What if Christianity was never meant to be about escaping earth for heaven, but about God coming home to the world? In this episode, I sit down with N. T. Wright for a wide-ranging conversation that reclaims the Bible's larger story: heaven and earth meant to overlap, God dwelling with humanity, and new creation beginning now. We explore temples and tabernacles, resurrection and judgment, what it truly means to be human, and how the church is called to reflect God's presence in a fractured world. Drawing from Wright's latest book God's Homecoming, this conversation invites youto rethink faith, hope, justice, and the future of the world and to rediscover a gospel that is far bigger, richer, and more grounded than we thought.N. T. Wright is the former Bishop of Durham in the Church of England and one of the world's leading Bible scholars. He is Senior Research Fellow at Wycliffe Hall, Oxford University, and Senior Editor at Saint Andrews. He has been featured on ABC News, Dateline, The Colbert Report, and NPR's Fresh Air. Wright is the award-winning author of many books, including Paul: A Biography, Simply Christian, Surprised by Hope, The Day the Revolution Began, Simply Jesus, After You Believe, and Scripture and the Authority of God.N.T.

How can we help ourselves to defeat the besetting sins of p0rn0graphy and lust?
A deep look at how Christians can help one another--particularly addressing P0RN and lust, but much of it is still applicable to every other besetting sin.
This week, we finish up our series "All Things New." Join us as we learn that embracing the Gospel makes all things new.
Relationships shape everything. Our faith. Our families. Our future. In this opening message of the Connections series, we lay a biblical foundation for understanding why relationships are God's idea and why their health matters more than we often realize.Pastor Sawyer teaches that every relationship in our lives flows from one primary connection: our relationship with Jesus Christ. Learn what it truly means to remain connected to Christ and how that connection determines the fruit we bear in marriage, friendships, and everyday life.It's time to ask some honest questions: Who am I connected to? What am I connected to? And why? Through practical teaching and biblical truth, we learn how unhealthy connections lead to broken cycles, while godly connections bring healing, freedom, and purpose. Whether you are navigating marriage, friendships, or personal growth, this message provides clarity, wisdom, and a starting point for lasting transformation.If you are longing for healthier relationships, spiritual growth, and a stronger foundation for your life, this series begins here.00:00 Introduction to the Connections Series 00:09 Why Relationships Matter to God 00:49 Challenges Facing Relationships Today 03:38 The Foundational Connection with Jesus Christ 04:37 Understanding Connection vs. Relationship 14:11 The Love Triangle: God, You, and Others 20:04 Becoming a New Creation in Christ 25:40 Adoption and Inheritance Through Christ 25:53 Healing and Transformation in Christ 26:26 Life Without Christ and Brokenness 27:18 The Three-Legged Race Illustration 28:19 Recognizing Cycles of Brokenness 29:13 Living as a New Creation 29:41 Christ as the Foundation of Relationships 29:58 Freedom and Forgiveness in Christ 30:35 Learning to Live in the Spirit 33:39 Understanding the Will of God 40:04 Submission, Cooperation, and Unity 44:02 Evaluating Your Connections 46:39 Living with Love and Gratitude in ChristDigital Connect Card: www.calvaryassembly.org/new Giving: https://calvarylive.churchcenter.com/giving Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/CalvaryLiveAL/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CalvaryLive/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvary_live/ Need prayer? https://www.calvaryassembly.org/prayer Want to take your next step in faith?

What if the deepest divisions in your life could be completely erased? Ephesians 2 reveals a stunning truth: through Christ, old barriers are abolished and you become part of one new family. Your identity is no longer defined by cultural labels but by belonging to Christ alone. Listen now and be inspired to live as a countercultural witness to God's reconciling love.

