When you think about how much it cost Jesus to set us free, it's hard to imagine returning to bondage. Dr. Tony Evans explains how easy it is to slip back into slavery—and how to live fully in the freedom grace provides.
“Where do we see the Mass in Acts of the Apostles?” This question opens a discussion on the early Church’s practices, alongside topics like defending infant baptism against claims of its necessity, and the significance of Jesus’ addition of “mind” in Mark 12:30. The conversation also touches on the reasons behind reluctance to go to confession and the implications of the papacy’s location. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:20 – Where do we see the Mass in Acts of the Apostles? 09:38 – How do we defend the baptism of infants? My co-worker says you just need faith and it's not necessary to baptize babies. 17:52 – In Mark 12:30 Jesus quotes the great shema. In Deuteronomy it says to love God with your whole heart, soul, and strength. Why does Mark add the word “mind” to that? 22:15 – Why do some people feel reluctant to go to confession? 28:39 – Is the papacy so tied to Rome that it could never be somewhere else? If Islam took over Europe could the pope be based somewhere else? 31:58 – Why isn't the book of Maccabees in the King James Bible? I'm trying to talk about the faith with my Seventh Day Adventist family members. 41:00 – Mt 10:3 calls James son of Alpheus, and Mk 2:14-17 calls Levi the son of Alpheus. Could they be brothers? 44:17 – My grown children think we are living in a simulation. How can I counter this? 50:13 – You said the King James did not translate the deuterocan books. But I have two KJV Bibles that include the deuterocanonical books. 52:01 – I've been getting along with my new coworkers because they are Christian. But today Mary came up and they really attacked Catholic teaching on Mary. What can I say to them?

Jamie Walden joins Tony for a direct and practical conversation about preparedness, survival, and the responsibility Christians have to think ahead. Drawing from his background as a Marine Corps infantry sergeant and years of ministry work, Jamie explains why preparation is not rooted in fear but in wisdom, stewardship, and protecting the people God has placed in your care. He walks through the mindset shift believers need if systems fail, emphasizing community, skill-building, and the importance of developing resilient families and churches. The discussion also explores how modern comfort has weakened many people's ability to endure hardship. Jamie argues that preparation begins with spiritual readiness, but it must also include practical planning and discipline. The goal, he says, is not isolation or paranoia, but building communities capable of standing firm and helping others when difficult times arrive.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Are Christians Cowards? | Coffee with KeysDescription: In this episode of Coffee with Keys, 19Keys asks a bold and uncomfortable question: why do some modern Christians openly attack Islam while avoiding criticism of other religious systems?This thought-provoking brief explores the historical, psychological, and cultural dynamics behind religious conflict in the modern world. 19Keys reflects on the teachings of Jesus, the similarities between Christianity and Islam, and the role propaganda, politics, and fear may play in shaping public narratives.Rather than offering final answers, this conversation is meant to spark deeper reflection, dialogue, and courage in examining our own beliefs and the systems around us.If you're seeking higher-level conversations about faith, culture, power, and truth, this episode invites you to think beyond the surface.Learn more about SuperMind Coffee and cognitive wellness: asupermind.comJoin the Ziion community for exclusive content, conversations, and access: ziion.ioSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/19keys/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Burnout is a silent crisis that often hides behind faithfulness, especially among those serving others while quietly running on empty. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar confront the unseen pressure carried by pastors, leaders, and faithful believers who struggle to say no and rarely step aside to rest. The guys remind listeners that even Jesus called His disciples to come away and rest, modeling the need for both physical and spiritual renewal. Many assume those they admire are immune to exhaustion, yet the burden of ministry can quietly erode joy and clarity when limits are ignored.The guys explore how burnout is often rooted in a lack of abiding in Christ rather than mere overwork. Mark shares that when prayer and communion with the Lord diminish, pressure mounts, and running on empty feels normal. Intentional prayer, written requests, and persistent seeking restore perspective and remind believers of God's faithfulness. Oscar reflects on seasons of burnout tied to conflict and disappointment in ministry, recognizing that even faithful effort must be grounded in the reapplication of the gospel. Community tension, envy, and self-seeking reveal the need for repentance and a renewed vision of Christ. The guys examine how sin and self-righteousness can quietly fuel exhaustion. Wandering thoughts and hidden rebellion rob believers of peace, while striving to earn God's favor produces spiritual fatigue. Grace must move from concept to reality, transforming discipline into delight. Love for God and neighbor becomes the fuel that revives weary hearts, shifting focus away from perfectionism and performance. Legalism and antinomianism both distort the gospel and leave souls restless, yet adoption in Christ frees believers from slavery to self. Rest flows from knowing the love of God deeply and personally, not merely affirming it intellectually.Finally, the guys offer practical encouragement for those carrying heavy loads. True rest involves both body and soul, embracing the Sabbath principle and admitting weakness before the Lord and trusted community. E.Z. reflects on the strain of overwhelming responsibility and the danger of carrying practical burdens alone. The guys urge believers to speak up, seek help, and humble themselves rather than suffer silently. They also call churches and families to support one another actively, lightening the load through encouragement and tangible care. Burnout does not disqualify a believer but can become an invitation to deeper dependence, renewed love, and lasting rest in Christ.Send a textThanks for listening!

