Most law students and practitioners stumble over the complex world of spousal support—also known as alimony—where logic collides with human emotion. What if you could decode the hidden frameworks that determine whether support is awarded, for how long, and on what basis? In this episode of "Best in the World," we peel back the layers of family law's most misunderstood terrain to reveal the secrets behind support law's biggest debates.This isn't about reading statutes. It's about understanding the fundamental distinction: property division is a final, retrospective process, while spousal support is an ongoing, flexible obligation. Property division celebrates the past—who owns what—generally final with little room for modification. Support, by contrast, is about the future needs of a spouse, adjusting to life's unpredictable shifts: job loss, health issues, or new relationships. Recognizing this critical difference is the first step for any law student aiming to master family law.We break down the core support typologies—pendente lite, rehabilitative, permanent, and reimbursement support—each serving a distinct policy purpose and dictating different durations and modifiability. Want a temporary safety net during the divorce process? Pendente lite support is your answer. Need a structured pathway back to independence? Rehabilitative support, grounded in the Gavron warning, requires the supported spouse to actively pursue self-sufficiency. Facing long-term incapacity or age? The overwhelming trend leans against indefinite alimony, with many states capping or phasing out permanent support, reflecting a modern push toward clean breaks.Key to support analysis are the well-known but often misunderstood factors: the length of the marriage, standard of living during the union, and the economic contributions—monetary or non-monetary. Imputed income becomes critical when a high-earning spouse intentionally underemploys or quits a lucrative career to shirk obligations, triggering courts to treat potential earnings as actual income. Similarly, contributions that aren't monetary—childcare, homemaking—are now credited as vital support pillars, influencing property shares and alimony awards.Among the episode's most compelling insights is the ongoing debate over the professional degree dilemma. Unlike traditional property, degrees are generally not considered assets—yet their immense future income potential makes them a de facto kind of property in some states. Landmark cases like Gram v. Gram in Colorado established a hard line against calling degrees property, citing transferability as a key criterion. But states like New Jersey—with Mahoney v. Mahoney—have innovatively remedied this gap with reimbursements, allowing courts to order support that refunds the spouse's investment in education, akin to a business investment gone awry.The episode also reveals modern shifts away from life-long alimony, especially permanent or indefinite awards, exemplified by recent reforms in Florida. Now, legislatures favor formulas or caps, reflecting a broader move towards ending lifelong dependency—though this raises societal questions about fairness, especially for those who sacrificed careers decades ago under old social contracts.Understanding fault is equally crucial. Today's courts emphasize economic need over morality—cheating spouses can still receive alimony unless their misconduct directly dissipated marital assets. Conversely, cohabitation—living with a new partner—can trigger automatic termination or require courts to scrutinize financial interdependence. This social evolution underscores a legal landscape striving for fairness, transparency, and long-term sustainability.Tax considerations have also transformed. Prior to 2019, payers enjoyed tax deductions; payees paid income tax on support. After the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, support has become tax-neutral—less tax benefit for payers, more pressure on negotiation leverage.

Northwest Bible Church – Oct. 26, 2025 – Reformation Day – Alan Conner Romans 5:1 The Doctrine of Justification Intro A. JUSTIFICATION: WHAT DOES IT MEAN? 1. LBCF 11.1 - Those whom God effectually calleth, he also freely justifieth, not by infusing righteous-ness into them, but by pardoning their sins, and by accounting and accepting their persons as righteous; not for anything wrought in them, or done by them, but for Christ's sake alone; . . . but by imputing Christ's active obedience unto the whole law, and passive obedience in his death for their whole and sole righteousness by faith, which faith they have not of themselves; it is the gift of God. 2. A legal declaration of being righteous, not to make them righteous (sanctification). Lk. 7:29; Deut. 25:1; Prov. 17:15 B. JUSTIFICATION: HOW DOES IT OCCUR? 1. One lives a perfectly righteous life. Jas. 2:10; Romans 3:10 2. One must be given a righteousness that is perfect. Romans 3:24; 5:17; Phil. 3:9; 2 Cor. 5:21 3. The transaction of imputation or “credited.” Romans 4:5 C. JUSTIFICATION: WHAT DOES IT GIVE? 1. Forgiveness of all our sins. Romans 4:6-8; Col. 2:13 2. Imputed righteousness of Christ. Phil. 3:9; 2 Cor. 5:21 3. The Great Exchange. Double imputation. D. JUSTIFICATION: WHEN DOES IT HAPPEN? 1. Accomplished at the cross. Romans 3:24; 5:9 2. Applied at the moment of saving faith. Romans 3:28; 5:1; Gal. 2:16 E. JUSTIFICATION: WHAT DOES IT RESULT IN? 1. Sanctification. Jas. 2:26 2. Glorification. Romans 8:1, 33-34, 30 Conclusion
