Thank you for listening to this sermon. We continue in our summer Psalms series. Date: 6/14/26 Speaker: Jon Jamison Passage: Psalms 34 Please visit our website at reconcilecc.org for any questions. Thank you for helping support our mission to Preach the Gospel. Produce Disciples. Pursue Justice.

Rashaun is a former inmate at the Jackson County Detention Center. He is in the studio to tell of his transformation when he gave his life to God. Let's Go to Church is a spin off series dedicated to growing closer to God and hopefully getting a better understanding of the Bible. Danny aims to have Preachers from all over in the studio to either Preach an actual Sermon, or have Bible study. We here at the WUW Podcast have a deep faith in God and all of his blessings and we want to bring this series to you in the hopes of reaching someone out there in possibly troubled times.  

Who are you worried about? Most of us carry burdens for people we love, but what are we supposed to do with that worry? In Genesis 18:22-33, Abraham is deeply concerned about his nephew Lot. Instead of being consumed by anxiety, he brings his burden to God through intercessory prayer. In this message, Pastor Josh Miller shows us how to turn worry into prayer and why God is still looking for people who will stand in the gap for others. You'll discover: • Why intercession begins with intimacy with God • Why God is looking for intercessors • What it means to contend in prayer • How to pray with greater faith and persistence • Why your burdens may reveal what God is calling you to pray for The people you're most concerned about should become the people you pray for most passionately. Don't waste your worry. Let it drive you to God.

1 Peter 3:8-178Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind. 9Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing. 10For“Whoever desires to love life    and see good days,let him keep his tongue from evil    and his lips from speaking deceit;11let him turn away from evil and do good;    let him seek peace and pursue it.12For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,    and his ears are open to their prayer.But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”13Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is good? 14But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, 15but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, 16having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. 17For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that should be God's will, than for doing evil.

What should a pastor do after preaching a sermon that didn’t connect? In this episode of the Revitalize & Replant podcast, Mark Clifton, Mark Hallock, and Dan Hurst discuss how pastors can respond after preaching a sermon that feels like a “pick-six.” Every preacher has messages that don’t land the way they hoped, but one difficult Sunday doesn’t define a lifetime of faithful ministry. In this conversation, you’ll learn: Why the text—not the preacher—deserves the spotlight Why every sermon doesn’t have to be a home run How faithful pastors can recover after a discouraging sermon Why your weaknesses and failures don’t limit God’s work How God’s Word never returns void Why one bad (or even one great) sermon doesn’t define your ministry If you’ve ever left the pulpit feeling discouraged, this episode offers biblical encouragement for pastors committed to faithful preaching, church revitalization, and long-term ministry.

In this season finale of Church Is Messy, Rick and Svea reflect on the close of both the podcast season and Autumn Ridge's long journey through 1 Corinthians. The conversation centers on 1 Corinthians 16 and Rick's message about how churches relate to leaders—not as a grievance or self-serving topic, but as a willingness to talk honestly about what the text actually says. Rick revisits four unhealthy mindsets that can shape how people respond to leaders: strongman Christianity, scoreboard Christianity, pep rally Christianity, and consumerism Christianity. He explains how these mindsets often grow out of fear, insecurity, tribalism, comparison, or the subtle desire to place ourselves at the center.A significant part of the episode focuses on the difference between looking to strong leaders for certainty and learning to trust Jesus with our circumstances. Rick and Svea also spend time unpacking consumerism in the church, especially how easy it is to recognize in others and how difficult it can be to see in ourselves.The conversation then turns toward practical ways to return to a grounded identity in Christ: being honest with ourselves, naming what is true out loud, bringing it to Jesus in prayer, and walking honestly with trusted people who love us and love Jesus.Rick and Svea also touch on submission, leadership, and trust—especially what it means to follow leaders in a broken world while keeping our ultimate allegiance to Jesus.The episode closes with a look ahead. Church Is Messy will take a short summer break and return in August alongside a new series called The End?, which will explore end times questions, where history is headed from a biblical perspective, and what Christians can expect about heaven.Topics discussed in this episode:00:00 — Intro01:37 — Why Rick Chose to Preach on 1 Corinthians 1607:50 — The Four Dysfunctional Mindsets (Recap) 10:01 — Which Mindsets Are Most Dangerous Today15:58 — Deep Dive: Consumerism Christianity21:41 — Consumerism in Marriage & Relationships23:28 — The Antidotes: Grounding Identity in Christ27:37 — Submission to Leaders (Healthy & Unhealthy34:36 — Upcoming Break & Preview of Next Series

