Podcasts about Refrain

At our Pa Ba Ceremony of Offering Forest Cloth on Magha Puja Full Moon, Ajahn Dhammasiha gives a Dhamma Talk about the Ovādapātimokkha:Abstain from any evil deed accomplish what is good and true, And fully purify your mind - That is what all the Buddhas teach. Enduring patience is the best of all ascetic practices; The best of everything at all is called Nibbāna by the sage. If you cause harm to anyone you can't be called a genuine monk! Refrain from harming and abuse, and strictly keep the Buddha's rules; Be moderate when taking food, and dwell alone in solitude devoted to the Higher Mind - That is what all the Buddhas teach. The Buddha recited this concise summary of the whole practice leading to Nibbāna on the full moon of Magha, at the 'Sāvaka-sannipāta', the spontaneous gathering of 1,250 Arahant Bhikkhus, all of them ordained by the Buddha himself. Ajahn Dhammasiha also explains that the Veluvana (Bamboo Grove Monastery), the location of Magha Puja, was the first monastery ever offered to the Buddha. King Bimbisāra of the Kingdom of Magadha offered a park to the sangha, located outside the gates of his capital Rajagah. The Buddha accepted it and declared that the monks are now allowed to accept property the to be owned by the sangha communally (but not by individual monks). However, the monks continued to live in the open and under trees even in the newly offered monastery. The billionaire banker of Rajagaha saw the monks still living in the open, and asked the Buddha for permission to erect buildings for them. The Buddha granted permission, and from then on numerous structures were erected and offered to the sangha.Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our email Newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest Photos⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://latest-pics.dhammagiri.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Youtube Channel:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@dhammatalksatdhammagiri8724#buddhism #buddha #buddhistmonastery #rajagaha #rajgir #maghapuja #ovadapatimokkha

'Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: he will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret – it leads only to evil. For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land,' (Psalm 37.1-8).

Ajahn Dhammasiha introduces us to the location of the event, the Bamboo Grove Monastery ('Veḷuvana') at Rājagaha, and goes through the Ovādapātimokkha line by line (By the way, it's actually 14 lines of verse in the Pāli. When Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about 16 lines, he was thinking about the English translation, which has two lines more. It can be difficult to express meaning in English as succinct as in Pali, often one requires more words in modern languages to get the meaning accross)Dhammagiri Forest Hermitage:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/news⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our email Newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dhammagiri.net/newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest Photos⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://latest-pics.dhammagiri.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Our Youtube Channel:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@dhammatalksatdhammagiri8724#buddhism #buddha #arahants #magha #maghapuja #ovadapatimokkha

