Life is better when you know your why! Motives define us; good motives bring good life.

In this episode of How to Study the Bible, we dive into week two of the "Take Action" series, focusing on Matthew 6. The Importance of Having the Right Motives When Giving, Praying, and Fasting In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus emphasizes the significance of having the right motives when engaging in spiritual practices such as giving, praying, and fasting. This teaching is crucial for understanding how to live as citizens of the Kingdom of God, as it highlights the difference between outward actions and the inner motivations that drive those actions. 1. Understanding the "When" Statements Jesus introduces three key "when" statements in Matthew chapter six: "when you give," "when you pray," and "when you fast." These statements assume that these practices will be integral to a believer's life. However, Jesus is not merely concerned with the actions themselves; He is deeply interested in the motivations behind them. Giving: Jesus warns against giving to be seen by others, stating that those who do so have already received their reward. Instead, He encourages giving in secret, where the focus is on pleasing God rather than seeking human approval. Praying: Similarly, Jesus instructs His followers to avoid public displays of prayer intended for recognition. Instead, He advocates for private prayer, emphasizing that God sees what is done in secret and will reward those who seek Him sincerely. Fasting: When it comes to fasting, Jesus again points out the danger of performing this act for the sake of appearance. He encourages His followers to fast in a way that is not obvious to others, reinforcing the idea that fasting should be about drawing closer to God rather than seeking the admiration of people. 2. The Wrong Motives Throughout this teaching, it is clear that Jesus identifies specific wrong motives associated with these practices. The desire for recognition, honor, or validation from others can lead to a focus on self rather than on God. This self-centered approach ultimately undermines the true purpose of these spiritual disciplines. Recognition: If the motivation for giving, praying, or fasting is to be seen as generous, pious, or disciplined, then the individual has already received their reward in the form of human applause. This is a temporary and superficial reward that lacks eternal significance. Self-Righteousness: Engaging in these practices to appear holy or superior to others can lead to a false sense of righteousness. Jesus challenges this mindset by calling for authenticity and sincerity in one's relationship with God. 3. The Right Motives In contrast, Jesus invites His followers to engage in these practices with the right motives—those that seek to honor God and align with His will. The emphasis is on the heart's intention rather than the outward display of spirituality. Seeking God's Approval: The true reward comes from God, who sees the heart and recognizes genuine acts of faith. When believers give, pray, or fast with the intention of drawing closer to God and serving others, they align themselves with the values of the Kingdom. Impact of Secret Acts: This teaching highlights the power of secret acts of devotion. Many struggle to believe that private prayers or hidden acts of kindness can have a significant impact. However, Jesus reassures His followers that these actions are powerful in God's eyes and contribute to a deeper relationship with Him. 4. The Conditional "If" Statement The teaching also discusses the conditional "if" statement found in verse 14 regarding forgiveness. Jesus states, "if you forgive," indicating that forgiveness is a choice that believers must actively make. This choice reflects the heart's posture and willingness to extend grace, which is essential for receiving God's forgiveness in return. 5. The Do-Nots Finally, Jesus provides two "do-nots" that further emphasize the importance of motives: Do Not Store Up Treasures on Earth: This warning serves as a reminder that material possessions should not take precedence over spiritual wealth. The focus should be on generosity and the eternal impact of one's actions. Do Not Worry: Jesus encourages His followers to trust in God's provision rather than being consumed by anxiety about their needs. This trust is rooted in the understanding that God cares for His creation and will provide for those who seek Him first. Want to send Nicole a question for a future Listener Questions episode?

L'idée reçue selon laquelle les femmes sont plus émotives que les hommes a la peau dure. Une étude publiée en octobre 2021 dans la revue Nature prouve même le contraire, elle stipule qu'il existe “peu de preuves de l'influence du sexe ou des hormones ovariennes sur les fluctuations affectives”. Les femmes sont-elles plus émotives que les hommes, ou sont-elles seulement plus à l'aise avec leurs émotions ? En effet, la socialisation de genre amène les individus à intérioriser les normes et les codes sociaux relatifs au masculin et au féminin... peut-être bien que le rapport aux émotions fait partie de ces normes. Comment l'étude s'est-elle déroulée ? Quels sont les résultats ? Comment expliquer cette croyance ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant vous savez".

