Joy in the Biblical context is not an emotion.  Joy is an attitude of the heart.  It is not necessarily based on something positive happening.  Joy is something that lasts; happiness is temporary.  When happiness fades away, joy remains.  Joy is something God deposits into us through the Holy Spirit.  Main Points:1. In these verses, Jesus actually gives us the key to living our lives with joy. We also see that God intends that His joy would remain in us and that our joy may be full. Imagine being full of joy! How would that change your life? Your outlook? Your attitude and your words? Being full of joy would change a lot of things in our lives.2. But here is the key. It's found in “abiding with Jesus.” What does that mean? It means living your life in a close relationship with Christ. It's daily spending time with him. Pursuing a close and intimate relationship with God daily. The result of this relationship with God is a joy that only He can give.3. If you find yourself living a joyless life, recognize that it can change today. Begin pursuing more of God. Press into God. Seek Him. Abide in Him. His joy will be yours.Today's Scripture Verses:John 15:9-11 - “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.  “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.”Psalm 16:11 - "You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

More than Hype ReCreate Church | Michael Shockley | September 14, 2025 1 John Series, Part 1: More than Hype 1 John 1:1-4 ---------- EPISODE SUMMARY In the opening message of a new series on 1 John, Michael Shockley introduces us to the incredible journey of John the Apostle - from a barefoot boy splashing in the Sea of Galilee to the last living eyewitness of Jesus Christ. Through the colorful backstory of "Johannan" (John's Aramaic name), discover how a hot-tempered fisherman's son became known as the "Apostle of Love." This message establishes that our faith isn't based on hype, legend, or secondhand stories, but on the real, tangible experiences of people who lived with Jesus daily for three years. John's opening verses in his first epistle emphasize what he personally heard, saw, looked upon, and touched - making the case that the Gospel is more than hype, more than history, but the very Life of Jesus living in believers today. Core Message: The Gospel is more than hype, more than history — it's The Life of Jesus in us. ---------- KEY TOPICS COVERED The Story of John the Apostle - Born as "Johannan" in Bethsaida, son of Zebedee and Salome - Growing up as a fisherman with calloused hands and stormy nights - Transformation through John the Baptist's preaching and baptism The Call to Follow Jesus - John the Baptist pointing to Jesus as "the Lamb of God" - The moment John's spiritual compass found "true North" - Jesus choosing both John and James as disciples despite their rough edges - The nickname "Boanerges" (Sons of Thunder) for their fiery tempers - Jesus' correction when they wanted to call down fire on Samaritans John's Special Relationship with Jesus - Being part of the inner circle with Peter and James - Witnessing the Transfiguration and Jesus' glory shining like the sun - Sitting beside Jesus at the Last Supper, asking bold questions - Being the only disciple to stand at the foot of the Cross - Receiving the personal mission to care for Mary, Jesus' mother From Death to Resurrection - John's heartbreak at Jesus' death, not understanding the promise of resurrection - Sprinting to the empty tomb on Easter morning - Seeing and touching the Risen Christ for forty days - Receiving the Great Commission to spread the news worldwide - Becoming "a man on fire for the mission" after Jesus' ascension A Life of Persecution and Ministry - Multiple arrests and beatings for preaching the Gospel - Watching his brother James become the first apostle martyred - All other apostles dying violent deaths for their faith - Moving to Ephesus to father the local churches - Writing the Gospel of John to record previously untold stories Exile and Final Years - Surviving execution by boiling oil through divine protection - Exile to the rocky island of Patmos for his continued witness - Receiving and recording the visions that became the Book of Revelation - Returning to Ephesus in frail old age but with powerful words - Writing three epistles recognized as Holy Spirit-breathed truth The Credibility of the New Testament - Written by eyewitnesses and those who interviewed eyewitnesses - Composed within decades of the actual events, not centuries later - Authors gained no earthly advantage - only persecution and death - Hundreds of people could have disputed fabricated details - The ultimate test: would you die for something you knew was false? The Reality of Jesus as "The Word of Life" - John's emphasis on tangible, physical experience with Jesus - Not debating an idea but introducing a Person he knew intimately - God becoming physical reality because humanity couldn't reach God - The Life and Salvation of Jesus "manifested" - made real and obvious - Jesus putting on humanity, sandals, and walking dusty roads The Purpose of John's