We are all faced with many choices on a day to day basis. Some of those decisions have small implications; others have much larger ones. In this episode we discuss how to make decisions and avoid the trap of indecisive paralysis.DISCLAIMER: this episode was recorded on my phone as opposed to the microphone I normally use. As such, the audio quality is slightly lesser than usual (e.g., the siren in the background at one point). I thought that it wasn't too distracting or disruptive, but I still wanted to thank you for your patience!The Sheep Prayer (JD Greear)How I Ascertain the Will of God?

Pastor Matt SprinkleJames 2:14-26Sermon Notes:- It costs something.- We enter the year with a false belief.- Sports teams lose. Stocks crash. Leaders disappoint.- A Faith that doesn't disappoint- 14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.- “Can you be a follower of Jesus and be the same as the people who don't follow Jesus?”- Direction, not intention, determines destination -Andy Stanley- If your faith doesn't move you — it's not alive.- Picture of George Müller (See Email)- 18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder!- And they are terrified.- Abraham's actions proved he really believed- Rahab's actions proved she truly believed.- God Never Fails- Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.- Is it Real?LIFE Group Discussion QuestionsOpener: When you face a defect in your character, how do you feel?1. Read James 2:14-262. Have I ever felt truly broken over my sin and wanted to run from it?3. Do I really understand the gospel — that Jesus died and rose for my sins — and that I can't save myself?4. Did I genuinely turn from my sin, or do I still secretly love and cling to it?5. Has my life actually changed since I believed? Do I live like someone who follows Jesus? Can others see it?6. Do I want to tell others about Jesus, or am I ashamed to bring Him up?7. Do I enjoy being around other believers and worshiping with God's people?
2025晨鐘課－每天，都是新的起點 以歷史智慧滋養生活，點亮2025每一天！ 借鑑過去，活在當下，展望未來！ 粵語廣播網站 (時兆出版社授權錄製) https://soundcloud.com/mediahk Podcast@靈修廣播站 5月25日 禱告的力量 「你們若奉我的名求什麼，我必成就。」 約翰福音 14：14 禱告是上帝讓我們與祂步調一致，並接受祂最寶貴祝福的方法。從《聖經》中可以看到，有些祝福是無論我們是否祈求上帝都會賜下的（太5：45）。但大多數祝福是留給那些用純潔的心祈求的人（箴28：9）。基督就曾強調過這個條件：「你們若奉我的名求什麼，我必成就。」（約14：14） 若論到過完全依靠上帝的生活，喬治．慕勒（George Müller，1805–1898）絕對是優秀的榜樣。他出生在德國，23歲時搬到倫敦，成為一名以猶太族群為主要宣教對象的傳教士。但事情的發展卻不如他所願。1832年5月25日，他搬到了英格蘭的布里斯托，創立了阿什利唐孤兒院，他一生中照顧的孤兒總人數高達1萬多人。他還開辦了117所學校，為超過12萬名兒童提供基督教教育。他開設的幾所孤兒院完全依靠禱告運作─慕勒從不向外界募捐。他記錄了五萬多次得到回應的禱告，並表示他從未有過未得回應的禱告。 最廣為人知的一次禱告發生在一天早晨，有三百個孩子準備去上學，但沒有食物做早餐。於是慕勒吩咐孩子們坐在空桌前，為這頓飯獻上感恩。禱告結束後，一位麵包師來敲門，他帶來的新鮮麵包足夠分給每一個人吃。此外，送牛奶工人的車子恰好在孤兒院門口拋了錨，於是他也將十大桶牛奶送給了孤兒院的孩子們。 在去往美國的船上，慕勒告訴船長下個星期六他在魁北克有一場聚會。船長說，由於霧太大，不可能會按時到達。慕勒回答道：「並非如此。我的眼目不會放在這濃霧上，而是放在永活的神身上，是祂掌控我生活中的各種環境。」 接隨後他獻上禱告，不到五分鐘，天空中的濃霧消失了；於是船長也信了主。 慕勒一生都不停地獻上禱告，我們也可以這樣做。上帝可能不會總以我們喜歡的方式回應我們的禱告，但每一個真誠的禱告祂都不會忽略。你可以相信祂！

To die and be put into the ground leads to life in this parable.https://bible.com/bible/59/jhn.12.24.ESVNo exceptionsDie => Follow => Serve => HonorCrown preceded by the cross/crucifixionFor JesusFor usAdditionalThe Triumphal Entry of Jesus is one of the most well-known events in the Gospels, and it's rich with meaning. It's recorded in all four Gospels: Matthew 21:1–11, Mark 11:1–11, Luke 19:28–44, and John 12:12–19.Here's the basic scene:It happens at the beginning of what we now call Holy Week, (Sunday) just a few days before Jesus' crucifixion (Friday). Jesus is approaching Jerusalem, and as He nears the city, He sends two of His disciples to find a donkey and her colt, fulfilling the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9 — “See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey.”Riding a donkey (instead of a war horse) was deeply symbolic. It showed that He came not as a conquering military leader but as the humble, peaceful Messiah. As He rides into Jerusalem, crowds gather and spread their cloaks and palm branches on the road. They shout:“Hosanna to the Son of David!”