Life's challenges are by no means random. They shape you. In this week's follow-up message to “On the Other Side of Endurance,” Pastor Touré Roberts dives into the power of persistence and perseverance as the defining marks of those who endure. Persistence means staying true to who you are in Christ when pressure comes. Perseverance is the strength to keep moving because you know something is on the other side. Together, they form what Pastor Touré calls a spiritual sophistication that prepares you to overcome trials without losing your identity, your love, or your faith. When the enemy whispers, “You won't make it,” worship and the Word silence this lie. When offense and hardship try to derail you, perseverance anchors you in God's truth and keeps your heart pure. Discover how persistence and perseverance unlock the victory God has already secured for you through this profound word.

All this week we're looking at some four-hundred year old guidance and advice from the Puritan writer, Thomas Brooks. Specifically, Brooks has listed five remedies to the enemy of the soul's  strategy to get us to see following Jesus as a dangerous, losing, and suffering-filled way of life. Brooks offers great insights for us to share with our kids as they face opposition in this world. Today, Brooks tells us to never, ever forget that great cloud of witnesses who precedes us in the faith who are now with Christ. We read about these saints in Hebrews, chapter eleven. God has given us a rich history of sisters and brothers in Christ who, while they were living, endured tremendous troubles and hardships because of their faith in God. Yet, they remained faithful to God, pushing forward and shining as bright lights in their dark cultures and times. Whether we are adults, children, or teens, God calls us to faithful living in spite of cultural opposition. Let's be sure to teach this to our kids.

When dreams don't go as planned, do you give up—or keep running your race? In this episode, Russell Dinkins, Executive Director of Tracksmith, shares how track changed the trajectory of his life, opened doors to college, and taught him resilience, grit, discipline, and purpose on and off the track. We talk about the dreams he had as a kid, the detours and doubts he faced after Princeton, and how his athletic journey has always run parallel to the ups and downs of life. Russell shares lessons on learning to embrace your quirks, standing up for yourself (and others), and what it means to keep showing up even when you don't have it all figured out. Russell's story is a powerful reminder that dreams never die when you refuse to quit. More about Russell: Russell Dinkins is an athlete, national track and field advocate, and executive director of the Tracksmith Foundation. An NCAA champion and six-time Ivy League champion while at Princeton, Dinkins' advocacy has helpedsave four Division I track and field programs by leveraging media and historic applications of Title IX and other legal strategies to see the reinstatement of over 200 athletic opportunities. Recently, Dinkins celebrated 15 years of running 1:48 in the 800mm, a mark he first achieved during his freshman year of college.

Are we enduring in watchfulness, or fainting in the fight? The Christian life is a long race and a spiritual battle. Strength comes by fixing our eyes on Jesus. He's called us to wear His armor and stand firm. Will He find us praying when He returns? Jesus calls us to stay spiritually awake. Are we alert in a distracted world? From Gethsemane to today, “watch and pray” remains a call to surrender, dependence, and endurance. As we fix our eyes on Him, He keeps us, equips us, and uses us. Let us not sleep—let us pray.Want to go deeper in studying this command of Christ?

What's the point of my “low points”? Looking back over a life of legacy, Peter counted more than a few low points. They would not define him—at least, the "low" part wouldn't. Life's low points can be defining, but with God, we get to write the definition. Peter's final chapter shows us how, and it's a great finish to the "Peter Process." Live Fully!

In Racial Resentment in the Political Mind, Darren W. Davis and David C. Wilson challenge the commonly held notion that all racial negativity, disagreements, and objections to policies that seek to help racial minorities stem from racial prejudice. They argue that racial resentment arises from just-world beliefs and appraisals of deservingness that help explain the persistence of racial inequality in America in ways more consequential than racism or racial prejudice alone.The culprits, as many White people see it, are undeserving people of color, who are perceived to benefit unfairly from, and take advantage of, resources that come at Whites' expense—a worldview in which any attempt at modest change is seen as a challenge to the status quo and privilege. Yet, as Davis and Wilson reveal, many Whites have become racially resentful due to their perceptions that African Americans skirt the “rules of the game” and violate traditional values by taking advantage of unearned resources. Resulting attempts at racial progress lead Whites to respond in ways that retain their social advantage—opposing ameliorative policies, minority candidates, and other advancement on racial progress. Because racial resentment is rooted in beliefs about justice, fairness, and deservingness, ordinary citizens, who may not harbor racist motivations, may wind up in the same political position as racists, but for different reasons. Professor Davis' research interests include most areas in public opinion and political behavior. A unifying theme running through much of his research is a concern for identifying the social psychological motivations underlying political attitudes and behavior. This approach has been applied to specific research areas, including political tolerance, implicit racial attitudes, the role of threat and anxiety in political behavior, public reactions to terrorism, social desirability, the measurement of political and social attitudes, racism and racial politics, and the political behavior of African Americans.Professor Davis is co-author of a forthcoming Cambridge University Press book, Perseverance in the Parish? Religious Attitudes from a Black Catholic Perspective. Based on the first national survey of African American Catholics, this book explores the perceptions of racism and racial experiences in the Catholic Church. His other book, Negative Liberty: Public Opinion and the Terrorist Attacks on America, examines the role of threat perceptions on the tradeoffs between civil liberties and security, political tolerance, and ideas of citizenship.

What keeps a true believer from walking away from Jesus—especially when life gets hard? For some, faith seems to fade under pressure. But for others, it's refined. Why? In this episode, Stephen Davey explores Revelation 14:12–13 and unpacks the meaning of the “perseverance of the saints.” You'll discover that true faith is marked by loyalty to Christ, obedience to His Word, and rest in His promise. And most importantly, you'll see that perseverance isn't about clinging harder—it's about being held. Christ doesn't lose His people. He finishes what He starts. This message isn't just for the future Tribulation saints—it's for you today. If you've ever felt like giving up, if you've questioned your salvation, or if you've failed and wondered if God still wants you, this teaching will encourage your soul. The evidence of real faith isn't perfection—it's a desire to follow Jesus even when you stumble. You'll also be reminded that God doesn't just save you from something—He saves you for something. The promise of rest and reward awaits every saint who finishes the race. And if you belong to Jesus, He will make sure you do.

In Racial Resentment in the Political Mind, Darren W. Davis and David C. Wilson challenge the commonly held notion that all racial negativity, disagreements, and objections to policies that seek to help racial minorities stem from racial prejudice. They argue that racial resentment arises from just-world beliefs and appraisals of deservingness that help explain the persistence of racial inequality in America in ways more consequential than racism or racial prejudice alone.The culprits, as many White people see it, are undeserving people of color, who are perceived to benefit unfairly from, and take advantage of, resources that come at Whites' expense—a worldview in which any attempt at modest change is seen as a challenge to the status quo and privilege. Yet, as Davis and Wilson reveal, many Whites have become racially resentful due to their perceptions that African Americans skirt the “rules of the game” and violate traditional values by taking advantage of unearned resources. Resulting attempts at racial progress lead Whites to respond in ways that retain their social advantage—opposing ameliorative policies, minority candidates, and other advancement on racial progress. Because racial resentment is rooted in beliefs about justice, fairness, and deservingness, ordinary citizens, who may not harbor racist motivations, may wind up in the same political position as racists, but for different reasons. Professor Davis' research interests include most areas in public opinion and political behavior. A unifying theme running through much of his research is a concern for identifying the social psychological motivations underlying political attitudes and behavior. This approach has been applied to specific research areas, including political tolerance, implicit racial attitudes, the role of threat and anxiety in political behavior, public reactions to terrorism, social desirability, the measurement of political and social attitudes, racism and racial politics, and the political behavior of African Americans.Professor Davis is co-author of a forthcoming Cambridge University Press book, Perseverance in the Parish? Religious Attitudes from a Black Catholic Perspective. Based on the first national survey of African American Catholics, this book explores the perceptions of racism and racial experiences in the Catholic Church. His other book, Negative Liberty: Public Opinion and the Terrorist Attacks on America, examines the role of threat perceptions on the tradeoffs between civil liberties and security, political tolerance, and ideas of citizenship.

In this homily The Rev. Janet Richardson, Assistant to the Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, shares that we should trust in God no matter the result. Having faith does not always lead to the outcomes we want or when we want them. We should keep our eyes on Jesus with regular prayer, scripture reading, and worship.Send comments to: musingsonfaith@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I dive into one of the rarest treasures in my collection… The very first issue of Success Magazine from December 1897! And the coolest thing is that the story behind this is insanely inspiring! This was more than just a magazine. It marked the beginning of the personal development movement in America. Its founder, Orison Swett Marden, overcame enormous challenges to publish that first issue, and his story has deeply inspired me during some of my own most difficult seasons in business. Key Highlights: The story behind Success Magazine and its role in shaping the personal development movement The obstacles Orison Swett Marden faced to publish the inaugural issue How Marden's perseverance gave me perspective and strength in my own entrepreneurial journey A look inside the 1897 issue and its early success principles Why Marden's mission to change lives still matters today For me, this first issue is a reminder that persistence and belief in a mission can carry you through any challenge. Marden's story has fueled my determination, and it can inspire you too! Wherever you are and whatever challenges you face, his example proves that one person's vision can change everything! And, if you're interested in learning more about what's inside this first issue of Success Magazine, I'm putting a link below so you can see my notes and thoughts about all the articles and ads in this rare first edition!

The brushback pitch has been a part of baseball since the turn of the Century… the one 125 years ago! The Big Train Walter Johnson hit over 200 batters in his Hall of Fame career… 50 years later, Bob Gibson and Don Drysdale were infamous for drilling guys either on purpose or just having one “get away” as they came inside. It's a part of the game, and sometimes, it has catastrophic results. In 1975, Sports Illustrated did a piece on the “beanball” and recounted the story of the only player in MLB history to die from being struck in the head by a pitch… In 1920 Ray Chapman was hit by a Carl Mays pitch and 12 hours later died as a result. The sound of the ball striking Chapman's skull was so loud that Mays thought it had hit the end of Chapman's bat; he fielded the ball and threw to first base. Now imagine you've worked the better part of your life trying to get to the big leagues. Countless batting cages and practices… until you secure a full scholarship to play at a top school, like North Carolina, where you are named All-Conference in 2002. A few months later you get one step closer to fulfilling your dream when the Chicago Cubs take you in the 9th round of the MLB Draft. For three years, you play minor league ball… Lansing, Daytona, West Tennessee and finally Iowa… the Cubs triple a-team… and then on July 7, 2005, the call is made… Adam Greenberg is a Major Leaguer. Two nights later, in the 9th inning of a game against the Marlins in Miami, Dusty Baker summons Greenberg to pinch-hit. He confidently takes the bat he's been holding onto all game, puts on a helmet and strides to the plate for his first major league at bat. Valerio de los Santos goes into his windup… and less than a half second later… it's all over. The pitch hit Adam in the back of his head just under the helmet he had just placed on his head for the first time. He crumbled to the ground with a fractured skull and while on the ground told himself, “Stay alive. Stay alive. Stay alive.”  He did stay alive, but his Major League career was over. In a flash, all Greenberg had spent his entire life preparing for was gone. The life he had planned… over. He wouldn't give up easily, playing in the minors for a half dozen years and being a member of Team Israel in the WBC in 2013. And as it was, his major league career wasn't officially in the books just yet… the Marlins had other plans.  An online petition by a fan picked up steam and in October of 2012, the Marlins signed Greenberg to a 1-day contract… he was getting another at bat… Cy Young pitcher RA Dickey said he was going to treat him like the Major Leaguer Greenberg was, and three pitches later, the knuckleballer had struck him out. The greatest strikeout of all-time. The author of “Get Up: The Art of Perseverance”, Greenberg joins us on the Past Our Prime podcast and recounts as best he can what took place in that first at bat… he tells us how when he was on the ground they asked him questions like “Do you know where you were two days ago?” and Adam said reflexively, “In the minors… and I'm not going back!” It's a story of courage and determination about a kid who did get up, and stayed alive and battled his way back into the box.  In an instant Adam Greenberg's best moment of his life became the worst moment of his life. And yet 20 years later, he refers to it as “The Gift”. You have to hear the full story to know he actually means it. Listen and download wherever you get your podcasts.
