Podcasts about good god

For real though, peace and love to all the good fathers out there; and to all the happy spouses, lovers, and childrens: Good for you. This is more for the rest of us. Good God.

This week concludes the series.  Once we know even a part of how good the Lord is, how much He loves us, is Faithful and Trustworthy, we should conclude that there is no reason for us as believers in Jesus Christ to fear or be anxious about anything. We actually need to repent for being worried because what is not of faith is sin. (Romans 14:23). This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Ephesians 1:17-23, Psalm 118:6, Hebrews 13:5, Matthew 6:31-34.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.

Job 40:6-42:6

This week we cover the following verses that do not need any introduction. Titus 3:55 He saved us, not because of any works of righteousness that we had done, but because of His own pity and mercy, by [the] cleansing [bath] of the new birth (regeneration) and renewing of the Holy Spirit, Romans 5:1-31 Therefore, since we are justified ([a]acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to [b]enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).2 Through Him also we have [our] access (entrance, introduction) by faith into this grace (state of God's favor) in which we [firmly and safely] stand. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God.3 Moreover [let us also be full of joy now!] let us exult and triumph in our troubles and rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that pressure and affliction and hardship produce patient and unswerving endurance. Hebrews 13:55 Let your [a]character or moral disposition be free from love of money [including greed, avarice, lust, and craving for earthly possessions] and be satisfied with your present [circumstances and with what you have]; for He [God] [b]Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor [c]give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [d][I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor [e]let [you] down ([f]relax My hold on you)! [[g]Assuredly not!] This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Titus 3:5, Romans 5:1-3, Hebrews 13:5.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.

Let us thank the Lord today that His Word is not only forever settled in heaven (Ps 119:89), but it also purifies our soul.Are you saved now? Are you one of God's children? Do you remember, we were all once in darkness, in a filthy place, rolling around in sin like scarlet and crimson from Isaiah 1:18, we were like pigs in a pigsty. Filthy muddy from the bottom of our feet to the top of our head, enjoying the pleasures of our flesh, but seemingly lost. Never having experienced the cleansing power of the Love, Nature and the Blood of Christ Jesus, and how His Word is able to cleanse us of all of that filth. Even today, we are born again and we still make mistakes. It ‘s not the Lord's will for us to keep sinning, His will is for us to be grow up into Christ. Being like Him by our obedience to His Word, to His commandments, and by the power of the holy Spirit we are transformed when we slow down and chew, meditate on His Word, according to Romans 12:1 and 2.So if and when you slip up, and you feel dirty and guilty inside, in your soul, your mind, will and emotions…… let us read how the blood, the finished Works of Jesus, the Word of Life now benefits us when it comes to being set free from all sin and sickness. God has made provision by the blood of Jesus, the Word of God, the Word of Life, for us to be cleansed.This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Psalm 119:89, Romans 12:1-2, 1 John 1:1-10, Ephesians 5:25-26, Matthew 5:16, Romans 11:36, 2 Corinthians 5:17.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.

We live in a culture in which, for the first time in all of history, the truths of Christianity are no longer assumed. Our society is increasingly "Post-Christian," and there are more and more hard questions being posed to Christians. As followers of Jesus, this is not something to be fearful of, or shy away from, because these questions are ones that we have answers to. In this new series, "True & Good," we answer some of the hardest questions about Christianity. Is Christianity True? Is Christianity Good? How can a loving God allow evil? Is following Jesus even worth it? We will see that not the answers that Christianity provides does not just satisfy our curiosity, but satisfies the deepest longings of our hearts.This week, we answer the hardest question of all, “How can a good God allow suffering?” The common objection is that God is either powerful enough to stop it, but not good, or He is good, but not powerful enough to do anything to stop evil and suffering, otherwise there wouldn't be any. Our Young Adults Pastor, Brent Cummings, walks us through how to respond to this question, because the Bible teaches that God is both.We hope you're encouraged by this podcast! If you have questions about our church or what it means to follow Jesus, we'd love to hear from you!

