Today we dive deep into the heavy reality of wives who are carrying the spiritual load alone. We break down the biblical definition of headship—Prophet, Priest, and King—and explain how a wife can win her husband "without a word" through a gentle and quiet spirit, while also giving a direct, sobering call to men to repent and embrace Godly leadership. RESOURCES:Master marital communication: https://speak.fiercemarriage.comTake the 31-Day Pursuit Challenge: https://31daypursuit.comPray for your spouse with intention: https://40prayers.comTo learn more about becoming a Christian, visit: https://thenewsisgood.comThis ministry is entirely listener-supported.

In this episode, Caroline sits down with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Amanda Frances and chats about money, manifestation, why women are taught to avoid talking about finances, and of course her time on RHOBH. They discuss shame, financial literacy, desire-driven motivation, and “inspired action” as a blend of mindset and practical steps. Amanda describes culture shock joining Housewives without knowing the “rules,” feeling emotionally unsafe amid conflict, and dealing with online trolling, and doing phone detoxes. She discusses what she would do if she were on the show again, talks about gratitude practices, shares her background leaving a cult and redefining faith, and previews her books Rich as F*ck and Godly as F*ck. Be sure to check out this episode to get inspired, laugh and learn the reality of this “housewife.”

This week, Jesus confronts the Pharisee who prizes rules, traditions, and “how” we do things over the love of people. When love is missing, our holiness becomes hallow and the “what” we do lacks a Godly “why”. In this confrontation, Jesus is restoring the Sabbath to its original purpose. The Sabbath was a space for rest, renewal, healing, compassion, and the joy of being human in God's presence. In a desire for control and power, the Pharisees made it all about their own personal “what's” & “how's” and completely left behind the true “why” of the gift. This week, Jesus confronts that spirit by asking…what traditions have we allowed to become more important than the command to love God and love others?

More Christians have died in recent years than in the entire history of the church of Jesus Christ. Today, Pastor JD reminds us that God is still in control. Further, what do we expect? As Jesus’ return draws near, the Bible tells us that evil and lawlessness will increase. We cannot react in anger or fear. We must continue to have patience, be encouraged, and live Godly lives.

The second consecutive message on Giving and Stewardship taught using "The Oreo Cookie of Giving" example: The Macedonian Christians and Jesus Christ with the Corinthian church in the middle. Examples from the rich young ruler and Zacchaeus are used, in conclusion, showing that Godly sorrow brings repentance which is the right starting point that giving flows from. 2 Corinthians 7:10 VF-1848 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

Godly leaders fear God, are trustworthy, and aren't swayed by dishonest gain.

In a world filled with information, knowledge is easy to find—but wisdom is much harder to obtain. Ideas and philosophies often come packaged attractively, appearing thoughtful, progressive, or insightful. Yet appearances can be misleading. Just as a beautifully designed book may contain poor content, teachings that seem appealing can still lead us away from truth. The Bible reminds us that true wisdom has a very specific starting point: “The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom” (Job 28:28). This “fear” is not terror, but reverence—a deep respect for God’s authority, holiness, and truth. It means recognizing that God’s understanding far surpasses our own. From the very beginning, humanity has struggled to distinguish between worldly knowledge and godly wisdom. In the Garden of Eden, the serpent presented deception in an appealing way, making disobedience appear wise and desirable. That same pattern continues today. Sin often looks attractive, and worldly ideas are frequently praised as enlightened or progressive. Yet Scripture consistently points us in another direction. Godly wisdom flows from knowing God and aligning our lives with His Word. It is cultivated through studying Scripture, praying for understanding, and surrounding ourselves with voices that strengthen our faith. Sometimes choosing God’s wisdom may look foolish to the world. Obedience, humility, and holiness are not always celebrated in modern culture. But what appears foolish to the world is often the path of true wisdom before God. The greatest treasure we can pursue is not influence, wealth, or intellectual achievement—it is a heart that reveres God and seeks His truth. When we begin there, our choices, priorities, and understanding start to align with His perfect wisdom. Main Takeaways Knowledge is abundant, but true wisdom comes from God. The fear of the Lord—reverence and obedience—is the beginning of wisdom. Worldly ideas can appear appealing but may lead away from truth. Godly wisdom grows through Scripture, prayer, and faithful community. Obedience to God may seem foolish to the world but reflects true wisdom. Today’s Bible Verse “Where then does wisdom come from? Where does understanding dwell? … And he said to the human race, ‘The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding” (Job 28:20, 28, NIV).

What is true righteousness? Today, Joyce explains the difference between self-righteousness and Godly righteousness and the freedom that can be gained by understanding the difference.

