The CEO was hurting employees with his sharp tongue. No one dared confront him. Everyone was afraid of him, including Gene. But one day the CEO berated a new employee, reducing her to tears. When Gene saw how everyone in the room stayed silent, he spoke up. “I told him the way he was treating people was wrong,” Gene recalls. “He was astonished; it was the first time someone stood up to him. He didn’t change, but I’m glad I spoke up.” Scripture tells us of another man who stood up to a challenge many were afraid of. Shammah, a military warrior of David, came from difficult circumstances (see 1 Samuel 22:1-2), but God used him to defeat the Philistines, a formidable enemy of the Israelites. “When the Philistines banded together at . . . a field full of lentils, Israel’s troops fled from them” (2 Samuel 23:11). Only Shammah had the courage to defend Israel’s food supply. Being the lone man against the Philistine army meant death, but Shammah “took his stand in the middle of the field. He defended it” (v. 12). God helped Shammah defeat the Philistines (v. 12). He may have been the only Israelite in the field, but he wasn’t alone－God was with him, giving him great victory that day. There may be times when we’re called to stand up to a challenge that everyone else is avoiding. Like Shammah, let’s take our stand, relying on God’s presence and help.

Send us Fan MailIs it okay to ask God for favor—not only His favor, but favor with other people?Maybe you're walking into an important meeting, interviewing for a job, trying to sell a house, having a difficult conversation, launching something new, or waiting for someone else's decision to open a door.Can you actually pray, “God, would You give me favor with this person?”In this episode of Small Beginnings with Sarah Thurman Price, Sarah looks at what Scripture teaches about favor through the lives of Nehemiah, Joseph, Daniel, Esther, and even Jesus.Again and again, we see God working through people to accomplish His purposes. Nehemiah needed the king to say yes. Esther needed the king to extend the scepter. Joseph was granted favor with the prison warden. Daniel received favor and compassion from an official.But there's an important distinction: the person was never the source. God was.We'll talk about what it means to ask God for favor without trying to manipulate an outcome, why God's favor doesn't always look like an open door, and how even a “no” can sometimes be His protection.If you're facing a situation that feels dependent on someone else's response, this episode is an invitation to remember who ultimately holds the outcome.You can ask God to go before you.You can ask Him to prepare hearts.You can ask Him to establish the work of your hands.And yes—you can ask Him to give you favor with people.“May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us.” — Psalm 90:17In this episode:Is it biblical to pray for favor with another person?What Nehemiah teaches us about asking God for favorHow God gave Daniel, Joseph, and Esther favor with peopleThe difference between favor and popularityWhy favor doesn't mean every door will openHow to pray for favor while surrendering the outcome to GodRemembering that people may be the vessel—but God is the sourceKey Scriptures:Nehemiah 1:11Daniel 1:9Genesis 39:21Esther 5:1–2Luke 2:52Psalm 90:17A truth to carry with you this week:People may be the vessel through which favor comes—but God is the source.

Saturday is review day on The Daily Promise. Every Saturday, we review the promises of the week so we can allow them to go deep into our hearts and lives. Here are the promises we covered this week. Philippians 4:11 – God Promises Contentment. Hebrews 10:23 – Stand on God's Promises. Psalm 16:11 – The Secret to Joy. 1 Corinthians 15:22 – I Am Made Alive in Christ. Psalm 37:4 – God Gives the True Desires of Your Heart.

Today's Promise: Psalm 37:4 What does it really mean when the Bible says that God will give you the desires of your heart? At first glance, this promise can sound like a blank check from heaven. Just delight yourself in God, and He will give you whatever you want. But there is something much deeper happening in this promise.   When you delight in the Lord, your heart begins to change. Your focus shifts from what you want God to give you to who God is. You begin to trust Him as your source and provider. And as you trust Him, your desires begin to line up with His desires.   The things we think will make us happy, like more money, a new house, a better job, or more possessions, can never satisfy the deepest desires of our hearts. True peace, joy, meaning, love, and fulfillment are found in our relationship with God.

In the Bible we see God working through people in various ways and at various times. That did not stop when the Bible was complete. The Lord is still working today, and you are a part of it!