Traditional Worship, May 31, 2026

Contmemporary Worship, May 31, 2026

We began last week to talk about reflecting on how Good God is, and how Good He is to us, in the face of us rebelling against Him as we trace back our original lineage to Adam and Eve and the decision that day at the tree of the knowledge of Good and evil, to reject the Lord and obey the devil (Genesis 3:6). This was the great fall of mankind, and the earth fell with us because we had been given dominion over it, and we gave it over to Satan in the great mistake.All babies born to this day and until Christ returns are born from that polluted lineage, fallen in nature, growing up selfish, and committing various forms of wickedness because we were following after our father the devil. John 8:44 shows us that we had his characteristics. The decision that tragic day caused a huge chasm to form between us and our loving, Mercidul, Graceful, Holy, Great, Glorious, Forgiving, Creator.This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Lamentations 3:22–23, Isaiah 30:18, Psalm 103:1-13, Romans 10:9, 1 Peter 1:3,  1 Peter 1:19, Ephesians 2:4–6, 2 Corinthians 5:17, Titus 3:5, Romans 5:1-3.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.

There is something underneath the anger you can't quite name. It sounds like disappointment. It feels like betrayal. And it has God's name on it. You prayed. You believed. You held on as long as you could. And then the thing you were afraid of happened anyway. So somewhere in the quiet, you decided — without maybe ever saying it out loud — that He let you down. That He was responsible. That if He were really good, really powerful, really in charge, this would have gone differently. Ryan Maher joins me for a conversation that goes straight to the root of that wound. Ryan is the founder of The Prayer Channel and Trust God Bro, the most-followed Christian channels on Instagram, and the author of The God Worth Trusting — a book born out of losing his mother to addiction, losing his friend Brett, and losing his faith in the version of God he'd been handed. What he discovered in that wreckage was not a tidy theology but something far more durable: a distinction between a God who controls and a God who is sovereign, and why confusing those two things has done more damage to the church's trust than almost anything else. We cover the difference between sovereignty and control, what it actually means that God is good at the level of nature and not just activity, and why the phrase "everything happens for a reason" is not only unhelpful; it's a theological lie. If you have walked through something that feels impossible to reconcile with a good God, this conversation will not give you easy answers. What it will give you is a more honest starting place — and the invitation to build a history with the Lord that holds when the circumstances don't. The question is not whether you can trust Him. The question is whether you are willing to let scripture define who He is rather than letting your worst moment do it. Guest Bio Ryan Maher is a pastor and evangelist who uses every digital tool available to share the Gospel, reaching hundreds of millions of people each month through the ministries he has founded and leads, including The Prayer Channel — the number one most popular broadcast channel on Instagram. He is the author of The God Worth Trusting: Restoring Faith in a Good God, a book he describes as the resource he wished someone had handed him in his own darkest seasons.

Greg talks about distinguishing between descriptive and prescriptive passages, then he answers questions about a secular case against legalizing prostitution, how a good God could send a lying spirit, fulfilling a rash vow to God, and attending a wedding between a Christian and a non-Christian.   Topics: Commentary: Distinguishing descriptive passages from prescriptive ones (00:00) How would you make a secular case that we shouldn't legalize prostitution? (06:00) How would you explain God being holy and good to a non-believer reading 1 Kings 22:21–23, where God sends a lying spirit? (29:00) When I thought God called me to be single, I made a vow to do it, but now that I've changed my mind about callings, am I still obligated to fulfill that vow? (38:00) Would it be wrong to attend the wedding of a Christian family member who is marrying a non-Christian, and if it's wrong, what should I do if my wife wants to go?

