Daily Study: With God, all people are created equal and have the same value. However, society does not think this way. Society has evolved to esteem some physical characteristics and social standings as more valuable than others. For example, if you're the right color, the right height, or the right gender, then you may have an advantage over somebody who's doesn't have one of those characteristics or features. This isn't fair; however, God can use a social privilege for his purposes. So if you have a privilege, don't automatically push it away; instead, allow God to use it.

In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver engages with Dr. David Allen Black to discuss the synoptic gospels, the synoptic problem, and the historical origins of the gospels. They explore the significance of external evidence, the role of the Church Fathers, and the implications of Markan priority. Dr. Black presents his fourfold gospel hypothesis, emphasizing the need for historical context in understanding the development of the gospels. The conversation also addresses common concerns regarding the reliability of the gospels and the importance of examining evidence critically.This video explores the **two source hypothesis** related to the origins of the Gospels in the Bible. The speaker explains how understanding this theory can impact the way people interpret biblical texts, and how it is related to the **synoptic problem**.-The term 'synoptic' means to view the gospels together.-The synoptic problem may not be a problem at all. -External evidence is often overlooked in gospel studies.-Markan priority is a dominant theory, but has its challenges. -The early church unanimously believed Matthew was the first gospel.-Historical context is crucial for understanding the gospels.-The Church Fathers provide valuable insights into gospel authorship.-The Q hypothesis is speculative and lacks concrete evidence.-The Christian faith is rooted in historical evidence.-Scholars should be approached with caution; personal investigation is essential.00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guest01:31 Understanding the Synoptic Gospels04:59 Exploring the Synoptic Problem05:19 Three Lines of Evidence for Gospel Order 08:32 Questioning Markan Priority10:39 Historical Context of Gospel Development17:50 The Role of Early Church Fathers24:11 The Fourfold Gospel Hypothesis28:08 Unity in the Early Church 29:09 Historical Context of the Gospels30:32 Occasional Nature of New Testament Letters31:58 The Role of the Gospels in Addressing Needs33:13 Critique of Markan Priority35:30 Historical Perspectives on Gospel Origins 36:57 The Importance of Church History39:24 The Enlightenment's Impact on Gospel Scholarship41:09 The Interconnectedness of Biblical Studies43:26 The Role of Language in Understanding the Gospels45:56 Different Styles and Purposes of Gospel Writers52:13 Addressing Lay Concerns about Gospel Reliability

What happens when Western property theory meets Indigenous eco-wisdom? This Wolff Peace episode pairs John Locke with Vandana Shiva in a radical rethink of ownership, land, and peace. In this episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek contrasts the legacy of John Locke—whose ideas about liberty and property helped justify land enclosures and colonial expansion—with the work of Vandana Shiva, a scientist and activist who defends seeds, soil, and the commons. Through the lens of Robert Paul Wolff's Political Man and Social Man, we trace the roots of modern liberalism and its uneasy relationship with power and place. What might Locke and Shiva teach us about freedom, consent, and the responsibilities of being human? In this episode: A look at Locke's essay The Origins and Purposes of Political Societies Vandana Shiva's challenge to seed patents and resource privatization Two questions to spark reflection in your world Visit aviskalfsbeek.com to learn more about the podcast, books, and upcoming episodes in the Wolff Peace series.

Rom. 11:25-32. 6/1/25. An expositional sermon from the letter to the Romans.
Last week, we shared that God's dream is to be home with humanity. This calls us to see the bigger picture of His dream and surrender our own — sometimes forever, and sometimes for further refining. All of this work is to join a bigger vision not of our own making. This week, we'll explore how God's desires co-mingle with our own as we co-create and co-labor with God to bring generational dreams into the world. In the story of Abraham, God blesses him and pledges to make his “descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore.” The only problem: Abraham and his wife, Sarah, cannot have kids. Come Sunday to learn how “sands and stars” dreams are all about partnering and persevering with God for generations far beyond our own.- Series Description -What dreams do we have for our life? Are they God's dreams or our dreams? Both? Sometimes, we protect God from our own dreams, wondering if we gave into his ways and will if he would squelch our true desires. Other times, we give up on dreams understanding the call to discipleship to mean that dreams are for yesteryear. There is another way. Throughout the scriptures, God hints at what his true dream is and ways humans can partner with God with their own longings. This involves knowing God's heart, learning to wait, expecting opposition, and pairing our dreams with a call to obedience. Come bring your dreams, yourselves, and interested friends for this series.

As more families scrutinize their post-high school options for virtue and value, the field has perhaps never been wider. Choosing a path carefully, with the right balance of priorities, should be the goal for every high school graduate. Before serving as our headmaster, Mr. Alvaro de Vicente was the Heights college counselor. Over the last few decades, he's witnessed an exciting shift in the way students and their parents can evaluate, prioritize, and choose a path after graduation that serves the whole person well. And while colleges are responding more and more to these good demands, Mr. de Vicente also explores how high schools and employers could keep pace with the changes. Chapters: 2:32 Am I on the education treadmill? 4:16 Purposes of college: personal growth, financial growth 8:32 Keeping the two purposes in proper proportion 12:20 The wider field of alternatives 15:42 How high schools must respond 19:35 Peer groups on the alternative path 24:22 If virtue and value aren't in balance 27:33 The future graduate's options 29:54 The future of hiring Also on the Forum: A Short Guide to the Purposeful College Decision by Alvaro de Vicente 4/25 Advice for the College Launch featuring Alvaro de Vicente 8/24 Considerations for College-Bound Students featuring Dr. Peter Kilpatrick 5/24 The College Experience featuring Dr. Jonathan Sanford Rethinking College: Why Go?

Ep 336 show notes are here: http://www.merrittonsa.com/podcast/336 Is this dream going to be worth the effort? Maybe you've spent hours designing Canva graphics, rewriting emails, or obsessing over what people might think without ever taking a real step forward. You wonder if your dream is even valid or if you just aren't cut out for this. The truth is, you are not failing. You are distracted. And in this episode, we are naming the lies that are stealing your focus from what God is calling you to do. These three lies: perfectionism, reputation, and platform will not just delay your dream. They will discourage you from ever starting. But God has better for you. He's calling you into freedom from the pressure you have put on yourself so you can refocus on His purposes for your life. In this episode you'll learn:
