Podcasts about new creations

One has been thinking all week about those precious little girls from Camp Mystic. There's also a pastoral situation or two in which sharp suffering seems to have been "imposed" on people I love. Why and How and ... What? I had a kind of visitation late one night this week. It came initially from ... Van Morrison. His song "Into the Mystic", from 1970, started to play inside my mind. Then a phrase came down: And Yet! I was looking at all the tragedy, regression and loss -- really seeing it and feeling it... And Yet. Then something else happened: A 'Republic Picture' from 1949 came across my screen. It was a Western I had never seen before but it stars Marie Windsor, so it had to be... at least... watchable. But then something began to come clear: the movie came to me from, well, Heaven Above (Peter Sellers, even). Seriously, the ending of Republic Pictures' Hellfire (1949) was intended to help us. It was made (back then) to help us (now). It embodied And Yet. The Christian response to darkest tragedy is probably not explanation or interpretation, but rather superimposition. It's impossible to explain away a certain reality, let's say. And yet what happened is not the whole reality. There is another reality. You might almost say, there are two realities. But isn't this true of our life histories, even of our personalities? The Old Creation is alive and potent. The New Creation is eternal and more potent. See what you think. Hope you'll maybe try it on.

In today's Spiritual Foundation Episode, I talk about Galatians 6: 1-16. I share how we are called to community, not to be self-centered but rather to be strengthened to be other-centered. I also share how we all come into each other's lives for a reason, as they come into ours.   Show Notes and Resources.

THIS EPISODE In this episode, Rob and Vinnie examine Colossians 1:15-20. They examine how this beautiful poem is constructed to help us understand its meaning. What is the New Creation, and how is Christ the Firstborn over it?  And you gotta see what Vinnie is wearing.

NEW CREATION: The End of the Story - Ps. Greg Johnson by

This week, we share a sermon offered by Rev. Bill Haley back in 2009 on Ephesians 2. Bill seeks to demonstrate the beauty and grandeur of Paul's vision of Christ's salvation and of the new humanity made possible in Jesus.Explore the Full Archive of Bill's Sermonsinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the show

Bearing the image of God looks like something. If you've accepted Jesus as Lord, you haven't just been mended, you've been made new—recreated to reveal God's nature to the world. But how do we know we're truly fulfilling our call to represent Him? In this thought-provoking message, Bill Johnson invites us to examine our lives through the lens of our responsibility as image-bearers. Being made in His image is so much more than an identity statement. It's a call to reflect His righteousness and goodness in how we live, love, relate, and lead. What happens when our choices fall outside His lordship? What becomes possible when we fully surrender our opinions, preferences, and actions to Him? This message will stir you to release what holds you back and embrace what's needed to represent the Father's heart well. Watch and be encouraged to live as a true image-bearer, revealing His nature to the world around you.

Haleh Shoa, founder of Picturli, on intentional digital preservation of memories, both for the individual but also in Business. The former advertising executive who has led global brands such as Apple, Infinity, Nissan and Ritz Carlton through the analogue to digital transition, including spearheading transformation at Ogilvy LA, argues that digital asset management can curate a corporate legacy. Blending storytelling strategy and digital hygiene, she says, can help to preserve what matters most. #Business #Photography #Content

