Overwhelmed and Guilty? Faithful Motherhood Isn't Perfect Are you a working mom who feels like you're constantly falling short? Like biblical motherhood is some Pinterest-perfect ideal you'll never reach? You're not alone—and you're not failing. In this episode, we talk about what faithful motherhood really looks like in the midst of work, family, and daily overwhelm. We'll explore why so many moms feel guilt and pressure, how the culture of “perfect motherhood” can distort God's truth, and most importantly, how you can experience freedom, grace, and real faithfulness in the life you actually live. You'll walk away with: A clear reminder that biblical motherhood isn't about perfection. Encouragement to release guilt and comparison. Practical ways to invite God into your busy, messy, real life. Scripture and reflection to anchor your faith in the everyday moments. Scriptures discussed: Colossians 3:23 – Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord. Psalm 46:1 – God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Proverbs 31:25 – She is clothed with strength and dignity. This episode is perfect for working Christian moms who want to embrace their motherhood journey without pressure, guilt, or comparison—learning to walk faithfully in the life God has given them.

When good things become too much, it's often not because we're doing the wrong things — but because we're doing too many of the right ones. In this re-aired episode of the Organized On Purpose Podcast, we're talking about the quiet burnout that happens when we say yes out of guilt, obligation, or fear of disappointing others, rather than out of discernment. Many women who love to serve find themselves with schedules filled with meaningful commitments — meetings, projects, ministries, and responsibilities that once felt like blessings. Over time, those good things can begin to drain us and crowd out the rest, margin, and clarity we need to thrive in this season. In this episode, I gently walk you through three questions for faithful discernment to help you pause before your next yes and ask: Is this life-giving or depleting? Am I responding out of guilt or obedience? Does this align with what God is asking of me right now? We talk about: The hidden cost of always saying yes Why guilt is not a healthy guide The difference between serving faithfully and overgiving How to say no without shame Creating rhythms that support what God is calling you to in this season This episode is for women who want to live faithfully, serve generously, and still have space to breathe — without burning out.

Let's do this! The Cult of Hockey podcast, by the Faithful and for the Faithful. Tonight, Kurt Leavins and David Staples of the Edmonton Journal dig into the Edmonton Oilers 6-4 win over the Penguins of Pittsburgh.

Hello, to you listening in Neenah, Wisconsin!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.A few years ago I had to make the decision to send my kitty over the Rainbow Bridge. He had been living pretty well with kidney disease but I noticed changes. What to do? Is it time? We're coming into the holidays. Will the home visit vet  be available?The day before they were to leave for a week with their son and daughter-in-law my sister and her husband were faced with the Rainbow Bridge decision for their good and faithful dog who had been ailing with cancer and old age. What to do? Cancel the trip? Find a dog sitter?Recently, my friend was placed in a position of having to leave a relationship because it had become very difficult and dangerous. What to do? How to do it? When to do it?Maybe you see yourself in these situations. I have a solution. The choice we're called on to make isn't between what is right and what is wrong. The decision is between what is right and what is best.My sister and I knew we had done right by our animal companions over the many years of time together and care. Now it was time to do what was best for them. Likewise, my friend knew that she had done what was right for the relationship; now it was time to do what was best for herself.  Practical Tip: When faced with a situation that places you at a crossroads of what to do and how to do it, consider asking yourself: How might I choose between what is right and what is best? I just know you will come to the right answer. Thank you for listening.You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

2025 Advent Devotionals: “Longing for the Presence of God”Copyright © 2025 Steve Hoogerhyde. All rights reserved.All Bible references are taken from the New International Version (2011) unless otherwise noted.