Title: "A World Without Tears" - Revelation 21:1-4 Series: Heaven on Earth - Living in Light of Eternity (Week 1) Date: February 9, 2026 What do you actually believe about heaven? For many, the mental image is clouds, harps, and disembodied spirits floating in some ethereal realm. But what the Bible reveals about eternity is far more beautiful, more real, and more glorious than most of us imagine. This message launches a four-week series exploring what Scripture actually says about the world to come—and how understanding eternity changes how we live today. Using Revelation 21:1-4 as our foundation, we examined three beautiful truths about God's ultimate plan for His people and His creation. The passage begins with John's vision: "Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away...And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, 'Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.'" First, God is making all things new. Notice carefully: John sees a new heaven AND a new earth—not just heaven. This is crucial. Most Christians think the hope of the gospel is escaping earth to live in heaven forever. But that's not what the Bible teaches. The Bible teaches restoration, not evacuation. God isn't abandoning His creation; He's redeeming it. He's making all things new. The Greek word for "new" here is kainos, which means renewed or made fresh, not neos (brand new, never existed before). God isn't starting from scratch—He's taking this creation, the one He called "very good" in Genesis, and renewing it, purifying it, perfecting it. We addressed an important theological question: How does this relate to 2 Peter 3:10, which speaks of the earth being destroyed by fire? There's a faithful debate among Bible-believing Christians on this point. Some teachers, like John MacArthur, believe God will completely destroy this earth and create an entirely brand new one from nothing—total replacement. Others, like Anthony Hoekema, Herman Bavinck, and many Reformed theologians, believe God will purify this earth by fire and renew it—restoration, not replacement. The renewal view seems supported by Romans 8:21 (creation itself will be "set free from bondage to corruption") and Acts 3:21 ("restoration of all things"). Either way, both views agree on what matters: whether God makes all NEW things or makes all things NEW, the result is the same—a perfect, physical world where God dwells with His people forever. We traced the story of Scripture from beginning to end: It starts in a garden (Genesis 1-2) where God creates a physical world and calls it "very good." Sin enters and creation is cursed, but God doesn't give up. The story ends (Revelation 21-22) in a garden-city, a new heaven and new earth where God's people live in physical, resurrected bodies in a restored creation. God is coming full circle: Creation → Fall → Redemption → Restoration. This means eternity won't be some strange, unfamiliar place. It will be this world—but healed. The mountains, oceans, beauty we see in creation will be there, but better, perfected, free from sin and death and decay. We'll have physical bodies like Jesus had after His resurrection. We'll eat, drink, work, create, explore, enjoy. Because God loves the physical world He created, and He's not throwing it away. Second, God will dwell with us forever. Verse 3 declares: "Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man." This is the heart of the gospel, what everything has been building toward. Not just that we go to heaven, but that God comes to dwell with us—permanently, fully, without barriers. This has been God's desire from the beginning. We traced the progression through Scripture: In the Garden of Eden, God walked with Adam and Eve in intimacy and fellowship. After the fall, God gave Israel the Tabernacle—a tent where His presence dwelt among them in the wilderness. Then came the Temple—a permanent structure where God's glory filled the Holy of Holies, but His presence was separated by a veil that only the high priest could pass once a year. Then Jesus—Immanuel, "God with us." John 1:14 says "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us" (literally "tabernacled" among us). Then the Holy Spirit—dwelling IN believers, making our bodies temples. And finally, the New Creation—Revelation 21:3, God dwelling with His people forever with no separation, no barriers, no veil, no limits. Do you see the progression? Garden → Tabernacle → Temple → Jesus → Spirit → New Creation. God has been moving closer and closer, until finally He dwells with us completely. This is what we were made for—to be with God, to know Him, to enjoy Him forever. The verse continues: "God himself will be with them as their God." Not just His blessings or gifts, but GOD HIMSELF. This is why heaven is heaven—because God is there. If heaven had everything—beauty, joy, peace, perfection—but God wasn't there, it wouldn't be heaven. But God will be there, fully, visibly, intimately. We will see Him face to face (1 John 3:2). Not through a veil, not from a distance, not in shadows or glimpses, but face to face, fully known and fully loved. The deepest longing of the human heart—for intimacy, connection, to be fully known and fully loved—will be satisfied. Not by stuff or experiences, but by God Himself. Every good thing we've ever experienced is just an echo, a preview, a shadow of what it will be like to be with God forever. C.S. Lewis said, "If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world." We were made for another world, and in that world, God will dwell with us forever. Third, God will wipe away every tear. Verse 4 gives us one of the most tender images in all of Scripture: "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes." Not that tears will just disappear or suffering will be forgotten, but that God Himself will wipe away every tear—personally, gently, completely. Picture the God of the universe, the Creator of all things, tenderly reaching down to wipe the tears from your eyes. Like a father comforting a child, like a mother soothing her baby. That's intimacy, that's love, that's the heart of God toward His people. Then comes the promise: "Death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." Four things gone forever: Death—no more funerals, goodbyes, or loss (1 Corinthians 15:26 says death is the last enemy to be destroyed, and it will be, completely). Mourning—no more grief over broken relationships or heartache over what could have been. Crying—no more tears of pain, loneliness, rejection, or disappointment. Pain—no more chronic illness, suffering, or physical or emotional agony. The curse of Genesis 3 will be fully reversed. We heard encouragement for those living with chronic pain from fibromyalgia and migraines, some days barely able to function despite prayers for healing and every treatment attempted. The message concluded with three applications: First, let this change your perspective on suffering. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18 reminds us that our light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory, as we look to what is unseen and eternal. Your suffering is real but temporary; what's coming is eternal. Second, let this fuel your longing for Christ's return. The early church prayed "Maranatha"—"Come, Lord Jesus." Do we long for His return, or are we too comfortable here? Third, let this shape how you live today. If God is making all things new, then your life has meaning, your work has value, your relationships matter, your suffering isn't wasted. Live in light of eternity. God is making all things new. He will dwell with us forever. He will wipe away every tear. That's the world to come, and it's more beautiful than we can imagine.

