As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.1 Peter 2:4-5God is always doing 10,000 things in your life, and you may be aware of three of them.John PiperWhat the Church is NOTWhat the Church isThe Church is NOT:Just a BuildingAnd let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.Hebrews 10:24-2516 But when I thought how to understand this,    it seemed to me a wearisome task,17 until I went into the sanctuary of God;    then I discerned their end.Psalm 73:16-17The Psalmist did not merely go to the building, he went to meet with God.Martyn Lloyd JonesWhat a wonderful place God's house is. Often you will find deliverance by merely coming into it… People who neglect attendance at the house of God are not only being unscriptural—let me put it bluntly—they are fools.Martyn Lloyd JonesA SupplementFor MeA seeker-sensitive church (or seeker-church) is a model of ministry and worship designed to be especially accessible, welcoming, and understandable to unchurched or spiritually curious people (“seekers”). The goal is to remove barriers that might make non-Christians feel out of place and to present the gospel in a culturally relevant way.Stop looking for the perfect church. It does not exist. Even if it did exist, the moment you or I joined it, it would no longer be perfect.Nicky GumbleAn organization of minimal impactPETER'S CRUCIFIXION*DIETRICH BONHOEFFER*The Church is:Christ's BodyFor as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.Romans 12:4-5The Church is not a religious community of worshippers of Christ but is Christ himself who has taken form among people.Dietrich BonhoefferBut Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2 and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3 Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?”Acts 9:1-4InheritedSo then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,Ephesians 2:19-20For Jesus21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. 22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by[e] the Spirit.Ephesians 2:21-2225 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, 26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.Ephesians 5:25-27The Hope of the WorldIf the Church is central to God's purpose, as seen in both history and the gospel, then it must surely also be central to our lives.John Stott

Got some sh!t to say?In this ENCORE episode, Marko and Steve dive into the nuanced ways that external influences—like friends, family, societal norms, and even aspects of queer culture—can shape who we date and how we approach relationships. They explore how these pressures can show up subtly or overtly, from internalized ideals about attractiveness and gender roles to the expectations of chosen or biological families. The conversation also considers the potential harm of letting these outside voices drive personal relationship decisions, especially when they lead to choices that aren't aligned with one's authentic needs or desires. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.-Articles:Psychology Today | Friends Have More Say in Your Relationships Than You ThinkSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

Husbands, if you want a marriage that thrives with intimacy, connection, and peace—this one's for you. Too many men overlook one of the most powerful keys to a strong marriage: making their wife feel safe. When your wife feels emotionally safe, she opens up, trusts you deeper, respects your leadership, and desires more intimacy. But when she doesn't, she will shut down, pull back, and create distance in the relationship.In this video, Do This to Make Her Feel Safe, we dive into the exact steps Christian husbands can take to build emotional safety in their marriage. From leading with confidence, being stable under pressure, covering her spiritually, and communicating without fear or ego, you'll learn how to become the husband your wife can fully trust.This is not about being passive, people-pleasing, or just doing what she wants. It's about walking in godly strength, setting the tone in your home, and becoming the immovable man of God that your wife can lean on. When you do this, your marriage will grow in intimacy, respect, and joy.Your wife doesn't need perfection, she needs your presence, leadership, and emotional strength. Do this, and she will follow.Desire to become a High Level Husband who is On Fire, Free, and Followed? Then Click the link!https://www.highlevelhusband.com/bmr-blueprint

Got some sh!t to say?In this heartfelt and candid conversation, Marko and Steve dive deep into the emotional terrain of relationships where one person is moving faster than the other—whether that means falling in love quicker, being ready for commitment sooner, or simply wanting more clarity and definition early on. They explore the role of communication—how honest conversations can sometimes bring clarity, but also risk ending things when both partners realize they're not aligned, and the delicate balance between giving things time vs. needing emotional certainty. Ultimately, the episode is a reflective take on how relationships can falter not from lack of care, but from a difference in timing—and how that can be just as painful and real as any other kind of ending.-Articles:Marriage.com | 6 Stages in Your Gay RelationshipSupport the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

Send us a textThe most dangerous myth of our modern age is this notion that science is somehow contrary to God.  That faith and science cannot coexist. It has lured billions into a life without meaning and without true joy. Author Doug Ell should know... he was one of them.  In our time, the pursuit of scientific and philosophical knowledge has largely been the domain of narrowly focused professionals and academics. Ell's work represents a return to the more open-minded, broad thinking of the Renaissance and Scientific Revolution, when intelligent people of diverse backgrounds exchanged information not to further professional careers, but as part of a collective effort to advance science and reason.  This is a fascinating deep dive where science and faith finally meet.

1st half - SHE's MAD I ACCEPTED MY MONEY BACK!2nd Half - MOM WONT CUT OFF MY EX

It doesn't always look like “mistreating” your wife. Sometimes it's cutting her off mid-sentence because you think you know what she'll say, or scrolling through your phone while she's telling you about her day, or brushing off her feelings with “you're overreacting”. Little by little, these moments chip away at trust, affection, and respect until your wife feels unseen in her own home. In this video, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan shares 25 major mistakes Muslim men make: the kinds of actions and habits that lead to failed marriages, constant conflict, or homes with no real happiness.  He highlights what the Qur'an and Sunnah teach about a husband's role, how the Prophet ﷺ treated his wives, and the practical steps every Muslim man can take to bring back mercy and love into his marriage. Whether you're preparing for marriage or already a husband, this is advice you won't get in casual talks, but it could save your marriage from quiet collapse.

In this episode of the Mutuality Matters podcast from CBE International, hosts Mimi and Charel speak with Dr. Jeannine Brown who discusses the pressing need to interpret the Biblical text of 1 Peter 3:1–7 within its first-century Greco-Roman context. Dr. Brown emphasizes the importance of understanding the cultural and historical background behind the passages on submission, particularly 1 Peter 3:1–7. She explores how Peter's household codes provide agency to often marginalized groups like wives and slaves, contrary to the hierarchical norms of the time. The conversation underscores the relevance today of recognizing and respecting context while interpreting Biblical texts—an essential factor for both scholars and modern readers.    00:00 Introduction to Mutuality Matters  00:02 Exploring the Context of Submission in 1 Peter  00:49 Welcome and Introductions  01:33 Reading and Analyzing 1 Peter 3:1-7  02:57 Cultural Background and Interpretation  03:37 Household Codes in the Greco-Roman World  07:24 Missional Moments and Divided Households  08:20 Challenges for Christian Wives in the First Century  10:03 Slavery and Moral Agency in 1 Peter  11:28 Understanding Peter's Use of Household Codes  16:50 Modern Interpretations and Misconceptions  27:46 The Role of Headings in Biblical Interpretation  30:15 Instructions for Husbands in 1 Peter 3:7  36:30 Exploring Social and Physical Vulnerability  37:19 Interpreting 'Weaker Vessel' in Context  38:02 Challenging Traditional Views on Gender Roles  40:18 Co-Heirs and Inheritance in Early Christianity  41:50 Family Metaphors in 1 Peter  43:37 Egalitarian Impulses in the New Testament  45:28 Household Codes and Their Implications  50:08 Suffering for Good and Loyalty to Jesus  52:47 Translation Challenges and Responsibilities  58:01 Applying 1 Peter in Modern Contexts  01:04:03 Conclusion and Further Resources    Guest Bio: Dr. Jeannine Brown   Jeannine Brown is professor of New Testament at Bethel Seminary and Program Director of Bethel Seminary's Online programs.