Der 1000. Morgenimpuls von Schwester Katharina!"Ich selbst finde das sagenhaft. Heute ist der tausendste Morgenimpuls, den ich mit Dir und euch heute beten darf. Wenn ich mir die prallvollen Ordner mit den Texten anschaue, die seit 2018 entstanden sind, kann ich selbst nur staunen. Der Anfang war unspektakulär und kam mit der Frage vom DOMRADIO, ob ich mal für ein paar Wochen den Morgenimpuls halten könnte. Und ich hatte Lust dazu und hab mal angefangen. Und erst vor ein paar Wochen hat mich eine Hörerin ermahnt, doch mal auf Kommentare auf Youtube, die den Morgenimpuls betreffen, zu antworten. Und da ist mir erst die unglaubliche Zahl der Podcasts aufgefallen. Und dann habe ich ein bisschen nachgedacht über die Zahl 1000. Und mir sind drei Dinge dazu eingefallen.Als begeisterte Bibelleserin fiel mir natürlich sofort der Psalm 90 ein, wo es heißt, dass bei Gott 1000 Jahre sind, wie der Tag, der gestern vergangen ist, und wie eine Wache in der Nacht. Was nichts anderes bedeutet als dass bei Gott eine andere Perspektive auf Zeit und Zahlen gilt als für uns Menschen. Von Gregor Linßen gibt es ein Lied, das mir jemand geschickt hat und schon der Refrain sagt etwas zu diesem 1000. Morgenimpuls. Da heißt es: "Tausend Jahre wie ein Tag, was auch kommen mag. Du weißt um mich und meine Sorgen, morgen ist heute für dich. Tausend Jahre wie ein Tag, was auch kommen mag, ich glaub, Du weißt um mich.“ Und ein paar Zeilen weiter heißt es: "Ich glaube an Dich Gott, der du der Geist der Wahrheit bist, der in mich eingehaucht die Quelle meines Lebens ist, der mich bewirkt hat und jetzt treibt“Und es gibt im Erzbistum Paderborn eine Kommunikationsinitiative "1000 gute Gründe“, die zeigt, wofür die Gläubigen und die Kirche heute stehen können: für Mut und Zuversicht, Gemeinschaft und Engagement. Da werden Geschichten und Aktionen und Mitmachangebote gebündelt, die Menschen im Alltag stärken und positive Perspektiven eröffnen können. Und es geht immer um konkrete Menschen und ihre Erlebnisse mit denen Mitten im Alltag, Gutes und Hoffnungsvolles entstehen kannUnd das ist es auch, was mir so viel Freude macht in diesem Dienst: von Menschen und Ereignissen zu erzählen, die Hoffnung und Zuversicht geben, in Alltagsgeschichten zu spüren, dass dahinter immer der Gott des Lebens glaubhaft wirken will und oft selbst AHA – Erkenntnisse zu haben, wenn ich mich in ein Thema, eine Bibelstelle, einen Festinhalt vertiefe und mir tausend neue Lichter aufgehen. Danke schön Dir und euch fürs zuhören und mitglauben, mitbeten und mitmachen!Ich würde jetzt nicht vermessen sein und sagen: auf die nächsten 1000, aber ich freue mich auf den nächsten, auf den eintausendersten Morgenimpuls am Rosenmontag."

The death of king Josiah is given more detail in 2 Chronicles 35 (cf. 2 Chronicles 35:20-25). The account shows that God spoke to Josiah through Necho, the king of Egypt. God was warning the king not to meddle with His affairs. The account demonstrates how Josiah meddled with God, and we should avoid doing the same.

Wie schreibt man eigentlich einen richtig guten Song?Oder besser gefragt: Gibt es da überhaupt Regeln – oder ist das alles nur gut getarntes Bauchgefühl mit Gitarre? In dieser Episode sezieren wir das Songwriting bis auf die Knochen – mit Skalpell, Flammenwerfer und ein bisschen Liebe: Warum manche Songs zu kurz sind, andere viel zu lang – und einige exakt 3:33 dauern müssen, weil… keine Ahnung, Magie?Welche Songs eine brillante Strophe haben, nur um dann mit einem Refrain aus der Hölle zu überraschen.Warum Hardcore manchmal das bessere Pop-Songwriting hat als Pop selbst.Und ob ein Song überhaupt leben darf, wenn er keine Bridge hat. Dazu gibt's echte Zitate von echten Musiker*innen (versprochen – nix erfunden) und handverlesene Songs aus den letzten Jahren, die zeigen, wie wild, klug oder auch komplett bescheuert modernes Songwriting sein kann. Ob du selbst schreibst, nur mitsingst oder dich einfach nur fragst, warum dich dieser eine verdammte Akkordwechsel immer wieder zerlegt – diese Folge ist für dich......RUBRIK: Die HausaufgabeLars und Markus schlagen sich gegenseitig ein Album vor, das dann subjektiv auseinandergenommen wird.Wir vergeben Punkte zwischen 1 (mies) und 10 (genial).

