Podcasts about love mercy

July 5th, Chipotle AND Cava incompetence (there's not a single chicken-slinger in LA you can rely on…), stand up comedy revelations, and I went to see Love & Mercy at the Aero, a motion picture I take quite a fancy to. I also somewhat capriciously yet not wholly unsubstantially compare the Beach Boys to Dillinger Escape Plan.

Ben and Rob wade into the beautiful mind of Brian Wilson's mind waters with ‘Love & Mercy' the biopic that, much like the man, is split right in two. With Paul Dano as the young Brian Wilson crafting Pet Sounds and battling hallucinations, and John Cusack as the older Brian Wilson trapped under the thumb of a manipulative therapist, ‘Love & Mercy' captures the genius of Brian Wilson, the dysfunction within The Beach Boys, and the line between inspiration and illness.But why is Ben so deeply emotionally attached to Brian Wilson? Is Paul Dano secretly becoming what Gary Oldman once was? Why was it so hard to be a sober Beach Boy? And with Brian Wilson sadly passing away this week, are we objectively in a worse world, or is there hope?CONSUUUME to find out all this and much MUCH more!PLUS!

In Micah 6:8, we read, “What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”

En este episodio, nos sumergimos en el fascinante mundo de las biopics musicales, esas películas que nos han permitido conocer la vida, el ascenso, los excesos y el legado de algunos de los músicos más icónicos de la historia. Desde el brillo y la energía de Rocketman y Bohemian Rhapsody, hasta la intensidad dramática de Elvis y Priscilla, analizamos cómo el cine ha retratado a las leyendas de la música. También exploramos biopics menos convencionales, como la historia de Love & Mercy, que nos adentra en la mente brillante y torturada de Brian Wilson de The Beach Boys, y la singular I'm Not There, donde varias estrellas (incluyendo Cate Blanchett y Heath Ledger) interpretaron diferentes facetas de Bob Dylan. Además, discutimos la próxima película protagonizada por Timothée Chalamet, quien dió vida al legendario Dylan en un nuevo retrato cinematográfico. ¿Cuál de estas películas logra capturar mejor la esencia del artista que representa? ¿Qué hace que una biopic musical funcione? Acompáñanos en este recorrido por el cine y la música en un episodio lleno de nostalgia, análisis y rock & roll.

Ever look around and wonder—why do wicked people seem to get away with everything? Welcome to The Daily, where we go through the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. Today, we're looking at Ecclesiastes 8:10-13: Then I saw the wicked buried. They used to go in and out of the holy place and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity. Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because they fear before him. But it will not be well with the wicked, neither will he prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear before God. — Ecclesiastes 8:10-13 Why does injustice seem to thrive? Because judgment doesn't come instantly. When consequences are delayed, people double down on sin. They assume there's no reckoning. But here's the truth—just because judgment is slow doesn't mean it's not coming. Solomon lays it out. The wicked might stretch their days, but their success is a fading shadow. Their time runs out. But those who fear God? In the end—it will be well with them. So what do we do? Stop obsessing over the wicked—it's fool's gold. Their wins are short-lived. Their legacy? Dust. Instead, lock your eyes on God. Fear Him. Obey Him. Stay steady. God's justice isn't on our clock, but it's never off schedule. Your job? Walk in righteousness. Trust His timing. Because in the end, it won't just be okay—it'll be well with you. #GodsJustice, #TrustHisTiming, #FearTheLord ASK THIS: How do you respond when it seems like injustice goes unpunished? What does it mean to truly fear God in your daily life? How can you trust God's timing when evil appears to thrive? Where do you need to shift your focus from frustration to faith? DO THIS: Fix your focus on fearing God and obeying Him rather than obsessing over the temporary success of the wicked. PRAY THIS: Lord, help me to trust in Your perfect justice and not be discouraged by the temporary success of the wicked. Keep my heart steady in obedience, knowing that in the end, it will be well with those who fear You. Amen. PLAY THIS: Act Justly, Love Mercy, Walk Humbly.

After we begin shedding the victim identity, we need something to put in its place. Micah 6:8 provides a great starting place, three standards that will guide us in any situation. Justice, mercy, and humility are not hard to understand, but very challenging to follow.

A sermon for Epiphany 7, February 23, 2025. Luke 6:27-38 Jesus said, "I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you. If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt. Give to everyone who begs from you; and if anyone takes away your goods, do not ask for them again. Do to others as you would have them do to you. "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But love your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. "Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back."

