Shocking truth: Being a "good person" won't get you to heaven. In this eye-opening sermon, discover why salvation is by faith alone—not works—through the stories of Passover, Red Sea, and Rahab in Hebrews 11. Using a powerful classroom test analogy, Pastor Brandon reveals how Jesus already aced the test and offers to put His perfect score on your report card.If you've ever felt:"I'm not good enough"

In this compelling sermon, Pastor Karl dives into Matthew Chapters 3 and part of 4, introducing John the Baptist and the launch of Jesus' public ministry. He explores the radical call to repentance as forward-facing surrender, the humble wilderness ministry of John—clothed in camel hair and heralding the coming Messiah—and the dramatic baptism where heaven breaks open with the Trinity on full display. Pastor Karl then examines Jesus' temptation in the wilderness, revealing how Satan attacks God's provision, protection, and promises, and how Jesus defeats every lie with Scripture alone. He emphasizes that repentance is not a one-time event but a lifestyle that prepares the way for the kingdom, that true faith bears fruit, and that heaven meets obedience with strength. Join us for a powerful message that calls every believer to repent, resist the devil, and trust God's Word in every trial. Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

“Can narcissists or psychopaths ever live moral lives?”This week's Fan Mail question comes from a listener who asks: “Do you think there are some narcissists or psychopaths who genuinely try to live moral lives—perhaps guided by religion or conscience—or are they all just pretending?”Her question was prompted by years of watching her ex, a man she believes to be a malignant narcissist, play the part of a “righteous” and religious man in public while being manipulative and cruel in private.In this episode, Dr. Kerry explores the complex intersection between moral development, conscience, and personality disorders.Submit Your Question If you'd like your question addressed on air, send it here:

In today's episode, we're diving into one of the most common yet unnoticed traps that many of us fall into and that's people pleasing. Are you constantly putting others' needs ahead of your own? Maybe you're the go to person for everyone in your life, the one that always says “yes” when you really want to say “no”. While this might make you feel like a “good person,” it could be the exact thing stopping you from achieving your life goals. Today we'll cover how this is sabotaging your success, why it's unnecessary, and discuss the steps to take to stop putting everyone else' s needs before your own. If you've ever felt drained, frustrated, or resentful after prioritizing others over yourself then this episode is for you.    xoxo,    Jeannet    Work with Jeannet:   Apply for one on one private coaching: https://forms.gle/bwoTL8HCUDPmM1LY8 Get my FREE workbook to help you identify the skills you can monetize with an online business: https://www.jeannetsacks.com/monetizeskills Coaching Business Workshop: This Workshop is designed to take you from newbie to launching your own Online Coaching Business or restructure your current Coaching Program so it starts making you money.

Being A Good Person Is NOT Easy

Breaking up is never easy—especially when the person you're leaving isn't toxic, cruel, or a bad partner, but simply not the right match. In this episode, Jillian shares her personal story of ending a relationship with a “good person” and the powerful lessons she learned about values, lifestyle alignment, friendship, and trust. She explores the subtle red flags we often ignore, the fear of becoming “the villain” in someone else's story, and why staying with the wrong partner ultimately hurts both people. If you've ever struggled with knowing when to walk away—or questioned a breakup after the fact—this conversation will give you clarity, courage, and self-trust.

Architectural career tips meet life lessons in a conversation about balancing professional success with being a genuinely good person. This is Tips for being an Architect and a Good Person.

It's Witness Wednesday! In this episode of Wretched Radio, host Todd Friel travels to Georgia Tech. He engages with several students, challenging their views on evolution, morality, and Christianity. Through thought-provoking conversations, Todd explains the gospel, sin, and redemption, aiming to awaken these student's consciences and encourage them to consider the God that created them. Segment 1: • Eduardo grew up Catholic, but unsure of afterlife: says he's a "good person." • Admits to breaking God's commandments but hopes for mercy. • Todd explains the gospel as Jesus paying Eduardo's moral debt — the only way to avoid hell. Segment 2: • Joey believes in evolution and rejects intelligent design despite his programming background. • Confesses to lying, stealing, lusting — yet insists morality can exist without God. • Todd appeals to Joey's conscience and shares how Jesus satisfies both God's justice and mercy. Segment 3: • Dallas, raised Catholic, is now more loosely “Christian”, and admits to sinning and doubts personal goodness. • He learns why God gave the commandments — not to “win” but to show we're sinners in need of a Savior. • Todd presents Dallas with a clear, full explanation of the gospel. Segment 4: • Riley doesn't consider himself religious but has “heard it all before.” • He acknowledges sin and God's standard — but questions grace, responsibility, and eternal consequences. • Todd likens salvation to a costly rescue and urges Riley to respond to Jesus' kindness, not just fear judgment. ___ Thanks for listening!