A serial killer is an individual who commits a series of intentional and premeditated murders, typically targeting multiple victims over an extended period of time. This specific type of criminal behavior is characterized by several key features:Pattern of Killings: Serial killers have a distinct pattern when it comes to selecting their victims and executing their crimes. They may have specific preferences regarding the victim's age, gender, appearance, or occupation.Motive: Serial killers often have complex psychological motivations for their actions. Motives can vary widely and may include a desire for power and control, sexual gratification, a need to satisfy twisted fantasies, or a compulsion driven by mental disorders.Cooling-Off Periods: After each murder, serial killers typically experience a "cooling-off" period, during which they lie low and refrain from committing further crimes. This period allows them to avoid detection and continue their killing spree.Multiple Crime Scenes: Serial killers usually commit murders in different locations, sometimes spanning across different cities, states, or even countries. This geographical mobility can make it difficult for law enforcement to connect the crimes.Signature: Many serial killers have a unique "signature" or modus operandi, which are specific behaviors or rituals they perform at the crime scene. These signatures are distinctive elements that set their crimes apart from others and are often driven by the killer's psychological needs.Lack of Connection to Victims: Unlike other types of murderers, serial killers typically have little or no personal connection to their victims. They choose victims based on certain characteristics that fulfill their fantasies or urges.Psychological Profile: Serial killers often display psychopathic or sociopathic traits, including a lack of empathy, remorse, and a propensity for manipulating others. Many have experienced troubled childhoods or traumatic events, contributing to the development of their violent tendencies.Media Attention: Serial killer cases often attract significant media attention due to the horrifying nature of their crimes, resulting in widespread fear and public interest.Investigating and apprehending serial killers is an intricate and challenging task for law enforcement agencies. It involves thorough profiling, collaboration between jurisdictions, forensic analysis, and sometimes luck. Understanding the psychology and motives behind their actions is essential in developing strategies to prevent and solve such crimes.According to the New York Times, serial killings are a thing of the past and due to technology the instances of serial killings are far and few between. Meanwhile, there have been at least four serial killers caught in the past few months, calling into question the whole article from the Times.So, let's dive in and have a look!(commercial at 11:37)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Serial Killings Like the Gilgo Beach Murders Are Becoming Rarer in the U.S. - The New York Times (nytimes.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In Mark 14:1–11, we see a woman pour out costly perfume on Jesus, sparking outrage from others—but Jesus calls it beautiful. Her motive was pure love, while Judas's was selfish gain. As Passover approached, Jesus was preparing to be the true Passover Lamb, giving His life to save us. The woman's worship was a response to His worth, not a performance. This sermon challenges believers to evaluate their own motives in following Jesus. Is it love? Gratitude? Or something else? In response, we are invited to repent and return to the heart of worship—where it's all about Jesus.

As we get older, no one wants to be seen as immature. Not in the way that we speak, in the way we work, or even in the way we appear. How do we know if we are holding onto immature beliefs when it comes to our faith? To get a better understanding for believers today, we turn to the book of 1 Corinthians, where we will contrast the immature believers of the Corinthian church with the maturity the apostle Paul was calling them to in his letter.

