When we're stuck in difficult circumstances, we'll often call on God to help get us out. But Dr. Tony Evans points out that, even if the storms of life are getting worse, we may already be right where God wants us.

In 2016, a string of professionals in the quiet mining town of Krugersdorp, South Africa, started disappearing after appointments with new clients. The killer was a team of believers doing the bidding of a woman who claimed to speak for God herself: Cecilia Steyn. Join us as we unpack the chilling details of the Krugersdorp Killings, a case involving a massive financial con and a manipulative cult leader. Join us as we explore how one woman was able to gain control over her followers and convince them to commit a series of shocking murders. Join us as we discuss the terrifying power of this religious manipulation and how the cult's methods were similar to the dangerous influence wielded by figures like Charles Manson. This is the story of how a twisted belief system led to an entirely preventable tragedy. Check-out bonus episodes up on Spotify and Apple podcast now!

Bishop Robert Barron’s Sermons - Catholic Preaching and Homilies
Friends, for this Thirtieth Sunday of Ordinary Time, we are treated to the wonderful and deeply challenging parable of the Pharisee and the publican from Luke 18. We are meant to see in this deceptively simple story a basic and clarifying principle in the spiritual order—namely, that the ego is meant to revolve around God, not God around the ego. And this might not be immediately clear: Sometimes the people that look the most religious actually aren't very religious, and the people that look a million miles from God are actually in the right spiritual space.

What if the cure for cancer, diabetes, and chronic disease has been hiding in Scripture all along—not as metaphor, but as literal medicine growing in your backyard? What if the Bible has laid out the best practices for our nutrition?Dr. Josh Axe (bestselling author and functional medicine practitioner) and Jordan Rubin (founder of Garden of Life, author of The Maker's Diet) join us to discuss their groundbreaking book The Biblio Diet, which synthesizes 6,000 years of biblical nutrition into practical health wisdom for modern Christians. Both men survived death-defying diagnoses—Jordan overcame terminal Crohn's disease and metastatic cancer, while Josh recovered from a spinal infection that doctors said would permanently disable him.We discuss what Solomon actually ate (spoiler: bread and red meat—things no modern diet recommends), why the food pyramid is inverted, how Big Pharma's "sorcery" (pharmakeia in Greek) has deceived nations, and why pork and shellfish aren't in God's definition of "food."But the revelation that changes everything? Ezekiel 47:12 and Revelation 22:2 both describe the Tree of Life's leaves as medicine for healing nations. Not metaphorically. Literally. Join us for a journey deep into the scriptures, offering a remarkable deep dive into ancient truths for modern bodies in need of restoration.

In part two of this conversation with Pastor Philip Anthony Mitchell, we go even deeper into what it means to keep your faith steady when following God feels hard.We unpack what it looks like to stay rooted in truth when emotions run high, to surrender control when the outcome is unclear, and to believe that God's still writing beauty from what feels broken.Pastor Philip shares powerful biblical insight on endurance, spiritual maturity, and the refining fire that shapes every believer who chooses faith over comfort.If you've ever felt stretched, tested, or uncertain of what God is doing in your waiting, this conversation will meet you right where you are, reminding you that faith isn't failing when it's being refined.

Segment 1 • Dr. Jason Lisle distinguishes astrology's superstition from astronomy's worship-worthy science. • The James Webb Telescope's discoveries confirm creationist predictions. • The universe shouts intelligent design and divine order—not cosmic accident. Segment 2 • “Intelligent Design” without Christ stops short of truth; science points to the Savior. • Every Big Bang “fix” (inflation, antimatter, etc.) exposes faith in speculation over observation. • Scripture alone makes sense of the cosmos—science confirms it; sin corrupts it. Segment 3 • Denying a literal Adam dismantles the gospel: no actual fall means no need for a Redeemer. • Genesis reads as history, not myth; Jesus and the apostles affirmed it as fact. • The cross makes no sense if sin didn't enter through one real man. Segment 4 • Old-earth models (Day-Age, Gap Theory) break Hebrew grammar and biblical chronology. • Death before sin contradicts God's “very good” creation and the atonement itself. • The timeline debate isn't about science—it's about trusting God's Word over man's ideas. ___ Thanks for listening!