Northwest Bible Church – Oct. 19, 2025 – Matthew – Alan Conner Matthew 5:6 Blessed are the Spiritually Hungry Intro A. WHAT KIND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS? 1. Not man-made righteousness. Mt. 5:20; Jer. 2:13. 2. God's righteousness. a. Imputed righteousness. Phil. 3:9 b. Practical righteousness. 2 Tim. 2:22; Rom. 6:13 c. Civil righteousness. Isa. 61:1-2 B. HUNGERING AND THIRSTING 1. Speaks to an intense longing, metaphor. Ps. 42:1-2 2. Tests of this hunger and thirst. C. THE BLESSING OF BEING SATISFIED. 1. Divine passive. 2. To make full, to fill up to the brim. 3. For the lost – 4. For the believer - Conclusion
Faith Like AbrahamText: Romans 3:27-4:12Main Idea: Salvation has always been by grace through faith—Abraham looked forward to Christ; we look back. Justification is by faith alone, not works.Boasting Excluded (vv. 1–2)Paul: no room for pride; Abraham saved by faith, not merit.Salvation in every age rests on Christ's righteousness.Abraham Believed (vv. 3–4)Genesis 15: Abraham trusted God's promise, and God counted him righteous.Faith is the instrument of salvation, not a meritorious act.Faith as Trust (vv. 5; James 2)Paul: justified before God; James: faith proven before men.True faith includes personal trust (fiducia), not mere belief.Counted Righteous (vv. 5–6)“Faith alone saves, but not a faith that is alone.”Works flow from faith—they're fruit, not foundation.Blessedness of Imputation (vv. 6–8)David: blessed are those forgiven and credited with Christ's righteousness.Imputed righteousness = alien righteousness from Christ, not earned.Sign and Seal (vv. 9–12)Abraham justified before circumcision—faith, not ritual, saves.Baptism and the Lord's Supper are signs and seals of covenant grace.
Someone has said that the gospel can be preached to any audience because the lost need to hear it and the saints love to hear it. The gospel tells the unsaved that they are lost sinners and cannot earn their salvation but that God offers the free gift of eternal life by His grace. The good news also insures God's people that although their sin still remains in them, they have received the perfect righteousness of Jesus Christ by faith and are safe forever.

Hope for Hard Days ReCreate Church | Michael Shockley | September 7, 2025 Esther Series, Part 9: Esther 9, 10 ---------- EPISODE SUMMARY In the final episode of the Esther series, Michael Shockley explores how God works through our worst days to bring about His greatest victories. Through the creative story of Hayden and Morty (paralleling Haman and Mordecai), discover how what appears to be a day of destruction becomes a day of deliverance for God's people. As Esther chapters 9-10 unfold, watch the ironic reversal where the enemies of the Jews are defeated, leading to the establishment of the holiday Purim. From the cafeteria catastrophe to the Persian Empire's transformation, learn how God's unseen hand can flip any story - even turning the worst day in history (the Crucifixion) into humanity's brightest hope. This message reminds us that God doesn't cause our worst days, but He absolutely redeems them. Core Message: God works through our worst days. ---------- KEY TOPICS COVERED The Hayden and Morty Story Introduction - Creative allegory of middle school cafeteria drama - Hayden's quest for revenge against his spelling bee nemesis Morty - The setup for disaster with gravy, creamed asparagus, and chocolate milk - Parallel to the Haman and Mordecai conflict in the Book of Esther - Cliffhanger moment showing how quickly situations can change The Historical Context of Esther 9-10 - Recap of the escalated grudge that led to genocidal decree - Haman's plot against the Jews and his subsequent downfall - The irreversible nature of Persian law requiring a counter-decree - Nine months between the plot's discovery and the day of execution - The choice given to potential attackers to change sides The Day of Reversal (Esther 9:1-5) - The 13th of Adar: from planned destruction to actual deliverance - "The opposite occurred" - complete reversal of expectations - Fear of Mordecai and the Jews falling upon their enemies - Government officials helping the Jews due to Mordecai's prominence - The Jews defeating their enemies throughout the 127 provinces The Spiritual Parallel to God's Law - The Law of Righteousness exposing all people as condemned - God's refusal to lower His standards of perfection - The Law of Grace through faith in Jesus as the "second decree" - Substitution: Jesus taking our punishment on the Cross - Imputation: Christ's righteousness credited to our account The Battle Results and Aftermath - 500 enemies killed in the capital city of Shushan - 75,000 total defeated throughout the Persian Empire - The death of Haman's ten sons (grown men who supported the decree) - The Jews refusing to