Most couples think about selfishness as an individual problem, but what if a marriage itself can become inward-focused? In this episode, Derek, Gabrielle, and Scott discuss what it means to steward your marriage for God's glory, leverage your resources for the Kingdom, and move from keeping score to living on mission together.Discussion Questions1- When we honestly evaluate our marriage, are we more inward-focused or Kingdom-focused? If someone observed our marriage for a month, would they conclude we're living on mission?Where do we tend to keep score against each other?2- Which area are we stewarding well? Not well? Time, Money, Resources, Health, Gifts3- Who outside our family is being impacted by our marriage?4- What is one practical step we could take this month to better leverage our marriage for God's Kingdom?

As the one who gives good and perfect gifts: yes! In a variety of ways.

On a quiet winter morning, as fresh snow softens the world outside her window, Mara begins a gentle, heartfelt project—needle felting tiny animals into keychain charms for the people she loves. With warm tea nearby and soft wool in her hands, she carefully shapes each miniature creature: a curious raccoon, a cheerful whale, a sleeping cat, and a bright-eyed fox. Each one is made slowly and intentionally, carrying a small piece of her attention and care, transforming simple fibers into meaningful, pocket-sized companions.As her collection grows, so does the quiet joy behind it. When the time comes to give them away, each tiny animal sparks smiles, laughter, and unexpected moments of connection. What began as a simple winter craft becomes something more—a reminder that even the smallest handmade gifts can carry warmth, thoughtfulness, and a lasting sense of being remembered. Hosted on Acast.

Most people read to check off a list. Mary Jo reads to implement — and The Noticer by Andy Andrews is one of the books that changed how she connects with clients, leads her team, and shows up in every relationship she has. In this episode, Mary Jo breaks down The Noticer and why every business owner should read it. The core idea is simple but powerful: people show you exactly how they want to be treated — through what they do, what they give, and what they value. Are you paying attention? In this episode: Why reading 52 books a year is worthless if you implement nothing How to apply love languages to your client relationships (and why it works) The art of noticing what your employees, clients, and family truly value Real-life examples: a baking friend, a Christmas party, and a broken septic pipe The book about difficult people that frustrated Mary Jo — and why she doesn't recommend it Why you're allowed to quit a book that's not serving you Books mentioned: The Noticer — Andy Andrews The Noticer Returns — Andy Andrews The Traveler's Gift — Andy Andrews

I have the Gifts of God in my awareness whne I give them away. If I have God's Peace and Happiness, and i do not share these openly, I withold myself from the gratitude I would feel when I block the the flow of giving them. Or ... I may give sometimes these gifts, but retract them at other times, and thus fall short of having their constant joy and gratitude. We have to surrender, somehow, by dropping our thoughts and tendencies that keep us in low energy, and devoid of feeling the gratitude for all we have receieved. The Gifts Of God are constantly given to us; can we not constantly give them to our brothers and sisters--and to every atom of creation? This would bring us supreme delight. Then when we give this joy consistently, "It can be but my gratitude I earn."

What if the voice on the mountain is real? My guest today, Suzanne Ross, was living the so-called American dream when her hair started falling out and her body began shutting down. On a vacation in the California desert, she ran to a mountaintop, threw her arms up, and said, "I am miserable in the extreme and I see no way out." In that instant, she was surrounded by divine love and heard: Stay here, heal yourself, and then heal others. She ran down a different woman. Thirty years later, she's been teaching what she calls quantum love—a love so vast it holds the roses and the weeds, the joy and the suffering equally. Suzanne has walked through dark nights, cancer, broken bones, and loss. And she says every fall is a gift. You don't need a mountaintop to start. Just stillness. Just listening. This conversation is about surrender, ascension, and the love that holds it all. 00:00 The Mountaintop That Changed Everything02:41 Welcome Suzanne Ross to Life, Death, and the Space Between03:50 From Corporate Misery to Desert Healing05:39 The Mountain Run: Surrender and Divine Intervention10:17 Why She Listened (And Most People Don't)14:19 What Is a Quantum Leap?15:52 Quantum Consciousness: Where Physics Meets Spirit20:21 Small Practices That Awaken Something Bigger24:23 How to Carry Transcendence Into Daily Life28:26 Podcast Promo & Resources (Mid-Roll)31:21 What Is Quantum Love?34:29 Why the Shadow Is Love Too36:32 Dark Nights of the Soul (And Why They're Gifts)38:29 The Rise Up Trilogy: Wake Up, Rise Up, Lighten Up44:22 Suzanne's Retreats in Sedona and San Diego46:59 Where to Find Suzanne48:30 Closing LEARN MORE ABOUT · Website: SuzanneRossTranscendence.com· Retreat: SanDiegoTranscendenceRetreat.com (use coupon code: QUANTUM LOVE)· Books: Wake Up, Rise Up, Lighten Up (The Rise Up Series)· Social Media: @SuzanneRossTranscendence JOIN MY COMMUNITY In The Space Between membership, you'll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.

