One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! It's Monday, October 9th, and we're journeying together through the scriptures on day 283 of our year-long adventure. I'm Hunter, your host, Bible reading coach, and fellow traveler as we open our hearts to not just read the Bible, but to encounter the God who is love. In today's episode, we'll walk through Nehemiah chapters 1 and 2, Psalm 133, and Luke 22, using the New Living Translation. You'll hear Nehemiah's passionate plea for his people, witness the disciples' Last Supper with Jesus, and reflect on what it truly means to serve in God's kingdom—even when it runs counter to how the world defines greatness. Along the way, I'll share a heartfelt prayer, some thoughts from my own life, and gratitude for listeners like you who make this daily journey possible. Settle in, take a deep breath, and let's discover God's enduring love together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He calls us to a different kind of greatness. The gospel reading today takes us to the upper room, where Jesus shares a meal with his disciples and prepares them for the suffering to come. As he breaks the bread and pours out the wine, he tells them plainly what will happen—his body will be given, his blood poured out for them. He shares that among them sits a betrayer, and the disciples, confused and alarmed, begin to question not just who will fail, but also who among them is the greatest. Jesus responds in a way that turns the world's values upside down. He tells them that in his kingdom, greatness is not found in status, power, or position. Instead, the greatest is the one who serves. “For I am among you as one who serves,” Jesus says. The path of significance in God's kingdom is radically different from the way of the world. The world says, “Prove yourself by your accomplishments, your influence, your authority.” But Jesus says, “Lay all of that down. Become a servant. That is true greatness.” And he doesn't ask us to do anything he is not willing to do himself. Jesus is the king who serves, who gives, who lays down his life for his friends—even for those who will betray and deny him. And though we may have the best of intentions, just like Peter, we're often powerless on our own to actually live out this way of love and humility. We want to be loyal, to be faithful, to stand strong. Yet we fall, we falter, we fail. But here is the comfort: Jesus prays for us, just as he prayed for Peter. He intercedes that our faith would not fail, and that once we have turned back—once we've come to the end of ourselves—we would strengthen others, not with our own strength, but with his. It is Christ's strength, his mercy, his abiding life that equips us to be servants in his kingdom. This is the invitation of the gospel: to lay aside our striving for power, for influence, for greatness as the world defines it, and instead to find our place as servants of the King. We are called to offer the same mercy and love we have received, to embody the kingdom, to bring the message of God's reconciling love to a world in need. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. That's a prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Real security isn't found in wealth. In Luke 12:13-34, Jesus warns us to “be on your guard against all kinds of greed” and urges us to be rich toward God. In this episode of the Bible Savvy Podcast, the team explores God and money–and what it really means to seek God's Kingdom over temporary treasures. … Continue reading "Bible Savvy Podcast | S6 Episode 8: Luke 12"

In a special episode, Greg and Ed interview Kevin Maes in Kevin's own podcast studio on Rama IV. Kevin is a long-time expat in Thailand hailing from Belgium who became entangled in a very unfortunate crime drama and subsequently wrote a book about it called ‘Kingdom of Trials,' which is now available on Amazon. Kevin begins with his Thai ‘origin story,' how he ended up in the Land of Smiles, and more importantly, how and why he fell in love with it.  Unfortunately, he eventually was sucked into a drama involving his ex-wife's boyfriend that shockingly ended in the boyfriend's death. Kevin and another friend were charged with murder, and a years-long ordeal would ensue involving the ins and outs of the Thai justice system. Kevin recounts his fears step-by-step, including his shocking (but somewhat heartening) decision to return to Thailand to face the Thai justice process even though he had an opportunity to remain in Belgium safely for the rest of his life.  Suffice it to say, both the interview and the book are worth the interest of any expat or serious Thai-phile.  Don't forget that Patrons get the ad-free version of the show as well as swag and other perks.

We have reached 1469, and arguably the three most intense, most insane, years of the Wars of the Roses- the wild, forever unstable Kingdom was rocked as regimes rose and fell with alarming speed; two kings; two invasions from Europe; three separate governments, seemingly constant insurrections and rebellions… London found itself trying to cope with a failing nation around it. And upon its streets and within its civic buildings, drama and melodrama was played out, as the carnage began, with slow and terrible certainty, to draw itself closer to the capital.