take spoils - focused on defense, not wealth - Two days of battle followed by peace and celebration The Establishment of Purim - Mordecai's letters establishing an annual holiday - The 14th and 15th of Adar becoming days of celebration - Feasting, joy, gift-giving to family and the needy - The meaning of "Purim" - referring to the lots (Pur) Haman cast - God directing even the roll of dice to accomplish His purposes The Unseen Hand of God - God's fingerprints everywhere despite His name never being mentioned - From orphan and intended victim to champions of peace - The transformation of superstition into recognition of divine favor - How apparent coincidences reveal providence in hindsight The Conclusion of Hayden and Morty - The backpack tear held together by failing duct tape - The pencil on the floor causing Hayden's spectacular fall - The complete reversal: Hayden covered in food, Morty triumphant - "You got served" - divine justice with a sense of humor - From cafeteria catastrophe to unexpected hero status God's Redemption of Our Worst Days - How God doesn't cause our worst days but redeems them - The parallel between Esther's story and the Cross - Turning the day of Crucifixion into humanity's brightest hope - Personal application for loss, failure, betrayal, and current struggles - The invitation to trust Jesus with all we dread ---------- MEMORABLE QUOTES "God works through our worst days." "The Unseen Hand of God turned the day of destruction into the day of deliverance." "He is our Substitute when it comes to the punishment, and His Righteousness is Imputed to us. Which is to say, He suffered through the test, and we got the passing grade." "Even the naming of the holiday shows that God directed even the roll of the dice to choose the day." "God's Name is never spoken, but God's fingerprints are everywhere." "God never wastes our pain. He doesn't cause our worst days, but He redeems them." "If God could turn the horrible day of Crucifixion into the brightest hope in history, He can redeem your story, too." "You got served." (Lunch Lady Loretta) "Got milk?" (Morty) ---------- BIBLICAL FOUNDATION - Primary Text: Esther 9:1-5, Chapters 9-10 complete - Key Theme: Divine reversal and redemption through apparent defeat - Historical Context: The 13th of Adar and the establishment of Purim - Theological Concepts: Substitution and imputation through Christ - Gospel Connection: How God redeems our worst days through the Cross - Literary Note: God's providence shown without direct divine mentions ---------- PRACTICAL APPLICATION If You're Experiencing Your Worst Day Right Now: - Remember that God specializes in flipping stories and reversing outcomes - Trust that what feels like destruction may be setting up deliverance - Know that God's unseen hand is working even when you can't see it - Understand that apparent coincidences often reveal divine providence If You're Dealing with Past Failures and Regrets: - Recognize that God doesn't waste pain but redeems it for purpose - Remember that your worst moments don't define your final story - Trust that the same God who redeemed the Cross can redeem your past - Allow time and perspective to reveal how God was working all along If You Feel Condemned by Your Imperfections: - Understand that God's law reveals our need, not our hopelessness - Know that perfection is required, but Christ provides it for us - Trust in substitution: Jesus took your punishment on the Cross - Believe in imputation: Christ's righteousness is credited to your account If You're Waiting for Justice: - Remember that God's timing often involves longer processes than we expect - Trust that divine justice is more complete than human revenge - Know that God can turn your enemies' attacks into your strengthening - Understand that true victory often looks different than expected If You Haven't Trusted Jesus Yet: - Consider how the Cross transformed history's worst day into its best news - Understand that salvation comes through faith, not perfect performance - Know that God can flip your story no matter how bad it seems - Trust Jesus with all you dread and receive His redemption today ---------- THE ULTIMATE INVITATION Maybe you're living through what feels like your worst day. Loss, failure, betrayal, diagnosis, job loss, or consequences from past mistakes. Perhaps you feel like Morty, about to be destroyed by forces beyond your control. Or maybe you feel like Hayden, watching your carefully laid plans collapse in spectacular failure. The good news of Esther - and the even greater news of the Gospel - is that God works through our worst days. He doesn't cause them, but He redeems them. The same God who turned a day of destruction into deliverance for the Jews, who turned the horror of Crucifixion into the hope of salvation, can flip your story too. Trust Him with all you dread. Trust Jesus for salvation. Your worst day may be setting up God's greatest work in your life. ---------- CONNECT WITH RECREATE CHURCH - Website: recreatechurch.org - Support the Ministry: Give through the Tithe.ly app or offering boxes ---------- What worst day in your life needs God's redemptive touch?