We discover that God cares about the heart. God wants us to love Him, value Him, and esteem Him above all things. When we serve the Lord out of sincere hearts, wanting to please Him, and wanting to give Him the glory, he rewards us only a loving Heavenly Father can.Main Points:1. In Jesus' great Sermon on the Mount he speaks to the heart of what we do for God, not just what we do for God. We learn that it's not just the act of serving God that pleases the Lord, but our motives matter to Him as well.2. I believe this is one of the things that distinguishes Christianity from every other world religion. You see every world religion is about what you do. It's about your work. Salvation is earned by your diligence to hard work and keeping rules. 3. In Christianity, it's not that Jesus doesn't care what we do, but he is more interested in those intentions that are hidden from human eyes. He's after our hearts. Today's Scripture Verses:Matthew 6:1 - “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.”Matthew 5:16 - “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”Psalm 26:2 - “Test me, Lord, and try me, examine my heart and my mind.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

Motions, Motives, and Markel: Donna Adelson's Legal Moves Donna Adelson's legal team is back in action, firing off another motion to keep certain evidence out of her trial. This time, they're aiming to block the divorce records of her daughter, Wendi Adelson, and her slain former son-in-law, Dan Markel. According to Donna's attorneys, these documents—stacked over 560 pages deep—have absolutely nothing to do with her or any alleged involvement in a conspiracy to murder Markel. Now, let's be clear—Dan Markel and Wendi Adelson's divorce wasn't just some routine paperwork shuffle. Markel filed for divorce in September of 2012. Things got tense when Wendi moved their children while Markel was out of town, a move that later backfired when her legal attempts to permanently relocate them were denied. About a year later, the divorce was finalized, but custody issues continued to simmer beneath the surface. Donna's legal team is trying to paint this as a standard divorce between two well-educated professionals—no major custody battles, no claims of abuse, just a clean break. But prosecutors see it differently. They argue the divorce set the stage for something much darker. The state has leaned on this divorce to establish a motive, framing it as a bitter battle over the children that may have fueled the murder plot. Donna's team, on the other hand, insists this is a “false narrative,” an attempt to inject drama where there was none. And if you think this is just about legal wrangling over paperwork, think again. A judge recently shut down Donna's request for bond, pointing to her attempt to board a one-way international flight as a pretty strong indicator she's not exactly eager to stick around for trial. Meanwhile, a separate hearing is on the horizon to determine whether Donna should be kept from seeing her grandchildren without supervision. So while her attorneys fight to keep the divorce file out of the courtroom, prosecutors will argue it's a key piece of the puzzle.

Motions, Motives, and Markel: Donna Adelson's Legal Moves Donna Adelson's legal team is back in action, firing off another motion to keep certain evidence out of her trial. This time, they're aiming to block the divorce records of her daughter, Wendi Adelson, and her slain former son-in-law, Dan Markel. According to Donna's attorneys, these documents—stacked over 560 pages deep—have absolutely nothing to do with her or any alleged involvement in a conspiracy to murder Markel. Now, let's be clear—Dan Markel and Wendi Adelson's divorce wasn't just some routine paperwork shuffle. Markel filed for divorce in September of 2012. Things got tense when Wendi moved their children while Markel was out of town, a move that later backfired when her legal attempts to permanently relocate them were denied. About a year later, the divorce was finalized, but custody issues continued to simmer beneath the surface. Donna's legal team is trying to paint this as a standard divorce between two well-educated professionals—no major custody battles, no claims of abuse, just a clean break. But prosecutors see it differently. They argue the divorce set the stage for something much darker. The state has leaned on this divorce to establish a motive, framing it as a bitter battle over the children that may have fueled the murder plot. Donna's team, on the other hand, insists this is a “false narrative,” an attempt to inject drama where there was none. And if you think this is just about legal wrangling over paperwork, think again. A judge recently shut down Donna's request for bond, pointing to her attempt to board a one-way international flight as a pretty strong indicator she's not exactly eager to stick around for trial. Meanwhile, a separate hearing is on the horizon to determine whether Donna should be kept from seeing her grandchildren without supervision. So while her attorneys fight to keep the divorce file out of the courtroom, prosecutors will argue it's a key piece of the puzzle. One thing's for sure—when Donna Adelson stands trial this summer, the fight over what evidence makes it in could be just as fierce as the case itself. #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #LegalDrama #JusticeForMarkel Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