One of the most overlooked aspects of the Holy Spirit in our world is the overwhelming life that is made possible by his presence. Although this absolutely applies to the new, resurrection life we can experience in the New Creation thanks to the sacrifice of Jesus, the Spirit of Life goes even deeper in our world, now. Throughout Scripture we see God's Spirit as the vivifying source of all life in Creation, we see the Spirit drawing humanity away from our violent and warlike tendencies and into life-sustaining peace, and we see the Spirit shaping Christ-followers into fountains of God's life and abundance in a still broken world. The Spirit helps us champion the life of the downtrodden, protect the life of the vulnerable, and even nurture the life of our physical world. In a time filled with decay, pain, violence, and death, it is vital to remember that the Spirit within us is working to transform us into sources of life in our world now, not just in the resurrection. What might it look like to delve deeply into the life-giving richness of the Holy Spirit this year, allowing New Creation to spring up everywhere we go, and thus bringing the life of our Creator into our broken world?

If you're a worship leader, you plan services. It comes with the territory. It's part of the job. Most of the time, that comes down to picking songs. But what are we missing in our churches when service planning, programming, and worship leading is reduced to merely picking songs? W. David O. Taylor is Associate Professor of Theology & Culture at Fuller Theological Seminary as well as the director of various initiatives in worship, theology and the arts. He teaches courses in systematic theology, art and worship, art and theology, art and beauty, spiritual formation through the psalms, and theology and science fiction. He is the author of the books Glimpses of The New Creation, Prayers for the Pilgrimage, A Body of Praise, Open & Unafraid, as well as the upcoming book To Set the World Aflame: How Artists Bear Witness to the Fullness of God's Creation. David is a deep well of wisdom when it comes to worship and the arts. What I love about this conversation is he helps us see more expansive view of what worship is and can be in the church. We discuss why artists are necessary and how they help us see more of God. The value of silence in our gatherings. The kinds of songs we need to be singing today. Why the predominant worship model today isn't wrong, but inadequate. You can reach me anytime at david@beyondsundayworship.com. Thank you for listening. Topics Covered: The difference between formation and experience in worship Why our current model of worship experiences isn’t wrong, but inadequate The value of silence in our gatherings Why we need artists in the church Creative ways to introduce silence, reflection, and community in our worship spaces The kinds of songs the church needs to be singing today Resources Mentioned: Show Sponsor: Planning Center Glimpses of the New Creation by W.

