Podcasts about Jael

This week, Pastor Brad Noel continues our series with Judges 4 & 5. We're reminded of God's unfailing mercy and justice. The story of Deborah, Barak, and Jael illustrates how God uses unexpected people to fulfill His purposes. The passage challenges us to consider: Are we fully embracing God's calling on our lives, or are […] The post Judges 4-5 – Characters and Covenants appeared first on Sierra Bible Church.

We explore the story of Deborah and Jael in Judges 4 as a dragon-slaying story, and talk about the invitation for all of us to participate in the story of […]

In this episode, we dive into the story of Deborah, the fearless prophetess and only female judge of Israel, found in Judges 4–5. After the death of Ehud, Israel falls back into idolatry and ends up under the iron grip of Canaanite King Jabin and his war chief, Sisera. But God's plan unfolds through Deborah, a reluctant general named Barak, and an unexpected heroine, Jael, who drives a tent peg straight into history. We'll explore the political intrigue, military might, and divine intervention that led to one of the Bible's most riveting victories.

Pastor Kristen brings a message from Judges about Jael, who used what she had as a housewife to bring victory to Israel.

Deborah, Jael, and Mary the mother of Jesus are each significant women in their work for the Kingdom of God. Pastor Kirk helps us understand as he opens up the book of Judges, chapters 4 and 5, and the Gospels and the story of Mary.visit us at: conejochurch.com

We see one of the more well-known stories of a judge today, the story of Deborah.  In this story, we see three people who have different responses. We see Deborah and Jael, who use God's gifts to be faithful and overthrow the evil king and general. But we also seek Barak, who God uses, but because of his lack of faith, God cannot fully use him as God may like. The people that God can fully use are people who have a variety of gifts, but regardless of their gift, they are willing to be used by God. Today, will we use the gifts for God's glory, no matter how great or small they may be?

In the tumultuous period following Joshua's death, Israel faced oppression under King Jabin and his general Sisera for 20 years. During this time of spiritual decline, God raised up Deborah as both prophetess and judge over Israel. When God chose Barak to lead the army, he refused to go without Deborah, leading her to step forward with remarkable courage despite it not being her intended role. Her faith and leadership proved crucial in Israel's victory.The story takes an unexpected turn when Sisera, fleeing from defeat, seeks refuge in Jael's tent. Though a Gentile woman, Jael courageously fulfilled God's prophecy through her bold actions. These two women exemplify how God uses unlikely people to accomplish His purposes through courageous faith. Their story teaches vital lessons about confronting fear, dealing decisively with evil, and trusting completely in God's plan, even when it seems improbable. Their examples challenge us to identify areas where fear holds us back and to take bold steps forward in faith. First Baptist Church depends on faithful and generous giving.

