Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    Ever have that friend or foe who just always interrupts you? Like they literally can't help themselves. I once had a counseling appointment with a mom dad and son. They were there for their son who was in some trouble. But this dad literally interrupted every persons sentence… every sentence. I finally snapped and said if you interrupt anyone again I am kicking you out of my office… it took 2 seconds…. 2 SECONDS and I had to kick him out. I hate people who interrupt!      SCENE THREE   Mark 5  The Physical    21 When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. 22 Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet. 23 He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” 24 So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him. 25 And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. 26 She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. 27 When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.” 29 Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering. 30 At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?” 31 “You see the people crowding against you,” his disciples answered, “and yet you can ask, ‘Who touched me?' ” 32 But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. 33 Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.”     V. 33 trembling with fear Here is the secret… can fear and faith work together? TREMBLING GK  TREMOUSA TREMOR.. UNEASY Don't make it about me FEAR GK. PHOBEO Alarmed due to reverence -      ***If you have never seen the grand canyon… and I take you to it and pull the blindfold off of it… the response should be awe in the sight of it - AND NOT YOU ARE SO AWESOME FOR TAKING ME HERE! Our faith is most effective and most powerful when it is about wanting God to get the glory, the attention.  Its simply: Giving God glory, building his kingdom vs. Getting the attention and building our brand/empire

Surrendering is a tough concept. Only with God is it a safe bet because He is good and His intentions toward are always for our best. The flip side of surrender is trust. Giving God what we treasure is trusting God with the vulnerability of our hearts. His best for us is often seen in the tears of letting go of those things and people who mean the most to us. He knows you. He will never give you less than His best.Daylight Meditations is a daily podcast from CFO North America.

John Goetsch - Giving God a Good Account by West Coast Baptist College

             This familiar story in Luke 21 gives us a few things we should take away from it.  First, it is not how much you give, it is the heart with which you give it.  Secondly, did that gift you gave cost you anything?  In other words, was it something that you sacrificed or gave up to give? Thirdly, we see that the system was set up so that it literally trumpeted the amount someone was giving as the money flowed down the tube making noise.  I still believe the Bible teaches that we should give God at least 10% of everything we have including our time and abilities.  So, I guess the question is what do we do with our time, abilities, and money?  Are we giving God all that we should because we love Him and want to honor and serve Him with all that we have? If not, why not? Luke 21:1-4 And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. 3 So He said, "Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; 4 "for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had."     Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?              John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today.               “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”  -John 8:32             Our mission is to spread the gospel and to go to the least of these with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ; We reach out to those the World has forgotten.              hisloveministries.podbean.com #HLMSocial hisloveministries.net https://www.instagram.com/hisloveministries1/?hl=en His Love Ministries on Itunes Don't go for all the gusto you can get, go for all the God (Jesus Christ) you can get.

A Series on the Psalms: November 2, 2025

Jude closes his letter with a doxology, a word of praise. Giving God praise has more to do with who He is than what is going on around us. When we know who God is, we are able to worship and give Him the praise He is worthy of. We were made to know and enjoy God, and worship is due to Him at all times. In Jude 24–25, we see that God is able to save us, protect us, and present us. He is our Savior, the one who rescues us from danger and delivers us from wrath. Once He saves us, we are His forever. He is able to keep us from falling and to present us blameless and spotless in His presence. Jesus has done the work for us. Our response is to confess, believe, repent, and give all glory to the One who is able.

A Life Pleasing to God - Giving God Praise and Glorification - Britt McCarter by The Church of Christ Wheeler Area

In this episode of The Church Planting Podcast, host Greg Nettle talks with Joey Odom about the intersection of faith, technology, and personal health. Joey—co-founder of ReclaimWell—explains how constant proximity to our phones is reshaping our relationships, productivity, and even our spiritual lives. They discuss the concept of "digital thorns" — how smartphones, though powerful tools for discipleship and ministry, can choke out meaningful relationships and intimacy with God. Joey shares practical ways to reclaim time and attention, including simple steps like five minutes a day away from your phone, accountability within small groups, and setting "phone-free" zones for family or worship. Greg and Joey also explore how church leaders can model digital wellness within their teams using ReclaimWell, an app that helps track intentional time spent away from devices. The conversation closes with encouragement for leaders to lead by example, prioritize presence, and put down their phones—literally—to restore focus and relational depth.   Podcast Contents: 00:00 – 01:10 | Introduction: Greg Nettle welcomes Joey Odom and sets up the topic of technology and faith. 01:10 – 02:30 | The rise of digital discipleship—and the problem of "digital thorns." 02:30 – 06:00 | How our relationship with phones mirrors childhood attachments and impacts relationships. 06:00 – 08:45 | Practical steps to break constant proximity and reshape habits. 08:45 – 11:00 | Building healthy phone boundaries in families and small groups. 11:00 – 13:30 | Swapping phones, redefining dependence, and Jesus' parable of the thorns. 13:30 – 17:00 | Introducing ReclaimWell—a wellness and productivity tool for digital balance. 17:00 – 21:00 | How the app works: habit loops, team leaderboards, and tracking intentional time away. 21:00 – 23:00 | The power of "Let me put down my phone" and valuing relationships. 23:00 – 25:00 | Giving God the first fruits of your day—disconnecting to reconnect spiritually. 25:00 – 28:45 | How churches can adopt ReclaimWell and lead staff in digital wellness. 28:45 – 29:05 | Closing thoughts and call to action: visit reclaimwell.com.