We live in a culture that constantly craves applause, where even sincere acts of faith can quietly become performances aimed at earning approval. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar remind believers that this desire for recognition is deeply rooted in idolatry and must be surrendered to God. The guys encourage Christians to examine their motives, especially in ministry, and to serve out of love rather than a desire for recognition. Preaching should be centered on God's Word, not on entertainment or showmanship. While humor and illustrations can be helpful, they should never distract from the truth or shift the focus away from Christ. The rise of social media exacerbates this struggle, training hearts to equate value with attention; yet, the call of the gospel is to live for God's glory alone. True freedom comes through the cross, where believers are already entirely accepted by God. Rooted in that security, we can walk humbly, pray continually, and serve faithfully, knowing that obedience and love—not applause—are the marks of a life that pleases Him.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Romans 11:1–14 The descendants of Abraham are God's chosen people, but when they rejected Jesus as their Messiah, God set them aside and allowed others to form the church. How do we know God has not set aside His people, the nation of Israel, forever? Join Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he answers this question with four evidences from Romans 11. God still has a plan for the Jews. He keeps His promises. He hasn't cast you off either. Trust in His inscrutable plan. Knowledge of the Lord and unending peace will cover the earth!

Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/ramdass and get on your way to being your best self.This special episode of Here and Now celebrates the new book, There Is No Other, a collection of teachings taken from Ram Dass' lectures. In these times, Ram Dass' teachings on wholeness and unity are more needed than ever. We begin with a clip of Ram Dass exploring the mindset of “us versus them.” Who exactly is us? Who is them? Raghu and Parvati reflect on how this clip is central to the theme of There Is No Other.The next clip features Ram Dass talking about the balance of heart and mind. Sharing a powerful real-life example, he explores how we cut ourselves off when we veil our hearts. Raghu and Parvati share how the book is about walking a path to harmony and wholeness.The third clip finds Ram Dass examining Ramana Maharshi's concept of “God, Guru, Self,” and how we can begin to appreciate that the Spirit is everywhere. Parvati and Raghu discuss how Ram Dass' new book speaks to this really important moment in our lives.We end with a brief clip of Ram Dass talking about the path of love. “Finally,” he says, “you become an environment, a vibratory rate…” “So the mind, if it gets too strong, out of balance with the heart, shuts down all the information that the heart can give. It cuts you off from your wisdom, really. You don't even see all the stuff. I mean, you and I are simultaneously existing on so many planes of reality, but because of the power of our minds, we keep limiting which realities are real, and the rest of it we either treat as error or we don't even notice. It's so deeply unconscious, we just don't even notice all the rest of us, of ourselves.” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today, I'm talking about one of the biggest things that often paralyzes entrepreneurs, fear. Fear can show up in so many forms: fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of not being enough, or fear of what others might think. And while it might feel like fear is stopping all your progress and keeping you stuck, I want you to remember this, fear does not release you from your calling. The purpose God placed on your life and business doesn't disappear just because you're afraid. In fact, it's often in those fearful moments that you're being stretched, strengthened, and prepared for what's next. In today's episode, I want to help you face that fear head-on and move forward with faith and confidence. You'll walk away feeling encouraged, equipped, and ready to take bold steps toward the vision you've been called to, no matter what obstacles try to stand in your way.

Imagine being unjustly imprisoned for months, watching your family and people suffer, and asking the piercing question: "O God, where art thou?" The revelations given to Joseph Smith in the darkest dungeon of his life are some of the most beautiful and powerful in all scripture. Summary: In this profound episode, we explore the transcendent revelations of Doctrine and Covenants 121, 122, and 123, written from the confines of Liberty Jail. D&C 121: The Power of Righteousness. We delve into Joseph's heartfelt plea, "How long shall thy hand be stayed?" The Lord answers with a staggering lesson: authority and power are inseparably connected with the principles of righteousness. We analyze the fatal trap of "unrighteous dominion"—covering our sins, gratifying pride, and exercising compulsion—which instantly causes the heavens to withdraw. Crucially, we learn the six principles of Godly Influence: persuasion, long-suffering, gentleness, meekness, love unfeigned, and kindness. This section is a master class in Christlike leadership. D&C 122: Eternal Perspective in Suffering. The Lord reassures Joseph: "My son, peace be unto thy soul." He validates every trial Joseph has faced, from false accusations to the "jaws of hell," and promises that "all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good." This section confirms that the "Son of Man hath descended below them all," granting Him perfect knowledge to comfort us in our extremities. D&C 123: The Duty to Record. Finally, we discuss the duty to collect a "catalog of catastrophes" detailing the Saints' sufferings and abuses. This was not for vengeance, but to "leave the whole nation without excuse" and to help those who are "kept from the truth because they know not where to find it." The lesson culminates with the principle of total effort: "cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God."

Jase explains why Tom Petty's “I Won't Back Down” is his new walk-up song, and Zach pitches a wives-included “Unashamed Live” tour. Jase proves that Unashamed Nation is the best group of fans out there, and he reins in his rabbit holes long enough for the guys to finally dive into John 18's illegal proceedings against Jesus, contrasting earthly power with sacrificial victory. They connect Pilate's mockery of Jesus and the Barabbas exchange to the mission that carries the Word of God to the ends of the earth.

