"The opening day of the Tenth General Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene, June 16, 1940, was a memorable one in the annals of the church. The blessing of God was unmistakably present from the opening song until the closing benediction. The morning communion service with Doctor Goodwin's message lifted us to heights of spiritual fellowship with God and with one another. Doctor Williams' characteristically stirring message in the afternoon was a challenge to better things for the days to come. The evening sermon was delivered by Dr. J. B. Chapman. His subject was "Christ and the Bible." It was an eloquent, scholarly and inspiring message that seemed to electrify the congregation of almost 6,000 listeners that crowded the great auditorium. Requests and pleas for the publication of the sermon were made both to the speaker and to the Publishing House executives. Therefore the message is now available, for the benefit of many who heard it and wish to read it as well as hear it, also for the many thousands who were not privileged to attend the service but who through reading this address will be led to a deeper love for the Bible and the Christ of the Bible."

On this episode listen to an audio production of John Wesley's sermon from Matthew 7:15-20. This sermon was accessed from the Wesley Center Online and was edited by Kristen Chamberlain with corrections by Ryan Danker and George Lyons for the Wesley Center for Applied Theology. The Wesley Center Online website is a collection of historical and scholarly resources about the Wesleyan Tradition, theology, Christianity, and the Nazarene church hosted by the Wesley Center for Applied Theology at Northwest Nazarene University. We are thankful for the work of Richard Thompson in overseeing this repository. In this message, “Upon Our Lord's Sermon on the Mount: Discourse Twelve,” we encounter a powerful message and warning to Christians for every generation. Wesley unpacks Jesus' warning in Matthew 7:15-20: "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits." Wesley challenges us to discern truth from deception, cautioning against leaders who appear righteous yet lead others astray with teachings that veer from Christ's narrow path of humility, love, and holiness. He calls for careful examination of the fruits of their lives and doctrines, urging listeners to hold fast to the true way of salvation and bring all teachings to the test of Scripture.   Lifelong Learning Code: 80890 Click here to learn about Lifelong Learning   *this episode was created with the help of AI*

— It is believed that humans have been using psychedelic drugs since the dawn of civilization. In Western culture, however, only recently has science begun to understand how psychedelics may aid trauma healing. Whenever something terrible happens to you or you're in a harmful place for a long time, you are traumatized. Trauma can occur when you experience something terrible. In some cases, trauma develops when you are subjected to an extended period of harmful circumstances. It affects both the mind and body. Traditionally, mental health treatment has focused on talk therapy and medication, interventions that are often quite effective at relieving psychological distress. However, many mental health practitioners are now working with psychedelics and transforming their perspective on healing trauma. As a result, psychedelic treatment may provide a less painful means of accessing the interface between the unconscious and the body.  Valeria interviews Megan Salar  — She is the author of  “EMDR For Dummies and The EMDR Workbook for Trauma and PTSD: Skills to Manage Triggers, Move Beyond Traumatic Memories, and Take Back Your Life.

I am convinced that security and joy are connected. So, what do I mean by joy? From my perspective, joy is a SETTLED GLADNESS— rooted in finding our security and our identity in God, who is trustworthy, faithful and unchanging. But this whole thing isn't easy right? So, in today's sermon, we are talking about the invitation to travel light so that we can make room for God to bring deliverance, peace, righteousness, justice, light and joy in ways we don't expect. This sermon was originally preached at Northwest Nazarene University in the winter of 2022 as a part of their Advent series. —— I'd love to connect with you throughout the week on instagram @carlycommunicates.

We want to feel our worth. We want to know that we are loved, significant, and valued. We desire this, but because there are so many messages competing for our attention, we can easily forget that we are worthy of love. In this unexpected passage in Matthew, we will realize that Jesus invites us to be a part of the family, frees us from what is holding us back, and gives us hope for the future. Through all of this, Jesus will remind us that we have great worth.

