Podcasts about faith in christ

Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “First Principle,” and posed the thought-provoking question, “Can you go to church for years and not know Christ?” The President and Chief Executive Officer of Transform Iran, Lana Silk, explained why many Iranians see the current conflict differently from how it’s portrayed in the West and shared how believers continue to bring hope amid uncertainty. The lead pastor of City Church, Dean Inserra, unpacked his book “The Unsaved Christian,” explaining the marks of cultural Christianity and encouraging listeners to examine whether their faith rests in Christ alone rather than heritage, morality, or religious tradition.

As America marks its 250th birthday, Dr. Jim points us back to the timeless truth of Proverbs 14:34: “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” While there is much to thank God for in America's history, the need of the hour is not merely more patriotism or outward morality, but the kind of righteousness God actually blesses. In this episode, Dr. Jim explains the difference between self-dependent righteousness and God-dependent righteousness. Our own righteousness cannot please God, because it comes from the flesh and always falls short. But when believers walk by faith, depending on Christ for cleansing, victory, holiness, and obedience, God produces in them a supernatural righteousness that brings Him glory. Topics Discussed Dr. Jim begins by reflecting on America's 250th birthday and the blessings God has given throughout the nation's history. At the same time, he points honestly to the moral and spiritual decline that has brought reproach upon the country. From Proverbs 14:34, he explains that righteousness exalts a nation, while sin brings reproach to any people. But rather than speaking only about national morality, he turns the focus to the kind of righteousness that God truly blesses. The episode contrasts self-dependent righteousness with the righteousness that comes through faith in Christ. When believers try to live the Christian life in their own strength, they inevitably fall short and resort to hypocrisy. The flesh cannot produce what pleases God. True righteousness begins with faith. We must depend on Christ to understand His Word, pray, witness, live holy lives, receive cleansing, and walk in victory. This kind of righteousness is not human performance, but Christ's life being lived out through dependent obedience. Dr. Jim closes by challenging young people to be part of a righteous minority in their generation. It does not take a majority for God to work. A surrendered minority, walking with God and depending on Christ, can be used by Him to bring blessing and revival. Key Takeaways The righteousness God blesses is not rooted in human effort or self-dependence. Sin brings reproach to any people, including a nation blessed by God in the past. Self-dependent righteousness always falls short and often leads to hypocrisy. Faith is what pleases God, not religious performance done in the flesh. Christ enables believers to live the righteous life they could never produce on their own. God is glorified when His righteousness is seen through our dependent obedience. Revival comes as God's people return to Christ-enabled living. A surrendered minority can still make a spiritual difference in a nation. Young people can be part of the righteousness God uses to bring blessing in their generation.

An in-depth study of 2 Chronicles 23-24.

I Am the Bread of Life What are you feeding your soul with? In Episode 163 of 2 Minute Disciple, we meditate on John 6:35–40, where Jesus makes one of the most profound declarations in all of Scripture: “I am the Bread of Life.” The crowd has been searching for bread, signs, and provision. But Jesus reveals that their deepest need is not something He can give—it is Him. He is the true Bread from Heaven. He is the One who satisfies the hunger beneath every other hunger. Every human heart longs for something more: meaning, belonging, peace, purpose, security, and life that does not run dry. Jesus declares that these deepest longings ultimately find their fulfillment in Him. But this passage offers another remarkable promise. Jesus says: “Whoever comes to Me I will never reject.” Not sometimes. Not conditionally. Not only when we have everything together. Whoever comes. For weary believers, struggling disciples, and those wondering whether they truly belong, these words offer profound comfort. The invitation remains open, and the welcome remains secure. Jesus goes even further. He promises that those who belong to Him will not be lost. The Father's will is that Christ preserve and raise up all who trust in Him. Our hope rests not in the strength of our grip on Jesus, but in the strength of His grip on us. In this episode, you'll discover: • What Jesus means when He calls Himself the Bread of Life • Why our deepest hunger can only be satisfied by Christ • The comfort found in Jesus' promise to never reject those who come to Him • How spiritual security is rooted in God's faithfulness • A practical habit for turning toward Jesus throughout your day Scripture John 6:35–40 (NLT)