This week on The Gaming Duo, we dive deep into Traveler's Refrain, the music-driven action RPG from Red Essence Games that blends combat, melody, and melancholy into a surprisingly powerful indie experience. Wielding a magical bouzouki, Traveler's Refrain asks a bold question: what if music wasn't just atmosphere but the heart of gameplay, storytelling, and self-discovery?We break down how song-casting works in combat and exploration, whether the music mechanics feel meaningful or gimmicky, and how the game balances rhythm-adjacent action without becoming a full rhythm game. From its atmospheric world design and light puzzle-solving to its emotional themes of memory, loss, and longing, we discuss who this game is really for and why its smaller scope may actually be its greatest strength.We also dig into the game's minimalist storytelling approach, pacing, and overall length, along with its biggest strengths and shortcomings. Plus, we wrap things up with our recommendation and final score.If you love emotionally driven indie games like Transistor, Hyper Light Drifter, or Death's Door, this is one journey you won't want to miss.Discord link: https://discord.gg/B7YYMvZtZ2

This week on The Gaming Duo, we're joined by Nik Hagialas, Co-Owner and Lead Artist at Red Essence Games, to talk all about their debut hand-painted action RPG, Traveler's Refrain.With over a decade of experience working on projects for Disney, Dungeons & Dragons, and Fantasy Flight Games, Nik breaks down how Traveler's Refrain came to life — from its earliest inspirations to years of development between longtime friends. We dive into the game's standout song-casting mechanic, where music drives both combat and world interaction, and how that idea evolved throughout development.To wrap things up, Nik answers our signature Gaming Duo questions, shares what he's playing right now, and offers advice for aspiring indie developers.

This guided Scripture meditation is in Psalm 37 using Lectio Divina. Waiting on God is hard. This Psalm reminds us that God will act on our behalf – in his timing and in his ways. It also reminds us to not get caught up in comparison. It will only agitate us, and nothing good comes from this. So, take a deep breath and allow the Lord to guide you into this meditation in Psalm 37. I believe he has something just for you. Here’s some links I discussed in the podcast: The guided retreat to help you move into this new year with intention is here. You can find Jodie at http://www.jodieniznik.com/ Instagram @jodieniznik Facebook @JodieGNiznik Learn more about Lectio Divina and download your free Lectio Divina Journal here. And if you’re ready to make Scripture Meditation a part of your new year, I encourage you to join my Monday email newsletter here. I’ll send out link to the newest meditation every Monday morning. Download free sample chapters from my Bible studies here. Listen to another meditation on Psalm 37 from the Summer Series 2023 here The passages we meditated on is as follows: Psalm 37:5-9, CSB 5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act, 6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like the noonday. 7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the person who carries out evil plans. 8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage; do not be agitated—it can only bring harm. 9 For evildoers will be destroyed, but those who put their hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

Eric introduces the concept of the Eisenhower Matrix as a tool for improving time management and business efficiency. This matrix is explained through its four quadrants—urgent/important, not urgent/important, urgent/not important, and not urgent/not important—and Eric emphasizes that Quadrant Two (not urgent, but important) is the "magical spot" for strategic planning and growth, encouraging listeners to delegate or eliminate tasks in the other quadrants to avoid living in a state of chaos. The discussion then broadens into how different personality types may perceive urgency and importance, with participants sharing personal anecdotes and challenges related to over-helping, procrastination, and managing staff expectations using these principles. Ultimately, Triplett advocates for a deeper understanding of one's own behavioral patterns and the matrix to improve leadership and business outcomes, citing related concepts from other business authors. Key Takeaways: Prioritize activities that are important but not urgent, which is the most effective zone for vision and future planning. Turn off phone notifications because they create false urgency for things that are not truly important. Delegate urgent and important tasks whenever possible to avoid being constantly stuck in a reactive state of "firefighting." Protect your time by learning to say "no" to other people's emergencies that are not important to your core goals. Refrain from giving customer discounts to ensure you can afford to hire teams and take care of your staff at a higher level.