Writing - To share what he literally saw and heard with his own senses - To bring others into fellowship with Jesus and the family of believers - To continue the declaration started by all the apostles - To help people connect with Jesus and avoid doing life alone - That readers' "joy may be full" - complete joy found in Jesus Modern Eyewitnesses and Testimonies - We may not have literally seen Jesus like John did - But we can testify to His miracles and power in our lives today - Brokenness made whole, addiction overcome, selfishness transformed - Bitterness replaced with forgiveness, anxiety with unexplainable peace - The biggest miracle: people coming out of darkness into Light Understanding Joy That Is Full - Joy isn't dependent on pleasant circumstances or material possessions - People with easier lives often complain more than those with struggles - Family and good things bring limited joy that can be broken - True joy cannot depend on what we have or what happens - Fullness of joy CAN be found in fellowship with Jesus ---------- MEMORABLE QUOTES "The Gospel is more than hype, more than history — it's The Life of Jesus in us." "The compass needle found true North." "Jesus wasn't like any Rabbi Johanan had ever known." "The Kingdom of God would be built with love, not vengeance." "Only the one who did not run from death escaped death." "The Son of Thunder became the Apostle of Love." "He outran Peter to the tomb, outlived all the others, and outlasted exile to bring you this message." "Joy cannot depend on what we have or what happens. It depends on Who Jesus Is." "Just like a healthy plant drops seeds that are able to sprout and grow new plants, a healthy believer spreads the seed of The Good News." "I have seen Jesus. I have heard Him. I have touched Him. And it changed me forever." ---------- BIBLICAL FOUNDATION - Primary Text: 1 John 1:1-4 - Key Theme: Eyewitness testimony to the reality of Jesus Christ - Historical Context: John writing as the last living apostle - Emphasis: Physical, tangible experience with Jesus ("heard," "seen," "looked upon," "handled") - Purpose Statement: Fellowship with God and complete joy in believers - Connection: The Word of Life manifested in human form ---------- PRACTICAL APPLICATION If You Question Whether Jesus Really Existed: - Consider the historical evidence from multiple eyewitness accounts - Remember these weren't legends written centuries later - The apostles gained nothing earthly and died for their testimony - Ask yourself: would you die for something you knew was false? - Examine the transformation in the lives of the eyewitnesses If You Feel Like Your Faith Is Just Ideas or Rules: - Understand that Christianity is relationship with a Person, not a system - Know that Jesus became physically present because we couldn't reach God - Remember that faith is about knowing Jesus personally, not just knowing about Him - Allow the reality of who Jesus is to transform your daily experience - Let His life live in you rather than trying to follow external rules If You Feel Alone in Your Spiritual Journey: - Recognize that fellowship is a core purpose of John's message - Church isn't just a Sunday event but a family of believers - Connect with people who know your name and walk with you through struggles - Don't try to do life alone - God designed us for community - Find or create spaces where genuine spiritual fellowship can happen If Your Joy Feels Incomplete: - Understand that joy doesn't depend on pleasant circumstances - Remember that even good things like family have limitations - Don't base joy on what you have or what happens to you - Ground your joy in who Jesus is rather than temporary things - Seek the fullness of joy that comes through fellowship with Jesus If You Haven't Shared Your Faith Recently: - Ask yourself why you don't feel a nudge to share what you've experienced - Remember that healthy believers naturally spread the Good News - Consider what Jesus has done in your life that others need to hear - Be an eyewitness to His power and miracles in your own experience - Share your story of transformation and hope with others ---------- THE ULTIMATE INVITATION Maybe you've always thought of Jesus as just a historical figure, a good teacher, or even religious hype. But John's testimony calls us to something far greater - a personal encounter with the Living Christ. The same Jesus who walked dusty roads, ate with tax collectors, calmed storms, and rose from the dead is available to you today. Not as an idea to understand, but as a Person to know. Not as history to study, but as Life to experience. The little boy who splashed in Galilee became an old man who could say, "I have seen Jesus, heard Him, touched Him, and it changed me forever." Today, Jesus offers you the same life-changing encounter. Will you let His life live in you? ---------- CONNECT WITH RECREATE CHURCH - Website: recreatechurch.org - Support the Ministry: Give through the Tithe.ly app or offering boxes ---------- Have you moved beyond seeing Jesus as just a historical figure or religious concept to experiencing Him as a living Person?

