A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

These persecuted believers appear to have experienced a decline in engagement due to persecution, ostracism, apostasy, and arrogance. So, the author addresses this faltering engagement by giving them a call to action; specifically, to provoke and encourage one another.

At some point this week, something provoked you to anger—but what was it?In today's episode, we conclude our four-part sermon series from the archives, Loving Your City. In this final message, Paul turns to Acts 17, where the Apostle Paul is provoked—not by personal inconvenience, but by the idolatry filling the city of Athens. Are you stirred by the idolatry in your culture? True ministry begins with hearts that are provoked for the glory of God.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

Description: We can become living worship by simply saying ‘Yes' to God. Chris Mitchell, CBN Middle East Bureau Chief, felt a divine calling when he first visited Israel, recognizing it as God's land. His journey is rooted in obedience.

In part two of "Fatherhood," Duane Sherff explores the metaphor of fathers as spiritual "blacksmiths" who play a vital role in shaping their children's lives and faith. He emphasizes the importance of godly masculinity, consistent discipline, and clear boundaries, which should be guided by the Holy Spirit. Discipline should be controlled by the Holy Spirit, not as punishment, but as a loving act to prepare children for the realities of life and accountability to God. True fatherhood isn't about domination but about forging, shaping, and tempering our children for spiritual warfare and success in life.

God wants to fight for us, but we must yield to Him. When we take matters into our own hands, we are taking them out of God's hands. Be attentive to His delays and listen to His reasonings. Align yourself with Him by making sure you are doing things His way. This will not only leave room for God to work on our behalf, but it will keep us from sin. He wants to save us from ourselves. But we have to let Him.

Welcome to today's episode, where we are looking at how our words and actions affect our children's hearts? Are we nurturing them or unknowingly creating a disconnect?  We are going to start off by looking at Colossians 3:21  By obeying this verse - which calls us to not provoke our children to wrath (which is a commonly known translation). So how do we do that?  I have 6 simple ideas that will help you encourage rather than discourage your child - TBH - they are simple to talk about, but harder to implement - which makes them all the more important for us to think about and check how we are doing. Whether you're looking for reassurance or new strategies, this episode offers both hope and practical insights.   Join HEART-BOOSTERS (free) here.

Antiwar.com's Scott Horton and The Free Press's Eli Lake debate U.S. foreign policy and Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

By William Bradford - The account of the Israelites is given to us as an example. As such, we can learn from the instances when they provoked the Lord to anger, and strive to not do so ourselves!

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iran has ordered its proxy forces across the Middle East to lay low, as the regime grows increasingly concerned about the threat it faces following Donald Trump's return to the White House. Syria's new government is demanding reparations from Russia in an effort to “rebuild trust” after a high-stakes meeting between Damascus' new leadership and a Moscow delegation. A Massachusetts man is in custody after allegedly threatening to assassinate top Republicans, including newly confirmed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. And in today's Back of the Brief, the Trump Administration is revoking temporary protected status for over 600,000 Venezuelan migrants, a major shift in U.S. immigration policy.

Send us a textProverbs 22:6 instructs us to, "Train up a child in the way he should go..."and goes on to say that, "even when he is old he will not depart from it."What about when those closest to us walk away from God? Was it our responsibility to prevent it?  How does this apply, when all around us we see the kids of pastors, missionaries, and Christians in general, departing from the faith they were raised in? Is there a Biblical formula that we all seem to be missing? The four regulars share their experience of raising kids, and the delicate balance one might aim to strike of not forcing religious views upon them, but also not letting them simply roam free without spiritual direction. ------------------------Questions, comments, or feedback?

Send us a textBack in October, Theologian Wes Huff and ancient civilizations researcher Billy Carson recently had a debate on the Mark Minard podcast.Billy argues that biblical texts are inaccurate and that even the crucifixion did not happen, while Wes, a biblical scholar with expertise in ancient manuscripts, counters this position with evidence of the Bible's historical reliability and unique origins.The aftermath of the viral debate then landed Wes on The Joe Rogan Experience, where Wes was able to share in detail on one of the world's most influential podcasts, why the bible can be trusted.The regulars react to the debate, the episode on Rogan, and how we should rightly celebrate the public dismantling of lies. ------------------------Questions, comments, or feedback?

China appears to have ended 2024 on a high note, quietly unveiling its sixth-generation stealth fighters during their maiden test flights over Sichuan on 26 December, coinciding with Mao Zedong's 131st birth anniversary. This advancement signals China's potential for airpower superiority and self-sufficiency, despite continued restrictions on technology transfers. As tensions persist in the South China Sea, East China Sea, and Taiwan Strait, China's military progress is likely to provoke an arms race and stimulate further technological development. The real question remains whether these advancements will act as a deterrent or indicate the potential for a larger conflict on the horizon.

