Hey Guys! After a little break last week, I'm back with the team for a conversation about building endurance in the Christian faith through daily obedience, patience, and spiritual growth.Sanctification is a process, and so is building endurance. Using a lesson I learned from “ego lifting” in Pilates, we talk about why God may be more interested in our faithful reps than the amount of weight we're trying to carry. So many of us want the big moment, the visible calling, or the impressive testimony, but God often develops our character through the quiet monents each day.We talk about walking in step with the Holy Spirit without trying to rush ahead, remaining faithful when our growth feels invisible, and trusting that God is establishing roots beneath the surface.Through the lives of Abraham, Moses, and David, we're reminded that their public moments of faith were preceded by years of private preparation and obedience.If you're a new believer, discouraged by your pace, comparing your calling to someone else's, or wondering whether you're truly growing, I pray this episode encourages you. Baby steps are still steps. You don't have to reach the finish line first; you just have to keep going, looking to Jesus as the founder and perfecter of your faith.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
What does it look like to follow Jesus in the everyday tension of motherhood, marriage, leadership, and personal healing? In episode four of our Summer Recap Series, Shelley Giglio is joined by author, Bible teacher, and podcaster Jackie Hill Perry for a raw and wisdom filled conversation about humility, trust, and the hidden work of sanctification. Jackie shares candidly about parenting four children while staying rooted in her calling, building a marriage grounded in friendship with her husband Preston, and learning to trust God in places of deep personal hurt and uncertainty. Together, they unpack what it means to live as disciples who choose obedience over ego, faith over fear, and gratitude over envy. This episode will encourage you to see God differently in your suffering, to embrace the narrow road of discipleship, and to trust that He is faithful in every step of your story.

Today we are reviving our series where we take your tough questions. We are starting with Israel and all the questions surrounding the modern Jewish people. Welcome to the 167!
In this message, Samuel Goulet teaches on the spiritual reality that everyone lives under a “yoke”—a guiding force that shapes our pace, direction, and responses—and invites listeners to recognize whether they are being driven by fear, striving, shame, legalism, anger, or the freedom of Jesus. He contrasts the crushing yokes of the world with Christ's easy and light yoke, emphasizing that true freedom comes through surrender, the work of the Holy Spirit, and learning to walk in step with Jesus. This episode encourages believers to cry out to God, receive His forgiveness, reject old patterns of bondage, and live from the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, and freedom.
In Part 2 of this series, Samuel Goulet continues the conversation on yokes by exploring how chains, cycles, and unhealthy patterns are broken through full surrender to Jesus. He teaches that the fruit of our lives reveals what we are submitted to, challenging listeners to move beyond surface-level faith and pursue true heart transformation through obedience, prayer, and fasting. With practical insight into how habits are formed and renewed, Samuel encourages believers to exchange control for trust, cry out to God for breakthrough, and allow Him to reshape their minds, families, and daily lives.
How do we navigate the "mixed bag" of prophecy today? In this message from the Is This Thing On? series, Pastor Travis Aicklen addresses one of the most misunderstood and sometimes misused gifts of the Spirit: prophecy. Travis candidly acknowledges the awkwardness and skepticism many feel toward the prophetic, often born from seeing the gift abused or used to manipulate others. However, he challenges us not to let past negative experiences or "fuzzy details" cause us to reject a genuine and powerful gift from God. By comparing two biblical examples of prophecy, Travis provides a framework for understanding how God speaks, how to test what we hear, and how to embrace the prophetic to build up the church.Key Points & Scripture ReferencesThe Reality of the "Mixed Bag": The church in Corinth was a messy place, and their use of spiritual gifts reflected that. Prophecy, like any gift given to flawed humans, can be misunderstood or misapplied. Just because a gift is sometimes abused doesn't mean it isn't real or valuable. We are called to "earnestly desire spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy" (1 Corinthians 14:1).Two Kinds of Prophets: Travis contrasts the prophet Agabus, who accurately foretold a famine and Paul's future imprisonment, with false prophets who use their "gift" for personal gain or manipulation. Agabus demonstrates that true prophecy is a humble, specific revelation from God, meant to prepare and strengthen the church.The Components of Prophecy: A prophetic word consists of three parts: Revelation (what God shows you), Interpretation (what you think it means), and Application (what you should do about it). The revelation is from God, but the interpretation and application are human processes, which is why prophecy must always be tested against Scripture and the wisdom of the community.The Purpose is Edification: According to 1 Corinthians 14:3, the primary purpose of prophecy is not to tell the future or reveal secrets, but to bring "upbuilding and encouragement and consolation" to the church. The one who prophesies "builds up the church". If a "word from God" tears down or manipulates, it is not true prophecy.Embracing the Mystery: We don't have to understand everything about the prophetic to participate in it. Travis encourages us to be open to how God might speak through dreams, pictures, or "props" (like Agabus taking Paul's belt), and to humbly share those impressions with one another.Call to ActionHave you completely closed yourself off to the idea that God might speak to you, or through you, to encourage someone else? This week, ask God to give you an "Agabus moment"—a specific, encouraging word for a friend, a coworker, or a family member. It doesn't have to be dramatic; it could be as simple as, "I feel like God wants you to know..." As we step out in faith, even with "fuzzy details," God can use our tentative words to build up His church. Let's not let the misuse of a gift prevent us from experiencing its true power.Join us Sundays at 8:30am or 10:30am. Find out more at RadiantVisalia.com.

It’s easy to let past hurt write the script for how close we will get to God and to others.

Hey guys! We're back this week with a fresh episode and Toni Collier is back on In Totality to share about season 2 of her Docuseries, Unshakeable Moxie!If you haven't seen season 1, it's a great time to catch up and tune into the series, co-hosted by Moriah Smallbobe, where these two women share the beauty of other women's stories around the world, and how true hope is not just believing things will get better, but placing our hope fully in Jesus.You guys know whenever Toni is here we have a great time with great laughs. In this episode, we talk about holding on to joy in the middle of grief, what it looks like to keep showing up when life feels heavy, and how God comforts us through our suffering and never asks us to carry it alone. Toni shares what this season has taught her about hope, endurance, healing, and trusting God when the outcome is still unclear.I pray this episode reminds you that you do not have to be perfect to be faithful.

Are you telling the story of what God has done in your life? In this installment of the Is This Thing On? series, guest speaker David Jansson tackles "The Power of Testimony." We often shy away from sharing our stories because they don't seem "dramatic" enough—maybe we didn't have a radical conversion from a life of extreme sin. But David reminds us that the power of a testimony lies not in its drama, but in its truth. Your story, no matter how "ordinary" it may seem, is living proof of God's grace and an essential tool for building up the church.Key Points & Scripture ReferencesThe Command to Tell: Throughout Scripture, from the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 6) to the New (1 John 1), God's people are commanded to tell the stories of His faithfulness. A testimony is simply declaring what we have seen and heard God do.Doctrine and Story Must Align: We need both the map (theology/doctrine) and the stories (testimony). Theology provides the structure, but personal stories provide the lived reality of God's character. They validate and reinforce each other.The Danger of the "Social Imaginary": We live in a culture that tells us a different story—one where God is irrelevant and human reason is supreme. If we aren't actively telling the true story of God's work, the world's false narratives will quickly fill the void.Your Story Matters: You don't need a dramatic "before and after" to have a testimony. If God has given you peace, answered a prayer, or guided you through a difficult season, that is a testimony. Don't withhold your story; it's a vital part of God's work in the world.Overcoming the Hindrances: Pride and fear often keep us silent. We might fear rejection or simply think our story isn't "good enough." David challenges us to cultivate humility, recognize that we are all completely dependent on God's grace, and boldly share our experiences.Call to ActionThis week, intentionally reflect on your own story. What is one specific way God has been faithful to you? It might be a recent answered prayer or a lesson learned years ago. Once you have it, share it. Tell your spouse, your children, or a friend. Don't let your testimony remain unspoken; use your words to build faith and declare God's goodness to those around you.Join us Sundays at 8:30am or 10:30am. Find out more at RadiantVisalia.com.

