Habakkuk found peace through prayer as he reflected on God's mighty deeds in history and His faithfulness to His people.

The book of Psalms is essentially a prayer-book within the Bible. The Psalms are prayers, expressing a wide range of feelings, longings, hopes, and praises. Each week, our preaching team will offer an in-depth study of a particular Psalm and then lead us in praying the Psalm – by walking through the Psalm's verses, allowing the Biblical phrases to shape and guide our personal prayers. We look forward to building a reservoir of Psalms that can enrich our spiritual life.

So many questions. Why is this happening? Who do can we call? What can we do? Is this legal? How can we help? What is DACA? On Friday, July 17, 2021, a federal judge in southern Texas ordered the Biden administration to cease approving new DACA applications. The order declared that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, known as DACA, was “created in violation of the law and whose existence violates the law.” This order creates a significant impact affecting tens of thousands of young immigrants. Let's back up. After reviewing a lawsuit filed by Attorney Ken Paxton of Texas along with other Attorney Generals, the judge stated that the 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama, did not have the power to stop deportations, give work permits to Dreams, nor did he have the power to set up DACA. So now, there's an end to accepting new applications for DACA, which affects young immigrants. In a five-page order Friday afternoon, U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen declared, “From this date forward, the United States of America, its departments, agencies, officers, agents, and employees are hereby enjoined from administering the DACA program.” What does all this mean? There tends to be disinformation and misinformation all around us. Questions from our listeners of the #NIMosa podcast and viewers of News in Motion moved me to invite my friend and someone who knows about immigration, DACA, and Dreamers. Here are some of the questions that have been asked. You, too, might be wondering the answers to some of these questions. 1) Can people still apply for DACA after the judge ordered the Biden administration to stop approving applications? 2) As voters, what can we do to help? Is there a letter template or a script to share? 3) How can a person qualify for DACA? 4) President Obama was the 44th president of the United States. How can Judge Paxton make the statement, "President Obama did not have the power to give work permits to Dreamers, or set up DACA in the first place"? 5) What does the order do for those already enrolled in DACA? 6) What's happening at the border? Is there anything we can do as voters? 7) Is DACA tied to Voting Rights? Is it possible that voting rights aren't getting passed because we would then have the power to get DACA passed for good? 8) What is the DACA process? There's so much out there that I do not know what's true, a lie, or a political spin. 9) Is there a difference between migrants crossing the border and DACA? 10) I read an article stating that lawmakers such as the AG's are reportedly arguing DACA recipients take away from state resources for health care and education. I do not believe that is true. How can we change the narrative? Over the next twenty-five minutes, listen in to our guest, Sarah Quezada. Sarah is navigating faith, justice, and culture. She was born and raised Southern girl, who grew up eating grits, playing basketball, and going to church. She is the author of, Love Undocumented: Risking Trust in a Fearful World. Her writing on immigration, cross-cultural life, and faith has been featured on Christianity Today, Relevant, Sojourners, ChurchLeaders.com, Off the Page, and elsewhere. She is married to Billy. Together, we walked through the complex U.S. immigration system and delightfully enjoy the humor and craziness of a cross-cultural, bilingual relationship. Together they have two children - Gabriella and Isaac - and we are trying our best to raise them bicultural and trilingual-ish. To that end, we speak as much Spanglish as possible at home, and they study Mandarin in school. She has a weekly email, which I call Everyday Justice. It's a quick list to keep you informed and inspired as we navigate faith, justice, and culture in our world today.

LIFE WITH AWESOME GOD
Habakkuk 3-1-19-1- Habakkuk had joyful confidence because of God's covenant promises fulfilled in the past and His sovereign power displayed.-2- We can have his same peace through Christ who gives us His peace in our troubled world.
On this episode, Nick and Eli begin with a prompt: "How might we promote and integrate optimism in the world today?" It leads into discussion around the definition of optimism, how it differs from hope, and different ways that we can each integrate a more optimistic approach and outlook to each waking moment.
The dawn of the sixteenth century in Western Europe brought with it much anxiety about the future. The political, cultural, and religious landscape were in a period of transition unlike anything the region had experienced in centuries. The status quo of the Medieval period was coming to an end. What would replace it? It was in the midst of this time of upheaval that the Protestant Reformation was birthed. The anxiety of the age fueled the flames of this movement which offered great comfort and assurance to God's people. For the official teaching of the Roman Catholic church left people without comfort but only a vague hope that through acts of penance they had assuaged the anger of God against their sins. Reformers such as Martin Luther and John Calvin, however, discovered that the Word of God did not lead people to such uncertainty concerning their relationship with God. Rather, the promise of the gospel was full forgiveness, acceptance, and love through the life and death of Christ Jesus alone. Similarly, we live in an age of rapid change and anxiety. There is a lack of identity and a surplus of chaos. Just as the Reformers turned to the Word of God for direction and support so too must we. As we turn our attention to Psalm 46 this Sunday we will see that all of God's people can be comforted by God's presence in the midst of a dangerous world because of Christ's saving power. It is no wonder that this Psalm was the inspiration for Martin Luther's famous hymn, A Mighty Fortress is Our God. To come prepared for the sermon take time this week to read and to meditate upon Psalm 46, Exodus 14:13, Isaiah 41:8-13; 43:1-2, Matthew 28:18-20, 2 Timothy 1:7, Hebrews 2:15 and this article: Where is Your Refuge?
I know two things: 1) the world is full of fear and 2) love can solve all the world's problems! Today, we'll focus on 3 fears that are driving certain behaviors in this country and what we can do about it. Big Picture: examine yourself and ask what's driving you, fear or love. The intended result of this episode is a little more peace and a little less stress for you- AND it might scramble your beliefs a little- come with an open mind!

