Sermon by Amy SigmonFor our current sermon series - Hymns of the HeartScripture Reading: Matthew 28:16-20
As we count down to Friday's release of Heaven Is Full of Criminals, I want to introduce you to the people who helped bring this song to life.Today's spotlight is on my friend, Craig Adams.Craig and I go back more than a few decades. He produced my album Hymns, Prayers, and Invitations ten years ago, and I've admired both his musicianship and his character ever since.Today, Craig serves as the executive director of the Center for Commercial Music in the School of Music and Worship Arts at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, but no matter how accomplished he becomes, he's remained one of the kindest, most generous people I've ever had the privilege of working with.On Heaven Is Full of Criminals, Craig contributed the beautiful background vocals, keyboards, and percussion that help give the song so much warmth and depth. His instinct is always to serve the song rather than himself, and that's one of the things I admire most about him as a musician and producer.There are people whose talent is obvious the moment you hear them. Craig is one of those people. But what makes him truly special is that his humility is every bit as remarkable as his ability.Quite honestly, this song would not be what it is without him.Thank you, Craig, for lending your gifts to this recording and for being such a faithful friend over the years.Heaven Is Full of Criminals releases this Friday. I can't wait for you to hear the beautiful work Craig helped create.Spotify Pre-Save · https://show.co/sOrc2zb This is a public episode.

Busyness can make us feel productive while quietly pulling us away from the One we need most. Through the familiar story of Mary and Martha, we're invited to consider whether our anxious striving has drowned out the voice of Jesus — and to discover the peace that comes from simply being with him. Listen to this sermon as John Yates explores Christ's compassionate response to our deepest fears and reminds us that he sees us, cares for us, and offers the one thing that can never be taken away. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

JUL. 16, 2026You're called to do "good works"."Being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God." Col 1:10 NKJVMany people know how Helen Keller overcame the difficult physical challenge of being left without hearing, speech, and sight after contracting fever as a baby and how she eventually learned to communicate by learning Braille. Her life inspired millions of people. One of her ardent admirers was author Mark Twain. She was invited to visit every president at the White House from her childhood on. What many people don't know, however, is how hard Helen worked as an adult. After graduating with honors from Radcliffe College, she worked to help others until her death at the age of eighty-eight.She authored numerous articles. She gave lectures for the American Foundation for the Blind and raised millions of dollars for them.On her eightieth birthday, she was given the Helen Keller International Award for those who give outstanding help to the blind. In the Bible, Paul prayed for the Colossian Christians: "That you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him" (Col 1:10 NKJV). And he gave them two ways in which they could do this: "Being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God" (NKJV). Faith and works; spirituality and service; ministering to the Lord and meeting the needs of others. That's how Helen Keller lived. You say, "But my goal is to please the Lord rather than people." Here's how you do that: "With goodwill doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men" (Eph 6:7 NKJV). Hymn writer Charles Meigs wrote: "Others, Lord, yes others, let this my motto be. Help me to live for others, that I may live like Thee."You're called to do "good works" Help me to live for others.Share This DevotionalSend us Fan MailSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

This weekend our service theme focuses on true riches, and the danger of trusting in the "riches" of this life. Our hymn study this weekend is on "Consider How The Birds Above" (WS 789) by Lutheran pastor and hymnwriter, Stephen Starke. This hymn is based on the words of Jesus in Matthew 6, which use the creation as an illustration of God's love, concern and care for you and me. Jesus says: "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?' or ‘What shall we drink?' or ‘What shall we wear?' For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." (Matthew 6:25-34) The hymn is a beautiful poetic retelling of those words of Jesus. The birds and the lilies teach us something about the nature of God, and assure us that He will also (even more) take care of us. The hymn also warns against the danger of greed, just as Jesus does, and Paul does in 1 Timothy 6. We live in a time and place which is extremely affluent, and as a result, what Paul describes is taking place before our eyes. "But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." (1 Timothy 6:9-10) How sad that so many who have been brought to know Christ are being led away from him because of the abundance they have in this world! How sad that many who have not come to know Christ are being prevented from knowing Him because they see no need for God or for a Savior in their life! May the LORD continue to keep us from falling into the trap of greed because of the blessings He bestows upon us or those around us. LORD, help us to treasure the greater blessings of your Kingdom, blessing which cannot be lost or taken away from us, but are ours, through faith, for all eternity! Bless our worship of you with truly thankful hearts, this weekend, and every day of our lives!

We all know what it’s like to search for something that never quite satisfies. Jesus’ encounter with the woman at the well reveals that our deepest thirst can’t be quenched by success, relationships, or anything this world has to offer; it can only be met by him. The living water Jesus gives doesn’t just fill empty hearts; it transforms lives and overflows to others. Listen to this sermon as Jason Harris explores where true satisfaction is found and why Jesus alone can quench our deepest thirst. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

Our hymn study this weekend is "Christ Is Our Corner-Stone" (TLH 465) which is an English translation of a Latin hymn from around 700AD. This hymn beautifully describes the nature of the salvation that Jesus has won for us, and, as a result of that salvation, the blessings that are ours now and in heaven. Psalm 118:19-25 serves as one of the foundation passages for this hymn: "Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, And I will praise the LORD. 20 This is the gate of the LORD, Through which the righteous shall enter. 21 I will praise You, For You have answered me, And have become my salvation. 22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. 23 This was the LORD'S doing; It is marvelous in our eyes. 24 This is the day the LORD has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity. 26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD." It points to Jesus as the Cornerstone of the church and the only foundation of the church. It also describes the blessings we receive in church through the reception of the Means of Grace. Finally, it describes the joy of singing the praises of God in heaven. Rejoice in the blessings that God imparts to you and for you at His house! Thanks be to God!

Are you willing to go home and share your story with the people who know you best? In this episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster walks us through Acts 9:26-30 (KJV) and the powerful account of Paul's rejection in Jerusalem — and how one man, Barnabas, changed everything by simply being willing to vouch for a changed life.You might be asking... Why didn't the disciples trust Paul even after he became a Christian? What made Barnabas different from everyone else? Does God really want me to witness to my own family and friends? What if I don't know what to say?Key points from this devotion:- Rejection from the inside can hurt more than opposition from the outside- Barnabas was trusted because he had already proven his heart through sacrifice- God calls us into fellowship with His Son and with His people (1 Corinthians 1:9)- Witnessing begins at home — your Jerusalem comes first (Luke 24:47)- Your testimony is a tool God is already preparing someone to hearIf you've been holding back from sharing Jesus with your family, let this devotion move you to take that first step today.

Everyone has an opinion about truth, but what if truth is more than an idea to debate? Jesus' makes a surprising claim that truth is ultimately found in a person, exposing the lies that keep us from God while offering the freedom and hope only he can give. Rather than asking us to create our own reality, it invites us to be transformed by the One who is reality itself. Listern to this sermon as Twaambo Moyo explores why knowing the truth begins with knowing Jesus. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here. Visit us on our website to learn more.

Here's a replay for Independence Day of an interview with Mark David HallDid the United States truly have a Christian founding, or were the Founders simply Deists who desired to create a secular nation?This question has been hotly debated for generations, and our society increasingly regards the idea of America's Christian heritage as something to be minimized, rejected, or denied.So what is the truth regarding the faith of the Founders and how it influenced their actions as they fought a revolution and brought forth a new nation?To answer this question we're speaking with historian Mark David Hall. Hall is one of the most distinguished scholars of early American history. He is a professor, a nationally-recognized expert on religious freedom, and the author of several books, including Did America Have a Christian Founding? In this conversation we'll discuss how Christianity shaped our nation, how much impact deism actually had on some of the founders, the true meaning of the separation of church and state, and how we can return to the biblical founding principles that made America a great nation.See the Show Notes at ReasonableTheology.org/Founders Get a free trial of Logos at ReasonableTheology.org/Logos Support the showGET THE NEWSLETTEREach edition of the Reasonable Theology newsletter contains my latest article or podcast episode PLUS:A Theological Word or Phrase Explained Quickly and ClearlyA Painting Depicting a Scene from Scripture or Church HistoryAudio of a Hymn or other Musical Selection to EnjoyA Recommended Book or Resource to Expand Your LibrarySUBSCRIBE HERE

Can someone be deeply moral, deeply religious, and still be missing the very life God offers? Through Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus, this message reveals why we need more than self-improvement — we need a new birth that only God can give. Whether your journey to faith is sudden or gradual, the invitation is the same: look to Christ and receive the new life that only he can provide. Listen to this sermon as Jason Harris explores Jesus' surprising answer to one of life's most important questions. ________ Sign up for Central’s newsletters here.

In Episode 228, Sarah, Catherine (@GilmoreGuide), and Chrissie (@ChrissieWhitley) take stock of the reading year so far, discussing the books, publishing trends, and industry chatter that have defined the first half of 2026. They dive into the biggest publishing stories of the year, the rise of "cozy everything," the continued influence of self-publishing and book-to-screen success stories, and whether it's possible to tap a Book of the Year before the second half of the publishing calendar arrives. Then, they share their Top 5 Books of 2026 So Far and a few disappointing reads that didn't quite live up to expectations.

1. HEART OF THE MATTER 1A. Record-Breaking Missionary Numbers — Pres. Oaks at New Mission Leader Seminar At the 2026 Seminar for New Mission Leaders (June 18–21, Provo MTC), President Dallin H. Oaks announced that the Church will soon have the largest number of full-time missionaries in its history, surpassing the current 87,000+ serving worldwide. The surge is driven by the first wave of 18-year-old sister missionaries (following the November policy change lowering the minimum age from 19) and the addition of 55 new missions in July, bringing the global total to 506. President Oaks outlined three characteristics defining the restored Church: (1) the fulness of doctrine (including eternal marriage between a man and a woman); (2) priesthood authority and keys; and (3) a unique testimony of Christ grounded in modern revelation and the First Vision. Sister Kristin Oaks also spoke, sharing six core truths missionaries teach.

New Hymn ‘Welcome Home’ — The Story Behind It Composer Andrea Brett explains how a 2017 encounter with Demetrius O’Neal — a recent convert serving as a greeter at a Spokane ward on a snowy Sunday morning — inspired her hymn ‘Welcome Home,’ now published in the new Hymns for Home and Church. Brett submitted 10 pieces when the global hymnbook was announced in 2018; this was the only one she’d written before the call. She received confirmation of its selection in February 2025, then had a full-circle moment when she and O’Neal sat near each other at the April 2025 General Conference as the Tabernacle Choir performed it. O’Neal’s name appears in the hymn’s tune name as a tribute. The hymn is now translated and sung globally. Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1C. Family History Records Are a ‘Sacred Thread’ — Elder Bragg at International Archivists Congress Elder Mark A. Bragg, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Family History Department and FamilySearch International, was a keynote speaker at the III Congress of Archivists: Digital Archive Expo (DA-EXPO), held June 8–12 in Astana, Kazakhstan. He called family history records ‘the thin but sacred thread’ tying people together across generations, and argued that records are ‘in a very real sense, witnesses.’ Elder Bragg framed the digital revolution in genealogy in moral terms: for most of history, access to records was shaped by ‘proximity, resources and specialized knowledge,’ but today a record created in one place can be preserved in another, indexed in a third, and discovered by someone on the other side of the world. ‘The reach is astonishing. The speed is breathtaking. The possibilities are almost beyond measure.’ He also said that ‘access is an act of kindness’ — records only fulfill their divine purpose when they are found, understood, and used. His core message: preserving memory is an act of hope. ‘It says that the past is not dead to us and that the future deserves more than fragments.’ Source: Church News, June 17, 2026 Angle: Great ‘quiet but meaningful’ story — LDS family history going global and leveling the playing field for genealogy worldwide. 1D. America Gives — All 50 States Receive Food Donations The Church completed a milestone in its ‘America Gives’ initiative by delivering a shipping container of food to Hilo, Hawaii — marking all 50 states reached. The initiative aims to deliver 250 truckloads of food nationwide in 2026 to celebrate the U.S. 250th anniversary. In Hawaii, the food went to The Food Basket, distributed to 10 local nonprofits. Notably, 42% of residents on the island of Hawaii face food insecurity — the state’s highest rate. Rosie Rios, chair of America 250 and former U.S. Treasurer, praised the milestone. Local Methodist pastor Ted Lesnett said recipients will know ‘when they were hungry, someone cared.’ Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1E. Church Donates $250,000 NZD to Christchurch Anglican Cathedral Rebuild The Church announced a NZ$250,000 donation (June 19, 2026) toward the restoration of Christchurch’s iconic Anglican Cathedral — damaged in the February 2011 earthquake. Elder Peter F. Meurs (Pacific Area President) and Anglican Bishop Peter Carrell presided at the announcement. The donation comes as the project faces a $45M funding shortfall and an overall $219M budget. The Christchurch City Council has offered $15M contingent on government and Anglican Church matches. Notably, a New Zealand Buddhist community made a similar gift in 2023 — the LDS donation continues a cross-faith pattern of support for the heritage project.