Are your words rushing ahead of your wisdom? In week two of our Is This Thing On? series, Pastor Danny Cantelmi tackles the critical counterpart to the power of speaking blessing: the discipline of how we listen. Drawing on the ancient wisdom of James, Danny challenges our fast-paced, quick-to-respond culture by examining what it truly means to be "quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger." This message is a vital gut-check for our relationships, marriages, and daily interactions, revealing how uncontrolled words and the subtle poison of pride can undermine the very lives we're trying to build.Key Points & Scripture ReferencesThe Weight of Our Words: Building on last week's message, we have the immense responsibility and invitation to participate in God's harvest by using our words to bless and build up others. Our words are not passive; they have exponential, active power.The Discipline of Listening: James 1:19-20 urges believers to be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger. True listening is an active, engaged posture—not a passive waiting for your turn to talk or a defensive stance.Pride vs. Humility: Being quick to listen cultivates humility, which invites God's grace into our lives (James 4:6). Conversely, pride—whether in the form of arrogance ("I'm better than you") or isolation ("I don't need you")—is the enemy of authentic listening and relationship.The Danger of the Quick Reply: In a world of instant communication, our uncontrolled speech often leads to uncontrolled anger. A failure to listen deeply can result in misrepresentation, hurt feelings, and relational breakdown (Proverbs 13:10, 17:27).The Ultimate Listener: Jesus modeled perfect humility by submitting to the Father, even to the point of death on a cross (Philippians 2:6-13). When we struggle with pride or uncontrolled speech, we look to Christ, who empowers us to walk in humility and grace.Call to ActionHow are you doing with the "quick to listen" command? This week, take a moment to ask a trusted friend or spouse for an honest assessment of your listening skills. Practice the discipline of slowing down your responses, avoiding defensive "quick replies," and intentionally validating the feelings of those around you. If you realize your words have caused damage, don't wait—take the humble step of apologizing and seeking reconciliation today.Join us Sundays at 8:30am or 10:30am.

Service and Sacrifice with Bishop Kevin Foreman | The Devil Doc Talk Show | Faith, Leadership & Spiritual Entrepreneurship
About 2 years ago I debated an LDS abuse activist named Justin Riggs of LDSAbuse.info. I am resharing the debate because I still see the same old tropes becoming popular online and they just don't hold up under scrutiny. In fact the truth is the opposite of the claims.

