https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260308dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 True, Lasting Peace Amidst the struggles and hassles of our lives, there is a longing for true, lasting peace. If only there could be the peace that existed in the Garden of Eden. Our first parents lived in perfect harmony with God. They were his friends. And out of that peaceful relationship flowed a warm relationship with one another. The tragedy of sin was that it shattered both the peace between God and people and the peace among people. Quickly after the fall into sin, we see the rise of doubts and fears and hostility, which people directed both toward God and toward one another. True, lasting peace was lost. It's not hard to point to examples in our lives that demonstrate the truth of this: the envy in our hearts, the lust of our eyes, and the hurt that we cause by wayward words and selfish actions. For all these sins and the many more we do, we truly deserve God's eternal wrath and the pronouncement of his condemnation. Yet the remarkable thing is that God loves us, and he demonstrated his one-of-a-kind love by reestablishing peace between himself and his sinful, rebellious world of people. Listen to the words again: “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Every teaching of Scripture rests upon this truth. Though all people are undeserving sinners, Christ sacrificed himself in their place to win peace between God and us. Peace was reestablished through the death of Jesus Christ for “the punishment that brought us peace was upon him” (Isaiah 53:5). God’s righteous wrath against sin was directed at Jesus, and he paid the deadly price for sin with his own precious blood and his innocent sufferings and death. Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). Prayer: O Jesus, by humbling yourself and dying for me, you rescued sinners from the condemnation I deserved. Comfort me with the true, lasting peace which comes from knowing and believing that you are my precious Savior. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

weer opende, zag hij iets bijzonders.En: When he opened his eyes again, he saw something special.Nl: Een kleine bij danste van bloem naar bloem.En: A small bee danced from flower to flower.Nl: De eenvoud van het moment raakte hem.En: The simplicity of the moment touched him.Nl: Johan's gedachten vleugelden op.En: Johan's thoughts soared.Nl: Dit was de inspiratie die hij zocht.En: This was the inspiration he sought.Nl: De bij, zo klein en schijnbaar onbeduidend, was perfect tussen de uitgestrekte velden bloemen.En: The bee, so small and seemingly insignificant, was perfect amidst the vast fields of flowers.Nl: Het maakte hem duidelijk dat schoonheid ook in eenvoud schuilt.En: It made him realize that beauty also lies in simplicity.Nl: Johan pakte zijn schetsboek en begon te tekenen,

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260307dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.” Genesis 12:1-2 Making a Name for Yourself More than one has dreamed of it. Some have been lured by its promise. Others have cursed its lack of fulfillment. We call it many different things: “making it,” “success,” “winning.” Striving for it is as American as Mom and apple pie. It all comes down to making a name for yourself. People have gone about it in different ways, from getting an advanced degree to destroying personal relationships. “How much do you want it?” seems to be the strategy of success. Abram was already a success in the eyes of the world. He was married and wealthy. Then God changed everything. God promised Abram even more. God promised Abram a name so great that generations would remember it. Abram believed God’s promise, left his home, and went to a land he had never been to before. God makes a promise to you, too. His promise is that your name will be great—maybe not here on this earth, but certainly in the roles of heaven. God will make your name great, too. How much do you want it? Believe in Jesus. Abram did. That’s the way God marks success. Prayer: Savior, may your promises fill my heart with eager anticipation to see your glory forever in heaven. Amen.

It may seem counterintuitive that we accomplish more and enjoy what we're doing more from a state of ease and a quiet mind. But effort, drive, and urgency come from fear of failure, not from wisdom. Inspiration, fascination, and pleasure in our activities are positive feelings that arise from a quiet mind focused on what we're doing in the present moment. We don't need to create pressure, anxiety, and drive to succeed. We succeed when we are fully engaged and in touch with our own innate wisdom as our guide, not muddying the activity with worry or over-thinking every move. When we learn to trust wisdom, we can enjoy what we do and approach challenges without fear.Support the show