What do you love about your faith community, and how can you make that experience something others can stumble upon? In part 2 of our conversation with Danny Atkins, he will remind us that missional living looks like taking the rhythms of what we already do in our faith communities and making them public. Relocating, rather than re-strategizing, will bring us into friendship with others who can experience the hope of the Jesus through our lives together. —— Danny Atkins currently serves as an executive pastor at Nampa College Church and as a part-time professor at Northwest Nazarene University. He is currently working on a PhD at Nazarene Theological College, studying Paul's theology of mission. Prior to his current ministry context in Nampa, he served for five years in Germany as a missionary with the Church of the Nazarene. That experience helped shape his calling to help the church be a missionary in its own context. Danny loves to spend time with his wife and daughter, and together they love to be outdoors and travel to new places.

For those of us who are Jesus followers, we often hear the call to share the Gospel and to live on mission, but we may ask ourselves, “How do we do that?” In this 2 part conversation that we're starting today, my good friend, Pastor Danny Atkins is here to remind us that “we're not trying to take something from God to people. Instead we're trying to put flesh on what God is already doing.” So, friends. You can throw your check-lists and attempts at strategic plans out the window. God isn't asking for our plans. God is inviting us to participate. I think that is pretty exciting and freeing… and I can't wait to hear all of the insights and encouragement that Danny has to share with us. —— Danny Atkins currently serves as an executive pastor at Nampa College Church and as a part-time professor at Northwest Nazarene University.

It is the first of two contributions Brent is making to that series. In the Spring his volume on the sacraments will also be released. It is a wonderful series, a very helpful book, and (as you would expect from two old friends) a very fun and thoughtful conversation.

They discuss the recruiting process, the transfer portal, and the differences between different levels of college baseball. Matt emphasizes the importance of considering factors beyond getting drafted when choosing a college program. He also shares his insights on developing pitchers and the value of command.Key Takeaways:Only a small percentage of Division One players get drafted, so it's important to consider other factors when choosing a college program.Division Two and junior college players are increasingly being recruited by Division One programs.It's important to be realistic about your abilities and consider all levels of college baseball, not just Division One.Command is a crucial skill for pitchers, and it can be developed through consistent practice and repetition.Confidence is key to developing command, and getting on the mound more frequently can help build that confidence.Quotes:"We all want to play at the highest level, but there are many other variables that are more important than getting drafted." - Matt Hollod"Confidence equals command.

Voices In My Head (The Rick Lee James Podcast) Episode 484: Brent Peterson - The Back Side of the Cross   Amazon Affiliate Buy Link: https://amzn.to/3BSV9tT The Back Side of the Cross: An Atonement Theology for the Abused and Abandoned Leclerc, Diane; Peterson, Brent Citation (Chicago Style): Leclerc, Diane, and Peterson, Brent. The Back Side of the Cross: An Atonement Theology for the Abused and Abandoned. Cascade Books, an imprint of Wipf and Stock Publishers, 2022. Kindle edition. Book Description The cross has always been portrayed as the means of salvation and forgiveness for sinners, but does it have anything to say to those who have been sinned against? This book shows that the atonement of Christ has powerful potential to speak to those who have been wronged, especially those who have been abused and abandoned in countless ways—those who cower at the back side of the cross wondering if they are included. As victims of various kinds of abuse are beginning to come out of the shadows in cultural conversation and in the context of the church, The Back Side of the Cross is a timely book for several audiences. It is thoroughly rigorous and will interest theologians and their students; it also offers a very practical section for pastors and those who want to care for the wounded; and it can even reach survivors themselves as it offers true hope in the urgency of such real pain. About the Co-Author Brent Peterson is Dean of the College of Theology and Christian Ministries and Professor of Theology at Northwest Nazarene University. He is a leading voice in the Wesleyan tradition on the sacraments, and founded the Wesleyan Liturgical Society.