In this episode of It's About to Go Down!, Marc and Cathey are joined by Elizabeth Rodriguez-Perez—an educator, social worker, and unapologetic advocate for humanizing systems and honoring full identities. Together, they explore what it means to show up whole—in institutions that often ask people to fragment themselves—and how stories, space, and social work can become tools for collective liberation. From growing up in the Bronx to navigating higher education, Elizabeth shares her journey of becoming someone who questions, reframes, and reclaims power for herself and her community. This episode is a masterclass in courage, self-definition, and the quiet strength of choosing to live your story out loud.

In this episode, Sam calls out one of the biggest lies women are fed about motherhood + entrepreneurship: that exhaustion, sacrifice, and seriousness are required to be a ‘good mom' and ‘successful biz owner'. Instead, she flips the script and reminds us that fun is fuel. Play, pleasure, and joy aren't optional extras—they are what keep us grounded, magnetic, and lit up in every area of life. Through raw confessions, cultural myth-busting, and practical invitations, Sam shows how reclaiming fun isn't selfish—it's powerful. Because a mother who is alive, radiant, and in her pleasure is a mother who models expansion for her family and creates overflow in her own life. Key Takeaways: Fun isn't frivolous—it's your power source. Pleasure regulates your nervous system and expands your energy. Kids learn joy, resilience, and aliveness by watching you play. You don't have to choose between motherhood and multidimensionality—you get to have both. Three simple ways to bring more play + pleasure into your life right now.

Pamela Jones - Escaping a Deadly Polygamous CultDIVORCED: FLDS Cults TW: Brief mention of CSA and child abuse in this episodeIn 1965, PAMELA JONES was born in Los Molinos, Mexico, into a polygamous Mormon cult known as The Church of the Firstborn of the Fullness of Time. As the eldest daughter of 13 children, she left school at age 11 to care for her younger siblings in a remote desert compound without electricity or running water. Married at 15, Pamela found herself trapped at Zion's Camp, an even more oppressive cult offshoot, with a husband more controlling and manipulative than her abusive father. At age 34, after 17 pregnancies and 9 children, Pamela and her kids escaped to the United States. With no resources and less than a fifth-grade education, she found work cleaning houses, determined to build a new life for her family.Today Pamela and her sister Vera, also a cult survivor, host the podcast Wicked Confessions Uncensored, exploring the hidden world of polygamous cults, where pretenses of holiness mask shocking truths.

Fullness of joy is found in God

The reason we focus so much on the Aeons of the Fullness and Logos in particular here at Gnostic Insights is because the Pleroma of any living creature is the sum total of the Pleroma of the Demiurge—our material or hylic part that makes up our physical bodies—and the Pleroma of Logos after his return to the Fullness, when he prayed alongside the Aeons to bring life to the deficiency he had caused. “The Logos turned to another opinion and another thought. Having turned away from evil, he turned toward the good things. Following the conversion came the thought of the things which exist and the prayer for the one who converted himself to the good. The one who is in the Pleroma was what he first prayed to and remembered [that is the One Self, his fractal of the Son]; then (he remembered) his brothers individually and (yet) always with one another [which is to say, each individual Aeon in its place and position in the Pleroma of the Fullness]; then all of them together [the Totality of the Fullness as a single Pleroma]; but before all of them, the Father [the originating source from which all consciousness flows]. The prayer of the agreement [among these nested fractal consciousnesses] was a help for him in his own return and (in that of) the Totality, for a cause of his remembering those who have existed from the first was his being remembered. This is the thought which calls out from afar, bringing him back.”

Follow Everyday Prayers @MillionPrayingMomsA Prayer for the Fullness of Joy Have you ever felt like joy slips through your fingers—here for a moment and gone the next? In today’s episode, Nicolet Bell helps us reflect on what it means to live in the fullness of joy that Jesus promises, not just glimpses of it.Rather than manufacturing joy through circumstances or effort, Jesus invites us to step into His presence where steadfast joy is found. Reference: John 15:11 Prayer: Jesus, please help us to stop chasing rays of sunshine, and to step out into the full light of your presence. Help us not to seek joy in our circumstances, but in your presence. Help us to teach our kids to do the same. Thank you for your steadfast and complete joy.

