Podcasts about obeying

Patrick takes the microphone to wrestle with questions about church authority, faith, and conscience, addressing misconceptions about Catholic teaching on salvation and exploring the tension between so-called legalism and a genuine relationship with God, using analogies from family rules to traffic laws. He fields raw listener dilemmas, from marital struggles to the odd presence of a Buddha statue, and traces the roots of priestly ordination through history, threading wisdom from saints and scripture through each exchange. In every moment, he leans into the messiness, persistent in pursuit of clarity and truth. Ken (email) – It’s sad to hear the bad information you gave to a little kid (00:48) Email - What's the best way to respond to a "non-denominational" (which just sounds like another domination) Christian who gives the usual relationship vs religion/legalism argument against the Catholic Church? Sylvia (email) - Is it okay according to my church to separate from my husband of 26 years after 10+ years of no intimacy, his suspected cheating and possible attraction to men that disturbs my close relationship with God, when I only stayed for financial reasons, am tired of the lies, and now prioritize my faith at age 57? (19:31) James (email) – What should I do with this Budda statue? Ceci (email) - Is it true that each priest is able to trace their ordination lineage back to the Apostles? (39:30) Martin (email) - What is the higher good? Obeying one's conscience (and who gets to decide at what point the conscience is well-formed??) or obeying authority? I am thinking right now in particular of the situation with the SSPX.

Field of Dreams: Listening and Obeying the Holy SpiritHave you ever felt a strong prompting or a thought you just couldn't shake, but worried people would think you were crazy if you actually followed through?On this week's episode of The UNPACKIN' it Podcast, hosts Bryce Johnson and Trip Smith unpack the classic 1989 sports movie, Field of Dreams, starring Kevin Costner.They dive into the iconic story of Ray Kinsella clearing out his livelihood to build a baseball field based on a voice he couldn't ignore.While it's a classic baseball movie with a heartwarming story, it also gives us a beautiful metaphor for faith, vision, and listening to the Holy Spirit.We draw powerful parallels to our walk with God. How do we recognize God's voice? How do we test our promptings to ensure they line up with Scripture? And what happens when we finally step out in wild, courageous obedience?We also share some incredible behind-the-scenes movie trivia (including a couple of very famous Hollywood extras!) and discuss why this film still moves audiences decades later.Drop a comment below: What is a step of faith you know God is whispering for you to take right now?⚽ A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR: UPWARD SPORTSThe World Cup has been awesome!

Carissa Véliz is an Associate Professor in Philosophy at the Institute for Ethics in AI, a Fellow at Hertford College at the University of Oxford, and the author of multiple books, including, most recently, Prophecy: Prediction, Power, and the Fight for the Future, from Ancient Oracles to AI. Greg and Carissa discuss Carissa's newest work, where she links prediction to surveillance and argues that forecasts are speech acts that intervene in the world, often becoming self-fulfilling or self-defeating. She says humans seek prophecy to relieve anxiety, but this grants power to predictors and can undermine autonomy, democracy, and fairness, especially via opaque algorithms, social-credit-style control, and pattern-matching decisions like lending.  Carissa urges transparent, contestable criteria, skepticism about incentives behind predictions, and treating unwanted forecasts as invitations to defy rather than “obey in advance.” Their conversation critiques utilitarianism and effective altruism for relying on long-term prediction, discusses fatalism and moral luck, and advocates resilience, scenario planning, Epicurean agency, and literature as an antidote to doomscrolling, shrinking attention, and AI-driven cultural convergence. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: When forecasts become commands 25:28: Instead of obeying predictions by believing them uncritically, I suggest that we interpret them as invitations for defiance. And maybe some predictions you do not want to defy. Maybe some predictions you're like, “Okay, yeah, I like that future, and I'm on board.” But with the ones that you don't like, I think the correct attitude is, “No, we're not. No, we're not. That's not where we're going.” Can predictions bend reality? 25:34: When we believe that prediction uncritically, when we listen to it as if it were a fact, because grammatically it sounds like a fact, what we are doing is obeying implicitly in the sense of Timothy Snyder, of obeying in advance before we are issued an explicit command. When we interpret predictions as facts, we implicitly obey in advance. Obeying in advance 23:54: When we believe that prediction uncritically, when we listen to it as if it were a fact, because grammatically it sounds like a fact, what we are doing is obeying implicitly in the sense of Timothy Snyder, of obeying in advance before we are issued an explicit command. When we interpret predictions as facts, we implicitly obey in advance. Show Links: Recommended Resources: Pythia Bayesian Inference Robert K.