Be Bold & Be ObedientLuke 1:38 “Then Mary said, “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.”This month in mentoring, the theme is “For Such A Time As This.” Last week, I talked about Joseph and Moses and how they were in the perfect place at the perfect time. It wasn't an easy road for them to get there. They were both broken and then they were positioned. Then I talked about Mary and Deborah. I explored how they went from being obedient to Empowered. This morning, we will look at how saying yes to God can change everything.“Obedience isn't about perfection. It's about saying yes to God—even when it doesn't make sense.” Often, God will ask us to do something, and we have no idea why he is asking us to do it. We don't feel qualified. We don't understand the plan, and sometimes, we just really don't want to do it. Also, God often asks for our 'yes' before He reveals the full plan. This is why obedience is so important. Our yes allows God to work within us and through us.Obedience is the bridge between calling and empowerment. So what this means is that being called to do something isn't enough—you don't just instantly arrive at empowerment. The way to get from calling to being empowered to carry it out is through obedience: taking steps in faith, even when it's hard, unclear, or uncomfortable. In other words, “You may have a purpose, but your obedience activates the power to walk in it.”Let's talk about Mary first. Mary was a young, willing vessel. Let's listen to Mary's Yes to the Lord in Luke 1:26-38. “In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,  to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary. And he came to her and said, “Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.” But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.  And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David. He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom, there will be no end.”  Mary said to the angel, “How can this be since I am a virgin?” The angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore, the child to be born[c] will be holy; he will be called Son of God. And now, your relative Elizabeth, in her old age, has also conceived a son, and this is the sixth month for her who was said to be barren.  For nothing will be impossible with God.”  Then Mary said, “Here am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.” Then, the angel departed from her.To Summarize:- God chose a young, ordinary girl to carry the Savior of the world.- Mary responded in faith, not fully understanding. Do you think if Mary had known the complete story, she would have said yes? This could be why we don't always know the full story before we have to answer, either. The person we are when we say Yes to the Lord is probably not the same person we will be at the end of the story. Mary was young when she said yes to all the Lord had planned for her. She was not the same young girl when she was sitting at the foot of the cross. She had many other experiences in her life that prepared her and trained her to be the woman she was at the foot of the cross.Mary's obedience unlocked the miracle of Jesus entering the world. Mary had free will, just like the rest of us. What if she had said no? Where would we be right now? Thank goodness for Mary's obedience!Now, we will talk about Deborah. Deborah was a prophetess and the only female judge mentioned in the Bible. Her story is found in Judges 4–5. She led Israel during a time of oppression under the Canaanite king Jabin and his army commander Sisera.Her position was that of Judge and Prophetess of Israel during the era of the Judges before Israel had kings. She provided wisdom, judgment, and spiritual leadership. People came to her for decisions and guidance. She summoned Barak, a military leader, and told him God commanded him to go to war against Sisera. (Judges 4:14) Barak agreed—but only if Deborah went with him. She did.Israel defeated the Canaanite army, and Sisera was ultimately killed by a woman named Jael. Deborah was a worshipper and Poet: Judges 5 records the Song of Deborah, a victory hymn celebrating God's deliverance and the bravery of those who fought.To Summarize:- She was a prophetess and judge in a time when women had little influence.- Her obedience in speaking and leading brought victory.- She led with courage, wisdom, and worship (Judges 5).What Obedience Looks Like1. **Saying Yes in the Unknown**  - Mary didn't have all the answers. Yet she said yes anyway.  - Obedience requires trust more than clarity. Mary could say yes because she knew it was the Lord asking, and she knew she could trust the Lord.2. **Speaking When It's Risky**  - Deborah spoke with authority even when it challenged norms. I am sure it was frowned upon at that time for a woman, even if she was a judge, to tell a military captain to go to war. Yet she did it anyway. Can you think of other people in the Bible who spoke up even when it was Risky?  - Your voice can unlock someone else's breakthrough. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine having the courage to speak up, even when risky, could unlock someone else's breakthrough? Has this happened to you before? Have you said something, and then someone else has had a breakthrough because of it? This happens a lot when praying over people for the prophetic word. Speaking the prophetic word to people takes courage because you aren't sure if what you are hearing is from the Lord or if it is just your own voice getting in your head. We tend to dismiss what we hear because it is far easier to believe that we are making stuff up than to believe that God is talking to us.However, God does talk to us. When we are brave and step out in faith and tell someone the prophetic word we hear from them, the word we hear may cause them to have a breakthrough. It is so beautiful to witness this, to see them realize how much God loves them and how much He really knows them.3. **Moving Despite Fear**  - Courage isn't the absence of fear; it's action in the face of it. My brother has this quote at the end of all of his emails, and I remember the first time I read it, I loved it. There will be times you want to quit every good thing you do in this life, persist. Courage is not the absence of fear; it is the mastery of it. If God is asking you to do something, trust that he will give you the courage you need to do it!4. **Worshiping Through the Process**  - Both Mary and Deborah responded with songs of praise.  - Worship shifts our focus from fear to faith.When We Obey, God Empowers- Obedience invites the Holy Spirit to move through us.- Empowerment is not about control or power but about being vessels of God's glory.- God equips those He calls—He never asks for a yes without backing it up with power. You may not feel qualified to do the thing God is asking you to do. However, He wouldn't be asking if He wasn't going to give you all you needed to do the job. If you feel unqualified, join the club. I don't remember reading a single story in the Bible where the person felt qualified to do what they were called to do. Except David when fighting Goliath, and this was only because he knew that he wasn't fighting Goliath alone. He knew the Lord was on his side and would defeat Goliath. Imagine how braver we would all be if we knew that, too.I want to leave you with these last thoughts.- You don't need to have it all figured out.- God honors your yes.- He turns willing hearts into powerful instruments.- Your obedience today could be the key to someone else's miracle tomorrow.I am also going to give you some questions to think about. I gave these to those in mentoring but they are great questions for all of us to think about today.1. **What is God asking you to say yes to?**2. **Where do you need to trust more and understand less?**3. **Who might be waiting for you to rise up like Deborah?**4. **What can you praise God for in the middle of your obedience?**If you have some time today, sit with the Lord and answer these questions together!Dear Heavenly Father, thank you to all those listening to this episode. Lord, I ask you to bless them and their families. Lord, we want to be obedient. Please help us. Help us to get out of our own heads. Help us to remember that if you are for us, who could be against us? Help us remember that you will give us the strength and courage to get everything done. If you call us, you will equip us. You will help us find the time, strength, and whatever else we need to do this thing you are calling us to do. We love you, Lord, and we are so grateful you never leave us alone to do these things. You are always there to do them with us. Thank you. We pray all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus's holy name.

