Ho do we drift from the faith? And how do people who never had faith even begin?
Jesus is King! His name holds all power and authority. In his name, you can find freedom, healing, and joy unlike anything the world can offer. When you have a relationship with the King, you can call on his name to experience the gifts of the Kingdom. Read Colossians 1:15-23 this week to learn about the character and authority of King Jesus.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49439964RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Transforming Perspectives | In the modern world, the subject of Faith has become all inclusive in believing in any object, and any form or substance, making them gods.Bible Doctrine of Faith is defined in complete specificity on the Sovereign, One True and Living GOD. So much so, Paul the Apostle exhorts and proclaims its definitiveness, as the subject or action of hope and the evidence or manifestation of things not seen, explaining further, misplaced belief in anything else is meaningless.Exhorting for everyone to have faith in God whereby man is justified not by carnal works but by walking meaning, thriving in life by faith actively in Jesus Christ, trusting in God's sovereign rule over all creation.Pray, Read and Study - the Book of Hebrews Chapters 4, 5 and 11.Final Episode of Season 6.Reclaimed and Edited Episode of Season One.PODCAST PRODUCTS AND RESOURCES | WEBPAGE | - You, Life and God Podcast powered by Buzzsprout.com Episodes | Transforming Perspectives are available also on Podcast, Music and Radio Platforms.

Amy Shearn, award-winning author of five novels. Her latest book, “Animal Instinct,” is about a 40-something newly divorced woman rediscovering her desires during the height of the COVID pandemic, and doing so both through her interactions with actual live humans and an AI chatbot she designed to compile all her favorite parts of actual live humans and none of the annoying, boring things–it's such a fun, thoughtful read. Amy also teaches creative writing and works one on one with writers as an editor and/or book coach. In this part of our interview, I ask Amy about the squishier side of writing–the thoughts, ideas, and beliefs that shape your view and your work. We covered:- Reconciling the sensitivity and openness required to be a writer and the need to have a thick skin in order to share the work you so lovingly create- Why a three-star review is actually a sign of success- How teaching writing has helped her view her own inner critic differently- How to feel like you've done ‘enough' to promote your work–even if that's very hard to quantify- Her definition of a work's success–that it has taken on a life of its own- The best moment of her writing life that happened just last weekend!- What she's no longer afraid of now that she's 45-½- Why there is no formula for creativity Connect with Amy on Instagram @amyshearnwriters, Substack @amyshearn, or at amyshearnwriters.com.

Inflation is eating away your net worth, and if you don't do something about it, you could be worse off in the future. What's the best inflation-proof investment to make in 2025? Which options will merely hedge against inflation, and which will beat inflation so you grow your wealth while prices are going up? With new tariffs potentially flaring up inflation again, every investor should be paying careful attention to this. Dave did the math to find four inflation-proof investments that perform best over time. He even discovered how one of the most common “inflation hedges” could cost you real wealth over time and why buying a house in cash to save on interest could be the wrong move. If inflation is about to take away your spending power, where's the best place to put your money? Dave compared not only the nominal (non-inflation-adjusted), but also the real (inflation-adjusted) returns to ensure each of these assets is actually getting you a REAL return. Should you move your money into bonds, high-yield savings accounts, stocks, or stick to real estate? We're sharing the analysis today. In This Episode We Cover: The most inflation-proof investments that will keep your wealth growing even with high tariffs Why one common “inflation hedge” could be a massive mistake to invest in Inflation-proof real estate investing and how to ensure you make a REAL return Why rising home prices will NOT protect your wealth, even if you have paid-off houses What to do if you have cash on you right now but want to make a return And So Much More!

In this raucous roundtable edition of Buy Sell, Dave, Coop, Ryan, and Matt fire up the mics for a fast-paced ride through immersive vacation games inspired by The Game, Johnny Rotten's very public band breakup, the hype behind MLB's torpedo bats, and whether a new James Bond game should let you choose your 007. Each topic spins into tangents both hilarious and oddly insightful—from fake abductions to Sean Bean mixups to the mechanics of digital Bonds. It's one part pop culture debate, one part group therapy, and all signature chaos.

Read OnlineWhile still more people gathered in the crowd, Jesus said to them, “This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah.” Luke 11:29The crowd seemed to be a mixed bunch. First, there were those who wholeheartedly believed in Jesus. The Twelve, for example, left everything behind to follow Him. His mother and various other holy women believed in Him and were His faithful followers. But within the growing crowd, it appeared that there were many who questioned Jesus and wanted some form of proof of Who He was. Thus, they wanted a sign from Heaven.A sign from Heaven would have been some externally manifest proof of Who Jesus was. Granted, Jesus had already performed numerous miracles. But it seems that this was not enough. They wanted more—and that desire is a clear indication of a stubbornness of heart and a lack of faith. So Jesus could not and would not give them the sign they wanted.Instead, Jesus says that the only sign they will receive is the sign of Jonah. Recall that the sign of Jonah was not very appealing. He was thrown over the side of a boat and swallowed by a whale, where he remained for three days before being spit up on the shores of Nineveh.Jesus' sign would be similar. He would suffer at the hands of the religious leaders and civil authorities, be killed and be placed in a tomb. And then, three days later, He would rise. But His Resurrection was not one in which He came forth with rays of light for all to see; rather, His post-Resurrection appearances were to those who already manifested faith and already believed.The lesson for us is that God will not convince us of the matters of faith through powerful and Hollywood-like public manifestations of God's greatness. Instead, the “sign” we are offered is an invitation to die with Christ so that we can personally begin to experience the new life of the Resurrection. This gift of faith is interior, not publicly exterior. Our death to sin is something we personally and interiorly do, and the new life we receive can only be seen by others by the witness of our lives that are changed.Reflect, today, upon the true sign God has given you. If you are one who seems to be waiting for some manifest sign from our Lord, wait no longer. Look at the crucifix, see Jesus' suffering and death, and choose to follow Him in a death to all sin and selfishness. Die with Him, enter the tomb with Him and allow Him to bring you forth interiorly renewed this Lent, so that you can be transformed by this one and only sign from Heaven.My crucified Lord, I gaze upon the crucifix and see in Your death the greatest act of love ever known. Give me the grace I need to follow You to the tomb so that Your death will triumph over my sins. Free me, dear Lord, during the Lenten journey so that I will be able to fully share in Your new life of the Resurrection. Jesus, I trust in You.

This week, we've narrowed it down to which shows we're committing to this anime season! Starting with Ameku MD Detective, it's nothing but curses and spontaneous combustion! Justin is up to here with Dr. Takao Ameku and her big-headed tendencies. Jakia was blindsided and shocked to find out who was responsible and who Professor Murato really was and how Kagaya was indeed a liar. In Guild Receptionist, Justin is a stan for Cybil and we're getting ready for the Centennial Festival. Both Justin and Jakia are wondering when the guild will finally hire more help because we don't see any additional desks, people, or nothing. In Sakamoto Days, Jakia and Justin applaud Sakamoto for his honesty to his wife. And they are shocked by how many one-sided friendships Sakamoto has. It seems that everyone besides Nagumo is in some lala land. As per usual Solo leveling does not disappoint. It continues to hit episode after episode! No wonder it crashed so many anime sites. We're no longer faking it here and we finally get re-re-assessed and all we can say is just watch the news tomorrow. Justin hopes that Jin Woo will reconsider the Hunter Association's offer.

What kind of government do you believe could truly solve the challenges we face? A benevolent king? A perfect ruler? In this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," the host, Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret), and his wingman, Christy Mendelow, explore a truth that's been in front of us all along: Jesus is the King we need. How often do we reject His perfect governance for the flawed systems of men? In a world where our decisions impact generations, why do we continue to rely on broken solutions? During the Christmas season, as we celebrate the birth of our Savior, let's reflect on what it means to follow the King of kings—not just on Sunday but in every aspect of our lives.

Paul addresses a fractured church, divided into factions based on allegiance to specific leaders—Paul, Apollos, Cephas, or even Christ in a tribalistic sense. These divisions reveal the human tendency to seek identity and superiority in secondary things, even in the church. Paul responds by re-centering their focus on Christ alone, emphasizing that their unity and salvation are rooted not in the messengers, but in the message of the cross. Human hearts naturally turn good things, like church leaders or even the gospel, into ultimate things that ironically look away from Christ. We are those who create idols that divide rather than finding significance in Christ. But Paul dismantles these divisions by reminding the Corinthians of the gospel's leveling power: none of them were baptized into Paul or Apollos—they were baptized into Christ. The cross is not just the means of salvation; it's the ultimate unifier, declaring that all believers are equally in need of grace. The key takeaway is that the gospel creates a new identity transcending tribalism. In Christ, there's no room for boasting in human leaders or factions because everything we have is a gift. This passage challenges us to examine where we are tempted to find our worth outside of Jesus and invites us to center our hearts and community on the One who unites us all.
Join us before the year ends as we doff our caps and bend the knee in a chat with Peter Kaestner - ex American diplomat and man who has seen more bird species than anyone else in the world! Peter takes us through the world of bird watching at the elite level, and how his love for birds led him to a career that saw him serve his country and travel the globe in search of birds. With a life thoroughly well lived, his story to see his 10,000th bird species is nothing short of Hollywood ready! (This could also be the first podcast interview live interrupted by the appearance of a bird - and what more fitting guest for it to happen with!) A massive thanks to Peter for all his time, and to the team at Birdfair for brining us together in the first place.

In this week's message, we continue our series in Luke: The Teachings of Jesus. Pastor Eric Hovis highlights the following five principals from the text: 1) Jesus calls his disciples to be strategic with their resources for the Kingdom of God. 2) Only what's invested for Christ will last. 3) God doesn't want generosity from us, but for us. 4) Generosity produces heavenly riches. 5) Don't let money be your master.

Aristotle's "Politics" is full of deep insight: politics as the architectonic science, the mixed constitution, happiness as the end of the city. But, there's a group which is excluded from human virtue; namely, the natural slave. Alex Denley and Dr. Andrew Jones discuss how the "natural slave" reveals the structure of Aristotle's just city: a limited class of citizens over an unspecified amount of slaves. And, that the despotic relationship extends into the mixed constitution of the citizens. The masses believe they are ruling in a democracy, the notables believe they are ruling an oligarchy, and the one, true philosopher-statesman rules the whole; each class instrumentalizes the other. They discuss how this doesn't vilify Aristotle, or presume nefarious intentions; this is what a science of a pagan political order demands. Ultimately, it is this structure that Christianity transforms from both within and above.
