Author and speaker Jordan Raynor joins Blake to discuss his new book, Five Mere Christians. Jordan shares how the book highlights five believers who, without being pastors or full-time missionaries, profoundly impacted the world through their work, showing how all vocations can be sacred when done for God's glory. He explains why traditional biographies often fall flat and how he aimed to create short, binge-worthy stories that inspire action. The conversation also touches on reframing secular work as sacred and gives listeners a preview of the powerful, faith-driven lives featured in the book. Through these stories, Jordan encourages listeners to find modern models of Christlike living and practical ways to reflect that in their own lives. In this episode, you'll be able to… Discover how ordinary work can be a powerful way to glorify God, as shown through the lives of "mere Christians." Hear practical tips for creating a less hurried, more present lifestyle, especially in parenting and daily routines. Find encouragement to follow modern examples of faithfulness that point directly to the life and love of Jesus. Jordan is the author of Five Mere Christian – available everywhere now!

Mailbag questions or topic suggestions? Text us!How do we move students from sporadic volunteer projects to living lives of Kingdom Work? In this conversation, Christ's Church of Oronogo's Local Impact Minister Maggie Schade reveals the transformative approach that's reshaping how youth engage with community needs.Maggie shares a compelling vision where service isn't just something students do, but fundamentally shapes who they're becoming. Drawing from years of experience connecting students with community partners, she unpacks the critical distinction between channeling energy versus creating it, and how letting students take ownership of ministry opportunities produces lasting fruit.The discussion takes a powerful turn when examining prayer as the true engine of mission work. Through vivid examples from international partners, we discover how perspectives on prayer within youth ministry often need radical realignment. Rather than seeing prayer as supplementary, we are challenged to place it at the center of our community engagement strategy.You'll gain practical wisdom on developing focused community partnerships, creating meaningful pathways for student service, and helping passionate teens identify their "next right step" after transformative experiences like CIY MOVE. We also tackle the sometimes-controversial topic of international missions, exploring ways to develop global frameworks for ministry that connect students to God's worldwide mission, whether overseas or in their own backyard.Whether you're a seasoned youth minister or just beginning to explore community engagement with students, this episode provides both inspiration and actionable steps to help your ministry move beyond one-time events toward cultivating lifelong kingdom workers. Start your journey today by taking one small step that could transform your approach to student ministry and community impact.

Join us as we delve into the powerful words of Jesus in John 6:35: "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." This sermon explores the profound meaning behind this first of Jesus' seven "I am" statements in John's Gospel. We examine the context of Jesus feeding the 5,000 (John 6:1-15) and how it points to a deeper, spiritual hunger that only Jesus can satisfy. Discover how Jesus, the Bread of Life, offers true and lasting fulfillment, going beyond our physical needs to nourish our souls. Learn how to come to Him and believe in Him to experience a life that is never truly empty.

In this powerful message we unpack Romans 13's call to submit to governing authorities as part of God's design. He acknowledges the difficulty of this teaching, especially in unjust systems, but emphasizes that submission reflects trust in God's sovereignty. Balancing this, he highlights when civil disobedience is biblical—when obedience to authorities conflicts with clear Scripture, as seen in examples like Peter, Daniel, and the Hebrew midwives. Pastor Karl urges the church to wake up from spiritual slumber, cut off the supply lines to sin, and put on Christ daily. With salvation nearer than ever, he challenges listeners to live sober, alert lives, rooted in love—the only debt that grows the more we pay it. Looking ahead, Pastor Karl previews upcoming sermons on Palm Sunday and Easter, encouraging a 13-day devotional journey through the Gospels' accounts of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Being a saint means actively participating in God's kingdom work, not just attending church services. Every believer has unique gifts and access to people that pastors may never reach. Christians must view the world through Biblical truth, challenge their perspectives, and use their spiritual gifts within the church community. The local church is essential for spiritual growth, mutual support, and the exercise of these gifts. True Christian living involves finding joy in whatever role God has assigned, whether teaching, serving, or showing hospitality.Support the show

