What if freedom isn't a destination, but a road you walk every day? Life rarely plays out the way we imagined. One minute you're chasing a dream, the next you're wondering how it all fell apart. This message is for the guy stuck in the middle of the mess, who's tired of pretending everything's fine. Whether it's a delay, a detour, or a disappointment, this is your reminder that God still walks with people who feel lost. The road to freedom is not about perfection. It's about motion. One honest step at a time. This message unpacks three simple but powerful keys: Recognize His Presence, Remember His Promises, and Rely on His People. Jesus isn't just waiting at the finish line. He's walking right beside you, even when you don't recognize Him. The good news is, you don't have to get it all right. You just have to keep going.

Romans 7 presents us with one of the most raw and vulnerable passages in all of Scripture, where we encounter the apostle Paul wrestling with a tension that every believer knows intimately: the struggle between who we are in Christ and the sin that still clings to our flesh. This passage doesn't offer us a polished, perfect Christianity—instead, it invites us into the messy reality of spiritual transformation. We discover that being saved doesn't make us perfect; it makes us forgiven. The profound truth here is that we are no longer 'in the flesh' but we are still 'of the flesh'—we've been freed from sin's dominion, yet we still battle its presence. Paul's honest confession 'I do not understand my own actions' resonates deeply because it mirrors our own experience. We find ourselves doing the very things we hate and failing to do the good we desire. This isn't a sign that our salvation is invalid; rather, it's evidence of the spiritual war raging within every Christ-follower. The beauty emerges when Paul asks not 'what will deliver me?' but 'who will deliver me?'—pointing us away from self-help solutions toward the only One who can truly save us. The answer comes thundering through: 'Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord,' followed immediately by the liberating declaration of Romans 8:1—'There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.' We're reminded that our Father stands with arms wide open, not waiting to condemn us for our failures, but inviting us to run to Him with every struggle, every sin, every moment of weakness.### Detailed Sermon Notes**Introduction:**- Pastor Will introduces himself and shares his recent mission trip to Malawi and South Africa. He emphasizes the gratitude for the church's support, which enables partnerships and gospel sharing in extremely impoverished regions.**Scripture Focus (Romans 7:13-25):**- **Struggle with Sin:** - Paul's honesty about his battle with sin highlights a universal Christian experience. - Believers are of the flesh yet in Christ, creating a tension of living according to the Spirit while wrestling with sinful nature. - Paul's question, "Why do I do what I don't want to do?" resonates with many believers.**Life as a Journey:**- **Analogy of the River:** - Life's path before Christ is like flowing downstream. Conversion is the turning point, representing the choice to paddle upstream against worldly currents.**Personal Story:**- Will shares a story of his son breaking a TV and promptly confessing, illustrating how God desires us to come to Him after we fail, instead of trying to fix things on our own.**Main Points:**- **Human Nature vs. Divine Calling:** - Despite being saved, Christians have an ongoing struggle with sin due to their fleshly nature. - Quoting John MacArthur, Will explains that believers are not "in" the flesh but "of" it, highlighting the continuous internal conflict.**Closing Message:**- Only Jesus, not human efforts, can deliver from sin's power.- Encourages transparency within the church, fostering a community where individuals can confess struggles without judgment.### Practical Applications1. **Embrace Transparency:**  - Cultivate authentic relationships within the church by admitting and discussing personal struggles.2. **Run to God:**  - Develop a habit of confessing sins to God promptly and seeking His strength to overcome, rather than relying on self-improvement techniques.3. **Rely on Grace:**  - Focus on understanding and relying on God's grace through Christ, rather than attempting to achieve righteousness through personal effort.4. **Scripture Engagement:**  - Regularly read and meditate on Scripture to reinforce the truth of God's grace and the ongoing internal battle with sin.### Discussion Questions1. **Personal Reflection:**  - Describe a time when you felt like Paul, struggling between your desires and your actions. How did you handle it?2. **The Role of Grace:**  - How can embracing God's grace daily help you in your struggle against sin?3. **Community Support:**  - In what ways can you contribute to making the church a more open and accepting environment for vulnerability and authenticity?4. **Prayerful Dependence:**  - What steps can you take to run to God and seek His help whenever you face temptation or failure?

