is absent. They mean He's working.

Pastor Mike will be speaking on Faith In Action (Fathers Day). He will be reading out of Hebrews 11:23-29. And every story is not a David and Goliath. And sometimes you're at the point of a sword, and sometimes you're at the point of loss, and sometimes you're in the midst of suffering and persecution. […] The post Faith In Action (Fathers Day) first appeared on Hope Worth Having.

Fatherhood isn't just about providing—it's about planting seeds of faith that will grow for a lifetime. God designed fathers to play a vital role in passing on their love for Him to their children, not just in big, formal moments, but in the simple, everyday conversations of life. When a dad loves God and loves others, his kids see faith in action—and that example can shape their hearts for generations to come.

Haters are real—but so is our call to rise above. Jesus didn't say match energy, He said love your enemies and pray for them. Hard? Yes. But that's kingdom living. Let's show the world what faith in action looks like. #RespondingToHaters #LoveLikeJesus #CITAMChurchOnline #ChurchEverydayGet in touch with us:http://www.citam.org/churchonline@citam.org(+254) 784 277 277(+254) 728 221 221

This past weekend, we reflected on a powerful truth: we can't just talk the talk—we're called to walk the walk, just like Jesus did.In Week 2 of our HOW TO series, Ang Bryant reminded us from James 2 that faith in action matters. Jesus didn't show favoritism and we're called to follow His example—loving others without partiality and backing up our words with obedience.We also celebrated Father's Day and were challenged to reflect the kind of love that goes beyond words, showing up with intentionality and compassion.Missed the message?

#biblestudy #podcast #healing #jesuschrist #jesuschristourlord #matthew9 Today, we are discussing what it means to put faith into action. What kind of faith did the woman who touched Jesus' garment possess that led to her healing? Should we focus on the actions we must take to be healed by Jesus, or is it more about believing in Him as He claims to be and trusting in His purposes beyond ourselves?

Chris Yong begins our new series looking at Judges with a call to realign our worship and remember God's faithfulness. Step out in faith like Othniel—flawed but Spirit-empowered - and bring overflowing blessings to all those we encounter.

What do your actions say about your faith? Jesse Cope delivers a powerful message on aligning our daily choices with our professed beliefs, warning that "you can say all the nice sounding words that you want, but if your actions don't back those words up, it's worse than meaningless." This challenging perspective asks listeners to examine what they're truly prioritizing each day.Drawing from the Book of Jude, Jesse explores how misusing God's grace as an excuse to continue in sin represents a dangerous spiritual trap. The epistle's warnings about those who "turn the grace of our God into licentiousness" resonate powerfully in today's culture where professed faith often contradicts actual behavior. Through careful examination of scripture, Jesse reminds us that our choices create ripple effects that impact not just ourselves but everyone around us.The podcast takes a fascinating historical journey through Harvard University's founding principles from 1642, revealing how dramatically American education has shifted from its Christian foundations. These principles explicitly stated that "the main end of [a student's] life and studies is to know God and Jesus Christ" – a stark contrast to today's secular academic environment.Perhaps most moving is Jesse's recounting of Medal of Honor recipients from D-Day, highlighting extraordinary courage that raises uncomfortable questions about our own willingness to sacrifice for righteous causes. The episode concludes with FDR's powerful D-Day prayer, demonstrating how American leaders once openly acknowledged the nation's dependence on divine guidance.Are you making time for God daily? Are your actions aligned with your professed beliefs? Join Jesse in examining what truly matters in life and how we can better honor God through consistent faith in action rather than empty words.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

What does it mean to have a public witness to Jesus Christ? Daniel Hill brings clarity to this question by drawing on the lives of three key abolitionists—David Ruggles, Maria W. Stewart, and William Still—figures often recognized more for their political or philosophical contributions than their spiritual convictions. Hill shows how their Christian faith shaped their public engagement, offering the church a compelling model for faithful presence today.Youtube - https://youtu.be/GlVXYQnv02cAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple -  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Bearing Witness, What the Church Can Learn from Early Abolitionists - Daniel Lee HillIf you are interested in learning more about my two video-accompanied courses, Contender: Going Deeper in the Book of Jude andHeaven and Other Destinations: A Biblical Journey Beyond this World , visit courses.andymilleriii.comAnd don't forget about my most recent book, Contender, which is available on Amazon! Five Steps to Deeper Teaching and Preaching - Recently, I updated this PDF document and added a 45-minute teaching video with slides, explaining this tool.

Open Forum: Pastor Amos introduced a new Faith in Action discipleship group starting in June and meeting on Mondays from 7:30–9 PM EST. He also announced a focus on building joyful marriages on Sundays, following his previous teachings on divorce and remarriage. The group engaged in a heartfelt discussion about navigating friendships affected by differing beliefs, especially concerning same-sex unions. Jovanna and Doyin shared personal experiences of strained relationships, while Pastor Amos encouraged maintaining biblical convictions without legitimizing sin, yet keeping the door open for reconciliation. The conversation shifted to social media, where Doyin and Tyesha raised concerns about the imbalance in addressing women's versus men's accountability. Pastor Amos explained his intentional strategy of alternating focus and how social media algorithms often favor controversial topics involving women. Transparency before marriage was emphasized, with Pastor Amos urging individuals to disclose their full past early in dating to prevent future marital issues. The emotional impact of past relationships on men was discussed, highlighting the need for open communication. The group also explored healing generational patterns, prayer and intimacy in dating, and the theology of marriage as a covenant. LaToya shared reflections on marriage rooted in biblical love and sacrifice.   Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com
