Wawas have been closing all around Philly for the past couple of years. Now Sheetz wants a piece of their pie. Why are Wawas shutting down stores in Philly proper? Has the quality of their hoagie gone downhill, or are we just getting older? Why are some Wawa stores bonkers, and others a place where everyone knows your name? And why, in the event of an apocalypse, would the first thing we say be: “Damn, I can't go to Wawa”? Host Trenae Nuri reviews that and other existential Wawa questions with Philly Voice senior writer Michael Tanenbaum.  Our newsletter has Philly news & events in your inbox every weekday morning.

Paul left no doubt regarding the seriousness of his letter by immediately following his greeting with a pointed rebuke. There was no "catching up" with the Galatian believers or gradual transition into the reason for penning this correspondence. No, he was writing with great concern and a compelling sense of urgency, having learned that they were already moving away from the gospel he had only recently brought to them. And to move away from his gospel was to forsake the God who had called them and to whom they had responded in faith.

The Prophet Jeremiah was instructed to put aside normal family and social norms in order for the people of his day to appreciate what would happen to society when God's judgement would fall upon them.

Join me for a humble look at a psalm that was very important to Jesus.  He quoted it. He quoted it at His most difficult moment, twice.It starts with a feeling (forsakenness) and ends with a fact (it is finished). In between, we'll see whether the Father leans in or out.  Subscribe to the Youtube channel here:

by Elder Chris McCool, Pastor (preached on December 7, 2025) In the chapters leading up to this final chapter of Nehemiah, we have seen how the fervor of revival overtook the Jews that had returned to Jerusalem. Not only did they rededicate themselves to the Law and the work of the Temple, but they promised...

Learn the five things we are not to forsake in God's house

30/11/2025 Gospel Sermon on: Luke 14 : 25 - 35 25 Now great multitudes went with Him. And He turned and said to them, 26 "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. 27 And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple. 28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it-- 29 lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, "This man began to build and was not able to finish.' 31 Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32 Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace. 33 So likewise, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has cannot be My disciple. 34 "Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? 35 It is neither fit for the land nor for the dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!" Glory be to God forever.

Join Dr. Edith Davis as she continues her critical discussion on unity in the body of Christ, tackling the challenge of a diverse population, numerous denominations, and internal conflict. God is preparing His Church, His bride, for His return—a Church purified, "without spot, without wrinkle, without blemish." This process, she explains, requires the Church to emulate the first-century believers: becoming unified and single-minded through the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Dr. Davis shares personal experiences and powerful biblical examples to illustrate the necessary steps for transformation. The keys to becoming unified and focused include: -- Embracing the Command to Love: While "sheep bite" and inflict wounds, we are commanded to love one another, even those who hurt us. -- Refusing to Be Offended: Being offended or taking up the offense of others is a blocker that hinders God's flow through His human vessels. -- Maintaining Single-Minded Focus: Like Mary, the sister of Lazarus, we must sit at Jesus's feet and remain focused on Him, not scattered like Martha. -- Forsaking the Past: Like Ruth, we must be willing to leave behind our old culture, gods, and life to follow the Lord completely. -- Prioritizing God's Presence over Kingdom: Like King David, who valued God's presence above his kingdom, our greatest desire must be for the Lord Himself.

As we wrap up our "Essentials" series, we tackle a subject that tends to be tough for many to hear. How generosity is essential to our growth as Christians. The truth is that living a generous life helps us to know God better and trust Him more. God was generous with us and gave His Son as a gift, so, we should be inspired to be generous as well. Inviting God into your finances helps us to see where we are at and how to take our next step forward from there. Forsaking the "consumption assumption", we prepare our hearts to always ask where our resources need to go, each time they touch our hands. And a heart of generosity helps us to love God and love others. The ultimate truth this week is that generosity is essential to maturing in Christ. - Key Verses // John 3:16, 2 Corinthians 8:7, 2 Corinthians 9:7 - For Sermon Notes, the Connect Card, and our other online resources: https://linktr.ee/Celebrationchurchlive

Pastor Zack Flipse preaches from Genesis 7, “Forsaking the World.” —————————— More from […]

Ezra 10 | Ezra gives us a beautiful picture of what happens as God revives and restores his people.  Though beautiful, there is brokenness that happens in the beauty.  One of the marks of revival is the confession and forsaking of sin. Ezra 10 gives us a powerful picture of what it looks like to allow the mourning of sin to lead to the confessing and forsaking of sin.  As we see our sin for what it is, take heart, we will see our Savior for who he is as well.

Not Forsaking The Assembly with Wesley Hazel

In this episode, Lindsey Maestas tackles the outrage and confusion surrounding Charlie Kirk's death with a bold Christian perspective.  Why casual Christianity is no longer acceptable — lukewarm faith won't survive in a world that mocks conviction. Why celebrating murder is pure evil — and how Christians must reject a culture that cheers for death. The weaponization of memory & “martyr” narratives — how both sides twist a man's life and death for political gain. The silencing of dissent and free discourse — why cancel culture threatens both faith and freedom. God's uncompromising view on murder — the sanctity of life and the danger of playing judge. God's call to radical love over destructive division — how believers can be peacemakers in a fractured, hostile world. This is a wake-up call for Christians who are tired of surface-level faith and cultural compromise. With biblical truth and real talk on politics and discipleship, Lindsey calls us higher: to boldness, holiness, and unity in a world that's tearing itself apart.