goodgodbycherita@gmail.com A Single Girl's Rocky Path to Finding True Love (Author Cherita O'dell) Hello I wanted to introduce you to Cherita O'dell, an author and speaker whose work sits at the intersection of faith, modern dating, and the quiet burnout many women are carrying right now. Cherita is the author of “Good God!: A Single Girl's Rocky Path to Finding True Love.” It's a faith-based book, but not a glossy or preachy one. She writes for women who love God and still wrestle with timing, waiting, and the feeling that life didn't unfold the way they expected. One of her core messages is that dating isn't just a romantic decision, it's a spiritual one, and that idea tends to stop people mid-scroll. What makes Cherita especially compelling is her lived experience. She qualified for the 1996 Olympic Games and was sidelined by injury just before competing — an early lesson in identity, disappointment, and trusting purpose when plans fall apart. That perspective now shows up in how she speaks about relationships, resilience, and surrender in a way that feels grounded, honest, and relatable. Cherita is thoughtful on air, easy to talk with, and doesn't rely on platitudes. She speaks candidly about faith, desire, waiting, and wholeness without guilt or pressure to wrap things up neatly. Her work resonates with single women navigating today's dating culture, faith-based audiences craving more honest conversation, and producers looking for guests who bring both depth and warmth. If you're exploring guests around relationships, spirituality, women's empowerment, or personal growth, I'd be happy to see if Cherita might be a fit. For more information, visit the online press kit at CheritaOdell.OnlinePresskit247.com and public site goodgodhelpmeout.com. For interviews with Cherita, send requests to anita@wasabipublicity.com. About Cherita: Cherita O'dell is a transformational speaker and author of “Good God!: A Single Girl's Rocky Path to Finding True Love,” a faith-based book for women navigating waiting, dating, and purpose. A former Olympic athlete and licensed real estate broker, she blends spiritual wisdom, resilience, and real-life experience to help individuals and organizations rethink identity, timing, and trust. Through Speak Life, Cherita challenges audiences to stop asking God to bless their plans, and start making decisions God can bless. Born in Barbados and educated at Rice University and Interamerican University of Puerto Rico, she brings warmth, clarity, and conviction to every conversation. Visit: goodgodhelpmeout.com.

What if the greatest invitation you'll ever receive isn't about getting into heaven, but about choosing to accept it today? Through the story of Lazarus and the rich man, you'll discover that hell isn't about God sending people away, but about honoring the choices we make.

Almost every pro baseball player Matt Hannaford represents has the same wound — and it traces back to their relationship with their dad. In this live event, MLB agent Matt Hannaford and high performance coach Jo Martinez Killian sit down with parents and young athletes to walk through the pattern Joe has seen in nearly every major league locker room he's ever worked in, and what actually breaks the cycle before it starts. Subscribe to the channel for the insider playbook on what pro scouts, agents, and performance coaches actually see in elite players — and what most parents get wrong long before the draft conversation ever happens.   WHAT YOU'LL LEARN - Why Norway produces more elite athletes per capita than any country in the world — and the sports rules they enforce before age 13 - The three-word reframe that took one of Matt's clients from AA to a home run on his first major league pitch - How to turn a complaint into a vision you both agree on — the exact script - The difference between expectations and agreements, and why expectations are a pathway to resentment - Why "I don't wanna see my kid struggle" is the instinct that steals the one thing they actually need from you   Matt reads a letter from the father of a division one SEC pitcher with a zero ERA who is draft-eligible — a letter that made Matt call Joe the same day and say we have to do this live. The dad writes that his son, at 20, told him flat out he cannot relax around him anymore because every conversation turns into criticism. The dad's response is the line that frames the entire episode: there are times I wish he would just step away from baseball so he can feel how much I love him and how it has nothing to do with performance. Jo breaks down the framework he uses with pro athletes across MLB, NBA, NHL, and NCAA locker rooms. Where there is no vision, the people perish — but most parents are leading from complaints instead of vision, and from expectations instead of agreements. He walks through the four-step move that turns an expectation like "I expect you to respect me" into an agreement both parent and kid actually own. He names the fawning pattern coaches see in kids who have learned to pacify the adult in front of them instead of saying what they actually want. Matt shares the moment Jo called him out on a client call — Matt jumped in to answer a question Jo was still working through with the player, and Jo told him afterward: you stole his growth. The question was his weight to lift. That single exchange is the frame for the entire conversation with youth athletes and their parents. The instinct to take struggle away from your kid is the instinct that leaves them unable to carry anything hard later. Struggle is the gift. The discomfort is where the identity gets built.   TIMESTAMPS 0:00 — The Letter From a Division One Dad 6:30 — Norway's Sports Rules Before Age 13 7:50 — His Dream Not Mine: Jo's Soccer Story 26:59 — Why Success Is Also Poison 37:59 — You Stole His Growth: The Struggle Is the Gift 40:38 — Complaints Are Vision in Disguise 1:02:42 — Expectations Lead to Resentment 59:15 — The Three-Word Vision That Got Zach Cole Called Up 1:19:31 — Disempowered vs. Empowered Language 1:30:51 — Baseball Does Not Make a Good God   ABOUT MATT HANNAFORD Matt Hannaford is the president and CEO of Aligned Sports Agency and the host of the Most Valuable Agent podcast. Over 20+ years he has negotiated more than $2 billion in MLB contracts, representing Manny Machado, Albert Pujols, Joey Votto, Austin Riley, and Liam Hendriks, with prior exposure to Barry Bonds, Mike Piazza, and Trevor Hoffman.

