Bible StudyDon't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Sermon Notes:1. Worship Is HistoricalExodus 15:1 — Israel sings about God's real rescue at the Red Sea.Christian worship responds to God's real acts—especially the Cross and Resurrection.Without real saving events, worship has no foundation.2. Worship Is PersonalExodus 15:2 — “The LORD is my strength… my salvation.”Salvation must be personally received.Personal worship fuels corporate worship.In seasons of grief or shame, others can “hold” our worship for us.3. Worship Is DeclarativeExodus 15:11 — declaring who God is: holy, majestic, powerful.Declaring truth reorients our hearts, deepens our joy, and functions as spiritual warfare (2 Chronicles 20).4. Worship Is BeautifulExodus 15 is a song—with poetry, rhythm, and movement.God uses beauty, music, and art to reach deep places in us.Worship leaders help communicate God's beauty, not perform.ConclusionWorship is historical, personal, declarative, and beautiful.Worship steadies us when life spins around us.It trains us for our eternal vocation: worshiping the Lord in Spirit and truth.Discussion Questions:If you don't believe all the stories in the Bible, can you still worship God?Is quiet meditation or practicing mindfulness a form of worship? Why or why not?Does it matter that we worship corporately? Is private personal worship just as good?Can we still worship if we feel spiritually dry? What is the place of the emotions in worship?Can you share about a time when "personal pain robbed your perspective but worship restored it"?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon?

Unlock your competitive edge by planning earlier than everyone else. Strategic planning is more than an annual box to check; it is a time to reflect, reorient, and reengage your company with its long-term objectives, and to align today's priorities with them.    The true cost of distraction goes beyond just affecting mental focus; it impacts your bottom line. It's not only about lost productivity; on average, it takes about 23 minutes and 15 seconds to switch between business activities. Even though we are working effectively, the time lost hinders our company from maximizing its available resources.   In this episode, you will hear how not to overthink reflection, the importance of taking time to understand your current position before moving forward, and tips for conducting productive deep work sessions.   The panelists in this "It's Your Business" conversation are all business advisors:  Christy Maxfield, President and CEO of Purpose First Advisors; Dean Barta, Founder and CEO of Barta Business Group; and  Jess Dewell, Growth Strategist at Red Direction. They discuss a three-part framework designed to unlock your business's growth potential and explore pathways for strategic re-engagement.   --------------------   If you want to identify business bottlenecks, the necessary skills, the initial actions to take, the expected milestones, and the priorities for achieving growth, try the "Growth Framework Reset" approach. This will help you keep learning and growing while working strategically on your business. -------------------- You can get in touch with Jess Dewell on Twitter,  LinkedIn or Red Direction website.

Fr. Wiley invites us into the high calling of the everyday believer, and to ask 'why' 5 times to discover who or what it is we truly worship.

Series: r e s tTitle: Reorient Your Life on RestText: Genesis, 2:1-3, Exodus 20:8-11, Psalm 62:5-8, Isaiah 58:13-14, Matthew 11:27-30

In Week 7 of our Summer on the Mount series, Pastor Casey Olsen unpacks Matthew 6:19–24, a powerful portion of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount that challenges our hearts, our habits, and our loyalties. Are we chasing fleeting treasures or investing in what truly lasts?Key themes:- What we pursue shapes who we become- Our vision determines our inner light- The master we serve defines our directionWith clarity and conviction, Pastor Casey calls us to examine our priorities, perceptions, and spiritual investments. Through stories, Scripture, and practical application, we're reminded that Jesus is the only treasure who won't rot, rust, or run—the only master who gave Himself fully for us.Main Points:1. Pursuit shapes the person – What we chase is forming our soul2. Perception fuels perspective – What we focus on fills us with light or darkness3. Priority reveals the master – You can't serve God and moneyThis sermon will help you:- Identify idols and misplaced trust- Reorient your life around eternal purpose- Learn to live with spiritual clarity and kingdom vision- Experience the freedom of wholehearted devotion to ChristHave you ever chased something that promised satisfaction but left you restless? This message speaks directly to that ache and invites you into a better way—a life centered on Jesus.