Deborah was a prophetess who also judged Israel in a season when the Hebrews had been oppressed for decades by King Jabin of Canaan. Through her bold leadership God confirmed His call upon Barak to muster an army, and the LORD was faithful to defeat Sisera and his 900 chariots of iron. God uses unlikely people like Barak, Amos and Jael to do His will and overcome all odds, because God does the impossible. Verses in order of appearance: Judges 4:1-3 Judges 4:4-7 Judges 4:8-10 Hebrews 11:32-34 Judges 4:11-16 Amos 7:14-15 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 Judges 4:17-20 Judges 4:21-24 Judges 5:26 Psalm 83:9-10 Judges 5:24 Psalm 83:16-18 Verses mentioned but not displayed: John 9 Genesis 24:67 Genesis 31:33

In this Bible Story, Jabin and his general Sisera oppress Israel for over 20 years. The Lord sent Deborah, a mighty and wise woman. He also sent Barak, the commander of Israel's armies. Sisera fled, and was in the tent of a woman named Jael, and killed in his sleep with a tent peg through his skull. This story is inspired by Judges 4-5.

And so once again they are allowed to be set under the oppression of a foreign ruler, Jabin king of Canaan and Sisera's commander. God, however, had a message for the commander of Israel's army, Barak. He told him through the prophetess and judge, Deborah, to go out and claim victory. Though he was willing, Barak, like many of us, showed cowardice at the size of his enemy's army, and though God gave them the victory, He allowed a woman named Jael to claim the glory instead.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

James 5:7-12 | Preached by Jael Veen at Midweek Communion on 20th March 2025

Being a woman can be so hard. But being a woman can also be so empowering - and God's got a special place for women in His kingdom. You may have heard of Mary and Eve - maybe Ruth or Esther. But have you ever heard of Hagar? Jael? Jehosheba? There are so many incredible women in the Bible, and something they all have in common: their bravery.

Jael Holzman is a senior reporter at Heatmap and the author of our newsletter, “The Fight,” about local battles over renewable permitting around the country. On this week's episode of Shift Key, Rob and Jesse talk to Jael about the bleak outlook for offshore wind, the use of presidential authority to impede energy development, and why solar has been spared — so far. Shift Key is hosted by Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University, and Robinson Meyer, Heatmap's executive editor.Mentioned: The FightHeatmap ProOffshore Wind Faces Its ‘Worst Case Scenario' Under TrumpTrump is targeting Dominion's Coastal Virginia offshore wind project in VirginiaA Wave of Anti-Renewables Bills Hits State LegislaturesNew York's Battery BacklashHow Bad Information Is Breaking the Energy TransitionSolar's Growing “Prime Farmland” ProblemJesse's upshift; Rob's upshift.--Music for Shift Key is by Adam Kromelow.