If you've listened for a while, you'll probably have gathered I have 3 sons. Because of that, raising Godly sons is a topic near and dear to my heart. I want to say from the top: just because I talk about something I'm working through with my sons doesn't mean I don't think you've experienced it with your daughter. I only come from the reference point of having sons. That being said, from the number of comments I've received about the nerves of steel, I've developed raising them, and the level of activity you would find in my house may exceed what you anticipate from the peaceful conversations we have on this podcast. The cultural messages around us press men into malformation. Maybe you grew up with "boys will be boys" messaging you want to press against, or maybe you are trying to raise a "wild at heart" adventurer. But more than those things Biblically, Champ Thornton points out, there's something even more important we need to center our parenting of boys around. Can you tell us about yourself and your current stage of life? How did your personal experience form you to talk about the celebration of being a boy? As parents, we get bogged down in the weeds about what kind of boy we want to raise. An athletic boy, an artistic boy, a gentle boy, a tough boy, a creative boy etc. Out of all those lenses to see our sons. What is most important to focus on? There are a lot of conversations around boys in school and the way many of them struggle with the amount of time required to sit. How do we encourage our sons to use their energy positively? What can parents and teachers do to help them? How do the life of Jesus and the fruit of the Spirit help us balance and harness the potential of our sons and turn them into strengths?  What are some lens shifts and phrases we can use in our parenting to celebrate the boy that God made our sons to be? You can find Champ Thornton's ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠"⁠It's Good to be a Boy"⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠hereJOIN US: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Around Our American World ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for family-style learning!!

Godly righteousness is the very opposite of self-righteousness. Today, Joyce explains both types of righteousness and shares the benefits of understanding the difference.

What happens when God prepares you for nearly two decades before revealing your next assignment?In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface sit down with entrepreneur and community leader Rod Vilhauer, who shares the incredible journey that led him from business success… to personal desert… to stepping into a completely unexpected calling: running for mayor of Frisco, Texas.Rod built a company that generated $400 million a year in revenue, only to watch it collapse and spend the next 18 years walking through a season of waiting and testing. What looked like a desert was actually preparation.Through stories about faith, perseverance, and sowing seed when nothing seems to be growing, Rod explains how God uses difficult seasons to build the character needed for future leadership.The conversation explores:Why God often spends more time working in a person than working through themHow seasons of struggle build the foundation for purposeThe biblical principle of sowing seed even in droughtWhy faith requires looking vertical instead of horizontalThe role Christians should play in leadership and public lifeWhat it looks like to step into purpose even later in lifeRod also shares the story of his brother planting crops during a drought when every other farmer said it was pointless—only to see an incredible harvest later. The lesson is simple but powerful: If you stop sowing, you eliminate your chance to reap.Whether you're in a season of waiting, wondering about your calling, or trying to understand how faith intersects with leadership and culture, this episode will challenge you to keep sowing, keep trusting God, and stay ready for the moment when the door finally opens.Because sometimes the longest seasons of preparation lead to the most unexpected purpose.Join a group of likeminded Impossible Life listeners in our FREE Skool community by clicking here.Get the Purpose Playbook by clicking hereGet the FREE Basic Discipline Training 30 Day Program by clicking hereJoin us in Mindset Mastery by clicking hereIf you're a man that wants real accountability and training to be a leader, click here.Level up your nutrition with IDLife by clicking hereGET IN TOUCHSocial Media - @theimpossiblelifeEmail - info@theimpossible.life

March 8, 2026We continue our study of God's ideal standards for godly marriages. Godly wives submit to their own husbands. God husbands lay their lives down for their wives in love and honor. God's standard is directly opposed to our default wiring. To meet His standard, we must devote ourselves first to the Lord and then to our spouse. We have the opportunity to deepen love and honor in our marriages. Let's take it.1 Peter 3:7

Ephesians 6:1-4Dr. Brian Lee

Pastor Nick preaches on the importance of Godly character and keeping watch over our families from Nehemiah 7.

Brother Austen speaks about The Importance of Godly Council.