As the year winds down, the noise of the past year gets louder. We see what we failed at and all that we've achieved. And then as January approaches, the world shouts at us to set our New Year resolutions, to chase fresh starts, to reinvent ourselves, to do more, be better, and try harder. But what if what your soul actually needs isn't a fresh start, but rest and obedience? Jesus doesn't heal through pressure, He heals through presence.  In this episode, Lindsey Maestas shares a gentle, Jesus-centered reflection for the holiday season and end of the year. She challenges herself, and her listeners, to live faithfully this year instead of doing everything to be hotter, richer, more, more, more.  Instead of pushing self-improvement or hustle spirituality, this episode invites you to slow down, breathe, and return to the heart of the gospel: Jesus is faithful, and he doesn't call us to live a burnt out life. Rooted in Scripture and lived experience, this episode speaks directly to women who feel quietly exhausted, emotionally spent, or spiritually worn down—especially those navigating marriage struggles, burnout, anxiety, or disappointment with how the year turned out. Have you already ordered my new book?! Don't Burn Your Own House Down: Prioritizing Your Marriage, Your Spouse, and Yourself for a Deeper Connection is available for pre-order NOW!  Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for more episodes like this!

How to Build Cohesive, Faithful, Application Driven Sermons Matt Brown shows how every biblical passage has a built in structure and how recognising that structure can transform the clarity, focus, and impact of your sermons. Recorded at our Longmont, Colorado training event.Matt explains that a passage works like a bridge. Every bridge has intentional direction, interconnected sections, and an intended destination. Scripture is the same. When you trace the flow of thought the biblical author has crafted, you begin to preach with greater confidence and sharper purpose.You will learn how to:identify the major movements of a passagefollow the progression of ideas that reveal the author's intentturn the structure of the text into the structure of your sermondevelop application that grows naturally from the passagepreach cohesive, clear, and compelling messagesUsing Acts 11 as a worked example, Matt models how to observe the text, divide it into meaningful units, see how each section contributes to the whole, and discover the central idea your sermon should advance.Matt has been married for almost 20 years and has 4 amazing kids.  He has been serving in vocational ministry for 15 years, preaching expositional sermons in a variety of contexts from college ministry to lead church planter.  He loves pastoring pastors and coaching church planters to see the Great Commission advance through healthy multiplying churches.  He is a part of the Crossway Church Planting Network (crosswaynetwork.org) and has been involved in leading multiple Simeon Trust preaching workshops.  He loves Christ, coffee, and Chipotle (and alliteration).   They are currently in process of planting a church in Golden Co, called Golden City Church, which is the forth church plant they have been directly been a part of.goldencitychurch.com For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective

In this Rising Generations Family Service, Daniel speaks to the beauty and complexity of family life — reminding us that God doesn't wait for perfection before He moves. Through stories of children leading with faith, families stepping into obedience, and lives being formed in the midst of tension and challenge, we see how God meets us right where we are. Drawing from Psalm 84 and the image of the Valley of Baca, this message reframes the valleys we walk through — not as places to avoid, but as places where God forms resilience, faith, and courage. From moments of honest struggle to a gentle reminder from the Father's heart, this message carries one clear word over our year: well done. An encouragement for parents, families, and anyone walking through a hard season, this message reminds us that obedience — not perfection — is what delights the heart of God.

What happens when faithful Christians disagree—and refuse to caricature one another?In this episode of Lead Time, Tim Ahlman and Jack Kalleberg sit down with Pastor David Bukes for an honest, brotherly conversation about some of the most sensitive and debated issues in the Lutheran Church—without turning it into a fight.This is not a debate episode.It's a listening episode.Together, they explore:- Where disagreement is genuinely adiaphora—and where it isn't- How “liturgical pietism” and “it's just contextual” can both miss the mark- Why drawing lines too tightly or too loosely can damage unity- The pastoral tension between hospitality and faithfulness, especially around the Lord's Supper- What faithful disagreement actually looks like when everyone shares the same confession- Rather than trying to “win,” this conversation models something increasingly rare: theological conviction held with humility, charity, and love for the Church.If you've ever felt skeptical of church conversations that seem polarized, dismissive, or reactionary—this episode is for you.If you care about unity without compromise—this episode is for you.If you believe the Church is strengthened by honest dialogue rooted in Christ—this episode is for you!Our hope is not that you leave with every question answered, but that you leave encouraged to wrestle together, grounded in the gospel, for the sake of Christ's Church.Join the LCMS Current!(weekly newsletter covering relevant LCMS topics!): https://www.uniteleadership.org/thelcmscurrentThe Best Pizza Franchise OpportunityAnthony & Luca's Pizza Kitchen is the hottest new Cheesesteak & NY Pizza Franchise.Support the showJoin the Lead Time Newsletter!

