This is the fourth live Q&A for The Christ Empire Couldn't Keep, and this week we're in the Americas with Bartolomé de las Casas — Joerg's pick over Martin Luther for the Reformation-era chapter, and the hinge of the whole course. Here's why. Las Casas owned an encomienda. He had Native people working for him. He was, in Joerg's words, a slave driver. Then he woke up, gave the land away, freed the people, and spent the rest of his life arguing against the conquest. Gustavo Gutiérrez read him as a precursor to liberation theology, and when Joerg got into the sources, he thought: not so fast. Because what Las Casas actually represents is the pivot from empire hard to empire soft — from fire and sword to kindness and charity, which is nicer, preferable, and still empire. The whole session is about learning to tell soft empire from the way of Christ when they look almost identical. We got the charity/advocacy/solidarity distinction, the flip on anthropology (not others are like us but what if I were like them), why converting from one God to another is harder than converting from no God at all, why land back needs labor back alongside it, and Joerg's answer to the flag-wrapped warrior Christ, which is two words long. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Dr. Joerg Rieger is the Distinguished Professor of Theology and the Cal Turner Chancellor's Chair of Wesleyan Studies at Vanderbilt University and founding director of the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice. For three decades, he has worked to bring together theology and the struggles for justice and liberation that mark our age. His work addresses relations of theology and public life, reflecting on the misuse of power in religion, politics, and economics. His interest is in movements that bring about change and in the positive contributions of religion and theology. His constructive work in theology draws on a wide range of historical and contemporary traditions, with a concern for manifestations of the divine in the pressures of everyday life. Several of his 24 authored and edited books address the topics of this course, including No Rising Tide: Theology, Economics, and the Future; Unified We Are a Force: How Faith and Labor Can Overcome America's Inequalities (with Rosemarie Henkel-Rieger); and Faith, Class, and Labor: Intersectional Approaches in a Global Context (with Jin Young Choi). www.joergrieger.com Previous Episodes w/ Joerg Anselm's God Can't Just Forgive: Joerg Rieger on Why That's Good News, Not Cruelty Who Owns the Creed?

08-05-2026 Pastor Tyler Stevison "God Can" WED 7PM

Send us Fan MailThere are some questions that reveal just how much pain a person is carrying.Not because the question is wrong, but because of what it takes to finally ask it out loud.What does it mean when someone has been sitting alone with this kind of weight — wondering, in their darkest moments, not just whether life is worth living, but whether God still wants them at all?In this episode of Just Nona, I am answering a heart question from Jessalyn, who is living with severe spine issues, depression, anxiety, and a recurrence of addiction — and is asking one of the most honest questions a person can bring to God:Can a struggle with addiction and suicidal thoughts be forgiven?Or am I not going to heaven?Before anything else — if you are struggling with thoughts of ending your life right now, please reach out. Call or text 988. Your life matters. And you do not have to carry this alone.This is not a theological lecture.It is a pastoral conversation about what grace actually covers — and what it does not require of you before it applies.We talk about:• Why chronic physical pain can affect the brain, mood, sleep, and emotional regulation• Why depression, anxiety, and addiction are not simply moral failures• The lie that God's acceptance is conditional on performance• What Romans 8:38–39 says about whether anything can separate you from God's love• The difference between salvation and sanctification• Why suicidal thoughts are not proof that you want to die, but often proof that you want pain to stop• Why needing help is not a failure of faith• The practical support someone may need when carrying addiction, depression, chronic pain, or suicidal thoughtsYou are not too far gone.You were never too far gone.Grace was not designed for the person who has it all together. It was designed for the person who knows they need Jesus right now.Order my books at:https://www.nonajones.com/booksIf you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of self-harm or suicide, please reach out immediately.

Do you believe God? Not simply, do you believe that God exists? But do you believe Him? Do you trust His word, His promises, and His love? Every one of us struggles to trust God. We wonder whether His ways really lead to joy. We wrestle with His Word when it confronts our deepest desires and feelings. We question whether grace really is enough for our salvation. And when suffering or disappointment comes, we wonder whether God truly loves us. In Matthew 4, Jesus faces Satan's temptation in the wilderness. Beneath every temptation lies the same accusation against God: Can you really trust Him? In this message, Pastor Scott Abel explores what biblical faithfulness really means, why trusting God is one of the greatest struggles of the Christian life, and how the cross of Jesus Christ gives us the confidence to believe God's love even when our feelings, our circumstances, or the world around us tell a different story.

