The Lord loves to move towards people to leave them forever changed. We're invited to prepare the way for him to meet us and others.
God wants the people around us to experience life change and invites us to partner with him in bringing about those encounters
The violent deaths of four teenagers in an Austin yogurt shop in 1991 forever changed the city, and Austin's collective trauma is on full display in a new HBO documentary series, “The Yogurt Shop Murders.” Over the years, detectives have tried to find the killers, and two people were even convicted – but later released after being cleared by DNA. Still unsolved, the killings of Amy Ayers, 13; Eliza Thomas, 17; and sisters Jennifer Harbison, 17, and Sarah Harbison, 15, rocked the teenage years of host Nikki DaVaughn, she shares in today's episode with the series' director, Margaret Brown. The first episode is out now, and three more will be released in the coming weeks
Falling (back) in love with some parts of your old life can keep you from the new life Christ has for you.
There might be some shame and self-doubt, but an encounter with Jesus is going to leave you forever changed. I want us to consider if there are any places of failure in our lives that are still hanging over us, weighing us down, causing some shame. Let Jesus meet you in that place today.
Hello to you Lorraine, listening in Corona del Mar, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for a story) for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga. It was early morning when I lifted the shade and looked out the airplane window at the brown, mid-September harvested fields of Spain below me, stretching as far as the eye could see. I felt sick, gut-clenching, breath-holding, throat-constricting sick. What a stupid idea! What was I thinking! How ridiculous, foolish even, to even imagine that I could walk across Spain - alone - as a pilgrim - with nothing more than a backpack and a guide book. Who was I kidding?As the plane began its descent into Madrid, I had already made up my mind that I could not, should not, and would not walk the Camino de Santiago. I was no pilgrim. I would pick up my backpack and catch the next flight. I was going back home.What happened next? Tucked between the pages of the guide book I was holding was an envelope and in the envelope a short message from my story galpal, Lorraine. Her first words were “WELL DONE!”Her words continued: As you read this thousands of feet above the earth (and how could she have known that?) you may be wondering why I gave you a “WELL DONE!” card to start your Camino de Santiago journey. Regardless of what does or doesn't happen from here on out, you will be forever changed simply because you showed up. And that, my friend, is “WELL DONE!”What could I do? What would you do?The plane descended, taxied to the Madrid Airport gate, and I disembarked with the rest of the passengers. I found my way to baggage claim, through customs, and out of the terminal looking for the bus that would take me across Madrid to the station for the train to Pamplona where I over-nighted before taking another bus to St. Jean Pied de Port, France to finally begin my Camino de Santiago. I walked out of France, over the Pyrenees Mountains, into Spain, and then 500 miles on foot to Santiago.Since then I say my life is BC & AC: Before Camino and After Camino. Not a day goes by that I don't recall my pilgrimage, relying on the kindness of strangers, and the unforgettable words that gave me the courage to set out: WELL DONE!Story Prompt: Who gave you a hand up when you needed it most and expected it least? What happened next? Write that story and tell it out loud!Thank you for listening! You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