In this message on Ephesians 2:1–10, Pastor Jim urges us to grasp the depth of what it means to be rescued by grace. We are not simply saved from something but brought into something entirely new. Jim describes the contrast between our spiritual death and the new life found in Christ, inviting us to see salvation not as a ticket to heaven but as a radical relocation into God's household. Through vivid imagery and honest reflection, Jim unpacks the beauty of God's mercy, our position in Christ, and the truth that we are God's workmanship created for good works. The church, as God's new family, becomes a sign of new creation in a world desperate for hope, healing, and wholeness.
This Sunday morning teaching happened in an atypical, even experimental form— a sermon in dramatic dialogue. In a kind of homage to the quirky, 1981 film, My Dinner with André, the “sermon” mirrored the wide-ranging, personal, and deep conversation between Wallace and André (the actual names of the actors/characters in the movie). But the content of Sunday's dialogue between André (Pastor Chris) and Wallace (Robert Brown) centered on two friends catching up after a long absence who had, unbeknownst to each other, had married, had families, become Christians, and pursued careers/callings neither expected of each other or themselves. André had become an Eastern Orthodox layman and a Marriage and Family Therapist, while Wallace had become a Presbyterian pastor. The Lectionary texts consist of a Wisdom Psalm (Psalm 15), and a Prophetic text (Micah 6). After André and Wallace retell their conversion stories and the life events that led them up to the present, they end up talking about the Epiphany texts for Wallace's upcoming sermon. That discussion forms the key transition to the real meat of the conversation—how we as Christians might wrestle with such texts. Note: The photograph associated with this podcast is a production still from the movie "My Dinner with André."
What if you're already sitting on more blessings than you realize? After weeks of talking about sin and negative programming, Dr. Alex Lloyd and Harry bring the good news: God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit have given you gifts that completely tidal wave your struggles. This isn't feel-good fluff—this is a comprehensive, scripture-backed catalog of what you actually receive from the Trinity. WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER IN THIS EPISODE: - The complete list of gifts from God the Father (presence, power, glory, light, love, grace, and more) - What Jesus specifically gives you that the Father doesn't (His way, truth, life, righteousness, peace) - The unique blessings only the Holy Spirit provides (comfort, perfect counsel, fruit of the Spirit, power) - Why you receive love, peace, and grace from all three—and why that matters - What "glory" actually means in Old vs. New Testament (Harry's word study insights) - Why guilt and shame DON'T come from God (even when you've sinned) - The experiential difference between natural living and living in these gifts - How Harry's life transformed over 2-3 years by intentionally pursuing these blessings KEY TOPICS COVERED: God's Presence Everywhere - Psalm 139: "Where can I go that you're not there?" Supernatural Power vs. Natural Strength - Ephesians 3 The "Weight" of God's Glory That Fills the Earth Miraculous Light That Cleanses and Heals The New Heart and New Spirit Promise - Ezekiel 36:26-27 Being Made a New Creation - 2 Corinthians 5:17 Seated with Christ in Heaven's Throne Room - Ephesians 2:6 Jesus as Both Your Judge AND Defense Attorney The Mind of Christ and Being His Bride His Righteousness Imputed to You (How God judges you righteous even when you remember sinning) Love Beyond Knowledge - Ephesians 3:17-19 Peace That Passes Understanding Holy Spirit's Perfect Counsel for Your Specific Moment Fruit of the Spirit: Love, Joy, Peace, Kindness, Goodness, Faith, Humility, Self-Control The Same Power That Raised Jesus From the Dead Working in You Life and Health to Your Mortal Body - Romans 8:11 Unlimited Forgiveness (70 times 7) Propitiation: Jesus Takes Your Place The All-Encompassing Grace of God POWERFUL QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE: "Love is God in motion." - Harry Lloyd "Would you rather have unconditional love from one person or two or three? You're getting it from all three persons of the Trinity." - Dr. Alex Lloyd "The experiential difference between this and what you might call the natural way of living... it is amazing how the trend of my life has been consistently upwards in the ways that really matter most." - Harry Lloyd "Guilt and shame don't come from God, Jesus, or the Holy Spirit—at least not if you're committed to them in your life." - Dr. Alex Lloyd WORD STUDY INSIGHTS (from Harry): Glory (Old Testament): Refers to a substance of glory Glory (New Testament): God's definition of what value is, how it's structured, where it comes from—the hierarchy behind every kind of value Light: The physical manifestation of God's glory or presence Love: "God in motion"—the mechanism that underlies everything Grace: Literally means "unearned favor" IMPORTANT CLARIFICATIONS: - This doesn't mean life becomes problem-free—there is no path without pain, suffering, and sin on this earth - God won't take away your free will, even at 99 years old - These gifts lead to "lesser and lesser" problems over time, not elimination - Based on God's will for your specific situation (He sometimes uses health problems as "bumper guards") - You shouldn't accept this on Dr. Alex and Harry's say-so—Harry seriously studied atheism and apologetics before committing PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Dr. Alex suggests focusing on what God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit DO rather than dwelling on sin, guilt, shame, and selfishness. Consider writing down these gift lists and reviewing them regularly to shift your focus from the negative to the abundant blessings you already have.