The Fallacy of Stealth Mode Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Startups often choose to stay in stealth mode in the early days to protect their idea. In most cases, stealth mode doesn't help the startup and can actually hurt it. Here's the downside of going into stealth mode: It's difficult for others to help the startup because they don't know what is going on. It's harder to hire for the startup because it's a secret. You can't tell customers about it because you may reveal too much. It's difficult to talk to investors because the startup wants everyone to sign an NDA. Startups that commit fraud are often in stealth mode to hide their activities. Instead of going into stealth mode, be open about what you are doing. Refrain from explaining to everyone how you are doing it. This gives exposure to the startup for investors and customers. Consider keeping certain functions as a trade secret. Investors will appreciate the fact that you have intellectual property in the form of a trade secret. They will be less impressed by your stealth mode. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at: http://investorconnect.org Check out our other podcasts here: https://investorconnect.org/ For Investors check out: https://tencapital.group/investor-landing/ For Startups check out: https://tencapital.group/company-landing/ For eGuides check out: https://tencapital.group/education/ For upcoming Events, check out https://tencapital.group/events/ For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group Please follow, share, and leave a review.

The antiphonal nature of Psalm 136 is seen in the repeated second half of every verse: “His steadfast love endures forever.” This psalm helps us to give thanks to the LORD for His steadfast love shown forth in His work of creation, redemption, and His ongoing care for His people. For these reasons and more, we give thanks to the LORD, for He is good!  Rev. David Vandercook, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in North Little Rock, AR and Shepherd of Peace Lutheran Church in Maumelle, AR, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 136.  "Psalms of Thanksgiving” is a series on Sharper Iron that looks to several psalms to help us give thanks to God. The LORD gives blessings to His whole creation, even all evil people. As we pray the psalms, He teaches us to receive all His gifts with thanksgiving, knowing that He is good and His steadfast love endures forever.  This episode originally aired on November 25, 2024. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Früher gab es eine Hand voll Menschen, die wirklich berühmt waren. Michael Jackson, die Beatles, Elvis, Madonna. Ob man sie mochte oder nicht: Alle kannten die Melodie von «Thriller», den Text von «Let it Be», den Groove von «Jailhouse Rock», den Refrain von «Like A Virgin».Das hatte etwas Verbindendes. Heute ist die Welt fragmentierter geworden. Und unser Musikhören digitaler, von Algorithmen getrieben. Klar, da gibt es eine Taylor Swift, die gerade alle Rekorde bricht. Oder The Weeknd, die den meistgestreamten Song aller Zeiten (fünf Milliarden!) gemacht haben.Sind sie die globalen Superstars, so, wie Jackson, Madonna, Elvis und Co. damals? Gibt es das heute überhaupt noch? Oder ist ihre Ära vorbei, zerstört vom Algorithmus?Diesen grossen Fragen ist Marco Maurer, Redaktor im Ressort Leben, in einem Essay nachgegangen.

Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost Old Testament: Habakkuk 1:1-4, 2:1-4 1The oracle that the prophet Habakkuk saw. 2O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not listen? Or cry to you “Violence!” and you will not save? 3Why do you make me see wrong-doing and look at trouble? Destruction and violence are before me; strife and contention arise. 4So the law becomes slack and justice never prevails. The wicked surround the righteous— therefore judgment comes forth perverted. 1I will stand at my watchpost, and station myself on the rampart; I will keep watch to see what he will say to me, and what he will answer concerning my complaint. 2Then the Lord answered me and said: Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so that a runner may read it. 3For there is still a vision for the appointed time; it speaks of the end, and does not lie. If it seems to tarry, wait for it; it will surely come, it will not delay. 4Look at the proud! Their spirit is not right in them, but the righteous live by their faith. Psalm: Psalm 37:1-10 1 Do not fret yourself because of evildoers; *        do not be jealous of those who do wrong. 2 For they shall soon wither like the grass, *        and like the green grass fade away. 3 Put your trust in the Lord and do good; *        dwell in the land and feed on its riches. 4 Take delight in the Lord, *        and he shall give you your heart's desire. 5 Commit your way to the Lord and put your trust in him, *        and he will bring it to pass. 6 He will make your righteousness as clear as the light *        and your just dealing as the noonday. 7 Be still before the Lord *        and wait patiently for him. 8 Do not fret yourself over the one who prospers, *        the one who succeeds in evil schemes. 9 Refrain from anger, leave rage alone; *        do not fret yourself; it leads only to evil. 10 For evildoers shall be cut off, *        but those who wait upon the Lord shall possess the land. Epistle: 2 Timothy 1:1-14 1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, for the sake of the promise of life that is in Christ Jesus, 2To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.3I am grateful to God—whom I worship with a clear conscience, as my ancestors did—when I remember you constantly in my prayers night and day. 4Recalling your tears, I long to see you so that I may be filled with joy. 5I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that lived first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, lives in you. 6For this reason I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands; 7for God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline.8Do not be ashamed, then, of the testimony about our Lord or of me his prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel, relying on the power of God, 9who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works but according to his own purpose and grace. This grace was given to us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, 10but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. 11For this gospel I was appointed a herald and an apostle and a teacher, 12and for this reason I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know the one in whom I have put my trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that day what I have entrusted to him. 13Hold to the standard of sound teaching that you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. 14Guard the good treasure entrusted to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit living in us. Gospel: Luke 17:5-10 5The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” 6The Lord replied, “If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you. 7“Who among you would say to your slave who has just come in from plowing or tending sheep in the field, ‘Come here at once and take your place at the table'? 8Would you not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, put on your apron and serve me while I eat and drink; later you may eat and drink'? 9Do you thank the slave for doing what was commanded? 10So you also, when you have done all that you were ordered to do, say, ‘We are worthless slaves; we have done only what we ought to have done!'”

The dreaded second spot in the Grand Final lineup has a lot of lore surrounding it, spoken only in hushed tones by those that fear its power. But it turns out despite not producing any winners in 70 years, it hasn't been all bad for those forced to contend with the supposed "Death Slot." We go way back to find the source of the myth, and look at those that fell to the curse as well as those that overcame it.Dimitry's spreadsheet of every Death Slot contestant from 1956 to the present: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/195UrSVGQxLTSqe5UEel6uvSfnV-7h3BZUUcisOYJnl0/edit?gid=0#gid=0Vote for Eurovangelists in the 2025 Signal Awards! https://vote.signalaward.com/PublicVoting#/2025/shows/genre/music Voting ends October 9th!This week's companion playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7Ev3VwiMW337sFmK1su5Wy The Eurovangelists are Jeremy Bent, Oscar Montoya and Dimitry Pompée.The theme was arranged and recorded by Cody McCorry and Faye Fadem, and the logo was designed by Tom Deja.Production support for this show was provided by the Maximum Fun network.The show is edited by Jeremy Bent with audio mixing help was courtesy of Shane O'Connell.Find Eurovangelists on social media as @eurovangelists on Instagram and @eurovangelists.com on Bluesky, or send us an email at eurovangelists@gmail.com.

Today Eric emphasizes the crucial role of professionalism and word choice in sales interactions. He argues that just as one wouldn't appear in unprofessional attire for an in-person meeting, using inappropriate language or slang is equally detrimental to a client's perception. The episode provides numerous examples of unacceptable vocabulary in sales, such as "cost," "problem," "cheap," "try," or "part ways," contrasting them with more effective alternatives like "investment," "challenge," "cost-effective," "experience," and "agreement." The overarching message is that every word contributes to the client's perception of trustworthiness and competence, underscoring the importance of thoughtful communication in sales presentations and discovery calls.  Key Takeaways: Always dress professionally for sales consultations to convey respect and seriousness. Refrain from using profanity, locker room talk, or casual slang in professional interactions. Choose positive and professional vocabulary, such as "investment" instead of "cost" and "challenge" instead of "problem." Frame your sales approach as a service or presentation aimed at helping clients, rather than merely "pitching." Be mindful that every word you use shapes the client's perception and can either build trust or create resistance.

