Romans 11:33-12:2 // Luke Hembree

The Five Solas: Solus Christus

Miscellaneous Sermon - 12/28/2025

There is one God and one Mediator—Jesus Christ, our Prophet who speaks, our Priest who saves, and our King who reigns. The idea that Jesus finished his work when he died is false. He finished his atoning work, but his mediatorial work continues, and it is largely ignored by the church.

Miscellaneous Questions - Part 2 - Ep184 The completion of a list of questions sent by one of my clients. This is my best attempt to provide answers that are helpful individually and collectively.  

Matthew 1:18-25 // Kevin Shoemaker

In this track hear from the third speaker at the Don Smith symposium Dr Shef Rogers from the University of Otago. He spoke about “The Messy but Revealing Immediacy of Miscellanies” using Don's set of the eleven volumes that comprise the set of miscellaneous prose and verse from Jonathan Swift and friends. In 2024 Auckland Libraries Heritage Collections gained an important collection with the gift of 183 titles collected by the late Professor Emeritus Donald Ian Brice Smith (Don). The collection of early modern books published before 1801 comprises several hundred volumes. The collection is now housed in archival boxes, each with a label which features Don's signature, to show the provenance from the library of Professor Smith. To honour this significant collection Auckland Libraries invited academics from across the country to talk about books in this collection. The event took place on 8 November 2025. You can read more in these Heritage et AL blogs: https://heritageetal.blogspot.com/2025/10/discovering-dora-carrington-in-dons.html https://heritageetal.blogspot.com/2025/12/five-hundred-years-of-books-collector.html And additionally in this blog by Dr Jack Ross https://mairangibay.blogspot.com/2025/10/auckland-central-library-seminar-81125.html

Pauls Closing Words to Timothy

Jesus tells a parable about a persistent widow. As we consider the passage, we must recognise a crucial truth: Prayer is for the weak, the needy, and the dependent. Just as a child persistently calls out until heard, we are called to approach our Father with childlike faith, shedding our self-reliance. We will see who needs to pray, how we must pray with persistence, and the powerful reasons we have for praying, encouraged that our righteous God is infinitely better than the unjust judge. 1. Who Needs Prayer? (vv. 1–3a) 2. How We Pray (vv. 3b–6) 3. Reasons to Pray (vv. 7–8)

You cannot stand against the enemy in your own strength, therefore be strong in the Lord who sends His angels to minister to you.

