In this episode of The Concordia Publishing House Podcast, host Elizabeth Pittman is joined by guest Sharla Fritz to discuss Sharla's newest book, Divine Directions: How God Guides Your Path. Order the book now on CPH's website at cph.org/divinedirections. Show NotesFrom Moses' journey to the Promised Land and Ruth's journey in life, it's easy to see that following your own itinerary never goes as planned. In her new book, Divine Directions, Sharla Fritz writes about how this is especially true in her own travel woes. During the episode, listen as Sharla discusses these personal travel stories, the eight Biblical travels she writes about in the book, what it looks like to trust God's itinerary instead of our own, how to reflect on our spiritual journeys, and more. QuestionsWhat inspired you to write Divine Directions, and how did your own experiences with travel influence the theme?Why did you choose these eight biblical journeys to include in the study? Was there one that surprised you during your research?What common threads did you find among these journeys, despite their very different circumstances and outcomes?Can you share how one of these stories—perhaps Ruth or Jonah—has shaped your understanding of God's guidance?One of the study's key ideas is that “God rarely gives us a detailed map.” How can that be comforting instead of frustrating?What does it look like, practically, to trust God's itinerary instead of our own?You include timelines, maps, and historical context. How does understanding the “where and when” of Scripture help readers apply it to the “here and now”?This study is meant for both individual reflection and small group discussion. How does community enhance our ability to follow God's lead?You encourage readers to share their own stories. Why is it so powerful to reflect on our spiritual journeys out loud?What encouragement would you offer to someone currently feeling lost or stuck at a crossroads in life?What do you hope readers take away from this study once they've completed all eight journeys?About the GuestSharla Fritz loves to speak with women's groups and to share about her own struggles, victories, and failures, speaking about how God is miraculously present through them all. In doing so, she hopes to share a few laughs and meet new sisters in Christ. Sharla is a Lutheran author, musician, and speaker. She has published numerous books with Concordia Publishing House, including Measured by Grace, God's Relentless Love, Divine Makeover: God Makes You Beautiful, Divine Design: 40 Days of Spiritual Makeover, and Bless These Lips: 40 Days of Spiritual Transformation.
We start a new series on the book of Malachi covering chapter 1 verses 1-5. In these verses, the relentless love of God for Israel, and for all Christians through Jesus, is on full display.
Let's choose to love when it's inconvenient, to forgive even when it hurts, to show up for people who can't repay us.
God is relentless in His love pursuit for mankind. In fact, He's given us His only begotten Son so that we might be reconciled back to Him. In this episode, I share an experience that I recently had that really opened my eyes to this reality at a training event held from April 22nd to the 25th of 2025. I believe it'll change how you approach how you interact with people through personal relationships to kingdom ministry.

Preacher: Candice van Pletsen Sermon: Relentless Love Date: 05/03/2025
One of my goals with this podcast is to introduce an audience I love to people I love. I'd love for you to meet Buck Barrett. Buck is a husband and father and a passionately outspoken Christian. He is also a former air traffic controller and currently works as a branch manager for the FAA's Air Traffic Safety Oversight Service… and he does all of this while being the full-time preacher for a congregation in Renton, WA.Buck and I talk about his conversion from a life of partying without purpose – the love of his brother that refused to take no for an answer when it came to Buck's soul, and we also spend some time talking about how to talk to people about Jesus in the work environment without getting in trouble with HR, what it means to be family and to love people like Jesus loves us, we even spend some time talk about race and its impact on evangelism. I entitled this conversation, ‘Relentless Love' and I think you will find, Buck has a way of relentlessly seeking the lost and making sure that they know Jesus loves them.Send us a text"Remember, you are loved, so go, love better!"New episodes drop on Tuesdays.

Recording of a laid back interactive conversation with Aaron Camp as a special co-host. Together, we discuss the relentlessness of the Kundalini process as a form of love. Kundalini Shakti desires for us to be fully free and won't allow us to settle for anything less.
Kyle Kauffman | Nov 24 2024 Do we believe that God truly loves the world? Do we believe it is God's desire to save sinners? Do we believe that God does not wish for any to perish? It's easy for the church to become inward focused and to lose its passion to see the gospel advance and sinners saved. But when this happens, we actually have lost our understanding of God's heart for the world. Jonah is a book that displays God's love not just for his people, but also for those who are not yet his people. We, as his people, are called to have the same heart that God has for the world. God is always moving outward in His love for people and he calls the church reflect his heart by moving outward as well.
Kyle Kauffman | Nov 17 2024 Jonah's response to the salvation of Nineveh is one of the most surprising parts of this book. How can Jonah be so upset that God chose to save Nineveh? Why would Jonah, who has been a recipient of God's amazing love and grace, be so angry when God shows that same love and grace to others? Yet, even as we ask those questions, we are forced to see something of ourselves in Jonah. How often, do we as recipients of God's grace live with an attitude towards others that is completely out of line with his grace? How often are we who have bene saved, completely comfortable with the through that other will perish? How often does our attitude towards the world (especially whoever we perceive as our enemies) the same as Jonah's?
Brandon Fisher | Nov 10 2024 Jonah 3:5-10 may be one of the most surprising sections of the Bible. An entire city, along with its King, who were enemies of God and His people believe the message of Jonah and responded in repentance. We find in this section that God's power is able to save even those who we think are most beyond the reach of saving. We find a picture of what true repentance looks like. And we also see a beautiful picture of how God responds to repentance.
Kyle Kauffman | Oct. 27 2024 God's saving love experienced is what he uses to commission us to be messengers of His word to others. God saves people so that he might then send them to warn others and speak his message of salvation to others. His love is what qualifies and calls us to be His ambassadors to the world. While not every Christian is called to be a missionary (like Jonah), all Christians are called to take part in God's mission to spread the gospel by speaking the truth. And yet the story of Jonah tells us that even when we blow it as God's messengers, there is still hope for us. And even when our message is incomplete or inadequate, God is able to save.
Kyle Kauffman | Oct. 20 2024 God acts in history to save people. This is how God displays his love. This is how we experience God's love. This is not just the story of Jonah, but it's also the story of the entire Bible and it's the story of everyone who has placed their faith in Jesus. Jonah's powerful prayer/psalm gives us a memorable picture of how God acts to save his people. It leads us to praise, dependence, and trust as we look to the God who saves in our own lives. And it points us to our Savior and what he experienced in order to accomplish our salvation.
Kyle Kauffman | Oct 13 2024 Love can be painful because love seeks to do what's in the best interest of someone else even when it hurts. We often conceive of love in nice and neat categories. But Jonah shows us that God's love is what will lead him to send storms our way in this life. These storms are often the very means God uses to save us, to expose and destroy our idols, and to draw us back to him when and where we have wandered. God's love is also what drove him to send his greatest storm upon His very own Son so that we could be saved.

Kyle Kauffman | Oct 6 2024 Jonah 1:4 opens with one of the greatest phrases in the bible, “But the LORD.” Left to ourselves we would be completely lost and hopeless. We would remain estranged from God for all eternity. But the LORD shows his love in pursuing us. We see in the story of the sailors on the ship that salvation is a result of God's intentional pursuit. And we see in the story of Jonah on the ship that our continued hope in the face of hearts that are prone to wander is God's continual pursuit of us. Just as our love for another person is often displayed in our intentional pursuit of them, so also God's love is displayed in his intentional pursuit of us. And our salvation, far from simply being a decision we made, is a display of the glory and sovereignty of God.Jonah 1:4-16
Joel Wood | Sept 29 2024This sermon is meant to provide an introduction to the book of Jonah by helping us to understand who Jonah was and what was taking place in history at the time of Jonah's life. This sermon is also meant to show how Jonah's response to God's call exposes our own sinful hearts. We all hear God's call, whether it's to believe in Him or change how we're living for Him. However, left to ourselves we all disobey God's word, seek to escape his presence, and reject his authority over our lives. We are all JONAH and in desperate need of God's loving and relentless pursuit of us. And like JONAH, we have a message to take to an unbelieving world because God's heart is for all nations.
"Be holy for I am holy." (1 Peter 1:16) I don't know about you, but when I consider what the Lord is calling me to in this verse I frequently feel like a failure. Instead of "stepping into my calling to be holy" I often feel like I'm floundering in my calling? This week the apostle Peter is going to offer us some wonderful help and instruction on how we can truly live as holy human beings.