The Calling to Reorient the Self How can the sacred be recovered in a world fractured by autonomy and fragmentation? In this deeply personal episode of Kainos on The Lectern, recorded during a session hosted by Alexander Beiner on Kainos, John Vervaeke shares reflections from his recent pilgrimage across Europe—what he calls the Philosophical Silk Road. Weaving through sacred conversations and historic locations, he explores profound ideas like theosis, theoria, and voluntary necessity, inviting listeners into a lived philosophy of sacred participation. From Istanbul to Rome to Amsterdam, each location becomes a catalyst for insight and inner transformation. Vervaeke challenges the Enlightenment's idolization of autonomy and points toward a new possibility: a spirituality of finite transcendence, rooted in embodied knowing and dialogical belonging. This episode offers a raw and unfiltered account of mystical experience, intellectual shift, and spiritual disorientation—all in service of rediscovering what it means to be in contact with reality, in its fullest, most sacred form.

In this powerful and emotionally honest session, Christine coaches Tiffany—a gifted, intuitive woman who's been living inside the identity of caretaker, rescuer, and savior. As someone raised in a family marked by addiction, loss, and emotional chaos, Tiffany learned early on to take responsibility for others' well-being, often at the expense of her own. Now, with a brother spiraling and a deep longing to create a family of her own, Tiffany finds herself stuck in an exhausting cycle of overgiving, people-pleasing, and spiritual burnout. Christine gently but firmly guides her toward a redefinition of love—one that includes boundaries, dignity, and surrender, not depletion. This episode speaks to every empath, helper, or healer who struggles with giving too much, confusing martyrdom with love, and forgetting their own needs in service of saving others. Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you feel responsible for other people's healing, happiness, or choices? Have you been confusing helping with over-giving—or love with martyrdom? Are you exhausted from trying to fix or save others who haven't asked for your support? What might open up for you if you believed that everyone is on their own soul path—and you don't have to intervene? Key Insights and A-HAs: Being the “savior” is often a survival role rooted in early identity confusion—not your true purpose. There's a sacred difference between being of service and being responsible for others. You can give people the dignity of their own process—and that is its own act of love. God/Source never asks you to deplete yourself in the name of love. When you stop over-giving, you make space for reciprocal love, rest, and your rightful life. How to Deepen the Work: Reflect on this mantra: “I no longer rob others of the dignity of their own process.” Get honest about where you're still playing the role of rescuer—and release it with compassion. Reorient your energy through prayer, meditation, or spiritual practices that restore you. Redefine your non-negotiables in relationships, especially around addiction, boundaries, and reciprocity. Begin to build a new identity: one rooted in self-trust, clear agreements, and spiritual alignment—not sacrifice.   Upcoming Event: The San Diego Women's Retreat (Oct. 17–19, 2025)If this episode resonated, you're invited to Christine's signature women's retreat—a high-frequency, transformational experience designed to reconnect you with your truth, your joy, and your courage. Whether you're in a season of rebuilding or simply seeking maintenance for your soul, this retreat offers intentional support and sacred community. Early bird discount ending soon.

We all have moments where everything feels hard—parenting, food choices, work, motivation. But what if the real problem isn't the hard? What if it's the headline we keep writing about it? In this episode, we're talking about how your internal headlines, orientation, and daily anchors shape your progress—or your struggle. Because it's not just about effort. It's about direction. And if you're not tethered to the right things, you will drift.