Listen in as we continue our series on norms in the early church according to the book of Acts. The filling of the Holy Spirit is a prominent theme in the early church and the advance of the gospel. In this episode, we share insights from Acts into how to be filled with the Spirit.  Spirit-filling is mentioned at least 10 times in Acts. These instances fall into two categories:  - A general character trait about a person. Examples: The 7 chosen to serve (Acts 6:3-5); Stephen (Acts 6:8); Barnabas (Acts 11:23-24). - A special filling at a specific moment in time that resulted in special power – often boldness in gospel proclamation.  Examples: *Acts 2- Believers spoke in tongues, testifying to mighty acts of God; 3000 saved.*Acts 4:8-12- Peter, filled with the Spirit, preaches with boldness. *Acts 4:29-31- All believers praying for boldness and signs and wonders; place shaken and they were all filled with Spirit and continued to speak the word with boldness.  *Acts 7:55- Stephen, full of Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God. *Acts 13:9- Paul and Barnabas on Cyprus during the first missionary journey, proclaiming the word of God, and this magician/false prophet was opposing them and trying to keep the proconsul from believing. Paul made Elymas blind, resulting in the proconsul believing when he saw what occurred. *Acts 13:52- Disciples filled with joy and Holy Spirit. -Eph. 5:18 – “Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit.” Books Referenced: The Ministry of Intercession by Andrew Murray.The Baptism and Gifts of the Spirit by D.

I myself am satisfied about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge and able to instruct one another. 15 But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. 17 In Christ Jesus, then, I have reason to be proud of my work for God. 18 For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me to bring the Gentiles to obedience—by word and deed, 19 by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God—so that from Jerusalem and all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled the ministry of the gospel of Christ; 20 and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation, 21 but as it is written,“Those who have never been told of him will see,     and those who have never heard will understand.”22 This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to you. 23 But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you, 24 I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a while. 25 At present, however, I am going to Jerusalem bringing aid to the saints. 26 For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem. 27 For they were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings. 28 When therefore I have completed this and have delivered to them what has been collected, I will leave for Spain by way of you. 29 I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.30 I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf, 31 that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, 32 so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. 33 May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.1.     The sermon opens with Viktor Frankl scribbling notes in a concentration camp — already living in a story that hadn't happened yet, for people he didn't know. When you're honest with yourself, what size is the story you're living in day to day?2.     Frederick Douglass could have disappeared into a safe, quiet life after escaping slavery. Instead he gave up his anonymity for a story bigger than himself. Is there something you've already been given — a platform, a skill, an experience, access — that belongs to a bigger story than you've been using it for?3.     "A story the size of your own comfort doesn't need a very big God." Does that land for you? Are there areas of your life where you suspect you're not experiencing much of God because you're not in any situation that you think requires him?4.     Or- Is there something in your life right now that you need others to actually be striving in prayer with you over? Have you told anyone?5.     What's your Spain? The godly ambition you keep circling but haven't let yourself pursue. What comes to mind — and what's kept you from taking a step toward it?

Pastor Chad Roberts unveils the power gifts—faith, healings, and miracles—from 1 Corinthians 12, rooted in chapter 13:8-12.

We’ve covered a lot of ground throughout our series on mental and spiritual health called It Is Well With My Soul. Hopefully, we have stripped away some of the shame and stigma, so you are more comfortable using whatever means you have at your disposal to get healthy. At the same time, you have to remember that Jesus is the Healer. All of the ways of healing are gifts of God’s grace to help His people, so as you find and figure out what works, give glory to God for it. In 1 Kings 19:13-18, we find God’s response to Elijah’s complaint, His answer to the problem that sent the prophet running into the wilderness, suicidal and alone. He was at rock bottom. He had carried too much for too long and forgot who he was. That might be the best way to put almost every mental health crisis — no matter how disruptive or debilitating. This week, we’re finishing our series with a message all about what to do when you’ve reached rock bottom.

It's my birthday month and I'm turning 63. And instead of dreading it, I'm genuinely grateful for it. In this episode, I'm sharing three gifts of getting older that don't get talked about enough. I don't mean the greeting card version; I'm talking about the real ones. The kind you can only notice when you've actually lived long enough to see them. If you're a woman in your 50s or 60s who's starting to feel time differently, this one's for you.

What Does America's 250th Birthday Mean for Its Future and Our Faith?   To celebrate America's 250th birthday, Curtis Chang is joined by his The After Party partners David French and Russell Moore to ask how Christians should think about patriotism, democracy, and national identity in a divisive age. Comparing the optimism of the 1976 Bicentennial with today's fractured political climate, they explore America's founding ideals, the promises and failures of liberty and equality, the relationship between Christianity and the American experiment, and the dangers of Christian nationalism. Together, they answer listener questions and offer a vision for faithful civic engagement — one marked by gratitude without idolatry, honesty without despair, and allegiance to Christ above every nation.   00:34 - Introduction to America's 250th Birthday 02:07 - Comparing the 250th with the Bicentennial 09:18 - America's Gifts to the World 16:16 - Was America Founded as a Christian Nation? 25:13 - The Pull of Christian Nationalism 29:29 - Project 2025 & What True American Renewal Requires 36:07 - A Bottom Up Christian Influence on Government 40:30 - Politics is Downstream from Culture 45:14 - Guidance for Pastors on the 250th 48:24 - America's Historical Role in the World 52:22 - Defining Christian Patriotism 58:03 - A Closing Prayer For Our Country   Sign up for The After Party   More to Listen to: Good Faith 199 – David French asks: What the Heck Is a Christian Nationalist?