In Week 8 of our Welcomed. series, we examine one of the most pivotal moments in the early church as believers wrestle with a foundational question: Is the grace of Jesus truly enough?In Acts 15:1–35, the apostles confront attempts to add requirements to the gospel and affirm the life-changing truth that salvation comes through grace alone. The welcome of Jesus is not earned through religious performance, cultural conformity, or personal achievement—it is received through faith in Christ. Yet the gospel doesn't stop there. The same grace that welcomes us into God's family also transforms the way we live with and love one another.Join us as we discover how the welcome of Jesus calls us to live securely under God's grace and faithfully from God's grace, finding freedom in Christ while learning to love others with humility, sacrifice, and unity.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.orgConnect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!Instagram: @integrity_churchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/liveintegrity/

What is saving faith?

Before visiting a church or following an online pastor, make sure you ask the hard questions about who Jesus is, how salvation works, and whether the church stands on biblical truth or cultural compromise. In this episode, C.L. Whiteside breaks down five red-flag beliefs that should make you run from any church that twists Scripture, promotes deception, or leads people away from the truth that sets them free.

What will Israel do in the face of adversity? God had warned Moses that He would harden Pharaoh's heart, and there would be a confrontation between God and Pharaoh. The clash of rivals plays out in chapter five as Pharaoh shows his unwillingness to surrender his authority to the “God of the Hebrews.” The great question in this chapter is what the people of God will do when facing hardship after initially believing God's promise to deliver them from their burdens. Whom will they serve?

The early Church is united in one heart and mind, reminding us that our faith in Jesus Christ draws us closer to God and one another. (Lectionary #268) April 14, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com

You wouldn't expect a conversation about Robert's Rules of Order to say something meaningful about faith—but this one does. Pastor Nate sits down with Kirby Glad to explore how structure, fairness, and even the way we run meetings can reflect something deeper about life in Christ. It's thoughtful, surprisingly engaging, and grounded in a simple truth: when people come together with different perspectives, what holds it all together isn't perfection—it's grace.What You'll Learn:Why structure can actually create space for belongingHow disagreement can deepen understanding—not divide usWhat “life in Christ” looks like in real communityWhy grace matters more than getting everything rightHow every voice plays a role in the body of ChristChapters: 00:00 Why this conversation matters more than you think 01:00 What a parliamentarian actually does 03:00 The real purpose behind Robert's Rules 07:00 Why structure helps people participate 09:00 Life in Christ and unity in disagreement 12:00 Why no one person has all the answers 16:00 When rules fall short (and grace steps in) 20:00 Faith, imperfection, and real life 31:00 Connecting Robert's Rules to Christian life 34:00 Grace, striving, and what really mattersIf this conversation resonated with you, like, subscribe, and share it with someone who's navigating faith, community, or even just hard conversations.Connect with Bethany:

Our lifestyle can lead others to eternity. Welcome To BARAH MINISTRIES An Online Christian Church Teaching the Word of God RORY CLARK Pastor-Teacher Good Morning! Welcome to Barah Ministries, an online Christian Church teaching the Word of God verse-by-verse to the hearers the Lord... for full notes: http://www.barahministries.com/index.php?proc=lsn&sf=v&tid=1988