It only takes a few moments with any news source to realize that evil is active in our world today. But, as bad as things are, the Bible says that there is “restraining power” at work, holding back the full measure of evil that could be released on earth. The Apostle Paul wrote to his friends in the church at Thessalonica about this: “I expect you remember now how I talked about this when I was with you. You will probably also remember how I used to talk about a ‘restraining power' which would operate until the time should come for the emergence of this man. Evil is already insidiously at work but its activities are restricted until what I have called the ‘restraining power' (of God) is removed.” 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 (Phillips) This is part of the Kingdom Work of GOD happening on earth right now. Just imagine what life would be like if that “restraining power” was not at work. Why don't you make plans now to join us this Sunday at our service at 9:30 or 11AM, or in our livestream service at 11AM on riverbluff.live, as we see a very specific role GOD's Word says each of us who follow JESUS should play in this great “restraining power”? Pastor Joe Still

February 15, 2025Strength to Strength welcomed six brothers to discuss what their lives look like being a disciple of Jesus.The unsung heroes of Jesus' kingdom are the faithful disciples who serve their Lord without fanfare or applause.Whether you are a warrior in secret prayer, a widow who casts in the last two mites, or a worker advancing the bleeding edge of the kingdom, you can rest assured that deeds of service do not escape the eye of our benevolent King.- 2:38 Bryant Martin, for Extend Café (https://www.extendcafes.com/)- 17:57 Saimir Braho, for Kingdom Connect Europe (https://kingdomconnecteurope.org/)- 33:13 Luke North, for ADAPTech (https://adaptechmissions.org/)- 48:01 Dallas Penner, for REACH 2025 - part 1 (https://www.fbep.org/attend/events/reach/)- 50:59 Lucas Hilty, for REACH 2025 - part 2 (https://www.fbep.org/attend/events/reach/)- 56:24 Patrick Matthews, for Tent Maker Travels (https://tentmakertravels.org/)An interactive question-and-answer period follows.https://strengthtostrength.org/walk-the-talk-spotlight-on-kingdom-work-part-5/

These first verses in Luke 11 should remind us of theimportance and necessity of prayer in our lives! What we normally call “TheLord's Prayer” is actually “The Pattern for Prayer” that the Lord gave to His disciplesin answer to their question, “Lord, teach us to pray…”. As we havealready noted the first thing we learn from it is that our prayers are verymuch connected to our relationship with God. He is not “our Heavenly Father”until we receive His Son, Jesus Christ, as our Lord and Savior. Jesus Himself makes this very clear in John 14:6 in Hisgreat statement, “I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life! No man comes to theFather except through Me”. The Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Timothy 2:5-6, “Forthere is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, whogave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time”. That is why weusually end our prayers with, “In Jesus name, I pray, Amen”. We are acknowledgingthe only access and right we have to pray and make our request to the Father,is because of Jesus and His work of redemption on the cross and Hisresurrection! Our prayers begin with recognizing and honoring God'sposition in heaven as Sovereign Ruler over all things, and His holiness that isreflected and manifest by His name! After we worship God for Who He is, we areready to make our petitions to Him. But we should always remember that we canonly come into His presence by faith according to Hebrews 11:6, “But withoutfaith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe thatHe is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”  Psalm 9:10 is a good reminder of this truth also: “Andthose who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, LORD, have notforsaken those who seek You.”  Wemust believe that we have a Heavenly Father Who keeps His promises! The first petition involves praying “Your kingdom come”.When we pray this, we are recognizing that God is the ruler of our lives and thatHe owns everything. When God created Adam and Eve, He gave them “dominionover everything that moves on the earth” (Genesis 1:26-28). This means thatGod gave them the authority to be His ruler under Him over everything on earth.But when Adam disobeyed God and sinned, in a sense, he handed the scepter ofthis rulership over to Satan. And the battle began between the kingdom of darknessand the Kingdom of Light, which is also called the “Kingdom of His dear Son” (Colossians1:13-18).  John the Baptist came “preaching the kingdom of heavenis at hand” as he announced that Jesus had arrived. Jesus first recordedmessage in Matthew 4:17 was, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand”.Jesus the King, had arrived on planet Earth to take back His rightfulauthority through the cross and His resurrection. Jesus sent His disciples outpreaching about His kingdom. In the 40 days after His resurrection, in Acts1:3, Jesus spoke to His disciples of the “things pertaining to the Kingdomof God”. The book of Acts ends with the Apostle Paul in Rome “preachingthe kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ…”(Acts 28:31). My friend, it really is all about the “Kingdom”! We areinvolved in “Kingdom Work” with the authority of Jesus Christ behind us!(Matthew 28:18-20). When we pray “Thy kingdom come,” we are recognizingthat God is the ruler of our lives that we have submitted and yielded to His authorityand ownership over our lives. We have given up the only right we have, and thatis the right to give up the right to ourselves as we surrender our all to theLord! When we pray “Thy kingdom come” we are playing a vital rolein advancing God's kingdom into this present world of darkness! I can't thinkof anything more exciting to be a part of on planet Earth today!  Will you join thousands of others today in this great taskand pray this prayer and petition with us? God bless!

