Cory Morgan (Pastor of Modern Worship & Young Adults), "At All Costs", Modern Worship Praise Team (11:15Service).       17.  On one of those days, as he was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with him to heal.  18.  And behold, some men were bringing on a bed a man who was paralyzed, and they were seeking to bring him in and lay him before Jesus,  19.  but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus.  20.  And when he saw their faith, he said, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”  21.  And the scribes and the Pharisees began to question, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”  22.  When Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answered them, “Why do you question in your hearts? 23.  Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, ‘Rise and walk'?   24.  But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the man who was paralyzed—“I say to you, rise, pick up your bed and go home.”  25.  And immediately he rose up before them and picked up what he had been lying on and went home, glorifying God.  26.  And amazement seized them all, and they glorified God and were filled with awe, saying, “We have seen extraordinary things today.”       (Luke 6:17-26 ESV)To view the video version of the Modern Worship Service please click on the following link:   https://youtu.be/lHmBTWCKvRQ(The audio version of the Modern Worship Service will most likely have to be stopped from playing or else it will be heard as well as the audio track of the video version.)

Kristen Shuler, President of East-West Ministries International, shares how God shaped her calling to take the gospel to the world's least reached people. Raised in a Christian home with a deep commitment to discipleship and missions, Kristen came to faith at a young age and learned early that obedience to God often comes before visible fruit. Those formative experiences, including years of frontline ministry overseas, continue to anchor her leadership today. At East-West, Kristen helps lead a global network focused on multiplying disciples and churches in spiritually dark places where access to the gospel is limited or nonexistent. Rather than relying on outside control, East-West prioritizes local leadership, obedience-based discipleship, and collaboration across ministries, trusting God to grow lasting movements of faith. Kristen speaks honestly about the cost of faithfulness, the patience required when fruit is slow to appear, and the freedom that comes from surrendering outcomes to God. This conversation offers a hopeful vision for wise stewardship, faithful generosity, and finding your place in God's mission. Listen to explore how obedience, prayer, and collaboration shape lasting Kingdom impact. Major Topics Include: Obedience over visible ministry results Multiplication as a core discipleship DNA Reaching unengaged and unreached people groups Local ownership of the missionary task Obedience based versus knowledge based discipleship Finding joy beyond performance driven ministry Collaboration reshaping global missions strategy Prayer as essential spiritual labor Diverse pathways for Great Commission participation QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The ministry is not about seeing fruit. The ministry is about obedience.” “Even if I didn't see the fruit, I could trust that He was at work.” “The Lord uses every step of obedience and every seed that's planted as part of His ultimate plan.” “Discipleship is not just about gaining knowledge, but about being obedient to the Word of God.” “If I tell somebody what to do, that will fail every time. But when God's Word and the Spirit lead, that's where transformation happens.” “The Great Commission is a God-given mandate for every follower of Jesus to find their place in.” “It's not about choosing what feels comfortable, but responding in obedience to what God is asking.” “The people are waiting to hear. They simply need a laborer to come to them.” “Not a single one of us can accomplish the Great Commission on our own.” “That humility we're seeing across missions organizations is something only the Spirit can do.” “We want to learn, grow, and come with open hands to see what the Lord might do through unity.” “If I'm not abiding in Jesus, I have very little to offer anyone else.” “Do we want to be known for our strategies, or do we want to be known for loving Jesus?” “If we're not marked by our love for Jesus, our strategies will be ineffective.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW East-West Ministries International International Missions Board Coalition of the Willing (see our interviews with founding members Jared Nelms and Scott Cheatham) The Treasure Principle (see our interview with author Randy Alcorn) BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Matthew 28:19–20 | Make Disciples of All Nations Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Acts 1:8 | Witness to the Ends But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. Galatians 5:25 | Keeping in Step with the Spirit If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. Matthew 9:37–38 | The Harvest Is Plentiful Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” John 15:4–5 | Abide and Bear Fruit Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. John 17:20–23 | Unity That the World May Believe Matthew 6:21 | Treasure and the Heart For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Venimos con una nueva entrega dedicada a Fernando Álvarez de Toledo y Pimentel, más conocido como el Gran Duque de Alba. En esta tercera entrega, seguimos su peripecia vital por varios conflictos en los que se batió el cobre, como las primeras Guerras de Religión que se sucedieron en Europa durante el siglo XVI. Nos detendremos, por tanto, en episodios como la Batalla de Mühlberg, en 1547. Será, como siempre, de la mano del juglar más apreciado por los veteranos de los Tercios: Bikendi Goiko-uria. La segunda propuesta es un audio compartido entre Por los Dioses y Calamares a la Romana. Sergio Alejo y Ángel Portillo vuelven a reunirse para hablar de la parte histórica de la vida de Jesús de Nazaret. En esta ocasión, hablarán de la región que lo vio crecer, Judea, en tiempo de las águilas romanas, claro está. Finalmente, en la sección que recuperamos de anteriores temporadas, recordamos un audio de Historias Rarunas con un condecorado soldado de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Nada raro, si no fuera porque hablamos del Sargento Stubby, un perro que participó en nada menos que 17 batallas de la Gran Guerra. Todo en boca de Bikendi Goiko-uria.