Crystal Rivers | Open Book | Jun 17, 2025 Your spiritual journey begins the moment you enter into covenant with God through Jesus Christ. This covenant isn't merely a transaction—it's the starting point of a transformative process designed to take you from spiritual infancy to full sonship. Understanding how sonship, priesthood, covenant, God's word, and the Holy Spirit work together is crucial for your spiritual development. ## The Foundation: You Are Spirit, Not Flesh You must first understand a fundamental truth: when you became a believer, you became a spiritual being. The Old Testament law was spiritual, but it was given to people who were spiritually dead—carnal beings who couldn't fulfill spiritual requirements. This is why the law failed to produce the righteousness God desired. However, through Christ, you've been given the Holy Spirit, enabling you to fulfill what the law demanded but couldn't accomplish in carnal humanity. The moment you received Christ, you entered a river of spiritual development. This river has one direction—toward the Father. Jesus declared He is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him. Your entire Christian journey is this movement toward the Father, guided by His word and His Spirit. ## Stages of Spiritual Growth Your spiritual development follows a pattern similar to natural growth. You begin as a spiritual baby, feeding on the milk of God's word—learning basic doctrines, understanding right from wrong, and developing spiritual discernment. During this stage, you may still exhibit carnal behaviors: envy, strife, quarreling, and divisions. These are evidence of spiritual immaturity, not spiritual death. As you continue in God's word and yield to the Holy Spirit, you progress through spiritual adolescence into young adulthood. Each stage requires you to put away childish things—malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and evil speaking. This isn't automatic; it requires conscious effort and daily practice. Eventually, you reach spiritual maturity where you become what Scripture calls a "son." In ancient Israel, though someone might be born into the priesthood, they couldn't function as a priest until they reached a certain age and maturity. Similarly, though you're born again into God's family, true sonship comes when you've gained the knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual authority of your Father. ## The New Creation Reality The most transformative truth you must embrace is found in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new." This isn't merely positional truth—it's your actual spiritual reality. When Christ died, you died with Him. When He was raised from the dead, you were raised with Him as a completely new creation. The old person who could be sick, defeated, fearful, and sinful is dead. You now possess the same resurrection life that flows through Christ. However, experiencing this reality requires more than intellectual understanding—it demands daily practice and declaration. You must exercise yourself in this truth until it becomes your conscious and subconscious reality. ## Moving Beyond Carnal Thinking One of the greatest obstacles to spiritual maturity is continuing to regard yourself and others "according to the flesh." This means viewing circumstances, challenges, and people through natural, worldly perspectives rather than spiritual truth. You must identify areas in your life where you still think and act like a natural person. Do you fear financial loss? Do you respond to sickness as if you're merely human? Do you harbor unforgiveness or operate in pride? These are areas where your flesh is still loud and your old nature appears alive. The prescription is clear: daily meditation on and declaration of your new creation identity. Just as someone might declare healing over sickness for years until it becomes reality, you must declare the truth of who you are in Christ until your mind, body, and circumstances align with spiritual truth. ## Practical Application Begin each day declaring: "I am in Christ. I am a new creation. Old things have passed away, and all things have become new." Don't wait for feelings to confirm this truth—feelings follow faith, not the other way around. Identify specific areas where you've been living according to flesh rather than spirit. Create a conscious plan to "eat up" these carnal strongholds, just as Joshua declared the giants in the Promised Land would be devoured rather than feared. Remember, the just shall live by faith. Your new creation identity isn't activated by emotions or circumstances—it's activated by your agreement with God's word through consistent, faith-filled declaration and action. The goal isn't merely to know these truths intellectually but to become them practically. As you exercise yourself in this reality, you'll move from glory to glory, eventually operating in the full authority and nature of your spiritual inheritance as a son of God. Your journey toward sonship isn't optional—it's your destiny. The word of God and the Holy Spirit are your guides, the covenant is your foundation, and your new creation identity is your present reality waiting to be fully experienced through faithful practice.

This week, we share our second-ever Soundings Seminar from back in 2014. Bill Haley (Coracle's Executive Director) and Soren Johnson (a Catholic ministry leader) discuss the full biblical gospel. Too often, we have been taught that “The Gospel” refers exclusively to Jesus' forgiving our sins and enabling us to go to heaven when we die. And while both of those are true and deeply important, Bill and Soren open up the even more beautiful and expansive reality of the coming Kingdom of God.View Our Full Archive of Soundings Seminarsinthecoracle.org  |  @inthecoracleSupport the show

The Christian life is not an automatic life. You don't receive Christ and instantly you are perfect; you have to renew your mind to conform to the spirit within you.

Alléluia. Êtes-vous prêts pour la parole ? Regardez 2 Corinthiens 4. Il est écrit « Si notre évangile est encore voilé, il l'est pour ceux qui périssent, pour les incrédules dont le Dieu de ce monde, c'est le diable, a aveuglé l'intelligence afin qu'ils ne voient pas briller l'éclat que...

Welcome to episode 204 of Grasp the Bible.  In this episode, we continue our three-week series on our identity in Christ.  Today, we explore the realities of our being a new creation, based on 2 Corinthians 5:17.  Key takeaways: When you come to faith in Christ, you don't just become a slightly improved version of your old self—you become a fundamentally different kind of being. We died with Christ, were buried with Christ, and were raised with Christ. This isn't something we're striving to accomplish; it's something that has already happened spiritually when we placed our faith in Jesus. Our progress in holiness is motivated by both who we already are and who we will ultimately become. Quotable: Becoming a new creation is not rehabilitation; it's resurrection. Application: Your old self is dead. That's a fact. Now live accordingly.  This is where many Christians get stuck. We look at our ongoing struggles and conclude, "Well, I must not really be a new creation yet. Maybe when I finally overcome this sin, then I'll be transformed." But this gets the order exactly backward. We don't behave our way into a new identity; we believe our way into new behavior.  So, how do we begin to live in light of our new creation reality? Let me suggest three practical steps:  First, know the truth. Spend time studying what Scripture says about your new identity in Christ.  Second, replace lies with truth. Identify the false narratives you've believed about yourself. Third, practice new creation habits.  Consciously give God access to your time, your thoughts, your relationships, and your resources.  Connect with us: Web site:  https://springbaptist.org Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/SBCKleinCampus (Klein Campus) https://www.facebook.com/SpringBaptist (Spring Campus) Need us to pray for you?  Submit your prayer request to https://springbaptist.org/prayer/  If you haven't already done so, please leave us a rating and review in your podcast provider. 

