In this episode, we explore the powerful theme of faith, focusing on the unwavering trust in God's promises despite life's challenges. Pastor Karl encourages us to acknowledge our limitations without lowering our expectations of God's ability to fulfill His promises. Drawing from the example of Abraham's faith, the episode highlights the importance of being fully persuaded in God's power to perform what He has promised, even when the process is uncertain.The message also emphasizes that righteousness comes through faith in Jesus Christ, whose resurrection proves the sufficiency of His sacrifice for our salvation. With a call to leave behind religious baggage and accept God's grace, this episode invites listeners to reflect on the freedom and liberation offered through faith, making it clear that salvation is a gift, not something earned.Join us as we dive deep into Romans 4, understanding the liberation that faith in Jesus brings and how we are called to live with a heart of gratitude and faith, trusting that God will complete the work He began in us.

Living with Hope in Uncertain Times: A Look at Luke 21In this Advent season, we often focus on the sweetness of Christmas—on the birth of Jesus, the infant in the manger. But in today's episode, we turn to a very different part of Scripture: Luke 21. This chapter takes us beyond the peaceful scenes of Bethlehem and into a challenging, sobering glimpse of the future. Jesus, speaking to His disciples, warns of impending chaos—the destruction of the temple, false messiahs, wars, environmental disasters, and persecution. It's a dark picture, yet it holds a message of hope.As we face the uncertainty of the present, fear often becomes a powerful force in our lives. From media that preys on our anxieties to cultural pressures that stir up dread, it's easy to be overwhelmed. But Advent invites us to shift our focus. It calls us to look forward—to a promised future, even amidst present trials. Just like the progression of light in a sunrise, Advent points us toward the hope that the darkness is not the final word.In this episode, we explore how we can live with hope, even in the face of fear. Through the lens of Jesus' teachings, we discuss:Hope amid institutional failure.Hope when false saviors ariseHope during times of war and political instabilityHope through natural disasters and environmental calamitiesHope despite persecution and loss of religious safetyJoin us for this powerful reflection on living with hope during Advent, as we look to the future with expectation and trust in the promises of our coming King.

Last year we released an episode of Doable Discipleship called The Burden & Gift of Living. Host Jason Wieland had read a book called On Getting Out of Bed by Alan Noble, and even though we were not able to interview him at the time, Jason needed to talk about this book. No book resonated with and spoke to Jason as deeply as On Getting out of Bed so Jason did his first solo episode of the podcast talking about the book. Well, the topic seemed to strike a chord as in the 6 months since its release, that episode has become one of the most engaged in the history of Doable Discipleship, and the numbers just continue to go up. On Getting Out of Bed is a look at the struggles of everyday living and the reality of mental affliction, to the point that some people constantly wrestle with the question of why to even get out of bed. The book is a beautiful essay on the reality of brokenness, the goodness of God, and the hope of healing. Well, today is a day Jason has eagerly awaited. In today's episode, Jason is joined by Dr. Alan Noble, author of On Getting Out of Bed. In this conversation, Alan and Jason talk about why the topic of life's burden speaks to so many people today, how generations approach mental affliction differently, whether or not to openly discuss your own mental afflictions, hope of healing, the role of those who care for those who struggle with mental afflictions, and so so much more. Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland. It premiered in 2017 and now offers more than 380 episodes. Episodes release every Tuesday on your favorite podcast app and on the Saddleback Church YouTube Channel (https://www.youtube.com/saddleback).

Summer At Victory Part 6 - Nic Miller
I've always struggled with the idea that we are living in the last days. I couldn't really put my finger on why because although I had heard several sermons on the end times, none of it really ever made a lot of sense to me. It all seemed complicated and over my head. However, over the last few years, I have explored this area more deeply and found hope that I never expected. (Please note that I do NOT believe this is a salvation issue. Wherever you land on this topic doesn't change your eternity. I will say though that where you stand on it may very well affect your daily life more than you think) Today Wes joins me to take what we talked about in the last episode a step further to answer how and why this perspective affects our daily lives as wives and moms.