Raised: When Jesus Calls the Dead to Life – John 11:27–57 In Episode 141 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane explore one of the most powerful miracles in all of Scripture—the raising of Lazarus in John 11:27–57. As grief, doubt, hope, and faith collide, Jesus declares Himself to be “the resurrection and the life” before calling Lazarus from the tomb. Together, they unpack what this miracle reveals about the heart of God, the power of belief, and how Jesus often works in ways that stretch our faith beyond what we can see. This chapter is not only about a man being raised from the dead—it's about a Savior who brings life into every place that feels hopeless, buried, or beyond redemption. If you've ever wondered whether God can still move in what feels impossible, this conversation is a reminder that Jesus specializes in resurrection. What area of my life feels beyond hope—and am I willing to believe that Jesus still brings dead things back to life?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Is your life operating from a place of blessing, or are you constantly striving to earn it?In the kickoff message of our new summer series, Is This Thing On?, Travis Aicklen dives deep into the profound, exponential power of our words. Far from just a polite cliché or a quick response to a sneeze, a true biblical blessing is the projection of good into the life of another person. By examining the roots of the word—from the Old Testament Barak to the New Testament Eulogia—this sermon challenges us to break free from insecurity, comparison, and the "blessing deficit" that plagues so many families. Discover how to speak life, direct your future, and operate from the secure identity of being fully loved and blessed by God.Key Points & Scripture ReferencesWork From Blessing, Not For It: Before humanity ever accomplished a single task, God created and blessed them. Just like Jesus at his baptism, we are designed to work from a place of blessing and affirmation, rather than striving to earn it. (Genesis 1:27-29)The Danger of the Deficit: The story of Jacob highlights the brokenness and deception that occur when we live with an orphan spirit, desperately trying to scheme our way into receiving a blessing. (Genesis 27)Blessings Must Be Spoken Out Loud: A blessing isn't truly a blessing until it leaves your lips. We must actively and verbally "eulogize" (speak well of) the people in our lives to empower them. (Luke 24, Proverbs 31)Words Direct Our Future: Just like the rudder of a ship, the words we speak—whether blessings or curses—set the trajectory for our lives and the lives of those around us. (James 3)Our Spiritual Inheritance: Through Christ, we have been redeemed from the curse and have already been given every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. We are blessed to be a blessing. (Ephesians 1, Galatians 3)Call to ActionTake a close inventory of your words this week. Are you withholding encouragement from your spouse, children, friends, or coworkers? Don't let your loved ones live with a blessing deficit. Step into your God-given authority, speak life over your family, and intentionally direct the course of their future with your words. If you are struggling with insecurity or an unhealed "orphan spirit," bring it to God and allow your church family to speak truth and blessing over you today.Join us Sundays at 8:30am or 10:30am.

The Delay, The Death, and The Resurrection Life - John 11:1-26 In Episode 141 - When Jesus hears that His close friend Lazarus is sick, He doesn't rush to his side—He waits. In this episode, we unpack the tension of John 11:1-26. Why does God sometimes seem slow to answer our pain? We'll look at the heartbreak of Mary and Martha, the raw humanity of Jesus, and the staggering moment He redefines reality by declaring, "I am the resurrection and the life." If you're sitting in a season of waiting or wondering if God has forgotten you, this episode is a powerful reminder that His delays are never denials. Where in your life right now does it feel like Jesus is arriving 'too late'—and how does knowing He delayed on purpose with Lazarus change how you view that waiting room? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In Totality Podcast is back this week with a powerful conversation with Laurie Krieg on sexuality, surrender, marriage, parenting, and the love of God.As parents, many of us feel anxious or unprepared when it comes to conversations around sexuality, puberty, pornography, identity, and culture. Laurie gives such practical wisdom on how to talk to our children with truth, grace, clarity, and love without panic or shame.Laurie shares her testimony of wrestling with same-sex attraction, sexual brokenness, shame, and the deeper longings beneath desire: the need to be seen, known, chosen, and loved. Together, we talk about how those longings are ultimately met in Jesus, and how God's love does not just expose what is broken, but empowers us to surrender, heal, and walk in freedom.This episode is for anyone who has struggled with shame, anyone who wants to better love people without compromising truth, and any parent, mentor, aunt, uncle, youth leader, or discipler aiming to guide the next generation with a gospel-centered view of sexuality.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Have you ever felt exhausted from constantly thinking about how you're doing, how you're perceived, what you're accomplishing, or whether you're enough? If we're honest, most of us live there more often than we'd like to admit. This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I sat down with author Morgan Krueger to talk about her new book, Made to Magnify: Choosing to Live for Jesus When Everything Tells You to Live for Yourself. Together, we explored a truth that feels both challenging and freeing: the more focused we become on ourselves, the more anxious, insecure, and unsatisfied we often feel. In a culture that constantly tells us to build our own platform, protect our image, and chase self-fulfillment, Morgan offers a refreshing invitation to lift our eyes and fix them on Jesus instead. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why self-focus often leads to anxiety, comparison, and striving• The three struggles that commonly keep us stuck: pride, fear, and doubt• How confession, community, and God's Word help us break free from isolation• Simple ways to magnify Jesus in everyday life• Why the small, unseen acts of faithfulness matter more than we realize• How Mary's words, "My soul magnifies the Lord," can become our daily prayer If you've been feeling weary from carrying the weight of proving yourself, performing for others, or trying to control every outcome, I believe this conversation will encourage your heart. Friend, you were never created to make your own name great. You were created to magnify His. And as you do, you'll discover the joy, peace, and purpose your heart has been longing for all along.