Today's conversation is a special one. My friend, Dr. Mike Kipp, is here to share with us, and let me tell you what… I am so thankful for this conversation. Mike is a devoted follower of Jesus and an avid wake surfer. He loves his family deeply, he is a beloved professor of practical theology and someone who dives in to love on the often forgotten people in our community… And…. Mike has gone through some really tough times. In fact, he went through a time several years ago when he felt like God was absent… Yes. A leader in the church felt this way and I am just so grateful that he is willing to share his story, because oftentimes we feel like we can't voice our hardships or speak up about our crises of faith. Today, Mike will share what his season of darkness was like and how he sifted his way through with vulnerability, authenticity, and the faith and love of his community. We can make it through the dark, but we can't do it alone. So, as we dive into this episode, I hope you are reminded that there are others who are with you on the journey. I also hope that you are reminded today that you are seen and known by God…. The God who doesn't run from suffering, but runs toward it for our sake. Mike Kipp has served young people in various roles for the past 30 years in California, Kansas and Idaho. He's been a youth pastor, professor, pastor of intergenerational connections and public school board member. For the past 18 years he has taught at Northwest Nazarene University and is a professor of practical theology. Mike has degrees from Cal Poly SLO, Nazarene Theological Seminary and Fuller Theological Seminary. Mike is also the author of the several works, including his latest book, Making Room: The Purpose and Practice of Youth Ministry. Mike is married to Sandy and they have two kids, Spencer and McKenna, with whom they love to adventure. Mike loves the academic calendar because all summer he gets to mountain bike, camp, wake surf, and read the daily newspaper with a cup of coffee.

Today, my Pastor, Scott Daniels, is on the podcast. Scott is one of the most well-respected theologians in our denomination (and beyond) globally. He is also a beloved college professor, a deeply invested pastoral leader, and a mega sports enthusiast. I am so grateful for Pastor Scott's investment in my life and ministry… As a young leader, trying to figure out what it looks like to be obedient to God's call on my life, it has been amazing to have mentors, like Scott, as examples in my life, but also voices of encouragement. As you will hear, Scott has served in a variety of leadership roles. Leadership can bring pressure, loneliness, and discouragement from critics… but those themes don't have to be the dominant narratives. Today, Pastor Scott shares with us about his journey… and how he has stayed rooted in the knowledge of God's love and God's best for him — which has allowed him not to cave to the unhealthy pressures of leadership. Dr. Scott Daniels is senior pastor at Nampa College Church of the Nazarene and Pastoral Scholar in Residence at Northwest Nazarene University. Scott has also pastored in Pasadena, California and Richardson, Texas and served as the dean of School of Theology at Azusa Pacific University and Seminary. He is a frequent guest speaker and lecturer at churches, camp meetings, and college campuses. He received his MDiv and PhD in theology and ethics from Fuller Theological Seminary. A contributorto several books, journals, and magazines, he is the author of The First 100 Days: A Pastor'sGuide; Seven Deadly Spirits: The Message of Revelation's Letters for Today's Church; and TheCycle of Victorious Living: Commit, Trust, Delight and Rest in Jesus Christ. His most recent book is Embracing Exile: Living Faithfully as God's Unique People in the World. Most importantly, Scott is married to Debbie and they have four adult children… and a very well loved doodle named Henley.

On the forty-fifth episode of All Heart with Paul Cardall, Paul is joined by Cathedral of the Rockies - Amity Campus pastor Benjamin Cremer, a gifted writer and teacher. Paul and Ben discuss Ben's journey to become a pastor, a brief history of Christianity and the cultural divisions in America. He believes the divisions are a result of people in the Church who abuse power, money, and a desire for control. Ben discusses authority, the Holy Spirit, and the longing believers have for community and to trust again in authority, though they've been hurt by the Church. Ben believes we need a Christian America that is Christ-like and embodies the patient, forgiving, merciful, humble fruits of the spirit.  All Heart with Paul Cardall is sponsored by J.D. Netto's novel, The Broken Miracle, a 2-part fictional series with characters and real events inspired by the life of Paul Cardall, a world-renowned pianist born with only half a heart.