Share a commentA lot of Christian content promises quick fixes, but what if the real problem is our diet and what if the only lasting solution is a return to the words of God? We make the case that spiritual reformation and heart-level awakening come through the power of the gospel as Scripture is proclaimed plainly, the way Paul charged Timothy to “preach the word.” That means resisting the constant pull toward trendy topics, clever packaging, and sermons that merely use verses to decorate our opinions. Jonah chapter 3 becomes our map. Jonah doesn't just get rescued; he gets reenlisted, and the phrase “the word of the Lord came to Jonah the second time” becomes a headline for grace. God gives him a sacred charge: deliver God's proclamation, not a curated message, not a softened warning, and not a ministry built around a sensational testimony. We talk about how easy it is to turn a “fish story” into a platform, and why God keeps redirecting attention back to the text. We also step into Nineveh: a massive, brutal city with idols, fear, and power, yet a city God is already preparing to hear. The details about Nineveh's fish-god worship make Jonah's strange journey feel like providence, not coincidence, and Jonah's simple message “Yet forty days…” shows how God can use straightforward preaching to produce real repentance. We close with a personal reminder of how Bible exposition creates awe of God, not awe of the communicator. If you want stronger faith, better discipleship, and a healthier church, start here: open the Bible and let it speak.

In this powerful message Pastor Kenneth ask the question, "What if the greatest sermon you'll ever preach isn't with words, but with your life? Pastor Kenneth unpacks Jesus' powerful declaration that we are called to be the salt of the earth by bringing God's flavor to every corner of our world and being a light in our workspace to those around us.

In this episode of Truth Talk Live, hosts Robby Dilmore and Dwayne Carson explore the timely and often controversial question: Should women be allowed to preach and serve as pastors? With the Southern Baptist Convention debating the issue, callers from across the country share their biblical perspectives and personal experiences. Join the conversation as faith, Scripture, and current events come together in this thought-provoking discussion.

