In today's episode, Kaleb and I may have a few hot takes. We spend a little time catching up on everything from quitting caffeine, mom life chaos, and our screen time confessions (yikes).But we also talk about something more and more of lately—Christian cancel culture.
What if the most brilliant mind of the 20th century was completely wrong about the most important question in life? Albert Einstein was named “Person of the Century” by Time Magazine, and his influence is everywhere you look today— from the atomic bomb to your smartphone. But as brilliant as he was in scientific theory, he unfortunately missed it when it came to spiritual theology. Even though Einstein believed in a being with “superior reasoning power,” he said, “There is a God, but we could never know Him.” I'm certainly no Einstein when it comes to IQ, but I thankfully and joyfully disagree with what he said. There is a God, and His Word declares that He can be known. The incredible truth is this: You don't have to be a pastor or have outstanding character to know Him. Anyone can know God. That is the beginning of understanding the truth about yourself and the world. But first, you've got to remove the one barrier that keeps most people from ever knowing God, discover the one thing God actually wants you to boast about, and understand exactly who this God is that you can know.

Throughout Scripture, knowing God's ways and fearing Him are inseparable. If you do not have a holy fear and live in humility, you will not understand or be able to walk in His ways. And yet, like the Israelites of old, it is possible to be close to God and yet never experience Him. The Psalmist wrote that God “made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the sons of Israel” (Psalm 103:7)—the Israelites saw God's works but Moses knew His ways. In this study, Nathan explores that key difference, what it means to know the ways of God, and how holy fear fuels our pursuit of God's presence and glory … leading us to deeper intimacy and unbroken fellowship with Him and experience a greater passion to live in holiness, righteousness, and obedience to Jesus Christ, who is the Way.
Those who know God are saved from trouble.

We also start exploring whether you or I have any assumptions about God. (Spoiler alert... we do :)I'm super excited to start this journey with you! I know that God is actually excited about this podcast because He is excited about YOU and wants to know you more intimately. This is one way to help connect you with Him more often. Of course, God knows everything, and it is His plan for you to be on the earth at this time, but how much we let Him in is up to us.If I didn't sense how much God wants to talk with you, work with you, and walk with you, it could be quite vain of me to dare say God is excited about this podcast. However, He numbers the hairs on our heads, so He is pretty focused on us. He doesn't want us to be lonely, to feel shame or guilt, or to be unable to hear His voice. Plus, He likes us both, and He was the one prompting me to begin.So today starts a fun journey to walk closer with God and get our eyes opened to the wonderful plans He has for us.

What if the life you want, peace over pressure and identity over insecurity, hinges on a shift most of us never make? This message challenges the way we measure worth and presses on the gap between knowing about God and actually knowing God. Expect a few uncomfortable questions, a surprising lens for seeing yourself and others, and a clear next step you might be avoiding. What do you see when you look in the mirror? Does the image looking back at you ever seem foggy or out of focus? Have you ever slowed down long enough to consider how well you know you? And how do we even get to know ourselves, anyways? What if Getting to Know You starts in a place you never expected and can take you to places you never thought you could go?

What does it look like to live out faith in real life?In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Pastor Jeff and Tiffany continue the Practical Theology Series with a discussion on practical faith. What does it mean to trust God daily, believe His promises, and hold on even when life feels uncertain? They explore how practical faith begins with need, grows through trust, and endures by believing in God's character rather than emotions.What We Discussed[01:42] What Is Practical Faith?Practical faith is trusting in God and His Word in daily life. It's active obedience expressed through love and reliance on Him, even when life constantly throws challenges our way.[03:17] Where Practical Faith BeginsFaith starts with recognizing our needs and choosing to trust God to meet them, as Philippians 4:19 reminds us that He supplies all our needs according to His riches in Christ Jesus.[04:33] Faith and Trust Go Hand in HandPsalm 37:5 gives us the formula for practical faith: Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He will do it. Pastor Jeff shares a story about learning to trust doctors through his own health struggles.[07:13] Believing the Promises of GodPractical faith also means believing in God's promises. Pastor Jeff points to Paul's faith in Acts 27 during a storm, reminding listeners that God's “exceedingly great and precious promises” are reliable and real.[09:26] Knowing God's PromisesTiffany emphasizes that we can't believe what we don't know. She shares Isaiah 41:10 and Proverbs 3:5-6 as examples of promises to hold on to when fear or confusion set in.[10:57] Faith vs. FeelingsFaith is based on fact and God's character, not personal feelings or preference.[13:40] Trusting God's InstructionsFaith requires obedience. Trusting God's wisdom means accepting and following His Word even when we don't understand His timing or ways.[15:30] Trusting God for the FutureTrue faith includes confidence in both our earthly and eternal futures. Our times are in His hands, and we can rest knowing He is faithful and able to do more than we can imagine.“Faith isn't based on how we feel. It's based on who God is.” - Pastor Jeff CranstonWe love your feedback! If you enjoyed this episode, leave us a review.

Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike finishes Romans 12:1–2 by focusing on what it means to know the will of God. Paul is likely speaking here of God's general will—His revealed desires for how we live—rather than a specific roadmap for our daily decisions. We come to understand this will through the transforming of our minds by God's Word and by being led by His Spirit in everyday life.

SpotifyXInstagramBioGospel singer-songwriter Lettie Law is releasing her powerful new single, Forward EverBackward Never Jesus, a song born out of personal trial, unwavering faith, and amission to spread hope across the world. Through heartfelt lyrics and uplifting melodies,the track delivers a message of perseverance and trust in God during life's most difficultchallenges.For Lettie, gospel music has always been part of her foundation. She recalls her earliestmemories with her father, who immersed the family in music that shaped her path. “Iremember what strikes me most is myself sitting between my father and my mom in thecar. It was a Volkswagen, you know, the round kind. And we were listening to gospelmusic,” she shared. “Sometimes we did sing-alongs in the house, like karaoke, thoughwe didn't know that's what it was called then. My father also dropped us off for choirpractice. He even bought DVDs to play gospel performances on TV so we could watchand sing along. That's really how I grew up in the gospel.”Her upbringing instilled in her not just a love of gospel music, but a conviction that faithand song could carry people through trials. That conviction ultimately led to the creationof her latest single. “A lot of things were going on,” she explained. “I was struggling tofind a place to record music, and also facing judgment from people who thoughtbelieving in God was outdated. At my job in behavioral health, I see doctors, teachers,lawyers—even children—struggling to cope with life. I realized the world truly needs asong like this, a message of encouragement. I told myself, no matter how I'm treated fornot following the crowd, I will not look back. I'm following the Lord.”That message of steadfastness resonates throughout Forward Ever Backward NeverJesus. The song emerged from her observation of the world's struggles, includingchildren facing mental health battles and families living through war and hunger. “WhenI speak to people, I remind them that while everyone goes through challenges, thedifference is who we rely on to take us through,” she said. “Knowing God is the bigdifference.”Lettie's music has already touched countless lives. She recalls testimonies fromlisteners of her earlier song Yahweh. “One woman told me she suffered from insomniafor eight years. But after buying and playing the song at night, she slept peacefully, likea baby,” Lettie said. Another listener shared that the song protected her on the road.“Since she started playing Yahweh every time she drove, she hadn't had a singleaccident. One day, she forgot to play it and immediately got into a hit-and-run, butmiraculously, her car was untouched.”For Lettie, the journey has not been without personal tragedy. In 2018, she faced adevastating attack in her home. “My 23-year-old son was killed while sleeping. I wasalso attacked, went into a coma, and nearly died,” she revealed. “When I woke up in thehospital, I realized I had to choose: either die or do what God had been asking me todo—sing publicly. Doctors had said I wouldn't survive or that I would be a vegetable.But by His grace, I walked into my follow-up appointment. Even the surgeons couldn'tbelieve it. The Lord was kind to me.”Despite her trials, Lettie continues to find strength and healing in her own music. “If Icome home with a headache, I play the music, drink some water, and the headacheleaves. If I have a meeting and I'm nervous, I play it, and before it ends, I have peaceand solutions. It does wonders for me,” she said of her new single.Above all, she hopes Forward Ever Backward Never Jesus will bring the same comfortto others. “I hope this music brings solutions to their problems,” Lettie said. “On myYouTube channel, someone from Bangladesh said the music touched her deeply, eventhough she didn't understand the language. That's the power of God through music—itcan change lives across the world.”Her message to listeners