Hearers & Doers • We take a break from our midweek study through 1 Corinthians as Andrew McClean teaches from Luke 10.

Are you just hearing God's Word or truly living it? Blessings come in the doing! Listen to discover how applying Scripture unlocks transformation, purpose, and divine favour in your life. Don't just listen, act!

This week Pastor Pace draws a distinction between those who only hear the word and those who hear and do what is preached. Text: Matthew 7:24-27 "24  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:25  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.26  And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:27  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it."Please hit follow and don't forget to give us a 5-star rating and leave a review.

https://storage.googleapis.com/enduring-word-media/ewpodcast/James1_19-27.mp3 One of the core themes of the Book of James is explained: the danger of being someone who only hears God's word and does not also do it. The post James 1:19-27 – Being Doers, Not Only Hearers appeared first on Enduring Word.

‘Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:‘And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.‘And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:‘But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.‘And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.‘And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.'—Mark 4:3–8

Sunday evening message from the pulpit of Shawano Baptist Church

This week, we look at the 3 main types of reception to Christ's proclamations in Matthew 11-13.

We hear idioms all the time, certain phrases that guide our lives. These adages can steer our thinking and sharpen decision-making. Maybe a grandparent said it; maybe you heard it from a teacher or coach. Maybe your parents hammered home their wisdom in a well-worn axiom. Some are movie quotes, some were penned by a classic author, but quite a few found their origin in the Bible, the source for many idioms that can serve as wise signposts for our lives.

Knowing Who You Are helps you step up and be who God has called you to be.

My guest this week is the amazing Becky Kiser. As a certified life coach, author, and host of the Hearers and Doers podcast, she has used her relatable approach and biblical insights to teach at women's events, churches, conferences, prisons, and more for the last two decades. In our conversation today, we dive into Becky's new book, But God Can. This sets the stage for such an important conversation about embracing our vulnerabilities, understanding true freedom in Christ, and navigating life's ups and downs in faith. I hope you'll join us for a powerful reminder that, even in your deepest moments of self-doubt, God remains constant.  3:39 – Becky 101 Mom of three girls in The Woodlands, Texas Author of two books Author, life coach, business consultant, and podcaster Raised in a home with diverse religious influences Helping women live full lives and find freedom through Jesus 9:10 – True Freedom In Christ Freedom in Christ vs the world's freedom How self-help mantras fall short on their own Relying on God's strength and guidance 17:22 – What Is Truth? Having people in our lives who can help decipher truth Being consistent in God's word The truth is in us Trusting God to redirect us and guide us back to His truth 26:51 – But God Can  Navigating emotions in faith Learning from Jesus' example Trusting in God through feelings of inadequacy and impostor syndrome Connecting with Becky FEATURED QUOTES "We are not enough, but God completely is enough. God can do absolutely anything in our lives." “A path to freedom is simply acknowledging that you can't and then opening your hands enough to see if God could and would and can.” "The truth is that even in our pursuit of truth, it's going to be messy, but we have to pursue. We have to keep going. We have to attempt in faith, to trust the Spirit in us."

God's Word is timeless and transformational. Through its inspired words, the Holy Spirit will mark those of us who live in the 21st century just as He did those disciples who lived in the 1st century.However, that will only happen if we are not only hearers of the Word, but we are also doers of the Word. In other words: it's one thing to be open to what the Bible has to say, it's another thing to be obedient to what the Bible has to say.  James uses the illustration of a mirror. The person who is a hearer but not a doer of the Word is like someone who looks in the mirror but then walks away and forgets what he sees. The purpose of a mirror is to help us “face” the truth about ourselves so we can make the necessary changes.  God's Word is like that mirror. But unlike a literal mirror, which only reflects outward appearance, the Scriptures reveal our inner character and call us to change. The Greek word for “hearers” in vs. 22 is “akroates”: one who sits passively in an audience. Today it could be used for those who audit a college class. They come and listen, but they don't have to “do” anything - no papers, no tests. As with James' audience, in all too many churches today there are a lot of “auditors” – people who attend and even listen a bit.  But when it comes to acting upon what they've heard...when it comes to obeying what's been taught... well, that's optional.Friends, we have been given the very Word of God. Hearing it, reading it, studying it, and discussing it are good things. But that's not the ultimate purpose of this Book. The purpose of this Book is to help us to live in the way of Jesus.  And that will necessitate applying the Word of God.The goal isn't information – it's transformation.James then moves on to some practical illustrations of where hearing must become doing. First, he speaks of the need to keep a tight rein on your tongue. Next, he moves to the issue of caring for widows and orphans, those who are the most vulnerable. Finally, James notes that if you're a doer of the Word you will keep from being polluted by the world. More than just moral purity, this has to do with not letting worldly values drive our thinking and actions - such as: looking out only for yourself; doing whatever it takes to get ahead; living only for this world and not the next.Making the commitment to move from merely hearing to doing won't be easy. But you're not on your own. God will help you. Scripture promises that: “The eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him.” (II Chronicles 16:9)  Text: James 1:22-27 Originally recorded on March 7, 2010, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN
