How would the black church's public witness guide Christians through today's polarization, culture-war dynamics, and ideological captivity? Drawing from Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around, Justin Giboney joins Mark Labberton to reflect on Christian credibility (and lack thereof), the black church's public witness, and the deep forces shaping American polarization. Reflecting on the legacy of the twentieth-century civil rights generation, Giboney describes how the black church's fusion of orthodoxy and social action offers a model for healing division, resisting ideological captivity, and embodying what he calls "moral imagination." Citing the formative influences of his grandmother Willie Faye, the example of Mahalia Jackson, and the ongoing challenge of navigating truth, justice, family, unity, and political engagement in a fractured moment, Giboney explores discipleship in an ideological age, the cost of a credible public witness, and the hope of a church capable of transcending partisan allegiance to seek the good of neighbor and the glory of God. Episode Highlights "One thing that I saw in the civil rights generation is they were able to have a bigger perspective, even in songs like 'Keep Your Eyes on the Prize.'" "Love is self-sacrifice. It's being willing to at my own expense in some instances give up what I have to others." "This was a deliberate decision that they made to say, we're not gonna choose one of these two sides that these groups are creating for us." "Within the public square, credibility is currency." "I want all Christians to take that as their own and build on that."

He is also the co-founder and president of the AND Campaign, a Christian civic organization focused on asserting the compassion and conviction of the gospel in the public square. He has served as an attorney, political organizer, and civic leader, and he regularly speaks and writes on the intersection of Christianity and politics. Show Notes Justin Giboney describes being an attorney, political strategist, and ordained minister, and cofounder of the AND Campaign He explains the AND Campaign's mission to raise civic literacy among Christians and resist purely partisan frameworks in favor of a biblical one "Social justice and moral order, love and truth, compassion and conviction" as a united Christian vision rather than opposing camps Lit City literacy initiative in Atlanta bringing churches across racial and partisan divides together for shared mission Ten-week programs for Christians preparing to run for office or engage politics constructively Naming and confronting polarization as a dialectical division that splits what should be held together Intro and summary to Giboney's book, Don't Let Nobody Turn You Around, framed as applying civil rights wisdom to the current culture-war moment Giboney's grandmother Willie Faye and Mahalia Jackson as representative figures of the civil rights generation's theological and moral framework Moral imagination defined as the capacity to see what ought to be, not merely what is: "the ability to see what will be based on God's promises" Songs like "Keep Your Eyes on the Prize" as examples of moral imagination sustaining courage and humility The necessity of Scripture's authority and why the black church's orthodoxy and orthopraxy shape public witness Giboney's critique of individualism and his insistence that love is fundamentally "self-sacrifice" rather than self-expression Historical correction: The black church neither mirrors conservative ideology nor progressive ideology; it deliberately resisted both. "If we go to the right, we lose our bodies… if we go to the left, we could lose our soul." The strategic theological posture of black church leaders Christian credible witness requires coherence, humility, and honesty—rather than partisan performance Credibility in public "is currency," requiring self-examination, confession, and honesty about ideological idols Civil Rights Movement disciplines: self-purification, preparation through prayer and fellowship, resisting bitterness before engaging action Parenting, resilience, and teaching his sons not to give disproportionate emotional energy to racist comments, while still confronting wrongdoing The role of community formation, honor, and integrated humanity within black church worship life Hopes for the church: rejecting secular assumptions about who can reconcile, cultivating humility across divisions AND Campaign's twenty-year vision: Christians uniting across party lines around shared commitments like racial justice, family, sanctity of life, and poverty Final exhortation: The black church's public witness is a gift and challenge to the entire American church, not just one community.

When life feels like it's burning out of control, remember—God can use even your fiery trials to refine your faith and reveal His glory.