Here we are, God's daughters, under attack. Every day the enemy attacks with the hopes of distracting us or distancing us from God. That's why we must put on the full armor God has offered us. He doesn't want his girls vulnerable to the devil, he wants us victorious. Last week we studied the first 3 pieces of our God given armor for the spiritual battle: The Belt of Truth The Breastplate of Righteousness The Shoes of Peace Now, it's time for us to pick up our shield. Ephesians 6:16, “In addition to all these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Okay girls, let's learn about this shield and about those fiery arrows coming our way. Roman soldiers had 2 kinds of shields. One was a small, handheld shield. This is not the shield Paul is talking about. Paul is talking about the other type of shield – the one almost as big as a door. This shield was called the scutum (pronounced sk-U-tum). This shield, the sputum was about 4 feet high and 2 feet wide, made of layers of laminated wood, then covered with leather and bound with iron. The shield was big enough for a soldier to crouch behind and be completely protected. You've likely seen the movies where soldiers are carrying these large rectangular shields and when the enemy forces shoot their arrows, the soldiers stand together in formation with their door like shields held tightly ,forming a barrier all around them, in front of them and above them. That's the precise image of our faith as a shield. We are protected, but not only protected, we are enabled to move forward even while under attack. In this formation with their shields fully protecting them on all sides, the army wouldn't just crouch and endure the attack, they would MOVE FORWARD. Forward towards the objective. Forward towards the goal. Forward towards their mission. Forward, even while the enemy attacked. This is the power of our shield of faith. Now, what bout those arrows? Paul says the devil shoots “fiery arrows” at us. Soldiers in these days would often dip their arrows into a flammable liquid, then light them on fire before launching them at their enemy like a missile. AND THAT IS SATAN'S STRATEGY AGAINST US. Fiery, blazing arrows. His objective is to destroy you and he'll use every single thing at his disposal to do so. Don't be so naive to think he won't come after you. Scripture says he's “like a roaring lion”, and honey, lions don't care if you're cute, they don't care if you're happy, they don't care if you're rich, they don't care if you've got a whole family depending on you … lions want to kill you. Period. You have been under attack. No doubt, it's been happening. Even just this past week, fiery arrows were flying at you. Let me help you identify them: Arrow 1: Tempt you to sin Arrow 2: Get you to ignore the things that would help you Arrow 3: Make you miserable Arrow 4: Make you doubt Arrow 5: Make you settle Remember when you just ignored praying about it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you didn't make time to open your Bible? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you thought it wasn't a big deal and you could hide it? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you felt so tired, so defeated and so discouraged that you just sat there? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you checked the box but didn't really give it your best? Yip – that was an arrow. Remember when you knew you should, but you didn't – Yip that was an arrow. Remember when you felt guilt and shame over it – Yip that was an arrow. Not to mention all the things you've been dealing with that make you scared, make you hurt, and make you question – All arrows. Now do you see the attacks you are continually facing? This is your every day reality. Girl, you are always under attack. That's why you need this shield of faith. To put it quite simply, the way you defend yourself from Satan's attacks is on a very practical level TRUST WHAT'S TRUE ABOUT GOD. Faith isn't just hearing about God – Faith isn't even just knowing about God – Faith is actively positioning God's promises between your vulnerability and the enemy's fiery assaults. The devil is going to shoot his fiery arrows to tempt you, distract you, discourage you, detour you and defeat you, but that big ol' shield of faith in God's promises is what you actively pick up and hold up to protect you. I know my God. I know his ways. I feel his presence. I receive his strength. I believe his promises. I trust my God. My sister, that is your defense! Faith is what will protect you when the fiery arrows are coming at you. Faith is what will help you advance even when you're under attack. Faith is not optional for this battle, it is essential! So really, what is faith? What a really hard thing to describe. If we're not careful, faith becomes nothing more than hoping or wishing. You know when you apply for a job and you'r pretty sure you're not going to get it because you're not even remotely qualified for it and someone says, “Well, you've got to have faith.” No, that's not faith. That's not what our Bible is talking about. That kind of faith is not a defense. When you're under attack, just wishing that something is true will never give you the defense you need. Let's give faith a real definition. I read about a missionary named John Paton – someone you've likely never heard of before. He was a Scottish missionary who went to the islands of the South Pacific in the 1800's to tell these remote people about Jesus for the first time. He wasn't welcome there. His wife and child died. Yet, he continued. He learned their language, then he set out to translate the entire Bible into their language so they could know about Jesus. While translating scripture, he got to Ephesians chapter 6 and he was stuck on verse 16, “Hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.” Their language had no word for faith. Faith was non-existent in their world, without even a word for it. As John sat in his island hut, stuck on translating this word “faith”, a local man came running and and flopped himself in a chair. He said to John, “It's just so good to rest my whole weight in this chair.” And that's when John knew – that's what faith is. This is how he could explain faith to the islanders. Faith is resting your whole weight on God. With that translation, the islanders understood faith and they came to put their whole weight on God through Jesus. Faith is putting your whole weight on God. If God said it, then it's true, and I believe it. That is faith. Faith is believing what Jesus has done for us, believing what God says about us, and living it out because it's THE truth. That's a shield of faith. Protected from the attacks of the enemy and able to advance! Through the Bible, we know: • God has chosen us. Before this world even began, he predestined that we would be his girls. He chose us first, gave us the family name, and bestowed upon us all the privileges of being his daughters. • God has blessed us. In everything that God has done for us, his intention is to bless us and give us what we don't deserve. • God has sealed us. He put his mark on us saying we belong to him and we're protected by him. • God has promised us an inheritance. We are in line to inherit the kingdom of God and eternal life. Through Jesus, it's our guaranteed destiny. Girl, that's where you're heading and today you're one day closer! God has held absolutely nothing back from you. He's given his all, he's given his best. He's actively taking everything in your life and making it work together for eternally good purposes. And when you put your whole weight on that, you will be able to survive the attacks of the evil one. Not only survive, but advance! When the fiery arrows come flying at you, and they always do – When you're tempted to doubt, leaning towards fear, hurting and questioning, avoiding the very things that will help you most, wandering down paths not meant for you and knocking on the wrong doors – STOP AND REMEMBER WHAT YOU KNOW OF GOD. Remember his promises for you. Remember what he's already done for you through Jesus. But don't just think about those things, LIFT THEM UP. Lift up that shield of faith by actually leaning into what you KNOW IS TRUE ABOUT GOD. Put your full weight on him. You know what you need to do in that moment of wandering, wallowing, wondering and wavering … you need to have a good talk with yourself. Listen here, self, stop this depressed, unhappy nonsense. Stop this wavering. Stop this delaying. Stop wallowing. You stop it now. Stop letting this steal your praise. Stop letting this distance you from Jesus. Stop it. Put your full weight on God. Remember his promises. Lean on them now! It's not going to be easy, but we all need to do this. We need each other to do it for us. Preach to yourself. Remind yourself of God. Arrange your life so that you're in the path of grace as much as possible — reading Scripture daily, praying, surrounding yourself with the right people. Know where you're vulnerable. Look to God, who will grant you the strength that you need. Then put your whole weight in what we know to be true about God. Remember the Roman shield formation? It's one thing to be a single soldier with a shield. Something much better happens when we come together with faith. As we create a shield-wall of faith, we'll be able to advance even when we're under attack. That's why you and I are connected. That's why God has given us an Army of sisters here. We fully put our weight on God in this together and we move forward even while under attack. Where are you being attacked? What fiery arrows are coming your way? What truths about God can you lean into today? Take up your shield of faith!