https://www.maynardvillefellowship.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Cooke-3-8-26.mp3 Last week Pastor Matt showed how the power of multiplication enabled the apostles and the early church to change the world so quickly. Godly men became examples for others to imitate, and those who followed their example became examples themselves. As that life-on-life discipleship continued, the gospel “sounded forth” not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in “every place.” Through the power of multiplication, the influence of faithful Christians reached far beyond the places the apostles themselves had ever gone. This week, Pastor Matt explains an essential qualification: Christianity is not a Lone Ranger faith. God is not simply multiplying isolated believers, but building one unified body made up of many members with different gifts and callings. In Romans 12:3–8, we see that Christians are called to a right view of themselves, a right view of others, and faithful cooperation within the body as together we labor to disciple the nations.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com      If you want crazy results you gotta train with crazy people. If you wanna be rich you gotta hang out with rich people, if you want to be smart you gotta hang out with smart people and if you want to be Godly… you guessed it - and thats where we are going today.      My Granddaughter has one functioning kidney…  Since birth, her non-functonal left kidney has had fluid surrounding it. They've monitored it because if it gets to be any more, she has risk for infection or something more serious.    Today, for the first time, our urologist said that the dilation around that kidney was GONE.    They don't wanna see her again until she's 13!   BUT UNDERSTAND LIFE IS SHORT Life is short Olympics is years for seconds. The 100 meter dash, years of training, dieting, working out, stretching, overcoming injuries, saying no to normal life activities - all for less than 10 seconds…  I run the race to finish (Apostle Paul) life is short! The training isn't for life, its for eternity.      THE LAST DANCE  Key Quotes and Descriptions:  Jud Buechler: "People were afraid of him... The fear factor of MJ was so, so thick". Will Perdue: "Let's not get it wrong: He was an a--hole... He was a jerk. He crossed the line numerous times". Horace Grant: "It was a bully approach... If you didn't confront Mike, he would ride you every day, all day, all the time". Scottie Pippen: "He Couldn't Have Been More Condescending If He Tried". Steve Kerr: Regarding their practice fight, Kerr noted that Jordan "tested everybody he played with”. BJ Armstrong: "Was he a nice guy? He couldn't have been nice. With that kind of mentality he had, you can't be a nice guy. He would be difficult to be around if you didn't truly love the game of basketball". Michael Jordan (defending his approach): "Winning has a price. And leadership has a price".  MJ emotional in the last dance: You ask my teammates and they will say One thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to do something that he didn't do when people see this well he wasn't really a nice guy. He may have been a tyrant well that's you because you never wanted anything. I wanted to win, but I wanted them to win and to be a part of that as well, but I don't have to do this. I'm only doing it because it is who I am. That's how I played the game that was my mentality, if you don't wanna play that way, don't play that way. Break     When Jesus says “take up your cross” he says it in this same context as MJ. Right here in verse 22 Luke 9:22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”

Nothing strikes fear into the heart of a parent like the words “family crisis.” Pastor Mike Fabarez sets down biblical guidance for strengthening family ties. While our culture seems dead set on tearing down the traditional family, the Bible affirms the beauty and blessing of this fundamental unit!

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to Cory Doden from Red Wing, MN. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 7:36-38. If anyone thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry—it is no sin. But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well. So then he who marries his betrothed does well, and he who refrains from marriage will do even better. — 1 Corinthians 7:36-38 Paul is doing something important here. He is teaching believers how to make faithful decisions when Scripture allows freedom. This passage has sparked debate for centuries—about fathers and daughters, fiancés and engagements—but Paul's pastoral point remains clear regardless of the scenario: Godly decisions are not driven by pressure. Paul describes two faithful paths. In the first situation, marriage is the wise and obedient choice. Desire is strong, self-control is strained, and covenant is the proper place for that desire. Paul says plainly: "Let them marry—it is no sin." In the second situation, restraint is the wiser choice—not because marriage is wrong, but because conviction is settled, self-control is present, and no external pressure is forcing the decision. Paul says this person "will do well." What matters most is not the outcome, but the posture. Paul highlights three marks of a wise decision: No coercion — being under no necessity. Self-control — desire is governed, not denied. Conviction — a settled heart, not spiritual panic. This is freedom with conviction. Paul refuses to turn marriage or restraint into a spiritual competition. One is not sinful. The other is not superior in every circumstance. Both can be faithful when chosen wisely. This is important to know situationally, because some believers equate restriction with holiness. We assume that the harder path must be the godlier one. And Paul gently corrects that thinking. Holiness is not measured by severity. It is measured by obedience flowing from conviction, where there is freedom. But where God gives freedom, He also expects wisdom. And wisdom requires clarity, patience, and honest self-assessment. Paul's guidance reminds us that faithfulness is not found in rushing decisions—or avoiding them—but in making them with a heart settled before God. DO THIS: Think about a decision you're currently facing. Before acting, ask whether it's being driven by pressure, fear, or comparison—or by prayerful conviction before God. ASK THIS: Where do I feel pressure to choose quickly rather than wisely? How do I distinguish conviction from guilt or fear? What would it look like to wait until my heart is settled before deciding? PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for the freedom You give within Your wisdom. Help me resist pressure and fear, and lead me into decisions shaped by conviction, self-control, and trust in You. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Trust in You"

On this week's Friday Focus, Emily and Emaley sit down with Nancy Hamilton for a heartfelt and practical conversation on cultivating a godly home, marriage, and family. Alongside her husband, who pastored Friendship Baptist Church from 1989–2024, Nancy invested decades in shepherding a local church family while faithfully raising six children who now serve the Lord around the world. Having recently spoken at the Southland Couples' Retreat, Nancy shares from a well of lived experience—offering wisdom shaped not just in theory, but in the daily rhythms of ministry, motherhood, and marriage.In this episode, she opens up about why she is so passionate about encouraging families in this season, walking listeners through the distinct stages of child-rearing—from early training to launching adult children with confidence and faith. With warmth and clarity, Nancy emphasizes the steady power of consistency in the home: consistent love, consistent discipline, consistent example. Whether you are newly married, in the thick of parenting, or preparing for the years ahead, this conversation will strengthen your vision for a Christ-centered home and remind you that faithfulness in the ordinary moments bears fruit for eternity.