“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”“Hosanna” means “save us,” so they were both praising Him and calling out for deliverance. The crowd was hoping for a political savior to overthrow Roman rule, but Jesus had come to bring a far greater salvation — freedom from sin and death.This moment is full of contrasts:He's welcomed as a king, but within days, He will be rejected and crucified.The crowds are shouting praise, but soon many will shout, “Crucify Him!”It fulfills prophecy and shows Jesus embracing His mission, knowing exactly where it will lead.It's called the “Triumphal Entry,” but the triumph is not in immediate victory — it's in Jesus walking the path of suffering for our salvation. The Triumphal Entry is saturated with Old Testament echoes and themes that quietly (or loudly!) proclaim Jesus as the true King, the Messiah, and the sacrificial Lamb. Let's unpack a few:Zechariah 9:9 — King Comes on a Donkey“Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.”Jesus intentionally fulfills this prophecy. Kings sometimes rode donkeys in the ancient Near East to symbolize peace. When Solomon was crowned, he rode King David's mule (1 Kings 1:33–35). So Jesus riding a donkey is a royal claim — but a humble, peaceful one. He's not coming as a warlord; He's coming as the Prince of Peace.Psalm 118:25–26 — The Hosanna PsalmThe crowd shouts:“Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”This is a direct quote from Psalm 118, a psalm used in pilgrim festivals, especially Passover. “Hosanna” originally meant “save us now!” — it's a plea for salvation and a cry of praise. Psalm 118 also speaks of the rejected stone becoming the cornerstone, which Jesus applies to Himself later in the week (Matthew 21:42).Palm Branches — Victory and KingshipPalm branches were symbols of victory and kingship, often associated with Jewish nationalism (think of the Maccabean Revolt about 150 years earlier, where palm branches celebrated military victory). The crowd is treating Jesus like a conquering hero, anticipating national deliverance from Rome.(See notes below for more)Transition:"So, when Jesus rides into Jerusalem, He's not just making a political statement — He's weaving together centuries of prophecy, promise, and hope. He is the promised King, the humble servant, the Passover Lamb, the cornerstone, and the very presence of God returning to His people.And of course, all of this sets the stage for the cross. The King enters not to take power by force, but to lay down His life." -ChatGPTConclusion:Bottom line: I can trust God with everything, even when in need, because he provides, he cares, and he is with us.George Mueller, champion of orphans in England when asked, "What has been the secret of your life?" hung his head and said, "There was a day when I died." Then he bent lower and said, "Died to George Müller, his opinions, preferences, tastes, and will; died to the world, its approval or censure; died to the approval or blame even of brethren or friends." -Hughes, p. 307-308What about you?Do you celebrate Jesus but not surrender to his rule and reign? The latter undoes the former. Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” Acts 2:36-39 NIVInvitationHow do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTES"George Müller (1805–1898) was a Christian evangelist and the founder of the Ashley Down orphanages in Bristol, England. Originally from Prussia (modern-day Germany), Müller lived a rebellious youth but experienced a profound conversion in his early twenties. Moved by compassion and a deep trust in God's provision, he established homes for orphaned children at a time when many were homeless and destitute.What set Müller apart was his radical reliance on prayer. He famously never solicited funds directly but trusted God to provide for the needs of thousands of children under his care. Over his lifetime, Müller cared for over 10,000 orphans, established schools, and distributed vast numbers of Bibles and tracts. His legacy continues as a testimony to God's faithfulness and the power of prayerful dependence.If you want, I can also give you some powerful quotes or stories from his life!Of course — here's a quick bio on George Müller:George Müller (1805–1898) was a Christian evangelist and the founder of the Ashley Down orphanages in Bristol, England.

Jesus enters Jerusalem on the 10th of Nisan, the day Jewish families selected their Passover lambs (Exodus 12:3). He is, in effect, presenting Himself as the Lamb of God, chosen for sacrifice. John the Baptist had already called Him this in John 1:29 — “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”God's Glory Returning to the Temple (Ezekiel 43:1–5)Ezekiel saw a vision of God's glory returning to the temple from the east. Jesus, the embodiment of God's glory, approaches Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives to the east (Luke 19:37). There's a sense that God is coming back to His house — though, heartbreakingly, many will not recognize Him. -RC SproulFrom RC Sproul“In the intertestamental period, something took place that would define the Jewish people in terms of their national identity for centuries to come. In the second century BC, the temple was desecrated by Antiochus IV Epiphanes, leader of the Seleucid Empire. In response, a Jewish man named Mattathias, who was committed to the ancient covenant of Israel, determined to rescue the temple and the nation from the invasion of the Seleucids. Mattathias became the leader of a guerrilla group that fought against the Seleucids. When he died, the leadership of this insurrectionist movement passed to his son Judas, who became known as Judas Maccabaeus, which means “the hammer.” Judas Maccabaeus became a national hero, a Hebrew Robin Hood, who wreaked havoc among the troops of the Seleucids. He put so much pressure on the Seleucids that in 164 BC they released the temple for the Jews to practice their own faith. That event was met with so much celebration that a new feast was instituted called the Feast of Dedication or the Feast of Lights. We know it as Hanukkah, which is celebrated even to this day. Later, Judas' brother Simon Maccabaeus actually drove the Seleucids out of Jerusalem altogether, and when that happened he was acclaimed a national hero and was celebrated with a parade, something like a ticker-tape parade in New York. In that parade, the Jews celebrated his victory with music and with the waving of palm branches. At that point in Jewish history, the palm branch became significant .. as a sign and symbol of a military victory, of a triumph. In fact, that symbolism became so deeply rooted in the Jewish consciousness that when the Jews revolted against the Romans in the decade of the sixties AD, they dared to mint their own coins with the image of a palm branch, because it is their national symbol of victory. When the people waved their palm branches to welcome Jesus, they cried out: “Hosanna! ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!' The King of Israel!” (v. 13b) Why did they say this? The word hosanna is derived from a Hebrew word that literally means “save now.” Both this plea and “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD” are found in the hallel, a series of psalms that were sung every morning at the Feast of Tabernacles. The series starts with Psalm 113 and goes through Psalm 118. In Psalm 118, we find these words: Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, And I will praise the LORD. This is the gate of the LORD, through which the righteous shall enter. I will praise You, for You have answered me, and have become my salvation. The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone. This was the LORD's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD. (vv. 19–26) Every Jewish pilgrim was familiar with the words from the hallel, so when the crowds came out to see Jesus, they naturally used those words. The plea “Save now” near the end of the quoted passage is the English translation of the root word of hosanna. The words “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD” and the additional description shouted by the people, “the King of Israel!” indicate that the people looked to Jesus for salvation, though most likely in a military sense.”John - An Expositional CommentaryR.C.