God Can't Heal The Pretend Version Of You! This special LIVE episode of the Everyday Joy Podcast is all about one powerful truth: God isn’t waiting for the polished version of you, He’s inviting the real you. Through raw, honest conversation, we unpack what it truly means to be vulnerable with God. Why do we avoid it? What are we afraid of? And how does real healing actually begin? From personal stories of anger, heartbreak, and long seasons of pain… to moments of breakthrough, freedom, and encountering the love of God—this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to pretend with Him. If you’ve ever felt like you had to “clean yourself up” before coming to God, this conversation will shift your perspective. Because the truth is:You can’t heal what you won’t bring into the light. And when you do?That’s where transformation begins. Q&A Episodes Dropping Later This Week — stay tuned

Okay, I genuinely don't know how many times Tom Oord has been on this podcasttwenty plus times, but this one felt different, because Tom has officially done the thing: he wrote a Systematic Theology of Love, Volume One, which is also his 50th book, which means his wife has had to endure approximately 50 different versions of "another love book." We dug into what makes this project unusual — a progressive, open relational systematic theology organized around love as its orienting concept, built on abductive reasoning rather than deductive certainty, which turns out to matter a lot when the thing you're centering is inherently vulnerable, risky, and relational. Tom walked us through his claim that God is a universal spirit who is genuinely material without having a localized body, why he's done with creatio ex nihilo and what his very Latin replacement actually means, the distinction between animate organisms and inanimate aggregates (rocks, it turns out, are great for explaining panpsychism), and why he's invented a new word — Gino-Theology — to talk about God as a dynamic becoming rather than a static being. We also covered why he thinks Whitehead solved both the problem of evil and the problem of good, what he's planning for Volume Two around Christology and divine hiddenness, and ended up somewhere around the enchantment of the universe. The chat had 140 people. Tom's substack has chapters. And Volume Two starts in the fall — get in early. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube⁠ ⁠Join 600+ Listeners, 30 theologians, & 30 God-Pods at Theology Beer Camp 2026 this October 8-10 in Kansas City!⁠ ⁠⁠UPCOMING ONLINE CLASS - Theology for Troublemakers: Christian Social Ethics from the Margins⁠⁠⁠ The injustices we face are immense — but they are not unique. Previous generations confronted the same powers with theological conviction and strategic brilliance. The question is whether we'll learn from them. This 6-week online course, led by Dr. Gary Dorrien and Dr. Aaron Stauffer, recovers the radical tradition of Christian social ethics — from Reverdy Ransom and Reinhold Niebuhr to James Cone and the Welfare Rights Movement — and asks what faithfulness demands of us right now. Weekly lectures, live Q&A conversations, guest lecturers, and an online community included.

Exhaustion. We've all felt it. And honestly, we're all tired of it. But what if the reason we're exhausted… is because we're trying to carry the things that God never asked us to hold? We live in a world that glorifies constant motion… Always doing. Always striving. Always pushing. But what if true strength… is found in knowing when to stop? In Jeremiah 17, God gives us a powerful picture— One life, dry and empty…Another, like a tree planted by the waters…Strong. Steady. Fruitful. What made the difference? Trust. Not just in what God CAN do… But in WHO He is. Because sometimes the greatest act of faith… is not working harder— …it's resting in Him. This Sunday, we begin a new series: “Faithfully Trusting, & Trusting in His Faithfulness” Part 1: “Fruitfulness in Faithfulness” We're going to discover how real FAITH produces real FRUIT— And why honoring God, even in rest, positions your life for His provision. Because when you simply trust in the Lord… you won't just survive— you'll flourish.

"I knew the Bible like the back of my hand, but I still felt completely disconnected from God."Jenny Fein gave up everything—her career, her home, her entire life—to pursue God at Bible college. She followed every rule, checked every box, served tirelessly... and yet she couldn't hear God the way others could.After years of frustration, she finally discovered what was blocking her connection: hidden anger toward God that she didn't even know existed.In this powerful conversation, you'll discover:→ Why doing "all the right things" can actually keep you from intimacy with God→ The subtle lie that makes you believe God is disappointed in you→ How unknown anger creates an invisible wall between you and God's voice→ Why emotional honesty (not perfection) is the key to breakthrough→ The difference between religion and relationship that changes everything→ How Jenny went from 10+ failed healing sessions to a life-changing vision with GodThis isn't another "try harder" message. This is about uncovering the hidden beliefs that sabotage your connection with God—beliefs you may not even know you have.Jenny's story reveals a pattern I've seen with hundreds of clients: we're mad at God for not showing up the way we expected, but we've been taught that anger at God is unacceptable—so we bury it, and it blocks everything.