Are you ready for Christ's return? It involves more than the to-do lists and deadlines we put in place as we prepare for a new job or to go on vacation.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, host Hunter guides us through a meaningful journey in Scripture, as we open the pages of Ezra chapters 7 and 8, and finish with Luke 20. As Hunter reads and reflects, we follow Ezra leading the Israelites out of Babylon—a profound echo of the Exodus led by Moses—as God's gracious hand brings his people home after years of exile. We'll also hear Jesus challenging religious leaders in Jerusalem, teaching about divine authority, true obedience, and the promise of resurrection. Throughout the episode, Hunter explores the powerful theme of exodus—moving from captivity to freedom, from the kingdoms of this world into God's kingdom through Christ. We're invited to see how God's mercy and deliverance reach across generations, guiding us homeward today just as surely as they did for Ezra and the Israelites. Settle in as we listen, pray, and are reminded that God's gracious hand is still upon his people, leading us toward his love, mercy, and true life. Let's set our hearts homeward together on this October 7th edition of the Daily Radio Bible. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Ezra is leading an Exodus. As Moses led the people of Israel into the Promised Land, Ezra is leading an exodus out of Babylon. He's going home. For 70 long years, the Israelites were held captive in Babylon. Now the tide's turned. God has once again shown himself strong, and the kings of the day are now bowing in deference to the God of Israel. They're actually paying for their subjects to leave. The theme of Exodus is perhaps the most profound and significant theme that we read throughout all of Scripture. God is performing a grand exodus – He's taking people from the kingdoms of this world into the kingdom of our God in Christ. When God's gracious hand of deliverance is on his people, nothing can stop him. It may take some time—maybe 70 long years—but when the tide of God's mercy has shifted, when the flood comes in, there's nothing that will stop it. The gracious hand of our God was always upon Ezra, but now it is evident for all to see. Ezra was trusting. He was faithful. He was obedient, long before King Artaxerxes had his change of mind and heart. Jesus, too, is leading an Exodus. But he is far greater than Moses. He's far greater than Ezra. And God's gracious hand is certainly on his Son, Jesus—the Father exclaimed on multiple occasions: “This is my Son, whom I love.” People of every tribe and nation and language from every place on planet Earth are being led out and onto an exodus into life. In him, the destination is ultimately the same for all of us. We're all headed back to that new Jerusalem in God's new kingdom with our new King, our Liberator, our Jesus. Greater than Moses, greater than Ezra—He's leading us back home. There may be days of great confusion and heartache, and lots of questions along the way, but rest assured: we are headed home. God is leading this exodus. And as we read in this story, they volunteered to go—it was open and available for everyone to return. So sign yourself up today, to walk with him as we walk with him. God's gracious hand is upon the Son, and we are in him. So that gracious hand is upon you too. And this becomes more and more evident in our lives the more we set our hearts toward home. So let's set our hearts homeward. Be swept up in the tide of mercy and love that is yours today. And know his gracious hand is upon you. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul today. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity.

Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you.

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever.

“We are wounded in isolation and we are healed in community.”— Tim KellerWhat does it mean to be made in the image of a Triune God-in-Relationship?What if relational connection is the heartbeat of the with God life?What is a relational model for becoming a king or a queen, one who can steward from wholehearted maturity?We must begin by recovering our hidden life in God—the joyful intimacy available with the Father, Jesus, and Holy Spirit. Drawing our life from the Life of God, we move into relationships with our spouse, children, peers, and families—both our biological and kingdom families.Right where we find ourselves. On this day. In these circumstances. Perhaps even through these circumstances, God offers a creative invitation to shepherd us in such a way that the things which matter most are no longer at the mercy of the things which matter least.Join Cherie and me as we take a deeper cut into a relational rule of life and explore generative steps toward arranging our days so that more and more of us can be reattached to the Vine of Life.It's all been prologue. The best is yet to come.For the Kingdom,Morgan and Cherie

A strong prophetic warning: "Pack your bags and leave for exile!" God has had ENOUGH of our rebellion, false loyalties, false prophets and leaders, idolatry, disobedience, and worshipping pagan gods, in particular Baal and Molech. Therefore, judgment must be unleashed; it will NOT be tolerated in God's Kingdom! God is calling for a return to Him alone, a restoration of desolate lands, and the rebuilding of what has been destroyed due to misalignment and falsehood. God is calling people to flee spiritual "Babylon" with the influence of the "north," signaling judgment and the need to return to their true Creator. However, amidst this heedful warning, there's a promise of restoration; four winds are needed! God is raising up "testers of metal" – discerning individuals purified through the blood of Jesus – to help lead the way with God's authority, not man's!