George Müller—an evangelist who established orphanages in the 1800s—was known for his prayer life. And yet, in addition to his faith in God's provision, Müller was also a man of action. He wisely said, “Our walk counts far more than our talk, always!”That's so true. You may talk to your son about patience, kindness, and self-control, but do your actions demonstrate these characteristics? If a referee makes a bad call, how do you respond? When an elderly neighbor needs help, do you view it as a hassle or an opportunity? Make sure what you say is backed up by what you do. Consistency in speech and action are a winning combination that your son will want to imitate.For more encouragement and parenting advice, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
The story of how strawberries went from small forage item to one of the world’s most popular fruits – though they're technically not a true fruit – involves lots of crossbreeding experimentation, as you might expect, but also a bit of spy craft.

George Müller, un hombre de fe del siglo XIX, dirigió orfanatos en Inglaterra sin pedir nunca dinero a nadie. En una ocasión, los niños se sentaron a la mesa sin nada para comer. Sin desesperarse, Müller oró: “Señor, gracias por el alimento que proveerás.” En ese momento, llamaron a la puerta: era un panadero que sentía que Dios le había dicho que horneara pan para ellos. Minutos después, llegó un lechero cuya carreta se había averiado cerca del orfanato y ofreció toda la leche antes de que se echara a perder.Müller vivió dependiendo completamente de Dios y vio milagro tras milagro. Su historia nos recuerda que la fe no es solo creer en Dios, sino vivir como si Sus promesas fueran una realidad.En la Biblia, Josué vio los muros de Jericó caer por obediencia y fe. Pedro caminó sobre las aguas cuando fijó su mirada en Jesús. Abraham confió en la promesa de Dios aun cuando parecía imposible.Si enfrentas obstáculos hoy, no dudes en confiar en el Dios que abre caminos. La fe mueve montañas y transforma lo imposible en testimonio. La biblia dice en Mateo 21:22: “Y todo lo que pidiereis en oración, creyendo, lo recibiréis”. (RV1960)

Series: Signs & GloryTitle: "What does authentic faith look like?Scripture: John 4:43-54John 1:9-12; 8:31-32Bottom line: Authentic faith looks like an actual commitment, built on an informed belief, and a growing dependency of God.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESOUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTIONToday we're answer the question, "What does authentic faith look like?" When I think of the word authentic, I think of collections where value is based on the something rare being authenticated or declared the real thing.The most valuable American coin today is a 1794 silver dollar called the Flowing Hair Silver Dollar. It has lady liberty on one side and an American eagle on the other. Many believe that it was the first coin minted by the US government. There were only 1800 made and experts think only about 120 remain. It last sold for 12 million dollars. But it's only worth 12 million dollars if it's an authentic Flowing Hair Silver Dollar.The question today is what does authentic faith look like. We're asking this question to setup the more important question, "Is my faith authentic?"CONTEXTJesus has been talking with the woman at the well. He and the 12 got to see a whole town come to Christ. It has been an amazing day. The enemies of the Jews (the Samaritans) have trusted the Jewish Messiah! There is no earthly reason why they would do this. Only God.John will use this town of people in Sychar to expose the contrast with the way the Jews are responding (en masse) to Jesus. (Cf. John 1:11-12)John will also contrast the nobleman's growing faith with the hesitant faith of Nicodemus.What does authentic faith look like?Is my faith authentic?SERMON Bottom line: Authentic faith looks like an actual commitment, built on an informed belief, and a growing dependency on God.What does authentic faith look like? (Help from Matt Carter's commentary)I. Actual commitment--not just spiritual curiosity.Nobleman embraced Light of the world and Savior of the world.Overall response is rejection of Jews (cf. John 1:9-12); still some exceptions; not unlike us today.This contrast shows us what authentic faith looks like.Spiritual curiosity ≠ Authentic faithJesus condemns them for lack of faith and desire for "signs and wonders""You" is plural meaning the Jews and not just the nobleman. Maybe even in further contrast (like the Centurion)Samaritans have authentic faith in that town--they took Jesus as his word. No signs and wonders needed.II. Informed belief--not just emotional feelings.Requires understanding certain truths about Jesus.Content of our faith. Word > ExperienceAre you a follower? Why? For what he did or who he is?Nobleman looking for a miracle? Yes, but