Injustice is everywhere. You see it in corrupt leaders who abuse power, in workplaces where favoritism tramples fairness, and in courtrooms where wealth can buy a better verdict. From ancient times to today, oppression has been part of life “under the sun.” Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, looked at it all and felt the crushing weight of its burden. Welcome to The Daily, where we engage with God's Word—verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. Our text today is Ecclesiastes 4:1-3. Again I saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them. And I thought the dead who are already dead more fortunate than the living who are still alive. But better than both is he who has not yet been and has not seen the evil deeds that are done under the sun. — Ecclesiastes 4:1-3 Solomon saw what we still see today—some suffer while others prosper through cruelty. The powerful exploit the weak, and often, no one stands in the gap. The weight of this reality led Solomon to a startling conclusion: the dead are more fortunate than the living, and even more fortunate are those who've never witnessed such evil. That's raw, unfiltered honesty from a man who had seen it all. But here's the hard truth—we're not just victims of injustice; we're part of the problem. Maybe you've turned a blind eye to someone in need. Maybe you've benefited from an unfair situation. Maybe you've judged someone without knowing their story. Injustice isn't just "out there"—it's in us. This broken world stirs in us a longing for something better—perfect justice, the kind only God can bring. We cry out for fairness because we're made in the image of a just God. That longing? It's proof that we need Him. So instead of just lamenting injustice, ask God to show you where you can live with greater integrity. Stand for truth. Act with fairness. Seek His justice in your own life first. And trust that one day, God will set everything right. #JusticeMatters, #BiblicalTruth, #LiveWithIntegrity ASK THIS: Where have you turned a blind eye to injustice? How have you unknowingly benefited from unfair situations? What does your longing for justice reveal about your heart? How can you stand for truth and fairness today? DO THIS: Reflect on one area in your life where you've ignored injustice—then take one action to make it right. PRAY THIS: God, open my eyes to injustice within and around me. Give me courage to act with integrity and reflect Your perfect justice. Amen. PLAY THIS: Act Justly, Love Mercy, Walk Humbly.

Pastor JD talks about a very well-known verse in Micah chapter-6 but explains how that it's only God the Holy Spirit that empowers me to do that which God desires and even requires of me.

Sunday Celebration Service, February 9th, 2025.  Enjoy this message on the passage from Micah that instructs us to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God by Pastor Doug Easterday.

Send us a text In this episode of The Village Church sermon podcast, Pastor Mark continues the series on Micah 6:8, focusing on what it means to love mercy. He highlights how the word for love carries a sense of deep affection, even passion—something more than duty or obligation. We're called not just to show mercy but to pursue it, much like we would chase after someone we deeply care for. Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.

“We Episcopalians are right to present Jesus as a revolutionary, but we often hesitate to proclaim him as the Son of God. It's as if we're shy about asserting the fullness of his identity—embarrassed by the thought of claiming too much. But, friends, if Jesus isn't the living Lord, then all the mercy we cherish is still buried with him in that tomb…”

Pastor: Rev. Erin Sloan Jackson Scripture: Micah 6:6-8 CEB What does the Lord require? 6 With what should I approach the Lord and bow down before God on high? Should I come before him with entirely burned offerings, with year-old calves? 7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with many torrents of oil? Should I give my oldest child for my crime; the fruit of my body for the sin of my spirit? 8 He has told you, human one, what is good and what the Lord requires from you: to do justice, embrace faithful love, and walk humbly with your God.

Pastor: Rev. Erin Sloan Jackson Scripture: Micah 6:6-8 CEB What does the Lord require? 6 With what should I approach the Lord and bow down before God on high? Should I come before him with entirely burned offerings, with year-old calves? 7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with many torrents of oil?

By Edward Dowd - Mercy is not one-sided, like many want to believe. But we have always desired mercy be extended to us. Let us review a little known letter from Paul about the importance of us extending mercy to others. As God shows us mercy so we can change, we should also extend mercy so others have the

Act Justly, Love Mercy, Walk Humbly With God. That Is All He Requires. Micah 6:6-8 6With what shall I come before the Lord and bow down before the exalted God? Shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves a year old? 7Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousand rivers of olive oil? Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul? 8He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly a with your God.