Why does work feel so heavy? Whether it's your career, your family, school, parenting, caregiving, ministry, or simply the responsibilities of everyday life, many of us are carrying burdens that leave us exhausted. In Matthew 11:28-30, Jesus gives one of His most famous invitations: "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." But what if Jesus isn't inviting us to escape our work? What if He's inviting us to learn a new way to carry it? In this message, we explore four keys to turning heavy work into "light work": • Pull with a partner • Leave the lying voices • Learn from the Lord • Find your fit Jesus doesn't promise a life without responsibility. He offers His presence, His power, and a yoke that fits. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, burned out, anxious about the future, or exhausted by the weight you're carrying, this message is for you.

1 Peter 3:1-71 Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives, 2when they see your respectful and pure conduct. 3Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— 4but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious. 5For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, 6as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are her children, if you do good and do not fear anything that is frightening.7Likewise, husbands, live with your wives in an understanding way, showing honor to the woman as the weaker vessel, since they are heirs with you of the grace of life, so that your prayers may not be hindered.

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”   2 Timothy 4:2 – “Preach the Word … whether convenient or not; rebuke, correct, and encourage with great patience and teaching.”   Revelation 7:9 – After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 

It does not take enormous faith, but the child-like, seed-like faith of a simple believer to move mountains. I know, because I have commanded ‘mountains' and seen them move many times! I once listened to criticism and as a result I became so discouraged, I stopped organising big crusades and praying for the sick. Because of that, for some years I saw no-one healed. Even today, after a meeting where I see the sick healed, I will often go home and grieve more over ones I didn't see healed (or who didn't repent), than rejoice over the miracles I did see. It only drives me once more to fast and pray for more Holy Spirit power, to be more like Jesus in my ministry. Jesus preached the Gospel – so I do; Jesus healed the sick – so I do.  Smith Wigglesworth has gone down in history as a man of faith. Why? Because of the healing miracles. We need more like him in the church today! In the Bible Jesus said simply, ‘Preach the Gospel, heal the sick.' In faith I believe it – I do it – I see it. Surprisingly in the crusades in Russia I see many people healed who have absolutely no faith but who come in desperate need. God sees their desperation!   Q. Are you opposed to traditional medicine? A. No, I'm not, there are wonderful Christian doctors. If I have a toothache, I go to the dentist; and yes I wear spectacles for my eyes, but I have no eye disease and gradually God has restored my sight – I don't have bi-focal lenses and the lenses are so weak, the optician says that I can do without altogether. If I have a health problem, yes I visit the doctor. If he diagnoses a problem then I know what to pray for specifically. 