In 2023 her heart stopped for 16 minutes - and she saw something that shattered her worldview. In this live interview, we explores her powerful near-death experience and what transformed her spiritual path forever.
Hilarious title but this is deep, folks. Many of us desperately need to be reminded of the powerful little conjunction: BUT. God's redemptive and victorious work hinges on this little word: the Cross BUT the Resurrection, hard BUT take heart, impossible BUT possible with God, death BUT eternal life. Join us for this five-week series as we reframe the hard in life and make room for hope!
Jesus meets us, works in us and through us, even when our faith is weak .
Villains have become a focus in modern stories. God has always focused on villains, but He doesn't want to understand them, he wants to redeem them.
Jesus sets us right so that we can make right the wrong we have done.
All of us experience barriers that keep make change feel impossible, but those barriers can't keep us from Jesus' life changing power.
If Jesus can bring freedom and defeat death in his resurrection, then we can say with confidence that Jesus has power and authority to bring freedom from whatever might oppress us.
When Christ acts in our lives we have the freedom to be bold and share our stories.
Read the Scriptures and do whatever you can to understand it. Then look for any opportunity to obey and do it.
We all hunger for something more in our lives, and God is the only one who can truly satisfy our hunger.
Is your misunderstanding about the character of God keeping you from experiencing the power and joy of confession?
Confession in nobody's favorite subject, but when we confess our sins, God is faithful to forgive us through the blood of Christ.
Will the ceasefire between Israel and Iran actually hold? How might Iran respond to the unprecedented American attacks on its nuclear program? And more broadly, how have events over the last two weeks changed the entire security dynamic of the Middle East? I'm privileged to bring you a conversation with one of the foremost experts on these questions. Dalia Dassa Kaye is a senior fellow at the UCLA Burkle Center for International Relations and author of the forthcoming book Enduring Hostility: The Making of America's Iran Policy, which will be published in December. We kick off by discussing the events of the last few days before having a deeper conversation about Israel's strategic calculus moving forward, Iran's options for retaliating against the United States, and whether the American bombing of Iran may have traded short-term gains for a long-term disaster. https://www.globaldispatches.org/40PercentOff Or, support the show at full price: https://www.globaldispatches.org/
God hadn't forgotten Moses and God hasn't forgotten you. Be open to the signs of God. Move towards them when they come.
God uses all kinds of circumstances to get our attention, but whatever He uses, our job is to be ready to stop and listen.
Nobody wants crisis. All of us are going to experience it. So don't waste a crisis. Wasting a crisis is when it doesn't drive you to the one who is Lord over the crisis.
Jesus is never too busy to help us with those things that prevent us from being free and healed. He sees you.
When we obey the words of Jesus, it positions us for the Spirit to forever change us.
We may not be able to predict the timing of an encounter with the Spirit, but we can wait with expectancy.
What would make it worth not letting anything get in the way, pressing through any obstacle that might present itself, staying the course for as long as it took?
We all need to be changed, but sometimes we don't know what we need God to change. Even though Jesus knows what Bartimaeus needs, He still asks Bartimaeus what he wants Him to do. Jesus wants to change us as we follow Him.
Jesus has the power to heal: physically, spiritually, emotionally, relationally. Do you believe this?
If encounters with other people have the potential to change the trajectory of our lives, then imagine what's possible when we encounter the maker of all reality, the one who loves us deeply. We could be forever changed.
In this episode, we crack open something most believers have never even noticed: In Genesis 2:12, God says the gold of the land was “good.” Wait, what? Before money was minted, before greed and shame twisted its meaning, God placed gold in Eden... and He called it good. That same word—“good”—used for trees, land, animals, and all creation. Money wasn't cursed. It was created by God and called "good". We dive into: The 8 times gold is mentioned in Genesis—and why that number matters. Why gold is incorruptible (literally) and what that symbolizes. How Abraham's wealth wasn't just allowed—it was celebrated. The surprising truth about opulence and what God really designed money for. Why your discomfort with money might not be holy… it might be unhealed. Resources Mentioned:

How the COVID-19 pandemic affected the personal and professional lives of Iowans.
As the audience was settling in for an evening of entertainment in one of the swankiest nightclubs in the Midwest, a busboy approached the mic and asked everyone to exit the sprawling building. Soon, the place was engulfed. The May 28, 1977, fire at the Beverly Hills Supper Club was a deadly disaster that subsequent investigations found was not only preventable, but had been predicted, too. The lawsuits that followed changed the landscape of class-action litigation in America.

Honoring Your Loved One While Thriving in Grief Episode Description: In this episode of Healing Starts with the Heart, grief specialist Sharon Brubaker explores the powerful connection between honoring a loved one's memory and finding personal growth through grief. She challenges the common belief that grieving and thriving are opposites, showing how they can coexist. Through personal stories and practical guidance, Sharon helps listeners embrace healing while keeping their loved one's legacy alive. Key Points Discussed: The Coexistence of Grief and Growth Grief doesn't mean a life of endless suffering, and thriving doesn't mean forgetting your person. Healing involves learning to carry grief while finding purpose and moments of joy. Honoring Their Memory Through Storytelling Sharing stories keeps your loved one's presence alive in your heart and helps others who are grieving. Personal anecdotes, cherished memories, and creative expressions can become healing tools. How Loss Deepens Relationships Grief can shift the way we interact with others, often leading to deeper connections with family and friends. Simple gestures like saying “I love you” more often or creating new traditions in their honor can be powerful acts of remembrance. Finding Meaning in Grief Reflecting on how grief has changed your perspective, passions, or career can help channel pain into personal growth. Identifying lessons from your loss can shape the way you move forward while still honoring your person. Journal Questions for Reflection: What are the ways you currently honor your loved one's memory? How has grief reshaped your relationships with others? What lessons have you learned from your journey through loss? How can sharing your person's story bring healing to you and others? Conclusion: Grief is life-changing, but it doesn't mean you have to be forever broken. Sharon encourages listeners to find ways to keep their loved one's spirit alive while embracing growth and healing. By sharing their stories and allowing grief to be part of their journey, they can create a meaningful legacy of love and resilience.

In this episode of ONE BROKEN LIFE, John Stroup talks with Zach. Zach seems like an average smart guy, and at a glance you would never know that he has an addictive background. Starting around 19 or 20 years old, Zach started heavily drinking. Without having a father figure in his life to serve as a good example, he allowed his resentment towards his own father to be an excuse to spiral out of control. He tried cocaine for the first time at 24. At the age of 26, Zach found himself homeless, without anything. God brought Zach to Freeway Ministries, and God used his act of faith to drastically change his life. Listen and be encouraged as you listen to Zach's story of redemption.