Does the Bible clearly teach that those who did in their sin are tormented for all eternity in the lake of fire? Or does it suggest that there is an end to God's wrath against sinners? While the church has long held the former position, in late 2025, Kirk Cameron posted a video where he genuinely questions the doctrine of eternal judgment, or, as those who hold to conditional immortality like to call it, eternal conscious torment. This view, often called annihilationism, redefines Biblical death and eternal torment for a period of judgment ending in annihilation. While we will deal with many of the verses that they use in this episode, it is worth first considering how changes to eternal judgment affects all of theology. Those who argue for conditional immortality often act like their view does not impact other doctrines. So here's the question: Are they correct?Thumbnail image by Ivan Vtorov under CC BY-SA 3.0.

in this recording i wanted to hit on forgiveness. because in reality, the 2 biggest destroyers of marriages and all relationships, is selfishness and unforgiveness. if those 2 things stayed in my heart, or my wife's , we woulda been toast a long time ago. Mercy is one of the main themes, and an essence of the Christian life, because nobody is perfect. we all make mistakes. the key is to truly forgive to let your heart be free, and to let relationships, marriages, brotherhoods, parent child connections and so forth; BE RESTORED, HEALED, MENDED, FIXED. GOD CAN take a broken thing and make it whole. GOD can take a shattered thing and put it back together. TRUST ME. MY MARRIAGE, MY MIND , HEART… shoot my whole life…. HAS ALL BEEN PUT BACK IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE BECAUSE OF HIM!!! TRUST GOD to make all things right in HIS TIMe. DO YOUR PART, and let GOD do the rest!

We know God CAN heal. And we have spent some time in this series looking at the scriptural evidence for God's WILL to heal. But that is only one side of the coin. The other important factor, specifically mentioned in many of the healing miracles of Jesus, is the faith of the person needing healing. What does faith for healing look like, and how big a part does it play in the whole process? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Part two of the "Healing, Health, and Wholeness" series. Pastor Richard continues the series showing that as we are TRUSTING the Lord for HEALING, that it usually isn't INSTANTANEOUS. Most often, it's a PROCESS. GOD CAN, GOD WANTS TO, and GOD WILL, but we have to have PATIENCE and TRUST GOD'S PROCESS.

We're living at a time of tremendous INSTABILITY and UNCERTAINTY. And, when facing the unknown, we tend to respond with fear and with faith. Fear says that we're not sure of the outcome, but we have a feeling it's going to be bad. Faith says that we're not sure of the outcome, but that we know God is with us and for us and will take care of us. So we (simply) take another step. Another breath. In this message, Max Vanderpool spells out why God's people have ALWAYS had a hard time trusting God - and why, despite how we might feel internally - God CAN be trusted.

Two renowned theologians go head-to-head in a rigorous, respectful debate on one of the most discussed passages in Scripture—**John 1:1–18**.

In this episode of Purposely Catholic, Khalil sits down with Kevin Matthews, former Chicago radio legend turned author and storyteller, to dive into his powerful journey of faith. After an unexpected encounter with a broken statue of the Blessed Mother, Kevin's life took a turn he never saw coming. His story, told in his book Broken Mary: A Journey of Hope and the brand new documentary Broken Mary: The Kevin Matthews Story, reveals how God can use even the most shattered moments to rebuild our hearts and renew our purpose.Chapters:00:00 Intro01:36 Who is Kevin Matthews?03:40 Empty but Full Now!06:55 The Story of the Broken Mary Statue17:30 The Conversion Moment29:10 God Can't be Bought32:10 A Hospital for the Broken42:00 Broken Mary the Documentary49:50 Offering Everyday to God56:30 Purposely Pop Quiz: Rapid Fire59:50 Closing and Prayer✴️

I Can't, God Can, So Let Him 3-30-25 Fr. Blood

In today's sermon, Pastor Andrew Coleman preaches on select passages from Scripture which show us God's amazing generosity. We see that God's love means that God generously gives of himself to us. We also see that God CAN give all because he made all and owns all. God's amazing love displayed through his generosity is apparent from eternity past into present time and will continue into eternity future (see Sermon Notes for Scripture passages). Revelation 21:6 sums up the beauty and hope of God's loving generosity: "And he said to me, 'It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.'

On this episode Josh has his 13 year old son Weldon join us and they even sing a song together. A Doyle Lawson classic goepl song called “God Can”.We then have a fun chat with bluegrass legend Kevin Prater. In 1998, Kevin was asked to audition as mandolin player and vocalist for The James King Band. That audition led to a 12 career that would take him around the world, entertaining in 24 Countries and 49 States. They recorded two, "Album of the Year" a "Song of the Year" and a "Recorded Event Of The Year" award winning projects. Kevin has played the Grand Ole Opry many times with James King Band and Melvin Goins and Wendy Mountain. Upon leaving The James King Band Kevin toured with Mark Phillips and Third Generation, and spent three years with The Bluegrass Brothers, during which he earned a nomination for "Banjo Player of the Year".