Sermons Archive RSS John 4:43-54 Now after the two days He departed from there and went to Galilee. 44 For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country. 45 So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also had gone to the feast.46 So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe.”49 The nobleman said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, “Your son lives!”52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” And he himself believed, and his whole household.54 This again is the second sign Jesus did when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.John 20:31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.John 6:41,42 The Jews complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” And they said, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, “I have come down from heaven”? John 7:5 For even His brothers did not believe in HimJohn 6:66 From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. John 12:3: But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in HimJohn 1:11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. Matthew 15:28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.Matthew 8:10 & 13 When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!13: Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” John 20:30-31 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.James 1:5-8 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.Luke 18:1 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart. Sermon Discussion Questions:Why did Jesus decide to go to Galilee rather than remain in Judea?How do we see the faith of the Nobleman Progress throughout this section?What is Jesus' initial response to the man's requestAccording to what was discussed, in which two ways are we supposed to pray? “Despised Samaritans turn to Christ, while many of the historic covenant community either actively oppose Him, or cannot progress beyond a fascination for miracles” — Hendrickson

Pero su religión era superficial, y abandonó la fe.Después de la muerte de su primer marido, con quien se había casado a los trece años, se casó con su tío, con quien tuvo dos hijos. Nuevamente viuda, se casó con un rey de Anatolia para ocultar la relación incestuosa con su hermano. El casamiento se terminó pronto, y ella pasó a ser la amante del emperador romano Vespasiano y de su hijo Tito, el comandante de la invasión de Jerusalén, en el año 70 d. C. Murió en Roma, después de la invasión.Cuando Pablo, como prisionero, fue llamado a Cesarea por el procurador Festo para presentar su defensa ante el hermano de Berenice, Agripa II, ella tuvo la oportunidad de escucharlo hablar de Cristo, pero ignoró al apóstol.Según los historiadores, Drusila, la menor, era una bella mujer. Su hermano, Agripa II, la casó con un rey asirio. Con menos de un año de casada, abandonó a su marido para quedarse ilegalmente con Félix, el gobernador romano de Judea, con quien tuvo un hijo.Drusila estaba con su marido cuando Pablo habló de su fe al procurador Félix, pero rechazó el mensaje del apóstol. A los cuarenta años, junto con su hijo fueron enterrados por las lavas del Vesubio.Berenice y Drusila nacieron en cunas contaminadas por vicios, por la lucha por el poder y por la lujuria. Y, aunque conocieron el evangelio, lo rechazaron por causa de una vida pecaminosa, la cual deterioró su carácter y definió su ruina.No hay excusa para llevar toda una vida de pecados, aunque ese haya sido el modelo del ambiente familiar.En Cristo, podemos ser vencedores y cambiar nuestro destino. Nadie se perderá por no haber tenido la oportunidad de la salvación. Solo aquellos que rechazaron a Cristo no estarán en el cielo.¿Cómo está tu vida ante Dios? Por casualidad, ¿has rechazado la invitación divina a una vida elevada en su compañía? Quizá esta sea tu última invitación para estar junto a él. No esperes a mañana.