Send us a textEpisode Title: How to Really Live
Abraham was considered by Paul in his letter to the Romans as a case for justification by faith. He concluded, “Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead” (Romans 4:23-24). What a tremendous blessing! What does it mean that righteousness is imputed to those who have faith?
Pastor Dave Cotner - Exit 2A. Righteousness Imputed With Explanation
This week, Pastor Nathan Wakefield continues the Letters to the Church series with Romans 3:21-31. This passage teaches believers that their standing before God is not based on their own works or adherence to the law, but solely on their faith in Christ. It encourages Christians to rest in Christ's righteousness, alleviating the burden of guilt and performance while inviting those outside the faith to embrace the grace that is offered freely.Sermon notes are available on YouVersion Events.Video of the worship service is available for replay.
Understanding the word "imputed""Righteousness...shall be imputed [transferred] to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus." Ro 4:22, 24 NKJVPicture a transfer of funds from one account to another. Banks do it every day. Now imagine yourself destitute and unable to pay your debts. Then in an astounding act of grace, someone assumes all your debts and then transfers to your account such abundance that you never have to work or worry for the rest of your life. That's what happened at the cross when God imputed to Jesus all your sins from the cradle to the grave and imputed all His righteousness to you. Mind-blowing, isn't it? Would you say, "No thanks, I believe in paying my own way"?Would you say, "I can't allow you to do everything while I do nothing, so I'll work for the rest of my life to prove myself worthy of your love and grace"? Salvation is like health food that's labeled "no man-made additives." Understand this: The righteousness required for getting into heaven is not about behaving the right way, but believing the right way. You say, "But I feel such guilt when I sin." You're supposed to! Your new nature is reacting to sin just as your body does to food poisoning. Your boundaries have been violated and your regenerate spirit is saying that you can't indulge in that anymore; it's not who you are! Why did God arrange the plan of salvation in this way? Because any righteousness we could achieve falls far short of His standards. He actually calls it "filthy rags." Understand this: Your rewards in heaven are based upon your behavior, but getting into heaven is based on trusting in Christ alone.Understanding the word "imputed" It's not about behaving the right way, but believing the right way.Share This DevotionalSend us a textSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

The gospel is the most essential message in history, yet it's often treated as a tool for conversion and then set aside. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar discuss how this limits its transformative power in daily life. The cross is not the end of the gospel but the beginning of a deeper understanding as we walk with Christ. Grace, as Mark discovered, is far greater than we imagine. Our journey as believers is lifelong, and even seasoned Christians have only scratched the surface of the gospel's depth.Imputed righteousness is central to Christianity. We are justified—made right with God—the moment we are saved. Sanctification, however, is a lifelong process of becoming more like Christ, where our old selves are put to death. This process can be painful but is necessary for growth, much like pruning a plant. Justification secures our position before God, while sanctification shapes us into Christ's likeness. The more we focus on Christ, the more we desire to reflect Him. Everything in life ultimately works for our good: to be conformed to His image.As we grow closer to God, we become more aware of our sin, which fosters humility. Our identity is found in belonging to Christ, not in our past mistakes. In Him, the old has passed away, and our sins are removed as far as the east is from the west. Jesus paid the ultimate price for our redemption. The guys encourage believers to reflect on if you're focused on your sin or your identity in Christ. Self-condemnation is a tool of the enemy. God sees us as His beloved children, freeing us to love Him fully.The gospel makes this possible. Jesus' sacrifice fulfilled the law's demands on our behalf. Preaching the gospel to yourself means acknowledging that Jesus is the propitiation for our sins and that God's wrath is no longer upon us. Our sins are covered. We must pursue a real, active relationship with God, obeying Him daily, as we do not know how much time we have. The gospel empowers us to live righteously and gives us boldness before God's judgment because Christ stands with us, providing refuge and comfort.The gospel is more than individual salvation—it is God's plan to establish His kingdom on earth as in heaven. From the fall of Adam and Eve to Christ's reign, Scripture reveals this unfolding purpose. Jesus invites us to live under His lordship as gospel people. The gospel is not just one part of life; it is the foundation for everything. It restores purpose, mends relationships, answers life's hardest questions, and transforms lives. Christians need the gospel daily, as it is the power by which we live and grow.Send us a textThanks for listening!
