In today’s Words of Grace broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett continues our series through the Sermon on the Mount, exploring Jesus’ teaching on giving, or almsgiving, from Matthew chapter 6. Alms, rooted in mercy and compassion, represent benevolent giving to those less fortunate. We’ll discuss the biblical history of giving, from Israel’s tithe structure and care … Continue reading "A Lesson on Giving | Matthew 6"
The 4th of the 10 commandments was quite different than the others. Instead of a “do this” or “don’t do that” directive, it instructed the people to remember something. In this message, I look at the meaning of the sabbath, and how it was to be remembered. 07.06.25.Remember.the.Sabbath.Tim.McCool

Imagine standing before God and he asks us on what merit are we worthy to enter into Heaven. What would we say? Would we plead our case by telling of our good works or nationality? Would we tell him of our belief or repentance? In this message Brother Luke looks at things that are commonly …
Am I Rewilder Enough? w/ Sheila HensonDo you feel like a poseur when it comes to rewilding? Do you have guilty pleasures you can't give up? Are you too overwhelmed to start rewilding? You're not alone. In this episode I chat with my friend and Rewild Portland board member Sheila Henson about the judgments we face from others and (more often) ourselves that we perennially face in rewilding. From how we dress to our day to day choices, shame, guilt, and confusion can paralyze us or drive us away from going deeper into rewilding. But rewilding isn't just the way you look, or what you do; it's the stories we tell ourselves about the world and our place in it. How can we break the spell of purity and fundamentalism as we try to create more regenerative ways to live? Listen in to hear what Sheila and I think about this important topic. Sheila Bio:Sheila received her BA in History and an MA in Education, spent twelve years as a behavioral respite worker for children with special needs, working for many of those years at the Serendipity Center in Portland. Today she is an ADHD Coach, and is a well known and respected educator on tiktok. The drive to understand how to be kind, collaborative, and restorative within our social and ecological communities led her to Rewild Portland, where she now serves on the board of directors, heading up our transformative justice committee.

Who exactly is our neighbor? Are we permitted to hate our enemies? In this week's broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett explores Jesus' striking command to love not only our neighbors but also our enemies. Drawing from Matthew 5 and Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10, we examine the deeper spiritual meaning behind the … Continue reading "Neighbors and Enemies"
The Lord views His church in very unique and specific ways – like a body, like a family, as a bride. In this message, I look at the family aspect of God’s view of His church. Is it even possible to interact as the church of God if we are not embracing the family dynamic? …
Retained primitive reflexes are critical to examine, especially in kiddos with neurodevelopmental challenges. Dr Rubin explains an efficient way to check for them.
The conflict between our primitive brain and our prefrontal cortex is as old as our brain itself. Primitive brain wants to avoid pain, pursue immediate pleasure, and conserve energy, while our prefrontal cortex wants to plan for long-term goals and growth to improve the quality of our life. This conflict will often trigger internal negotiation between the two parts of our brain. When we can learn to increase our awareness around this negotiation and apply some tools to our thinking, we can find it easier to shut down the negotiation, keep the commitments we make to ourselves, and grow in our self-respect and self-trust.

The Bible tells us to let our moderation be known unto all men. What exactly does that mean? In a time of excessive appetites for activities like youth sports, careers, or hobbies, it is vitally important we understand what moderation is. In the same way the tires on a car need to be balanced to …
In this week’s episode of Words of Grace, we share a message Ben Winslett recently delivered at Flint River Primitive Baptist Church, exploring the prophecy that the second temple would surpass Solomon's in glory. While some wept over its humble foundation, the prophet Haggai foretold something far greater—that the Lord Himself would come to His … Continue reading "The Glory of the Second House"
When the frontier was settled in the 1800s, it was common for the wagon trains to “circle the wagons” when under attack and at night for protection, safety and interaction. In this message, I look at how we should follow that example when we are attacked by Satan and faced with trials and tragedies. 06.22.25.Circle.the.Wagons.Tim.McCool
The Bible gives multiple accounts of the dead being raised back to life in this world, but that is not the only type of resurrection we find in the scriptures. We read about our spiritual man being resurrected back to life with the new birth and about the resurrection of our bodies eternally at the end …
Eye for Eye, Tooth for Tooth (Matthew 5:38-42)In this weekend's broadcast of Words of Grace, Pastor Benjamin Winslett explores Jesus' powerful teachings on forgiveness and charity from the Sermon on the Mount.

In today's broadcast from our ongoing Sermon on the Mount series, Pastor Ben Winslett explores Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5:33–37, where Christ addresses the misuse of oaths and the importance of honest, straightforward speech. While some might dismiss this as irrelevant in our modern world, Pastor Winslett shows just how deeply applicable Jesus' words are—especially … Continue reading "Men of Direct Speech"
It is easy to lose heart in the face of evil. Sometimes the evil that affects us can be distant – like being frustrated with politics. But sometimes it touches us directly. When it touches us directly, we need to prepare our minds to know how the Lord views and deals with such evil, as …

In this weekend's edition of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett continues our study through the Sermon on the Mount with a message titled “A Deeper Understanding of the 7th Commandment.” While many view the commandment against adultery in strictly physical terms, Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 5 reveals a far more convicting and heart-searching standard … Continue reading "A Deeper Understanding of the 7th Commandment"