Sometimes the most profound lessons about faith are found in the simplest parts of creation. Jesus pointed to wildflowers—small, fragile, and easily overlooked—to teach a powerful truth about trust and provision. In Luke 12:27, Jesus tells us to “consider how the wildflowers grow.” They do not work endlessly to secure their future. They do not worry about appearance or provision. Yet God clothes them with beauty that surpasses even the splendor of King Solomon. This invitation is more than poetic imagery—it is a challenge to our anxious hearts. So much of our energy is spent striving: trying to secure financial stability, maintain control over our circumstances, or ensure everything unfolds according to our plans. Worry can quietly dominate our thoughts, convincing us that everything depends on our effort. But the wildflowers tell another story. They grow in quiet dependence. They trust the sun to rise and the rain to fall. Without striving, they flourish exactly as God designed them. Their beauty reflects the care of the Creator who sustains them. Jesus used this image to remind His listeners that if God cares for something as small and temporary as a flower, how much more does He care for His children? Worry often pulls our attention toward what we lack or what might go wrong. But when we shift our focus to God’s provision—seen throughout creation—we remember that He is attentive, present, and faithful. Considering the wildflowers is not about ignoring real concerns. It is about remembering who ultimately holds our lives in His hands. As we seek God first, He promises to provide what we truly need. Main Takeaways Jesus used the wildflowers as a reminder of God’s faithful provision. Worry often distracts us from trusting God’s care. Creation reflects God’s attention to detail and beauty. Faith involves releasing control and trusting God’s provision. Seeking God first brings peace that replaces anxiety. Today’s Bible Verse Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. — Luke 12:27 (NIV) Your Daily Prayer Prayer excerpt for listeners: “Help me trust Your provision and release the worries I’ve been carrying.” Listen to the full prayer here.