In this sermon, Bryan Brammer preaches from Acts 10 as we see how God prepares us for kingdom work.

This is the month of cleansing rain! God is cleansing the earth of unrighteousness and impurity! We are seeing a turnaround in the nations this week and an open heaven! Just as God separated Noah and put him in the ark of safety, God is separating you for kingdom purpose ! This is a week of separation and acceleration !God is also defining sheep and goat nations this week as we prepare for His return! As He separates individuals He also separates nations into righteous and pure believing nations and those that are not. The harvest is ripe for the picking ! And you are being separated so God can use you to bear fruit as a kingdom laborer.Luke 10:1-2 reads, “Now after this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them in pairs ahead of Him to every city and place where He Himself was going to come. And He was saying to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. “Acts 13:2-3, “As they (prophets and teachers) ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.”God has given us spiritual gifts and callings and this week He is stretching us to get moving in vision! He is imparting -who we are and where He's sending us! Who are you and where is God sending you?Remain steadfast in prayer and God will surely release you to step into new orders.Join DREAM MENTORS and BECOME A CERTIFIED COACH!Do you want to be trained as good disciples or biblical life coach ?

Have you ever been annoyed with people's actions or frustrated when things didn't go your way? But after self-reflection, you came to realize that the main problem wasn't external, but rather internal - it was your bad attitude. Recognizing when we need an attitude adjustment is not only vital to maintaining a healthy life style, healthy relationships, and accomplishing worthy goals, it's essential to be fit for service in God's kingdom. (Luke 9:46-62)

October 13, 2024Judges 5 is a "worship song" that traces God's providential and powerful involvement in the victory over the Canaanites. But it also sheds light on some crucial principles about how important it is to partner with God's Kingdom work in the world, right now. It has a bit to do with that "dangerous power" of choice we talked about earlier. Choose your camp, choose you this day (today) whose side you want to be on. Partner with God and participate in the miracles! Make excuses or worse, do nothing "to help the Lord", and miss out on the adventure of a life of faith that demands action.

Kingdom Work for DummiesA SERMON BASED ON Mark 4:26-34Do we make it more complicated than it is? Spreading the Kingdom of God can seem like such daunting work. But do we overthink it. God says, “preach the gospel.” We have to do more than that, right? In his 2 parables that Jesus shares with us today, he tells us not to overthink it. Go forth with the gospel, and let him worry about the rest.