Romans 4:16 Abraham’s Faith One of the giants of the early Christian church was John Chrysostom. He served as a pastor about 300 years after Jesus rose from the dead. Trained in classical rhetoric, John easily could have made a comfortable life for himself in various professions. Instead, he devoted his considerable gifts to the proclamation of Jesus Christ. Like many a Christian before him and after him, John Chrysostom read from the Old Testament about Abraham. He read how God called Abraham to leave the familiarity of his homeland and live as a permanent stranger somewhere else. He read how Abraham, surrounded by a godless and calloused culture, publicly proclaimed the name of the Lord. And he read how Abraham heard God’s promise that the Savior of the world would one day come from his family, and how Abraham believed that promise. As he thought long and hard about Abraham, about the profound faith Abraham possessed, John Chrysostom said this about Abraham, “He asked no questions, demanded no signs, but trusted the promise alone.” Let’s read that again. Of Abraham, John Chrysostom said, He asked no questions, demanded no signs, but trusted in the promise alone. It is no coincidence that the apostle Paul calls Abraham, “The father of us all,” the father of all of us who believe in Jesus as our Savior. He says this because Abraham embodies what it meant to trust the gospel promises of God. Paul marveled at Abraham’s faith. So did John Chrysostom. So did Martin Luther. How could he do it? How could he trust so fully, without question? Was it his innate strength of character? Was he simply a better, more spiritual, kind of person? That cannot be it. The Bible makes it clear that Abraham was born a lost, broken sinner just like the rest of us. In the end, the answer does not lie in Abraham. Rather, it lies in the power of the promise itself—the promise of full forgiveness in Jesus alone. It is the same promise that feeds your faith and mine. Prayer: Lord Jesus, feed my faith by the power of your promise. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Send a textThe devotion for today, Friday, March 06, 2026 was written by Thomas Riggs and is narrated by Angela Whorton. Today's Words of Inspiration come from Ephesians 2:14-16For Christ himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260305dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Romans 4:3 The Same It’s about thirty years after Jesus has risen from the dead and ascended into heaven. His followers have eagerly shared the Good News of what Jesus has done. As a result, many have come to faith in Jesus as their Savior from sin. New congregations are forming. There is even a gathering of Christians in the capital city of the Roman Empire. Moved by the Holy Spirit, the apostle Paul sits down to write a letter to these Roman believers. What Paul writes is a letter that outlines some fundamentals of the Christian faith. As he does so, he quickly takes on one of the oldest assumptions people make about their relationship with God. That old assumption is this: I assume that, somehow, some way, I have it in me to set things right with God. Sure, I know I’m not the person I should be or could be. But if I keep improving myself, if I make up for the bad in my life by doing good, if I can live a life that’s a little better and more spiritual than most, then I’ll be in a proper position to receive blessings from God. It’s an old assumption that never dies. If Paul were to have a chance to tour our twenty-first century society, nothing would shock him. Even secularists are using the same old tools: Trying to find peace, meaning, fulfillment, identity in what I do. As old as this assumption is, Paul asserts that it is wrong. The answer to “ultimate meaning” lies not in me. It lies only in Jesus Christ. And all he has won for me—forgiveness, peace, meaning, identity, fulfillment—all this is mine through Spirit-created faith in my Savior. Faith alone. To prove it, Paul points back 2,000 years. He points back to Abraham. After God gave Abraham a cluster of promises, at the heart of which was the promise of the coming Savior, the Bible records that “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness” (Genesis 15:6). For Abraham. For Paul. For us. The answer is the same. The answer is Jesus. Prayer: Lord Jesus, when the temptation comes to look inward, move me to look to you. Amen.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260304dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Abram] … pitched his tent there, with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to the LORD and proclaimed the name of the LORD. Genesis 12:8 Proclamation “I can worship God at home. I can read the Bible at home. I can pray at home. And so, I really don’t get what the difference is between my worship at home and my worship at church. Isn’t it all the same thing?” Yes. And no. Can I praise my Lord in the privacy of my home? Yes. By myself, can I let the Word of my Lord speak to me? Yes. When I am all alone, can I talk to my Lord in prayer? Absolutely. And thank God for the privilege. But if I then conclude that there is no need for me to gather with others to do what I can more conveniently do at home, then I have overlooked something; something big. Then I need to sit down for a moment and watch Abram. Abram had just completed a journey. In this journey, he left his homeland far behind. Throughout this journey, he did not know where he was going. But now God has made it clear where Abram is to live. He is to pitch his tent in the land of Canaan; a land, God says, he will give to Abram’s descendants. And so, Abram pitches his tent. He, his family, along with the families of his shepherds, herdsmen, and laborers—they all set up camp. But the episode does not end there. Surrounding Abram’s household is a Canaanite culture that is calloused and often shocking in its ungodliness. And so, what does Abram do next? He builds an altar and proclaims the name of the Lord. He proclaims the Lord. Publicly. Openly. He does not just have a quiet devotion in the privacy of his tent. He does not just meditate on God’s Word by himself. He does not just pray to the Lord when he is all alone. He builds an altar and proclaims. For all to see. For all to hear. He publicly proclaims the only Savior from sin the world is ever going to have. Like Abram, let’s take advantage of every opportunity to publicly proclaim the name of the Lord. Prayer: Lord Jesus, you’re the only Savior there is. Move me to proclaim you with my fellow believers. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this post that was really eye-opening for many reasons. First was that I've never heard this and then when I sat back - I saw the power and the truth about it. Second - I was amazed at the confidence I felt after I thought about this, along with the fact that it's not just for one day a year we need to do this! The post came from Inspiration & More (@LifeWithJohn) where he shares with us these thoughts: “March 4th is the only day of the year that acts as a command. To "March forth" means to take action, move forward, and make progress. It's also the only date of the year that's a sentence. Now you know!” The quote he shared was “today is the only day in the year that tells you to do something: March 4th.” Wow! At 60 years old - I am amazed it took me this long to catch this one along with the inspirational truth that comes with it. Every day is connected to the same message that came to my mind: Keep going! Keep moving! Don't quit! Don't Give Up! Get Better Today! Keep Believing! Keep Loving! Keep Forgiving… and so many more along with Keep Living!! I'm emotional as I type out these thoughts and show notes. Just like the emotions will show up in the recording too. Thanks for listening.