Episode 2.56Before the world began, the Father had already decided to make us His own.In this week's episode, Zach and Michael trace the doctrine of adoption back to its eternal source—God's loving plan “before the foundation of the world” (Ephesians 1:3–6). Adoption is not a divine backup plan but the very heartbeat of redemption.The discussion unpacks how the Father chose, predestined, and purposed our adoption in love through Christ—joyfully, not reluctantly. His design was always to create a family of sons and daughters who reflect His holiness and live “to the praise of His glorious grace.”Listeners are invited to:– Rest in the Father's plan — chosen before creation.– Rejoice in His love — wanted, not pitied.– Rely on His faithfulness — secure in His will.– Respond in worship — praising the grace that made us His.The episode closes by contrasting earthly adoption—beautiful but uncertain—with divine adoption—undeserved yet guaranteed. “The fix is in,” the hosts say: before time began, the Father had already written the ending. Through Christ, we are not merely accepted—we are wanted, chosen, and eternally loved.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/v0_82mCwC8cMerch 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

We find ourselves in one of the most challenging sections of Romans, where Paul confronts us with a profound truth: the law reveals our sin but cannot save us from it. Through the lens of the tenth commandment—'thou shalt not covet'—we discover how deeply sin runs in our hearts. The message uses a simple yet powerful illustration of children wanting each other's ice cream to show us something profound: we are perfectly content with what we have until we see what others possess. This isn't just about material things; it's about the human heart's tendency to compare, desire, and ultimately rebel against God's boundaries. The beauty of this teaching lies in its honesty—we learn that even the greatest saints, like Paul himself, wrestled with sin daily. The law acts as a mirror, showing us our need for a Savior, but it cannot cleanse us. Only the blood of Jesus can do that. When we stand before God, it won't be our good deeds that save us, but Christ stepping onto the scales of justice in our place. This message calls us to guard our hearts, cultivate gratitude instead of covetousness, and remember that when we do fall—and we will—we have an advocate in Jesus Christ who pleads our case before the Father.### Sermon Notes: Understanding Romans 7:7-14#### Detailed Notes1. **Introduction**  - The sermon focuses on Romans 7:7-14, noted as a dense and challenging part of the scripture where Paul discusses the law and sin.  - Central theme: The law's role in revealing sin and the struggle of living under sin's influence despite knowing the law.2. **Prayer for Clarity**  - Asking for divine help to illuminate the passage and remove distractions for better understanding.3. **Missions Update**  - Brief updates on church missions to Malawi, South Africa, and Myanmar, emphasizing global reach and community impact.4. **Exposition of Romans 7:7-14**  - Example of coveting as illustrated in Exodus 20:17 (The Tenth Commandment).  - Story of personal experience with grandchildren to highlight the human tendency toward covetousness.  - Emphasis that coveting stems from the heart, leading to actions contrary to God's commandment.5. **Boundaries and Sin**  - Illustration of boundaries using a playground metaphor, explaining how humans naturally push against established limits.  - The law serves as a boundary to reveal the sin within, not to save.6. **Parable of the Rich Fool (Luke 12:13-21)**  - Jesus teaching against covetousness by focusing on the parable where temporal possessions take precedence over spiritual richness.  - Warning against the dangers of greed and the temporal nature of material possessions.7. **David and Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11-12)**  - The story of King David's sin due to covetousness as a demonstration of how a desire stems from the heart and leads to breaking multiple commandments.  - Nathan's confrontation of David and the ensuing consequences.8. **Covetousness and Spiritual Life**  - Recognizing that covetousness begins in the heart and can lead to a cascade of sinful actions.  - Encouragement to guard the heart against such desires (Proverbs 4:23).9. **Paul's Struggle with Sin**  - Insight into Paul's internal struggle with sin, possibly rooted in personal inadequacies and past actions.  - Importance of grace through Jesus as the only path to overcoming sin.10. **Practical Implications of the Sermon**  - Recognizing our daily battles with sin and relying on Jesus as our advocate.  - Importance of gratitude as a weapon against covetousness and material obsession.  - Encouraging humility and recognition of one's sinfulness to experience growth and redemption.#### Practical Applications1. **Cultivate Gratitude**  - Regularly practice gratitude to combat covetousness. Maintain a gratitude journal or share daily thanks with family or friends.2. **Guard Your Heart**  - Be mindful of thoughts that lead to coveting. Establish personal 'guardrails' when engaging with media that fuels envy or discontentment.3. **Recognize Boundaries**  - Identify areas in life where you push against God's established boundaries and work on staying centered through prayer and reflection.4. **Pursue Spiritual Richness**  - Prioritize investments in spiritual growth over material acquisitions. Participate in church activities, bible studies, and community services.5. **Rely on Jesus' Advocacy**  - When struggling with sin, verbally acknowledge Jesus as your advocate in prayer to foster reliance on His grace.#### Discussion Questions1. How does understanding the purpose of the law help you in your daily struggle with sin?2. Can you identify ways in which covetousness surfaces in your life? How do you typically respond to it?3. Reflect on a situation where gratitude has helped you overcome feelings of envy or dissatisfaction. Share with the group.4. In what ways can we as a community support each other in establishing and respecting personal and spiritual boundaries?5. How does the understanding of Jesus as your advocate change your perspective on personal failings and sins?