If anyone is in Christ, that person is a new creation. The old has gone, the new is here! — 2 Corinthians 5:17 Becoming a new creation in Christ is one of the most beautiful transformations we can experience. But it doesn't always feel like a sudden change, does it? I've found that, at times, I don't always see the immediate evidence of my transformation, and that can lead to discouragement. It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking, “I'm still the same person I was before.” But here's the truth: When you come to faith in Christ, you are a new creation, and that is the beginning of a radical shift. The old ways, the old habits, the old mindset—these things begin to fade away. You are not just improving on who you were; you are becoming someone entirely new. I remember when I first came to this realization. I was trying to change my behavior to match what I thought Christ wanted from me. But it wasn't until I embraced my new identity in him that I started to experience real change. Instead of striving in my own strength, I learned to rest in the truth that Christ had already made me new. Embrace your new identity in Christ. When you're tempted to go back to old patterns, remind yourself that the old has passed away. The new has come, and you are a new creation in him! Lord, thank you for making me a new creation in Christ. Help me to fully embrace my new identity in you and to live out the transformation you have begun in me. Amen.

The conversation centers on a newly published book by Janet Willis, titled What on Earth Is Heaven Like? The New Creation and the New Jerusalem?—a work the host calls the best Bible prophecy book written in the past year. He emphasizes his strong endorsement by noting that he personally wrote the foreword to the book and believes it offers a well-researched, biblically grounded contribution to eschatology (end-times theology). What Is “New Creation Premillennialism”? The host explains that “new creationism” is becoming more popular, but it is often expressed in different ways. He contrasts two commonly held positions with his own view. View 1: “No Historical Millennium” New Creationism One perspective he mentions is a form of millennialism that denies a historical millennial period after Christ returns. In this view, when Jesus comes back, the New Jerusalem, new earth, and new heaven are fully realized immediately—without any intervening millennium. The host notes that while this approach affirms new creation realities, it rejects a distinct future era in which Christ rules the nations on earth. View 2: Traditional Premillennial Timing After the Millennium A second view comes from more standard premillennial interpretations. Many premillennialists place the new heavens, new earth, and New Jerusalem after the millennium. In other words, Christ returns, then the millennium occurs, and only afterward do the final new creation realities arrive in full form. The Host's Position: New Creation During the Millennium The host disagrees with both approaches and proposes what he labels New Creation Premillennialism: the belief that the new heavens, new earth, and New Jerusalem are established when Jesus returns and are experienced during the millennium, not before it and not after it. For him, the millennium is not merely a transitional footnote—it is the period when the New Jerusalem descends and the renewed creation is actively integrated into Christ's Davidic reign over the nations. Why the Details Matter: “Where” and “How” We Live With the Lord Drawing from his foreword, the host highlights a pastoral and devotional motivation for studying these themes. He references Paul's teaching that believers will “always be with the Lord” (from 1 Thessalonians), and observes that many Christians are content to stop there. But he argues Scripture invites deeper understanding: Where will believers live with the Lord? How will life function? What will believers be doing? What is the relationship between God's people and the nations? To illustrate the point, he compares this future-focused study to how intensely people research temporary homes—spending hours browsing listings and visiting houses they may live in for only a few decades. If people can be that invested in short-term housing, he suggests, believers should be far more eager to explore what the Bible reveals about an eternal home with Jesus on earth. Janet Willis' Book: Three Major Contributions The host argues that Willis' book doesn't merely recycle familiar prophecy talking points. Instead, he claims it reshapes the discussion by challenging long-held assumptions and weaving biblical data into a coherent narrative of the millennial kingdom. He highlights three specific strengths.

Ezekiel's City and Revelation's New Jerusalem One of the most significant theological claims highlighted is Willis' argument that Ezekiel's millennial city is the same city John describes in Revelation as the New Jerusalem. The host calls this identification crucial, because it strongly affects the timing of the city's descent and its role in the millennium. He mentions he devoted an entire previous episode to defending this connection and intends to continue expanding the argument. The post New Creation Premillennialism appeared first on Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner.
In this soulful and contemplative sixth episode in the series, Beloved: The Journey of Leaving Egypt, Entering Wilderness, and Awakening as New Creation, our host, Donald E. Coleman, partners with listeners to see the wilderness not as abandonment but as God's transforming room—a place where silence reveals truth and stillness gives birth to identity.Drawing from Hosea, the Gospels, and the contemplative tradition, Donald describes the wilderness as the inner space where God removes false identities, heals deep wounds, and restores the soul to belovedness.If you've ever felt hidden, forgotten, or stripped of certainty, this episode will show you how God uses the desert to reveal who you truly are."Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.