After watching What Does Kālī Want From You? | The Yoga of Grief & Fullness, Who Should Worship Kālī? | Dakṣiṇa Kālī vs Smaśāna Kālī and What Do You Need To Start Worshipping Kālī & Practicing Tantra? you might be starting to get the impression that Kālī pūjā and sādhana is (as Sri Ramakrishna himself put it) no joke! As such, to stay safe and to practice in a meaningful, gradual and integrated way, we have to discuss some foundations. After all, Mother Kālī is always standing on Śiva: isn't this a clue for us? To practice Kālī sādhanā, we should become like Śiva, that is to say, we should build our Kālī practice on top of some firm and stable Śaiva foundations! As such, in this class, which is the culmination of this year's śrāvana festivities, O walk you through more or less the entirety of śiva pūjā & sādhana with a special emphasis on the foundational mantras of our Tāntrik tradition, known as the pañca-Brahmā mantras from the Taittirīyāranyaka from Yajur Veda, the foundational Veda for Śaivism & Tantra: sadyojātaṁ prapadyāmi sadyojātāya vai namo namaḥbhave bhave nāti bhave bhavasva māṁ bhavodbhavāya namaḥI take refuge in the ever-fresh (newly born) Śiva, salutations again and again!

Naomi's Return to Bethlehem Naomi returns to Bethlehem after hearing that the famine is over. She had left Bethlehem during the famine, thinking they would fare better elsewhere. She realizes that leaving God was a mistake that cost her dearly. The townspeople recognize her and ask, "Is this Naomi?" Naomi asks them to call her Mara, meaning bitter, instead of Naomi, meaning pleasant and delightful. She feels that the Lord has dealt very bitterly with her. Grace on the Road Back Home Even when one thinks they have lost everything, God sees the choice to return home and helps on the journey. Naomi says she "went out full, but he hath brought me back again empty." There is grace on the road back to full. Many people feel they have gone too far from God to ever feel His presence again. When one chooses to head back toward God, He helps along the way. God was helping Naomi even before she left Moab. The very day she decided to return home, God began blessing her again. Help on the Journey Naomi decides to return home and tells her daughters-in-law to go back to their families. Orpah returns, but Ruth refuses to leave Naomi. God gave Naomi a helper in Ruth, who loved her more than seven sons. Naomi didn't realize that Ruth would be instrumental in bringing her back to fullness. Everyone needs help, and God provides it. God put "stick to it" in Ruth, who was determined to stay with Naomi. God's Orchestration Naomi is an elderly woman, beaten down by the loss of her husband and sons. She only has Ruth, a Moabite widow, with her. No upstanding Jewish man would consider marrying a Moabite. God moves for those who decide to return to fullness. Even if one feels half full, God wants them completely full of Him. While the choice to return is personal, it is God who ultimately brings one home. There is a drawing in the heart to return to God. The Holy Ghost never stops prompting one to return home. God doesn't forsake His own and brings them back. Even if one arrives empty, God is already helping and working in their path. Naomi acknowledges that God brought her back. Emptiness and Filling Sometimes God has to empty things in order to fill them again. Like emptying water from a fuel tank before adding good octane. God removes what isn't supposed to be there to prepare for filling. Naomi couldn't see that Ruth was the best helper she could have. The journey from Moab to Bethlehem is treacherous, about 50-60 miles, taking 7-10 days. Ruth and Naomi had to choose every day to continue the journey. God helps when one heads back home. God had to empty Naomi to fill her up for His glory. The Road to Fullness The journey back to fullness is orchestrated by God. Naomi was still a landowner but had no husband or sons, so she had to sell. As a backslider, one never forgets the day they gained ownership of something from God. Ruth goes to glean in the fields and happens to end up in Boaz's field. There are no coincidences when trying to get back to fullness. God orchestrates the needs for one to be full. Boaz arrives and notices Ruth. He has heard of her kindness to Naomi and her commitment to the Jehovah God. He tells her to stay in his field and eat and drink with his maids. Ruth asks why Boaz has shown her such grace. When one is on the way back to fullness, they have someone helping them. Boaz instructs his workers to let Ruth glean as much as she wants and to drop extra for her. God wants one to be full again. Heavenly Help Ruth returns with a sack full of grain. She also brings Naomi food from Boaz's table. Naomi asks about the man whose field she was in. When she hears the name Boaz, hope is rekindled in her soul. Hearing the name of Jesus restores hope.

