THE VIBE with Kelly Cardenas presents What does a sold-out Madison Square Garden, a live podcast, and Proverbs 29 have in common? Everything.In this episode, Kelly Cardenas reflects on seeing Kill Tony sell out Madison Square Garden—18,000 people filling the world's most famous arena, not for a concert or comedy show, but for a podcast. This sparks a bigger question handed down from his pops: “Boy, how big is God? He's only as big as you'll get out of the way and allow Him to be.”Through wisdom from Proverbs 29, Kelly shares practical steps on how to let God be God in your life—by listening instead of resisting, seeking justice, speaking life, cherishing wisdom, staying calm, and putting in the work.This is more than inspiration; it's proof that God-sized dreams are real. Just like Kill Tony in the Garden, what seems impossible today could be the breakthrough that changes everything tomorrow.If you've ever doubted what's possible in your own life, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Jenna discusses the significance of Proverbs 31, focusing on the ideal wife and her contributions to the household. She contrasts this with the harsher views presented in Sirach 25, emphasizing the value and impact a wife has on her family. Jenna reflects on her own experiences and the importance of uplifting her household, while also acknowledging the challenges of balancing responsibilities. This episode encourages listeners to strive for the ideal wife as depicted in Proverbs 31, recognizing the worth of their contributions, no matter how small.
We live in a world where the price tags have been switched. The values of God are reduced, and the values of this Earth are inflated. Given a choice between wealth and wisdom, many would choose money. Dr. John echoes Solomon's teaching on the riches of wisdom. We are reminded that since we are not born wise, the first rule of wisdom is: get wisdom! No one who is willing to pay that price will lose.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise? If any Christian isn't sure of the answer, then Proverbs has something to say! In this 10-message series, Dr. John will point us to wisdom that shapes our living. Proverbs doesn't guarantee us wealth or popularity, but it does promise the blessings of God.
A new MP3 sermon from Bible Believers Fellowship is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: 746 Words of the Transgressor (Proverbs 22:12) Our Daily Greg Subtitle: Expository Study: Proverbs Speaker: Gregory A.

Proverbs 4:7, which says, “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding” (KJV). Living in wisdom and understanding is crucial for every believer. It helps us navigate life's challenges and build meaningful relationships while maintaining our godliness.James 3:17 (NIV): “But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.”Main Message:Relating with Others: As Christians, we are called to live in the world but not be of the world. This means we should not isolate ourselves or act as though we are superior to others. Jesus Himself interacted with all kinds of people, showing love and compassion. Being a Christian doesn't mean you shop at a different market, breathe different air, or walk under a different sun. Learn to relate with people, be friendly, and exhibit strong character while maintaining your godliness. This is what distinguished Joseph in Egypt, Daniel in Babylon, Esther in Persia, Ruth in Bethlehem, and Jesus in His ministry.Exhibiting Strong Character: Joseph, Daniel, Esther, and Ruth are excellent examples of individuals who lived in wisdom and understanding. Joseph's integrity and wisdom led him to become a powerful leader in Egypt (Genesis 41:39-40).

PART 2 3. Some important quotes stand out! 4. His comments about the ROD are really good in chapter 11 Children are not born morally and ethically neutral If they are they don't need correction, just direction If they are not, then they need correction Our child's problem is that he or she is a sinner! p. 102. Folly is the problem we have to address according to proverbs Folly is not childishness Folly describes the person who does not fear God A fools life is run by his desires and fears The fool lives out of the immediacy of his lusts, cravings, expectations, hopes, and fears The issue is authority Will a child live under the authority of God and his parents? Will he/she live under their own authority? All children choose to live under their own authority: I don't want my diaper changed I don't want to sit quietly at the table during this meal You are going to make me and if you do I will scream and throw a huge fit Leave this to take root and grow, and it produces “a rebellious teenager who will not allow anyone to rule him.” “God has ordained the rod of discipline for this condition.” p. 103 “Confrontation, with the immediate and undeniably tactile sensation of a spanking, renders an implacable child sweet.” (p. 103) The quote on p 103 is massively important The function of the rod It imparts wisdom Pr 29:15, which is tied to the fear of god “It creates an atmosphere in which instruction can be given. The spanking renders the child compliant and ready to receive life-giving words.” (p 104) Tripp deals with the question - don't all children eventually learn to obey? He say NO!! Proverbs 29:15, 17 The rod defined - p. 104 “The rod is a parent, in faith toward God and faithfullness toward his or her children, undertaking the responsibility of careful, timely, measured, and controlled use of physical punishment to underscore the importance of obeying God, thus rescuing the child from continuing in his foolishness unto death.” It is a parental exercise It is an act of faith in God and His Word It is an act of faithfulness - an expression of love and comitment It is an act of responsibility - not a parent determining to punish, but a parent determining to obey It is an act of physical punishment Not venting or parental anger Not frustration Not based on a feeling of my child is bothering me It is always measured and controlled It is a rescue mission Rescues the child from continuing in foolishness To ignore your child's rebellion against God's authority is to ultimately brings God's greater chastisement into their lives. The Rod clarified Not unbridled temper Not the right to hit my child Not venting or frustration not retribution Not payment but restoration Not vindictive The Rod objected I love my child too much too spank You love yourself too much to spank them I am afraid I will hurt them “Biblically-balanced discipline never physically endangers a child” I am afraid it will make him rebellious and angry Proverbs 29:17 teaches the exact opposite I am afraid it will teach them to hit Only if you spank in anger It doesn't work It doesn't when you spank in anger or out-of-control It doesn't when you are inconsistent It doesn't when you fail to be persistent It doesn't when you aren't effective I could be arrested for child abuse Only spank in the privacy of your home and do it right