Have you ever felt so disconnected in your marriage that you wondered if it was worth fighting for? Kevin found himself in that very place—emotionally, spiritually, and physically distant from his wife. Harshness and criticism seemed to cloud their every interaction, leaving him discouraged and ready to give up. He felt his energy was drained and was unmotivated in many aspects of life.  He took the courage to sign up and speak with Dana on a Clarity Call, he felt it gave him insights into himself and helped him discover what was at the root of their disconnection. He felt he wasn't the role model he'd want to be for his children. He had allowed his marriage to be transactional which he knew wasn't what God designed marriage to be. That's when he decided he wasn't giving his family all that he should and he signed up for the men's program. Through this journey, Kevin began to implement the daily gratitudes—a practice that sparked a profound shift in his mindset. He was encouraged through his Coaching Calls to stand firm as the spiritual leader he longed to be for his family, even amidst resistance. He finally feels he is spiritually leading his family. We are so proud of Kevin and know that the same change he saw in his marriage can happen with yours. As he shared with us, where there is breath, there is hope. We believe this podcast will encourage you that God CAN heal this marriage. He may be calling you to be the very one who does it, by changing yourself.    Love,   Belah & Team   PS -  If you are interested in a Clarity Call and speaking with one of our advisors as Kevin did, we would love to talk with you: delightyourmarriage.com/cc   PPS - Here a quote from a (different) recent graduate: “Some of my biggest celebrations: Our relationship, our discussions have become much more peaceful, easygoing and playful than before!... She has expressed often how she likes the changes she sees in me… I have a renewed hope that things can get better. I now have a clearer vision of my role as a husband and how things can and should be. I have grown in confidence by learning what is the path to get there. I understand my wife so much better now and realize that contrary to what I thought before, she is not broken!... One change that I think is the most telling of how the DYM program has impacted our lives: Prior to the program we had been sleeping in separate rooms for years. I am thankful to say that I am back in our marriage bed, physically, emotionally – for good now!”

"Even the best things have a finish line. Good things become bad things when we make good things our God. Sports//career//anything that isn't God will eventually end, but God? Is forever." former US National Soccer Team Member Jaelene Daniels Today we have the HONOR of having my new friend former US National Soccer Team Member + Professional Soccer player Jalene Daniels on the pod! In this episode we talk all things: - how to have faith that God CAN do miracles, but not to put your faith in how you "think" God's going to do something - the anxiety behind experiencing injuries/setbacks in a career/sport - the importance of making faith-oriented friends to grow your faith - loving someone well doesn't always look like pleasing them I pray this blesses you friend!

Becky sits down with Erin, one of the podcast copy editors, and each of their husband's, Richard and Justin, to talk about what they have learned about how the Betrayer can best support the Betrayed.  After multiple anonymous questions about this topic, we wanted to make sure we talked about it!   They group discusses when they realized support was needed for the betrayed, what things they tried that helped, and even a few things that didn't help.  They also share some resources and additional thoughts from various friends who have been on this journey.  Richard shares that “Sometimes we are purchasing a million dollar marriage a dollar at a time.”  Justin reminds listeners that, “I can't fix it, God Can. But there are ways I can support her in her efforts to work with God to find healing”.  We hope you enjoy this very powerful and vulnerable episode.   Show notes: For more episodes and resources, please visit https://riseuprestored.com/ And join us online at Rise Up Restored on Instagram and Facebook.   Have questions?  Send them to becky@riseuprestored.com

"girl, you CAN" and other messaging of empowerment and motivation, and on the one hand, it's wonderful, it's good and we all need a pep talk from time to time. But there's also. a culture of "self love" which has evolved into self worship. In today's episode Author Becky Kiser shares how the premise of her book is meant to empower women, yet also teach them that their weaknesses are indeed their super power, and that when they can't GOD CAN. The whole reason we need Jesus is because WE CAN'T in so many ways... and that's ok. We also address: Self love/Self worship vs. Loving yourself What to do when we know God Can, but God Doesn't? How surrender is something more readily embraced after we have moved through the pain of when we can't, and realize, God can, but if he doesn't, we still know we're going to be ok. And so much more! ABOUT BECKY: Becky is a Speaker, Podcast Host, Ministry Leader, Life Coach, and Cheerleader of Women.