Save 25% off an annual subscription to Dwell here. During today's podcast on Back Porch Theology we're exploring one of the greatest leaders in the history of God's people who just so happens to be a chick named Deb! She was both a judge and a prophetess. Which means she was kind of like a president and pastor rolled into one - the entire prone-to-wander nation of Israel turned to her for leadership, wisdom, and spiritual guidance. And another unlikely heroine makes her debut during Deborah's timeline, too. Her name was Jael and let me tell you, that woman was LEGIT - she could have held her own against a burly, tatted MMA fighter twice her size! Even though these women's stories take place long before David's in redemptive history, they illustrate what God said to Samuel about Davey when he was anointed to be the future king of Israel before he even started shaving, “People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” In other words, God delights in using misfits in miraculous ways. Don't forget, the book of Judges was a bleak chapter in the history of God's people – there was no king on the throne, the Word of God was not being taught in the land, and most people were doing whatever crooked little hearts desired. It looked as if their toes were hanging over the edge of obscurity. And based on their rebellion and idolatry, they deserved to be fried into greased spots of oblivion by some divine lightning bolt. Instead, our Heavenly Father inserts a couple of unlikely heroes into their drama, which results in an epic military victory as well as a national revival. The brightest mornings often follow the darkest nights when we give God the sole authorship of our story. It a great day to hang out on the porch, so please grab your favorite beverage, your Bible, and a snack and come prop your feet up with us. We love getting to spend this time with you.

Join us the next 7 weeks as we explore life lessons that can be found in the stories of murder in the Bible. Week 7, we are diving into the story of Jael and the tent peg found in Judges.

16th February 2025: Continuing in our series in the book of Judges, Jonathan takes us through the story of Deborah, Barak, & Jael.

On today's episode, we hear about daughters of valor and we learn about what makes a strong woman. As we read through these chapters of Judges we can quickly find out that they are leaders we can follow. They are displays of grace, wisdom, confidence and strength, who wouldn't want their hero to have those qualities? Stay tuned in for more on Deborah and Jael in Judges 4-5!

When Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord again, the military commander Sisera was raised up to oppress them. Barak was called by God to lead a resistance against Sisera, but he refused to go alone. Deborah proclaimed that Sisera would be defeated by the hand of a woman in place of Barak. When the Lord caused Sisera to flee to the tent of Jael for refuge, he was met with the hammer and tent peg of brave Jael. God uses the most unlikely vessels at times to accomplish His greatest victories. The eyes of the Lord are in every place, and He will ultimately bring justice. Nobody has gotten away with anything, and there will be nowhere to run at the judgment. Only in Christ can we be pardoned of what is due us. Have you prepared to meet your God?

Matthew Dowling, preaching minister at the Plymouth Church of Christ, preached a message titled "Jael: When Hospitality Becomes Heroic" from Judges 4.

  In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood explores the profound significance of Genesis 3:15, the "Protoevangelium"—the first announcement of the Gospel. He examines how this verse lays the foundation for the entire Bible's story of redemption, pointing to the ultimate defeat of Satan through the “Seed” of the woman. Through biblical examples like David and Goliath, Jael and Judith, and the crucifixion of Jesus, Steve illustrates the recurring theme of head-crushing victory. This episode highlights how Genesis 3:15 unfolds across the Old and New Testaments, culminating in the victory of Christ and his Church. Tune in to deepen your understanding of biblical prophecy and redemption.   Referenced in this episode:  Genesis 3:15 1 Samuel 17:46 1 Samuel 17:49 1 Samuel 17:51 1 Samuel 17:54 1 Samuel 17:57 John 19:17 Judges 4:21 Judges 5:24 Judith 13:6-8 Judith 13:18 Judith 14:18-19 John 2:4 John 19:26 Revelation 12 For exclusive content and additional resources on biblical prophecy, visit https://luke21.com/  Bible translations Steve recommends: RSV-CE – Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition ESV – English Standard Version, if you don't want to use a Catholic bible We appreciate your interest in learning about biblical prophecy!

"Reshaping Clay" (Season 4, Episode 6) brings to the Bimah Aviva Pearl Creation and Jael Scott, the creative forces behind "Clay Mommy," a new play that reimagines the golem myth through a trans lens. Based in NYC, this writer-director duo discusses their production, where traditional Jewish storytelling meets contemporary trans narratives. In this deep-diving conversation, Pearl and Scott share their vision behind casting an all-trans-femme ensemble and their creative decision to represent men in the show through puppetry. We explore how their production navigates complex themes of chosen family, motherhood, and spiritual transformation while honoring Jewish and trans experiences. The episode illuminates how contemporary Jewish theater can evolve to embrace different voices while remaining rooted in passed down stories and cultural knowledge. Their self-described position as "little trunk rats of the New Age Borscht Belt" offers a fresh perspective on Jewish theater traditions.