Welcome to episode sixty-seven of New Creation Conversations. I'm excited to have a second conversation today with my good friend Dr. Michael Lodahl. Mike is Professor of Theology and World Religions at Point Loma Nazarene University. Mike is an alum of Northwest Nazarene University, has an MDiv from Nazarene Theological Seminary, and a PhD from Emory University. Mike has written extensively on narrative theology, holiness, and the relationship of Christian and Islamic faiths. Our conversation is centered on his most recent book Praying with Jesus: Meditations on the Lord's Prayer – published by The Foundry Press.Mike is one of my favorite people to chat with anytime, but I really did love this conversation on prayer. His reflections on the Lord's Prayer – and what we learn about the nature of character of God from it – are helpful. But I love that The Foundry has not only published the book but has turned it into a resource for pastors for preaching and have created resources for children and youth to participate in the series as well. It is well done, and I know it will be a blessing to those congregations who journey together through it. Mike is a great storyteller and a rich and thoughtful theologian. My challenge in my conversations with Mike is keeping it to an hour. I think you will love his reflections on prayer – and I get a couple of good thoughts in this week also. Thanks for leaning into these New Creation Conversations. 

Dr. Joel Pearsall is the president of Northwest Nazarene University, a Christian, liberal arts university in Nampa, Idaho. As with any educational institution, Dr. Pearsall has to run a university and continue to maintain the highest standards of teaching and learning while at the same time navigating the need to maintain its founding Christian values.  Despite being a community within a community, the university community has not been isolated from the challenges that our world and the United States have had to face over the last 3 years: political and social disruption; a global pandemic that, for a time, forced education into a fully virtual format; new testing protocols; social distancing; hybrid work and teaching spaces. All these together have had an effect on how we as a community redefine function in the new reality and for institutions of higher learning the effect has been complicated and challenging. Dr. Pearsall shares his leadership lessons while leading in these difficult times. #NNU#abovethenoise24abovethenoise24@gmail.comwww.nnu.edu

Have you ever felt like there were invisible barriers preventing you from achieving your goals or getting to where you wanted to be in life? For many of us, these barriers are the result of traumatic experiences that have negatively impacted the way we view ourselves, others, and the world around us.  While various therapeutic modalities seek to help individuals overcome trauma, a technique called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) may deliver powerful and efficient results. In Episode 93 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Megan McQuary – a Certified EMDR Clinician and Trainer, as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and an Advanced Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor – shares the following: The goals of EMDR and an overview of how it works, including the key things that Megan focuses on when conducting an EMDR session A metaphor to help understand how your brain operates, and why it can be difficult to think logically or make decisions effectively when you are overwhelmed by stress or other negative emotions  The power of bilateral stimulation and how it is used in EMDR At the end of the episode, Megan guides us through a guided visualization using bilateral stimulation. This empowering session is designed to help you reflect on how far you've come in life and discover where you are in relation to the achievement of your goals.  Megan McQuary formerly owned and operated one of the largest treatment centers for substance abuse and trauma in Southeast Idaho, which was voted best in practice for 2019. Her trainings have helped thousands of clinicians across the U.S. get the most out of EMDR, trauma and addiction based skills and practices. She has been invited to train internationally at the International Society of Addiction Medicine in India, the International Conference on Addiction Research and Therapy in Amsterdam and at the Psicologia Institute of Italy. Megan has extensively been trained on the use of EMDR as a treatment protocol and uses EMDR in her practice to achieve improved outcomes with a broad spectrum of clients in the areas of trauma, abuse, attachment and substance abuse. She is an expert witness at the State and Federal level for her expertise in areas surrounding trauma. Megan is the author of EMDR Workbook for Trauma and PTSD: Skills to Manage Triggers, Move Beyond Traumatic Memories, and Take Back Your Life set to be released by New Harbinger Publications in late 2022. She earned her master's in Clinical Social Work from Northwest Nazarene University in 2011 and is an active member of the International Society of Addiction Medicine and the National Association of Social Workers. She currently owns and operates her own Counseling, Consulting and Training Business and is passionate about genuinely changing the landscape of trauma treatment through an authentic, hands on perspective, that she has uniquely made her own.   To learn more about Megan and EMDR, visit her website at https://thementalsurvivalist.com.  To subscribe to The MINDset Game® podcast, visit www.TheMINDsetGame.com.