Send us Fan MailYou can work hard, build skill, and do all the right “business” things and still feel stuck on one question: how do we actually increase? We take that question head-on and reframe it through a faith-based business lens that is both practical and uncomfortable. Yes, we believe in strategy, consistency, and craft. But we also believe there's a line where hustle turns into pressure, and pressure turns into shortcuts.We break down the principle of increase using the simple picture of planting and watering. Planting is the builder's work: planning, technique, detail, and a blueprint you can repeat. Watering is the quiet discipline of nurture: care, support, and patience while what you built takes root. Together, those are real responsibilities in Christian entrepreneurship and ethical business growth, but they still don't guarantee the outcome we want on our timeline.Then we challenge the scoreboard most people use for business success: acceptance, recognition, titles, authority, and money. What if those aren't the best measures of growth? What if God defines increase by obedience, and what looks “slow” is actually protection from a future collapse? If you've been tempted to cut corners just to make profit, this will reset your process and your priorities.Subscribe, share this with a friend building something honest, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

You can make smart plans and still feel lost when the pressure hits. If you have been asking God for direction about your career, your family, or what you are supposed to do next, this message brings you back to a steady, biblical way to hear and follow God's guidance.We talk about receiving a vision from God that keeps Jesus Christ at the center, then expands into every major area of life: your spiritual life, your vocational life, your family life, and even your social and recreation life. Tony shares a personal timeline of vision and fulfillment starting in 1998, showing how God leads step by step over years, not just in one big moment. The anchor Scripture is John 16:13, where Jesus calls the Holy Spirit the Spirit of Truth who guides us into all truth and reveals what is to come, which connects discernment, wisdom, and long-term direction.From there, we break guidance down into three practical responses: faith, trust, and obedience. Faith keeps you seeking God even when the vision feels impossible. Trust looks like Proverbs 3:5-6 in real life, acknowledging God in all your ways instead of leaning on your own understanding. Obedience turns that inner prompting into action, whether God is telling you to move, to wait, or to take one small step at the right time.If you need clarity for your next decision, listen closely, write the vision down, and make room for the quiet voice of the Holy Spirit. Subscribe for more biblical leadership and life guidance, share this with a friend who needs direction, and leave a review with the area where you are asking God to lead you next.Send Tony a Texthttps://www.seldicompany.com/

What if the grace you're chasing is waiting on the other side of a humbled heart? In this message, Pastor Donnie McClurkin returns to a single line that carries the weight of a life spent in ministry: He giveth more grace. Anchored in James 4:6, the message confronts how easily titles, positions, and recognition can replace true calling, and reminds believers that God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. Drawing from decades of personal testimony, from a season of poverty and cleaning floors to years of walking through health battles and financial breakthrough, the message reveals that grace is far more than favor. It is the supernatural ability to do what could never be accomplished in human strength alone. Every season of obedience, no matter how small or hidden, becomes the seed for what God does next. This is a call to lay down performance and pursue relationship, to trade the pursuit of position for a life postured in humility before God. The more you humble yourself before God, the more grace He gives you to become who He has called you to be.

He emphasizes that for Christians, periods of waiting are not evidence of abandonment, but rather proof of divine preparation (9:02-9:21).Key Themes from Joseph's Life:• God Gives a Promise (13:06 - 24:00): Just as Joseph had dreams of leadership before his trials began, God often reveals a destination before showing the process. The pastor encourages viewers to hold onto God's promises even when the path is difficult.• God Develops Character in the Pit (24:11 - 31:12): The "pit" represents seasons of betrayal, rejection, and confusion. Pastor Rick clarifies that these moments are discipline and preparation, not punishment, meant to remove pride and shape one's character for future influence.• Endurance in Obscurity (31:14 - 44:00): Whether serving in Potiphar's house or prison, Joseph succeeded because the Lord was with him. The message highlights that faithfulness in small, mundane tasks is the prerequisite for greater responsibility.• Full Dependence on God (44:00 - 51:08): Through imprisonment and being forgotten, Joseph learned to rely entirely on God rather than his own circumstances or plans.• The Ultimate Purpose (51:10 - 57:00): Eventually, Joseph is elevated to the right hand of Pharaoh to save his family and the nation. The pastor connects this to the life of Jesus, who also endured suffering to offer salvation to many.Core Takeaway:God never wastes a hurt or a season of waiting. If you are currently in a "pit," a season of waiting, or a difficult job, the message encourages you to change your perspective: God is preparing you for something greater than you can currently imagine.At the end of the service, the pastor invites those who have not accepted Jesus to make that decision (58:55-1:01:13) and shares updates regarding the church's Forge Fury Classic golf tournament (1:01:46-1:03:0:00 Welcome and Announcements0:40 Introduction to the Series: Stories of Struggle3:14 Defining "Don't Waste the Waiting"10:57 The Life of Joseph: A Journey Through Seasons13:04 1.