It's Thursday, February 26th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Russian-Ukrainian war in its fifth year The war between Russia and Ukraine entered its fifth year this week. International Christian Concern reports religious communities in the Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine continue to face harassment and violence. Protestant churches are especially targeted with intimidation, raids, and closures. The European Evangelical Alliance is calling on Christians to pray for their brothers and sisters caught in the conflict. The organization noted, “Churches continue to serve courageously. Acts of compassion and solidarity are widespread. Stories of protection, provision, and spiritual awakening remind believers that God remains present and active even in the darkest times.” Romans 8:28 reminds us, “We know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” 1.8 million casualties in Russian-Ukrainian war After four years of fighting, Russia and Ukraine have experienced an estimated 1.8 million casualties. That includes people killed, wounded, and missing.  U.S. President Donald Trump continues to broker peace talks between the two countries even as the war drags on.  Ukrainian representatives plan to meet with U.S. envoys in Geneva, Switzerland today. This is ahead of a potential trilateral meeting between the U.S., Russia, and Ukraine next week.  U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently wrote on X, “President Trump wants a solution that ends the bloodshed once and for all.” European Commission fines X $140 million Speaking of X, the company is challenging a $140 million fine imposed by the European Commission.  The commission is using the European Union's Digital Services Act to impose censorship on American tech companies. Jeremy Tedesco with Alliance Defending Freedom stated, “The platforms the Digital Services Act targets … are the modern public square. They are where Americans debate politics, share their faith, and hold the powerful accountable. … The EU Commission is targeting X for a simple reason: X is committed to free speech, and the Commission demands censorship.” El Mencho's Mexican cartel extorted and harassed pastors As The Worldview reported on Tuesday, Mexico's military forces killed the drug cartel leader, Nemesio Cervantes,  known as “El Mencho” on Sunday. He was the most wanted person in Mexico and one of the most wanted people in the United States.  The cartel he led was known for terrorizing not only businesses but also church leaders in Mexico. Pastors faced intimidation, extortion, harassment, and threats at the hands of the cartel.  Trump affirmed “one nation under God” In the United States, President Donald Trump delivered his 2026 State of the Union Address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.  The speech lasted for an hour and 48 minutes, the longest State of the Union Address in modern tracking.  At one point, he asked a question. TRUMP: “One of the great things about the State of the Union is how it gives Americans the chance to see clearly what their representatives really believe. So tonight, I'm inviting every legislator to join with my administration in reaffirming a fundamental principle. “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support. ‘The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.'” (Republicans applauded) Not surprisingly, all the Republicans stood and all the Democrats remained seated, revealing the stark contrast between the two major parties. Throughout his speech, the president mentioned the upcoming 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. He acknowledged the hand of Providence in our country's destiny and celebrated recent renewal in religious interest among young people. Listen. TRUMP: “I'm very proud to say that during my time in office, both the first four years, and in particular this last year, there has been a tremendous renewal in religion, faith, Christianity and belief in God. “This is especially true among young people, and a big part of that had to do with my great friend, Charlie Kirk, a great guy, a great man.” (You can watch the State of the Union here.) Singer Johnny Cash remembered for faith in Christ And finally, today marks the birthday of Johnny Cash. The iconic American singer was born on February 26, 1932.  He rose to fame in the music scene in the 1950s before coming to Christ later in the 1970s. He became known as the “Man in Black” for his all-black stage suits.  After his conversion, Cash would use his music to share the Gospel, often performing at Billy Graham Crusades.  Cash remains one the best-selling music artists of all time. He was inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll, and Gospel Music Halls of Fame.  One of his last recorded songs was called “I Came to Believe.” Listen to the chorus. “I came to believe in a Power much higher than I. I came to believe that I needed help to get by. In childlike faith, I gave in and gave Him a try. And I came to believe in a Power much higher than I.” Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Pick up a copy of Greg Laurie's biography entitled, Johnny Cash: The Redemption of an American Icon.  And watch the Christian movie by the same name.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 26th, in the year of our Lord 2026. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Jesus performs to healing miracles, revealing how faith in the Lord confronts and casts out fear. (Lectionary #324) February 3, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

Protests have been going on for weeks across the nation of Iran. The Islamic government has cut off communication networks and attacked protestors; thousands have been killed. Dr. Mike Ansari, a board member of the World Iranian Christian Alliance and the outgoing CEO of Heart4Iran, joins VOM Radio this week with an update on the current situation in Iran and how persecuted Christians are still demonstrating Christ's light and loving their neighbors even as the entire country is in turmoil. As happened during previous protests in Iran, Christians were among the first to be targeted by authorities. The Revolutionary Guard and Iranian government leaders see followers of Christ—especially those from a Muslim background—as apostate traitors to their nation and the Islamic Revolution. Dr. Ansari says despite being targeted for Christian persecution followers of Jesus are boldly serving and spreading the light of Christ. Some Christians are even risking arrest to bring injured protestors into their own homes to care for them. Learn what life is like for Christians in Iran right now, and how the government is using this organic uprising to target and persecute Christian believers. Dr. Ansari will also introduce listeners to the World Iranian Christian Alliance, and share how this movement is uniting Iranian Christian leaders to increase unity, cooperation and serve as a voice for Iranian Christians.