What gets your attention first thing in the morning? I've been reminded lately how important it is to give God the “first fruits” of my day - before the to-do list, before the noise, before the distractions. Just a few quiet moments with Him changes everything.

When a person becomes a Christian, there's a deep sense of relief; you're made right with God, forgiven of every sin, and promised heaven. That's absolutely amazing news for anyone who puts their faith in Jesus Christ alone! But believing is just the beginning of God's plan for us. Too often people stop there, without realizing that God wants our believing to lead to becoming all He's designed us to be. In this series, From Believing to Becoming, we'll look at the simple yet life-changing practices that help us grow as followers of Jesus, guided by the Lakeshore purposes (5 G's) of Grace, Growth, Groups, Gifts, and Giving to God.

In our world, math is simple: give money away, and youll have less. But in Gods economy, the numbers work differently. Generosity doesn't subtract it multiplies. This series is all about discovering the blessing that comes fromfaithful generosity. When we trust God with our finances and choose to give, we open the door to His provision, peace, and abundance. It may not make sense on paper, butGod Mathalways adds up. Join us as we explore what it means to be generous Christians and to see how God transforms giving into growth!

When is the last time you gave a gift to God?

Pastor Lindsay's sermon begins with two illustrations—a child questioning the need for sleep and a phone plugged into the wrong charger—to show how rest and connection are vital to life. Just as our bodies need rest to be restored, our souls need worship to be spiritually renewed. The message connects to the church's five spiritual practices—Gather, Get Connected, Grow, Go, and Give—rooted in Acts 2:42–47. This sermon focuses on Gathering, or worshiping God. The biblical concept of First Fruits teaches that God deserves our first and best—our time, devotion, and resources. Worship means placing God above everything else and adoring Him for who He is. Psalm 103 gives reasons to worship: God forgives, heals, saves, loves, and sustains us endlessly. True worship is not passive attendance but offering our whole being—our thoughts, emotions, doubts, and gratitude—to God. Worship isn't about what we get out of it, but about honoring God because He is worthy. Yet, as a side benefit, worship restores our spirit, just as sleep restores the body. The sermon shares powerful examples of worship's impact—from personal experiences of deep connection during services to stories of global believers finding joy in worship despite hardship. Ultimately, worship honors God and transforms us. It reminds us of God's goodness, recenters our hearts, and renews our spiritual strength. The invitation closes by urging everyone to “praise the Lord and forget not all His benefits,” finding rest and restoration in Him. fmhouston.com

Title: The Assurance of Things Hoped ForSpeaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Hebrews 11:4–7Episode Overview:In this message from Hebrews 11:4–7, we are reminded that the only way to please God is by faith. Abel, Enoch, and Noah each reveal how genuine belief shapes our lives: offering our first and best to God, walking with Him as our greatest reward, and obeying His Word even when it seems unreasonable. Before any doing comes believing—the foundation of our confidence is in Christ's finished work. And yet, by faith, we can live in ways that bring joy to the heart of our Father.Key Highlights:• Faith before works: Why Hebrews insists that believing precedes doing.• Abel's offering: Giving God our first and best because He is worthy.• Enoch's walk: Communion with God as the greatest reward.• Noah's obedience: Trusting God's Word even when it defies human reasoning.• Life application: How faith changes our posture toward God's promises and commands.Call to Action:Ask yourself today: Am I living more like Abel or Cain? Am I treating God as first and best, walking daily with Him, and submitting to His Word? Take a step of faith this week—whether through generosity, intentional time with God, or obedience to His Word—and delight in knowing that by faith, your Father in heaven is pleased.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org