The church does not exist to showcase our gifts, preferences, or personal vision. It exists to worship Jesus and every gift He gives is meant to serve and build up his body. Teaching from 1 Corinthians 14 and Colossians 1, this message explains why Christian worship brings order rather than confusion, why maturity requires commitment to imperfect people, and why the most gifted members of the church must be willing to go the lowest.Plan Your Visit to SALT Church:https://www.saltchurches.com/Ways to Support the Ministry:https://www.saltchurches.com/givingSubscribe:https://www.instagram.com/saltchurches/Subscribe @saltchurchNC Connect with Parker + Jessi Green:Instagram Parker / https://www.instagram.com/parkerrichardgreen/Instagram Jessi /https://www.instagram.com/jessi.green/Websites https://www.saltchurches.com/https://www.jessi-green.com/https://www.saturateglobal.com/#prayer #bible #biblestudy #saltchurch #revival #parkergreen #jessigreen

Last October, Pastor Wang Lin, one of the leaders in Zion Church in China, was arrested and imprisoned under false charges of "fraud" and "illegal business practices." Sarah Su (Su Ziming in Chinese), wife of Pastor Wang, recounts the day her husband was arrested and the Christian persecution they faced even before he was imprisoned. Sarah will share about her husband's role in Zion Church's leadership and in training other leaders, how the church continues to reach many people despite persecution from the Chinese Communist Party, and recent updates about Pastor Wang's condition in prison. "The moment I married Wang Lin, I have decided to face all this together," Sarah says. "I knew that his mission was to train and disciple more Christians in China…I knew something like [this] would happen one day." You'll hear from Sarah how she continues to face this persecution with courage, faithfully enduring times of worry and loneliness. She will share how she and her husband both are committed to serve the Lord—no matter the cost. Zion Church made international headlines during President Trump's visit to Xi Jinping in Beijing in May and with the release of Zion senior pastor Ezra Jin from prison during America's July 4 celebrations. Sarah thanks God for Jin's release, and says the case against Zion Church continues, with eight church leaders remaining in prison. She asks that we pray for their release, the dismissal of charges, for their physical and spiritual health, and for her and her children, along with family members of the other persecuted Christians from Zion Church. Visit Prisoner Alert to write an encouraging letter to Pastor Wang Lin, and letters to other Christians imprisoned for their faith in Iran, Eritrea, and China.

Sin begins in the heart and distorts every area of life when we insist that our desires are wiser than God's design.

In this Pastor's Choice message, Mark Medley opens with the Aaronic Blessing from Numbers 6 and slows down on one powerful word: shalom. Often translated as “peace,” shalom means far more than a calm feeling or a quiet moment. It points to wholeness, wellbeing, completeness, and the restoring presence of God in every part of life. Mark reminds us that God's heart is not for his people to live spiritually drained, anxious, disconnected, or merely surviving. God wants us healthy.With honesty and pastoral care, Mark names the pressures that wear down the soul: fear, grief, unrealistic expectations, financial stress, painful relationships, temptation, people pleasing, and the exhausting burden of trying to hold life together in our own strength. Our lives can feel like scattered threads—frayed, broken, and disconnected—but shalom is God stepping into the chaos and weaving those threads into something whole and beautiful. Just as Jesus came to his fearful disciples after the resurrection and said, “Peace be with you,” he still speaks restoration, identity, courage, and purpose over his people today.Mark then shares four gifts God gives to keep us healthy in a broken world. The first is the gospel, not merely as the starting point of salvation, but as the daily source of spiritual health. Through Jesus, we are regenerated, justified, accepted, adopted, sanctified, and promised a glorious future. When we forget the gospel, we begin searching for identity, security, approval, and hope in places that can never carry the weight. The good news of Jesus re-anchors the heart in grace.The second gift is Sabbath, the space of health. Sabbath rest breaks our addiction to busyness and teaches us to trust God's sovereignty. It reminds us that our worth is not found in productivity, performance, or control, but in the love of God. The third gift is spiritual disciplines, the tools of health. Scripture, prayer, worship, silence, service, fellowship, and other habits create space to encounter God's daily grace. The fourth gift is the body of Christ, the incarnation of health. We need brothers and sisters who encourage us, pray for us, speak truth in love, and help us grow.Through all four gifts, Mark points us back to Jesus, who is our gospel, our Sabbath rest, our transforming presence, and the head of his body. God gives shalom, and he gives real means to receive it.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

This sermon explores the timeless message of Psalm 23, showing how God gives us lasting peace through His presence, guidance, and faithful care. No matter what challenges or uncertainties we face, we can trust that the Good Shepherd walks with us, provides for our needs, and leads us with wisdom and love. Psalm 23 reminds us that true peace is found not in our circumstances, but in God's constant presence and His promises.