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, they 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 We are reading through the New Living Translation from Tyndale Publishers  

Did you know that over 40,000 people die in traffic accidents every year in the United States? This staggering statistic underscores the importance of traffic safety initiatives.    Today, on the Become a Provider Podcast Justin shares an enlightening conversation with Tom Everson, an advocate who has dedicated over 25 years to making our roads safer. In the realm of traffic safety, data is often viewed as mere numbers. However, Tom highlighted that behind every statistic is a person—a life that can be protected through proactive measures and community-driven efforts.    This human-centric approach to data helps Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 stay focused on the real-world impact of their work. Their mission is clear: to reduce the number of traffic incidents and save lives through education and community engagement. Tom's initiative—turning pain into purpose and loss into a drive for positive change.   A recurring theme in Justin and Tom's conversation was the power of relationships. Tom emphasized that building strong, meaningful relationships is key to enacting change and creating lasting impact. Justin was deeply inspired by Tom's dedication and the tangible impact of his work. He reminds us that everyone has a story to tell, and by listening and engaging with these stories, we can bring about significant positive change.    During their conversation, the theme of relationships stood out prominently. Building and nurturing relationships is essential in enacting change and building something tremendous. Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 is a testament to the power of relationships, community engagement, and proactive prevention in enhancing traffic safety.   Learn and Connect with Tom: Tom Everson is the founder and executive director of Keep Kids Alive Drive 25, an educational nonprofit focused on traffic safety issues. This initiative has been implemented in over 1,700 communities across 49 U.S. states. A unique aspect of Keep Kids Alive Drive 25 is its support for families who have lost loved ones in traffic incidents through their Live Forward initiative. Tom exemplifies a servant leader.   https://www.keepkidsalivedrive25.org/   Unlock actionable insights to enhance your journey as a servant leader by subscribing to our newsletter, Always Provider.      Sign up today at www.clthomasfellowship.org/newsletter.   Thanks for listening.

Kenny Cox, business leader and Crucible board member, shares the impact of Crucible in his healing journey. He shares how transformational experiences like Crucible have helped him transform, instead of transfer, his anger. Along his journey, he was introduced to the National Christian Foundation and the concept of donor advised funds and the history of great movements in the Kingdom of God. He learned that behind every great movement gospel patrons funded the Kingdom Work. He shares his gospel patronage and the mission he lives: “Through my brokenness and my ability to incarnate with others, I encourage healing, meaning, purpose and legacy.”  He is advancing the gospel by funding transformation of the hearts and souls.

Choosing to start a podcast is not always a well-paved road, as Kristin discovers in this episode with Justin Thomas, the voice behind the "Becoming a Provider" podcast. Justin, a seasoned podcaster, generously shares the intricacies of his podcasting journey, shedding light on the challenges, excitement, and the profound impact podcasting can have on both the podcaster and their audience.   Kristin and Justin's conversation urges aspiring podcasters to embrace the adventure with authenticity and resilience.   Listen in as Kristin and Justin discuss: The  importance of being comfortable with the uncertainty that comes with the creative process of podcasting. How it's necessary to be okay with rebranding and not having everything figured out from the start. The  patience required in podcasting, emphasizing that understanding your message, finding alignment, and creating systems that work take time. Finding alignment with one's passion and purpose is a key factor in sustaining the momentum throughout the podcasting journey.   Remember, as a podcaster the journey is as significant as the destination. Justin Thomas's story exemplifies the power of authenticity, passion, and resilience in creating a podcast that not only entertains but also inspires.

