Podcasts about made new

It's not easy to feel grounded in our busy, 21st century lifestyles. Our spiritual journeys can feel truncated, stale, or simply seem another "to-do" list item to improve upon. But what if we could renew our spiritual journeys by way of our ordinary lives? How might ancient practices give us a foundation from which to do it? Join us as we talk to author Danielle Mellema about how she has learned to practice the ancient ways in her ordinary days as an author, wife, and mother of four young children.    Danielle's book Ancient and New: Storied Pathways of the Kingdom Coming is available to order from her website: daniellemellema.com.

What changes when you begin to see yourself the way God sees you—as a new creation? In this transformative teaching, Pastor Arpitha Komanapalli unveils the reality of the believer's new identity in Christ. Through the truth of the New Covenant, discover what it means to be God-made, born of the Spirit, and to carry the very nature of God as a new creation. This message reveals the mystery that was hidden for generations but is now revealed in Christ, and why continually renewing your mind to your new-creation reality changes the way you pray, live, and walk with God. Listen and be renewed in the consciousness of who you are in Christ.

You can tell a lot about a person just by watching them — sawdust on their clothes, grease on their hands, how they react when a flight sits on the tarmac for an hour. But God isn't just interested in what shows up on the outside.In this message from 922 Ministries' St. Peter campus, we look at Ephesians 4 and discover that God never came to improve the old you. He came to make you completely new — starting with the heart, not the behavior.

What does it mean to be Made New? On Baptism Sunday at New Hope Church, Rev. Vicki Harrison opened Acts 22:6–16 alongside 2 Corinthians 5:17, Galatians 3:27, and 1 Corinthians 12:13 to explore what baptism really means — not just as a ritual, but as a public declaration that you belong to Jesus. Baptism is an outward and visible sign of an inward grace. It tells the world that you have started a new life following Jesus — not just repentance of sin, but a commitment to walk in Christ. And as 1 Corinthians 12:13 makes clear, it is your official welcome party into God's family, the church. Series: Baptism Sunday (standalone) Speaker: Rev.

What if you're closer to who God created you to be than you realize? Maybe you still struggle. Maybe you're still healing. Maybe you're wondering why you're not "there" yet. But what if transformation was never about becoming perfect? What if it's about becoming who God created you to be? In this powerful finale of the MADE NEW series, Jeanith Padilla reflects on the journey from brokenness to fullness and reminds us that Jesus doesn't just improve our lives—He makes us new. In this episode, we talk about: • becoming a new creation • spiritual growth • God's ongoing work in us • faithfulness over perfection • living with purpose • finishing the race ✨ Transformation is not about becoming someone else. It's about becoming who God created you to be. Key Scriptures: • 2 Corinthians 5:17 • Philippians 1:6 • 2 Timothy 4:7 • Matthew 5:14-16 If you've ever wondered whether God is still working in your life, this episode will encourage your heart.

In this Bible Story, God heals a foreign warrior plagued with leprosy, and who turns down by the King of Israel. Elisha sees this as a perfect opportunity to show all the nations that the Lord is a Lord of healing and power. Naaman is refreshed in the cool water of the Jordan River. As he bathes himself in the river, his sick and dying flesh is replaced with new life. This story is inspired by 2 Kings 5:1-14. Go to https://www.BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is 2 Kings 5:14 from the King James Version.Episode 133: Naaman, now joyfully and powerfully aware of God, rushed to Elisha to proclaim his allegiance to the God of Israel and to give gifts to Elisha. But Elisha would take no gifts for this was a generous act of God. So Naaman departed with dirt from Israel so that he may worship The God of Israel, in his home country. But even in such a moment of joy, evil was at work. Gehazi, the servant of Elisha, gave in to his greed and pursued Naaman for gifts of his own. Little did he know that God saw this and made it known to his master. Gehazi and his descendants would be forced to carry the consequences of his actions forever.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Homily for the 4th Sunday after TrinityTrinity +4, Year AJunw 28th, 2026Homilist: Fr. Elijah LuikhamSt. Aidan's Anglican Church, Nicholasville, KY⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.staidansanglicanchurch.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Lectionary Readings⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Isaiah 2:10–17Psalm 89:1–18Romans 6:1–11Matthew 10:34–42

In this week's sermon from 1 John 2:7–14, Pastor Mark Groen works through John's claim that the command to love is both ancient and new — fulfilled and illuminated by Christ. The passage moves from theological foundation to pointed conviction to surprising gospel comfort, as John reminds his readers that even in their failure to love, they are forgiven, known by the Father, and overcomers in Christ. A challenging and encouraging word for every believer.

