Podcasts about Jethro

Episode #174 of The Shallow End is anything but shallow!  Jethro has the story of a Florida Man who robbed a gas station – but proved to be the single kindest man never to do so. So how did the cops have time to show up and catch him in the act? Well, it's all about being polite, isn't it! Then Lindsay goes down under (both geographically and in gastro-intestinal fashion) with the story of a woman who served a very "special lunch" to four guests. What happened? Hint: You may want to skip the mushrooms next time you're invited to dinner – and go straight to the dessert! Enjoy this week's brand new episode! Learn more about your ad choices.

Raising the next generation is not a top-down project. It lives or dies in the middle. From Acts 18, Pastor Adam shows how Aquila and Priscilla quietly took Apollos aside and turned raw zeal into sharp effectiveness. Along the way: Nokia vs. Toyota culture, Jethro's counsel to Moses (Exodus 18), the tragedy of Judges 2, Titus 1 order, and a USS Wisconsin illustration on “recommissioning” veterans to train the new crew. This sermon calls gifted Apolloses to be teachable and seasoned Aquilas/Priscillas to re-engage.Scriptures: Acts 18:24–28; Exodus 18:17–22; Acts 6:3–4; Romans 16:3–4; Judges 2:7–10; Titus 1:5; 1 Kings 12:8; Proverbs 20:5.00:00 Opening humor and setup01:24 Acts 18 and the Nokia vs. Toyota lesson05:16 Aquila & Priscilla take Apollos aside09:12 The role of middle management in ministry13:01 Obstacles: pride in Apollos, comfort in elders20:40 Judges 2 and the generational gap25:02 Teachability and drawing out counsel31:10 Wise correction and practical involvement34:46 USS Wisconsin illustration: recommission the veterans37:07 Testimony of Gus Carrillo & closing callShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

It's away from colors and more toward . . . Buffalo? Like New York? Or like the animal? Who can tell. Wait, Matt and Jethro can! And so can Kay Berry. Let's go!

Jethro's BBQ Reaction Monday.

Jethro saw what Moses couldn't: he was doing good work, but not in a way that could last. Jethro's approach with Moses models good and godly counsel. Through this passage, we are reminded that God often uses wise voices around us to show what we can't see ourselves, and that true leadership means staying rooted in prayer, sharing the burden with others, and building for sustainability.

Step right up, oddity enthusiasts! In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unpack a carnival curiosity, an uncontacted tribe, and maybe—just maybe—aliens. First, meet Schlitzie the Pinhead, the sideshow legend whose life was stranger and more poignant than the posters ever revealed. Then, we sail (metaphorically, of course) to the forbidden shores of North Sentinel Island, home to the Sentinelese people—an isolated tribe whose fierce independence has baffled explorers for centuries. And finally, we peer into the cosmos to ask: are those weird signals really signs of extraterrestrial life, or just our toaster acting up again? Equal parts bizarre, fascinating, and hilarious, this episode will have you marveling at humanity, mystery, and the universe itself.

n this episode, Kat and Jethro sprint headfirst into the shadows—twice. First, they investigate the chilling legend of the Black Flash of Provincetown—a mysterious, caped figure that terrorized the streets of Cape Cod in the late 1930s. Was it a prankster in a leotard or a supernatural harbinger of doom? Why did it smell like ammonia and make jumps that defied Newtonian physics? And most importantly: who keeps giving cryptids Olympic-level track abilities? Then, they shift into far darker territory with the haunting story of Lonnie Franklin Jr., better known as the Grim Sleeper. For decades, he preyed upon the vulnerable and voiceless in Los Angeles, slipping under the radar due to chilling indifference and systemic failure. How did one of the most prolific serial killers in U.S. history go unnoticed for so long—and what finally led to his capture? From shadowy specters to real-life horrors, this episode explores the thin, fraying line between folklore and fear, myth and monster. Listen now—if you dare.

Ever feel like you're carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders? Moses did too.

Iowa State Cruises and Iowa's in a Loop: Sean and Lucas on a Jethro's BBQ Reaction Monday

Study Passage: Exodus 3:1-9Now Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, and he led his flock to the west side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed. 3 And Moses said, “I will turn aside to see this great sight, why the bush is not burned.” 4 When the Lord saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.” 5 Then he said, “Do not come near; take your sandals off your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.” 6 And he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.7 Then the Lord said, “I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters. I know their sufferings, 8 and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. 9 And now, behold, the cry of the people of Israel has come to me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.

For Matt and Jethro it's time to wander off to another destination. And what do they know? It's all Latin to them, right? So good luck and enjoy!

In his daily post, Sabbath Moment, our guest today, Terry Hershey, addresses the vital need for art and music in our lives as salves in dealing with trying political times. He quotes the band Jethro when they write… “When people in power try to remove our humanity and dignity, art and music provide a Raison D'etre.” Art and music are certainly far more than an escape…  And so with this, I chat with author, teacher, and landscape architect, Terry Hershey.

Mat and Jethro are building up quite a following! But that's not all the building that's happening this week as they leave a delicious order and head to parts unknown!And check out Cliff Hughes' work!

As the nation of Israel makes their way through the wilderness, they come across some trouble. Lack of food and water make the people a bit testy. On top of that, they have a new enemy that has decided to attack them at their weakest spot. And in each instance, God continually provides for them. On this episode of Bible Backdrop, find out some of the details regarding the Israelites journey to Mount Sinai. What was important about the springs of Marah? What were the manna and quail like? Why did the Amalekites attack the Israelites? If you are enjoying Bible Backdrop, please tell a friend and have them subscribe. You can also get in touch with the show with the e-mail in the episode. Thanks for listening!

When you feel stuck in life or faith, God often uses the wisdom of others to help you move forward.

PART 1 On this episode of Native ChocTalk, my cousin, Cheryl and I took a road trip into the heart of Choctaw country to explore the fascinating and little-known history of Tamaha, Oklahoma - a town with stories that are anything but small. As we meandered along banks of the Arkansas River, we met a local gentleman walking his dogs. That chance encounter led me to Tonia Brannan - an unofficial town historian with a deep connection to the land, the stories, and the Choctaw history embedded in the soil who shares it all with me today. From early ferry landings of the Choctaw trading points following Removal, to a Civil War steamboat raid led by Confederate Cherokee General Stand Watie, to the very first prisoner of the Tamaha jail, and even the scrappy boxing legend Wild Wilson Dunn, a Choctaw man who claimed to be Osage and once fought Jethro's dad from the show, The Beverly Hillbillies - Tamaha has seen it all!

It's a true crime story that starts strange and somehow gets stranger. Meanwhile, Kat digs up the mystery of Attenborough's long-beaked echidna—a creature that sounds like it was designed by a committee of science fiction writers and hallucinating zoologists. It has a beak. It lays eggs. It's covered in spines. And it hasn't been officially spotted since 1961. Is it extinct, mythical… or just extremely introverted? It's true crime meets cryptid chic in a brand new episode of The Box of Oddities—where the inexplicable isn't a bug, it's the main feature.

→ Israeli Druze former special forces officer Mansur Ashkar reveals the shocking truth about what's happening to his people in Syria right now - and why the world is staying silent. In 1948, two Arab communities made opposite choices that changed everything. One chose the "Blood Covenant" with Israel. The other chose eternal war. Today, one community thrives.

She posed for over 400 photos, staged her own haunting re-creations of operas, and spent her final years obsessively preparing to be seen dead just right.