Do you ever wonder why some people who profess to be Christians are so different from others? Some live holy, clean, dedicated lives from the day they are saved until they die, while it is hard to tell others from the common sinners of the world. The answer to that question is that one is real and the other is not. They are either deceived or they are just plain hypocrites. The difference is one has been regenerated by the Spirit of God and the other has not. Those who are not regenerated are not saved, and have no hope whatsoever of heaven as long as they remain in that state.

Purpose and Values | Chris McGarvey

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 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. 4 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.” 5 And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” 22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, 25 and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there. 26 They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.22 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will worship him. 4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5 And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever.1.     Does the thought of eternity give you any anxiety? If so, in what way?2.     Does the physical nature of eternity (e.g. you having a resurrected body) make it seem more relatable?3.     Is it a comfort that all we do in faith goes with us into eternity? Can you imagine recognition without envy or competition?4.     Is seeing God's face, and him delighting in you, a compelling motivation for eternity? Why or why not?5.     What do you think reigning, resting and recreating might look like in the new heavens and earth?6.     What do you think needs to happen in eternity for every day to be better than the last?

Today, Pastor Beth Bramstedt speaks in week 7 of our series study of the book of Colossians. Our series is called "Beyond the Static" as we look to clear the noise of life and our world and listen to the voice of a loving God. Pastor Beth shared a heartfelt message about the significance of baptism, highlighting a recent testimony from Matt about his spiritual journey. Emphasizing the transformation that comes with accepting Christ, she explained that our old life is replaced by a new life hidden in Christ. She also encouraged the congregation to look upwards for discernment rather than inward or outward, focusing on things above and deepening their relationship with God through prayer, reading scripture, and community.  You can find the full sermon notes and other resources at our website.

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." 2 Corinthians 5:17

Bible Reading: Romans 8:28-29; 2 Corinthians 5:17-21Trey was excited because today Grandma was finally going to teach him how to make her famous molasses bread. As Dad dropped him off and waved goodbye, Trey could already taste the rich, fluffy bread and the salty crunch of toasted oats on top.Grandma welcomed Trey with a hug and led him into the kitchen. They used sign language to communicate because Trey was deaf. Grandma signed "flour," "molasses," "yeast," and "spoon." Trey scurried around the kitchen to find the ingredients while Grandma started mixing. As they added more and more ingredients, a dark and gooey dough formed. Grandma placed a towel over the dough bowl before gently setting it in a sunny part of the kitchen."Why doesn't the dough look like bread yet?" Trey signed.Grandma smiled. "The dough must rise before it goes in the oven."That made sense to Trey. After an hour and a half, they checked the dough. It was double the size and very poofy. Grandma punched down the dough before laying it on the pan and putting it in the oven.Trey frowned. The dough still didn't look like bread. It didn't look tasty at all. Did Grandma forget something?He asked her this, and she replied, "Just you wait and see."When Grandma took the tray out of the oven, Trey was nervous. But the bread looked perfect, smelled perfect, and tasted even better than perfect.As they ate, Grandma said, "You know, making bread reminds me of what it's like to become God's new creation."Trey shrugged, confused. Grandma continued. "Before we put our trust in Jesus, we are like raw, scattered ingredients--we don't have a purpose. We are controlled by our wrong desires and deserve death because of our sin. But Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross, and rose from the dead so we could have new life and live with Him forever. Jesus gives us a purpose--to love Him and others and become more like Him. Just like the dough needs the oven to become bread, we need Jesus to be saved from sin and be made new."Trey nodded eagerly and took Grandma's hand to pray. Somehow this seemed even better than Grandma's famous molasses bread.–Hannah ChungHow About You?Have you ever baked something and wondered, "How do these random ingredients make something so delicious?" Without the oven, the dough would be raw and inedible. Similarly, we can only have true life by trusting in Jesus. When you trust Him to save you, God immediately makes you new! Trust in Jesus today and experience a new life of purpose.

Do you know who you really are in Christ? In this Sunday's message, "The Real You is the New You", Pastor Josh unpacks the powerful truth of 2 Corinthians 5:17—that if anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation. God is good, His Word is true, and it's in His Word that we discover both who He is and who we truly are. Our identity is no longer shaped by our past, but defined by what God declares is true. In Christ, the real you is made new. Recorded at Hope Church in Springfield, MO.

Through clear, biblical teaching and personal insight, Will exposes how poor religious practices can distort the gospel and weigh down believers with shame, fear, and obligation. But the message doesn't stop there. This sermon shifts gears into the liberating truth of the resurrection and the arrival of the New Creation. What does it actually mean to be a Christian? What does true loyalty to Christ look like beyond rules, checklists, or cultural Christianity? If you've ever felt disillusioned by religion or burdened by trying to “earn” your place with God, this sermon offers hope, clarity, and the freedom found in the risen Jesus.