We call the result of the Fall the deficiency, commonly referred to as the material cosmos. Here's the Sethian take on the structure of our cosmos: Yaldabaoth organized everything after the pattern of the first aeons that had come into being, so that he might create everything in an incorruptible form. (The Secret Book of John, verse 12) The Tripartite Tractate adds this caution to the construction of the cosmos: Those who came into being from the presumptuous thought resemble in fact the Fullnesses of whom they are imitations, though they are phantoms, shadows, and illusions, deprived of reason and light, belonging to this empty thought, being nobody's offspring. (TTT, verse 78) We Second Order Powers were subsequently fruited into this material realm by the will of the Fullness in order to restore the fallen Aeon to the Fullness and bring this material creation to an end. Gnostics say that this material world was constructed by the Demiurge as a fallen imitation of the Paradise that exists on the ethereal plane. We think of this cosmos as being material in contrast to the ethereal nature of the originating consciousness of the Father, Son, and Fullness of God. But, as my brother needs to remind me from time to time, there is no such thing as matter. Matter itself is an illusion. In other words, there is no dualism.

In this quickie episode, Sam unpacks the toxic programming women face around postpartum bodies—and flips the narrative. We're conditioned to scan for flaws: the stretch marks, the softness, the “baby weight.” But what if instead of asking “What's wrong?” we started asking “What's right?” Sam breaks down how to celebrate the brilliance of a body that just created life, why comparison culture is stealing joy, and how shifting your lens changes everything. Key Takeaways: Culture teaches moms to critique, not celebrate, their bodies. Your body is evidence of creation, not “damage.” Postpartum is transformation—not regression. Choosing to see what's right rewires your relationship with yourself. A simple practice to love and respect your body today.

Last week, we had a profound and poignant discussion on the heart of Kālī sādhana in What Does Kālī Want From You? | The Yoga of Grief & Fullness where we explored what Swami Vivekananda called "The Worship of the Terrible"! Notice that the imagery around Mā Kālī doesn't just focus on terror, chaos and death in an amorphous or abstract way; it presents some very concrete motifs of intoxication, arousal and madness. The idea that Mā dwells in the jungles or in the cremation grounds (i.e in a realm of the chaotic unknown beyond all law, reason and order, perhaps a symbol for the wild and untrammeled Subconscious) surrounded by bloodthirsty female spirits (dākinīs), ghosts and jackals (perhaps symbols for the dark, violent and often repressed dimensions of the human psyche) is very important and deserving of a courageous, careful, considered, serious and earnest inquiry. What does all of this mean? And why are such (to some people) disturbing images so insisted upon when it comes to Mā Kālī's iconography? I want to discuss some of this tonight, playing off some ideas we first encountered in the Why Is Kālī Drunk? & Mā Kālī's Non Dual Aspect & Tantrik Sādhanās to Attain Itlectures. And so at tonight's 7pm PST zoom satsangh, I want to take up this inquiry with you in the context of a discussion on the different shades of insanity, i.e discerning between the fun kind that we saw in Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda vs. the not-so-fun and often, debilitating kind that can sometimes come about as a result of ungrounded, unsupervised śakti sādhana like we did in the Why is Kālī Crazy? lecture to answer these questions:Is there a difference between  Dakṣiṇa Kālī and Smaśāna Kālī?Is one for householders and the other for ascetics?What will happen if I start worshipping the former, and what if I worship the latter? Etc. Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

Keenan Clark shares how the spiritual discipline of fasting transformed his life, with insights from his book “Change the World on an Empty Stomach.” (J2709)

Grace For Grace - Growth Mindset For Kids - “Receive of His Fullness : Doctrine and Covenants 93”When you climb up a ladder,” Joseph Smith taught, “you must begin at the bottom, and ascend step by step, until you arrive at the top; and so it is with the principles of the gospel—you must begin with the first, and go on until you learn all the principles of exaltation” (⁠Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith [2007], 268⁠).Sometimes that ladder of exaltation seems impossibly high, but we were born to climb to the top with the Savior's constant help. Whatever limitations we may see in ourselves, Heavenly Father and His Son see something glorious in us, something godlike. Just as Jesus Christ “was in the beginning with the Father,” so “ye were also” (⁠Doctrine and Covenants 93:21, 23⁠). Just as He “continued from grace to grace, until he received a fulness,” so also “you shall receive grace for grace” (⁠verses 13, 20⁠). The restored gospel teaches about the true nature of God, and so it also teaches about your true nature and destiny. You are a literal child of God with the potential to “in due time receive of his fulness”.This week we discuss the scriptures in doctrine and covenants 93, how Jesus Christ grew grace to grace, we can too. We liken this to the ladder that Joseph smith taught about. We also play some fun growth mindset games.

