 What is missing?Inspirational Stories that give you power and faith to go through your crises.When we use our crises to connect with God, we will win in any case…Every crisis is the best chance to develop faith in God so that we gain peace in our mind.Hardships are really serving us … Find any hero or a great person who became not stronger and better through hardships…  One of these days…It was November, raining, cold and dark in Bremen/North-Germany… During my work, I got a telephone call from my lawyer… You have lost your lawsuit against your landlord, you have to leave your apartment this month… And I thought I never can lose this lawsuit because I had 11 whiteness … The reason was simple, corruption… Injustice as usual … After the work, I was desperate; I rode my bike back home during the rain. I had to cross a junction, pushed the button of the traffic light; waiting for the green signal… And then I intended to cross the road with the green light, but I could stop… The cars ignored the traffic light, and the cute girl behind me tried to cross the junction with her bike …She flew 5 meters through the air, and the car could stop in the right moment so that she got not under the wheel…I ran immediately to the girl, pulled her from beneath the car to the pedestrian. Gave her my coat and tried everything to relive her…  I could feel her pulse and looked that I calmed her down, and I was as lovely as I could be…In the meantime, the police were coming, and the emergency car came and took her to the hospital… The Police interrogated me… After an hour, pitch wet, I arrived at the home and was crying like crazy… I thanked God that I was not hurt in the accident. During that month, I also lost my job… and became bankrupt through the lost lawsuit. I found temporary shelter at my friends and then I moved 8 times in 2 years from one apartment to the next. What happens with the girl? I don't know… The police could not reach me because I was not registered for 2 years…Everything looked terrible, So, I could not find a new job, became unemployed, and I used this time to meditate every day 10 hours….Actually, God gave me time to rest and to meditate, and the government had to pay for it… That was very good… My Video: Episode 1 inspirational https://youtu.be/kRPZjrrFx24My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/Episode-1-inspirational.mp3

In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Dr. Glen Duerr answers questions related to his Genesis 29:31-30:24 sermon.The main idea for the sermon was: God works all things for His good purposes.Questions discussed in this episode: Why do names in the Bible matter?What would you say to someone who is dealing with infertility?Hardships can either bring us closer to God or further away from God. As Christ followers what are some ways we can assure we draw close to God in times of hardships?So, the Sunday's text about the birth of Jacob's twelve sons, begs the question of polygamy. God seems to have allowed it and used it for His purposes in this case. So why do we forbid it now?As a reminder we have created a place where you can send us your questions regarding the sermons or topics we discuss in these podcasts.

Lama Zopa Rinpoche discusses the seven attributes of a perfect human body and clarifies the points relating to caste and gender. He also discusses the eight ripening aspects that Lama Tsongkhapa emphasized in the Hymns of the Experience of the Path to Enlightenment.Rinpoche highlights the preciousness of this perfect human body. He says that it is more precious than the whole sky filled with wish-granting jewels. So, if we don't get to practice Dharma for even a second, this would be a great loss. Thus, we must bear hardships to practice Dharma. If you don't bear the hardships, you cannot practice Dharma, and then you will become lazy and waste your precious human body.Rinpoche reminds us that we experience hardships because we are in samsara. Our body and mind came from karma and delusion, so they are in the nature of suffering. If we don't practice Dharma because of the hardships, then we'll be in samsara forever. We'll never get free from the oceans of samsaric suffering.The duration of this perfect human rebirth is very short, and it can stop at any moment. Therefore, we need to develop our mind in the stages of the path to enlightenment.Rinpoche gives a clear description of how to meditate on the lamrim through daily meditations of the lower capable being. He stresses that it's important to meditate on several points (guru devotion, perfect human rebirth, impermanence-death, renunciation), as if you only meditate on one aspect throughout your life, you may not achieve even that realization. He also stresses that bodhicitta can only be attained after realizing renunciation.From April 10 to May 10, 2004, Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave extensive teachings during the Mahamudra Retreat at Buddha House in Australia. While the retreat focused on Mahamudra, Rinpoche also taught on a wide range of Lamrim topics. This retreat marked the beginning of a series of month-long retreats in Australia. Subsequent retreats were held in 2011, 2014, and 2018, hosted by the Great Stupa of Universal Compassion in Bendigo.Find out more about Lama Zopa Rinpoche, his teachings and projects at https://fpmt.org/

It do be like that sometimes, yk?Today's episode is a fully unscripted unfiltered unedited phone call to a friend kinda chat where I sit down and just ramble about what's on my mind. I share the lore of our MDW cruise trip and then dive into deep water of my emotions lately. Life has been a weird uncomfortable limbo where a lot of things are occurring at once, nothing terrible but nothing that leaves you feeling good about anything. I walk through the types of coping mechanisms we often fall towards in moments like these and share what I'm doing to get through it - because the only way out is through. Forgive me for not sharing the exact details as a lot of things to need to stay offline. I hope you get the gist and if it made no sense, congrats you're in a stable place! LOL

Navigating the complex landscape of spiritual warfare requires wisdom, discernment, and a solid foundation in Christ. Every believer faces it, but few know how to recognize when something is a spiritual attack versus life's natural hardships or God's refining work.We unpack the critical differences between spiritual warfare and other forms of struggle. Spiritual warfare often reveals itself through repetitive cycles of things going wrong, sudden intense discouragement, disruptions before ministry opportunities, or opposition that feels disproportionate to the situation. Yet not everything difficult is an attack—sometimes God allows hardship to deepen our faith, build character, or display His glory through our faithfulness, as seen in Job's story.Whether facing spiritual warfare, life's hardships, or God's refining process, our response remains consistent: sit in your identity, walk in obedience, and stand in truth. We're praying for you to have the discernment to recognize what you're facing and the peace to respond with confidence in Christ's victory.

On this deeply reflective and power-packed episode of TNT, Manny teams up once again with co-host Jonathan Cinelli of the People First Podcast to dig into some hard truths about why so many of us in construction—and in life—seek out struggle instead of embracing joy.We get real about:

From helping new military moms to the inspiring journey of stroke survivors reclaiming life, Dr. Sirven explores the power of support when it matters most.

Jonah 3:10-4:3

"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."Jesus changes everything, including the trials we face. 

S2E8: When we are on God's mission, with Him, we are assured that trials will (and do) come. What does the Bible have to say about joy in the midst of suffering? Specifically while on mission. John Fisher dives into God's word on that subject in Gods word, Christian history and your story!