This episode of Conversations with Christians Engaged is part of our Stories from America series, featuring believers making a real impact in culture. In this episode, Bunni Pounds sits down with constitutional attorney Keisha Russell of First Liberty Institute to discuss her new book on defending religious freedom.Keisha shares her journey from teaching special education in Atlanta to becoming one of the nation's leading defenders of religious liberty. Together, Bunni and Keisha dive deep into why the First Amendment matters for every believer, how Christians can boldly exercise their rights, and why fear should never keep us from living out our faith in public.They explore real cases—from Coach Kennedy's historic win at the Supreme Court to believers standing firm in schools and workplaces—and unpack the cultural misunderstandings around “separation of church and state.” Keisha reminds us that defending freedom isn't just about courtrooms; it's about inspiring everyday Christians to know the truth, stand firm, and proclaim the gospel without fear.

We often think of education as a means to make a living - a job, career. The wisdom of Solomon points in a different direction. God provides wisdom to make a life - a life blessed by God's ways. In this study of Proverbs 1-9, Dr. John highlights the wisdom of God for the young and old. We will find that the wisdom which helps us make a life, will provide all the goodness of living.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise? If any Christian isn't sure of the answer, then Proverbs has something to say! In this 10-message series, Dr. John will point us to wisdom that shapes our living. Proverbs doesn't guarantee us wealth or popularity, but it does promise the blessings of God.

Due to technical difficulties, the first portion of this message is pre-recorded, the final section is live. Self-control is inner strength supplied by God. Our behavior flows from our beliefs - and true self-control isn't about trying harder through willpower, but about connecting deeper to God's power and letting His Spirit transform us from within. "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7).
September 1, 2025Today's Reading: Proverbs 25:2-10Daily Lectionary: 1 Kings 18:1-19; Ephesians 1:1-23“Do not reveal another's secret, lest he who hears you bring shame upon you, and your ill repute have no end.” (Proverbs 25:9b-10)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Some words were never meant to be said. Proverbs teaches that the secrets of your neighbor are not to be shared. A secret is anything kept from general awareness that would bring shame if it were revealed. Whether it's a secret crush, a regrettable past incident, or a fear few others know, no one likes to have their secrets made public.Sometimes you have to speak, though. If the secret is dangerous to that person or to others, or to someone's property, this should not stay secret. Because this is no longer about covering shame. This is about protecting a person. If a friend tells you he is suicidal, you need to tell people in authority who can help. The friend might not want you to. They might say they won't trust you again if you do tell. But you need to help that person, and there are good ways to work through this situation. One good way is to encourage the other person that they should tell their harmful secret to people who love them. Parents, teachers, pastors, police officers, God gave us these authorities for such reasons. But promise to be with your friend the whole way and support them as they reveal their secret. It may be hard for them, but it is easier if you or another friend is with them.Where someone could be harmed, a secret must be told, and in the best situation, by the person who has that secret himself. But where it's a matter of covering someone's shameful and regretted words, actions, or thoughts, then secrets should be kept hidden. In Eden, God covered Adam and Eve's shame by clothing them with animal skins. God did not speak about how shameful they were. Instead, God shed blood - the first blood shed in Scripture - as a way to cover the shame of our first parents. Jesus likewise covers shame by His blood. Romans 10:11 says, “Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.” So Jesus takes our shame away as the pure Gospel that faith clings to is preached. The Lord's Supper likewise applies Jesus' blood on you. And shame is covered and removed.Proverbs directs us to speak like God. Since God does not uncover shame, let us not uncover our neighbor's shame. Let us speak the truth in love, having love so that our neighbor's personal shame is not revealed. In this way, we treat our neighbor the way that God has treated us.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Help us that we Thy saving Word In faithful hearts may treasure; Let e'er that Bread of Life afford New grace in richest measure. O make us die to every sin, Each day create new life within, That fruits of faith may flourish. (LSB 693:2)Rev.