One of the main things this pandemic has caused is fear. People are afraid to be in close proximity to other human beings. While social distancing is a tool to help combat the pandemic, after the pandemic is over the experience of social distancing will leave most of the human population scarred with fear. This embedded fear in people's souls will keep many inside even when it is safe to travel, and those who do venture out will do so tentatively with a deep remnant of fear, keeping wary of other humans. To succeed in the calling God has given us, we must combat the fear that is and will be felt by many. We can fight fear by leaning on our faith for protection while doing everyday activities in a world that is afraid. Links Prayer Requests Partnership
Dr. Don Lough Jr. reminds us from Psalm 46 that when we experience fear and anxiety, we must remember that God is our refuge and strength. Dr. Lough serves as Executive Director of Word of Life Fellowship in Schroon Lake, New York. (This message was originally broadcast on February 13, 2018.)
We're starting a new week of social distancing and quarantines, and we're continuing to talk to those who are on the frontlines of dealing with COVID-19. People who are stepping up to lead and to serve in a really tough time. Last week we had Carson Feix and Chris Shadid on to talk about some of the medical situation. Today we're switching gears to the church. I'm so thankful to have Dr. Todd Fisher on the podcast today. Todd is the pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church in Shawnee Oklahoma and he also teaches at Oklahoma Baptist University and at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. At the end of the episode, Todd quotes A.W. Tozer, "A fearful world needs a fearless church.” What a great word for these times.

Living Fearlessly in a Fearful World | Second Baptist Church Clinton Tn March 15, 2020 Sermon | Second Baptist Church Clinton Tn Topic: Living Fearlessly in a Fearful World Series: General Topics Key Speaker: Dr. Michael Thompson
It's obvious that people are scared and afraid of the unknown. There is a lot of fear in the air because of the Coronavirus. But, in these moments of adversity, there lies a better solution. We cannot live in fear. In this episode, I talk about the three secrets to overcoming fear and find peace.
Here's this week's sermon from Freedom Christian Fellowship
Sarah Quezada is an author, advocate, and business owner. She has a master's in sociology and nearly two decades of experience working across cultures and leading conversations about justice and faith. Her first book, Love Undocumented: Risking Trust in a Fearful World, chronicled her journey through the immigration system with her husband, Billy, who emigrated from Guatemala City.
On a deep level, we all have an intuitive craving or attachment. This frantic junkie mind gets reinforced with fear and hunger and drives us to suffering. We can learn to identify it and work with it over time to reduce it. This is the job of the Buddhist. 11:19 | Extracted from teachings given at Vajrayana Institute, September 22, 2017. Full teaching here.
“Know your own mind,” sums up the Buddhist view. Consider the Buddha’s view that the mind is the root cause for both pleasant and unpleasant emotions. We might not be able to change difficult external things, but we can change how we internally process things in the present. Rather than blame the outside world for our troubles, look at what we can change. That’s the Buddha’s cognitive therapy. 20:52| Extracted from teachings given at Vajrayana Institute, September 22, 2017. Full teaching here.
At the base of many disturbing emotions lies fear. Just look at an angry person’s face. We must learn the mechanics of these emotions – their causes and effects. 3:41| Extracted from teachings given at Vajrayana Institute, September 22, 2017. Full teaching here.
Dr. Jeanette welcomes Karen May, author of Be Not Afraid; Living With Faith in the Midst of a Fearful World to discuss what is the fear we are living with. Have been born into fear and live with fear of the unknown through shame, guilt and loss until the day we leave this world? What is the meaning of the world fear? Will we be able to let the chain go and be free to live a life of love, respect and honor without fear holding us at bay? As Dr. Jeanette shares: 'fear is the driver of the human existence and it is paralyzing people'. What does the bible say about fear and is there a purpose for it showing up at this time; perhaps so we can finally explore it in all its presence and allow it to release from our heart and soul.
