In Psalm 139, David unveils a breathtaking portrait of a God who is all-knowing, all-present, all-powerful, and all-holy—a God who *knit you together* with purpose and care. Pastor Pencil, stranded on the open ocean off Bonaire with a torn sail, discovered firsthand that God's presence is never passive—He leads, protects, and hears our desperate cries. This message, part of the "Summer in Psalms" series, invites you from wonder to comfort, worship to surrender. Don't miss it!

Where in your life do you feel inadequate, "less than," not good enough? We all have those spots -- and how we respond to them is critical to our ability to live into the fullness of who God calls us to be. In other words, how we respond to our sense of inadequacy is a deep spiritual issue. So this Sunday we'll explore what the scriptures teach about feelings of inadequacy.

May 24, 2026 | God With Us | Pastor Caleb Bryant

This is a great psalm for memory work and for sharing the truth about God.

God is with you everyday.

What happens when God feels distant? In this conversation from the God With Us series, we explore Psalm 34 and the reminder that even when we feel far from God, God is still near. We talk about the distances created by shame, disappointment, grief, and division—and how God meets us in our brokenhearted places with love, grace, and presence.

God is with you everyday.

We conclude our series by exploring what to do in the moments when we are seek God but struggle to find him.

Pastor Jeff explored a few stories in the Book of Exodus that answers the question, "Is God With Us?" The answer? He is the God who sees. He's the God who hears. He's the God who cares.

We've been exploring passages that encourage us to seek the presence of God. But in this passage we discover the power of pursuing him with others.

In response to the question “Is the Lord among us or not?” simply look to Jesus Christ, Emmanuel , who is God With Us. The Lord may not give us every answer to our questions and our tears this side of heaven. Rather, He gives us Himself. The day is coming, we are told, when every tear will be wiped away, when death and sorrow will be no more. Those griefs and unanswered questions will turn into reunions and unexpected answers that will allow us an even greater measure of joy than we ever could have known otherwise. Oh yes. The Lord is among us.

In response to the question “Is the Lord among us or not?” simply look to Jesus Christ, Emmanuel , who is God With Us. The Lord may not give us every answer to our questions and our tears this side of heaven. Rather, He gives us Himself. The day is coming, we are told, when every tear will be wiped away, when death and sorrow will be no more. Those griefs and unanswered questions will turn into reunions and unexpected answers that will allow us an even greater measure of joy than we ever could have known otherwise. Oh yes. The Lord is among us.

In this episode, we explore Isaiah 8:1–11 and the looming invasion of Judah by Assyria during the reign of Ahaz. We examine the prophetic role of Isaiah and even Isaiah's wife as living signs announcing God's coming judgment upon Judah's rebellion and misplaced trust. The Assyrian armies would overflow the land like an overflowing river, bringing devastation and loss. Yet remarkably, the land is still called the land of “Immanuel” — “God With Us.”Why? Because judgment would not be the end of the story.Even in the midst of discipline, God remained faithful to His covenant promises. Judah would be shaken, but not utterly destroyed. Beneath the warnings of Isaiah stands a portrait of a God who is patient, long-suffering, and committed to working with His people across generations. Rather than impulsively abandoning His people because of their failures, God continues to move them along His redemptive and developmental path.This episode challenges many common assumptions about the “God of the Old Testament.” Instead of a harsh, reactionary deity, Isaiah presents a God who remains present with deeply flawed people, patiently confronting, correcting, and preserving them for the sake of His promises and their growth.Finally, we connect Isaiah's Immanuel prophecy to Jesus — “God With Us” in the flesh. Just as God remained with Judah in their brokenness and willingly worked with those who were open to him, Jesus enters the lives of sinners, sufferers, and those who have gone off course and hangs out with those who were open to him. He remains with us, not to leave us where we are, but to strengthen us so that we might remain with Him.Key Passages:Isaiah 8:1-11Matthew 1:22-23Explainer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Video⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on how to use ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.biblehub.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.blueletterbible.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave us a question or comment at our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website podcast page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

In this episode of A Different Door, we begin our series, God With Us, by exploring Psalm 139 and its powerful reminder that God's presence never leaves us. Through stories of getting lost, moments of doubt, and seasons of uncertainty, we reflect on how God knows us completely, loves us fully, and walks with us through every twist and turn of life. Even when the path is unclear, we can trust the Companion who never leaves our side.

The gospel teaches you CANNOT follow Christ alone.  Thankfully, the gospel also teaches you WILL NOT follow Christ alone. To understand and appreciate the Holy Spirit two words emerge: Relationship and Role  1. His Relationship to Us 14:15-17                    A.His relationship is… Promised 14:16a Permanent 14:16b  Personal 14:17c 2. His Relationship to the World 14:17b 3. His Role in the World 16:7-15             He convicts the world concerning the… Rejection of Christ Righteousness of Christ's Death  Reality of Christ's Work 4. His Role in Us  The Holy Spirit... Gives us Spiritual Life Guides us into Spiritual Truth  Guards us from Sin Guarantees our Salvation Glorifies the Savior 15:26; 16:14 Stay Tuned In!

We were create for God's presence.

We we reject God's presence, we build false kingdoms to replace Him.