This past Sunday at Myrtle House Community Church, Martin O'Brien continued our series “Don't Rely on the Naked Eye”, exploring what it truly means to live a Spirit-led life. If we aren't relying on what we can see with our natural eyes, then we must learn to rely on the Holy Spirit. Jesus is our perfect example — from His birth to His resurrection, every moment of His life was shaped, empowered, and guided by the Holy Spirit. Born of the Spirit In Luke 1:35, we see that Jesus was conceived through the Holy Spirit — His very identity was formed by the Spirit's power. When we give our lives to Jesus, something similar happens within us. It's a divine moment where we are born again, stepping into a new life through the same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead. John 3:5-6 reminds us, “Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.” Just as Jesus was born of the Spirit, so are we when we surrender our lives to Him. Empowered by the Spirit When Jesus was baptised (Luke 3:21-22), the Holy Spirit descended on Him, marking the beginning of His ministry. That same Spirit now lives in us, empowering us to live courageously, to serve, to speak truth, and to overcome temptation. The Holy Spirit reveals our true identity — that we are sons and daughters of God. Through Him, we find confidence and strength to live as God intended. Led by the Spirit Luke 4:1 tells us that Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness. Even in times of testing, He was guided by the Spirit and relied completely on the Father's will. In John 5:19, Jesus said, “The Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing.” This is what it means to live in step with the Holy Spirit — to follow God's lead instead of acting independently. Romans 8:14 assures us, “For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.” When we let the Holy Spirit lead, we walk in our true identity as God's children. How Do We Live a Spirit-Filled Life? Martin shared three practical ways we can stay in step with the Holy Spirit: Daily Surrender – Begin each day inviting the Holy Spirit to lead you. Lean in close, listen, and allow Him to guide your heart. Scripture and Prayer – Let God's Word tune your spirit to hear His voice above all others. Ask, “Holy Spirit, speak to me,” each time you read. Community – Surround yourself with Spirit-filled believers who will encourage, challenge, and walk with you. Galatians 5:25 reminds us, “Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.” Are you living in your own strength, or are you walking in the power of the Holy Spirit? Each day is an invitation to surrender afresh, to be filled, and to follow His lead. Let's be a people who don't rely on the naked eye, but instead live Spirit-filled, Spirit-led lives — shining the light of Jesus wherever we go.

Send us a textWelcome to today's between-the-seasons bonus episode, in which I explore the fascinating—and deeply challenging—findings of Stanley Milgram's famous Obedience to Authority experiments and consider what they reveal about human nature, authority, and morality from a biblical perspective.This post was originally made available as a special post for those who follow me on Patreon. patreon.com/JeremyMcCandlessMilgram's research highlights the unsettling reality of how easily people can obey authority figures, even to the point of causing harm to others. As Christians, these findings prompt us to reflect on humanity's inherent moral weakness, the biblical doctrine of original sin, and the importance of standing firm in God's truth when confronted with ethical dilemmas.We'll explore questions like:What do Milgram's experiments reveal about the human heart?How does this align with the Bible's teaching on original sin?How can Christians cultivate discernment and moral courage when pressured to conform?Study Notes for Today's EpisodeKey Themes:The Nature of Obedience: Milgram's research reveals humanity's tendency to conform to authority, even when it conflicts with personal conscience.Original Sin: This aligns with the biblical teaching that human nature is inherently flawed (Romans 5:12; Jeremiah 17:9).Moral Responsibility: Scripture emphasizes individual accountability for actions (Romans 14:12; Genesis 3).Resisting Sinful Authority: Christians are called to obey God over human leaders when moral conflict arises (Acts 5:29).Practical Takeaways:Cultivate a Biblically Informed Conscience: Regular study of Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16-17) and prayer help shape our moral compass.Rely on the Holy Spirit: God's Spirit empowers us to resist sinful authority and stand firm (Galatians 5:16).Lead by Example: Just as participants in Milgram's experiments were more likely to resist when others did, Christians are called to be salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16).Reflection Questions:How does understanding the doctrine of original sin help us make sense of Milgram's findings?Can you think of a time when you had to choose between following orders and doing what was right?How can you strengthen your moral courage in moments of ethical pressure?Thank you for joining metoday! As always, let's keep diving deeper into God's Word and applying its truth to the challenges of our modern world.BibliographyBiblical ReferencesRomans 5:12Romans 7:15Romans 8:13Catch On Fire PodcastsThis channel does a deep dive into the scriptures so as to teach what it means to be...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