Pastor Troy Marshall tells us about how God's intent for creating us was to live through us and show people His will. Everything He has, we have! we have His Spirit without measure or limitation. The Fullness of God and His presence is who He is. We can't get soullessly addicted to just His character. We can't enter into His presence with worship, we enter it with praise! We can't hide in our worship. God has four main Ark-a -types: King, Lover, Warrior and Problem Solver. We can't be addicted to just one! We have to love the prudence and wisdom of God just like we love His presence! God wants to add more dimensions to us so we can manifest more at different levels. When we are in an identity crisis, it only matters what God says we are. Who does God say you are? what is God currently speaking to you about? We have to ask Him this. We have to pray for The Fullness of God!

Sefer Yetzirah: The Tension of Absence & Fullness. A Tzimtzum that is Not Real (Lec. 8

2 Samuel 23 In this sermon, we explore what it means to “fight the good fight of faith,” not against people, but against the spiritual forces of evil, pursuing the fullness of God in our lives. Drawing from 2 Samuel 23:8-12, we see how David's mighty men exemplified tenacity, perseverance, and loyalty—even in private, unseen moments—and how these qualities are essential for spiritual growth and impact. The message challenges us to remain steadfast in trials, resist distraction, and unite as a community, trusting that God empowers us to overcome and bring revival, influence our generation, and take hold of the abundant promises of His kingdom.

Pastor Stephen Brucker shares from Ephesians 6:21-24

Pastor Dru highlights the Transfiguration where Jesus' divine glory shines, fulfilling the Law and the Prophets, and points to his suffering, resurrection, and the indwelling presence of God in believers. He calls us to listen to Jesus and live from his radiance.

What should we expect when the Spirit comes? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Acts 8:14–17 to show the empowering experience of receiving the Spirit.

In this episode, Sam invites listeners into a practice inspired by her women's circle: embracing the beauty of the present moment. She guides through releasing the “shoulds” that create pressure and self-judgment, shifting into deep gratitude for what is here, and reclaiming bragging and desire as powerful feminine practices. Key Takeaways: Releasing the weight of “should” creates space for authenticity. Gratitude shifts energy and rewires the nervous system. Bragging, desire, and gratitude are radical reclamations for women. The power of presence lies in savoring the beauty of the now.

On the last Monday of śrāvana is an especially sacred day for contemplating the Absolute because it is a culmination four or six weeks of very intense Sādhanā (spiritual practice). As such, as a celebration and consummation, I'd like to discuss something quite poignant: the yoga of grief & fullness.I want to compare some transcendalist schools of Advaita to the Tāntrik approach which emphasizes fullness, especially with regard the full spectrum of flavors (rasa) that arise in Consciousness! We'll offer some a touching and telling stories of Lord Śiva's grief, Matsyendranātha's fall, and the pain and grief of Sarada Devi, Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda!Often I feel there can be nothing more important than presenting this profoundly humanizing portraits of our heroes because rather than subtracting from their spirituality , they only add to it. Essentially, I want to talk about an all embracing kind of spirituality that leaves no experience unexplored, no facet untasted: in short, the Advaita of Kālī!. Naturally, we'll explore the 5 phases of the 12 Krama deities too and Abhinava Gupta's nava-rasa theory to point to the philosophical complexity and poetry of this position!Many of you will find this lecture someone reminiscent of some our community favorites like: 1. Mā Kāli's Bowl of Blood | Turning Suffering Into Ecstasy2. Mā Kālī's Non Dual Aspect & Tantrik Sādhanās to Attain It3. What Does Kālī Really Want?4. and most especially How To Succeed At Tantra & The Worship of The TerribleYou'll notice that in a sense, this is the key teaching or rather the uttama-vāda, highest revelation of our Kālī tradition! This talk also contains elements from another one of my favorites: What Makes Art Spiritual? | Kashmir ShaivismAt the end we offer a very refined spiritual practice for transforming all our pain and grief into an experience of aesthetic rapture or poetic delight! On this auspicious Tuesday, on Mā's sacred day, I lay all of these words as so many flowers at your feet, you who are Mā incarnate! Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