The Wilderness E8 –– In the Bible, God often turns wilderness wanderings into times of testing, purification, and preparation for returning to the garden land. The tragedy of the Hebrew Bible, however, is that when people do return to the garden, they keep following their own distorted wisdom and desires. This is why the beginning of every gospel account features a wild prophet named John, who is out in the wilderness by the Jordan River, preaching a baptism of repentance. It's a symbolic reenactment of when God purified the exodus generation through the deadly chaos waters and treacherous desert. But then Jesus approaches John, also asking to be baptized. Why? In this episode, Jon and Tim unpack the background and ministry of John the Baptizer and how Jesus' baptism connects to his larger Kingdom mission.CHAPTERSRecap of Theme and Setup for John the Baptizer (0:00-15:53)John's Background and Words to the Pharisees (15:53-38:03)Why Jesus Participates in a Baptism of Repentance (38:03-44:47)The Heavenly Announcement After Jesus' Baptism (44:47-51:33)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESThe Complete Dead Sea Scrolls in English, translated by Geza VermesYou can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Lunch Break ft.

When people see the evidence of great evils and atrocities, they automatically turn into philosophers. They start to ask the metaphysical questions. How could this have happened? Why doesn't God do something about evil, about the wickedness and violence that's here? Why doesn't God do something about the brokenness of the world? Exodus 17 tells us that God has. This passage tells us about a trial that happened years ago, and it was the most remarkable trial in the history of the world. Look at it carefully: 1) there's a lawsuit, 2) then there's a trial, and 3) then there's an execution. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 9, 1995. Series: The Seven Deadly Sins. Scripture: Exodus 17:1-7.

Fall is so packed full and it can be hard to prioritize our bodies. And what does it even mean to be a good steward of our bodies without obsessing over them? Jordan Lee Dooley is back to help us with that today! She's in a totally new season of life — mom of three under three. She opens up about how so many of us wrestle with this idea that our bodies are failing us and this new understanding of what it really means to steward our bodies — not just like them or fix them, but truly honor them as part of the calling God's given us. Her new book, Be Good to Your Body, dives deep into that idea. I can't wait for you to hear this conversation. If you're following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we're on page 114.

This season, we've been talking about what to do when you look around at your life and think, “Wait… this is not what I ordered.” Maybe things didn't turn out the way you thought they would — and now you're asking those big, scary, beautiful questions: Who am I now? What do I want? Where do I go from here? But for a lot of us who grew up in church, those questions can feel… complicated. Because somewhere along the way, we were taught that it's wrong to want things. That it's dangerous to trust ourselves. That being a “good Christian woman” means making yourself smaller — dying to yourself, staying quiet, and serving everyone else first. Today we're having a conversation I think so many of us need — about what faith actually asks of us. Our guest is Dr. Alison Cook, a therapist, host of The Best of You podcast, and author of the bestselling book by the same name. Alison is an expert at the intersection of faith and psychology. She helps women heal from past wounds, develop a strong sense of self, and experience a loving God who is for them — not asking them to disappear. We're going to talk about what self-denial really means, how to know when faith has turned into self-erasure, and what it looks like to follow Jesus without losing yourself in the process. You ready? Let's jump into my conversation with Alison! Mentioned in this episode:
In August of 1966, two men were found dead on a hillside in Niterói, Brazil. They wore matching suits, raincoats… and homemade lead masks that covered their eyes. Next to them: two towels, an empty bottle, and a single cryptic note— “16:30 be at the specified location. 18:30 ingest capsules. After effect, protect metals. Await signal. Mask.” No sign of struggle. No cause of death. No explanation.What were they waiting for? A message from beyond? A UFO? God? Or just the lethal consequences of their own experiment? This week, Brohio dives deep into The Lead Masks Case—a story of science, spirituality, and the terrifying edge between faith and madness.

Have you ever considered that simply being content is a great way to praise God? On today's program, Joyce discusses the attitude of contentment.
The crowd following Jesus expected God's kingdom to appear imminently. To refine their thinking, Jesus told the parable of the ten minas. On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg examines this parable to explain how to live with significance until Christ returns. ----------------------------------------- • Click here and look for "FROM THE SERMON" to stream or read the full message. • This program is part of the series ‘A Study in Luke, Volume 10' • Learn more about our current resource, request your copy with a donation of any amount. •If you or someone you know is in a season of suffering, be encouraged!

In this episode, Dr. Shane Owens, a scholar of St. Augustine, joins us to discuss the power of memory. Together, we explore how memory is a place to where we withdraw to understand our identity, shape our whole self, and begin to see God working in our lives. Memory exists for the purpose of hope and we not only talk about how the Scriptures and Eucharist bear the memories of the Church, but also how our sorrowful memories can become sources of hope.

