In this teaching, Pastor Brandon examines what it means to “sell yourself to do evil” (1 Kings 21) and the serious implications of this contractual, covenantal language. From Ahab and Jezebel's idolatry to modern-day occult practices, he shows how selling oneself to sin is a transactional surrender to demonic authority—but also how God provides a way back through repentance and restoration.   You'll also hear insights into: ✅ How Jezebel introduced false gods into Israel   ✅ Why Ahab's weakness allowed the Jezebel spirit to thrive   ✅ The biblical truth behind “selling your soul” and demonic covenants   ✅ Why no covenant with the occult is permanent—freedom is always possible through Christ   ✅ The Hebraism of God “removing His face” and the danger of being out of fellowship   ✅ The seriousness of sin, repentance, and walking in covenant blessing   ✅ The true meaning of being strong in the Lord—not fleshly strength, but strength in His promises   The call is clear: Don't be deceived by false power or worldly gain. The enemy may offer fame, wealth, or seduction, but it always comes at a price of destruction. True blessing is found in fellowship with God and in ministering to others through the strength He provides.   For more teachings and resources, visit:

In this compelling episode of 1819 News: The Podcast, host Bryan Dawson, CEO of 1819 News, sits down with Cam Ward, Director of the Alabama Bureau of Pardons and Paroles, to tackle the critical issue of prison reentry and public safety in Alabama. With a shared passion for balancing a tough-on-crime stance with practical solutions, Ward and Dawson dive into the innovative Parole Reentry Program (PREP) Center in Perry County. Ward shares how the program equips formerly incarcerated individuals with job training, mental health support, and substance abuse treatment to reduce recidivism and transform lives. From welding to treeline trimming, the PREP Center partners with private sector companies to provide real career opportunities, boasting a 0% recidivism rate among its 450+ graduates.

A storm of lace bodices and shattered dreams erupts as Trixie and Katya revisit Episodes 5 and 6, where the workroom transformed into a bloody battlefield and destiny itself teetered on stilettos. Katya, radiant yet tormented, recalls the soaring ecstasy of comedic victory before plunging into the abyss of crippling self-doubt, her every glance a silent scream for redemption. With the dual crucibles of Shakespearean tragedy and a sinister Snatch Game, crowns were forged and egos were obliterated. The legendary Ru Hollywood Stories challenge unfurled like a telenovela within a telenovela, blurring fiction and truth in a tempest of wigs and weeping. In this operatic retelling, Trixie and Katya render the runway not as mere fabric and dime store wigs, but as an altar upon which laughter, heartbreak, and RuPaul's merciless decree were sacrificed in the name of drag divinity.

Aug. 26, 2025-Bottle redemption centers have been sounding the alarm about a fiscal crisis for years, but no relief has been coming from state lawmakers in Albany. We get an update on the situation from Jade Eddy, owner of MT Returnables.

Study on Prophecy: Daniel, Revelation, and Heavenly LivingEdward led a Bible study on prophecy, emphasizing the books of Daniel and Revelation and exploring God's plan for Israel and His heavenly people. He highlighted the need for submission to the Holy Spirit's guidance, understanding one's identity in Christ, and living under God's heavenly governance. The discussion covered anointing, divine love, spiritual warfare, faith, and the eternal rewards that await believers. Edward stressed that true experience of God's love requires a submitted will and reliance on Christ's completed work.Themes:Prophecy and God's plan for Israel and the ChurchSubmission to the Holy Spirit and divine guidanceUnderstanding prophecy through a submitted willLiving under God's heavenly governanceBiblical anointing and Christ as the unshakable foundation (Matt. 16:18)Faith and prayer in spiritual warfareDivine love and identity in Christ (Rom. 6)Redemption and God's eternal purpose (Adam and Eve, Psalm 147)Salvation through Christ's completed work and avoidance of legalismScripture References:Daniel; Revelation; Psalm 22; Psalm 23; Matthew 16:18; Romans 6; Psalm 147