When we think of heroes, we might picture warriors or kings—but what about mothers? This episode dives into the lives of two extraordinary women who forever changed the course of Israel’s history: Deborah, a national leader, and Jael, a stay-at-home mom. Both women stepped boldly into their God-given roles and proved that no position is too small or too great for God to use. In this inspiring finale to our series on women in Scripture, Catherine is joined by Dr. Sandra Richter, renowned Bible scholar and creator of the video series The Epic of Eden: Deborah, Unlikely Heroes in the Book of Judges. Together, they shed light on the lives of these women and the profound lessons they offer for today’s believers. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: Deborah: A Mother in IsraelDiscover how Deborah shattered societal norms to lead her nation as a judge, prophet, and military strategist—all while embracing her identity as a "mother in Israel." Jael: The Unexpected HeroLearn how Jael, armed with nothing but household tools, courageously defeated Sisera, proving that faith and bravery can transform even the simplest actions into acts of divine deliverance. God’s Calling Transcends CultureExplore the patriarchal backdrop of ancient Israel and how God’s plans for Deborah and Jael defied the expectations of their time. A Message for TodayWhether leading in the public sphere or influencing from the heart of the home, Deborah and Jael show us that God uses mothers to accomplish His purposes. Their stories challenge and encourage us to step boldly into the roles God has called us to. Setting the Record StraightGain fresh insights into Barak’s character and how his partnership with Deborah highlights the value of faith-filled collaboration. Why This Matters:Deborah and Jael’s stories remind us that God doesn’t measure significance by status or title. From the highest leader in the land to a mother in her tent, God equips and calls women to vital roles in His Kingdom. Modern Application:Parents, take heart! These narratives inspire us to lead with courage in our homes and communities, trusting that God can use our actions—big or small—for His redemptive work.

Mark Lanier continued his series on Lesser-Known Bible Women with a study of Jael - Courage in a Crisis, from Judges 4:2 - 5:27. Mark divides the lesson into: 1. Context and Characters:  Israel is under oppression from the Canaanite army led by Sizer who has control of the Jezerel Valley. The people are regulated to the mountains where it is not suited for agriculture and the trade routes are blocked. Deborah was Israel's prophet and judge who commands Barak to lead Israelites into battle and defeat Sisera. Jael was a woman from a tribe friendly to the Canaanites who drives a tent peg into Sisera's temple. The Narrative Tension: Describes one story from 2 perspectives in Judges 4 and 5. 3. The theological implications (Take Home Points): God can use unexpected deliverers 2. God uses the everyday stuff 3. Have courage Listen to Mark teach how God works thru everything. He still rescues and provides for us despite time, culture, and circumstances.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Annelle Sheline, research fellow in the Middle East program at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, to discuss the reporting around a recently brokered ceasefire deal in Israel & Gaza. Then, she speaks with Jael Holzman, senior reporter at HeatMap News, to discuss her recent piece entitled "The Growing Push to Ban Renewable Energy in Oklahoma." First, Emma runs through updates on Netanyahu's torpedoing of the alleged ceasefire, including an escalation killing dozens more in Gaza, ProPublica's report on Biden's suppression of dissent over Gaza, Trump's CEO cabal, the US' TikTok Ban, Trump's AG nom, the FTC's report on UnitedHealthcare's overcharging of cancer patients by nearly 1000%, and compensation for women's college basketball players, before expanding briefly on the odd power plays between Trump and Biden over the developing TikTok Ban. Dr. Annelle Sheline then joins, diving right into this week's development of a predictably brief ceasefire in Gaza, including Netanyahu's immediate refusal to abide by its requirement and the following escalation resulting in some 70 dead, unpacking why Bibi has once again sabotaged a deal, why Trump still wants peace for his inauguration, and why Netanyahu's sights for the second Trump Administration are set on the West Bank. Next, Dr. Sheline and Emma shift to unpacking the future of the normalization attempt between Israel and Saudi Arabia – a process that the Biden Administration happily picked up off of Trump 1.0 – and the genuine danger of Trump extending the guarantee of uncritical military support that we provide Israel to Saudi Arabia as well, before wrapping up with a conversation on the particular role the Biden Administration's support for Israel's genocide in Gaza had on undermining support for Kamala Harris' candidacy. Jael Holzman then looks to Oklahoma as she walks Emma through the developing push to ban renewable energy projects locally, exploring how the expansion of the industry alongside a growing reactionary movement helped bolster this drive, despite its obvious potential negative impacts. Expanding on this, Holzman and Emma briefly explore the evolution of this “Green MAGA” movement as exemplified by RFK Jr., and the increasing problem of a green energy incentive structure based on tax credits, before wrapping up by tackling the extractive and material incentives for Trump's fantasy land grab of Greenland. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they dive deep into the exposé of Elon Musk's gamer fraud, talk with Jersey Boy from Milwaukee about engaging in disagreement, and watch Sam Husseini's righteous and confrontational action at Blinken's final press conference. Jay from Oregon unpacks some finer details of the nurses' strike, Pete Hegseth shies away from promising not to be a hypocrite, and Jeff from CA shares his insight into Hegseth's problematic history when it comes to a Defense Secretary nomination, plus, your calls and IMs!