As we take a close look at the song "O Come All Ye Faithful", sometimes we wonder about the "feelings" of Christmas. The Shepherds were in awe of Jesus, the Magi brought gifts and worshipped Him, and Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. When was the last time you were in awe? Have you ever beheld glory? Maybe this Christmas you can experience it all as though it were the first Christmas. Join us as we dive into the Christmas story.Each December, familiar carols fill our homes, our cars, our churches and our playlists. We sing them once a year–but their truths were never meant to be seasonal. In “A Christmas Playlist” we'll explore four beloved Christmas songs and discover how their powerful messages of hope, peace, presence, and joy–still speak to us today.

Study of the Book of Revelation

From May 16, 2022: Today, Lawfare and Goat Rodeo released the first two episodes of Allies, a podcast series that traces the U.S.'s efforts to protect Afghan interpreters, translators and other partners through the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program. That effort culminated in the U.S. evacuation from Afghanistan in August 2021, when thousands of the U.S.'s local partners were left behind. In seven episodes, Allies will take listeners through the decade-long effort to honor America's promises to its Afghan partners.Episode 1: “Faithful and Valuable Service” opens at the Kabul airport this past August, where the failure of the SIV program contributed to the chaos. Then, we rewind to just before 9/11, when the U.S. government had little regional, let alone linguistic, expertise on Afghanistan. After the invasion, that knowledge gap needed to be filled rapidly, so the U.S. began hiring local partners through military contractors. They became essential partners, and it was nearly impossible for any U.S. platoon, provincial reconstruction team or diplomat to operate without interpreters and translators. They were the U.S.'s eyes and ears. To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

The second part of Mark 4 brings us to this question: How are you going to shine for Christ? In addition, Jesus admonishes us to be careful what we listen to. We also get the encouragment that God is doing something every time we open the Bible and every time we share the Word with someone else. Look for additional resources, including PDFs for discussion and additional study, on Amberalbeeswenson.org.

Heaven and Nature Sing, O Come, All Ye Faithful: Daniel Owen | December 14th, 2025

Ruth 3 ends not with celebration, but with waiting—showing us that God often follows his promises with an invitation to pause. Like Ruth, we may receive a promise without immediate fulfillment, learning to rest in the space between promise and completion. Faithful waiting looks back on God's past faithfulness instead of present fears and values his presence above any particular outcome. Our waiting is never wasted, because it's not ultimately about what we're waiting for, but who we're waiting with.

(NIV) Luke 11:13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ASK HIM!” (NIV) 2. KEEP CIRCLING TO BREAKTHROUGH OBSTACLES Joshua 6:1-5 Now the gates of Jericho were securely barred because of the Israelites. No one went out and no one came in. 2 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men. 3 March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. 4 Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets. 5 When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in.” (NIV) 4 QUICK LESSONS ON HOW TO CIRCLE OBSTACLES FOR A BREAKTHROUGH   2A.

In this week's message from Pastor Talaat McNeely, we continue the Nobody Famous: Humble Beginnings, Eternal Impact series with a powerful reminder that God sees those who serve faithfully behind the scenes.Using the life of Tychicus—a man most people have never heard of—Pastor Talaat teaches that faithfulness is greater than fame, consistency matters more than clout, and true greatness is found in quiet obedience. Through this message, you'll be challenged to keep showing up, to carry what God has placed in your hands with care, and to remember that encouragement itself is a ministry that can change lives.If you've ever felt unseen, overlooked, or like your work for God doesn't matter, this episode will stir your faith and remind you that heaven keeps record even when earth doesn't.