is clear and deeply personal: “No matter what you are passingthrough, allow the Lord to see you through. He always does. I've never seen the Lordleave someone in the middle of the road. Allow Him to take your hand, bring solutions,and lift you to the level you want. And He will do it in His own time.”With Forward Ever Backward Never Jesus, Lettie Law invites the world to lean on faithand embrace the peace only God can provide.About Lettie LawLettie Law is a USA-based gospel singer-songwriter whose music is rooted in her earlyupbringing, where her father introduced her to gospel music. Her artistry is dedicated tocreating inspirational songs that strengthen the relationship between people and God.Through her moving performances and soul-stirring lyrics, Lettie Law continues to touchlives around the globe, offering hope and healing through her ministry in music.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.
This is a talk from the Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita series, exploring the possibility of knowing God from the Vedic perspective. Knowing God is indeed possible but requires a transformation of consciousness. Material consciousness is characterized by self-centeredness, whereas spiritual consciousness is a state of manifesting selflessness.In the quest to know God, one must recognize the limitations of our physical senses and mind in perceiving spiritual reality. The ancient teachers of Vedic knowledge describe that which is spiritual with the word adhokṣaja which means "that which is beyond the measurement of our senses." It was acknowledged that spiritual reality is beyond the range of worldly experimental knowledge. The Vedas, however, taught that despite the limitations of the body and mind, God is discoverable, but it requires a major change or purification of our consciousness. In the current age the transformation of consciousness necessary to know God can be achieved through meditation on spiritual sound, particularly through kirtan (congregational chanting).The quotes used in the talk:All of them-as they surrender unto Me-I reward accordingly. Everyone follows My path in all respects, O son of Pṛthā. - Bg 4.11I am never manifest to the foolish and unintelligent. For them I am covered by My eternal creative potency [yoga-māyā]; and so the deluded world knows Me not, who am unborn and infallible. - Bhagavad-gītā 7.25But you cannot see Me with your present eyes. Therefore I give you divine eyes. Behold My mystic opulence! - Bhagavad-gītā 11.8That very ancient science of the relationship with the Supreme is today told by Me to you because you are My devotee as well as My friend; therefore you can understand the transcendental mystery of this science. - Bhagavad-gītā 4.3The Supreme Lord said: My dear Arjuna, because you are never envious of Me, I shall impart to you this most secret wisdom, knowing which you shall be relieved of the miseries of material existence. - Bhagavad-gītā 9.1Because you are My very dear friend, I am speaking to you the most confidential part of knowledge. Hear this from Me, for it is for your benefit. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.64Always think of Me and become My devotee. Worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.65The form you are seeing with your transcendental eyes cannot be understood simply by studying the Vedas, nor by undergoing serious penances, nor by charity, nor by worship. It is not by these means that one can see Me as I am. - Bhagavad-gītā 11.53My dear Arjuna, only by undivided devotional service can I be understood as I am, standing before you, and can thus be seen directly. Only in this way can you enter into the mysteries of My understanding. - Bhagavad-gītā 11.54
Welcome back to Happy & Healthy! I didn't post an episode two weeks ago, and when I asked y'all what you wanted, so many of you just said “we wanna hear what's going on in your life!” So here it is!I cover a lot in this one — from feeling like I'm in a wilderness season, to navigating postpartum life, finding a church in Oklahoma, and struggling to hear God's voice — this episode is in a real way, my heart poured out. If you've ever felt lonely, confused about where God is leading, or just overwhelmed by change, I hope my vulnerability encourages you wherever you're at today.

