Jesus Christ carries out his office of King in two different ways. He carries it out spiritually in the hearts of his people, and he carries it out cosmically in history.  We're going to look now at the first of these: how Jesus Christ approaches the human heart. And 2 Corinthians 10 describes this approach in an interesting way. Let's look at this passage to see 1) what it's describing implicitly, and 2) what it's describing explicitly. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on January 23, 1994. Series: Understanding Jesus. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:1–6. Today's podcast is brought to you by Gospel in Life, the site for all sermons, books, study guides and resources from Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church.

Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine the New Law or the Law of the Gospel. Fr. Mike emphasizes that the New Law “fulfills, refines, surpasses, and leads the Old Law to its perfection.” He also explains how the New Law of Christ that is expressed through the Sermon on the Mount is perfected by the grace of the Holy Spirit and works through charity and the Sacraments. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1965-1969. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Segment 1: • Assassination of Charlie Kirk leaves us with hard questions: why and what now? • Exposes national fracture: free speech attacked, norms collapsing. • Beyond politics: a brother in Christ murdered, a soul lost reminds us of eternal stakes. Segment 2: • Response must be more than outrage—it must drive evangelism. • Politics shift when hearts are changed by Christ. • Five ways to engage: pray, organize, support, hold the rope, or go yourself. Segment 3: • Kids on campuses are detached from reality—spiritual soil is ready. • Pastors should address tragedies like this from the pulpit. • Reminder: persecution shouldn't surprise us—Jesus warned it would come. Segment 4: • Hope in grief: Charlie is with Christ—happier than we can imagine. • Darkness is real, but the Gospel is the only cure. • Students: courageously hold to truth in classrooms and on campuses. ___ Thanks for listening!

What would it look like if the Church truly lived out the radical faith found in the Book of Acts? In this compelling message, Francis Chan urges believers to go beyond passively hearing God's word and begin living lives marked by deep repentance, bold obedience, and authentic transformation. He challenges the Church to break free from spiritual complacency and embrace a lifestyle that reflects the sacrificial, Spirit-empowered way of the early Christians. Chan paints a vision of a community where older generations uplift the young, resources are freely surrendered for Kingdom work, and God's supernatural provision follows fearless steps of faith. This is a passionate plea for revival rooted in humility, surrender, and a willingness to give up comfort and control. The result? A Church that is fully alive, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and unafraid to dive headfirst into the unknown for the sake of the Gospel.

If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)YouTube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comColossians 3Believers must set their hearts and minds on heavenly things, not earthly desires. Having died to their old lives and been raised with Christ, they are called to cast off sinful behaviors like immorality, anger, and slander. Instead, they should clothe themselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Forgiveness is key, just as Jesus forgave them. Above all virtues, love binds everything together in perfect unity. Paul emphasizes letting Christ's peace rule in their hearts and encourages believers to be thankful. The message of Christ should dwell richly among them, expressed through teaching, wisdom, and songs of praise. In all they do, they are to act in the name of the Lord Jesus. Lastly, Paul addresses family dynamics, encouraging wives, husbands, and children to embody Christ's presence within the home. If we are raised in Christ, we must flee old habits that no longer define us in Him, like sexual sin or bitterness toward others. In our daily lives, we should actively choose purity of heart, compassion, and forgiveness, even when it is hard. When tensions rise at home, work, or with friends, we must remember to let Christ's peace guide our responses. Love must be the foundation of everything we do, being featured in our family. In every situation, whether speaking, working, or serving, we are called to do it all in Jesus' name with thankfulness. True transformation is about growing into the image of Christ—reflecting His character and honoring Him in every relationship, every decision, and every moment.   Loving Father, thank You for raising us to new life in Christ. Help us to set our hearts on things above and to let go of anything that pulls us away from You. Clothe us with character traits that emulate Christ. Empower us to forgive as You have forgiven us, and let Your peace rule in our hearts. May love guide all we do, and may the message of Christ dwell richly within us, especially in our marriage and homes. Whatever we say or do today, let it be in the name of Jesus, giving thanks to You always.  Thought Questions: What helps you keep seeking things above and set your mind on heavenly things? How is this more than morning prayer and bible study? In what way is love the perfect bond of unity? What helps you show patience, compassion, and forgiveness for those who wrong you? “It is the Lord Christ whom you serve.” Why is this mindset vital in the home, with marriages and relationships between parents and children?