Today we are talking about the pleasure of participating with God in His Kingdom building. He chose to invite us to participate. We cannot just be believers in Jesus, we need to be His followers. And it means involving every aspect of our lives. Our faith is about the delight to be where Jesus is. He invites us to love – to let Him love through us! And one of the best ways to love God, is to love others in His Name. So, my invitation to you today is to pray about it as you listen to Ros and me. Have a conversation with God about where He would have you focus your prayers, your time, and yes, your money. Listen to our vision and ask yourself if and how you want to be a part of it. My pastor says the same parting words each week at the end of the service at church. He says, “life is short, and we do not have much time to gladden the hearts of those who travel with us. So, be swift to love, and make haste to be kind.” It is a blessing that is inspired, originally, by the words of my French compatriot, Henri Frederic Amiel (1821-1881). This is what we are inviting you into. As we approach the end of another incredible year, we wanted to extend our deepest gratitude for your continued support and partnership in spreading the gospel message to countries all around the world. It is truly an honor to serve alongside each one of you! Don't forget! Go to gospelspice.com/Christmas for a LOT of FREE and beautiful inspirations to make this Christmas your most Christ-centered and Gospel-spiced one! And also, brand new line of Christmas merch at gospelspice.com/merch - don't miss out! In this special Giving Tuesday edition, we want to highlight the pleasure and privilege we have of participating with God in His kingdom building. God invites us to love others and to let Him love others through us. We heard the God-honoring, heartwarming story of a mother and son in Canada who have been faithfully listening to the podcast. Through the message of Gospel Spice, this young boy's faith has blossomed, and his relationship with God has become a source of hope and inspiration. It is stories like these that drive us to pour our hearts and souls into what we do. To continue expanding the impact of Gospel Spice, we have exciting plans for the future. We are committed to deepening personal intimacy with God and loving others as ourselves. We will continue producing impactful podcast episodes and engaging Bible studies, but we also have plans to develop new formats such as courses and expand our YouTube channel.

Go to gospelspice.com for more, and go especially to gospelspice.com/podcast to enjoy our guests! Interested in our blog? Click here: gospelspice.com/blog What matters to us here at Gospel Spice is to create a place where people who seek deeper intimacy with Jesus, will find Him. We want a warm, welcoming atmosphere to journey ever deeper into the heart of God. We believe it is the ultimate calling of the Christian life, and I like to summarize it with my motto, God's glory, our delight. That is why we invite you to “taste and see” that the Lord is good. And we have been doing this every day since 2019. We need YOU to keep Gospel Spice alive and growing.   Financially speaking, we rely on people who understand this vision and who understand that we cannot function without a minimum budget. We run an extremely tight budget. For example, I work full time but don't draw a salary. And yet, we have expenses – for example, the equipment and technology we use, and also the wonderfully gifted staff who make it possible to deliver high quality content all around the globe, and then the necessary occasional promotional budget to make it possible to be discovered by those who seek to live a life spiced with the gospel of Jesus Christ. We need your help.   So we would love for you to consider if this ministry is blessing you to pay gospel spice forward. You can partner with us monthly with 10, 25, 50, 100, a month, or you can make one donation, once. And because we are a register nonprofit organization in the United States under the status of a 501c3 charity, it means that the amount that you pay to gospel spice is fully tax deductible. Completely tax deductible. So you're even saving money as you invest in gospel spice ministries. It is an eternal investment, and we are very grateful to you for it. Now it's very important to us that we give back as much as possible from what you give us. And so we commit to giving the majority of what we receive, once all of our administrative costs are paid, to organizations that fight human trafficking on the front line. There are many worthwhile causes in the world, so why this one? Because I have always personally felt deep compassion for victims of human trafficking – maybe because I have never been its victim myself, so I feel a responsibility to help those less fortunate than me. Also, because Jesus tells us to love our neighbor. Human trafficking is modern day slavery, and that is something that revolts the heart of God. We want to play our part in raising awareness and then financially supporting those who fight this great evil.   So, we do some due diligence. We pick organizations who have proven themselves trustworthy of our support. And then we give money to these Christians organizations that fight human trafficking. So would you consider paying us forward at gospelspice.com/payitforward? Your hard-earned money is always well used at Gospel Spice. Ultimately, you are giving back to the Kingdom, a portion of what Jesus has given you. We are well aware of the privilege to steward your partnership. And my prayer is always that you will find your own life spiced with the gospel as you partner with us to flavor the lives of those around us, near and far, with the spice of the gospel.