Welcome to episode sixty-one of New Creation Conversations. I'm very excited in today's conversation to be joined by my friend and colleague from both NNU and here at College Church, Dr. Diane Leclerc. Diane has served Northwest Nazarene University for 24 years as Professor of Historical Theology. She is an alum of Eastern Nazarene College. She has a Master of Divinity degree from Nazarene Theological Seminary and another Master's Degree in Philosophy and PhD in Theological and Religious Studies from Drew University.Diane has co-edited a series of books with Dr. Mark Maddix – Essential Beliefs, Essential Church, Pastoral Practices, and Spiritual Formation (each articulating a Wesleyan theological perspective in those areas). She has written one of the best summaries and introductions to Wesleyan-Holiness theology out there in her book, Discovering Christian Holiness: The Heart of Wesleyan-Holiness Theology.We talk about all of those works, but our primary focus is on her soon-to-be-released book (co-authored with [friend-of-the-podcast] Dr. Brent Peterson), The Back Side of the Cross: An Atonement Theology for the Abused and Abandoned (published by Cascade Press). As you will hear, this has been a book that has been percolating in Diane's life and thoughts for a decade or more, and it is wonderful that it is finally going to come out now. I had a chance to read a pre-publication edition of the book, and it has not only reshaped my imagination in so many ways related to the atonement and the significance of the cross, but it has helped me know how to extend transforming grace to those who have suffered at the hands of others. I'm biased, but I do think Diane and Brent's book has the chance to be deeply transformative in the lives of many people and will change the way those of you who listening and are pastoring will preach in the future. I'm thankful for this new book and the chance to bring this conversation to you.

Welcome to episode fifty-five of New Creation Conversations. In today's conversation I'm delighted to be joined by Dr. Philip Zimmermann. Philip is the co-founder and pastor of Church in Action in Germany. Born in Frankfurt, Philip is known for strategic thinking and creative problem solving. He is a social entrepreneur, a pastor, and a church planter who has started and led several churches, non-profits, and businesses.Philip is an ordained elder in the Church of the Nazarene. He received a Bachelor of Arts in Religion from European Nazarene College, a Master of Arts in Spiritual formation from Northwest Nazarene University, and a Doctorate of Strategic Leadership from Regent University. When he has the space, Philip teaches university courses in leadership and spiritual formation and speaks at leadership conferences around the world. He has written two books: Problem Solving and Creativity and Time Management. Recently, Philip was in town, and my wife (Debbie) and I had the privilege of attending a seminar he was leading on the mind shift (or change in imagination) necessary for the church to reach an increasingly post-Christian culture. The seminar was challenging and insightful, and so I was excited to get a chance to sit down and have a conversation with Philip about the Church in Action and what he is learning about the mission of the church in this historical moment. One very fun aspect of this conversation is that we were in the same room together. It took me fifty-five of these conversations to finally have one that wasn't on Zoom but face-to-face. I loved not only the chance to spend an hour or so with Philip, but I also came away excited and filled with hope for the future of not only my own denomination but the global Body of Christ as it will be led by young leaders like Philip. I think you will not only learn a lot from our conversation, but you will also be encouraged as well. Thanks for joining me on these weekly journeys toward the new creation. Here's my conversation with Dr. Philip Zimmermann.

The others are two works that are part of the Wesleyan Theology Series: the first on The Church and another on The Sacraments. Brent and I have known each other since we were kids growing up in the same church in Seattle and I continue to learn so much from him about the formative nature of worship and the way our theology is not just learned in our heads but developed in us through our bodies.