Psalm 37 English Standard VersionHe Will Not Forsake His SaintsOf David.37 Fret not yourself because of evildoers;    be not envious of wrongdoers!2 For they will soon fade like the grass    and wither like the green herb.3 Trust in the Lord, and do good;    dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.4 Delight yourself in the Lord,    and he will give you the desires of your heart.5 Commit your way to the Lord;    trust in him, and he will act.6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,    and your justice as the noonday.7 Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;    fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,    over the man who carries out evil devices!8 Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath!    Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.9 For the evildoers shall be cut off,    but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land.10 In just a little while, the wicked will be no more;    though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.11 But the meek shall inherit the land    and delight themselves in abundant peace.12 The wicked plots against the righteous    and gnashes his teeth at him,13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,    for he sees that his day is coming.14 The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows    to bring down the poor and needy,    to slay those whose way is upright;15 their sword shall enter their own heart,    and their bows shall be broken.16 Better is the little that the righteous has    than the abundance of many wicked.17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken,    but the Lord upholds the righteous.18 The Lord knows the days of the blameless,    and their heritage will remain forever;19 they are not put to shame in evil times;    in the days of famine they have abundance.20 But the wicked will perish;    the enemies of the Lord are like the glory of the pastures;    they vanish—like smoke they vanish away.21 The wicked borrows but does not pay back,    but the righteous is generous and gives;22 for those blessed by the Lord shall inherit the land,    but those cursed by him shall be cut off.23 The steps of a man are established by the Lord,    when he delights in his way;24 though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,    for the Lord upholds his hand.25 I have been young, and now am old,    yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken    or his children begging for bread.26 He is ever lending generously,    and his children become a blessing.27 Turn away from evil and do good;    so shall you dwell forever.28 For the Lord loves justice;    he will not forsake his saints.They are preserved forever,    but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.29 The righteous shall inherit the land    and dwell upon it forever.30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,    and his tongue speaks justice.31 The law of his God is in his heart;    his steps do not slip.32 The wicked watches for the righteous    and seeks to put him to death.33 The Lord will not abandon him to his power    or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial.34 Wait for the Lord and keep his way,    and he will exalt you to inherit the land;    you will look on when the wicked are cut off.35 I have seen a wicked, ruthless man,    spreading himself like a green laurel tree.36 But he passed away, and behold, he was no more;    though I sought him, he could not be found.37 Mark the blameless and behold the upright,    for there is a future for the man of peace.38 But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed;    the future of the wicked shall be cut off.39 The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;    he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.40 The Lord helps them and delivers them;    he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,    because they take refuge in him.English Standard Version (ESV)The ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.

Psalms 42 and 43 share a common refrain in which the psalmist recalls the comfort of the hope he has in God, his salvation, even in the midst of terrible turmoil. He thirsts to be with God, and yet, his enemies question where his God even is. He cries out to God who, at times, seems to have forgotten him. He prays that God would answer with light and truth and so bring him back to the altar of God. Through the ups and downs of this life, the psalmist's focus—and ours—comes back over and over to the real hope that is found in the salvation of God.  Rev. Sean Kilgo, pastor at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Lawrence, KS, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalms 42 and 43.  To learn more about Redeemer Lutheran, visit Redeemer-Lawrence.org Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

What if everything you thought you knew about following Jesus was turned upside down?In Luke 6, Jesus presents a radical new way of living that challenges our natural impulses and cultural norms. He calls us to:• Find blessing in poverty and suffering • Love our enemies • Refrain from judgment • Build our lives on His wordsThis upside-down Kingdom doesn't make sense to our world or even to ourselves sometimes. But Jesus isn't calling us to try harder or be perfect.He's inviting us into a transformative relationship:"Come to me. Hear my words.