She is married to Tim Brown, singer-songwriter, and has two adult daughters.  Story Notes  Today's podcast focused on 1 Pet 3:1–7. In the NIV it reads:  "Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, when they see the purity and reverence of your lives. Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight. For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves. They submitted themselves to their own husbands, like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her lord. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear. Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."   Exploring the cultural background, Jeannine suggests that Peter is calling Christians to display behaviors that reflect Christ even as male dominance was a given. Jeannine explained that in the first century, Roman interest in well-organized households should mirror a well-organized Rome. Roman citizens were to live harmoniously within a well-organized Roman household. Where the passage makes a surprising move is in the call for husbands to have empathy for their wives with a consequence: that God will hear their prayers. Further Christian wives should view themselves beyond the cultural standard of female beauty. As the passage states: it's not the adorning of women's outer selves but their inner lives of faith in God. Doing right, and with faith that does not give into fear given God is ultimately in control. This passage is countercultural in its emphasis on Christian faith and the development of a peaceful inner life both of which acknowledge God's supremacy versus that of emperor's.     This passage calls both husbands and wives to do what is right: to be brave, to have faith in God who rules over all of Rome's emperors, verse 7, to live within a culture with very differing values that offend Christian moral life. In this passage there is a tension in negotiating life lived in a culture at odds with Christian values, supremely concerning the divinity Jesus, or that of an emperor. While Jesus died on a Roman cross, even so, the passage evokes faith and courage in Christian households. The passage is helpful to missionaries in similar circumstances. How to live with courage and faith, elevating the gospel with behavior more often than words in a culture that exploited slaves and women.     Turning to 1 Peter 3:7 that reads:  "Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers."     The Petrine texts lean into sibling language, especially that of children, which overall is very egalitarian in the cultural context of first century. Further, the language of “father” was not very much present in NT as it was in 1st century non-Christian texts. God's children in Christ were to face each other in humility and this very egalitarian impulse in relating to one another. God is father, but in Christ we're all siblings. Women and men are co-heirs is throughout NT. Leadership structure are notes but not ones in the NT.     The whole Petrine text is a significant challenge to the top-down rule from emperor as God down throughout the household structure which was central. Given what Peter is doing with family metaphors—of believers as children / siblings who are to love earnestly as family love each other, and as the elders are a group too much have wisdom but must lead by example. These impulses, leader on top, and wife below: this does simplify decisions, but this is not the texture of Peter. As he thinks of his context, and the household code, it is not a prescription but a triage—a pathway for healing top-down leadership. It's what Christians do in an emergency. Emergency advice to the Christian community so it can survive. It's about survival for the most vulnerable. The thrust of text is a call to attentiveness to the most vulnerable. In light of Tom Holland's book—Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World—in brutal detail reveals the cruelty of Rome. In thinking of our next, the advice is that even if you suffer for doing good, you are blessed. And take comfort in that truth and knowledge that even those who slanders you, remain loyal to Christ, if you suffer as Jesus did, you will also share in his glory.  In fascinating detail, Jeannine describes the history of Bible translation and the canonical review that follows. For the NIV team, on which she contributes, their voting policy requires a 75% majority in approving translation choices. Thus, the team must make a compelling case to change something, so for 1 Peter, and the NT generally, it's always wise to examine and read many translations to see differences.     In considering the backdrop in which the text arises, submission is not a new requirement. What is new for this culture is to ask that all behavior must be Christ-like. While believers are clearly frightened by opposition to Christian faith, the text calls them to act in ways that others will recognize their soul-allegiance to Christ. Win others over to Christ not out of fear but confident behavior that imitates Christ's live. Jeannine recommends entering the text with a disciplined imagination that brings implications of texts to life then and now. Idolatry is key issue underlining the concerns in this text which encourages faith and living life not with words but by example.   Jeannine points listeners to the following resources:  Nijay Gupta's book, Tell Her Story: How Women Led, Taught and Ministered in the Early Church.   Listen to Jeannine Brown's Hayward Lectures at Acadia Divinity College  Jeannie will resume this conversation in subsequent episodes of Women and Worlds: Exploring the Difficult Passages.    Disclaimer  The opinions expressed in CBE's Mutuality Matters' podcast are those of its hosts or guests and do not purport to reflect the opinions or views of CBE International or its members or chapters worldwide.