In this episode of Grow Yourself, Kevin McNulty sits down with Kyle Merrick for a powerful conversation about identity, belonging, adoption, authenticity, and the hidden ways people lose themselves trying to fit into the world around them.Kyle shares how growing up adopted shaped his search for identity and why so many people unconsciously become versions of themselves they never intentionally chose. This conversation explores emotional honesty, social conditioning, approval-seeking, individuality, self-awareness, and the courage it takes to think for yourself.This is not about rebellion for the sake of chaos. It's about consciously questioning inherited identity long enough to discover who you truly are underneath it all.Anarchy For A Day: What Happens When You Stop Obeying Who You Were Told To Be

In today's message, Pastor Kerrick shares about how the Holy Spirit desires to operate in your life.Study Questions From The Message For You To Answer In Your Journal:In what ways might you be giving God what is left over in your time, finances, or energy rather than your first and best?What does it mean to walk in the spirit of seeing and knowing, and how can you cultivate a lifestyle of receiving visions, dreams, and inner promptings from the Holy Spirit?

The idea of obedience brings complex reactions for many of us, perhaps stirring fears of legalism or a sense of anxiety. But when coupled with love – our love for God and God's love for us – obedience to Jesus is the only way of true freedom and joy. Obedience to Jesus draws us into a life of personal transformation, deep and healthy relationships, and active participation in God's work in the world.   Join us as we finish our four-part “Spread the Love” series on the ECV mission statement by considering what it means to “love and obey Jesus Christ in all things.”- Series Description - For God so loved the world, he sent Jesus. As God does, we do, too. Our call is to spread the love as sent ones, empowered by the Holy Spirit. Join us for Spread the Love, a four week series beginning this week, as we explore ECV's mission statement as an invitation to join God in bringing God's kingdom of love to the world around us.ECV's Mission: The Elm City Vineyard exists to call all people to revolutionary lives of action through Spirit-empowered communities that love and obey Jesus Christ in all things.

Every six years God promises a bumper crop so Israel will let the land have a sabbath in the seventh year. Obeying this command requires no faith - the farmer can see the sixth year bounty. If he plants on the seventh year, he is taking more than God is offering. Such ill-gotten wealth creates all sorts of societal problems.

The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/050726.cfmFather Daniel Klimek, PhD, explains that the Council of Jerusalem established that faith in Christ, not painstaking adherence to the Mosaic Law, is the path to salvation, while clarifying that moral works remain essential as a fruit of that living faith. Father Daniel contrasts the secular view of God's commandments as unnecessarily restrictive chains with the biblical reality that obeying Christ is an act of love that brings complete joy and human flourishing. By remaining in this relationship of love, believers discover that true freedom is found, not by ignoring the law, but in honoring and obeying the Father who desires their happiness.⭐️ Support our Ministries: https://www.thedivinemercy.org/donate?source=pod✝️ Explore Divine Mercy on Divine Mercy Plus! https://divinemercyplus.org/?source=pod⛪️ Plan Your Visit to the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy!https://www.shrineofdivinemercy.org/?source=podFollow Us on Social Media!   

eries: God's Promises, Our JourneyTitle: "Will you trust God or take control?"Scripture: Genesis 22:1-24 NIV Hebrews 11:17-19James 1:13-15John 1:29Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTOUTLINECONCLUSIONDISCUSSION QUESTIONSNOTESYOUTUBE DESCRIPTIONMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”OPENING STORY/ILLUSTRATIONControl vs. TrustImagine you're riding in the passenger seat while someone else is driving…Not just anyone—your spouse, your friend, maybe even your child learning to drive.You're coming up to a busy intersection…You see the light turning yellow…And what do you instinctively do?You reach for the imaginary brake pedal.You lean forward.You tense up.Why?Because you're not in control.And when we're not in control… we feel insecure.That's not just true in a car.It's true in life.Every time we feel insecure, we reach for control.And every time we reach for control, we reveal what we really trust.In Genesis 22, God puts Abraham in the ultimate “passenger seat” moment.God asks him to do something that feels unthinkable… unreasonable… even unbearable.And the question becomes:Will Abraham trust God… or try to take control?CONTEXTThe thread is security. Last week we saw...Abraham seek security through deception (Gen 20)Abraham seek security through control (Gen 21:1–21)Abraham seek security through agreements (Gen 21:22–34)This week, we hope to see Abraham find true security as he learns to trust in God's promises, obey his voice, and rely on his provision.Why does God test us?To reveal what we really trust (pleasing God)To display His worth through our obedience (glorifying God)God tests us to deepen our trust in Him and display His worth through us.Because he's teaching us to trust him as our ultimate security when we're tempted to reach for control.How do we handle God's tests?By trusting his promises,Obeying his voice/word, and Relying on his provisionOr, more specifically…Expect tests from God (1-2)Focus on promises, not explanations (3-5)Depend on God's provision (6-14)Look forward to what God has for you (15-24)Bottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”First, there's a difference between testing and tempting:Temptation (James 1:13–15):“When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.” James‬ ‭1‬:‭13‬-‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬Comes from within and from the enemy → aims to pull us away from God → exposes weakness.Testing (Genesis 22:1):“Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.” Genesis‬ ‭22‬:‭1‬ ‭NIV‬‬Comes from God → aims to draw us closer to Him → strengthens faith.Temptation is designed to make you fall. Testing is designed to make you stand.Consider how unreasonable God's test was as you consider how we might respond to his tests in our lives…OUTLINE (influenced by Warren Wiersbe & ChatGPT):We handle God's tests in life by:Trusting His promisesObeying His voice (word)Relying on His provisionExpect tests from God. (22:1-2) WW writes, “In the ‘School of Faith' we must have occasional tests, or we will never know where we are spiritually. Abraham had his share of tests right from the beginning.”“Family test” - leave nation, neighborhood and extended family and go“Famine test” - left Canaan and went to Egypt #FAIL“Fellowship test” - let Lot choose which way to go when they split up“Fight test” - rescued Lot and Sodom's citizens and stuff“Fortune test” - declined Sodom's wealth“Fatherhood test” - Sent Hagar & Ishmael away first time #FAIL“Farewell test” - Send Hagar and Ishmael away second timeOne test I faced was baptism. Another was my calling into ministry.Was “baptized” as an infant so didn't believe I needed to be baptized after my conversion; it took 2 pastors and 10 years for me to see the truthWas “called” into full-time ministry within a month or 2 of being baptized leaving successful career in EngineeringIf you walk with God, tests are not the exception—they are the curriculum.Focus on promises, not explanations (3-5) “Faith does not demand explanations; faith rests on promises.” -WW“Our faith is not really tested until God asks us to bear what seems unbearable, do what seems unreasonable, and expect what seems impossible.” -WWWhen God sends a test or trial, our first response is usually, “Why me?” Or “Why, Lord?” Instead of “What can I learn through this?”"Deliverance will get you out of Egypt. But surrender will get Egypt out of you." (Or Sodom, or Babylon, or America...)We live by promises, not by explanations. Abraham says, “We will worship and then we will come back” → implicit faith in resurrection (cf. Hebrews 11:17–19)Faith doesn't need to understand everything—it just needs to trust what God has said.If you wait for God to explain everything, you'll never obey anything.Depend on God's provision (6-14)Two statements reveal the emphasis in this passage:“God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering.” (8), &Yahweh Yireh, “The Lord will see to it.” (14) #provide“Where God guides, He pro-vides.” -Old PastorHow does God provide?Where…does the Lord provide? Where you sent you to walk in his will. Should we expect his provision when we don't walk in his steps?When? Right when it's needed. Sometimes at the last minute. He's never late.How? Often simply. He surprised Abraham with the ram in the thicket right next behind him.To Whom? To those who humbly walk with him. Why? For his pleasure and his glory!What kind of provision is available?Resurrection-powered provisionEphesians 1:19–20 & 3:20You don't experience God's provision sitting on the sidelines—you experience it on the path of obedience.Look forward to what God has after the test. (15-24) What comes after the test?New Approval (12) “Atta boy!”New Son (13-14) → Isaac received backIsaac likely never the same. God gave. Abraham gave back. God gave back.Don't let the gift replace the Giver—Abraham didn'tNew Assurances. (16-18) New names for an expanded future. (14; 23)Yahweh Yireh (14)Rebekah (23)God is already preparing the next chapter while you're still in the test.CONCLUSIONBottom line: “We handle God's tests by trusting His promises, obeying His voice, and relying on His provision.”How do we handle God's tests?By trusting his promises,Obeying his voice/word, and Relying on his provisionEvery test exposes what we trustEvery test invites surrenderEvery test reveals God's sufficiencyWhat is your Isaac?Are you trusting God—or trying to control the outcome?Ram → Lamb → GospelAbraham looks up…and there's a ram caught in the thicket.God provides a substitute.Isaac lives…because something else dies in his place.Pause. Let that sit.Expand the PatternThis moment isn't just about Abraham and Isaac.It's pointing forward.Another Father…another Son…another sacrifice.Connect to ChristIn John 1:29, we read:When John the Baptist saw Jesus, he said,“Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.”On that day in Genesis 22—God provided a ram.But one day—God would provide His own Son.⸻In Genesis 22…God stopped Abraham's hand.At the cross…God did not stop His own.Let that land. This is your emotional peak.⸻Why?Because our greatest problem isn't lack of control—it's sin.And our greatest need isn't control—it's a Savior.⸻So the question isn't just:“Will you trust God in the test?”The deeper question is:Will you trust the God who gave everything for you?⸻You don't have to control your life…because the God who tested Abrahamis the God who gave His Son for you—PrayQuestions (Write this down) - grab an index card and penWhat is God saying to you right now?