A big welcome back to Philip Lupton and Truett Heintzelman of Briscoe who return to the show this week. Briscoe's phenomenal second full-length album, Heat of July, came out in September. Produced by Brad Cook, who assembled a folk-rock supergroup, the album features members of Houndmouth, Mipso and Bon Iver along with Andrew Marlin of Watchhouse and legend Phil Cook.Philip and Truett are childhood friends — they've lived almost parallel lives, and they talk to me about the delicate balance that puts their personal lives at the forefront while continuing to tour endlessly. It's a formula that they seek to perfect and we discuss how and why it's working for them.These guys are always down for a fun chat, and we chop it up with laughs and tons of fun stories from the road in this epic interview.===================================Chapters: 0:00 Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg4:53 The Release of 'Heat of July' and ACL Festival Experience7:41 Musical Roots and Influences10:49 Admiration for The Avett Brothers13:54 Collaboration with Brad Cook16:51 The Evolution of Their Sound19:40 Personal Growth and Marriage22:49 Conclusion and Future Plans26:00 Love Stories and Life Changes32:17 Navigating Marriage and Music39:04 Balancing Touring and Relationships41:32 Songwriting on the Road46:47 Exploring Current Events Through Music53:47 Learning from the Greats57:54 Evolving Performance and Audience Dynamics1:03:41 Creative Progression and Musical Exploration1:11:45 Anticipating Future Tours and New Music1:17:02 Episode Wrap-up with Host Josh Rosenberg===================================For more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email: info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music: "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

Stefan Molyneux talks with a weary 35-year-old man who hesitates to start a family because he sees society unraveling into chaos and instability. Molyneux listens, then challenges the fear head-on: perfect conditions never arrive, history is always turbulent, and waiting for the world to fix itself is just another form of avoidance. He frames the decision plainly—either shrink back into safety and bitterness, or accept that real courage means building a life, raising children, and creating something worth protecting even when everything looks uncertain. Personal responsibility, he says, isn't about mastering external events; it's about mastering what you do with the time you're given. By the conversation's end the caller's voice has changed—not free of doubt, but no longer paralyzed. Molyneux leaves him, and anyone listening, with the same stark point: the future isn't handed to you. You have to decide, act, and live as though it actually matters—because it does.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