December 14th, 2025 | Attributes of Advent | Luke 2:1-7In this message from the Attributes of Advent series, Pastor Todd Kauntiz invites us to lift our eyes to the providence and faithfulness of God revealed in the Christmas story. What many see as a familiar passage in Luke 2 becomes a powerful window into the heart of a God who is sovereign over history and unwavering in keeping His promises.As Pastor Todd walks through the birth of Jesus, we see how God orchestrated rulers, decrees, geography, and family lineage to fulfill ancient promises—that the Messiah would come from the line of David and be born in Bethlehem. From Caesar Augustus' decree to a manger in an insignificant town, nothing was accidental. God was providentially guiding history to bring redemption to the world.This message is especially for those carrying uncertainty, weariness, or anxiety about the future. Through fulfilled prophecy and God's faithfulness in the first Advent, we are reminded that the same God is still at work today—and can be trusted with what we are still waiting for. Because God has proven faithful before, we can place our hope in His promises yet to come.Listen and be encouraged: God is in control, He is always moving, and He always keeps His promises.Do you know JESUS?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER?: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nblongview.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT through giving: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠⁠

Pastor Rodney taught from Paul's final words to Timothy, calling the church to faithful endurance—a life anchored in God's Word, willing to endure hardship, and committed to finishing the race with faith. He reminded us that following Jesus isn't glamorous, culture will often reject sound teaching, and hard times are inevitable, but Scripture equips and sustains us to remain courageous, focused, and faithful. Like a soldier, athlete, and farmer, believers are called to live disciplined, obedient lives and continually fan into flame the Spirit of God within them as they press on to the end.

God's Faithful Purpose for Your Life - 1 Thessalonians 5:23-34

Preaching: Terry Johnson "The Attributes of God -9" Faithful and True XVI. Psalms for All of Life Psalm 25

This week we continue in our series called "Waiting", a journey through Thessalonians. This week's message from Pastor Cole Tawney is titled “Pray with Faith”. As followers of Jesus, not only do we believe in the one who is Faithful, but we pray with faith to the one who can do immeasurably more than we can ask or imagine. Thanks for watching!

The return of Jesus draws near, so the Christian is to live, awake, alert and holy lives.

Welcome to Valleybrook Church Online!We're so glad you're here. At Valleybrook, we exist to know and share the life-changing love of God.✝️ Today's Message: Christmas is for the Faithful - Joseph (Matthew 1:18–25) Part of our #Christmas for Everyone series

Pastor Blake Burrough delves into Luke 2:8–20, highlighting how God fulfills His ancient promise by revealing His glory in the birth of Jesus, not to the powerful or polished, but to unlikely outsiders like shepherds, showing that Christmas is for sinners and the overlooked. The angelic announcement and singing heavenly army proclaim that Jesus' birth is God's decisive invasion against sin, death, and the serpent, pointing to the greater glory of God dwelling with His people in the incarnation. As Pastor Blake emphasizes, when God's glory is revealed in Christ, fear turns to joy, and those who behold Him are transformed to worship, treasure, and proclaim the good news.

Christ Our King: The Word Enthroned 12.14.25 Pastor Tony Felich   2 Samuel 7:12 When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. [13] He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.[16] And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. Your throne shall be established forever.'”   Psalm 2:6 “As for me, I have set my King on Zion, my holy hill.” [7] I will tell of the decree: The LORD said to me, “You are my Son; today I have begotten you. [8] Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possession.   Micah 5:2 But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from of old, from ancient days.   Matthew 2:1 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, [2] saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”   Philippians 2:9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, [10] so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, [11] and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.   Revelation 19:11 Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. [12] His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. [13] He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God. [14] And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. [15] From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. [16] On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.   WLC 45 Q. How doth Christ execute the office of a king? A. Christ executeth the office of a king, in calling out of the world a people to himself, and giving them officers, laws, and censures, by which he visibly governs them; in bestowing saving grace upon his elect, rewarding their obedience, and correcting them for their sins, preserving and supporting them under all their temptations and sufferings, restraining and overcoming all their enemies, and powerfully ordering all things for his own glory and their good; and also in taking vengeance on the rest, who know not God and obey not the gospel.”

Christians suffer in a unique way as they are strengthened by God to fulfill their ministry

Start with honesty: none of us has a spotless record, and pretending we do only delays the obedience God asks of us today. We dig into the parable of the two sons to show why repentance is measured by action, not memory, and we highlight Rahab's story as a powerful reminder that God writes redemption into the lives of imperfect people who choose faithfulness now.From there, we turn to Titus 2 and get practical about the virtues that steady a home and strengthen a community. Temperance, dignity, sensible speech, and the work of teaching what is good give our faith credibility. Revelation 19 then lifts our eyes, reminding us that the wedding feast of the Lamb and the triumph of the Rider called Faithful and True are not abstract theology but the anchor for perseverance and hope when the world feels hostile and disordered.We round out the conversation with Psalm 147's comfort for the brokenhearted, Proverbs 31's sober counsel to leaders, and a Medal of Honor spotlight on Sylvester Bonnafon Jr. History speaks, too: we read FDR's Pearl Harbor address and Harry Truman's 1949 Christmas message, drawing lessons about courage, clarity, peace, and service. Through Scripture and history, we argue for a life that names evil, loves neighbors, and trusts God for victory.

Send me a Text Message!The cosmic Christmas was a military strike to the forces of evil. But those forces still operate, which is why, when it comes to the hard stuff that the church of Smyrna was going through Jesus peels back the curtain, in essence to tell them that as bad as things are, they are worse than you think.

Let's do this! The Cult of Hockey podcast. By the Faithful and for the Faithful. Today Kurt Leavins of the Edmonton Journal digs into the Edmonton Oilers 4-1 win over the Red Wings of Buffalo Game Overview: The Oilers celebrated a satisfying victory, with the team showcasing a solid performance against the Detroit Red Wings. David and Kurt noted that the game felt secure once the Oilers netted their third goal, with the team effectively shutting down any potential threats from their opponents. The hosts emphasized the importance of managing fatigue, especially during back-to-back games, which can significantly affect player performance. Zach Hyman's Comeback: One of the standout performances in the game came from Zach Hyman, who scored a hat trick. Kurt pointed out that Hyman's recent struggles stemmed from a wrist injury sustained during the playoffs last year, which raised concerns about his ability to return to form. However, his performance in this game suggested that he might be regaining his previous prowess. David recalled a moment from a prior game where Hyman demonstrated improved wrist strength, hinting that he could be back to his old self. Hyman's contributions are crucial for the Oilers, especially as the team looks to enhance its scoring depth. The Importance of Team Dynamics: David and Kurt highlighted the synergy between Hyman, Connor McDavid, and Leon Draisaitl, noting how their on-ice chemistry resulted in beautiful plays. One example discussed was Hyman's first goal, which was set up by a remarkable pass from McDavid, demonstrating the patience and vision that elite players possess. This discussion underscored the significance of teamwork and communication in achieving success on the ice. Evan Bouchard's Performance: The podcast also touched on Evan Bouchard's contributions and the criticisms he faces regarding his defensive skills. While both hosts acknowledged his offensive talent, they agreed that Bouchard needs to improve his defensive play, particularly during crucial moments. David recounted a story from Gary Galley about Ray Bourque, emphasizing that great players often take risks to make exceptional plays, which can lead to turnovers. This analogy served to frame the discussion about Bouchard, suggesting that while he may have defensive lapses, his offensive capabilities are invaluable. Conclusion: The Oilers' recent victory showcased not only individual brilliance but also the importance of teamwork and resilience. Zach Hyman's return to form is a promising sign for the team, as is the continued excellence of McDavid and Draisaitl. Additionally, while Bouchard's defensive play may need refinement, his offensive contributions are vital for the team's success. As the season progresses, monitoring these players' performances will be crucial for the Oilers' aspirations.

Eve Harow speaks with longtime Temple Mount activist Yisrael Medad on the different aspects of Chanuka. The Hashmonaim/ Maccabbees rededicated the Temple after the war with the Seleucid Greeks; today we can rededicate ourselves to the values and freedoms for which they fought. For example: The ability to pray on the Temple Mount, the necessity of not allowing Israel in particular and the West at large to be intimidated by Muslims and others who would deny us those basic rights, and more. Chanuka in the land is felt in its natural form. Olive oil it is. To life and light.