Hello to you listening in Svendborg, Sweden!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday and your host, Diane Wyzga.After almost 5 years and over 1,250 podcast episodes on the airwaves what have I learned in another year's worth of podcasting? This much I know: I write to be heard. I believe in the music of the spoken word and the power of the human voice to connect.  For those of you around the world in our global community you know I've been living my life out loud. I've been working out the deeper parts of my life story in public to become the best voice of myself I can be. I believe I'm called to use my voice to inform, heal, delight, illuminate, provoke, and push back on injustice, and ignorance. Why? Because if I live on a superficial level I live shallow and out of reach of the gold coins in the deep well of my life.  My podcast episodes call me to write myself into being a better person; but I don't do it alone. I rely on you. I rely on faith, family, friends, and books. To me books are the bread of life. They help fill in the gaps of what I don't know or have yet to imagine.  Someone said that writers are beggars who tell other beggars where we found bread. My episodes are a means of breaking bread with you, sharing it in the hope that you will wave to me and say, “What! You, too! I thought I was the only one.” [C.S.Lewis]Question: What have you learned in another year's worth of the work you offer to the world?You're always invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, would you subscribe and spread the word with a generous 5-star review and comment - it helps us all - and join us next time!Meanwhile, stop by my Quarter Moon Story Arts website to:✓ Check out Services I Offer,✓ For a no-obligation conversation about your communication challenges, get in touch with me today✓ Stay current with Diane as “Wyzga on Words” on Substack, LinkedIn and now Pandora RadioStories From Women Who Walk Production TeamPodcaster: Diane F Wyzga & Quarter Moon Story ArtsMusic: Mer's Waltz from Crossing the Waters by Steve Schuch & Night Heron MusicAll content and image © 2019 to Present Quarter Moon Story Arts.

Canada's MAID program (medical assistance in dying) is one of many Euthanasia-based medical practices worldwide, existing as a legal means of ending one's life in the case of those whose death is “reasonably foreseeable.” Is there mercy in ending someone's suffering, or are we in danger of treating people as a vet would treat the terminally ill family hound?

Doug Stringer was honored to be the opening and closing speaker for the annual three-day Christian Men's Network Summit. The recent 2024 Global Summit, which had the theme "BORN TO SERVE," focused on SHAPING A NEW GENERATION OF SERVANT LEADERS. In this episode, Doug Stringer dives deep into the power of serving others and living with a purpose beyond ourselves. Doug shares inspiring stories from relief efforts in Appalachian communities hit by hurricanes. He illustrates how, when people come together, the impact multiplies like a "net" that catches far more than any one person could. He emphasizes that, as followers of Christ, we're called to let our light shine—not just for us, but to draw others closer to God.Doug's message speaks to the heart: we're born for more, born to serve, and born with a purpose greater than ourselves. He reminds us that true miracles happen behind the scenes, often unnoticed by others but fully seen by God. For anyone feeling stuck or looking for purpose, this episode is a powerful reminder that we are made to serve, reconcile, and bring hope to a hurting world. When we step into our calling with humility and courage, we allow God to work through us to change lives—starting with our own.Click here for SHOW NOTES.Share this message with a friend and subscribe for weekly encouragement and inspiration!Visit AWordInSeasonPodcast.org for a free 30-Day Devotional, Show Notes, and to see previous guests.Learn more at: SomebodyCares.org and join us to support this ministry and disaster response efforts.You can also receive weekly Provoke-a-Thought emails, monthly teaching emails, periodic ministry updates, or join our prayer team by signing up here!FOLLOW US ON:Facebook: @SomebodyCaresAmericaYoutube: SomebodyCaresAmericaRumble: SomebodyCares orTwitter: _SomebodyCares.Instagram: SomebodyCaresAmericaLinkedIn: Somebody Cares America

Not gonna lie: Copywriting is tough. Especially for websites. You have to do so much all at once. Communicate messages. Maintain interest. Stay in voice. Persuade people. Provide reassurance. Provoke desire. Impress Google.  Like any skill or craft, it takes a long time to get good at it.  And like any skill, when you get training and insights from an expert it shaves years off the learning curve. Obviously, you want to bring in experts for important projects like your website. But I get it, not everyone can afford to hire someone who's incredible at their craft. Today, I bring on my wife, business partner, and copywriting expert, Katy Taylor Jacobson, to share 8 copywriting hacks to make it easier to write copy on your website. So if you're trying to DIY your website with copywriting on your own, stay tuned, because you're about to get a crash course in what to do and not do when you sit down at the keyboard. https://ideaction-consulting-9.showitpreview.com/3-ways-to-book-when-slow-workshop