Episode 2.33Father of Faith: The Life and Legacy of Abraham – Episode 4The Abrahamic Covenant isn't just ancient history—it's the backbone of redemptive history. In this episode, Zach and Michael trace the stunning promises God gave to Abraham—land, offspring, and blessing to the nations—and how they stretch all the way to Jesus Christ. From Genesis 12 to Galatians 3, we unpack how God's unilateral covenant, formalized through land grants and sealed with circumcision, finds ultimate fulfillment in the gospel. How do the promises to Abraham shape our hope today? What's the connection between circumcision and Christ? And why does God swearing an oath by Himself matter for our assurance?Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/Ndc9hB2qvPQMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

My guest in this interview is Michael “Mike” Morawski. Mike is a seasoned real estate investor, coach, author, and public speaker with more than 30 years of experience transforming challenges into opportunities. Over his career, he has managed in excess of $285 million in real estate transactionsHowever, Mike's journey deeply resonates beyond dollars and deals. During the 2008 financial crisis, he made a bold—but ultimately misguided—decision to move funds between properties without informing investors. That lapse in judgment led to a 10‑year federal prison sentence for fraudYet, behind every setback lies a comeback. While incarcerated, Mike not only turned inward but also built upward—earning a degree in theology and authoring two books. He emerged more physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually grounded than ever beforeApple PodcastsToday, Mike leverages the wisdom born from both success and failure to guide hundreds of real estate investors toward meaningful and ethical wealth-building.

We will journey through some of the most powerful short stories ever told–stories that have shaped Christian faith for centuries. These are not just simple moral lessons. These are Kingdom revelations. With simple images– a tree, a lost coin, a house being built– Jesus opens our eyes to the beauty of God's heart, our need for salvation, and what it means to live in His Kingdom under His reign.The parables are how Jesus invites us in. They are windows into the heart of God and mirrors revealing our own. They confront us, comfort us, and ultimately call us to respond to the good news that God's Kingdom has drawn near in Jesus.This week, Pastor Warren Williams teaches out of Luke 7:41-50WEBSITETo learn more about Redemption Tempe, find ways to get involved,  or opportunities to serve, visit our website: https://tempe.redemptionaz.com.OUR APPDownload our app redtem.in/tempeappOR text "tempe app" to 77977STAY CONNECTEDFacebook:    / redemptiontempe.  .Twitter:    / redemptiontem  Instagram:    / redemptiontempe..  .GIVINGEverything we have is a gift from the Lord because He owns it all.

Lift Up Your Heads, Your Redemption Is NearLuke 21:5-38The Village Chapel - 08/24/2025The Olivet Discourse in Luke's gospel (and its synoptic counterparts) is one of the most debated texts in the history of biblical scholarship….. We cannot know with certainty what Jesus himself did not choose to fully reveal — the timing of his return. But Jesus gave his disciples reasons to be encouraged amidst warnings of earthly catastrophe, divine wrath, and the persecution that would come with following him. This encouragement is worth applying to our own discipleship as we await our Lord's promised return.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Spiritually, many of us live in that condition. We may still be breathing, moving, even “practicing our faith”—but inside, our souls are gasping. The light has dimmed. We're less than fully alive, drifting in weariness, woundedness, or distraction.Here's the good news: God has provided the means for spiritual resuscitation. His Word, His Sacraments, His Spirit—all are given to flood our lungs with grace, to restart the heart, to breathe new fire into our sails. Jesus is not content for us to survive; He came that we might have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10).This week on IGNITE Radio Live, we open the Gospel (Luke 14:1, 7–14) and identify 7 Keys to Soul-Resuscitation—practical ways to recognize where the Enemy has lulled us into spiritual unconsciousness, and how to cooperate with the Holy Spirit to awaken joy, peace, and the vitality of heaven here and now.God is calling. His grace is waiting. A resuscitated soul awaits those who will hear and receive.

SIXTY YEARS AFTER THE CRIME REMAINS UNANSWERED:   8/8: The Long Reckoning: A Story of War, Peace, and Redemption in Vietnam –by  George Black  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Long-Reckoning-Story-Redemption-Vietnam/dp/0593534107 The American war in Vietnam has left many long-lasting scars that have not yet been sufficiently examined. The worst of them were inflicted in a tiny area bounded by the demilitarized zone between North and South Vietnam and the Ho Chi Minh Trail in neighboring Laos. That small region saw the most intense aerial bombing campaign in history, the massive use of toxic chemicals, and the heaviest casualties on both sides. In The Long Reckoning, George Black recounts the inspirational story of the small cast of characters—veterans, scientists, and Quaker-inspired pacifists, and their Vietnamese partners—who used their moral authority, scientific and political ingenuity, and sheer persistence to attempt to heal the horrors that were left in the wake of the military engagement in Southeast Asia. Their intersecting story is one of reconciliation and personal redemption, embedded in a vivid portrait of Vietnam today, with all its startling collisions between past and present, in which one-time mortal enemies, in the endless shape-shifting of geopolitics, have been transformed into close allies and partners.