Jesus encounters a man who is completely overwhelmed by demonic oppression, living in isolation and unable to be helped by anyone around him. With a word, Jesus demonstrates His authority over the forces of darkness, casting out the demons and restoring the man to health, peace, and dignity. The transformation is so dramatic that the man is found clothed and in his right mind, a living testimony to the power and mercy of Christ. Rather than allowing him to travel with Him, Jesus sends the man home to tell others what God has done, and his testimony leads many people to marvel at the saving power of Jesus.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why am I always tired?" Not just physically tired. Soul tired. Emotionally tired. Mentally tired. Spiritually tired. Maybe you've learned how to survive… but forgotten how to abide. In this powerful episode of the MADE NEW series, Jeanith Padilla shares her personal journey from striving and exhaustion to living with peace, purpose, and healthy rhythms. In this episode, we talk about: • overwhelm • burnout • boundaries • Sabbath • rest • priorities • peace • abiding in Christ ✨ Overflow comes from abiding, not striving. Key Scriptures: • John 15:5 • Matthew 11:28-30 • Psalm 23 If you've been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or spiritually exhausted, this episode is for you.

The skills problem isn't going anywhere — it's just wearing new clothes. In this episode, I unpack how the lessons we learned decades ago (limiting work in progress, the theory of constraints, test-driven development) are coming roaring back as the fundamentals that will carry you through the agentic shift. The bottleneck has moved, and knowing where it went changes how you should work. A lot of what we're learning about building with agentic tooling isn't new at all — it's a re-emphasis on lessons software engineers learned twenty years ago, just arriving in a new form. In today's episode, I walk through why the fundamentals are becoming more important than ever, why so many of us feel scattered despite having the most powerful tooling we've ever had, and where the real bottleneck in software delivery has quietly moved. My goal isn't to convince you that your job is now babysitting AI — it's to show you which parts of the work are still squarely yours, and how older principles can make you faster and more confident right now. Limiting Work in Progress Is Back: Just because you can spin up fifty agents doesn't mean you should split your focus across fifty things. Orchestrated fan-outs are powerful, but a human juggling agents across hiring, on-call, and a project all at once still pays the same old context-switching tax — and the quality drops while the speed never improves. Work Deeper, Not Wider: Instead of spreading yourself shallowly across more tickets, run multiple sessions on the same domain. Write a competing or adversarial version that critiques your assumptions, develop better documentation, or capture what you're learning as a reusable skill. Depth beats breadth. The Scattered-Engineer Epidemic: Engineers are burning out faster, not slower. We have the capacity to push more through the pipeline, so we're getting handed (or choosing) more than we can carry. Reducing parallelism often holds your delivery speed steady while dropping your cycle time and raising quality. The Theory of Constraints, Revisited: Treat your software development lifecycle as a pipeline with a bottleneck — and if you can't find one, you've optimized one part too far. Writing code used to be the choke point, so we spent enormous energy de-risking work before it ever reached an engineer. The Bottleneck Has Moved: When production gets cheap, it's no longer worth heavily de-risking upstream — which is why engineers are picking up more experimental, proof-of-concept, discovery work, and product folks are prototyping with these tools too. The new constraint isn't writing the code; it's verifying the agent didn't ship something broken. Verification Scales With Your Effort: The more an agent produces, the bigger the pile of PRs, MRs, and outputs waiting on human review. That backlog is the new bottleneck — and skepticism is creeping in because we're not even sure our tests are sufficient to verify what the agent built. Why TDD Fits This Moment: The honest question isn't "Can I trust the agent?" — it's "What verification loop do I need to build so I can trust it more?" Clear requirements feed a clear testing loop: write the failing test, let the agent write the code to turn it green, and you bridge the gap between requirements gathered and requirements met. It's not as simple as "go write a test," but it's a strong fit for where we are right now. Episode Homework: Go dig into the fundamentals — limiting WIP, the theory of constraints, test-driven development. Find the old lesson that still applies to your workflow today, bring it to your team's flow, and email me about what you discover.