What does redemptive leadership mean? As Christians, we have a unique calling: not just to lead, but to serve. What does this look like in today's culture, and how can we serve as leaders and foster an environment of abundant grace and joy wherever we are?Christianity Today's Dr. Nicole Massie Martin helps us to understand how we can nail outdated models of leadership to the cross, and what it will take to replace them with Biblical ones:“We need to nail to the cross what is a very secular understanding … of [power, ego, and performance], so that what is resurrected through Christ might be redemptive and bring glory to God and good to the people that we lead.”This conversation is from an Online Conversation recorded in May 2025. We hope this conversation will inspire you to identify the ways you lead, and how you can step further into leading with grace, humility, and joy.Authors and books mentioned in the conversation:Emotionally Healthy Spirituality, Peter ScazzeroKilling Comparison: Reject the Lie You Aren't Good Enough and Live Confident in Who God Made You To Be, Nona JonesGo deeper into the issues discussed in this episode with these Trinity Forum Readings:How Much Land Does a Man Need?; Leo TolstoyA Man Who Changed His Times; William WilberforceLetter from Birmingham Jail; Martin Luther King, Jr.Who Stands Fast?; Dietrich BonhoefferNarrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass; Frederick Douglass

Conflict within the church can be painful and complicated. Michelle Lazurek’s Be True Peacemakers walks believers through biblical conflict resolution using Matthew 18:14-18. This devotional emphasizes private confrontation, mediation, and, when necessary, church discipline—all with the goal of restoration and reconciliation. Highlights Address conflicts directly and privately first Bring a trusted leader as a mediator if initial attempts fail Church discipline is for restoration, not revenge Avoid gossip, triangulation, and slander Seek integrity and humility in all steps to maintain unity in the body of Christ Join the Conversation Are you currently navigating conflict with a brother or sister in Christ? Reflect on steps you can take toward reconciliation today. Tag @LifeAudioNetwork and use #TruePeacemakers #Matthew18 #FaithfulConflictResolution to share your experience and encouragement.

In this powerful episode of The Next Level Podcast, Michael McIntyre speaks directly to single men about the divine purpose of singleness — not as a waiting room, but as a training ground. With bold encouragement and biblical truth, he lays out three practical points to help men become the kind of leaders God can trust with His daughters. From building a solid spiritual and financial foundation to pursuing women with courage instead of convenience, Michael challenges listeners to rise above cultural confusion and step into covenant-minded leadership. Drawing from Proverbs 18:22 and his own marriage to Stacye, he reminds men that legacy begins with vision, commitment, and character — not perfection. The episode closes with a call to action for men to stop playing small, embrace maturity, and prepare for the upcoming launch of The Gentleman's Agreement, a new movement designed to help men lead with purpose and pursue their queens with honor.

In a world overwhelmed by fear, chaos, and constant noise, Dr. Leelo Bush offers a Spirit-led guide to cultivating unshakable inner peace. She unpacks daily practices—rooted in Scripture, neuroscience, and practical coaching tools—that help you remain calm, grounded, and God-focused even in the middle of life's storms. This episode empowers Christian coaches and believers to anchor themselves in Christ's peace and model it for others.

In this episode pastor Kent Ward explores how we can rediscover our true identity through God's eyes. Too often, we see ourselves through the lens of failure, comparison, or culture—but God's perspective restores value, purpose, and authority. When we align our view of ourselves with His truth, confidence, freedom, and kingdom purpose are restored.