Luis Espinoza grew up in Waterbury, Connecticut, surrounded by crime, addiction, and chaos. With a mother in and out of jail, he dropped out of high school and started hanging around the wrong crowd. By 22, he was sentenced to 18 months in prison—but just three months in, Luis made a desperate move: he tried to escape. After being captured only hours later, he was forced to face the reality of life behind bars. In this episode, Luis opens up about his troubled childhood, his escape attempt, what prison was really like, and how he finally turned his life around after incarceration. #PrisonEscape #LifeAfterPrison #PrisonStories #PrisonEscapeStory #TrueCrimePodcast #PrisonLife #AddictionRecovery #redemptionstory Connect with Luis Espinoza on his instagram pages: @theknowledgegod @badshapeltd @saintsandsinnerstattoostudio Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Intro & Childhood Overview 02:00 Growing Up Through Chaos 12:00 Early Influences & Life Lessons 21:00 Teen Years 29:00 First Brush With the Law & Probation 36:00 Life Spirals 47:00 Adulthood: Fatherhood & Setbacks 01:00:00 Escalating Trouble & Prison Time 01:14:00 The Infamous Prison Escape 01:27:00 Consequences: Administrative Segregation 01:38:00 New Bonds & Prison Politics 01:47:00 Transformation & Preparing for Release 01:56:00 Back To Freedom & Life After Prison 02:03:00 Family Tragedy & Turning Point 02:07:00 Redemption, Routine & Reflection 02:10:00 Advice for the Next Generation & Closing Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    Robin: EVERYTHING WAS HOLY….       What are five things no one would know about Burt Ward who played Robin in the TV show Batman?   ### 1. **A Speed-Reading Sensation**   Before hitting the big time, young Burt became an accomplished speed-reader. He was tested before the American Medical Society in Beverly Hills and clocked a staggering **30,000 words per minute with 90% comprehension**—far beyond average reading speeds. ([Classic Movie Hub - CMH][1], [TV Banter][2])   ---   ### 2. **World's Youngest Professional Ice Skater**   At just **two years old**, Burt was featured in the magazine *Strange as It Seems* as the **world's youngest professional ice skater**, thanks to a traveling ice show owned by his father. ([Wikipedia][3], [Classic Movie Hub - CMH][1])   ---   ### 3. **He Did (Most of) His Own Dangerous Stunts**   Unlike many stars, Burt performed most of his own stunts, even though his face made using a stunt double difficult. This led to multiple emergency room visits—**dozens**, he says—due to injuries from stunts like being tied to a table with a real buzz saw inches away or suspended above Bengal tigers. ([Wikipedia][3], [Express][4])   A Reddit user humorously shared one of Burt's more wild stories, recalling how during one stunt he was flung from the Batmobile when the door unexpectedly opened—and cracked an arm. ([Reddit][5])   ---   ### 4. **Musical Collaborations with Frank Zappa**   During *Batman*'s peak, Burt recorded several tracks produced by Tom Wilson and arranged by Frank Zappa. Notably, he released a single featuring "Boy Wonder, I Love You" (written by Zappa) and a cover of "Orange Colored Sky." ([Wikipedia][3], [Classic Movie Hub - CMH][1])   ---   ### 5. **Rescue Work for Giant-Breed Dogs**   Beyond Hollywood, Burt—and his wife Tracy—devoted themselves to canine welfare. In **1994**, they founded *Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions*, significantly impacting the lives of giant-breed dogs. Their nonprofit has facilitated **over 15,500 adoptions** and often houses around **50 dogs at home** awaiting forever families. ([Wikipedia][3], [People.com][6]) Additionally, their company *Gentle Giants* produces natural pet food aimed at boosting pets' longevity and wellbeing. ([People.com][6])   ---   ### Bonus Tidbits:   * Burt actually chose his own stage name: swapping “Gervis” for *Ward* (his mother's maiden name) and altering “Bert” to “Burt” because it had more punch. ([Wikipedia][3], [Classic Movie Hub - CMH][1]) * He holds a **Guinness World Record** for portraying the same live-action superhero in the most episodes (120 as Robin). ([Facts.net][7], [The Famous People][8]) * In **2020**, Burt received a star on the **Hollywood Walk of Fame**—a fitting tribute to the iconic Boy Wonder. ([Hollywood Walk of Fame][9])   To understand the deep meaning of redemption in Greek scripture, it is essential to explore the key terms used by New Testament writers, primarily agorazō and its cognates (exagorazō), and lytron with its related forms (apolytrōsis, lytrōsis). These words paint a picture of redemption as a decisive, costly, and legally binding rescue from the slavery of sin and its consequences.  