In this episode of the Unlocking Greatness Podcast, I share how wisdom... God's wisdom... can transform fear into clarity, and uncertainty into action. Drawing from Proverbs 3, I walk through how leaning on our own understanding only keeps us stuck, but seeking God's guidance opens the doors we never thought possible. From financial stress to personal struggles, we can find favor, understanding, and direction when we invite God into every choice, every plan, and every fear.This is your reminder: you don't have to face life's challenges alone. You don't have to let fear rule your decisions. Let's seek wisdom together, let's grow, and let's unlock the clarity and favor that has always been waiting for you… because the path to greatness begins when we stop leaning on our own understanding and start leaning on His!The audiobook for “necessary.” by Zenja Glass is now available as 'Pay What You Want' exclusively at https://www.UnlockingGreatness.comAvailable also as a paperback worldwide via Amazon.

Guest speaker Shane Winnings, CEO of Promise Keepers and former missionary, delivers a powerful message at Godspeak Calvary Chapel from Philippians 1, challenging believers to endure trials with unwavering faith and to live for Christ's glory rather than worldly pursuits. Reflecting on his military and police background, including a grueling Seattle Marathon with a rucksack, Winnings emphasizes that true spiritual strength emerges through suffering, drawing parallels to Paul's joy in prison. He urges the congregation to shift their perspective from fitting Christ into life's plans to making Him the pursuit, using the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego's resolve to trust God “even if” He doesn't deliver. Winnings' closing prayer calls for repentance and a renewed focus on Christ, aligning with Godspeak's mission of biblical application and cultural engagement.Reference VersesProverbs 11 verse 30, Matthew 13 verses 3–23, Romans 5 verses 3–5, Psalm 139 verse 8, Matthew 6 verses 25–34, Philippians 1 verses 1–30, Philippians 2 verses 14–16, 1 John 3 verse 2, 1 John 4 verse 17, John 17 verse 3, Romans 6 verse 23, Proverbs 16 verse 9, Daniel 3 verses 16–18, 1 Peter 4 verse 12, Matthew 19 verse 24Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information! https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

Join us for this insightful episode as we dive into the final part of our series on integrity, just in time for Labor Day weekend! In this episode, we explore the concept of integrity and how it relates to our faith and actions as followers of Jesus. We discuss the importance of understanding what it truly means to be good and how it can sometimes lead to being judgmental without actually doing good for others. Jesus introduced a radical new way of thinking that challenges the traditional religious systems, emphasizing that our integrity should guide us beyond ourselves and into the lives of those around us. As we prepare for our upcoming series, "The Fundamental List," we encourage you to reflect on your own beliefs and how they align with the teachings of Jesus. Whether you're a long-time follower of Christ or someone deconstructing your faith, this episode is for you. Don't forget to invite a friend who might be struggling with their faith, and remember, our integrity is not just about us—it's about how we impact the world around us. Key Topics: The definition of integrity and its importance in our lives The difference between being good and doing good Jesus' radical teachings and their implications for our faith How to leverage our integrity for the benefit of others Tune in now and discover how your integrity can guide you to make a positive impact in your community! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are an alternative to church as usual.

So many Christians believe that money is evil, when in reality the Bible makes it clear that the love of money is the root of all evil. That's a big difference! This truth is especially important to understand, because real wealth is defined by God, not by us. And based on what we learn from the book of Proverbs, God's definition of wealth might be something you've never even heard before. Get ready for what is one of the most revolutionary principles as it relates to the family enterprise!

Fr. Mike explains why God asks his people to surrender to King Nebuchadnezzar even though it seems contradicting. We learn that God can use evil circumstances to win the hearts of his people back. In Daniel, as we read about the vision of the ram and the goat, Fr. Mike reminds us that prophecy is always shrouded in mystery. Today we read Jeremiah 26-27, Daniel 8-9, and Proverbs 16:9-12.