Ep 45 - Series: Identity Unlocked - Pt 1About This Series: This is Part 1 of our "Identity Unlocked" series. Over the next few episodes, we'll dive deep into what sonship really means, how to walk in it daily, and how to recognize when you're slipping back into orphan or slave thinking.About This Episode: Most Christians know the phrase "identity in Christ," but few actually walk in it. If you've been stuck in the same patterns of behavior despite trying everything to change, the problem isn't your effort—it's your identity.In this episode, we expose the two false identities that war against believers: the orphan mindset and the slave mindset. Using the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15, we reveal how these hidden operating systems drive your decisions, sabotage your blessings, and keep you from living in the freedom Christ died to give you.You'll discover: ✓ Why behavior modification never works without identity transformation ✓ The signs you're living with an orphan or slave mindset ✓ How these false identities make you forfeit your God-given inheritance ✓ What it truly means to be a son or daughter of God ✓ How to break free from religious performance and strivingThis isn't about trying harder—it's about believing who God says you are.Turn this episode into real change: The Kingdom Shift newsletter gives you one specific way to apply this week's Kingdom truth.

This Sunday, Pastor Jon continued our Fall Sermon Series, Making Sense of the Church with a message on what it means to be God's people and citizens of Jesus' Kingdom. The role of the Church is to take people from hostile and divided backgrounds and form them into a new community of love. In Ephesians 2, the Apostle Paul unpacks how followers of Jesus can build a community like this because Jesus offers a better sense of identity, status, and belonging than anything that the world can give.

In this week's Bible study on Daniel 5, Nicole unpacks the famous scene of the writing on the wall and shows how it exposes the danger of pride, the fragility of earthly empires, and the steady faithfulness God calls us to in “upside-down” cultures. You’ll see how Daniel models faithful service over time, refuses worldly rewards, and operates with wisdom from above—a pattern modern disciples can emulate at work, at home, and in leadership. Nicole also highlights historical notes that parallel Scripture and offers a simple four-question framework (“ALIVE Method”) to help you study any passage with clarity and confidence. What We Cover This Week in Daniel 5 - Understand “the writing on the wall.” Discover what Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin means and how it reveals God’s verdict on pride and misuse of power. Spot the difference between words and fruit. Learn why religious language isn’t the measure of faith—fruit over time is (character > charisma). Live unshaken in a shaking world. Daniel shows how to serve faithfully across regimes without compromising devotion to God. Choose the right reward system. Earthly power and gifts are temporary; Kingdom reward frees you to tell the truth with courage. Practice wisdom from above. James 3 says that wisdom looks like purity, peace, consideration, mercy, and sincerity—use it as your checklist for influence. Study the Bible with confidence. Use Nicole’s ALIVE Method each week: What does it say? What’s the backstory? What does it mean? What does it mean for me?

Bruce Wydick is an economist, professor, and author of Shrewd Samaritan: Faith, Economics, and the Road to Loving Our Global Neighbor. As his faith deepened throughout his college career, Bruce developed an unexpected passion for economic development and the role of the Church. The more he researched, the more he realized a great need for Christian NGOs to be able to measure the impact they're having on the people they've been called to help.   Bruce helped start the Collaborative for Econometrics and Integrated Development Studies (CEIDS), which has grown into a network of more than 100 development economists, public health experts, and other related fields from all around the world. Together, they work to support the relief and development arms of Christ's global Church by helping Christian NGOs develop tools and built-in programs so that they and their donors can know where, how, and why they're truly being effective.   Bruce brings a rare blend of heartfelt, Spirit-led generosity and a data-driven focus on high impact giving to help followers of Jesus love our neighbors with wisdom by investing resources in ways that truly change lives for the Kingdom. Bruce shares stories from his research and his own journey of faith, emphasizing that generosity isn't just about good intentions but about stewarding God's gifts so that they bear lasting fruit.   Major Topics Include: Blending faith and economic development  The Story of Mayan Partners in Guatemala The biblical picture of human flourishing The challenge of impact measurement for Christian NGOs Making informed, Spirit-led giving decisions Stages of a heart-progression on world problems: The Six i's—ignorance, indifference, idealism, investigation, introspection, impact Developing an identity with those you're called to serve Understanding poverty traps as a giver Measuring impact through randomized control trials and quasi-experimental designs How givers can use AI to research the most impactful interventions Examples of the most effective and ineffective interventions QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The Kingdom works the opposite of the way that economics says the world should work.” “We should not only be good Samaritans, but shrewd Samaritans, that we actively think about what we do, as well as we pray and feel led by the heart.” “The poor are important enough to Christ that we owe them an informed decision on how we give and not just a feeling-based decision.” “What is the role that God has placed me in?” “It's not about one person saving the world. It's about one person listening to God and His calling on our lives to serve where He wants us to serve.” “If we understand where there's a need and then see where our gifting lines up with that need, God will bring about His biblically-based human flourishing in that intersection.” “Providing cash is almost always better than providing stuff.” “The earlier you intervene in a child's life, the more impactful it is.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW Shrewd Samaritan by Bruce Wydick Collaborative for Econometrics and Integrated Development Studies (CEIDS) Social Impact Analytics Course at University of San Francisco Compassion International Children of the Nations International Care Ministries Mayan Partners Hope Walks The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