In this powerful message, Pastor Rick Warren offers biblical wisdom for those facing seasons of despair, loss, or discouragement. Drawing from Scripture—particularly passages from 2 Corinthians and Psalms—he reminds listeners that even when life feels overwhelming, God is still working behind the scenes. Warren explains that hopelessness often comes from focusing on what we've lost rather than on what remains and what God can restore. He outlines practical steps to rebuild hope: Refocus on God's character — remembering His goodness, mercy, and unchanging love.Rely on God's promises — anchoring faith in His Word rather than circumstances.Reach out to others — community and prayer are key to healing and renewed strength.Refuse to give up — trusting that God's timing brings beauty out of pain. Rick Warren's message reassures believers that hope is not wishful thinking but confident expectation rooted in God's faithfulness. No matter how dark the situation, God specializes in bringing light to the hopeless. Jag, Tedi, and I thank you for tuning in!

The All Local 4pm Update for Tuesday, October 28th 2025

Welcome to The Times of Israel's newest podcast series, Friday Focus. Each Friday, join host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan and diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman for a deep dive into what's behind the news that spins the globe. Since US President Donald Trump's whirlwind visit to the Jewish state on Monday of last week, Israel has welcomed a revolving roster of high-level officials visiting the country. This week saw the arrival of Trump’s senior Middle East advisors Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Vice President JD Vance — and his wife Usha — and also US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. As their visits spur accusations that Israel is becoming a "client" or vassal state of the US, controversial MK Avi Maoz brought a bill that passed in a preliminary reading in the Knesset on Wednesday. The bill would apply Israeli sovereignty to all West Bank settlements despite opposition from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and most, but not all, of his Likud party. US officials quickly rebuked the annexation efforts in the Knesset, calling them "counterproductive" even as the Trump administration attempts to cement the recent ceasefire into a lasting peace deal. If the US succeeds, it wouldn't be the first time that an Israeli war was ended through US efforts. This week, Berman takes a historical look at other examples and examines the question of whether Israel is, indeed, relying on its "partner" the US to wind down its wars. Friday Focus can be found on all podcast platforms. This episode was produced by the Pod-Waves.

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Casey Woo, a renowned tech operator, investor, and co-founder of the Operators Guild. Casey introduces the concept of the “Scaler”—an elite generalist who thrives in the chaotic, ever-changing environment of early-stage SaaS startups. The conversation dives deep into what makes scalers indispensable, why specialists often struggle in startup settings, and how AI is shifting the landscape for operators and business leaders. Casey offers practical frameworks, shares battle-tested leadership lessons, and explains how founders can build more resilient and focused teams to avoid the burnout common among high-performing scalers and ops leaders.Key Takeaways00:00 "From Loneliness to Operators Guild"03:25 "Misleading Job Titles and Roles"09:47 "AI Reshapes Roles, Specialists Evolve"11:08 "Rise of Special Forces in Business"15:04 "Balancing Focus and Ambition"19:45 "Focus on Core Business Metrics"21:05 Pitfalls of Over-Hiring Too Early27:06 "Quality Checks, Trust, and Community"27:57 "Staying Engaged to Master AI Tools"33:07 "AI Fluency as Essential Skillset"37:11 "Understanding Diverse Business Languages"39:23 Operators Guild & FOG Investing CommunityTweetable Quotes“We are not defined by titles—we are multidisciplinary, and we are elite specialists at being generalists.” — Casey Woo“The earlier you go, the more change there is per day.