Words to Live By: Never Short Sell an Immeasurably More GodEphesians 3:16-21August 17th, 2025—We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word always produces. Isaiah 55:10,11 (NIV) As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, 11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word never fails. Luke 1:37 (NIV) 37 For no word from God will ever fail.” Spoken to Mary on her inquiry, “how can a virgin give birth to a savior?”We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word always sustains. Matthew 4:4 (NIV) 4 ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'” Matthew 4:4 (message) “It takes more than bread to stay alive. It takes a steady stream of words from God's mouth.” Jesus' response to Satan's first temptation in the desert.We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word always frees. John 8:31b-32 (NIV)31b “If you hold to my teaching [words], you are really my disciples. 32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” Jesus' admonition to His disciples.We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word is always fresh. Hebrews 4:12a (NIV) 12 For the word of God is alive and active. We can always trust God's Word because…God's Word never expires. Mt 24:35 (NIV) 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. There isn't anything you can read that will add more life to your life than the Bible! 6 words to live by Never short sell an immeasurably more God.Never underestimate the power of a simple prayer offered on behalf of a complex situation.Never under value the implications/impact of obedience.Never be afraid of the repercussions of telling the truth in love. One of those repercussions is freedom.When lost or in the dark always ask for more of God. You need Him more than answers, advice or direction.Change always requires change.Ephesians 3:16-21 (NIV) 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. 20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.Prayer Ask #1: Supernatural Strength & Indwelling Presence. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. God is neither poor or stingy.Paul is asking God to stop the courage drain and build strength in you from the reservoir of His glorious riches. Christ isn't out there, He's in here. Think less link arms with Christ and more live out the power of Christ.Prayer Ask #1: Supernatural Strength & Indwelling Presence. Prayer Ask #2 To Be Filled Up with the Fullness with God. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. God's love is wide enough, long enough and deep enough to heal all of our holes and fill up all of our emptiness. The core lies Satan feeds us are God is not enough and/or we are not enough. The Truth is God's love is enough to fill us and make us whole! Our lack isn't a match for His riches! Our holes aren't don't overwhelm His love.To know the love of God is both intellectual grasp and experiential knowledge. The components of the intellectual grasp include the following. Sin creates a gap un-crossable by us. Jesus came down to us because we couldn't get up to Him. We don't have the capacity to pay for our own sin. The penalty of sin is death. Jesus died for us because a perfect sacrifice was necessary to pay the penalty of our sin and to expunge our record of sin. Jesus died but He didn't stay dead. Jesus resurrection ended deaths mastery over us. We can live full in Christ through the power of the Holy SpiritPrayer Ask #1: Supernatural Strength & Indwelling Presence. Prayer Ask #2 To Be Filled with the Fullness with God.“What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” A.W. Tozer The knowledge of the Holy: The Attributes of God; Their Meaning in the Christian Life. We have to have a supernatural understanding of who God is to have faith for supernatural outcomes – internal or external.V20. Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.Why did Paul feel such an encouraging and elaborate description of God was necessary? Because… God isn't just an external force, He is also a present, active and partnering internal force. … “at work within us”. What's in front of you isn't a match for the God inside of you. No challenge is a match for God's capacity. God exceeds our expectations (more than we can think or imagine). Don't settle for less or even ask for more, ask for full.We are not the children of a small, limited, ill-informed God. We pray to an immeasurably more God who wants us to experience more of Him and His love than we do right now and who wants to accomplish more in us and through us than we could ever dream. How does this word impact my world in real time? We can be consumed by a challenge or we can be consumed by God but we can't be consumed by both – you have to pick.

Fr. Harry and Fr. Anthony begin their exploration of the many names of the Church found in the New Testament, emphasizing its identity as the Body of Christ and its sacramental fullness in every local parish. They warn of spiritual dangers—wolves among the flock—and reflect on the difference between harmful divisiveness and mere imperfection within the Church, drawing on parables like the wheat and the tares. Their discussion culminates in a beautiful meditation on the Eucharist as the eschatological gathering of the faithful, uniting heaven and earth in the present moment. Enjoy the show!

Whether you're in new motherhood, a breakup, a business pivot, or just feeling like a new version of you is trying to emerge, these are the tools that ground you, elevate you, and remind you that you're not alone.

In this episode: Why the words “I'm in the process of…” can rewire your nervous system and create space for grace How getting ready (yes, even putting on lip gloss) can be a sacred self-love ritual The power of community and mentorship in the most tender seasons of your life Why feeling seen and supported is one of the most healing things you can give yourself A reminder that you matter—even in the messy middle This one's your permission slip to take up space, feel what you're feeling, and anchor into practices that bring you back to yourself.