10.5.25 | "Dividing The Right Kingdom" | Children's Pastor Naeem Hammond by The Rock Church of Fort Myers

Adversity isn't just something we endure—it's something God uses to shape us, strengthen us, and set us apart. In Part 5 of our Inside Out: Becoming Emotionally and Spiritually Healthy in Christ series, Pastor Talaat McNeely delivers a powerful message entitled “I'm Built Different.”Drawing from 1 Peter 1:6–7 (NLT), this message reminds us that trials are not wasted in the Kingdom. Instead, they are the very tools God uses to:Strengthen our faith beyond surface-level beliefPosition us for purpose even when life feels unfairRefine our character through the fire of challengesGive us a testimony that inspires and comforts othersWith vivid biblical examples, cultural connections, and practical steps for walking it out, Pastor Talaat equips us to see adversity not as a setback but as God's setup for growth.If you've ever asked “Why me?” in a season of struggle, this message will give you fresh perspective and renewed hope. You'll discover that in God's hands, adversity is not the end of your story—it's the training ground where He proves you're built different.

The Kingdom of God is upside down to the world, and the world is upside down to the Kingdom of God.The only way we can endure persecution, insults, false accusations, and people speaking all kinds of evil against us is by understanding that one day we will stand before the Lord. What we take on the chin—figuratively and sometimes literally—will result in a great reward. That is the ultimate test of faith.When the Kingdom is in you, your mindset shifts from temporary to eternal. This will pass away; this is not going to stand forever. But when you respond in a way that is pleasing to the Lord, you bring honor to Him—and He, not anyone else, will reward you for that honor.

We will journey through some of the most powerful short stories ever told–stories that have shaped Christian faith for centuries. These are not just simple moral lessons. These are Kingdom revelations. With simple images– a tree, a lost coin, a house being built– Jesus opens our eyes to the beauty of God's heart, our need for salvation, and what it means to live in His Kingdom under His reign.The parables are how Jesus invites us in. They are windows into the heart of God and mirrors revealing our own. They confront us, comfort us, and ultimately call us to respond to the good news that God's Kingdom has drawn near in Jesus.This week, Pastor Jim Mullins teaches out of Luke 10:25-38.WEBSITETo learn more about Redemption Tempe, find ways to get involved,  or opportunities to serve, visit our website: https://tempe.redemptionaz.com.OUR APPDownload our app redtem.in/tempeappOR text "tempe app" to 77977STAY CONNECTEDFacebook:    / redemptiontempe.  .Twitter:    / redemptiontem  Instagram:    / redemptiontempe..  .GIVINGEverything we have is a gift from the Lord because He owns it all.

Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

What does it really take to succeed in life—God's way? Brother Duane teaches the four foundational truths that shape every story of success. In part 2 of "Four Keys to Every Success Story",  Duane shares how sacrifice and experience develop strength, maturity, and success that lasts—both in life and in your walk with God. According to Romans 12 and Philippians 3, transformation starts with surrender and the renewal of your mind. True success requires letting go of anything that hinders God's purpose and trusting Him through every experience, both good and bad. Even in failure, God can bring beauty from ashes and turn mistakes into lessons that lead to growth. These principles reveal that success in God's Kingdom isn't just about achievement—it's about character, perseverance, and allowing His wisdom to shape every part of your life.

In this message, Joel extends to us the "Great Invitation" to build the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth.We learn about the character of God, trusting Him during the process, and what we should do while we wait.