Today we had the pleasure of hosting William Clouston, Party Leader of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in the United Kingdom. William has served as Party Leader since 2018 and was re-elected in March 2020. He originally joined the SDP in 1982 and spent four years in the Conservative Party, becoming a District Councilor and serving on Tynedale Council. He holds both undergraduate and master's degrees in Urban Planning and Property Management. We became interested in connecting with William after reading the SDP's Energy Abundance paper published in September (linked here). Founded in 1981, the SDP is an economically left leaning and culturally traditional political party. Its flagship “Social Market” economic model views the private and public sectors not as opponents but as complementary parts of the same society. We were delighted to connect with William for an insightful discussion on the UK and Europe's energy policies and beyond. We covered a wide range of topics in our conversation, beginning with the purpose and motivation for writing Energy Abundance, including Britain's current energy crisis, marked by too little power, high costs, and overreliance on imports. William shares the history of the government's role in energy policy and the SDP's argument for a return to government-led energy development, starting with building gas and coal plants. He discusses reactions to the paper, the urgency of rebuilding domestic energy capacity, and the importance of distinguishing cost and value when considering investing $150 billion in grid stabilization and baseload generation. We compare the UK's energy landscape to Germany and the U.S., the risk of further productivity decline if energy issues persist, and public awareness of the energy crisis, which remains politically constrained by cultural and institutional apathy. We explore the SDP's economic and political philosophy, including the party's support for strategic trade protection and tariffs and its cultural traditionalism, emphasizing family as the foundation of society, nation-states, borders, and conventional values. We touch on how energy debates are often constrained by social norms, particularly around net zero, the SDP's 10-year energy plan proposing a state-run, vertically integrated utility, the UK's historical “dash for gas” and current overreliance on renewables, and the party's support for large-scale nuclear, favoring its “brute force” capacity and proven designs. We ended by asking William for his vision of the UK in ten years. We learned a lot and greatly appreciate William for sharing his deep knowledge of British politics, policies, and culture with us all. To start the show, Mike Bradley noted that the S&P 500 is up ~2% this week on better than expected quarterly results from the Big US Banks. AI & Electricity mania remain “the” key equity market drivers, which has also pushed the Consumer Discretionary, Technology & Utilities sectors higher this week. On the crude oil market front, WTI has sunk to ~$59/bbl, partly on the Gaza Peace Agreement but mainly due to growing concern with the 2026 global oil supply surplus. Both the IEA and OPEC published their monthly oil outlooks, with the IEA projecting a ~4mmbpd 2026 surplus, which is ridiculously higher than all other estimates. The reason oil prices seem to be moving lower this week (versus previous weeks) is because oil traders are pressing their bearish bets now that crude oil prices have finally broken to the downside. On the energy equity front, one of this week's biggest Energy/Electricity equity movers is Bloom Energy (up ~30%) on news Brookfield struck a $5B strategic partnership with Bloom to be their preferred fuel cell supplier at Brookfield's global AI factories. Q3 Energy results kick off this week with most investors expecting to hear a softening frac story but a scaling up of their power business. Most investors

Because of the government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics will not release its monthly unemployment and jobs survey today. But that's probably not a big deal to President Donald Trump, who has apparently decided that the best statistics are the ones that either say what he wants to hear, or are simply never heard at all.  The most expensive extreme weather events, which facilities are creating the most pollution, quarterly reports, incidents of domestic terrorism, the number of people who need food assistance…these are all statistics Americans need to know. And these are all forms of data under attack by the Trump administration. And this started long before the shutdown. America has been a world leader at collecting data on everything from the number of bison living in Plains states to the divorce rate – but our data supremacy might be coming to an end. And that's really, really bad, for reasons we might not even know yet. So to find out more about the stats we're losing, and what else we're losing in the process, we spoke to Denice Ross. She's a senior fellow at the Federation of American Scientists and former U.S. Chief Data Scientist for the Biden administration.And in headlines, President Donald Trump determines the US is in an “armed conflict” with drug cartels, the Trump administration punishes a slew of blue states by cancelling nearly $8-billion in grants for their clean energy projects, and the lastest update in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