Join Todd Rogers, Co-founder and CEO of Moddy AI, for a paradigm-shifting exploration into the true nature of the artificial intelligence boom. For the past decade, building a production-ready predictive sports modeling business required millions of dollars in capital, an elite army of data scientists, and bespoke backend architectures—culminating in complex tools that only other data scientists could decipher. In this episode, Todd maps out how advanced LLMs and automated engineering workflows have completely rewritten this equation, moving past basic software optimization to open up entirely new categories of consumer and business software that were previously impossible to build.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dig into the first wave of Knicks championship backstories, starting with Ian Begley's report about James Dolan speaking to the team before the playoffs and delivering a message that apparently landed with the players. The conversation turns Dolan from a long criticized owner into an unlikely part of the title story, complete with his reported joke, his belief in the roster, and his apology to fans for how long the wait took. The segment also explores how this championship changed the way Knicks fans see themselves, from expecting heartbreak to finally believing they root for a winner. Evan and Tiki break down Jalen Brunson's closeout brilliance, the Spurs' late collapse, the missed flagrant foul controversy around Victor Wembanyama, and why this Knicks run forced opponents to make excuses while New York celebrated a title that felt impossible for generations.

Today, we celebrate life change and the hope of Jesus as people go public with their faith and discover what it means to be truly Made New.

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place.” Matthew 5:17–18Sometimes it can be challenging to reconcile the Old Testament with the New Testament. In addition to the Ten Commandments, the Old Testament is filled with countless other commandments. The Pharisees, in their attempt to preserve and interpret the Law of Moses, identified 613 specific commandments. While the Pharisees sought to preserve the Law through detailed commandments, the prophets continually called Israel back to a deeper fidelity to the covenant. Many of the prophets also spoke of the coming of the Messiah and foretold a new spiritual law that would be written on the heart.In today's Gospel, Jesus proclaims that He has not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fulfill them. To “fulfill” means that Jesus brings the Law and the Prophets to completion, perfecting them and elevating them into the New Covenant of grace. This fulfillment achieves the true meaning of the Law, moving beyond external observance to the interior transformation of the heart. Jesus fulfills the moral demands of the Law by addressing not only external actions but also the interior dispositions of the heart. For example, in this same Sermon on the Mount, Jesus transforms the commandment “You shall not kill” into a call to avoid even anger or hatred (cf. Matthew 5:21–22). In doing so, He reveals the fullness of God's justice, which calls for not only outward obedience but also inward holiness rooted in love.The sacrificial system of the Old Covenant centered on Temple worship, where animal sacrifices were ritually offered as atonement for sins. Those Old Testament sacrifices find completion in Jesus' perfect sacrifice on the Cross. He became the new High Priest and offered Himself as the Lamb of God on the Altar of the Cross, a sacrifice that is perpetuated in the Eucharist. Once Christ offered Himself on the Cross, the animal sacrifices and other ceremonial aspects were fulfilled and are no longer required, having given way to the new and perfect worship in the perpetual Eucharistic Sacrifice.The Law and the Prophets also pointed toward the coming of the Messiah and the establishment of the New Covenant. Jesus, as the Messiah, fulfills these prophecies. In Him, God's plan to gather all nations into His family is accomplished, fulfilling the promises made to Abraham and proclaimed by the prophets. The symbols and foreshadowings of the Old Testament, such as the Passover lamb, find their ultimate meaning in Christ.Through Him, the promises of salvation are no longer future hopes but present realities. Through this threefold fulfillment—moral, in transforming our hearts; liturgical, in perfecting worship; and prophetic, in realizing God's promises—Jesus not only completes the Old Covenant but elevates it into something far greater. He reveals its true purpose: to lead humanity into a deeper relationship with God through love, grace, and truth.Reflect today on Jesus as the fulfillment of all that God has revealed from the foundation of the world. Because the Old Testament is fulfilled in Christ, we turn our gaze upon Him as the full revelation of the Father and the only way to salvation. The study of the Old Testament reveals the unfolding of Salvation History, but in the Eucharist, we encounter its fulfillment and completion. Turn to Him in the Sacrifice of the Mass, where every promise made throughout salvation history is fulfilled and made present to you in the most precious gift of Christ Himself. In this perpetual Eucharistic Sacrifice, we are drawn into the mystery of divine love and receive a foretaste of the heavenly banquet, where God's promises will one day be fully realized.My Eucharistic Lord, You are the fulfillment of every promise made throughout salvation history. In the Sacrifice of the Mass, the final and perfect atonement for sins, those promises are made present to us today. Draw me deeper into worship, filling my heart with a profound love for You in the Eucharist. Transform me by this New Covenant of grace.

What if the labels you've been carrying are not the labels God uses for you? Too many people build their identity around: • failures • mistakes • trauma • rejection • shame • other people's opinions But what happened to you is not who you are. In this powerful episode of the MADE NEW series, Jeanith Padilla explores how our identity is often shaped by our past experiences instead of God's truth—and how freedom begins when we start seeing ourselves through God's eyes. ✨ Your wounds may explain you, but they do not define you. Key Scriptures: • Ephesians 1 • Romans 8:1 • Galatians 2:20 If you've ever struggled with self-worth, shame, comparison, or feeling "not enough," this episode is for you.