Jesus Heals Many 17 He went down with them and stood on a level place with a large crowd of his disciples and a large number of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, as well as from the coastal area of Tyre and Sidon. These people came to listen to him and to be healed of their diseases. 18 Those who were troubled by unclean spirits were also cured. 19 The whole crowd kept trying to touch him, because power was going out from him and healing them all. Blessings and Woes 20 He lifted up his eyes to his disciples and said: Blessed are you who are poor,     because yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are you who hunger now,     because you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now,     because you will laugh. 22 Blessed are you whenever people hate you, and whenever they exclude and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man. 23 “Rejoice in that day and leap for joy because of this: Your reward is great in heaven! The fact is, their fathers constantly did the same things to the prophets.” 24 But woe to you who are rich,     because you are receiving your comfort now. 25 Woe to you who are well fed now,     because you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now,     because you will be mourning and weeping. 26 Woe to you when all people speak well of you,     because that is how their fathers constantly treated the         false prophets. Love Your Enemies 27 “But I say to you who are listening: Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. 28 Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, offer the other too. If someone takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes away your things, do not demand them back. 31 “Treat others just as you would want them to treat you. 32 If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? To be sure, even the sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even the sinners do the same thing. 34 If you lend to those from whom you expect to be repaid, what credit is that to you? Even the sinners lend to sinners in order to be paid back in full. 35 Instead, love your enemies, do good and lend, expecting nothing in return. Your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the unthankful and the evil. 36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. #top .hr.hr-invisible.av-aocsdx-89cb4ca21532423cf697fc393b6fcee0{ height:10px; } The Holy Bible, Evangelical Heritage Version®, EHV®, © 2019 Wartburg Project, Inc.

Before theology… before tradition… before church doctrine — who was Jesus in his actual historical world?In this episode, we strip everything down to the environmental, tribal, political, and social realities of 1st-century Judea under Rome. From John the Baptist to Roman crucifixion practices, we examine what history tells us about how and why Jesus was executed — including the brutal reality of public crucifixion as a method of humiliation and state power.And the bigger question: Why did His movement grow after Rome tried to erase Him?This isn't Sunday school. This is historical context.

