Podcasts about Manna

From lightning lanes to height requirements, there are connections to Jesus Christ and His gospel that can help us in our daily lives as parents raising young children in today's world. Join Seth and I as we share parenthood parables from the most magical place on Earth. 

In this inspiring episode of the Dead America Podcast, host Ed Watters speaks with Craig Alsup, full‑time missionary and global advocate with Manna Worldwide, a Fort Worth–based nonprofit serving children and families in nearly 50 countries. Craig shares how an around‑the‑world trip in 2008 exposed him and his wife to overwhelming physical and spiritual poverty, trafficking, hunger, and brokenness—an experience that reshaped their lives and ultimately led them to leave careers in therapy and public health to serve full time with Manna beginning in 2015. Craig explains the origins of Manna Worldwide, which began in the Philippines feeding children and strengthening local churches through holistic, community‑driven programs. Today, Manna operates roughly 300 projects, including nutrition centers, schools, orphanages, medical clinics, anti‑trafficking initiatives, and church‑planting partnerships, serving around 20,000 children and families every day. He shares a powerful story from Nepal about a young girl whose life was transformed through sponsorship, education, nutrition, and the hope of the gospel—illustrating how long‑term relationships and local leadership create lasting change. Craig also discusses the importance of gratitude, the global realities of poverty, and the call of Acts 1:8 to serve both locally and globally. Listeners will learn: How Manna Worldwide feeds kids and plants churches Why missions matter in today's world The impact of holistic care on families and communities How to join mission trips, sponsor children, or partner financially Craig's personal journey of calling, faith, and obedience Craig closes with a heartfelt challenge to step into generosity, service, and global compassion. He provides ways to connect, give, and get involved in Manna's mission to bring hope to the nations.

Morning Manna by Rufus Parker

CPXL, or CrossPoint Extra Large, is your midweek companion to the weekend message from CrossPoint. Each episode takes a deeper dive into the Sunday sermon—exploring the text further, unpacking broader themes, and offering practical ways to live out God's Word. Designed to equip and encourage Everyday Missionaries, CPXL helps you Love God, Grow Up, Serve All, and Live Sent.This week on CPXL, Pastors Andy Addis and Eric Franklin explore the heart behind “Give us this day our daily bread” and what it reveals about contentment. Looking at 1 Timothy 6:10, they discuss how the love of money and the pursuit of more can quietly turn into idols that pull our hearts away from trusting God. Drawing connections to the story of manna in the wilderness, they reflect on how God teaches His people to depend on Him daily rather than chasing material security. Together, they unpack how gratitude, trust, and contentment protect us from entitlement and help us live faithfully with what God provides.____________________________________________CrossPoint is one church in many places, seeking to reach our communities with the true hope and freedom found in Christ.

This week, we heard from our guest Pastor Josh Clarke, who is launching a Manna micro‑site in Clarksville, Tennessee, as he walked us through 2 Corinthians 5:14–15 and challenged us to consider our WHY. Christ's love compels us—not guilt or obligation, but the powerful truth that Jesus died for us and was raised to life. When we truly believe that the only reasonable response is to live FOR Him and for the people He died for, allowing His love to shape how we live, serve, and show up every day.Our mission is to glorify God by equipping His people to change their world and by planting churches with the same world-changing vision.Website: https://mannastafford.church/Find us on: Facebook:   / mannastafford  Instagram:   / manna.stafford  TikTok:   / manna.stafford

Using the story of manna in the wilderness, Mike explores seven lessons that reveal God's power, dependability, and mercy, while showing how Jesus is the true "bread from heaven" that gives life today.

If God is real and good, why do so many seasons of life feel like a wilderness? In this message, Dan King walks through Exodus 16–17 to show that the wilderness isn't where faith dies—it's often where it's trained. Through the story of manna, water from the rock, and Israel's struggles to trust, you'll see how hunger, uncertainty, and even frustration can become opportunities to experience God's provision and presence in ways you might otherwise miss. If you've ever wondered whether God is still at work in the dry seasons of life, this conversation will give you a new way to see the wilderness.

Morning Manna by Rufus Parker

The wilderness was like going to Oxford, Cambridge, or Harvard: a graduate education in the inner life. Test after test from God. This time? It’s hunger. God responds with the Manna and Quail. Will the Israelites learn the lesson that you can’t stockpile grace? It’s doled out daily, on demand, just in time...it’s the “Manna Mentality”.