takes Jesus at his word instead of having to see it happen instantly. Similar to Samaritans.We aren't called to a blind faith or emotional faith, though it can be emotional. We have a reasonable faith. Who is Jesus? Title so far in John include:Son of GodSon of ManMessiah/ChristWord of GodKing of IsraelLamb of GodIII. Growing dependence--not just a single decision.2X it says nobleman "believed." (4:51-53)Same with Samaritans. (39-41)In neither case are we told WHEN they were saved. John shows it's a continual belief that truly saves or demonstrates authentic faith. It starts with a moment and decision--but it never ends. We persevere in the faith over time.Pointing to a past decision isn't enough if not walking in it. We'll know your status based on your fruit. Cf. Hebrews 3:12-14; Galatians 5:23-24John 1:!2 those who are believing (present tense) in his name.John 8:31 if you "continue" in my word.To "continue" or "hold to" his word is to "abide" or "remain" in Christ.Applications/questions:Are you spiritually curious? That's fine. Just don't think you're secure and good with the Lord just because you're spiritual or open. Christ calls us to follow him the rest of our life. Until you surrender to that, you're just curious. It's not a convenient faith that he calls us to--it's a costly faith. He calls us to ultimately come and die. Is your faith rooted on how you feel? I feel close to God today but not tomorrow. Emotions are a legitimate part of the human experience--even in our spiritual life. But we root our faith in truth--God's word is truth. Jesus said, "I am the way, and the truth..." We have an informed faith; a reasonable faith; not a blind faith. Is your faith growing? Are you abiding in Jesus daily? Are you walking with God daily? These are different ways of asking the question, am I growing in dependence on the Lord?CONCLUSIONBottom line: Authentic faith starts with an actual commitment, and an informed belief on the word, and a growing dependence. What about you? Is your faith authentic?Here's another way to look at it.How do you know that you're married?Well, you might say, I have a wedding ring and a marriage license. I could respond, well, I know people who have a marriage license and maybe even still wear their wedding ring. But they are no longer married.The only way to truly know you're married is because you live the married life with your spouse. You raise the kids together. You take care of the house together. You do life together.The same is true with authentic faith. What does authentic faith look like? It looks like an actual commitment, built on an informed faith, and a growing dependence.What about you? Is your faith authentic?If not, what can you do?Repent--turn from the way you're living life and turn back to the trust and follow Jesus' words, ways and works.Believe--Rest on the calling you've received; build on the word of God; pray towards growing in Christ.`Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” Acts 2:36-39 NIVInvitationHow do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTES"Jesus was saying, "Your experience with the Samaritans is one of reaping where you did not sow," and that surely was the case. They had not sowed, but they reaped. In our age some of us may sow, and some of us may reap. The thrust of these verses is that there is going to be a good deal of reaping, but the implication also is that sometimes we may sow and never see the results. I am reminded of the story of George Müller who founded many orphanages in the last century. Early in his life Müller made the acquaintance of three men, and he began to pray for their salvation. Müller lived a long time, but when he died, none of those men had yet trusted Christ. It is recorded in his diary that he prayed for these men daily during all those years. But that is not the end! The glorious fact is that all three of those men did meet Christ-two of them in their seventies and one in his eighties! Müller sowed, but someone else reaped. Whether we find ourselves sowing or reaping, our lives are to be permeated with a sense of urgency. Jesus' harvest mentality was part of the secret of his life. We also are meant to be harvesting!" -Kent Hughes, p. 139"This reality should motivate us to labor with all our might to make Jesus Christ and his gospel known and loved throughout the world. Augustine wrote this beautiful reflection about Jesus Christ:You are ever active, yet always at rest. You gather all things to yourself, though you suffer no need. ... You welcome those who come to you, though you never lost them. You release us from our debts, but you lose nothing thereby. You are my God, my Life, my holy Delight, but is this enough to say of you? Can any man say enough when he speaks of you? Yet woe betide those who are silent about you! (Confessions [IX 1], 181)May we, by the grace of God, never be