What We Have Even Now Sexagesima Sunday 10 For just as rain and snow fall from heaven and do not return there without saturating the earth and making it germinate and sprout, and providing seed to sow and food to eat, 11 so my word that comes from my mouth will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it to do." 12 You will indeed go out with joy and be peacefully guided; the mountains and the hills will break into singing before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thornbush, a cypress will come up, and instead of the brier, a myrtle will come up; this will stand as a monument for the LORD, an everlasting sign that will not be destroyed. Isaiah 55:10–13 [CSB] I will read the last part first…the result, the consequence…of the first part: 12 You will indeed go out with joy and be peacefully guided; the mountains and the hills will break into singing before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thornbush, a cypress will come up, and instead of the brier, a myrtle will come up; this will stand as a monument for the LORD, an everlasting sign that will not be destroyed. Isaiah 55:10–13 [CSB] This is even now… No, it is…as we DO have a little of it… We do…and it is too bad when we don't think so…when we deny it…when we listen to any voice that says it isn't so…when things blind us so that we cannot see it. Nonetheless is it true. Now and forever. Some now and all forever. It began in a manger… and was established in this odd and never thought of place… But then this lonely shoot began to bud, then flower as if on just a bit of bare rock… and it was… it was called Calvary… …then it began to multiply…first right there in Jerusalem, then Judea and Samaria…and then into the uttermost parts of the earth… This is also the beginning…the start, where it begins for us… …from blood and in water…and then in our pilgrimage…here… …through the valley of the shadow of death…until our Lord and Savior makes death dead--the last enemy to be removed forever. Removed even from our lifeless bodies, where the seed is left to wait. Death is defeated, but …not completely taken away…yet. Now is the time of Grace. This is the time of the Church militant…that is, the time we still have to fight sin, death and the devil…our flesh, the world, and the kingdom of darkness…. But as they flee before the Lord who leads the way through… We are not fighting for victory. That has already been won by Jesus. We are clearing the ground…and the air…on our way home. For now we see from afar. We hear the distant song… Faith in Him whom we follow knows this to be true. His Words enable to see in this dim place…to hear amongst the cruel noises…the hopeless cries… And then…all of a sudden…along the way we see a crack in the clouds…and there are those mountains that will soon sing and shake to participate in bringing in the new order of a new creation. Or it may be a special day…when all is quiet…and suddenly the sweet air brings the accompaniment to that high and exulted singing…the trees remind of us of what is to come. That singing is not as it will be…this clapping is not but a slight rustle… But it is all in hope…a hope because we have been given this hope…as creation knows who has come and gives it to mankind… So creation waits… Even if here and there…and only in practice a little…and to remind us of these, His Words…giving us a glimpse…even if ever so slight… You see, I am showing you the results first, because we need to see what reality looks like--what it should have been…what it should be like…what it is to sound like…and what it will be like again. It is so now…by Word of Law--God's law, but it has to be yet enacted fully. It has been declared to be so, but many yet have to believe the Words. They need to hear, know and believe before they can have the result for themselves. And so, as we pray in the prayer that our Lord has taught us: THY KINGDOM COME… Yes…God's Kingdom comes of its own self, but… We pray in this petition that the Kingdom come among us also. And it has come…and it has come here. You are here because of this onward march…this invasion of and in your life by God Himself….as He widens…and lengthens…the restoration of all things… One person at a time. Family by Family. Until there is nowhere left that is enemy territory…until there is no one left to be captured and turned back from the enemy to our Lord. This Old Testament prophet's text is about the coming of this Kingdom of God in, by and through Christ… And it has come…and is still here…at work…moving…into the kingdom of the devil…an invasion force…light into the dark…color into grayness… green into the dry brown…gladness and singing into the groans of pain and suffering…fruitfulness to the barren…life into death… I show you this first because we have to be reminded of what it actually could be like, lest we believe that what we have seen--the darkness…bitterness…horror…pain…the loss…betrayal…and death…lest we accept this as the only reality… lest we surrender again to our enemy. I tell you this because we need to be given hope…expectation…longing…in that which we do actually have now… From what we have already been given…and have heard…and yet…forget…doubt…and let go of… No! The Kingdom of God is among us. Here and now. IN this very place…in your very lives. Today. Why can I say this? Because He--our Lord says so. And what He says…well…listen to what He says about what HE SAYS: 10 For just as rain and snow fall from heaven and do not return there without saturating the earth and making it germinate and sprout, and providing seed to sow and food to eat, 11 so my word that comes from my mouth will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it to do." What God says, happens. What He declares is SO. What He promises is given. This is death to life, because of Grace from His Mercy that Forgives all sin---that sin that caused death and the wilting of creation. This has been defeated and with the resurrection of Jesus is being pushed right out into the outer darkness forever. Never to return. Heaven on a new earth eternal. And eternally to be lived by us and all creation, now renewed. This is the result and the reason--the purpose God sent out His STRONG WORD. It will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. Because the Strong Word is Jesus. And He has done it. His is the Name, that was made for the Lord… And that everlasting sign is the sign of Jonah and the sign of the cross--our sign now too--our eternal mark---His Mark on us…the mark of the Crucified One who is alive…making us alive…making us alive with Him forever. Amen.

MK Ohad Tal joins Eve Harow to discuss the latest developments and challenges keeping him busy at the Knesset. The biggest success is changing the status of major land issues in Judea and Samaria and strengthening the Israeli presence in our Biblical heartland. Then there's the conscription of the ultra Orthodox and a major dairy reform with the constant background of security concerns. Listen in to Israel on the move. Despite all predictions we are rocking it.

APN, the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature, has been planting millions of trees in the memory of terrorists across Judea and Samaria, the Jordan Valley and Jerusalem. According to Im Tirtzu, a grassroots Zionist NGO, they have planted over 3.5 million trees, many on Israeli-controlled land near Jewish settlements, with the aim of “suffocating” them in a land grab. Matan Asher, the spokesman of Im Tirtzu told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that Israeli authorities should uproot the groves planted on Israeli-land.(photo: APN) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Acts 26 So Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense: 2 “I consider myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am going to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews, 3 especially because you are familiar with all the customs and controversies of the Jews. Therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently. 4 “My manner of life from my youth, spent from the beginning among my own nation and in Jerusalem, is known by all the Jews. 5 They have known for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that according to the strictest party of our religion I have lived as a Pharisee. 6 And now I stand here on trial because of my hope in the promise made by God to our fathers, 7 to which our twelve tribes hope to attain, as they earnestly worship night and day. And for this hope I am accused by Jews, O king! 8 Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead? 9 “I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things in opposing the name of Jesus of Nazareth. 10 And I did so in Jerusalem. I not only locked up many of the saints in prison after receiving authority from the chief priests, but when they were put to death I cast my vote against them. 11 And I punished them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme, and in raging fury against them I persecuted them even to foreign cities. 12 “In this connection I journeyed to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests. 13 At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, that shone around me and those who journeyed with me. 14 And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.' 15 And I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?' And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. 16 But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you, 17 delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you 18 to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.' 19 “Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, 20 but declared first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in keeping with their repentance. 21 For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me. 22 To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass: 23 that the Christ must suffer and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to our people and to the Gentiles.” 24 And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.” 25 But Paul said, “I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I am speaking true and rational words. 26 For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak boldly. For I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this has not been done in a corner. 27 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe.” 28 And Agrippa said to Paul, “In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?” 29 And Paul said, “Whether short or long, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am—except for these chains.” 30 Then the king rose, and the governor and Bernice and those who were sitting with them. 31 And when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, “This man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment.” 32 And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been set free if he had not appealed to Caesar.”