What does it look like to stay planted in Jesus when life feels uncertain, uncomfortable, or costly? In episode one of our Summer Recap Series, Shelley Giglio sits down with Grammy Award-winning songwriter, worship leader, and longtime friend Brooke Ligertwood to talk about anointing, obedience, creativity, and surrender. Together, they explore the weight and wonder of being entrusted with God's calling… and how true freedom is often found not in striving, but in faithfully staying with Jesus one day at a time. Brooke shares personal stories about discovering songwriting at a young age, stewarding creativity through both worship, and learning that the goal of her life isn't success or recognition, but simply to remain close to Jesus. Shelley and Brooke also reflect on the beauty of being “good trees” – rooted, nourished, and trusting God alone with the fruit their lives produce. This conversation is for anyone who feels stretched, misunderstood, weary, or unsure of what obedience looks like in this season. You'll walk away encouraged to stay planted, take heart, and trust God with the outcome! If you want more from Brooke, you can find her at @brookeligertwood on Instagram or www.brookeligertwood.com.

Have you ever found yourself replaying someone else's words, assuming they were judging you? Or maybe you've caught yourself criticizing someone in your mind, convinced you're seeing the situation clearly. If so, you're not alone. This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I sat down with my friend Shannon Popkin to discuss her new book, Kinda Judgy: Finding Mercy for Myself and Others in Six Stories of the Bible. Together, we explored a topic that many of us struggle with but rarely talk about openly—judgment. What if the criticism we feel from others is often rooted in our own insecurities? What if the harsh standards we apply to others reveal places in our own hearts that need God's healing mercy? Through powerful stories like Jonah, the thief on the cross, and the woman caught in adultery, Shannon reminds us that while God is a righteous Judge, He is also abundantly merciful. His mercy changes how we see ourselves and how we see others. One of my favorite takeaways from our conversation was this: we often feel judged and become judgy in response. But Jesus shows us a different way. Though He was wrongly judged, He responded with compassion, forgiveness, and grace. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why judgment and insecurity are often connected• How contempt quietly damages our relationships• What Jonah's story reveals about our own hearts• How God's mercy transforms the way we treat others• Why the cross is the ultimate picture of love and compassion Friend, if you've ever struggled with being critical of yourself or others, this conversation will encourage you and point you back to the heart of God.

Send us Fan MailWhat do you do when someone hurts you, betrays you, lies on you, mistreats you, or seems to get away with doing wrong?In this episode of Hustle in Faith, we're talking about one of the hardest lessons Christians have to learn: not every battle is ours to fight. Romans 12:19 reminds us that vengeance belongs to God. But that does not mean Christians are called to be passive. There is a difference between seeking justice and seeking revenge.We're discussing how to release anger, avoid bitterness, seek God's wisdom, and allow Him to lead the strategy when we have been wronged. If you've been struggling with anger, betrayal, injustice, or the desire to get even, this episode will encourage you to trust God with the battle and the outcome.JOIN THE MOVEMENT:Faith to Launch – A community for Christian women ready to build with purpose (coming soon) https://faithtolaunch.lovable.app/FAITH-DRIVEN WOMEN WHO LAUNCH SERIES: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkkBA4-h1A6681JOJBa0KVRteD9urz7I&si=xTIv62BRH4ril_8BUY THE BOOK: HOW TO LIVE AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE, WITH OR WITHOUT MR.