Every year, right at the edge of the calendar turning over, we gather for something that has become equal parts tradition, adventure, and high-frequency reconnaissance mission: the annual “Looking At…” livestream call with yours truly, Inelia Benz.If you're new here: welcome!If you've been with me for years: yes, we're doing it again, and yes, you know to bring your cup of tea, some snacks, your notebook, and this year possibly a seatbelt.This December 31st, 2025, we'll be doing what we've done for almost a decade now. We are looking at the global plans, frequencies, trends, surprises, and opportunities waiting for us in 2026. And if history is any indication… it's going to be both illuminating and unnervingly accurate.A Quick Flip Through the ArchivesSome of you remember the early years of these calls, when it was just me, a mic, and a radio host asking, “so, Inelia… what can you see for next year?”From there it grew into a yearly ritual.Then a community event.Then a “you better do this call, Inelia, or else!”I am not sure what the “or else” is about, never bothered to ask. Maybe this is a question I will ask Larry and the Wisdom Keeper panelists during our drivingtotherez.com podcast :)Every year, we've covered everything from energetic shifts and geo-social trends, to personal sovereignty waves, to those delightful timeline hiccups that only make sense six months later.And—let's be honest—sometimes we've said things that sounded more than a little insane at the time… only to watch them unfold precisely, dramatically, and occasionally with popcorn-worthy timing. Remember the nanobot filled needles going into arms by their own hands, one? Talk about crazy. Not crazy. Real. And deadly.Last Year's Call: Looking at 2025Ah yes. The Dec 2024 call was about 2025. Remember that one?We talked about:* 1. Politics* 2. ETs, UFOs and religion* 3. Covid & jabs* 4. AI* 5 Finances* 6. Mystical seeings* 7. Miscellaneous* 8. Cards (Yes I do a card reading for the year to come)And then 2025 very politely said: “Hold my tea while I...”I've received so many messages this year from people saying things like:“Inelia, HOW did you know?”“That thing you mentioned? It happened exactly like that.”“I literally made a major life decision because of what came through on the call.”“When the crisis you mentioned hit, it didn't affect me because I knew what it was really about.”Which is why I always remind you—these calls aren't predictions, prophecies, or doom scrolls.They're what our human collective is planning during this world split. The plans are carried out and how it affects us personally is all down to understanding what is happening. The real reasons behind the news items. Some of the plans have been implemented for decades. Some are brand new. The plans from the dark-side are loud and obvious when they come about, but the ones from the light? Not so loud. Just a rumbling under our feet, pushing us to take responsibility for the job we came here to do.Think of it as checking the weather before we go for a hike, but for reality itself. Rain won't stop your hike, but you will wear rain gear and won't get soaked. And have a great time.Why This Year Is a Big One2026 isn't a small year.It isn't a filler year.And it isn't a “just keep doing what you're doing and hope for the best” year. It is not a year you can enter unprepared.No.2026 is a pivot point—one of those years where the work we've been doing, individually and collectively, starts showing up in visible, tangible, no-more-excuses ways. If we prepare for it, we will have huge results at the physical level of reality.This upcoming live call will explore things like:* Where the split's trajectory is heading (and where it's wobbling)* The high-frequency opportunities ready to anchor and how to do it* The places where awakened individuals need to pay attention to and what to do about them.* What's dissolving* What's rising* And where your personal power plugs directly into the global momentum* No spoilers here… but if you've ever wanted a clearer map, this is the year to have one.As tradition dictates, I will be taking a look at both the dark/light side of the split as well as the light side and what we can do to both accelerate the split and solidify our light in the physical Universe.Why You Should Join LiveCould you watch the replay? Of course.But the live call has a different frequency to it—because you are part of shaping it. All my calls are dictated by what energies the audience brings. This is not an unknown. The more people in the call, the broader the seeing can become. So, don't be a passive listener of the recording when it pop up in my store, but an active participant of the live call itself.The group energy always influences what the WE chooses to highlight. Did I mention that his year the WE will be more active during the call?Questions asked, topics requested, shifts in the field… all of it adjusts the information in real time.Plus, starting the new year in a high-frequency container with a global community? Not a bad way to say goodbye to the old timelines and “hello, 2026, we see you.”And - yes, we will absolutely keep it practical. You'll walk into 2026 with clarity, confidence, and a sense of “I've got this… and I know where I'm going.”Join Us on December 31st, 2025Make yourself comfortable. Prepare your favorite drink. Open the door to a whole new year with intention, awareness, and connection.This is one of my favorite gatherings of the entire year, and with 2026 being the pivot it is… you'll want to be there, live, on the line, with us.Let's look at 2026 together — clearly, consciously, and with just the right amount of humour.Subscribe to the Wisdom Keeper Hour or get a One Time TicketThe discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Miscellaneous Questions - Ep183 In this walking podcast, I take the opportunity to answer several questions submitted by one of my athletes. The list is pretty solid so I figured I would offer some answers and hopefully more than one person will be helped in this process.  The topics are varied in scope but all offer plenty of opportunities for thoughtful responses, which I have done my best to produce.

A Reminder of God's Grace

The Glorious God We Are Faithful To

Every Christian is blessed by God to be a member of a local church. And with this privilege comes the responsibility to be a responsible member of the church. Being entrusted with the keys of the Kingdom of God each member is to fulfil various responsibilities with reference to the what, the who, and the how of the gospel. We consider the text under the following headings. 1. Jesus' Confrontation (vv. 13–16) 2. Jesus' Affirmation (vv. 17–18) 3. Jesus' Assignment (v. 19)

He's also a good guy to sit next to at the hockey games. Segment 1:  Miscellaneous opening discussion. Not a great game for either goalie but Michigan made the biggest plays in the biggest moments to earn a win. Top line delivered in the 3rd period. A good hockey game all around Segment 2:  Michigan caught flat footed by Wisconsin's aggressiveness. Penalty kill problems and goalie problems. Scored a shorthanded goal but never got back into the game. Goalie interference discussion. Too much physicality too late. Neither WMU nor Providence are looking great right now. MSU clearly outplayed PSU. Probably aiming for a split this weekend. Brief Spengler Cup talk.     MUSIC NHL on ESPN Theme "Northern Lights" -- Kennie Ice Hockey (NES) theme

In the early morning hours of July 9, 1993, police in Sedona, Arizona received a dispatch call from 911 regarding a domestic violence related shooting at a home on Coffee Pot Drive. When they arrived at the home, officers found thirty-one-year-old Russell Peterson performing CPR on his longtime girlfriend, Stephanie Wasilishin, who was lying on the floor of the couple's bedroom with a large hole in her neck from a .44 caliber bullet. Also present in the bedroom was the couple's four-year-old daughter.At first, Peterson told investigators that Stephanie had fired the gun at him in the living room, then retreated to the bedroom, where the two struggled over the gun, during which Stephanie was shot. Later, however, Peterson changed his story, telling detectives he couldn't remember what happened, but he thought Stephanie shot herself. Further complicating matters was the couple's daughter, who told detectives “Papa killed her.”For decades, the Wasilishin family has sought justice for Stephanie, but that justice and the answers to their questions have remained elusive. With the passage of time, is it possible for investigators to close the case on Stephanie Wasilishin's death, or has too much time passed for a resolution to present itself?Looking to sign the petition?