Bald Guy Brew Coffee is located in Boone, NC. Boone and the surrounding region were devastated by Hurricane Helene and still have not received enough federal support to fully rebuild over a year later. Yet we have spent over $11 Billion on a war we started in Iran, after only 12 days. The hypocrisy is real. People in our nation are more consumed with killing people they only know through propaganda, than demanding the necessary support for regions in need here at home. All of this comes down to the relationship one has in Christ, the obedience to his WAY and the rock you stand on. #BardsFM_Morning #TheRockOfFaith #Peacemakers Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Are written prayers biblical or just empty tradition? If you've ever felt like praying someone else's words isn't "sincere" or questioned whether liturgical prayers belong in the Christian life, this episode will challenge your assumptions and open up a rich tradition of faith. Did Jesus forbid scripted prayers in Matthew 6:6–7? Many Christians assume prayer must always be spontaneous. But throughout both Jewish and early Christian worship, written prayers were a normal part of community life.In this episode, we look at the history of liturgical prayer and why Acts 2:42 says the early believers devoted themselves to “the prayers.” We'll also talk about how written prayers can strengthen—not replace—your personal conversations with God. We will also explore the beauty and biblical foundation of liturgical prayers, from the Psalms (which are themselves written prayers) to the Book of Common Prayer and prayers written by early church fathers like Polycarp. Many American evangelicals dismiss written prayers as "ritualistic" or empty tradition, but Scripture shows us that God gave us the Psalms to pray, Jesus gave us the Lord's Prayer to pray, and faithful Christians throughout history have used written prayers to train themselves in adoration, confession, and thanksgiving—not just requests. I also share a few favorite historic prayer resources and simple ways to turn Scripture into your own prayers.Shop Prayer Resources⦿ Every Woman a Theologian Shop: https://phyliciamasonheimer.com/shop Our Spring Shop is live and filled with new prayer-focused resources including the Praying the Psalms Scripture Guide and Not-So-Quiet Time: Psalms Volume 1, a multisensory guide that you can use alone or as a family discipleship tool.Watch the full Verity Podcast Prayer Series: https://www.youtube.com/@veritypodcastSubscribe to Verity Podcast: https://apple.co/veritypodcastVerity Podcast is an Every Woman a Theologian company.

In Episode 437, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger explore Kings Island in Suffield, Connecticut. The island was once home to DeWitt Terry, A Seventh Day Adventist elder who believed the second coming of Christ, and thus the end of times was going to occur November 5, 1873 (spoilers: he was wrong). Over 100 people once gathered on this island to await the end.

As black rain falls from the smoke-choked skies of Tehran, the US and Israel continue their war against the Islamic Republic of Iran. From the start, Trump officials have seemed only to disagree on both the murky rationale and the objectives of their mission. Meanwhile, the Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been flooded with reports of commanding officers rallying their troops with apocalyptic pep talks in which Trump has been anointed by Jesus to kick-off Armageddon. This should come as no surprise, given that Sec of Def Pete Hegseth, has been holding Christian Nationalist prayer and worship services in the Pentagon since last May. Beyond the obviousness of this religious politics, Matthew looks at how Canadian PM, Mark Carney, supports Trump, and this war, while pretending not to, using deceptive language tricks that borrow from religion to blur the line between strength and values, power and principle. But, hey, if you want to distract yourself from all this, Polymarket is a wonderful place to bet on who's going to be bombed next. Derek breaks down how prediction markets have become a massively lucrative Rorschach-portrait of our times.

This week, we’re joined by beloved television host, actress, songwriter, and author Kathie Lee Gifford. Kathie Lee shares her deeply personal faith journey, emphasizing that she is not a “churchy person” but a “relationship person.” She advocates for understanding the Scriptures deeply, going beyond surface-level readings, and ultimately seeking to bring Jews and Christians together in the love story of God. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Dr. Julia Garcia, also known as Dr. J., who joins us to dismantle the myth that hope is an elusive personality trait. Drawing from years of clinical practice and her own raw, lived experience—including overcoming addiction, failed businesses, and seasons of deep uncertainty—Dr. J offers a powerful, practical pathway back to hope, even when the darkness feels permanent.