WHEN a psalm is quoted helps us understand its original intent and purpose. Of note, Ps. 22 is quoted twice when Jesus was slowly being suffocated on the cross.  We'd probably benefit by giving it our attention. If you were near death, what psalm would you quote?Is the "why have you forsaken me" psalm actually about forsaking? Probably not. Stay with me on this one...https://youtu.be/kUDIy-4iLVU

As Christians, we are never more like Jesus than when we forgive with the same grace that He forgave us. In this episode of CPXL we see a story of Sanctification. As Philemon must wrestle with Paul's letter to accept Onesimus not as a slave, but a brother in Christ. Forsaking his rights as a citizen and accepting the call to give grace in the Kingdom of God.

Scripture Reading and Introduction 2 Corinthians 11:16-33 read. Paul's boasting not of the Lord, but foolishly. Details of Paul's suffering: stripes, imprisonment, shipwrecks, perils, weariness, hunger, and concern for the churches. Paul's escape from Damascus. Thankfulness for the opportunity to be present and receive what the Lord has to offer. Acknowledging uncertainty about the direction of the message but trusting in the Lord's guidance. The Song: "Sweet Things Out of Dark Places" A song has been implanted in the soul for about a month. The song's message is particularly relevant given the current trials and tribulations. The song's lyrics: Wanting to know Him better and walk closer. Willingness to suffer for a clearer vision in the valley. Sweet things and heavenly light emerging from dark places. A sweeter touch and deeper love from Him. Brokenness leading to precious words and a revelation of God's glory. The sweetness of darkness when the Father is near. Apostle Paul as an Example Paul as an example of someone in darkness who gloried in his infirmities. Dark places are common, with trials and heartaches affecting many. Comfort in knowing that darkness is temporary and light will come through Jesus Christ. Excitement to share what the Lord has revealed. Dark valleys as a recurring experience. The tendency to let challenges slow down or derail progress. Sweetness emerging from dark places. Recalling the darkness before finding Jesus Christ. Blindness and a misguided pursuit of worldly pleasures. Realization of being disliked by others due to negative behaviors. Sweetness found in a calling from God. A calling once abandoned for two years. The joy and fulfillment experienced when fulfilling that calling. Feeling God's presence and glory while serving Him. Light replacing darkness. Paul's intelligence and upbringing, yet not glorying in himself. Paul's apostleship not of man but by Jesus Christ and God. Galatians 1:1 referenced. Contrast with the replacement of Judas through casting lots. Caution against boasting in what God is doing in one's life. Gratitude for God's grace and what He has done. Boasting only in Jesus Christ and His work. Sweetness will come if one sticks to it. Paul's perilous situations and distress, yet glorying in infirmities. Glorying in Infirmities A personal anecdote about waking up to a car that wouldn't start. Initial reaction of worry and frustration. Failure to glory in infirmities. Even in darkness, God provides a way for light to shine. Paul's suffering: whippings, beatings, shipwrecks, and betrayal. Choosing to glory in infirmities and taking pleasure in knowing Jesus Christ is present. Not bragging about success. Paul preached to kings. Paul started about 20 churches. Paul did not want credit for those things. Paul wrote 13 books of the Bible. Paul did not boast about writing 13 books. Paul preached for around 30 years. Paul saw a vision of the third heaven. Paul did not boast about the vision. Inability to thank God for bad things happening. Admitting the difficulty of willingly enduring suffering. The problem of thinking one shouldn't have to deal with suffering. Paul as second only to Jesus Christ in contributions to the Christian community. Paul confronted Peter for not associating with Gentiles. Philippians 3:7-14 Philippians 3:7-14 referenced. Counting past gains as loss for Christ. Suffering the loss of all things to win Christ. Counting worldly things as dung. Seeking righteousness through faith in Christ. Knowing Him and the power of His resurrection. Fellowship of His sufferings. Pressing toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Forsaking the world. Not advocating quitting one's job but providing for oneself.

Philippians 3:1-11: Forsaking all else for the sake of Christ - Noel Kenny by Christ City Church Dublin

Tony continues in his series The Toxic Soul and in this sermon he leads us to think about sin and how poisonous it is to the soul. It would seem we forget just how lethal sin is and in this sermon we are reminded that when we sin we forsake God, try to make life work on our own, are deceived, and harden our heart. No one gets away with sinning.

Send us a text In this episode, we study through the 2nd chapter of Proverbs, and the dangers of forsaking wisdom. We discuss many important things found within this powerful chapter Solomon wrote. To forsake wisdom is to be a fool, or at least to act like one. There is much to be learned in life, and there is a wealth of information to gain here. There is a great need within all of us for Wisdom and Discretion, and we can find that in the Lord. We highly encourage you to study God's Word with us today!

As an advisor to Henry VIII and ambassador to France and Italy, poet Thomas Wyatt was something of a professional court-surfer, practiced in riding the peaks and troughs of royal favor. Such were his verbal and diplomatic gifts that, though twice accused of and imprisoned for treason, he was twice released. His poetry reflects all the intrigue, paranoia, airlessness, and downright cruelty of the Tudor Court, where a misplaced word or an ill-timed look might see you not just out of favor, but a head shorter. In two of his most celebrated poems—which might draw upon the affair he might have had with Anne Boleyn—certainty is suspect, irony thick, allegiance changeable, and hunters apt to find they've become the hunted. Wes & Erin discuss Thomas Wyatt's “Whoso List to Hunt” and “They Flee from Me.” Get more at subtextpodcast.com.