What if joy was never meant to stay contained?

  Why do we keep repeating the same emotional cycles even when we genuinely want change? In this powerful episode of the MADE NEW series, Jeanith Padilla talks about the hidden things that often keep us spiritually, emotionally, and mentally stuck: • fear • pride • shame • unresolved wounds • control • distraction • identity struggles This episode is a reminder that transformation requires honesty, healing, surrender, and renewal. ✨ You cannot heal what you refuse to face. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, spiritually stagnant, or trapped in unhealthy patterns… this episode is for you. Key Scriptures: • Hebrews 12:1 • John 10:10 • Romans 7

What does it really mean to be made new? In week one of our new series, Made New, we explore the discipleship journey — from the joy of salvation, to experiencing God's love through the ongoing process of transformation, to finding peace through prayer in the middle of life's hardest moments. God isn't finished with us yet… and this journey may look different than you think.▶SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/SouthernHillsLV▶Do you know Jesus as your Savior? https://www.southernhillslv.com/the-gospel▶ DONATE: https://pushpay.com/g/southernhills?src=hpp&r=monthly▶ Visit Southern Hills: https://www.southernhillslv.com/▶ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/southernhillslv▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/southernhillslv/Pastor Caleb Sargent serves as Executive Pastor at Southern Hills Church in Las Vegas, where he helps lead strategy, develop leaders, and build processes to serve people — not the other way around.

Our identity is constantly being shaped, either by the truth of God or the pressures around us. And when our thinking is distorted, it hardens our hearts and leads us away from who we're meant to be. But in Christ, we're invited to put off the old self and step into a completely new identity, one rooted in truth, transformed thinking, and a renewed way of living. When that identity takes hold, it doesn't just change what we believe—it reshapes our desires, our actions, and the entire direction of our lives.

In 2 Corinthians 5:16–6:2, Paul shows how the Gospel changes everything. Through Jesus, we are made new and reconciled to God. We're no longer living for ourselves—we've been sent as His ambassadors with the message of reconciliation. And that message carries urgency: the time to respond to God is now.

What happens after we die? Pastor Duane Brooks explains how God, the Creator, will give us imperishable, glorious, powerful, and spiritual bodies fit for a new creation. This episode is filled with hope, reminding us that every life has dignity, purpose, and a future beyond death because of the risen Christ.

Our guest today is award-winning Atlanta architect Timothy Adams. His firm, T.S. Adams Studio Architects, has become synonymous with classical lines and highly detailed craftsmanship. Tim sits down with Caroline, Taryn, and Liz to talk about his beautiful new book, Tradition Made New: Houses with a Sense of Soul and History, which celebrates homes that feel grounded, authentic, and built to last generations. Tim shares his architectural process, explaining why a home's design must always start with the physical lot it sits on. He discusses the difference between "timeless" and "soulful" architecture, how to balance a client's modern taste with a traditional neighborhood, and why he always takes time to drive around a community to study the local materials before drafting a single plan. Quick Decorating & Architectural Takeaways: Design for the Site First: Before finalizing a design or layout, you must consider the lot. Tim explains that a house should be deeply responsive to its topography and surroundings. He uses the site visit to figure out how to capture the best natural light and views, while strategically positioning the house to block out negative elements like a neighbor's garage or a cell tower. Blend In on the Outside, Be Yourself on the Inside: If your preferred style clashes with a historic neighborhood, find a compromise. Tim shares a story of a client who wanted a highly contemporary home on one of Atlanta's most traditional streets. To respect the neighborhood, Tim designed a classic stone English manor exterior, but kept the interior architecture incredibly clean and modern. Aim for "Soulful" over "Timeless": Tim prefers the term "soulful architecture" over the overused buzzword "timeless". By rooting a house in the right historical proportions, strong details, and authentic regional materials, you create a home that feels lived-in and relevant for decades, rather than just designing for a fleeting trend.

What's the difference in making a decision for God and being truly converted? As we step into Holy Week, Pastor Parsley and Ashton Blaire delve into this trending topic and discuss the significance of this time of year — for both believers and those who've yet to know The Truth. You'll discover why a surface-level faith leaves so many unchanged and what it really means to be made new. From the transformation of Simon into Peter to the call to dethrone Self, this episode will challenge and equip you to become a brand-new creature in Christ Jesus. Plus, our hosts share practical and impactful ways to invite others to church this Easter, as we believe for a great harvest of souls to culminate in Resurrection Season!