The promise that bookends Matthew's Gospel is for you

What did Isaiah really mean when he spoke of a “young woman” bearing a son called Immanuel? And why does Matthew quote Isaiah 7:14 as a prophecy of the virgin birth of Jesus?In this episode, we explore the fascinating Hebrew vocabulary behind one of the most debated passages in the Bible. We examine the nuanced meanings of the Old Testament terms na-arah, almah, and betulah, and discuss how each word overlaps with — yet differs from — the others. Does almah mean “virgin”? Does it simply mean “young woman”? Or does it intentionally sit in the space between the two?We also examine the Greek translation of Isaiah 7:14 in the Septuagint (LXX), where the Hebrew term almah is translated with the Greek word parthenos — an explicit term associated with virginity. From there, we trace how Matthew uses Isaiah 7:14 in Matthew 1:22–23 and why his interpretation depends not only on prophecy, but also on the theological trajectory of Israel's story.Along the way, we explore a significant difference between Isaiah and Matthew. In Isaiah 7:14, the woman who bears the child appears to be the one who names him Immanuel — “God with us.” Yet Matthew broadens the language so that “they” will call him Immanuel. Could Matthew be suggesting that Mary and Joseph gradually came to recognize who Jesus truly was through the years of their intimate life with him?What would it have been like to raise a child who never sinned? To watch him move from infancy to adulthood without corruption, deceit, selfishness, or moral failure? At what point would his parents begin to realize that this child was not merely sent by God — but was God with them?Ultimately, this episode is about far more than a linguistic debate. It is about the astonishing story of the incarnation: the God who does not remain distant from humanity's condition, but enters into it personally. Jesus does not merely observe our corrupted human nature from afar. He joins himself to it, enters our condition, and begins the process of healing, restoring, and transforming humanity from the inside out.Key Passages:Isaiah 7:14Matthew 1:22-23Explainer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Video⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on how to use ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.biblehub.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.blueletterbible.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave us a question or comment at our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠website podcast page⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

God's heart has always been union. In this message Wesley unpacks how His desire is truly fulfilled through Pentecost. 

Where is God in our moments of greatest temptation? He is with us. Today we learn from the life of Joseph how God walks with and empowers His people for service. We also learn what it means to walk with God as we face trials and temptations.

When you find yourself in the middle of a personal "civil war," it is easy to let fear shake your heart like trees in a heavy wind. True peace comes from realizing that many of the threats we face are merely smoke and mirrors compared to a higher power that remains in total control. You are never more than one moment or one dream away from having your path straightened out and your perspective restored. Embrace the enduring promise that we are never truly alone, a grace available to everyone regardless of their past or their background.

As the age of AI dawns, how do you hold on to your capacity to think, write, focus, empathize, and do all the things proper to human persons? According to some folks, the answer is friction-maxxing — otherwise known as going out of your way to do human things the old-fashioned way. This week, we're chatting about the nature and benefits of friction-maxxing … and whether it's actually necessary for parents of small children. Show Notes:“In 2026, We Are Friction-Maxxing,” by Kathryn Jezer-Morton“Can Friction-Maxxing Fix Your Focus” by Alexandra Patillo“I Balked at the Idea of Friction-Maxxing, But There's More to It Than Meets the Eye,” by Gaby HinsliffThe World As We Know It Is Falling Away by Jane GreerLove Like a Conflagration by Jane GreerMicha-el By Jane Greer You lull yourselves with dimple-handed cherubs simpering in your étagère half-naked; small-breasted maidens, tissue-winged and swooning there on your desktop; all those complacent fleshy pastel eunuchs posing with harp or horn on the Christmas mantel: you underestimate to your own peril Whom we have come from, Whom we are acting for, and it's too late now: suddenly it's too late to ask for mercy. Mercy is what you'll get—His wide-armed mercy— but you won't like it. He has been with you, at your elbow, lovesick, down the millennia. He knows you deeply, yet still encumbers your black hearts with blessings. Willing unwillful swain, He has wept and waited while you mocked Him. Finally, now, the muscles of His jawline clench and unclench beneath that holy shadow: ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­ Enough is enough. Don't act as though some game's been played unfairly: He's never skimped on prophets since He breathed you out of the mud and on your way to Heaven— yours for the asking— but you were too intent on what you'd crawled from. You can't begin to dream what you've rejected, what we would give to need His fierce salvation, require His dying …. Love like a conflagration shall be yours now; love like an April river, like a temblor; love like an avalanche, a midnight bomb-blast, finding you hidden, shrieking the air with shards of stained-glass windows; love like a sunstorm, sweeping before it nations, continents, galaxies, and all your hubris. Yes, say your prayers now. This is your Precious Moment, I its angel, angry and dark and terrible. God With Us, Emmanu-el, comes bearing yet more mercy, but you won't like it.

In this episode, Pastors Whit and Gabe reflect on Genesis 15 and how it shapes the entire story of Scripture. Rather than portraying a distant God who sets requirements from afar, Genesis reveals a God who desires closeness—who patiently walks with His people. What we see in these scriptures is faith not as a transaction or a moment, but as a lifelong walk of trust. More than a clean record or a distant destination, the story of Abraham is about with‑ness: God joyfully dwelling with His people and inviting them into a relationship that transforms everything.
