Has God been working in your life longer than you realize? Have you ever looked back and seen moments that felt guided—even before you knew Christ? In this 'Average Joe' conversation, Pastor Jim Ramos sits down with high school teacher and coach, and friend, Wade Sims. Wade shares how his life seemed led from the very beginning—through opportunities, challenges, and circumstances that only made sense in hindsight. Together, Jim and Wade unpack the tension between God's sovereignty and human responsibility, exploring how God equips men, lays the groundwork for calling, and draws us forward. Many times God's call is already placed on you, and it's your responsibility to live it out with clarity and courage. You'll walk away with a better understanding of why theology matters, but it always leads back to Jesus.

This Christmas sermon challenges the romanticized view of Christ's birth by examining the real hardships, inconveniences, and suffering that Mary and Joseph endured. Pastor Joe Fant emphasizes that God orchestrated every difficult detail of the nativity—from the forced 70-80 mile journey to Bethlehem while Mary was nine months pregnant, to the rejection at the guest house, to giving birth among animals—to accomplish His divine purpose. The message reveals that God works through our suffering and inconveniences for our ultimate good and His glory, just as He used 60 million people's inconvenience during Caesar Augustus's census to position Christ exactly where He needed to be born. The sermon calls believers to view their own hardships through eyes of faith, trusting that God is working a bigger picture than we can see, developing steadfastness and endurance in our lives while accomplishing His redemptive purposes. Key Points: God works through hardship and inconvenience to accomplish His divine purpose for our good and His glory The Christmas story was anchored in real history with real suffering, not a romanticized fairy tale Mary and Joseph endured a forced journey of 70-80 miles while Mary was nine months pregnant God orchestrated 60 million people to travel during the census so Christ could be born in Bethlehem Mary gave birth in a stable, rejected from the guest house, experiencing isolation from family and friends The humble circumstances of Christ's birth demonstrated He came as a servant-king who understands the outcast The shepherds—society's outcasts—were the first to worship, emphasizing Christ came for the lowly All suffering in our lives is for a reason: to test our faith and produce steadfastness God permits what He hates to accomplish what He loves If God can redeem the murder of His own Son, He can redeem any hardship we face We must look at our circumstances with eyes of faith, trusting God's bigger picture Scripture Reference: Luke 2:1-21 (primary passage) 1 Chronicles 24 (referenced regarding Zachariah's temple service) James 1 (referenced regarding trials testing faith and producing steadfastness)

Nic Brown preaches from 2 Thessalonians 3.

God could, if he chose, do all things by himself. But in His infinite wisdom, He chooses to work through vessels of clay to accomplish His ends in the world.

Original Air Date 2 November 2015. Things go wrong; problems come into our lives. Events happen which are beyond our control. In Mark 5 Jairus knew that Jesus could solve his problem, he believed in miracles, but what Jairus didn't know is how big a miracle he would need. Jesus knew the delay caused by healing other people meant this girl would die, but He also knew there was going to be a resurrection. Jesus said to Jairus, and He says to you, 'Don't be afraid, only believe'. 'When it hurts so bad why don't you give it to Jesus? He can see your troubled heart. He can mend the pain that binds you. Jesus loves you so. He's the healer of your soul.' - When it hurts so bad 'O come all ye faithful' & 'When it hurts so bad' used by kind permission of Vinesong

In this message, guest speaker, Casey Flitsch invites us to see that God works in our waiting—in our personal tension, our shared longing, and even the story God is writing across all creation. Through Joseph's story in Matthew 1, we discover that waiting is never wasted but becomes a place of formation, invitation, and the assurance that Immanuel—God with us has come. This Advent, we're reminded that the delay we feel is often the very space where God is doing His deepest work.

Sermon from Sunday, October 19th, 2025.A Study of Romans 8:28-30.Thesis: God is working towards good, Our peak ultimate Good. 

No matter how big you think your best play is… it's not in your playbook, it's in God's. See, family… the plays we draw up can only take us so far. But the ones God has lined up for us? They go beyond goals, beyond limits, beyond imagination. You might think you're chasing the next big win, the next trade, the next breakthrough, but sometimes, GOD is just setting you up for a play that's bigger than anything you could ever call for yourself. Stop questioning the delays. Stop comparing your journey. Because while you're planning small victories, God is scripting generational blessings. Your losses weren't punishment — they were preparation. Your struggle wasn't failure — it was foundation. And your time ain't passed — it's being positioned. So keep moving with faith, not fear. Because when it's God's play… the outcome is already written.You Dream in Limits… God Works in Overflow

The Bible says in Romans 8:28 that “in everything God works for the good of those who love him.” Do...