What's up family?I've been thinking a lot about what it means to be faithful with anything that God has placed in our hands, especially when we may not always feel confident, qualified, or sure of where we fit, in the space of ministry.Sometimes we may look at other people's gifts, platforms, ministries, or callings and wonder if what God is doing in us is enough. But the more I sit with it, the more I'm reminded that growth is not always measured by platforms, numbers, titles, or visibility. Sometimes the deepest growth is what God is doing quietly in our hearts.In this episode, I talk through wrestling with the insecurity of being a woman in ministry, keeping the focus on Christ, and learning to trust that our testimony is enough when it points people back to the Savior.For anyone who feels unsure of their place, insecure in their calling, or tempted to compare what God is doing in their life to someone else's, I pray this episode reminds you that where God has you matters. Your home matters. Your local church matters. Your dorm matters. Keep the main thing the main thing: Christ, His glory, and making Him name known wherever He sends you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
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's up family? This week i'm back with a conversation on anxiety, surrender, and the peace of God.I've been going through Philippians 4 and what it means to bring everything to God in prayer: every request, every worry, every need, and every anxious thought. So often, we say we trust God, but our minds are still racing and our hearts are still carrying what He invited us to surrender. I talk through making our requests known to God with thanksgiving, the difference between reading scripture and truly meditating on it, and how His peace guards our hearts and minds in a way nothing else can.This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or tired from trying to figure everything out on their own. I pray this reminds you that God is not asking you to carry it alone. He is inviting you to come to Him, trust Him, and receive the peace that only He can give.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This week, I'm humbled and honored to bring you a conversation with someone whose ministry has made a huge impact in my walk recently— Pastor and Author Francis Chan. If you've been with me this season of In Totality, you know I've been taking my Patreon community through his latest book, Beloved, and this conversation is one that I've been praying for— and I cannot wait for you to hear it.Beloved has deeply shaped how I see my relationship with God. It confronted something I didn't even realize I was doing — trying to serve Him from a place of striving and performance, like I could somehow pay God back, instead of simply receiving His love as a daughter.Francis and I talk about what it means to know God as Father — not just as Judge or Lord or the One we serve — and how easy it is to miss the very thing we were made for: enjoying Him.We get into the difference between performing for God and truly abiding in Him, and why His love has to stay at the center of everything. You are going to want to listen to this more than once!My prayer for you is that this episode helps you slow down, receive, and remember — you are not just called to love Him. You are invited to remain in Him.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
So many of us are living with an identity shaped by the world, our feelings, our achievements, our past, our pain, our personality, or what other people have said about us. But scripture gives us a different foundation. Our identity is not something we discover inside ourselves; it is something declared by God.In this episode, I'm here with the team talking through what it means to be created in the image of God, reborn in Christ, and no longer defined by the old self, and I really enjoyed this conversation! We talk about why following your heart is not enough, why adding Christ onto parts of your life is different from being fully surrendered, and why true transformation is not renovation. it is resurrection.This conversation is for anyone who has been asking, “Do I really know who I am in Christ?"My prayer is that this episode reminds you that you are loved, adopted, justified, and called to live faithfully, not perfectly, but surrendered.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This week I'm super excited for you guys to listen in on this episode! I'm joined by Trey Heflin, who you may be familiar with if you follow 2819 Church's worship team.This season has been anchored in John 15, where Jesus reminds us to remain in His love. In this episode, that invitation continues through a conversation about worship, surrender, obedience, and what it truly means to give God your whole life.This is Trey's first-ever podcast appearance and I'm so honored he's here with us! We talk about the pace and responsibilities of ministry and stewardship, and learning how to slow down enough to hear God in the stillness. He shares how worship became more than music for him, and how true worship is not just the songs we sing, but the life we live in response to God's nature.This episode is for anyone who yearns to hear from God or learn how to worship Him with more than words. I pray it reminds you that God is not just after a moment. He is after your heart, your life, and your yes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
