There are what we call human battles, but there are also called Holy Battles -- battles that involve the Kingdom of God. Whether it's a human or Holy battle, anger, anguish, anxiety, and audacity or boldness are involved. However, only Holy Battles can bring us joy, peace, and fulfillment. Learn more from Ps. Rafy Panlilio on the 17th installment of our A Church After God's Own Heart series, "After God's War Part 3."
This is the second part of our two-part series on the Crusades. For Part One, click here.A brutal slaughter at the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem marked the end of the first crusade. The Crusaders had recaptured Jerusalem and the Holy Lands. They had regained control and care of The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, probably medieval Christianity’s most sacred site, built over what was believed to be Jesus’ empty tomb. Their job was done and most of the crusaders packed up and went home, bolstered in their belief that God had been with them and seized their victory. Job done! So, why the need for a 2nd Crusade? Or a 3rd, 4th or 5th for that matter? LINKS This episode is brought to you by Zondervan's new book Bullies and Saints: An Honest Look at the Good and Evil of Christian History by John Dickson.

This is the first of a two part episode on The Crusades. Over nine hundred years after the launch of the first Crusade, world leaders are still invoking their memory to explain ongoing conflict.

Pastor Dave Wilcoxson's sermon from October 7, 2018 entitled: "God's War, God's Weapons".
Kameron Hurley, author of The Stars Are Legion, The Geek Feminist Revolution, God's War, and many other epic books, joins me to talk about female warriors — and their frequent erasure from our narratives. Is it "realistic" to write about badass female fighters? What can we learn about the roles of women in war, and in society at large, by looking at history, cultures throughout the world, and the very real women who surround us in our everyday lives? All this and more in today's episode. --- If you haven't read Kameron's award-winning essay, "We Have Always Fought", you need to! Here's the link: http://aidanmoher.com/blog/featured-article/2013/05/we-have-always-fought-challenging-the-women-cattle-and-slaves-narrative-by-kameron-hurley/ --- Keep up with Kameron via her newsletter: http://www.kameronhurley.com/newsletter/ Or on Twitter: https://twitter.com/KameronHurley --- I have a poetry book coming out!