Dave Pivonka and Dr. Shane Owens) Heather's Other One Thing - Franciscan University's Festival of Praise Sister Miriam's One Thing - The Archdiocese of Sydney, Australia Michelle's One Thing - Return to the Heart: The Biblical Spirituality of St. Augustine's Confessions by Dr. Shane Owens Michelle's Other One Thing - Heaven for Me! by St. Thérèse of Lisieux Dr. Shane Owens' One Thing - Bible Across America from the St. Paul Center Journal Questions: Am I savoring or swallowing the gifts God has given me? What core memories of my life have been rewritten by God? What sorrowful mysteries of my life feel too complicated to ponder? Where in your memory do you need to ask Jesus where He was present in it? Discussion Questions: How can you hone your spiritual palate to be present to the good that God is doing in your life? When have you experienced the living power of memories? How have your memories been a source of hope? How are you being invited to slow down and ponder? Quote to Ponder: “The heart is the dwelling-place where I am, where I live; according to the Semitic or Biblical expression, the heart is the place "to which I withdraw." The heart is our hidden center, beyond the grasp of our reason and of others; only the Spirit of God can fathom the human heart and know it fully. The heart is the place of decision, deeper than our psychic drives. It is the place of truth, where we choose life or death. It is the place of encounter, because as image of God we live in relation: it is the place of covenant.” (CCC 2563) Scripture for Lectio: “But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart.” (Luke 2:19) Sponsor - Hallow: Get 3 months free of Hallow at hallow.com/abide and enjoy over 10,000 audioguided prayers, meditations, and music.

Segment 1 • Dr. Andrew Walker calls the breakdown of the family the defining moral crisis of our time. • Marriage decline fuels social chaos—poverty, instability, and moral confusion. • God's design for marriage and family is not arbitrary—it's the foundation of ordered liberty and human flourishing. Segment 2 • Natural law exposes that everyone already knows right from wrong—it's written on our hearts. • Even secular thinkers are waking up: moral order only works if it's built on God's image of man. • From gender ideology to justice systems, every moral crisis goes back to rejecting Genesis 1. Segment 3 • A “Christian nation” without conversion is just moral window dressing. • True change comes through evangelism, not state-enforced religion. • Romans 13 defines government's limits—protect order, not dictate theology. Segment 4 • The Bible gives the state a sword, not a soul: maintain justice, don't play savior. • Big government creates dependency; strong churches create stability. • Christians should champion a small-state, big-church vision—pray for rulers, evangelize freely, live humbly. ___ Thanks for listening!

During Jesus’ earthly ministry, He didn’t restore sight to just one eye. He didn’t feed most of the 5,000. He didn’t calm the storm on only half the Sea of Galilee. And He didn’t give part of His life on the cross to pay for some of our sins. As someone has said, “Sin had left a crimson stain, and He didn’t wash it light pink.” Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how Jesus gave His all . . . and the only appropriate response from us is to give our all. Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California.

God's faithfulness does not spring up from sentimentality or pity, but rather His covenantal love for His people. The muscle of His faithfulness is love and mercy. As He has shown His faithfulness, we turn and reflect it to the world.

Romans 10:1–21 While Romans 9 focuses on the sovereignty of God, Romans 10 emphasizes our freedom to accept or reject God's offer. Tune in to hear Pastor Chuck Swindoll discuss the need for faith and our responsibility to share the gospel with others. Because it is offered to all, people are responsible to respond. If you believe, share it with others and pray. If you don't believe, respond to the truth. Leave the rest up to God!

This week’s episode is one of the most emotional and powerful yet. Granger sits down with his wife, Amber Smith to talk about the release of her brand-new book, The Girl on the Bathroom Floor — a raw and redemptive story of grief, surrender, and finding God’s purpose in unimaginable loss. Together, they open up about the pain of losing their son River, the healing that came through Amber’s faith, and how God met her in her deepest sorrow with the words: “Enough. Seek Me.” Amber shares the meaning behind the book’s title, the story of meeting one of River’s kidney recipients, and the powerful lessons of hope and redemption that have emerged from their suffering. They also discuss the harsh criticism that comes with sharing their story publicly — including accusations of “profiting off tragedy” — and how they’ve learned to respond with grace and truth. If you’ve ever faced loss, doubt, or the question of how God could bring beauty from brokenness, this episode will deeply move you. ********************************************** CONNECT WITH MY PODCAST: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmithPod YouTube► https://www.YouTube.com/@UCD1JSCn257RlatavklMALyg My NEW BOOK HERE▶ www.grangersmith.com APPAREL™️ GEAR ▶ https://YeeYeeApparel.com SUBSCRIBE HERE ▶ http://smarturl.it/gschannelsubscribe Subscribe to my family channel here ▶ http://youtube.com/TheSmithsTV TALK TO ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmith Facebook► https://facebook.com/GrangerSmith Twitter► https://twitter.com/GrangerSmith Website► https://GrangerSmith.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