Fr. Mike discusses how the Israelites complaining against God and believing they were better off in Egypt reflects our own inclination to be enslaved by sin. Today's readings are Numbers 11, Deuteronomy 10, and Psalm 33. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

"The Manna Ceased" - March 1, 2026 - Pastor Tony Roberts

In this continuation of the "Exodus" series, the sermon shifts focus to the "wilderness season." While the Book of Exodus spends 15 chapters on the exciting plagues and deliverance, it dedicates 100 chapters to the slow, difficult wandering in the wilderness. This reflects our spiritual reality: most of the Christian life is lived in the "in-between" time—after our deliverance but before the Promised Land. Deuteronomy 8 answers the crucial question: Why does God lead us into the wilderness?Scripture ReferencesDeuteronomy 8:2-5: God's purpose for the wilderness: to humble, test, and teach that man does not live on bread alone.2 Corinthians 12:7-9: Paul's "thorn in the flesh," given to keep him from becoming conceited.James 4:6: "God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble."Philippians 2:3-4: "In humility value others above yourselves."Romans 12:15-16: Rejoice with those who rejoice; do not be proud.Matthew 4:1-4: Jesus in the wilderness, quoting Deuteronomy 8 to defeat the enemy.John 6:35: Jesus declares, "I am the bread of life."Key PointsObjective 1: Teaching Us Humility (Deuteronomy 8:2) God uses the wilderness to humble us. We often want humility in others, but resist the process in ourselves. God values humility so highly that He allowed Paul to endure a "messenger of Satan" to produce it (2 Cor. 12).What Humility is NOT: It is not timidity, a laid-back personality, or self-deprecation.What Humility IS: It is agreeing with God's truth about yourself—you are a sinner, but you are also deeply loved and valued. It is the willingness to serve others, knowing your own limits, and celebrating the successes of others without envy. As C.S. Lewis said, humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.Objective 2: Teaching Us to Live on the Word (Deuteronomy 8:3) The lesson of the manna wasn't just about physical provision; it was a test of reliance. God brought Israel into a place of need to teach them to depend on His Word. Today, our daily habits reveal our true reliance. If the first thing we do in the morning is check our phones, our underlying belief is that we need the world's input more than God's. The wilderness exposes what we truly lean on.Jesus is the True Manna Jesus modeled this dependence perfectly. When He was hungry in the wilderness (Matthew 4), He relied on the written Word of God rather than His feelings or divine power. Ultimately, Jesus is the "Bread of Life" (John 6). The manna sustained the Israelites perfectly—their feet didn't even swell from malnutrition (Deut 8:4). This points to Jesus: He is the complete and perfect sustenance for our souls.ConclusionThe wilderness is not a mistake; it is God's training ground. He brings us into places of lack not to punish us, but to strip away our pride and our false dependencies. As we enter this season of a digital fast, it is an opportunity to silence the noise, humble ourselves, and rediscover that Jesus—the Word made flesh—is the only Bread that truly satisfies.Calls to ActionCheck Your Morning Habit: Tomorrow morning, before checking your phone, spend the first few minutes in the Word of God or in prayer.Evaluate Your Humility: Are you able to celebrate a friend's success without feeling envious? Ask God to reveal any hidden pride.Prepare for the Digital Fast: Begin thinking about how you will replace screen time with intentional time in Scripture and prayer.

"Would that all the LORD's people were prophets, that the LORD would put his Spirit on them!" The manna that sustained Israel in the wilderness becomes the object of complaint. The people weep for the meat of Egypt, and Moses buckles under the burden of leadership. God responds with quail and with His Spirit poured out on seventy elders. In this chapter, we see both the ugliness of ingratitude and the generosity of God who shares His Spirit with His servants.  The Rev. David Boisclair, senior pastor at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church in Overland, MO, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Numbers 11.  To learn more about Our Redeemer, visit ourredeemerstl.org. The Book of Numbers is far more than an ancient census report. It is the story of a people learning to trust God in the wilderness, and failing, and finding grace anyway.  In this series, host Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors walk through the Old Testament book of Numbers chapter by chapter. We follow Israel from Sinai toward the Promised Land, through grumbling and rebellion, fiery serpents and a talking donkey, faithless spies and faithful priests. The journey is hard, the failures are many, and God remains faithful to a faithless people.  These ancient accounts point us to Christ. The bronze serpent lifted on a pole points to the cross. The rock struck for water points to the one struck for us. The high priest whose death frees the manslayer points to the Great High Priest whose death sets us free forever. Join us as we discover that the wilderness has more to teach us than we ever expected.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.