The Bible calls us to be doers of the Word, not just hearers—but that takes a level of discipline many of us struggle with. Dr. Tony Evans explains how to find both the motivation and the strength to live out what God says.

Pharaoh said, "I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go." He was about to receive a masterclass in who Jehovah really is. But the real question isn't whether Pharaoh would let go—it's whether we are willing to let go of our own "Egypt." Summary: In this episode, we dive into the heart of the Exodus story (chapters 7–13). We move beyond the cinematic spectacles to find the deep, personal doctrine of repentance and redemption hidden within the plagues and the Passover. The War of the Gods: We analyze how each of the ten plagues was a specific "judgment against all the gods of Egypt," proving that Jehovah stands supreme over the Nile, the sun, and even life itself. The Hardening of the Heart: We clarify the JST corrections to the text—God didn't take away Pharaoh's agency; Pharaoh hardened his own heart, choosing pride over the "finger of God." Pharaoh's "Negotiations": We look at the four ways Pharaoh tried to compromise with Moses—and why "partial obedience" is just another form of bondage. The Passover Lamb: We explore the meticulous requirements of the Passover and how every element—the unblemished lamb, the bitter herbs, and the blood on the doorposts—points directly to the Atonement of Jesus Christ. Leaving Egypt for Good: We discuss the importance of not "leaving a forwarding address" for our sins. True deliverance requires us to go into the wilderness with no intention of looking back. Call-to-Action: Are there "shallow promises" you've made to the Lord that you keep falling back on when the pressure is off? How can the "Blood of the Lamb" help you fully exit your Egypt this week?