Stand in Boldness – An Acts 4 Response | KIB 497 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing YouTube Description In this powerful episode of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake share deep insights on the assassination of Charlie Kirk, its spiritual implications, and what it means for the Body of Christ in these prophetic days. This discussion explores martyrdom in the last days, spiritual strongholds, the role of Leviathan, Jezebel, and Python in twisting truth, and the need for believers to stand in boldness and prayer. The Lakes also draw parallels between Stephen's martyrdom in Acts and today's events, encouraging the remnant to seek God's direction, refuse fear, and be instruments of revival. Key Takeaway: Heaven has drawn a line, and God is standing up. The remnant must respond with prayer, boldness, and unwavering trust in the Lord as we prepare for one of the greatest moves of God in history.

It’s a message that’s easy enough for a child to understand … yet it’s deep enough that its complexity still confounds some of the most educated people in the world.

Would you wash your enemy's feet? In John 13, Jesus does something shocking He kneels down to wash the feet of His disciples, including the one who would betray Him. This moment shows us that true greatness isn't found in power or position but in humility, service, and love. In this message, we look at how Jesus used His final hours before the cross to model service over status, and what that means for us today. When we follow His example, even toward people who hurt or oppose us, we reflect the heart of Christ and point others to the Gospel.

Everyone is broken...

The Parable of the Dishonest Manager.You will hear Kiri and my confusion: a rich man is considering firing his manager only for the manager to go to those he was working with to slash the amount owed to the rich man. He's commended for this? He's a bad manager, but is it a good thing to cut people's debts in half? Sarah Stenson teaches us how we're caught in trying to determine what's good and what's bad in this parable when it's actually Jesus replacing the idols in your heart with faith. He is in control of your heart, not you. CARE OF SOULS - ADDICTIONIn Care of Souls, a special mini-series podcast from Luther House of Study, Lutheran pastors and theologians come together to explore the deeply personal and pastoral task of preaching to and caring for those struggling with life's challenging situations: addiction, death, family disharmony, and more. Rooted in the theology of the cross and the Lutheran tradition of radical grace, this series offers both theological depth and practical guidance for pastors, church workers, and lay leaders.With conversations, real-life stories, and reflections from the front lines of ministry, Care of Souls equips listeners to enter the broken places of addiction not with easy answers, but with the crucified and risen Christ.Because in the end, it's not about fixing people—it's about preaching the Gospel.Listen to Care of Souls wherever you listen to podcasts or on the Luther House website: Care of Souls - AddictionGOSPEL Luke 16:1-131 Then Jesus said to the disciples, "There was a rich man who had a manager, and charges were brought to him that this man was squandering his property. 2 So he summoned him and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give me an accounting of your management, because you cannot be my manager any longer.' 3 Then the manager said to himself, 'What will I do, now that my master is taking the position away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg. 4 I have decided what to do so that, when I am dismissed as manager, people may welcome me into their homes.' 5 So, summoning his master's debtors one by one, he asked the first, 'How much do you owe my master?' 6 He answered, 'A hundred jugs of olive oil.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it fifty.' 7 Then he asked another, 'And how much do you owe?' He replied, 'A hundred containers of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill and make it eighty.' 8 And his master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly; for the children of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than are the children of light. 9 And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of dishonest wealth so that when it is gone, they may welcome you into the eternal homes.10 "Whoever is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much; and whoever is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much. 11 If then you have not been faithful with the dishonest wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful with what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own? 13 No slave can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other.