This week at Citizen Church, Pastor Dustin reminded us that the heart of God has always been global. From the beginning, God's plan has been to bless all nations, and Jesus calls His Church to take the gospel beyond ourselves and into every city, every nation, and every heart. Scripture makes it clear: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations…” (Matthew 28:19). Global missions matter because God's purpose has always extended to the whole world. Genesis 12:3 declares that all peoples on earth will be blessed through God's promise, and Revelation 7:9 gives us a picture of the future—a great multitude from every nation, tribe, people, and language standing before the throne of God. Jesus also commanded both local and global witness, saying in Acts 1:8 that we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to be His witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. At Citizen Church, we believe we are called to live out this mission with a global mentality: to refresh the hurting, renew the broken, and redeem the lost. Jesus taught that the gospel is not only spoken but demonstrated through compassion and action (Matthew 25:35–36). We are reminded in 1 John 3:17–18 not to love with words alone, but with actions and in truth. And ultimately, Christ came to seek and to save the lost (Luke 19:10). As Romans 10:14–15 asks, how will people hear unless someone is sent? We may plant and water, but God brings the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6). Thank you for being part of a Christ-centered, Spirit-led, kingdom-building movement committed to the renewal of cities and nations through the love of Jesus. Help for Today. Hope for Eternity.

This teaching invites us into a radical reimagining of what it means to live the abundant life Jesus promises. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9:8, we discover that God's abundance isn't merely about receiving blessings—it's about becoming conduits of grace. The passage reveals a stunning truth: God makes all grace abound to us so that we might have sufficiency in all things at all times, enabling us to abound in every good work. This isn't the secular 'abundance mindset' of positive thinking; it's rooted in the character of a God who created everything, owns everything, and can multiply anything. The teaching explores Paul's appeal to the Corinthians regarding famine relief for believers in Judea, contrasting their hesitation with the Macedonians who gave generously despite extreme poverty. We're challenged to move beyond living in abundance to living from abundance—where our generosity becomes the proof of our trust in God's provision. The multiplication effect is breathtaking: when we give, we don't just meet material needs; we transform hearts, generate worship, inspire prayer, advance the gospel, and weave the fabric of shalom that endures forever. Whether it's two plantains in a refugee church or a wedding day sacrificed to help a struggling friend, every act of generosity participates in God's eternal work of bringing the broken world back together.

This Sunday, we continued our Church on Fire series by hearing Jesus redefine what real power looks like: not control, not comfort, not having all the answers—but receiving the Holy Spirit and becoming His witnesses. In Acts 1:6–12, the disciples ask about restoring their own kingdom, but Jesus redirects them toward a greater calling: a Spirit-empowered life that bears witness to His Kingdom in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. We were reminded that God doesn't always give us explanations—He gives us assignments. The power of the Holy Spirit isn't for self-preservation, but for transformation, sending us into everyday spaces to tell the truth about what we've seen and experienced in Jesus. As a church, we're being invited to stop waiting until we have it all together and step into our identity now as Spirit-filled witnesses—people who go with Jesus so others might be found.