Our spouse says something, and they just said it innocently, but it pushed our button and we interpret it as an insult, so what do we do back, insult them back. Insult for insult, curse for curse.

Got some sh!t to say?In this real and refreshingly honest episode, Marko and Steve get into the heart of why so many relationships struggle: unrealistic expectations and the lack of clear, consistent communication. They kick things off by calling out the myth of the “perfect partner.” You know, the idea that your partner should just know what you need, never mess up, and always be in sync with your every mood. Then they dive into the fix: communication. Not just the deep, dramatic talks, but the everyday stuff — the little check-ins, the honest “I feel” moments, and the courage to say what you actually need without playing games. To wrap things up, they tackle the week's Listener Sh!tuation, offering their thoughts and guidance on a real life dilemma from the audience.Support the showSh!t | Leave us a voicemail with your relationship sh!tuation at (903) POD- SHIT.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 13th August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in Psalm 20:7: ”Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.” Our faithful God who keeps His promises! Then we go to Genesis 40:23. Remember, Joseph had interpreted the dreams of the butler and yet the chief butler did not remember Joseph but forgot him. Joseph said to him,“When you meet with Pharaoh and you find favour with Pharaoh, don't forget to put in a good word for me.” And he forgot. How often have we been in that situation? Who do you and I put our trust in? Who can you trust today? You can't even trust yourself, can you? We need to remember to keep our promises.I want to start with a Marriage Covenant. Husbands, you made a promise on the day that you got married that you would be faithful to your wife, and I want to say to that young lady, you made a promise on the day of your wedding that you would remain faithful to your husband. It is a Marriage Covenant. We need to keep it.What about appointments? You know, some people make a joke of it. They say, ”Oh, he's always late.” I want to say to you it's just as easy to be early as it is to be late. In fact, when you are late, you are showing that person you don't really value them, otherwise you would be on time. You see, the Master was never early, He was never late, He was always on time.If you go to the Gospel of John 11:32, you see Mary was so upset because her brother had died, and they had waited for Jesus to come and He came four days later. She said in verse 32: “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” But of course we know the end story. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead.Please today, if you make your child a promise - you say, ”Son, I'm coming to watch you play your sports match today,” you better be there. “No, but maybe there'll be something else.” If you made the promise, keep it, because If you let him down, you let her down, they won't forget that in a hurry. If you are trying to influence a young lady, young man, don't be late for your appointment. Be early, and don't forget to bring a bunch of roses with you when you take her out.Jesus bless you and keep your promise, Goodbye.

We'll dive into practical steps for husbands to stay consistent, lead spiritually, and grow in character even when it's uncomfortable.If you're ready to stop waiting for your wife to change and start being the change, this teaching will equip you to lead your marriage to honor God, build intimacy, and set a standard your wife and family can follow.Want to become a High Level Husband who is Fire, Free, and Followed?

Hey friends, let me be honest with you - as a man speaking for many men, oral sex is a big deal to us. We love it. It's incredibly pleasurable. But here's what makes today's episode so powerful: I'm sharing a conversation from a wife's perspective about how she finds giving oral sex deeply pleasurable and meaningful. Now, the beautiful thing about oral sex is that it's inherently intimate. You're giving your complete attention and focus to your spouse. There's something vulnerable and connecting about the very act itself. So learning how to genuinely enjoy it - not just on the receiving end, but actually on the giving end - can be an incredible gift to your marriage. I'm excited to bring this topic to you today because this is actually a conversation I recorded a few years ago that's been sitting in the archives. I don't think many of you have heard it, and honestly, the underlying principle is too powerful not to share again. Here's the thing - this isn't just about technique tips for better oral sex, though we'll cover some of that. It's so much deeper. It's about a complete attitude shift and reframe that can transform this part of your intimate life together. If you're ready to think differently about giving and receiving in the bedroom, you won't want to miss this conversation.