Patti shares her journey from struggling with undiagnosed vision issues to becoming a leading expert in reflex integration and neuro-optometric rehabilitation. She explains how primitive reflexes act as neurological "codes" that, when disrupted by brain injury, can lead to symptoms like emotional dysregulation, balance issues, and sensory overload.Patti dives into practical strategies for reintegrating these reflexes, including movement exercises, visualization techniques, and sensory stimulation. She also highlights the importance of a team approach, involving neuro-optometrists, OTs, and other specialists, to restore optimal brain function. Listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of how vision, reflexes, and sensory processing interconnect—and how addressing these foundational systems can accelerate recovery.Resources Mentioned:Patti's Website: sensoryfocus.comWork Email: info@sensoryfocus.comBook: Indicators of Primitive and Postural Reflexes by Patti AndrichNeuro-Optometric Resources:COVD.ORG (College of Optometrists in Vision Development)NORA Vision Rehab (Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association)Contact info:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/patti-andrich-2298a3134 Instagram: @thevisiondevelopmentteamIf you would like to sign up for a free concussion coaching consultation with me to learn how you can understand and manage your symptoms, speed up your recovery, and get your life back following a concussion, click here: https://theconcussioncoach.com/contact
Everyone is looking for happiness. Being happy is a wonderful way to feel. But the reality of life is that happiness can be difficult to achieve and more difficult to hang onto. In this message, I look at how to find happiness in the context of Peter’s clear teaching on discipleship. 05.28.25.How.to.Find.Happiness.Tim.McCool
Jesus tells us that in order for a man to find his life he must first lose it. That might seem like an unusual statement if we only look at it from a superficial perspective. In this sermon, Brother Luke looks at the life of Paul to get a better understanding of what it means …
Everyone agrees that the plant you grow will always be the same as the seed you plant. Corn seeds don’t yield apple trees. The Bible is clear that we will reap what we sow. If we sow to the flesh we will reap destruction. Our problem as children of God is not a lack of understanding this, but it comes …
In the series from I Thessalonians, I look at a statement made by the Apostle Paul. He says that the church at Thessalonica was appointed to afflictions. When we are in the fire of afflictions, the heat shows what is in our heart. In this message, I look at how we face affliction and how …
In today's broadcast of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett continues our study through the Sermon on the Mount by examining Christ's words concerning the commandment, “Thou shalt not kill.” While many in Jesus' day limited this command to literal murder, Jesus revealed its deeper meaning—warning against unrighteous anger, insults, and heart-level contempt. We consider … Continue reading "A Deeper Understanding of the 6th Commandment"
Most of the rhetoric today uses the second coming of Christ to strike fear in our minds. If a preacher says, “Are you ready for His coming?”, it usually refers to making sure you are eternally saved, so when He shows, you will be ready in that way. But the Bible teaches eternal salvation is …
King David desired to bring the ark of the covenant home to his new house in Jerusalem. This was a good thing. But the way David went about it, displeased the Lord. How many times do we have issues we deal with, and we go about it the wrong way? In this message, I look …
In the final message of the May meeting, Elder Graham Sims speaks about the ways in which the Lord restores vision. Sometimes it can be in a physical way like Jesus did with the blind, but sometimes it can be spiritual vision. 05.04.25.Restoring.Vision.Graham.Sims

Have we been affected by worldwide deceptions like global warming or evolution? Or have we been affected by lying? Or what about slander or gossip? Have we experienced personal attacks during opportunities to minister? Have we ever dealt with betrayal? Have we refused to forgive others? Has our family been attacked in some way? Has …

In this week's episode of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett brings a powerful message from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, focusing on Matthew 5:21–48.

This week on Words of Grace, we turn to Isaiah 42 for a stirring look at God's Chosen Servant — a prophecy that reveals the mission and character of the Lord Jesus Christ.

He didn’t clamor for attention … Continue reading "God’s Chosen Servant | Isaiah 42"
Laci and Matt are broadcasting to you from a cabin in the woods, where they're eating canned cat food with oven mitts, trying to dodge that pesky Grim Reaper. But the rats need their cheese, so here's a new episode about Final Destination (2000). (You're the rat, I guess.) It's the movie that launched one of the great horror franchises. A franchise that Matt posits is Friday the 13th for the decade of the 2000s. This series has it all: Primitive cell phones! Internet research on big ole computers! And nu-metal, nu-metal, nu-metal. And it all started here, with this movie that began life as an X-Files spec script and, even in its final form, has forgotten to take the X-Files out. That's not a bad thing.

In the Saturday morning message of our recent May meeting, Elder Graham Sims, pastor of Wilson Creek PBC near Franklin, TN, preaches from the first chapter of Ephesians.

In today’s edition of Words of Grace, Pastor Ben Winslett returns to the Sermon on the Mount with a powerful message from Matthew 5:17-20, titled “The Fulfilled Law.” Many sincere Christians wrestle with the role of the Old Testament law in the New Covenant era.

In the final days of the Judges of Israel, the times were very dark. The ministry of that time was cruel. Worship was corrupt. The people were complacent, and families were dysfunctional. This led to there being no open vision from God. Although this sounds like a page out of the present culture, it was …
In a previous message from I Thessalonians, I looked at what a church should expect out of their preacher. Paul first described his manner as being like a gentle mother.