That You May Believe, Part 2 John 1:19-34   John 20:30-31 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.   John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.   John 1:6-8 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him. 8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light. John 1:19 And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”   John 1:20-21 He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, “I am not the Christ.” 21 And they asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”   Malachi 4:5-6a “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 6 And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children…”   Luke 1:14-17 And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth, 15 for he will be great before the Lord. And he must not drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother’s womb. 16 And he will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God, 17 and he will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared.”   Deuteronomy 18:15 “The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your brothers—it is to him you shall listen—”   Deuteronomy 18:18 “I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. And I will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak to them all that I command him.” John 1:22 So they said to him, “Who are you? We need to give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”   John 1:23 He said, “I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah said.”   Isaiah 40:3-5 A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. 5 And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”   John 1:24-25 (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.) 25 They asked him, “Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”   John 1:26-28 John answered them, “I baptize with water, but among you stands one you do not know, 27 even he who comes after me, the strap of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie.” 28 These things took place in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.   Matthew 3:1-2 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”   Matthew 3:5-6 Then Jerusalem and all Judea and all the region about the Jordan were going out to him, 6 and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.   Jesus is the Lamb of God. John 1:29-31 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! 30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who ranks before me, because he was before me.' 31 I myself did not know him, but for this purpose I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel.” Isaiah 53:4-7 Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. 7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth.   Isaiah 53:11 Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities.   Jesus is the One who baptizes with the Holy Spirit. John 1:32-33 And John bore witness: “I saw the Spirit descend from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. 33 I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.' Matthew 3:16 And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him;   Luke 4:18-19 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, 19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”   Romans 6:3-4 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. Jesus is the chosen One of God. John 1:34 And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God.” Isaiah 42:1a Behold my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him;   Matthew 3:17 and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”   1 John 2:23 No one who denies the Son has the Father. Whoever confesses the Son has the Father also.   1 John 5:12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

The Spiritual Check Engine Light: Supernatural Warnings Before 70 ADRecognizing Divine Omen, Mercy, and the Pattern of JudgmentShow NotesHistory records the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD as a brutal military conquest, but the spiritual reality behind the scenes was far more profound. In this episode of Coffee with Conrad, we explore the supernatural phenomena that served as a "final booming alarm clock" for a generation that had rejected the living Word standing right in front of them.Conrad digs into the accounts of historians Flavius Josephus and Tacitus—two men from opposite worlds who corroborated the same impossible events. From swords of light in the heavens to biological impossibilities in the temple courts, we examine the major signs sent by God to warn His people before the Roman legions ever marched on Judea.Key Topics Discussed:The Sword in the Sky: A stationary, sword-shaped omen that hung over Jerusalem for an entire year, signaling that the sword of the Lord was drawn.Armies in the Clouds: A mass sighting of celestial chariots and troops maneuvering through the sky, pre-enacting the coming siege.The Departing Glory: Why the massive Corinthian bronze temple doors swung open at midnight "of their own accord" , and the chilling voice heard at Pentecost saying, "Let us remove hence".+2The Impossible Lamb: The shocking biological sign of a heifer giving birth to a lamb in the temple court, symbolizing that the final sacrifice had already been made.The 40-Year Probation: The significance of the miracles associated with the Day of Atonement stopping for 40 years—the exact span from the crucifixion in 30 AD to the destruction in 70 AD.Biblical Foundations:Amos 3:7: "Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets".Matthew 24:2: Jesus' prophecy that not one stone of the temple would be left upon another.John 1:29: Identifying the true Lamb of God.Proverbs 29:1: "He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy".Closing Thought: The tragedy of 70 AD wasn't a lack of signs, but a lack of submission to the Spirit. Are we "bulldozing ahead" with our own theology today, or are we sitting still long enough to hear what the Spirit is saying to our generation?.Hashtags: #BibleProphecy #70AD #Supernatural #ChurchHistory #Josephus #SignsAndWonders #BiblicalJesus #SpiritualWarfare #EndTimes #KJV #ConradRocks

While Abbas says the vote will include Arabs from Gaza, Judea and Samaria, and those living abroad, skepticism remains high. Past election promises have never materialized, and recent polls show Hamas support surging in Judea and Samaria while Fatah continues to lose ground. Meanwhile, the U.S. approved more than $16 billion in arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia. At the same time, antisemitism explodes closer to home—from a disturbing incident aboard an American Airlines flight to the exponential rise of antisemitic hate in the first month of Mamdani's term as mayor in New York City.