I hear of so many who condemn evangelistic crusades because, of the thousands who come forward in the meetings to repent, not all come to the church and remain believers, many go back into their sin. Jesus' answer to this was the parable of the sower: some seed fell on good ground, some fell among thorns and were choked by them (Matthew 13:3-9). It is the same with healing, not all will be healed, and some may lose their healing, not because this is God's way, but because the devil tempts them, or others deceive them into believing that ‘it cannot last' – if they are told this enough times some will believe it! Also many are like nine of the ten lepers who were healed and will not even return to give thanks.  No, not everyone is healed, but this is not God's perfect will. It is even recorded of Jesus that in His own country ‘He could do no mighty works because of their unbelief' (Matthew 13:58). Then in Matthew 17, when the disciples could not heal the epileptic boy, the father complained to Jesus, who instantly healed him. The disciples came to Jesus privately and asked, ‘Why couldn't we heal him?' Jesus did not compromise, He said, ‘Lack of faith!' – not on the part of the child, but the disciples. It does not take enormous faith, but the child-like, seed-like faith of a simple believer to move mountains. I know, because I have commanded ‘mountains' and seen them move many times! Jesus preached the Gospel – so I do; Jesus healed the sick – so I do. In the Bible Jesus said simply, ‘Preach the Gospel, heal the sick.'

The Bible makes sense in its deepest and richest capacity only when we read it through Jesus shaped goggles. When we see all of it through the lens of its Main Character – it should cause us to preach explicitly Christian sermons.Mike Neglia (with some help from Pilgrim Benham) explains, shows and tells how to preach Gospel centered sermons that proclaim the gospel from every passage at our in-person training event in St Petersburg, Florida. After graduating Bible college in Siegen, Germany in the summer of 2002, Mike flew to London, then hitchhiked across the UK and over to Ireland and finished up in the city of Cork. He helped out with Calvary Chapel Cork for a few weeks of summer outreaches and intended on leaving, but the pastor asked him to stay on “for a little bit longer.” He stayed in Cork as a full-time missionary youth outreach coordinator/assistant for more than two years. In 2005 the pastor felt called by the Lord to go elsewhere (New Zealand) and asked if Mike and Rachel would consider staying on and taking over the church. His first Sunday morning was October 18, 2005, preaching to a congregation of four people. Recommended Episodes:Is it a stretch to say that everything in the Bible points to Jesus? –https://anchor.fm/theologyforthepeople/episodes/Christ-Centered-Hermeneutics—Part-1-Is-it-a-stretch-to-say-that-everything-in-the-Bible-points-to-Jesus—-with-Mike-Neglia-e17q0sdResponding to Objections to Christ-Centered Hermeneutics: https://anchor.fm/theologyforthepeople/episodes/Christ-Centered-Hermeneutics—Part-2-Responding-to-Objections-to-Christ-Centered-Hermeneutics—with-Mike-Neglia-e18563kFrom Punk to Pastor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCRutGpHvT8 The Preacher as Historian Linguist and Mystic: https://www.expositorscollective.com/podcast/2019/2/26/episode-36-the-preacher-as-historian-linguist-and-mysticConnect:For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective

Rebecca hosts a discussion* with Dani Treweek and Ellie Wiener, exploring whether women should preach in church.

Send us Fan MailIn this deeply honest and emotionally layered episode of The Box & The Sky series, Keya McClain the Poet explores the uncomfortable but necessary conversation surrounding performative empowerment, hidden competition, projection, and the emotional tension that can quietly exist between women.Empowerment & The Box dives into the ways many women genuinely begin relationships, collaborations, and friendships with authentic intentions — only to later confront unresolved insecurities, comparison wounds, scarcity mindsets, and internalized conditioning surrounding beauty, success, desirability, confidence, visibility, and validation.In this episode, Keya discusses:• Why women are subconsciously conditioned to compete from childhood• The difference between authentic empowerment and performative sisterhood• Passive aggression, subtle competition, and emotional dishonesty between women• Projection, comparison, and unresolved self-worth wounds• Why some women secretly resent the women they publicly support• The emotional complexity of visibility, confidence, beauty, healing, and authenticity• Why emotionally healed women feel safe around other powerful women• The importance of honest self-reflection and emotional accountabilityKeya also explores how many women secretly long for emotionally safe connection while still navigating internalized beliefs rooted in comparison, scarcity, and validation.This conversation is not about condemning women.It is about honesty, healing, accountability, and emotional freedom.Because real empowerment does not require another woman to shrink in order for you to feel powerful.Support the show

What do you do when you've prayed for something impossible... and God said no? In Matthew 21, Jesus makes a shocking promise: faith can move mountains. But what does that actually mean? And what happens when the mountain doesn't move? In this message, Pastor Carlos Lollett unpacks Jesus' teaching on mountain-moving faith and shows why faith isn't about positive thinking, manifesting, or trying harder. Real faith isn't confidence in yourself. It's wholehearted trust in God. You'll discover: - Why pretend Christianity can never produce real faith - The difference between faith in "faith" and faith in God - How to trust God when your prayers go unanswered - Why God invites us to keep praying for the impossible If disappointment, doubt, or unanswered prayers have caused you to stop believing God for big things, this message is for you.