Your heart was in the right place. You walked with Me and were faithful to the little things, faithful to proclaim Me.’” - Kathie Lee Gifford “I would never take a role that required anything that dishonored the Lord. The Lord gives us a conscience for a reason.” - Kathie Lee Gifford “I follow Him, and I’m going to use every opportunity that comes my way to proclaim Him, because people are hurting. People are broken. People are desperate. People are hungry, not just for food. They’re hungry for life itself. They’re hungry for the truth. The only thing that has been constant in my life that never changes is my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.” - Kathie Lee Gifford “Our life should be a prayer constantly.” - Kathie Lee Gifford “I think religion puts us in chains, and Jesus came to get us out of the chains. It’s all about relationship, not religion, and I think we’ve really lost touch with that in Western Christianity.” - Kathie Lee Gifford “I’ve always had to go back to different habits at different times to make sure that I don’t associate how I feel with who I am.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “Hope is not a personality trait. People can feel like they need to have a huge amount of hope. It just takes that mustard seed—a tiny, tiny, tiny, little piece of hope is enough to carry you through.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “Habits of hope are an emotional framework to help us with those perspective shifts so we can interrupt harmful thought patterns.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “We’re going to have to get a lot stronger in our ability to emotionally risk so that we can deepen our relationships, not just with other people, but in our faith and with ourselves.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “We can reshape our thought patterns by constantly interrupting them and building these little tiny practices of hope, these emotional practices.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “The more we learn language around identifying what support would look like or feel like, the more we can get in the emotional habit of receiving that support. But it starts with us identifying what it is, who it is, and what we need from those people—our support pillars—so that we can receive hope.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “Being honest has helped me heal because you can’t have hope without honesty.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “Keep coming back to that place that aligns you with God’s call on your life. Even if the external things around you don’t make sense and it feels chaotic inside, just keep coming back, keep aligning back to the voice that you know is real and true.” - Dr. Julia Garcia “If we can just take a moment to receive the truth that we are not alone, that we are enough, then that is a building place for us to help navigate out of that feeling of feeling stuck or overwhelmed. It’s to replace these feelings with truth, with identity statements, reminding us who we are. We are not alone and we are made perfect in His image.” - Dr. Julia Garcia ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

When you are busy in ministry, it's easy to get distracted and busy. We each need to set our hearts on what really matters. Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth helps you focus on Jesus over ministry.
God deserves to be honored through sincere obedience, not empty or half-hearted actions. Israel was dishonoring Him by deliberately offering less than their best and by treating obedience as a burden, choosing convenience over faithfulness. This challenges us to examine whether our own actions reflect the same attitude. While we are no longer under the old covenant of animal sacrifices, we are called to follow Jesus under a new covenant. Loving God is demonstrated through obedience to His commands, which are not meant to be burdensome. Through faith and faithful living, we show true love for God and honor His name. __________ Malachi 1:11-14 NIV, 1 John 5:2-4 NIV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________
What if the key to overcoming condemnation isn't arguing better — but listening better?In this episode, John explores Jesus' surprising instruction in Luke 8:18: “Consider carefully how you listen.” Through the parable of the sower, Jesus explains that the condition of our hearts determines whether the words we hear bring growth or simply bounce off.John shares a recent moment when he caught himself listening critically instead of humbly — and how a simple shift changed everything.You'll learn:- why we often listen in order to judge- the three unhealthy ways we listen- what Jesus means by a “good and noble heart”- how humble listening opens the door to growth- why listening well makes condemnation harderWhen we begin to listen with humility — asking what God might want to show us — conversations change. And so do we.Because there is now no condemnation.

Catholic devotion to Divine Mercy is bearing wonderful fruit in the Church today, but it is also susceptible to being “hijacked,” diverted from its intended purpose. There's a popular perception that goes something like this, “God is so merciful that very few, if any, will be lost.” This is actually a distortion of the true meaning of mercy because it engenders an attitude of presumption and indifference that seriously undermines the Christian life. This video proposes an antidote to this false perception: true knowledge of what Jesus revealed to St. Faustina, not only about his great mercy, but also the necessity to respond to the offer of mercy with faith, repentance, and obedience in order for it to have its proper effect.

Friends of the Rosary,In the verse before the Gospel, St. John reminds us of two fundamental truths:"Your words, Lord, are Spirit and life;You have the words of everlasting life."Meanwhile, in the main reading (Matthew 5:17-19), Christ the Lord, through the disciples, is telling us:"Whoever breaks one of the least of these commandmentsand teaches others to do sowill be called least in the Kingdom of heaven.But whoever obeys and teaches these commandmentswill be called the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven."Being a faithful servant of Jesus means not only following his words but also cultivating our apostolic mission to spread the eternal truth. We continue praying our Holy Rosary from Austin, Texas.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!