You roll out of bed, glance in the mirror, and see yesterday's dinner stuck in your teeth. Instead of grabbing a toothbrush or toothpick, you think, I'll leave that there for a snack later, and you head to work and wonder why everyone's staring at you when you are talking. Ridiculous, right? This is the picture James paints today of someone who hears God's Word and doesn't live it out. Welcome to the Daily Devo. [Get ready for a chapter study on the Vince Miller Show] If you are new here, we are excited to have you. Get your James Scripture Journal now so you can take notes as we study this letter together. Our text today is James 1:23-25: For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing. — James 1:23-25 James compares a forgetful hearer of God's Word to a man who looks at his reflection but quickly forgets his own appearance. It's not the mirror's fault, nor the man's inability to understand what he saw. The problem is in the follow-through—or lack of it. Hearing the Word without doing anything about it is spiritual negligence. But there's another kind of man—the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty and acts on it. This isn't a guy who merely glances at Scripture for a quick fix or a feel-good information. He studies it, lets it reshape his thinking, and then gets to work. His obedience is a response to the liberty Christ has already given him. Truth applied is life amplified. God's Word isn't passive. It is active. But we must let it activate us by applying it and living amplified. #FaithInAction #DoersOfTheWord #BlessedByObedience Ask This: What areas of your life don't fully reflect the Word you hear? How can you apply Scripture actively today? Are you a hearer who forgets or a doer who acts? What steps will you take to live the liberty Christ gives? Do This: God's Word isn't passive, so don't be passive—act. Pray This: Lord, help me to not only hear Your Word but to live it out in every part of my life. Give me the courage and discipline to act in obedience, reflecting Your truth daily. Amen. Play This: Act Justly, Love Mercy, Walk Humbly.

In our Dec 29 online service we look back at 2024 and look ahead to 2025 by asking what does God want from us?

The Great Divide Micah 6:8

In Micah 6:8 we are called to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly. What if I told you the key to understanding this mandate is found in the middle? In our previous message we explored what it means to Love Mercy. Loving mercy is a life lived through The Man in the Middle; Christ Jesus and surrendering to God's will for our lives. As we simply fall in love with Mercy we then have the ability to walk humbly. Once we understand what it means to walk humbly with God, we can then move on to acting justly. In this messaging we explore the danger of trying to act justly without first loving mercy and walking humbly with God. When we do, we find ourselves using Justice as a weapon against an enemy and forget that we were an enemy as well who God called out in our sin by His Mercy.

A bold and carefree woman. A living embodiment of human adventure. A confident explorer known to travel the world atop a moose. Archer Roose, the fictional character that Marian Leitner created to represent her wine brand in name and label design, is all of those things. One could say the same (except for the moose part) about Elizabeth Banks, the Hollywood multi-hyphenate known for acting roles in the films “The Hunger Games” and “Love & Mercy” and as the director of comedies “Pitch Perfect 2” and “Cocaine Bear.” Aligned in personality and passion for wine, Elizabeth and Archer Roose formally partnered in May 2021, when she joined the company as a co-owner and Chief Creative Officer. Her arrival came seven years after Marian and husband David Waldman launched Archer Roose, a brand developed to “deliver a better, luxurious glass of wine in a conveniently portable, sensibly portioned, and environmentally conscious package.” Archer Roose markets six varieties of wine, including Sauvignon Blanc, Malbec, Pinot Grigio and a Bubbly Rosé, each packaged in 250 mL cans and sold individually and in four-packs. The brand is represented in thousands of bars, restaurants and retailers across the U.S., including Target, Sprouts and Total Wine & More. Archer Roose is also the exclusive wine brand on JetBlue flights and in March partnered with Regal Cinemas to bring its Bubbly and Malbec cans into over 100 theaters nationwide. We recently sat down with Elizabeth and Marian for a conversation about the origins of their relationship and how they built rapport, trust and set expectations for each other;, how they incorporate a sense of adventure, breaking rules and relatable humor into Archer Roose' marketing strategy; and why entering Target meant being about to swing at a pitch they could hit. Show notes: 0:35: Elizabeth Banks & Marian Leitner, Co-Owners, Archer Roose – Taste Radio editor Ray Latif and Elizabeth share their love for game show “Press Your Luck,” the reboot of which she hosts, before he compares the relationship between Archer Roose's co-owners to the film “Fight Club.” Marian explains her desire to create a philosophy around a whimsical logo, how Elizabeth's vision board helped her identify Archer Roose as a brand that “checked tons of boxes” for her and the importance of optimizing the drinking and pouring experiences. They also discuss Archer Roose's steampunk aesthetic, how Elizabeth's college thesis aligned with the brand concept and how doing the dishes at Marian's house helped cement their friendship. Later, Marian explains how the Archer Roose attempts to incorporate Elizabeth's personality and humor into its advertising, why they ask their lawyers for forgiveness for some content, the notion that there's “nothing worse in business than not being able to deliver on your word,” and how they are attempting to change a consistently challenging industry dynamic.
