PLEASURE, shaking her delights in her hands, cries, "Come over with me!" MAMMON, clinking his bags of gold, cries, "Come over with me!" AMBITION, pointing to the hazy mountaintop, and her coveted palace gleaming in the sun, cries, "Come over with me!" The day will come when these things will yield no pleasure; when they shall be seen in their true light, as the empty baubles of an hour! Oh, what though you may have all that now caters to the pride of life . . .  affluence,   prosperity,  success in business, gaining the whole world?Are you imperiling, or impoverishing, your immortal soul? But Barzillai answered the king: "How many more years will I live, that I should go up to Jerusalem with the king?" 2 Samuel 19:34What a solemn question for us all, amid the daily occurring proofs of our frailty and mortality. Oh, what a motto to continually consider, amid the wear and tear of life!Young man, with the flash of young hope in your eye; life extending in an interminable vista before you--ever pause on the enchanted highway, and put the solemn question to yourself: "How many more years will I live?"Man of business, in availing yourself of new openings in trade, accepting new responsibilities and concerns, involving yourself in new entanglements--have you stopped and probed yourself with the question: "How many more years will I live?"Lover of pleasure, plunging into the midst of foolish excitement; the whirl of intoxicating gaiety--have you ever, in returning, jaded, and weary, and worn from the heated ballroom--flung yourself on your pillow, and sunk into a feverish dream, with the question haunting you: "How many more years will I live?"Fruitless

On today's episode, Gaius from Tribunate joins Josiah to talk about Roman history and it's parallels to the present moments. Is the U.S. in a decline like the end of the Roman Republic? Or, perhaps, the end of the Roman Empire? Why are fascists and far right groypers so obsessed with Rome?

Kingdom Living - Matthew 21:18-22: In Matthew 21:18-22, Jesus curses a fig tree - not out of frustration, but as a powerful symbol of fruitless lives. It's a warning against empty religious activity that lacks true transformation. The Christian life isn't just about looking the part; it's about bearing real, lasting fruit. Jesus calls us away from hypocrisy and into a life of faith, trust and persistent prayer. Join us this Sunday at 9 or 11am as we explore this challenging passage together. Bring a friend!

Jesus told a quick story about a certain fruit tree that did not bear any fruit. You will hear this parable in the gospel reading from Luke this coming Sunday.

A Fruitless Journey - Rev Jonathan Imogu by Victory Inheritance Ministries

March 16, 2025 - Brian Mashburn

Well, that was a first! In 13 years of hosting Listening Lyrics, I have never—never—forgotten that I had a guest band scheduled. My plan was set, a themed show ready to roll… until I played my first scheduled set. And just like that, everything changed. Enter Rainbow City Park. This insanely talented indie-rock/dream pop band from Northern California took the studio by storm. Their sound is a beautiful collision of '90s alt-rock nostalgia and modern indie influences like Phoebe Bridgers, Diiv, and Pinegrove. Hailing from Sacramento, Davis, and San Francisco, they bring a raw, emotional depth to their music that's impossible to ignore. What started as an unexpected shift turned into an incredible interview, diving deep into their latest EP, Fruitless—a collection of five sonically diverse, thought-provoking tracks. And let me tell you, if you're feeling sluggish and need an adrenaline rush straight to your ears, crank up the title track, "Fruitless." You won't regret it. Keep an eye on their website because Rainbow City Park is about to take the West Coast by storm. You're going to want to be there for the ride.

So often we reduce Job down to a book about suffering, but we miss the deeper theodicy. Theodicy is dealing with the issue of a just God and suffering in this world. Job is a book about God showing he will triumph over Satan, and addressing the issue of theodicy. The seed of the woman will be crushed. Job, the main actor in this historic story, is put forth as a champion. Job is in line with the counselors that the righteous receive blessing while the wicked receive punishment. Job has to wrestle with this self-righteous view. Job comes to know God and eventually puts his hand over his mouth after knowing that the ways of God are more complex than the box man builds around God. This theme is echoed in Christ's response to the question of the Siloam tower. Here humans died, the setting seems to be that the Galileans probably deserved it, but Christ calls all people to repentance, emphasizing that righteousness is not determined by outward circumstances but by one's hearing Christ's words. Suffering is complex, and the study of suffering in light of a just God is even more complex. Christ further illustrates this point through the parable of the barren tree. The tree, despite receiving care and nourishment, fails to bear fruit, symbolizing those who hear the gospel but remain unrepentant. They are not hearers of God's word, but merely performers. Just as the vineyard owner delays judgment to give the tree one more chance, God's patience allows time for people to repent, reorient their mindset, and humbly submit to Christ. Christ echoes the words of John the Baptizer that the axe is at the root, so the time to repent, hear Christ's call, and consciously be oriented towards Christ's kingdom is right now. Job's story fits this broader biblical narrative by challenging simplistic views of divine justice. Job's friends assume that there is a direct cause-and-effect relationship between righteousness and suffering, but Christ is making the case that God's ways are more intricate and complicated than the boxes we place around God. Christ's point is that suffering should not lead to self-righteous vindication, but to humble self-examination that leads one to conform to Christ's kingdom, and discern Christ's ways. Our role is to remain faithful by discerning what is pleasing unto the Lord, conform to the Spirit's proddings, and humbly submit to God's will as sojourners in this world.

There will be much analysis and innumerable postmortems of what Kamala Harris and her campaign got wrong about the electorate this election.Already, the trends are becoming clear: She failed to reach Black and Latino men, who flocked to Donald Trump this cycle. She underperformed in cities, typically Democratic strongholds. And she even lagged among younger voters vital to her party's present and future.What's behind this dismal showing? One explanation is Harris's inability to put forth a distinct agenda that would appeal to disaffected Democrats. Instead, she held steady to the policies of President Joe Biden, despite general voter dissatisfaction and anxiety about the economy and the direction of the country.“We see Democrats over and over turning to courting this mythical moderate voter,” says senior politics reporter Akela Lacy on this week's episode of The Intercept Briefing. “We also see a big failure to account for the rightward shift among young people and figure out how to give young voters a reason to support the Democratic Party.”Listen to understand what Intercept reporters were hearing at the polls in Georgia and Pennsylvania this week.