STARTING TODAY TUNE IN TO https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking WITH SHERI HORN HASAN as we look back at all the mind-boggling Astro News You Can Use this past week & what's coming next!We start with the Pisces New Moon monthly lunar cycle which squared Jupiter in Gemini back on February 27 & led to the overly enthusiastic yet expansively arrogant dramatic reception by President Donald Trump & vice president J.D. Vance in the White House on February 28.It seemed back then like things were only going downhill from there-- what with unelected billionaire Elon Musk in charge of gutting federal governmental services that U.S. citizens rely on under the guise of eliminating waste & fraud. Moving fast and breaking things his specialty, Musk didn't take long to fall out of favor with Americans suffering from his financial cuts by the time we reached the March 6 first quarter lunar crisis in action mutable square of the Gemini Moon to the Pisces Sun. Musk's reply?“Everybody's talkin' at me, I don't hear a word they're saying…”Things were in flux all right, and by the time of the March 7/8 Pisces Sun trined Mars—by then direct in Cancer since February 23—it was clear that everything was not going to be ok. It slowly began to dawn on larger numbers of people that America's current situation was not sustainable and that a radical change would be necessary for the future, as Erin Sullivan defines this aspect in her book “Retrograde Planets.” By March 8, U.S. green card holders—legally allowed to live and work here--were being arrested without being charged with a crime or the right to an attorney & sent to harsh ICE prisons. By March 9, both Americans and Canadians were fed up—the former with Musk's federal job & funding cuts beginning to reverberate negatively throughout society & the latter as the U.S. president refused to shut up about making Canada America's 51st state--& began attacking Tesla dealerships.Meanwhile, lawsuits against the Trump administration's actions began to deluge the courts and now total 146. Approximately one-third of these are now under judicial restraints via various judges' rulings against federal employee firings, the defunding of Congressionally approved programs, veterans' healthcare and other benefits, and so much more.With Venus already retrograde in Aries since March 1 & Mercury having stationed retrograde in Aries 14/15--just after the first Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse on March 13/14—it seemed inevitable that the truth was beginning to dawn even on those who'd voted for this current administration of billionaires. Not to mention their GOP Congressional sidekicks who'd by then become too afraid to hold public town halls with their angry constituents.However, since the Sun/Neptune conjunction in Pisces March 19 & the Sun's entrance into Aries at the spring equinox March 20, a shift began to take place. Such an obvious lack of compassion of the “let them eat cake” kind, combined with a callous inattention to detail, began to give way by the time the Sun's entrance into Aries called us all into the fight.Since they, we've been morphing away from delusional Piscean energy & toward the higher Piscean manifestation of empathy, & into a more proactive “fight for the right to have rights!” Aries battle cry. And with Venus retrograde have reached her inferior conjunction with the Sun in Aries March 22, we're now, by March 29, at the heliacal rising at time when global leaders tend to lose their heads, so to speak…At the Sun joined Mercury in Aries on March 24—usually an important announcement of some kind from or about leaders, as I noted in last week's podcast—we learned about how top secret U.S. military classified information was disseminated via the unprotected Signal chat app. As we move closer to early May's conjunction between transiting Uranus and “off with his head” fixed star Algol, no surprise that calls for the resignation of our current Pisces Moon Defense Secretary are, in true Aries fashion, getting louder by the day. My March 26's Mars square to wounded healer Chiron, it was obvious how this incident “wounded” our military by weakening its defenses through allowing those listening (are you listening Russia? How about you China? Oh, and what about Iran?) as one of the participants on that chat was actually IN Moscow on an unsecured line at the time. Are ya wakin' up yet, folks?Now as we approach tomorrow's Aries New Moon solar eclipse--& this eclipse series is a physically themed one which has already been filled with accidents, fires, military attacks, etc.—it also brings both luminaries together in alignment—both heart and mind. And Saturn sextiles Uranus now, telling us we have the opportunity to bring revolutionary forces together to try to heal some of the current wounds sustained through the Mars/Chiron square. Remember, this is all under the guise of the current U.S. Pluto return, which ain't gonna be over til it's over, and that's a long way off. Let's use this Aries New Moon solar eclipse to organize the troops necessary, to partner with those who need the most defending from harm, and not give up until the job is done…For this and more Astro News You Can Use, tune into https://www.karmicevolution.com/ See you then!

Is Jesus an accessory we add to our life? Or does He completely take over and transform us? In chapter six, Paul writes to Corinthians who believe in a false gospel and are trying to live a changed life in the flesh. Paul implores them to come out of hiding, repent, and return. True believers' lives, affections, and behaviors are reoriented toward Christ.  Speaker: Brad Bell