Lori opens a special three-part series, Regret Meets Redemption, addressing lies that widows, single moms, and even children often believe and how God's attributes dismantle those lies. Today's lie is the belief that we could have done something to keep our children from growing up without their dad. Knowing God as our Redeemer shatters that lie and brings hope.Through Scripture, personal reflection, and encouragement, Lori points listeners to God's character as Redeemer. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible tells the story of redemption, and this truth brings clarity, comfort, and assurance when the weight of regret presses in.Understanding regret and grief, and learning to discern when natural regret turns into a lie.The sovereignty of God over life and death, with Scripture that confirms our days are set by Him (Job 14:5; Psalm 139:16; 1 Samuel 2:6).Why combating lies with the truth of God's character as our Redeemer is essential, and how redemption brings freedom and peace (Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18–19).In this episode, Lori will discuss:Takeaway: Regret may whisper lies, but God's truth speaks louder. Your Redeemer lives—and His truth has the final word.For more information and helpful resources, check our website, PerspectiveMinistries.org, and follow us on Instagram @PerspectiveMinistries.

We talked all things body image, identity, eating disorders, and singleness, and how Jesus truly redeems it all. Nicoletta opened up about her journey through a 20-year battle with eating disorders, a broken engagement, and how the Lord birthed Noble Fitness Ministries from her healing. We also dove into the gift of singleness, the dangers of cultural lies, and the power of knowing who you are in Christ.

This episode explores how prayer leads us to know God more deeply, drawing on Paul's prayer in Ephesians 3. It explains that prayer is instinctive, instructive, and a lifelong journey that strengthens the inner person, roots us in love, and opens us to encountering God's fullness. We look as some practical tools for prayer such as: plan regular prayer times, experiment with different forms (petition, confession, adoration, meditation), and grow in biblical knowledge so prayer becomes a true conversation with God rather than a checklist.
Pastor Leah Klingseis reflects on Psalm 139, showing how God's intimate knowledge of us leads to the courageous prayer, “Search me, O God,” and the comfort that His love is fully informed and unwavering. Drawing from J. I. Packer, she emphasizes that God's care never falters because He knows us completely.

On today's episode Kaleb and I talk through how heavy everything feels right now—political division, violence, tragedy—and how the murder of Charlie Kirk especially is forcing us to work through where our hearts are and how we respond. We share how it's affected us personally, what I've been wrestling with, and what I'm trying to live out: saying something when silence isn't an option, holding onto scripture as truth, loving people even when we disagree, and praying that God would soften hearts (including mine). I also reflect on how even in deepest sorrow, God can bring good—people turning to Jesus because of what's happened—and why that gives me hope.

As we navigate forward on our podcast episodes, I want to central in on this theme of knowing God better. Paul emphasizes that knowing God is the greatest achievement in our Christian life. In this episode we explore Ephesians 1, where Paul prays for spiritual wisdom and revelation to know God better that we may understand our calling, recognize the spiritual riches we have in Christ, and rely on God's power. We discuss practical steps to grow in knowing God: pursuing relationship with Him, studying His Word, learning through life and trials, and remaining teachable. Join us as we seek to know God personally, increasingly, and one day perfectly.
Territorial Spirits, True Justice, and the King's Appointed Times — Preparing for the Fall Feasts | KIB 498 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In this Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, Dr. Michael & Mary Lou Lake address how believers can stand against territorial spirits, pursue biblical justice, and return to the Lord's appointed times with a Christ-centered focus.

What you'll learn: Why curses “without a cause” won't land—and how to close open doors Practical, family-friendly ways to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles The difference between God's feasts and paganized “your feasts” (Amos 5) Biblical justice vs. the idol of “Lady Justice” Scriptural examples of territorial warfare (Daniel, Ephesus/Acts) How Sabbath and the fall feasts form kingdom rhythms of rest & readiness Dangers of over-generalizing theology; foreknowledge, predestination & free will “Cycles of sanctification” and staying Christ-centric in every feast

Fr. Mike reflects on Jeremiah's sorrow for the people of Israel while reminding us that the one thing we ought to find glory in, is in understanding and knowing God. In our reading of Ezekiel, we hear about God's ongoing promise to restore Israel. Today's readings are Jeremiah 9, Ezekiel 39, and Proverbs 15:1-4.