Send a text to Melissa and she'll answer it on the next episode. Peeling back layers - it's a phrase homeopaths use to describe the healing journey, and in this final installment of our Encouragement Series, we discover how profoundly this metaphor applies to our spiritual lives as well.When facing chronic illness, the center of that metaphorical onion can seem impossibly distant beneath years of accumulated layers. The journey toward wellness feels overwhelming, progress seems painfully slow, and sometimes old symptoms resurface just when we thought we were moving forward. Sound familiar? It's remarkably similar to our walk with God - the frustrations of sanctification, the disappointment when we struggle with issues we thought were resolved, and the confusion when growth happens in unexpected areas.But there's profound beauty in these parallels. Just as homeopathic remedies work gently without forcing change, God works in our lives with grace and patience. He knows exactly how much transformation we can handle at once. And when those old symptoms or struggles return? That's not failure - it's often a sign that our bodies and souls are now stronger, better equipped to process and move through them permanently.Melissa and Bri share a powerful story about a severely pruned fiddle leaf fig tree that appeared dead for a month before exploding with more abundant growth than ever before. What looked like certain death was actually the necessary preparation for unprecedented flourishing. What if our painful seasons of pruning are exactly the same?Whether you're walking through physical healing, spiritual transformation, or both simultaneously, this episode offers encouragement for the journey. The layers are peeling back, one by one, in exactly the right order. And underneath it all? Something beautiful is emerging.FIND ME!

Miracles in the mess, overcoming the fear of others' opinions, and trusting that God's work cannot be frustrated—Host Maurice Harker shows how to begin with the end in mind, let go of perfectionism, and move forward even when life feels chaotic. You'll hear real stories, courage cues (think Daniel & Esther), and practical framing to trade shame for purpose and act with faith today.If this helps, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so others can find the show.

Send us a textHave you ever felt like your prayers are met with silence?Like you're standing still while everyone else seems to be moving forward?In this episode, I'm sharing how God often does His deepest work in the quiet, unseen places. Even when it feels like nothing is happening—He's aligning hearts, shifting circumstances, and preparing paths we can't yet see.We'll reflect on Exodus 14:14, “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still,” and hold tightly to the truth in Romans 8:28—that God is working for our good, even when we can't feel it.If you're in a waiting season, this one is for you. God's silence is never absence—and His delays are never wasted.

Following his exhortation for the Philippians to work out their salvation, Paul noted the Divine activity adjoining their efforts - "for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure." (Philippians 2:13) How does God work in us? What does it mean that He works in us to will?

We're in the middle of our thrilling series, WHO CAN LEAD US?, a Bible Study on Joshua, Judges, and Samuel. In Talk 1 and Talk 2, we unpacked Joshua; In Talk 3, we dove into Judges; In Talk 4, we tackle the life of Samson—the last Judge. Samson is the long-haired dude with super strength. Samson is a superhero for many who don't read the Bible. But you'll find out that because he's the last Judge of 12 very flawed Judges, and because this book is a downward spiral whose characters get worse and worse, then that means Samson is the baddest of them all. He is the most violent, promiscuous, and vengeful of all the Judges. But at the start, Samson looked really promising. The key message of Talk 4 is You are set apart for God.

In Episode 139, the guys unpack Philippians 2:12-13 and talk about what it really means to “work out your salvation with fear and trembling.”Obedience can feel impossible at times — we want to honor God but keep falling short. The good news is that we're not doing it alone. God Himself gives us both the desire and the power to do what pleases Him.Join William Kane, Webb Simpson, and Ben Crane as they discuss how grace fuels obedience, why God's commands lead to joy, and how His Spirit works in us every day to shape us into the likeness of Christ.

Todaywe're continuing to look at Ephesians 2:10. We are talking about the good worksthat are produced after salvation in our lives through the ministry and work ofthe Holy Spirit. “God working in us both the will and to do of His goodpleasure” (Philippians 2:13). We always need to remember we are not savedby good works but we're saved unto good works and for good works for the gloryof God. James 2 makes it really clear that we're justified before God by faith,but before men, and even the assurance that we have of our own salvation, isthe fact that we have a faith that works for us and in us and through us andproduces good works because faith as he says at least three times in verses 14through 26, that “faith without works is dead”.  TheBible speaks of many different kinds of works. There are the “works of thelaw” in Galatians 2:16. There are the “works of the flesh” that arelisted in Galatians 5:19-21. There are the “works of darkness” in Romans13:12 and Ephesians 5:11. There are the “dead works” in Hebrews 6:1 thatlead to death. Then there are the “works of righteousness” in Titus 3:5that refer to religious works, or in other words, good deeds that we think cangive us our salvation and make us holy before God. But remember Isaiah declaresthat all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags in God's sight (Isaiah 64:6).My friend, if our righteousnesses are filthy, oh, what must our sins look like? Theworks that Paul's talking about in Ephesians 2:10 here have two specialcharacteristics. First, they are good works in contrast to the works ofdarkness and wicked works. If you contrast Ephesians 2:10 and Ephesians 2:2,you'll see that the unbeliever has Satan working in him and therefore his worksare not good. Because the believer has God working in him, therefore, his worksare good. His works are not good because he himself is good, but because he hasa new nature from God and because the Holy Spirit works in him and through himto produce these good works. My life verse has been Philippians chapter 1:6: “Beingconfident of this very thing that He who has begun the good work in you, Hewill perform it. He will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ”.  Itis sad today that so many believers put a little emphasis or no emphasis on theworks of the believer because they don't want to mix it up with works andsalvation. But the Bible makes a big deal about our works in Matthew 5:16. “Letyour light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorifyyour Father which is in heaven”. We don't perform good works to glorifyourselves but to glorify our Father which is in heaven. The apostle Pauldesired that Christ would be magnified in his body even if it meant death.Philippians 1:20-21. We should “abound to every good work” (2Corinthians 9:8). We should be “fruitful in every good work” (Colossians1:10). We are “equipped by God for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:17). Weshould be “zealous unto good works and maintain them” (Titus 2:14). Wefind also in Hebrews 13:16 that our good works are actually “spiritualsacrifices that we offer to God”. It'simportant to note that we don't manufacture these good works. They're theresult of God working in our heart. Paul said, "By the grace of God, Iam what I am" . My friend,when you truly have been born again and the Spirit of God lives in you, therewill be good works produced in your life for the glory of God and others willsee it and magnify God and many will believe. Rememberour good works are evidence that we have been born again. "Not everyonethat says unto Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but hethat does the will of My Father which is in heaven" (Matthew 7:21).Our good works are also testimonies to the lost (1 Peter 2:12). Our good worksthat are produced by the fruits of the Holy Spirit in us will also win us theright to be heard.