Do we really believe that all that we need comes from God? The Israelites did, and they set aside a special feast to thank Him for His provision. This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice we're looking at Psalm 65, a harvest hymn celebrating the Jewish harvest festival, the Feast of Tabernacles.

That's exactly why I think you'll click with Cherita O'dell, a transformational speaker, author, and former Olympic athlete who has a gift for talking honestly about faith, identity, and the struggles that can come with waiting for life to turn out as hoped.Cherita's story started on the long jump track headed for the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. An unexpected injury on the cusp of competition forced her to confront disappointment and redefine what success really means, a journey she now shares with audiences who crave conversations beyond silver linings. From her Barbadian upbringing to helping women and faith communities move through burnout, Cherita's approach is blunt, soulful, and never cliché.Her book, “Good God!: A Single Girl's Rocky Path to Finding True Love,” leans into real talk about dating, faith, and the spaces where surrender is hard. Cherita has a way of making listeners feel seen by asking tough questions and refusing to offer easy answers. Her insights land with single women fatigued by expectations, faith-driven audiences who want honesty, and anyone looking to reframe the wait for purpose.You can check out more about Cherita and her book at https://cheritaodell.onlinepresskit247.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

a good God

Jonah 約拿書 1Sometimes, it seems that God's people are the greatest obstacle to God's purposes. How can God save the world if his people refuse to obey? Jonah reveals the power of a Good God.

This week, Jacob steps into a question people have wrestled with for thousands of years: why would a good God allow good people to suffer? Together, we look at five truths rooted in Scripture that help lay a foundation for understanding suffering in the world. It is an honest conversation that invites us to wrestle with the tension and anchor our faith in what is true.Message: Why Would a Good God Allow Good People to Suffer?Series: When In DoubtSpeaker: Jacob Blouse (Outreach Minister)Date: 4-12-2026Find out how you can connect or partner with us: wcconline.org/connectFollow us on social media: @wcconlinechurch

In the "Forged by Fire" series, we follow David through the ultimate crucible: the transition from a hunted fugitive in the wilderness of 1 Samuel to the established King of Israel in 2 Samuel. These messages explore how God uses seasons of intense pressure, betrayal, and waiting to refine the character of His people. From the caves of Engedi to the heights of the Davidic Covenant in 2nd Samuel 7, we see that God's primary work isn't just changing our circumstances, but shaping our hearts. Join us as we learn how the "fire" of life's trials is designed not to consume us, but to forge a faith that lasts.

Corrosion of Conformity They don't come any cooler than Pepper Keenan and Woody Weatherman of Corrosion of Conformity. They join us to discuss new album, “Good God, Baad Man,” new bassist Bobby Landgraf and drummer Nick Shabatura, the lifeblood goodness of Keystone beer, and picking the brains of Rob Halford and Ian Hill while touring with Judas Priest. We also ask about the origins of the COC skull, Pepper's audition for Metallica and what it's like to rival Taylor Swift on social media. Created and Produced by Jared Tuten

“Yes we can” vote and protest our way out of authoritarianism. It's a classic case of academic literature never making it to mainstream consumption. Hang around social media long enough and you'll hear that we're basically screwed. A complete fascist take over is either extremely likely, inevitable, or it's already here. And there's not much we can do about it. Unless some other country invades us, we'll be waiting for a civil war or a bloody military coup to hopefully maybe turn things around. That's what history teaches us, right? Literally the opposite. An incredible data set that a team of thousands of academics have been assembling for over a decade provides a unique opportunity to examine these questions with fresh eyes. To look at wannabe dictators and see how many succeeded, how many eventually lost power, how democracy returned (if ever), and why. With this systematic approach, we see that strengthened democracy specifically because of authoritarian episodes is increasingly common. In fact, in the last 30 years it's the most common response to autocratization, and most often achieved by internal democratic actors. Taking this into account, events once viewed as episodes of successful stand-alone autocratization, with resistance ultimately futile, are actually better characterized as failures that caused a wave of democratic sentiment in the populace. Successful civil resistance that just took time. Jenessa takes us through the paper that has her jumping for joy this week. Resist! Nord, M.

