Throughout the Eternal One's love story the Bible there are many references to how creation is an expression of Himself. How His handiwork reveals His glory and majesty. Like a master craftsman, the Eternal One spoke light into existence, and breathed life into His creation. Yet even in its damaged state, the entire cosmos still has elements of its creator. So let us begin this journey through Psalm 19 and see the handiwork of the Eternal One. As you listen be blessed, empowered and transformed in Jesus name.Send us a textFor more information and free resources visit our website jesuslovestheworld.info Also connect with us in discipleship, watch our videos, follow us on facebook or send us an email

Psalm 19:1-14 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky aboveproclaims his handiwork. 2 Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. 3 There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. 4 Theirvoicegoes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent forthe sun,5 which comes out likea bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy. 6 Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them, and there is nothing hidden from its heat. 7 The law of theLordis perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of theLordissure, making wisethe simple; 8 the precepts of theLordare right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of theLordispure, enlightening the eyes; 9 the fear of theLordis clean, enduring forever; the rulesof theLordaretrue, and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are they thangold, even muchfine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings ofthe honeycomb. 11 Moreover, by them is your servant warned;in keeping them there is great reward. 12 Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent fromhidden faults. 13 Keep back your servant also frompresumptuous sins; let them not havedominion over me! Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression. 14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, OLord, myrock and myredeemer. Key Words: Glory, Heavens, Handiwork, Speech, Law, Word, Rock, Redeemer Keystone Verse: Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.

Do you ever get a commercial jingle stuck in your head? They're catchy, and sometimes we quote or sing them without really knowing what the product is. Sometimes Bible verses can be that way-- even monumentally important Bible verses. We know the verses, but we're not sure about the original and intended context and meaning. In this first of a series of sermons on Paul's letter to the church at Ephesus, Pastor Chris takes a look at several well-known Bible verses and Paul's intention for them. In this teaching we did an overview of the first three chapters and revealed God's big mystery for the world. Join us!

In the eighteenth century, women's contributions to empire took fewer official forms than those collected in state archives. Their traces were recorded in material ways, through the ink they applied to paper or the artefacts they created with muslin, silk threads, feathers, and shells. Handiwork, such as sewing, knitting, embroidery, and other crafts, formed a familiar presence in the lives and learning of girls and women across social classes, and it was deeply connected to colonialism. In Novels, Needleworks, and Empire: Material Entanglements in the Eighteenth-Century Atlantic World (Yale University Press, 2024) Dr. Chloe Wigston Smith follows the material and visual images of the Atlantic world that found their way into the hands of women and girls in Britain and early America—in the objects they made, the books they held, the stories they read—and in doing so adjusted and altered the form and content of print and material culture. A range of artefacts made by women, including makers of colour, brought the global into conversation with domestic crafts and consequently placed images of empire and colonialism within arm's reach. Together, fiction and handicrafts offer new evidence of women's material contributions to the home's place within the global eighteenth century, revealing the rich and complex connections between the global and the domestic. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

On July 12, 2022, scientists awaited the first images of deepest space from the new James Webb Space Telescope. The state-of-the-art telescope can look farther into the universe than mankind has ever looked before. Suddenly a breathtaking image emerges: a color space-scape of the Carina Nebula, never before seen like this. One NASA astronomer quoted Carl Sagan, a noted atheist: “Somewhere, something incredible is waiting.” Sometimes people can look God in the eye and not see Him. But the psalmist David looked into the sky and knew exactly what he was seeing: “You have set your glory in the heavens” (Psalm 8:1). Sagan was right that “something incredible is waiting,” but he failed to acknowledge what David clearly perceived: “When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them” (vv. 3-4). When we see images of deepest space, we are amazed, not so much because of technology, but because we’re witnessing the handiwork of God. We marvel because in the vastness of creation God has made us “rulers over the works of [his] hands” (v. 8:6). Indeed something “incredible is waiting”—God, waiting to bring believers in Jesus to Him. That’s the most breathtaking image of all.
As I watched my corgi, Red, bravely navigate through a foot of snow, his determination mirrored our own quests for purpose and belonging. You're invited to join us in the latest Foxhole Symphony episode, where we intertwine humor with profound insights, exploring our place within God's grand narrative. Through candid reflection and the practicality of journaling, we uncover the transformative power of a life script authored by our Father. Our conversation leads us into the heart of authentic community, where presence trumps productivity, and where each step is an act of faith and discovery.This session isn't just about stories; it's a deep dive into the masterpieces we are, as described in Ephesians 2:10, and the artistry of God's work within and through us. We're not alone on this artistic journey—our 'sages' and mentors guide us, echoing the wisdom found in Chris Bruno's book, "Sage." They remind us to listen closely and act on the heavenly guidance that shapes our path. Together, we navigate the challenges and seasons of redefinition, seeking clarity on the narrative God has written for our lives.Finally, we shed light on the solidarity of brotherhood and the hope found in shared spiritual battles. In the spaces where we can be real and vulnerable, we discover strength. We share tales of spiritual warfare, the importance of surrender, and how we find courage in the promise of victory. This episode is not just a conversation; it's an invitation to recognize ourselves as God's handiwork, to step into the good works He has prepared in advance for us, and to do so with the support of a community that believes in being 'victorious together'.Support the showWe have BIG plans at Foxhole Symphony and sure could use your financial support.