Are you tired of the "seesaw life"—the constant ups and downs that leave you dizzy and discouraged? In this powerful message, Pastor Joseph Davis shows you how to stop running on empty and tap into the power of joy—the spiritual adrenaline that will interrupt your grieving, break weariness, and keep you on track to fulfill your God-given destiny. Joy is more than fleeting happiness; it's a profound, spiritual connection that is the key to activating your courage to grow. Main Points of the Message -- Resilience is Your Response to Tragedy: Growth happens when you choose to leave your comfort zone and show resilience. It's not just the ability to bounce back, but also the capacity to adapt and pivot after hardship. -- Get Off the Seesaw: Adulthood cannot sustain a life of constant ups and downs. To move forward, you must face your fears, hush the noise around you, and get in the race. -- Joy is the Remedy for Weariness: The Bible warns against being "weary in well doing" because weariness can cause you to retreat and settle for going backward. Joy, however, gives you the strength to manage trouble and get to your promise. -- Joy Intervenes in Grief: God's word to Joshua after the death of Moses was, "Get going." This illustrates that joy will interrupt your grieving and give you the courage to move even when you have to "cry and move at the same time." -- Keep Your Eyes on Jesus: Jesus endured the cross "for the joy set before him." Joy gives you the strength to put up with anything ("cross, shame, whatever") because it gives you the foresight of your exhilarating finish. -- Joy Enables Transformation: You can't successfully pursue sanctification, change, or transformation without joy. It gives you the power to "let go" of weights and parasitic sins, allowing you to celebrate your progress. -- Count It All Joy: Joy is activated when you learn how to count your troubles as an indicator that you are alive and, therefore, able to change. Scriptures for Further Study -- Matthew 14:22-33 (The story of Peter walking on water) -- Hebrews 12:1-3 (The cloud of witnesses and keeping eyes on Jesus) -- Galatians 6:9 ("Let us not be weary in well doing...") -- Joshua 1:1-9 (God's charge to Joshua after Moses' death) -- Numbers 13 and 14 (The 12 spies, Joshua and Caleb's faith) -- Psalms 51:12 (David asking God to restore the joy of his salvation) -- Nehemiah 8:10 ("The joy of the Lord is your strength.") -- Philippians 4:4 ("Rejoice in the Lord always...") -- James 1:2-4 ("Count it all joy...") +++++++ Pastors Joseph and Robbin Davis Follow Us https://www.facebook.com/truthgatherers/ Ways to Give Cash App: $truthgatherers www.easytithe.com/TGDC Text to Give - Text the amount to (850) 898-9848

When we encounter suffering, Peter calls us to lift our eyes to Christ—the one who keeps, strengthens, and restores his people. In this closing message from 1 Peter, we are reminded that humility, faith, and steadfast trust in God are how we endure hardship and resist the enemy. The Christian life, from start to finish, is simply this: keep your eyes on Jesus and stand firm in his grace.

Here's the world's biggest geography problem! If the End Times prophecies are to be fulfilled - including some made by Jesus Himself - then we have an issue. We'll need a temple for the Antichrist to desecrate, and God's temple has only one possible location: on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. Not only is there no temple there now; there's a mosque on that hill! Here's Jim to give us the solution to this geography problem, in Part 2 of, Keep Your Eyes on Jerusalem.

God has a clock... and a pin! The locator pin on God's map is stuck into 31.2 degrees North latitude, and 35.2 degrees East longitude: Jerusalem, Israel. That's the Last Days hot spot. If God is to fulfill His promises to the Jews, He has work to do in the City of Peace. That's why Jim says, "Keep Your Eyes on Jerusalem."

When we don't grasp Jesus's power, we will live lives of fear and failure. We'll keep our eyes on our problems instead of fixing them on the Lord who can handle them. Jesus proved to be the Son of God through his power (not just walking on water and multiplying food, but mainly through his resurrection), and when we place our faith in him and look to him, we experience his healing and his saving.

Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” — Matthew 14:31 Have you ever walked on water? I have, but only in the dead of winter, when the ice on a pond has been thick enough to hold my weight. Even then, I've always felt uneasy, especially if I hear an ominous cracking sound. Miraculously, Peter did walk on water. But when he took his eyes off Jesus, he began to sink. After reaching out and catching Peter, Jesus seems to scold him, saying, “You of little faith. . . . Why did you doubt?” But is Jesus really scolding here? After all, Peter had enough faith to begin walking out on the water—and none of the other disciples even got out of the boat. In this story Peter's walking on and then sinking into the water captures the highs and lows of his faith in Jesus. In some ways, we who follow Jesus have had similar experiences, haven't we? In our daily walk with the Lord, we all have moments of faith and moments of doubt. Peter began to sink when he took his eyes off Jesus and noticed with horror the howling wind and the rolling waves. We too begin to sink when we focus on the dangers of life's storms. When Jesus and Peter climbed into the boat, however, the wind and waves died down. Only Jesus, the Son of God and Lord over creation, can do such amazing things. Keep your eyes on Jesus. He will never let you sink. When life's storms overwhelm us, Lord, help us to keep our eyes on you, trusting that we are secure in your hands. Amen.

Ep. 236: Tennis & racing cars shaped Lance's belief that decisiveness is a leader's most powerful tool. As a nationally ranked tennis player, he learned to make high-stakes decisions alone. That same mindset now fuels his success as a CEO and professional race car driver—where speed, risk, and preparation define every outcome.

Guys I do PREACHING TO THE CHOIR every Sunday. If you like these Sunday episodes let me know in comments and I'll keep posting them here and on Spotify. Thank you! Happy Sunday!Mike GloverResilience is faith1. Trust God's Timing Even When You Don't UnderstandLesson: God's plan often unfolds in ways we can't see or understand in the moment. Faith means trusting that He is working behind the scenes even in delays, detours, and suffering.Scripture:“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”— Jeremiah 29:11Takeaway: When life feels out of control, remember that God's plan is not to break you, but to build you. Stay rooted in the knowledge that He sees the bigger picture.2. Keep Your Eyes on Jesus, Not the StormLesson: When we fix our eyes on Jesus, we stay steady no matter how chaotic the world around us becomes.Scripture:“Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, ‘Lord, save me!'”— Matthew 14:29–30Takeaway: Fear creeps in when we shift our focus from Christ to our circumstances. Keep your eyes on Him. That's how you walk through storms without sinking.3. Stay the Course Through TrialsLesson: Trials test and refine our faith. Endurance through difficulty produces spiritual maturity and keeps us aligned with God's will.Scripture:“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”— James 1:2–3Takeaway: Hard times are not the end they're the preparation. God uses pressure to refine, not to destroy. Stay faithful through the fire.Thank you! join me on the following accounts to hear and read more!Join my SUBSTACKhttps://mikeglover.substack.comJoin my Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/c/mikegloverYouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@mikeforcepodcast

In today's episode, I will be talking about the literal and figurative storms in our lives. In Kentucky, we had severe weather a few weeks ago that lasted about a week. The tornadoes, storms, and flooding that happened got me thinking. There were so many people freaking out about the bad weather and not knowing where to turn. I know that someone is reading this who has been going through figurative storms in their life as well. Today, I want to go into our hope during these storms and what we should be focusing on. I will be pairing this with prayer, scripture, and a story time.   Enjoy!   This episode's show notes: https://www.faithfuelsmyfire.com/post/have-you-been-going-through-storms-in-your-life-keep-your-eyes-fixed-on-jesus If you want to check out previous Bible studies, click here To Purchase my "Christ Transforms Me" Journal, click here   Email me: faithfuelsmyfire@gmail.com Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/486483515603028/ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmBsSKktGU_8WHVNIxhFuzg The Bible App that I use: http://bible.com/app Instagram: @_lorenacamille_ Never Forget to Choose Faith Over Fear, -Lorena Camille