1 Peter 2:11-2511Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. 12Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.13Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, 14or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. 15For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. 16Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. 17Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.18Servants, be subject to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the unjust. 19For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly. 20For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God. 21For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. 22He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. 23When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly. 24He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed. 25For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls. 

As we conclude our Deepfake series in 2 Timothy, Pastor Josh explores Paul's final charge: preach the truth. In a world where people often seek messages that affirm what they already want to hear, God calls His people to remain anchored in His Word. Through Paul's closing encouragements and warnings, we're reminded of the importance of faithfully passing on, protecting, practicing, and proclaiming God's truth. The question for each of us is this: Are we willing to hear and apply God's truth, even when it's hard? / Verses and message notes: www.theridge.church/notes // Join us online or in person Sundays at 9a + 11a: www.theridge.church/live

God gives us grace to fight against hypocrisy by calling us to place our confidence not in our works but in the gospel of Christ and the work of the Spirit to change our hearts so we can grow in godliness and practicing what we preach.

4 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction. -2 Timothy 4:1-2 NIV

In Gethsemane, Jesus falls to the ground in anguish and prays, “Take this cup from me.” Why? What was Jesus seeing in that moment? Why was the Son of God overwhelmed with sorrow “to the point of death”? And what does His suffering reveal about the cross? In this message, Pastor Andy Davis explores one of the most sacred and mysterious moments in the Bible — the night Jesus chose the cross. This message covers: - Why Gethsemane is holy ground - The crushing weight Jesus faced before the cross - What it means that Jesus willingly submitted to the Father - How Jesus succeeded where Adam failed - Why prayer matters in moments of temptation and suffering - What true surrender to God looks like Jesus was not trapped. He willingly went to the cross for sinners. And in Gethsemane, we see the greatest display of courage in history and the Savior who willingly suffered so sinners could be forgiven.

1 Peter 2:9-129But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, thatyou may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.10Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, butnow you have received mercy.11Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wagewar against your soul. 12Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speakagainst you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

The behavioral contradiction at the center of the Kouri Richins sentencing is staggering. She stood at a podium and told her sons not to hold hate. Prosecutors say she spent the years leading up to that moment orchestrating attacks against every person connected to this case from inside her jail cell.The sentencing memo documents what prosecutors describe as a systematic campaign: a fake dating profile of the lead detective posted online, what they characterize as false DCFS reports against the family raising her children, retained counsel to pursue criminal charges against her sister-in-law, federal firearms charges pursued against Eric's father for removing his dead son's guns, a marijuana report on Eric's sister, and unfounded bar complaints against the prosecutors. According to the memo, none of it had merit. All of it had a target. The psychology behind the pattern — DARVO, narcissistic injury response — is textbook. Prosecutors called her character "irredeemable."Then the courtroom behavior. Cameras caught Kouri scoffing and rolling her eyes while her sons' statements were read by therapists describing locked rooms, fear, and children caring for each other because she wasn't. When her own family took the podium to call her innocent, the tears appeared — instant, performative, and reserved for her own suffering. That contrast became the defining image of the proceeding.Judge Mrazik sentenced her to life without parole on what would have been Eric Richins' forty-fourth birthday. Her forty-minute allocution told her sons to "be like your dad," told them their childhood memories were "an absolute lie," and directed them away from the people keeping them safe. She acknowledged nothing. A post-conviction message to an "admirer" ended with a winking emoji: "They haven't seen anything yet."Her nine-year-old son said: "Once she is gone, I will feel happy."Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The apostles' keep preaching the same message; of Jesus crucified at the hands of sinful men and then raised to life for their salvation by faith. Their witness of believing the gospel message they are teaching is impacting their entire community, and it's challenging many of the people who feel threatened by it. Christians today are to remember their allegiance and obedience to the Lord comes above all others.
