He is the author of God of Our Understanding: Jewish Spirituality and Recovery from Addiction and the creator of “The Map of Tanya.”Now, he joins us to answer eighteen questions with Rabbi Dr. Benji Levy on Jewish mysticism including how it can revive the Jewish People, the perfectibility of the physical world, and seeing children as souls. Here are our questions: What is Jewish mysticism?How were you introduced to Jewish mysticism?In an ideal world, would all Jews be mystics?What do you think of when you think of God?What is the purpose of the Jewish people?How does prayer work?What is the goal of Torah study?Does Jewish mysticism view men and women the same?Should Judaism be hard or easy?Why did God create the world? Can humans do something that is against God's will?What do you think of when you think about Moshiach?Is the State of Israel part of the final redemption?What is the greatest challenge facing the world today?How has modernity changed Jewish mysticism?What differentiates Jewish mysticism from the mysticism of other religions? Does one need to be religious to study Jewish mysticism?Can mysticism be dangerous?How has Jewish mysticism affected your relationships with yourself and with others?What is a Jewish teaching that you always take with you?

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Read more about Project23 and partner with us as we teach every verse of the Bible on video. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 1:22-25. Some people miss God's answer because it doesn't look like the answer they wanted. The Jews wanted signs — power on full display. The Greeks wanted wisdom — arguments polished like marble. Everyone wanted something impressive. But God didn't send a performer or a philosopher. He sent a crucified Savior. Not what they asked for… but God gave something better. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. — 1 Corinthians 1:22–25 The cross offended the Jews because it looked too weak. It confused the Greeks because it sounded too foolish. But God wasn't trying to meet their expectations. He was trying to save their souls. What the world thought was weak was actually the strongest thing God ever did. What the world thought was nonsense was actually the smartest plan ever made. And that's the point Paul is driving home: When people demand what they want, God often gives what they need. And what He gives is always better. You don't always get the miracle you ask for. You don't always get the explanation you crave. You don't always get the clarity you think would settle your heart. But God is not short-changing you. God gave something better — and He still does. He gives a Savior who breaks sin, not just symptoms. A cross that delivers, not just dazzles. A gospel that transforms, not just entertains. What people expected would've helped for a moment. What God provided changes eternity. DO THIS: Say this today: "Christ is the power and wisdom I need." ASK THIS: Where have you wanted God to work your way instead of His way? What expectations of God do you need to surrender today? When has God given you something better than what you asked for? PRAY THIS: Jesus, You are the wisdom and power of God. Help me trust Your plan even when it doesn't match my expectations. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Jesus Paid It All"

In this message, we explore how God's grace doesn't wait for perfection before placing gifts in our hands. Scripture reminds us that every believer has been intentionally equipped to build the Church, not as spectators, but as active participants. We must move beyond self-doubt and fear, learn to steward what God has given us with "consecration", humility, and dependence on Him. Rather than burying our gifts, we are called to use them in community, trusting that the same grace that gave them will also sustain us as we grow!

This is not the update I expected to share. What began as a serious accident turned into something far more significant — something I now believe God allowed for a reason. God has spoken to my wife and I through this trial, and I believe it's not just for me. Read transcript

Hey CBJ Family, Have you ever wondered, "God, am I missing something?" Even when you pray daily...even when you're doing "all the right things"...the vision feels stuck.  You are not alone--and this episode is for you. In today's conversation, we're reframing vision through a biblical lens--not as something you chase, but as something God is forming within you. This isn't about vision boards or hype. It's about clarity, obedience, patience, and trusting God's timing when nothing seems to be moving. Rooted in Habakkuk 2:2-3, Proverbs 16:3, Psalm 127:1, and more, we unpack what it really means to wait well- without quitting, striving, or losing faith.  In this epsiode you'll learn: Why vision is about who God is shaping you to become, not just what you want How to tell if you're vision is aligned with God's will Why silence from God doesn't mean absence - it often means development What to do when you've been praying over the same vision long after excitemnt fades You'll hear this powerful truth: "If God gave you the vision quickly, He may grow you slowly so you can carry  it." We close with clear takeaways and a simple activation exercsie you can do today- not to rush the process, but to anchor yourself in peace, prayer, and trust. Press play if you're ready to: Stop second guessing Trust God's timing Stay faithful in the waiting Walk forward with peace, not panic Watch the show on YouTube or on audio, and subscribe so you never miss a week with us!

In this episode, Pastor Dan Smail and Pastor Wendy Farone are joined by Andre Francois, who has been the chair of the Stewardship Committee for many years.

It's an encouraging, focused conversation that reminds you that your gifts were meant to be used. 

Returning To The Word God Gave Us.. | The Oil Was On THIS | The Basement #1

Big Idea: Made new in Christ, we are all ambassadors of His reconciliation.    Must I evangelize?  1. Yes, God has made you new (v.17)  2. Yes, God Gave you a ministry (v.18-19) 3. Yes, God appeals through you (v.20-21)   Discussion Questions: 1. What stands out about what God does in reconciliation (who acts first, what He provides, what He doesn't count), and why does that matter for your confidence? 2. What is “the message of reconciliation,” especially v.21 (the great exchange)?  3. Where are you tempted to be vague/quiet about Jesus (an “ambassador with no appeal”)? What would faithful clarity and love look like this week? 4. Who is one person God has put in your life to “implore…be reconciled to God”?   

This video details a personal spiritual journey, starting with a vision received after repentance, followed by the mission of World Ministries International, and concluding with a discussion on discerning spiritual experiences using Paul's encounter with the third heaven.

At Christmas, Christians often quote Isaiah 7:14—“the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son”—but few pause to ask what that verse meant for King Ahaz before it pointed to Christ. In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer walks through the political and spiritual crisis facing Judah, the rising Assyrian threat, and Ahaz’s refusal to ask God for a sign. James unpacks why God answered with something that seemed wildly inadequate in the face of war: a child. He explores how this sign functioned as both judgment and hope, how the language of “young woman” and “virgin” works in Hebrew and Greek, and why Matthew is not ripping Isaiah 7:14 out of context when he applies it to Jesus. Along the way, you’ll see how prophetic patterns ripple across Scripture, how our expectations of power clash with God’s humble ways, and how the virgin birth reveals a Savior who comes not with military might, but with a presence that judges and delivers. Perfect for thoughtful Christians wanting to go deeper this Christmas. Subscribe to our YouTube channel