Central America Humanitarian Blitz — 5 Projects, 500,000+ People In late May and early June 2026, the Church announced five humanitarian projects across Central America (with Sister J. Anette Dennis, First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, representing the Church). Projects include: the ‘Windows of Light’ eyecare program in El Salvador (350,000+ screenings to date); safe water access for 250,000+ in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua (with UNICEF); nearly 750 computers/tablets donated to 66 educational institutions in Guatemala; and medical equipment for the ‘La Mascota’ children’s hospital in Nicaragua.

Todd Christofferson: He offered the invocation at Becket’s Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia (multifaith event celebrating religious liberty), alongside Elder Gary E. Stevenson and others. The group also visited the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall — fitting, ahead of America’s 250th. Christofferson reflected on D&C 101 and the Constitution’s purpose to protect ‘all flesh.’ From Philadelphia, he and Sister Christofferson traveled to Toronto, meeting 250+ missionaries in the Canada Toronto Mission weeks before it divides into three missions (Toronto West, Toronto East, and Montreal). He also spoke to hundreds of LDS youth, with one — Amelia Fischer — saying ‘no amount of words can describe how I felt tonight.’ Source: Richie’s document / Church Newsroom 2B. BYU Scholar Study: Religion Adds 7.6 Years to Life The BYU Wheatley Institute is releasing three reports analyzing 3,000 of the most scientifically rigorous studies (culled from 60,000+ papers by Duke University) on religion and health. Key findings: 33/34 studies show improved social health; 10/11 show improved mental health; 7/8 show improved physical health. Regular worshippers live an average of 7.6 years longer (up to 13.7 years longer for African Americans). A ‘landmark finding’: 256 studies show religion prevents/aids recovery from substance abuse (vs. 6 showing negative impact). Author Loren Marks recommends public health frameworks treat religious involvement like exercise recommendations. Source: Richie’s document 2C. Elder Soares Testifies in the Philippines Elder Ulisses Soares completed a two-week ministry in the Philippines (mid-May 2026), meeting with 600+ young single adults in Cebu, 450+ in Quezon City, and 340+ missionaries at the Philippines MTC. His recurring message: ‘His arms are extended to all of us.’ The Philippines has more than 905,000 Latter-day Saints — the Church’s fourth-largest national membership. Two new temples were also dedicated in the Philippines this month: the Davao Philippines Temple (Elder Renlund, May 3) and the Bacolod Philippines Temple (Elder Andersen, May 31). Source: Church Newsroom, June 17, 2026 3. CULTURE & CURIOSITIES 3A. LDS Author in Everyman’s Library — A First BYU biology and bioethics professor Steven L. Peck has reportedly become the first Latter-day Saint author included in the prestigious Everyman’s Library series (publishing canonical English fiction since 1906). His 2012 novella A Short Stay in Hell — a philosophical horror story about a Mormon man condemned to an afterlife library containing every possible book — went viral on BookTok and found a new audience. A literature historian noted: ‘No Mormon or Mormon-adjacent writer that I know of has ever been featured in this prestigious series.’ The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story, noting the irony that a theological horror story marks one of the most significant moments in LDS literary history.

The Sasine Family — 40 Countries Before Age 1 Keith and Chelsea Sasine, an LDS couple stationed in Germany (Keith is an Army oral surgeon), made history in November 2025 by taking their youngest daughter Mia to 40 countries before her first birthday (March–November 2025), using a Honda Odyssey for European road trips. The family of six (including Izzy, 10; Abby, 9; and John, 4) attends local wards wherever they travel — a faith anchor the couple says strengthened their testimony and taught their kids the importance of the Sabbath globally. They’re planning a move to Colorado Springs in 2026. Source: Richie’s document 3C. Jen Affleck (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives) Expecting Baby #4 Jen Affleck, 27-year-old star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and Dancing with the Stars alum, announced June 18 that she and husband Zac Affleck are expecting their fourth child. She shared the news on Instagram captioned ‘Chapter Four.