In this episode of The Chorus in the Chaos, Jack reflects on moments in life that divide time—events after which nothing is ever the same. From personal memories of 9/11 to the pivotal scene in Acts 10–11 where the gospel is extended to the Gentiles, we explore how God often works in ways we don't expect. Through Peter's vision, the criticism from the “circumcision party,” and the church's ultimate celebration of grace, we see how the gospel tears down walls of division and fulfills God's promises from Genesis to Revelation. Key Takeaways: Life-changing moments: both in history and in Scripture, God uses unexpected events to reshape our perspective. Peter's example: in humility and patience, he trusted God's work rather than fighting for his own reputation. Two responses to God's grace: criticism and resistance (like Jonah and the circumcision party) or joyful celebration of mercy. The gospel reconciles: Jews and Gentiles, enemies and friends, all made one in Christ. Practical encouragement: When God works in ways we don't understand, we're called to stay calm, stay humble, and trust Him. Jack also offers a heartfelt gospel invitation: if you've never placed your trust in Christ, now is the time to turn from sin and find peace with God.

Ross Lester explores the kind of integrated life of joy and freedom that faith in Jesus produces.

Sarah-Jane's journey begins in the unexpected transition from England's Sherwood Forest to Australia's Sunshine Coast, a bold move that ultimately led her to a life-changing encounter with Jesus. Growing up in a nominally Christian household but facing trauma and depression in her youth, Sarah-Jane spiraled into unhealthy patterns before making the decision to travel across the world for a fresh start.What follows is a remarkable story of transformation that illustrates the beautiful contrast in how God works. In one profound moment at church, Sarah-Jane experienced Jesus removing what felt like a heavy, water-soaked World War II trench coat from her shoulders, instantly lifting the burden of her past pain and mistakes. This immediate deliverance stands in stark contrast to another significant spiritual marker in her life: receiving a prophetic word about "widening her tent pegs" from Isaiah 54, a direction she's still unpacking years later.This duality becomes a powerful reminder for listeners navigating their own faith journeys. In a culture demanding instant results, Sarah-Jane's testimony validates both the immediate miracles and the long, seemingly silent seasons of waiting. Whether you're experiencing a wilderness season or seeking encouragement in your faith journey, Sarah-Jane's parting wisdom resonates deeply: "It's okay to not have all your ducks in a row... God totally has this, even if it just doesn't feel like it in the moment." Connect with Sarah-Jane:Home - Christian Women in BusinessHere's the podcast interview mentioned in this episode:https://youtu.be/nf9D6IOf92g?si=hf6liIwuKliK548I“The Legacy Heirloom Journal” book   https://a.co/d/cwmeHnUhttps://generationstogenerations.com/podcastordinarypeoplestories@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/ordinarypeoplestory https://www.instagram.com/ordinarypeopleextraordinary/ X: @storiesextra Any advice should be confirmed with a qualified professional.All rights reserved: Ordinary People Extraordinary ThingsStories shared by guests may not always be shared views of OPET.

Forest 10th AnniversaryMessage - Dr. Jerry Carlisle“God Works in Mysterious Ways"Philippians 2:5-13

Dr. Alan Kurschner explained a biblical-theological pattern where God works with both Israel and the church simultaneously in the present. And it should not be unexpected then that God will work with both Israel and the church at the same time in the future—particularly during the seven-year period.     Please consider giving monthly: https://www.alankurschner.com/partner/  

We're dropping in an episode of Dave DeSteno's podcast How God Works that explores the profound connection between craft and spirituality. Dave examines why making things with our hands can put us in a transformative state called "flow" - where time disappears, worries fade and we lose ourselves in he work. Through conversations with a Tibetan monk who creates intricate sand mandalas, a Native American glass artist and the former director of Maine's renowned Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, this episode reveals how the simple act of shaping materials can shape us in return. It's about finding meaning in the dialogue between maker and medium and discovering that sometimes the most sacred moments happen when our hands are busy and our minds are still. Enjoy!