Key Greek words for redemption Agorazō (ἀγοράζω) and exagorazō (ἐξαγοράζω) The verb agorazō means "to buy or purchase" and is derived from agora, the Greek marketplace or slave market. The related verb exagorazō, which means "to buy out or buy from," intensifies this meaning.  Bought at a price: The use of agorazō emphasizes that humanity was on the auction block of sin but has been purchased by Christ. Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 6:20, "For you were bought with a price" (ēgorasthēte timēs), underscoring the high cost of this purchase. Freedom from the Law: The more intensive term exagorazō highlights a targeted purchase designed to remove something or someone from their previous state. For example, Galatians 4:5 says Christ came to "redeem those who were under the law" (exagorazō tous hupo nomon). This signifies not just a general purchase but a deliberate act of freeing people from the curse and bondage of the Law.  Lytron (λύτρον), apolytrōsis (ἀπολύτρωσις), and lytrōsis (λύτρωσις) This cluster of words emphasizes the idea of a ransom payment that brings about release. Lytron (ransom price): Lytron specifically refers to the monetary price paid to free a slave or captive. In Matthew 20:28 and Mark 10:45, Jesus says he came "to give his life as a ransom (lytron) for many," directly comparing his death to a payment made to secure the freedom of others. Apolytrōsis (completed redemption): The preposition apo is an intensifier, making apolytrōsis a "stronger form" of the word that denotes a complete and finalized liberation. This is the word used when describing the future, full redemption of believers' bodies at the resurrection (Romans 8:23) and the day of ultimate redemption (Ephesians 4:30). Lytrōsis (the experience of release): This noun refers to the deliverance or liberation that results from the payment of a ransom. Hebrews 9:12 explains that Christ "obtained eternal redemption (lytrōsis) for us".  The holistic and progressive nature of redemption The deep meaning of redemption in the Greek New Testament moves beyond a simple, one-time transaction to a multi-faceted and progressive work of God.  Past: An accomplished fact The price for sin has been paid through Christ's death on the cross, accomplishing a decisive and objective redemption for all believers. The sacrifice of Christ is the ultimate ransom (lytron), securing our justification and the forgiveness of sins (Romans 3:24).  Present: An ongoing reality The power of redemption is at work in believers' lives, delivering them from sin's power and purifying them to be a people for God's possession (Titus 2:14). As part of this transformation, believers are no longer slaves to sin but bondservants of righteousness (Romans 6:18).  Future: A complete deliverance Redemption is not yet fully realized. Believers "groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies" (Romans 8:23). The final stage of redemption will be the complete liberation from corruption and the resurrection of our bodies when Christ returns (Luke 21:28).  A covenantal and communal significance Understanding the Greek word for redemption also brings with it significant implications for our relationship with God and others.  A treasured possession (peripoiēsis) 1 Peter 2:9 refers to believers as "a people for his own possession (peripoiēsis)." The Greek term highlights that God did not simply purchase us to release us, but to acquire and preserve us as his treasured property. This identity echoes the Old Testament concept of Israel as God's segullah, his special, prized possession.  Motivating holiness - HOLY MOTIVATION BATMAN The knowledge that we belong to God motivates believers to live holy lives and not grieve the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30). The infinite cost of our redemption, the blood of Christ (1 Peter 1:18–19), calls believers to live not for themselves but for Christ.