Join Stasi today in a conversation with author Katie Davis Majors as they discuss Katie's latest book, 'Safe All Along', and explore the promises of God, the essence of trust, and living out of a place of peace. Katie shares her journey with God from a young age to her years living in Uganda, where she adopted thirteen girls. Now mother to her fifteen favorite people, she also founded Amazima, a ministry fueled by compassion, mercy, and a desire to set others free through the truth of God's word. You'll be encouraged and inspired by Katie's reflections on Jesus' character and the hope of knowing we are always safe in God's unwavering love.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Colossians 1:3–14 (NIV) — We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all God's people—the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God's grace. You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf, and who also told us of your love in the Spirit.For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.John 8:32 (NLT) — And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.The Story of Manna can be found in Exodus 16 – here, Exodus 16:17 (NLT) — …Each family had just what it needed.…..GUESTWebsite: KatieDavisMajors.comAmazima Minsitries: katiedavismajors.com/amazimaInstagram: @KatieInUgandaFacebook: @KatieInUgandaTwitter/X: @KatieInUgandaKATIE DAVIS MAJORS BIOKatie Davis Majors is the bestselling author of Our Faithful God, Kisses from Katie, Daring to Hope, and Safe All Along.

What if the perpetrator of your pain isn't something on the outside, but your own sinful choices that have led to your suffering? How do we navigate the self-inflicted hurt caused by our own destructive decisions? Author and Pastor Max Lucado knows the feelings that can come from sinful decisions. In his own life as a young man, he began to see the dangerous trajectory of his choices if he didn't surrender to God's leading. Later as a well-known pastor and author, he would experience a similar reckoning when the weight of leadership became overwhelming and he turned to alcohol to ease the pain. It was through those experiences that Max's heart grew for those who have felt like Jacob in the Bible, wrestling with God and wondering if God had given up on them. In his latest book, God Never Gives Up on You: What Jacob's Story Teaches Us About Grace, Mercy, and God's Relentless Love, Max explores Jacob's story and how it relates to each of ours. In this honest conversation, Davey talks with Max about how we can truly believe that God doesn't give up on us, how to approach our self-induced pain, and the importance of authenticity in leadership. If you've ever wondered if God has given up on you after the mess you've made in your life, this episode will serve to remind you that no matter how far you've gone or how long you've wrestled, God's grace, mercy, and love never runs out.

“How do you find good news in such bad times?” Glenn asks Pastor Max Lucado on this episode of "The Glenn Beck Podcast." The answer, he says, is simple: Remember that God is still on the throne, even when trouble surrounds us. Max's cool-headed wisdom is exactly what the world needs right now as the war between Israel and Hamas threatens to expand to a global conflict. But is this more than just another war? Is biblical end times prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes? And how should we prepare for what's coming next? Glenn and Max discuss this and much more: What is a covenant? What makes the Gospels unique? What if our response to the upheaval of today was to become a nation of penance and prayer? What does it mean to be a man at a time when masculinity is under siege? Max tells Glenn we can learn the answers to many of these questions from the biblical story of Jacob, which is the subject of latest book, “God Never Gives Up on You: What Jacob's Story Teaches Us About Grace, Mercy, and God's Relentless Love.” “This is a spiritual battle,” he adds, and it's unlike anything that has preceded it. Hope is in low supply these days, but you will feel better by the end of this episode.

One of the biggest misconceptions we can have about faith is believing that if we do this, God will do that.But our friend, author and pastor Max Lucado is here to help us see the ways we may have adopted a transactional theology with God. He will show us how to live when we are in the gap between what we want out of life and what we get in life. God has not left us here. Understanding how big God is helps us better know and trust His character. When we view Him rightly, we can truly experience the beauty and riches of being in a relationship with our Father.Related Resources: Make sure to order a copy of Max's new book, God Never Gives Up on You: What Jacob's Story Teaches Us About Grace, Mercy, and God's Relentless Love.