silent." -Matt Carter"I'll Do It Later (v. 35):Jesus asks the disciples a pointed question: "Don't you say, 'There are still four more months, and then comes the harvest'?" (v. 35). He's saying, "Do you guys think you need to wait before reaping the fruit of the gospel? Are you hoping it will come later? You're wrong; look at the Samaritans coming right now. What are you waiting for? The time is now!" Jesus is driving the urgency of the gospel home to the hearts of his disciples. We don't wait for a different time or a better time; the harvest is now. Go, do the work of sharing the gospel right now. Charles Spurgeon, preaching on this passage, challenged his congregation:Some of you good people, who do nothing except go to public meetings, the Bible readings, and prophetic conferences, and other forms of spiritual [indulgence], would be a good deal better Christians if you would look after the poor and needy around you. If you would just tuck up your sleeves for work, and go and tell the gospel to dying men, you would find your spiritual health mightily restored, for very much of the sickness of Christians comes through their having nothing to do. All feeding and no working gives men spiritual indigestion. Be idle, careless, with nothing to live for, nothing to care for, no sinner to pray for, no backslider to lead back to the cross, no trembler to encourage, no little child to tell of a Savior, no grey-headed man to enlighten in the things of God, no object, in fact, to live for; and who wonders if you begin to groan, and to murmur, and to look within, until you are ready to die of despair?

This is the final episode of a three-part conversation with author Elizabeth T. Craft regarding her recent book, Yankee Doodle Dandy — George M. Cohan and the Broadway Stage, the first book major work about Cohan in fifty years. If you missed the first two episodes in this series, you may want to catch up with those before listening to this one. In this episode, Elizabeth Craft and I discuss the final decades of Cohan's remarkable career, during which he continued to establish and define the very nature of celebrity, including the significant impact he had on young Oscar Hammerstein II and the next generation of Broadway innovators. Elizabeth also shares with us how, during the 1920s, in a series of hit musicals, Cohan, for the first time, put his Irish American heritage and identity at the center of his work, which was not without controversy. Along the way, she reveals the truth behind Cohen's claim that he was born on the 4th of July, provides us with an inside view of the making of the classic 1941 Cohan bio-musical, Yankee Doodle Dandy, and sums up his enduring legacy as the primary inventor of the myth of Broadway.

Rev. Terence Gray closes the "Good Plans" series with a message on seeking and doing God's will. Reflecting on Matthew 7 and the inspiring life of George Müller, Pastor Gray emphasizes that doing God's will involves progressive steps of faith and occasional leaps, rooted in trust and dependence on Him. He challenges us to examine our motives, place our full weight on God, and live lives marked by obedience and faith. With practical insights and encouragement, this sermon reminds us that God's plans are good, and He is faithful to sustain us every step of the way.

This week, Elizabeth and I begin with a discussion of Cohan, the entertainer. He was, without a doubt, one of the first brand-name celebrities in the modern sense, and every aspect of his persona was perfectly integrated – his unique style of performance, the content of his plays and lyrics, the beat and rhythm of his music, all worked together in perfect unison.

My guest today is author Elizabeth T. Craft, whose terrific new book, Yankee Doodle Dandy — George M. Cohan and the Broadway Stage, is the first book about Cohan in fifty years. No one looms larger in the history of early Broadway than the Irish American writer, composer, lyricist, director, choreographer, producer, actor, singer, dancer, and musical theater legend George M. Cohan — who is often called “the father of musical comedy.” It is no mistake that Cohan's is the one and only statue of a Broadway figure to have a place of honor in the center of Times Square. As you will hear, Elizabeth Craft situates Cohan as a central figure in the invention of the Broadway musical and illustrates how his plays, musicals, songs, and persona indelibly shaped the American cultural landscape of his day and more than 100 years later continue to have enduring resonance. Featured on this episode is music from The Paragon Ragtime Orchestra's outstanding album You're A Grand Old Rag — The Music of George M. Cohan, and the studio cast recording of Yankee Doodle Dandy (book by David Armstrong, music & lyrics by George M. Cohan, musical arrangements and additional music and lyrics by Albert Evans.)