Not your typical feel good story today. This is the harsh reality of war. Today we talk about Jael, a women 3000 years ago in the middle east who dared to raise her hand against a man, a General who came as a friend, to the house of her husband. She was a Kenite woman, from a nomadic tribe of people who were probably friends with the Israelites. They were the people of Moses' wife. This is her story from the book of Judges.

Join Katie's Jubilee Year Pilgrimage to Rome and Assisi: https://bit.ly/rome_assisi // Exploring the story of the Visitation we discover a text bursting with Old Testament allusions. We see the evangelist subtly comparing Jesus and John the Baptist to Jacob and Esau and Our Lady herself finds parallel in two Old Testament women, Jael and Judith, women who found fame crushing the heads of their enemies. An overarching theme comes to prominence, however, that of the Ark of the Covenant. Just as the Old Testament Ark of the Covenant sojourned for a time in the hill country of Judea, so does the new Ark of the Covenant sojourn there as well.

We catch up briefly on news around the arrest of the alleged UHC CEO assassin. Then, journalist and musician Jael Holzman returns to the show to discuss a new piece she has for Rolling Stone on the potential threats to trans people in the coming Trump administration. We look at the rather grim potential of massively undermining of trans medical care, the equally grim state of Democratic opposition, and the general fecklessness with which Democrats have handled what Joe Biden once called the “civil rights issue of our time” in both policy and rhetoric.

If you are struggling in some sort of crisis, KNOW that God has placed unlikely vessels of deliverance often in the very place of your struggle. In a health crisis, God has an ally fighting for your healing. In financial ruin, God has a friend rallying for your relief. In an unlikely situation, God placed Jael behind enemy lines to defeat the commander of the Canaanite army oppressing Israel, ultimately leading to the victory of the nation of Israel. In YOUR oppression, God has placed allies where you do not see to PAVE A WAY for your victory, and nobody even knows about it.   Monologue: Autumn talks about the importance of listening to the Holy Spirit   Message: Autumn dives into how God had placed an ally behind enemy lines for Israel and how He does the same for believers today.   Testimony: Autumn shares a testimony from an ex-addict who got to baptize her daughter she had lost.   Bible References: Judges 4   Links from the show BOOKS: www.autumnmiles.com/resources SPEAKING: www.autumnmiles.com/speaking MERCH: autumnmiles.square.site   If you have a suggestion for the ministry, a question for Autumn, a testimony to share, or other inquiry for the Autumn Miles Ministries, click here and fill out the form, or send us an email at hello@autumnmiles.com    Join us on social media!

Listen as Pastor Geoff walks through the topic of biblical womanhood and manhood through the lives of Deborah, Jael and Barak as found in Judges 4:1-5:2, 31.

Pastor David Hughes explores how figures like Deborah, Jael, and Hedy Lamarr reveal that true strength and purpose extend beyond superficial appearances and societal expectations, showing that individuals are equipped for greater callings.

Will talks to musician and climate journalist Jael Holzman (Ekko Astral, Heatmap News) about her experience as a congressional reporter at outlets like Axios and Politico, and the conditions that led her to quit. We discuss the institutionalized bias against accurate reporting on topics like climate change and trans rights & healthcare, the outrageous complacency with baseless stories from the likes of LibsofTikTok, and other incidents of casual “lavender scare” that permeate the D.C. press corp.