What makes for a lasting foundation?  Although, from our nations founding, blessings have flowed to its citizens in different ways in different times throughout its history because of these beliefs and convictions, there is lasting foundation for life and freedom that runs much deeper than what is enshrined in a countries founding documents and its lasting legacy.  

The pattern that often surprises us most doesn't arrive when we are at our worst. It shows up right when we are at our best.

Series - Presence: Walking With God Every Day - Pastor Russ Atter

Today's Promise: James 1:5 What if the answer you're looking for isn't more information, but God's wisdom? In today's episode, we explore God's promise found in James 1:5: God freely and generously gives wisdom to everyone who asks.   In a world overflowing with knowledge, it's easy to confuse knowing more with living wisely. But God's wisdom helps you make better decisions, recognize opportunities, navigate difficult seasons, and walk confidently in His will.   Whether you're facing a major life decision, dealing with stress, or simply seeking direction for your next step, this episode will encourage you to turn to the One who never withholds wisdom from His children.   You'll also be challenged to declare biblical confessions that will strengthen your faith and remind you that God delights in guiding you. Ask Him today, and trust that He will answer with the wisdom you need.

In this episode, Tim and I discuss how the walk of faith is less about understanding and more about depending. We look at the divine privilege of learning, the two major motivations in life, and the person in the room God is most trying to convince of His love. Toward the end of our conversation, Tim shares a perspective on the Garden of Eden that may reshape the way you think about your own thoughts, struggles, and mindset. Quotes for Notes:“They (children and teens) are not just looking, but they are expecting their needs to be met by their mother and father. And I think the life of faith is God teaching us to do exactly that with Him at all times.”“The only thing that Abraham could understand in that moment is that it doesn't matter what's being asked, what matters is who's asking it and that's enough.”“…the motivation for discipline has nothing to do with your child doing something right, the motivation for discipline is that you are trying to teach your child that you love them.” Links:https://the-iff.com/

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall. — Isaiah 40:29-30 The sovereign Lord of the universe, who does not grow tired or weary, gives strength when we are weak and exhausted. We are subject to many weaknesses. Our strength quickly withers and fades. Our muscles and minds grow weary on the hard journeys of life. Fatigue is an unavoidable reality for us. Even the most dedicated, energetic people have passed through times of discouragement and weariness.From Moses to Elijah and from David to Hezekiah, the Lord's chosen prophets and kings felt weakened at times (see Exodus 3-16; 1 Samuel 19-24; 1 Kings 19; 2 Kings 18-20). We can often feel the same way.But God is the source of our strength. God is our refuge and fortress. The apostle Paul agrees: “I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me” (2 Corinthians 12:9).God is our sustainer, and he renews our strength when we stumble and fall. He forgives our sins and heals our diseases. God keeps us on our feet in the struggles of life. He fights our battles and gives us victory. The Lord gives us our life, and he supplies us the power to live. Only in him can we move forward, despite our weaknesses. We can trust in him. Lord, in our weakness we ask that you renew our strength. Lift us when we are weary, uphold us in every challenge and hardship, and fill us with your sustaining power so that we may find strength and rest in you. Amen.

When God Gives the Unsung a Song by Saylorville Church

As we continue to live in this space of transition in our pastoral leadership Associate Pastor Dr. Jeff Ross looks at the transition from David to Solomon. Both were gifted leaders but gifted in different ways. Their personalities and character were a big part of what made them who they are. Those are intangibles that God used to shape and frame their ministries. They served different times with different needs in Israel's history.

We want a lot of things in life. Some of those are good for us; some aren't. Some align with God's will for us, and some don't. Does God ever allow us to receive what we want, even though we will regret it one day? When we study the account of Israel's first king, Saul, we see what happens when God grants Israel's request to be like other nations and discover how God is faithful and sovereign, working behind the scenes even when his people make choices that don't align with his will.

Pastor Tyler Downing preaches from 1 John 4:7-21 that true Christian love is not something we create on our own. It originates in God, is demonstrated through the sending of His Son, the sacrifice of Christ, and the gift of the Holy Spirit, and is then poured into the lives of believers. As we abide in God's love and rest in the finished work of Christ, we gain confidence before God and are freed from fear, enabling us to love others with a selfless, loyal, and sacrificial love that reflects His heart.