Join us for the first episode of our new series, where we dive deep into the essential beliefs about Jesus and what it truly means to follow Him. In this episode, we explore the confusion surrounding various denominations and interpretations of Christianity, and we aim to clarify what is fundamental to our faith. Our host shares a personal stories leading to reflections on the importance of understanding the core tenets of Christianity. We tackle the critical question: What do you have to believe about Jesus to genuinely follow Him? Throughout the series, we will strip Christianity back to its foundational beliefs, helping you discern what is essential versus what is peripheral. Whether you're questioning your faith, deconstructing your beliefs, or seeking a deeper understanding, this series is designed for you. Don't miss out on this important conversation that aims to provide clarity and encourage a mature faith. Be sure to join us for the upcoming weeks as we continue to explore the fundamentals of following Jesus. Topics Covered: The confusion within various Christian denominations The importance of understanding fundamental beliefs Personal reflections on faith and injury The essential question: Who is Jesus? The significance of Jesus as God's final King ----------------------------------- Read along with our chosen scripture: Matthew 16:13–17 With so many denominations and opinions on what it means to be a Christian, it can be difficult to determine what is fundamental to the faith. In this series, we'll look at what's essential--and what's not--when it comes to following Jesus. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are an alternative to church as usual. Our Sunday worship service is approximately a 75-minute experience designed to introduce people to the message of Jesus and equip believers to live their lives in response to the Gospel while their kids enjoy one of our safe children's environments. Centerpoint is designed to meet you wherever you are on the journey whether you are just checking out the "church thing" or you are a committed Christ follower. Centerpoint is a casual environment that combines today's music with creative media and relevant teaching. We hope you will visit us at Centerpoint Church regardless of what your past church experience has looked like.

This episode of Red in 30 takes aim at one of the most common church phrases—“God told me.” The discussion points out that while this phrase dominates Christian culture, Jesus Himself never used it in the Gospels. Instead of saying, “God told me to tell you,” He simply spoke truth directly, fully aligned with the Father. Even when a voice came from heaven, Jesus clarified that it wasn't for His sake but for the people listening. The point is simple: if you are the Word, you don't need to keep chasing words—you live aligned with them.The episode unpacks how modern Christianity often overcomplicates “hearing from God” with lists of steps: pray more, get quiet, meditate, wait for a voice. While none of these are necessarily wrong, they can distract from the deeper truth. In the Gospels, Jesus never handed out a formula for hearing God. Instead, He modeled perfect alignment—showing that sin, defined as “missing the mark,” is less about bad actions and more about being out of place. If we were walking in alignment, we wouldn't need extra signs or voices to redirect us.The conversation digs into key scriptures, especially the transfiguration, where the voice from heaven declared: “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear ye Him.” That command shifts the focus away from chasing mystical confirmations and onto listening to Jesus directly. To hear Him is to see ourselves rightly, because He is both the way and the picture of what humanity was designed to be. The failure isn't that God has stopped speaking—it's that many skip over Jesus' red words in search of something “fresh,” missing the very alignment that makes everything clear.The episode closes with a challenge: stop chasing principles, remedies, and the next spiritual formula. If you're not hearing Jesus, you're not truly hearing God. His words are already alive, already flesh, already present. To embrace them is to become the Word in action rather than a seeker of endless words. The bottom line: hearing God doesn't begin with mystical experiences; it begins with hearing and embodying Jesus. Get full access to REDIN30 at redin30.substack.com/subscribe

In this Bible Story, Jesus calls the twelve disciples. They are not chosen because of their skills or accomplishments, wisdom or prowess. Jesus chooses a ragtag group of misfits and outcasts. Through them, the kingdom of God spreads across the entire world. This story is inspired by Matthew 10:1-4, 16, 28-32, 37-39; Matthew 12:9-15; Mark 3:14-19; Luke 6:6-16.

As He entered He saw a man with a withered hand. The Pharisees were eager to catch Him in a trap on the Sabbath, but Jesus knew this and would not be stopped from doing good to a man in need. After this, Jesus and His followers went over to a mountain where He spoke words of encouragement to them and chose twelve of them to become His disciples.