Regular service will resume shortly, but for now we are on a bit of a Summer Holiday schedule!

Dr. Rick joins today to discuss what it really means to become a good person. Despite all his years of counseling, Rick shares that no one has ever walked into his office saying, “I want to be a good person.” However, by the end of their sessions, that desire is typically surfaced. It's the realization that we all want to become someone who is grounded. Generous. Integris. That little question: Am I a good person? quietly lingers within each one of us.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.

Historian and author, Rutger Bregman believes there's an antidote to the sense of emptiness that so many people feel, and it's the will to make the world a better place. To devote your career to the greater challenges of our time rather than just making money. That the time has come for a moral reawakening. That moral ambition not just financial ambition is what we need if we want to fix the world and actually like our place in it.

In this episode, I'm talking with pediatrician and author Ken Ginsburg about his new book Lighthouse Parenting. Ken shares his powerful framework for showing up as a steady, loving guide for our kids—offering both support and boundaries as they grow. We get into what it means to really know and prepare our kids, how to be their safe harbor in tough times, and why our own self-care matters just as much as theirs, especially in today's world of social media and constant pressure. About Dr. Ken Ginsburg Dr. Ken Ginsburg practices Adolescent Medicine at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and is a Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. Dr. Ginsburg practices social adolescent medicine – service with special attention to prevention and the recognition that social context and stressors affect both physical and emotional health. His research over the last 35 years has focused on facilitating youth to develop their own solutions to social problems and to teach adults how to better serve them. He is the Founding Director of The Center for Parent and Teen Communications which works to empower parents with the skill-sets to strengthen their family connections and position them to guide their teens to become their best selves. It works to shift the cultural narrative about adolescence from being a time to survive to one in which development is to be optimized. His books include, Building Resilience in Children and Teens: Giving Kids Roots and Wings; Congrats- You're Having a Teen!: Strengthen Your Family and Raise a Good Person; and Lighthouse Parenting:Raising your Child with Loving Guidance for an Enduring Bond. All of these works are published by The American Academy of Pediatrics. He currently works with Covenant House International's 35 sites to solidify and magnify their practice model rooted in the healing power of loving and respectful adult connections with youth. Things you'll learn from this episode What “lighthouse parenting” is and how it offers a research-backed framework for guiding kids to grow up as resilient, thriving adults What it means to be a “secure base” for our kids and the power of stability in fostering resilience in all children Why preparing kids for life's challenges starts with feeling unconditionally loved and truly known Why self-care, authentic modeling, and genuine repair are essential for strong parent-child relationships What it means to “actively see the best in our child” and why it matters  Resources mentioned About Dr. Ken Ginsburg Center for Parent and Teen Communication Fostering Resilience Lighthouse Parenting: Raising your Child with Loving Guidance for an Enduring Bond by Dr. Ken Ginsburg Congrats—You're Having a Teen!

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is at Georgia Tech where he talks with students about the fundamental questions of life, ethics, and spirituality. This episode highlights the importance of repentance, faith, and the transformative power of the Christian gospel. Segment 1: • Student attends an Episcopalian church but admits his faith doesn't impact his daily life. • He defends morality without biblical grounding and even jokes about wanting political opponents harmed. • Todd gently exposes student's contradictions, showing that ignoring God's commands doesn't erase guilt — it confirms it. Segment 2: • Student calls himself lukewarm and challenges Christianity's uniqueness among world religions. • Todd responds with the gospel's distinctiveness: only Christianity offers salvation through grace, not works. • Student intellectually engages but admits he's not living like Jesus is central — leaving his soul in dangerous territory. Segment 3: • An unnamed student confesses to lying, lust, and blasphemy, but insists being “better” should be enough. • Todd presses the reality: if God is just, then sin must be punished — and everyone's guilty. • Todd meets another student who agrees with much of the message but still thinks “being mostly good” should qualify him for heaven. Segment 4: • Todd explains the full gospel to the student — Jesus lived perfectly and died sacrificially to save sinners like him. • Student is told to go to God directly: repent, trust Christ alone, and be born again — not through religion, but real faith. • With tears in his eyes, student quietly listens, visibly affected, as Todd pleads with him to respond to the gospel. – Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!