On this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani calls in for an unfiltered conversation with Adam. They begin by discussing the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and whether a regime change in Iran is on the horizon. The two also tackle the controversial question of whether a “deep state” exists within the U.S. government, using a recent clip from The Colbert Show featuring Senator Elissa Slotkin as a jumping-off point. Rudy then walks Adam through how he came into possession of Hunter Biden's infamous laptop and details some of the incriminating contents found on it. They discuss the media's refusal to cover the story seriously and reflect on how similar tactics were used to launch smear campaigns against Donald Trump. Adam wraps up the interview by asking Rudy for his take on Vladimir Putin and the narrative that Putin preferred Trump over Kamala Harris in U.S. elections.Jason “Mayhem” Miller returns to the studio to go over some of the trending headlines. They dive into a viral story about a wife charging her husband for packing his lunches, sparking debate over modern marriage dynamics. The conversation shifts to Shannon Sharpe's unexpected exit from ESPN, just weeks after settling a legal battle over sexual assault allegations. Then, they take a look at a scandal involving the Barneys heir accused of helping his family dodge $20 million in taxes. Finally, they wrap things up with a health headline about how your everyday sandwich might be messing with your mood, prompting Adam to chime in with his usual dietary skepticism.FOR MORE WITH RUDY GIULIANI:TWITTER: @RudyGiulianiINSTAGRAM: @TheRudyGiuliani FOR MORE WITH JASON “MAYHEM” MILLER: INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: @mayhemmillerWEBSITE: www.mayhemnow.com Thank you for supporting our sponsors:Homes.comoreillyauto.com/ADAMPluto.tvSIMPLISAFE.COM/ADAMLIVE SHOWS: August 6 - Reno, NVAugust 7 - Portland, ORAugust 31 - Torrance, CASeptember 12-13 - El Paso, TX (4 Shows)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In Christianity, decision-making is an often mystified topic. Life is full of choices, and sin complicates things. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss how Scripture offers a much clearer way forward. Making God-honoring decisions isn't about unlocking a secret code—it's about confidence in God's sovereignty. The heart of a believer is to walk in communion with God in every part of life, not just in moments of uncertainty. When someone fully surrenders to Christ, God will carry them. Walking in the fear of the Lord and having a reverent awe of who He is brings clarity. When someone lives for God's glory, every decision filters through that lens.The wisdom of God isn't hidden, it's available in His Word. The guys emphasize how we often overcomplicate things when Scripture is always sufficient. The more time someone spends in the Bible, the more their decisions reflect God's heart. The world may pressure and mislead, but the believer stays focused on Christ. Practically, decision-making often involves affinity (what someone loves), ability (what someone is good at), and opportunity (which doors are opening). The church plays a vital role here—believers need objective counsel. There's wisdom in a multitude of counselors. The guys remind believers to avoid surrounding themselves with yes men. Everyone needs people who aren't impressed by them and will speak the truth in love.Making unpopular decisions is difficult. That's why it's important to determine convictions before the moment comes. The more someone is in Scripture and community, the easier it becomes to stand strong. Even if alone, a believer is never truly alone- God stands with them. Knowing God's Word also narrows options in a good way. Don't ask God for direction while ignoring what He's already revealed. If God seems silent, perhaps He's already spoken and now it's time for obedience. The Bible is the instruction manual. As leaders, especially husbands, decisions must reflect God's will, not self-interest. Husbands are called to lead, but not alone; wives are given to help discern God's direction. Leadership is service- first to God, then to others.The world says to follow your heart, but the Bible says the heart is deceitful. God-honoring decisions come from God-saturated minds. Those who seek wisdom must ask God for it and saturate themselves in His Word. Surrounding oneself with praying, honest believers matters. As the guys remind Christians, faith is a refusal to panic. Wait on the Lord. Trust His ways over your own. Cry out to Him because He knows more than we ever will.Send us a textThanks for listening!