Instead, he relied solely on prayer and faith in God to provide the necessary resources, a testament to his unwavering belief that God would supply all his needs. The Benges highlight various instances where Muller's faith was tested, yet he continued to trust in divine provision.Throughout the biography, the authors emphasize Muller's devotion to prayer, his systematic approach to reading the Bible, and his commitment to sharing the Gospel. His story illustrates themes of faith, generosity, and the power of belief in overcoming obstacles.The biography also includes anecdotes of miraculous provisions during times of financial need, illustrating how Muller's faith brought hope to many. The Benge's narrative captures not only the impact of Muller's work but also the profound faith that underpinned his endeavors, making it an encouraging read for those interested in Christian history and the importance of compassionate service.Chapter 3 George Muller AuthorJanet and Geoff Benge are noted authors who specialize in writing biographies of influential historical figures, focusing primarily on Christian missionaries and leaders.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 26th of November, 2024, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.We start off in 1 Kings 19:5: “Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, “Arise and eat.” That was Elijah in the desert and the Lord fed him through the angel. Then we go straight to the Book of Mark 1:13: “And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to Him.” Oh my dear friend, nothing has changed, Jesus still wants to do it for you today! I don't know what situation you are in. Still, He is telling you loudly and clearly, “If I can do it for my prophet, Elijah, feed him in the desert by using an angel, and if I can look after My Son, My beloved Son, for forty days and nights in the most extreme and hostile environment”. He can do it for you and for me!I really do believe in angels. I want to tell you that Jesus is God made flesh, but He was very much man, and the experts will tell you, after three days the human body closes down if it doesn't get water, and then forty days without food, any sort of food, is basically physically impossible. So how did it happen? Yes, our beloved Father sent His angels to minister to His Son in the desert to keep His Son from being attacked by wild beasts and by the lies of the devil. He never abandons His children, no matter how desperate the situation might be. I want to say to you today, I don't know where you are at, but I want to tell you if you allow the angels to minister to you, they will take you on their wings through your situation and bring you out the other side. George Müller is one of my heroes. Now, George Müller started the children's homes in Bristol, England a couple of hundred years ago and what a man of faith! He had taken in a whole lot of street urchins, they were in this big boarding house and they had had their last meal that night. The next morning there was nothing to eat and yet when George Müller got up, he said to the children, “Lay the table...” They thought the old man had lost his marbles! “…and let us say our grace, “For what we are about to receive,…” There was a knock at the door. He said to one of the children, “Go and see who is at the door.” There was a dairyman who had been passing by with his wagon, to take his milk, cheese, butter, cream to town to sell and the trailer had broken down. He said, “Can you use this food?” They said, “Thank you”, closed the door and when they had sat down, there was another knock on the door. He opened the door and there was a baker with a red face, very embarrassed and he said, ”The Lord woke me up in the middle of the night and asked me to bake bread for you.”Folks, I want to tell you, those were angels! Today, trust God for your angel.Jesus bless you and goodbye.
I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 29th of October, 2024 and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go straight to the Book of Psalms. I just love the psalms! Psalm 37:4: “Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.”Now folks, I don't know how it is with you but with us here at Shalom, the Lord gave us a specific scripture to stand on. Now, we have adopted this scripture verse as our verse for this ministry. Now, we got it from George Müller, the man who started the children's home in Bristol, England. Something like 10,000 children went through his home, 60 million pounds through his hands, and what a man of faith, a great inspiration to me, a practical man. I never had the privilege of going to Bible College, and I tell you what - it is a great privilege and I am very sorry about it. I would have loved to have gone to Bible College but the Lord sent me to a different Bible College. It's called “the school of life, the school of hard knocks” - that's right. My school fees were paid on the farm, through drought, through fire, through personal tragedies, through economic hardships, through disease. That is where I learned to delight myself in the Lord and He gave me the desires of my heart. That is why I am speaking to you this morning, my dear friend. Please today, focus on Jesus and He will take care of the rest. The very next verse, verse 5 says: “Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” That was one of the great explorer's verses. I am talking about Dr David Livingstone from bonny Scotland, who discovered the Victoria Falls, who was instrumental and one of the main players in abolishing that horrible human trade of selling people as slaves - David Livingstone. I want to say to you folks, there was many a time he didn't know where he was going because no one had ever been there before, but he committed his ways to the Lord, and the Lord did the rest.Today, delight yourself in the Lord. Let Him take care of your situation. Commit your way to the Lord and let Him direct your paths. Have a wonderful day,Jesus bless you and goodbye.

Born in Prussia in 1805, George Müller started life far from the godly figure he would become. As a teenager, Müller was involved in theft, gambling, and a life of rebellion. But God's grace turned his life around at the age of 20 when he attended a small prayer meeting, where, for the first time, he saw believers pray on their knees. This simple act of humility struck Müller deeply, and soon after, he gave his life to Christ. Müller's legacy would be built on his unwavering faith in God's provision. Without appealing for funds or making his needs public, he trusted that God would provide for the thousands of orphans under his care. And provide He did. Müller established five orphan houses that cared for over 10,000 orphans throughout his lifetime. His faith and prayer life were an inspiration, and his ministry grew to distribute millions of Bibles, New Testaments, and Christian literature worldwide. What made Müller's faith so powerful was his confidence in God's promises, particularly Romans 8:28 and Psalm 84:11. He lived out the belief that "no good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly," trusting that all things—whether struggles or blessings—would work together for good in God's divine plan. This episode explores how George Müller's life became a testimony to God's faithfulness, showing the world that trusting in God is never in vain. His story will inspire you to rely more fully on the One who provides for every need. Scripture Reading: Psalm 84:11

We love to hear from our listeners. Send us a message. SR One Capital Management CEO Simeon George, M.D. has a seemingly innate ability to pick winning biotech builders. Early on, he and his firm got behind CRISPR's Samarth Kulkarni, Ph.D., Arcellx' Rami Elghandour, and Nkarta's Paul Hastings, for example. With nearly 50 biotech leaders in SR One's portfolio, there are plenty more where those three came from. On this episode of the Business of Biotech, Dr. George, admits that despite his gifted brain he more readily follows his heart.

In this second part of our three-part series on 3 Core Questions, we're diving deep into Question #2: "Who is your provision?" It's easy to believe that all we have comes from our own efforts, but today, we’ll dive into what it means to truly recognize God as our provider. Together, we'll unpack how this perspective shift can transform not just our finances, but our entire approach to stewardship. Join me as we uncover how to lean on God’s abundant provision and discover the peace and freedom that comes from trusting in His perfect plan. In this episode, John discusses: Understanding who is the ultimate provider Reflecting on the sources of financial provision Recognizing God's provision in our daily life Avoiding comparison with others' financial situations Key Takeaways: Relying solely on one's own efforts for provision leads to stress and dissatisfaction while recognizing God as the ultimate provider brings with it more peace and a sense of gratitude. George Müller's story illustrates an unwavering faith in God's provision and how it led to miraculous outcomes, once feeding 300 orphans with unexpected bread and milk. The temptation to covet others' provision of wealth or success, distracts from the joy and contentment that come from trusting in God's personal provision. Shifting the mindset from personal provision to God's provision changes the way financial decisions are considered and made, fostering a reliance on divine wisdom rather than on personal capability or societal pressures. “He may not always provide in the ways we expect or want him to, but his provision is always exactly what we need—nothing more, nothing less.” Resources Mentioned: George Müller's story: https://www.georgemuller.org/ CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!