Read OnlineStanding by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. John 19:25Our Blessed Mother, the Mother of the Son of God, loved her Son with a perfect love. She enfleshed every virtue to perfection. Her love for her Son was a love that was beyond what we could ever imagine. She conceived Him miraculously, bore Him in her womb, gave birth to Him, nursed Him, raised Him and loved Him throughout His life. It's difficult to even imagine the depth and beauty of the love she had for Jesus. Generally speaking, a mother's love is powerful, unwavering, deep and filled with tenderness. Try to imagine the Immaculate Heart of Mother Mary and the amazing depth of love alive in her heart.Imagine also the scene depicted in the Gospel passage quoted above. This loving mother stood at the foot of the Cross, gazing upon her crucified Son, continuing to exude every motherly virtue. And because it's hard to fathom the depth of her love for her Son, it's also very hard to imagine the depth of sorrow and interior suffering she endured as she watched the cruelty toward Jesus unfold. All she could do in that moment was stand by Him and with Him in this moment of extreme agony. Her love was expressed, in that moment, by her fidelity to Him.What's beautiful to know is that love, sorrow, compassion and suffering were united as one within her Immaculate Heart. Within the beauty of her heart was every human emotion, fueled by God's grace, enabling her to give to her Son the greatest gift she had: her motherhood. She was a true mother throughout her life, and, in this moment, as her Son hung on the Cross, her motherhood culminated in a perfect human expression.We all long to be loved by another. To give and receive love is the greatest gift that we can give and receive. Love is what we were made for and is the source of our fulfillment in life. We can be certain that as Mother Mary stood at the foot of the Cross, her human heart experienced the greatest fulfillment ever known. Her heart was fulfilled because she exercised her motherly love to perfection.Gaze upon the image of the Mother of God this day. Ponder, especially, all that she would have experienced within her human heart. Though theologians could write volumes on this meditation, the best way to understand her heart of love is through prayerful meditation. Ask our Blessed Mother to reveal her heart to you today. Find some time to sit in silent adoration of this holy image of perfect motherly love. As you do, know two things. First, know that Mother Mary has this same depth of love for you. Do not doubt it. Her heart burns with compassion as she gazes upon you, even in your sin. Second, know that our Blessed Mother's love must also fill your heart and overflow into the lives of others. We all must allow her compassion, concern, fidelity and mercy to flow through our hearts. Who do you need to love with the heart of our Blessed Mother? Seek to receive the love in the heart of the Mother of God and seek to give that love. Receive it in and then allow it to flow forth. There is truly nothing in this world more beautiful and awe inspiring than the holy image of this love. My Immaculate and Sorrowful Mother, you stood at the foot of the Cross of your Son with the perfection of a mother's love. Your heart was filled with a sorrow that was mixed with every holy virtue. Pray for me that I may understand this love more fully, so that I may also open up my own heart to your love. As I do, I pray that I will become an instrument of the love in your heart toward those in my life who suffer and are in most need of tender compassion and mercy. Sorrowful Heart of Mary, pray for us. Jesus, I trust in You.Daderot, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc.

Acts 8:25-40

As this week unfolded, I'm more convinced than ever: there has never been a greater need for the Church of Jesus Christ than right now. Jesus promised, “I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” In this message from 2 Timothy 1:6–12, Pastor Jeff shows how taking ground fortifies the church—by stirring up every believer's gifts, living with Spirit-given courage (not timidity), boldly proclaiming the Gospel, and entrusting our lives and mission to Christ. We're not launching a campaign for buildings or chairs; we're advancing the cause of Christ. If we had three more campuses today, they'd be full—because God is moving. Join us as we deploy gifts, step forward in faith, and make Jesus known in our families, our city, and our culture. Speaker: Jeff Schwarzentraub

What if marriage was never just about two people but about something greater?

(Ecclesiastes 4:4-6) We all feel a pressure to measure up, compete and justify ourselves. It's one of the heaviest, most exhausting parts of life. The good news is that the very thing that we've been trying to secure for ourselves, has already been secured for us by Jesus.  

Acts 8:25-40

Cain, the first to be born into a world riddled with sin, killed his brother Abel in a jealous rage. Cain's birth came with hope, hope that was quickly shattered. But there would be a greater hero born.  Sign up for special devotionals at StoriesoftheMessiah.com.

2 Corinthians 1:1-2 - Speaker: Lukus Counterman - Welcome to our new expository series through the book of 2 Corinthians! For the next two semesters we are going to look at Paul's most personal epistle. It's a letter that highlights different expressions of gospel paradox. Paul will talk about life through death, wealth in poverty, comfort in affliction, and strength in weakness. In Jesus' upside-down kingdom things don't always play out the way we'd expect. May the Lord lead us and grow us through our study of 2 Corinthians.