To become a follower of Jesus, visit: https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/Jesus  ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ TODAY'S SCRIPTURE: Genesis 1:3–25 [3] And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. [4] And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. [5] God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day. [6] And God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” [7] And God made the expanse and separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so. [8] And God called the expanse Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day. [9] And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. [10] God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good. [11] And God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so. [12] The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. [13] And there was evening and there was morning, the third day. [14] And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years, [15] and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. [16] And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. [17] And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, [18] to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. [19] And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day. [20] And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” [21] So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. [22] And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” [23] And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day. [24] And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. [25] And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

Pastor Gabe George continues week eleven of our teaching series, Breakthrough. Transformation happens in us when we submit our deepest desires to God. He invites us to trust His goodness by bringing Him our honest, real desires. As we come to Him in prayer, God uses that space to form us and to shape our desires to align with His will. When we trust God's goodness in the context of deep relationship with Him, we can bring our true self to Him, allow Him to form us more into His image, and watch as He moves on our behalf according to His good plan.   In this message, Pastor Gabe explores the following Scriptures: – Next Steps Looking to take a next step?

To paraphrase—awkwardly—that 70s-era lyric, "International Law! What Is It Good For? Absolutely. Nothing! Good God!" Lucretia host's this week's episode, which combines her skepticism of international law, especially as it relates to our current military operations against Iran, along with her impatience with our willful refusal to take radical Islam seriously, now that Islam-inspired violence in the U.S. is now a daily occurence. The first topic was inspired by John Yoo's latest article on the subject; the latter subject inspired by the news headlines, needless to say.Oh, we also make the case briefly for invading Iceland. It has to do with hamburgers. Also there are dogs.

This week on Is The Mic Still On, the crew breaks down another packed news cycle, starting with rising tension in the US–Iran conflict and what escalation could mean moving forward. Later, the conversation shifts to Kristi Noem’s exit, Bill Clinton’s Senate testimony and renewed attention around Hillary Clinton, before getting into major media moves involving Netflix, Paramount, and Warner. The episode closes with reactions to Jonathan Majors’ latest project and why his return continues to spark debate. Join the conversation and let us know which topic stood out most this week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The guys confess their most egregious romance fails from forgotten birthdays, last-minute Valentine's plans, and bookstore traditions gone stale to wildly different philosophies on “setting the bar” in marriage. Al uses the pain of romance to highlight another truth: there's pain that hurts, and pain that alters. That distinction becomes personal as Zach opens up about his mother's long battle with early-onset dementia and the complicated grief that followed her passing. The conversation turns to one of Christianity's hardest realities: if God is good and all-powerful, why does so much suffering continue in the world?  In this episode: Ecclesiastes 3, verse 11; Psalm 90, verse 12; Hebrews 12, verse 2; Colossians 2, verses 20–23; Romans 1, verses 24–25; Romans 8, verses 20–23; 1 John 2, verses 15–16; 1 John 4, verses 8–10 Today's conversation is about Lesson 6 of C.S. Lewis on Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale professor Michael Ward. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about C.S. Lewis on Christianity: Encounter the faith & wisdom of C.S. Lewis C.S. Lewis's writings bring the great questions of the Christian faith to life. Through his imaginative and invigorating style, Lewis answers these questions in ways that are compelling to those outside Christianity and energizing to those within the Christian faith. In this free, seven-lecture course, Professor Michael Ward—a leading scholar of C.S. Lewis—will explore Lewis's: argument for objective moral value in response to the rise of modern subjectivism; bittersweet path to conversion and the role of enjoyment in the Christian life; advice regarding the proper way to pray and read the Bible; teachings concerning the purpose of pain and how to confront suffering and loss; insights about the nature of heaven and hell. This course examines these fundamental topics not only through his classic works—including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, and The Abolition of Man—but also through Lewis's personal experiences with doubt, conversion, suffering, grief, and joy. Through this course, students will discover Lewis's core lessons regarding the truth and goodness of the Christian faith and how to apply those lessons to one's life.  Join us today in discovering C.S. Lewis's enduring lessons about the meaning and practice of Christianity.
