In this workshop from the 2024 Rooted Conference, Jonathan Holmes unpacks what it means to pursue true rest in ministry. Framed around four key movements—the problem with rest, the answer to rest, how to rest personally, and how to build cultures of rest—this session offers practical and theological insight for leaders who want to lead from a place of peace rather than burnout. Jonathan Holmes is the Founder and Executive Director of Fieldstone Counseling. He previously served for fifteen years on the pastoral teams of Parkside Church and Parkside Green. Jonathan graduated from The Master's University with degrees in Biblical Counseling and History and his MA from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is the author and contributor to a number of books including, The Company We Keep, Counsel for Couples, Rescue Skills, and Rescue Plan. He and his wife, Jennifer, have four daughters.

In this episode, we reflect on Peter stepping out of the boat to walk toward Jesus in the middle of the storm and what happens when fear shifts his focus from Jesus to the wind and the waves (Matthew 14:22–33).We talk about bold faith, human weakness, and the grace of a Savior who immediately reaches out to rescue Peter when he begins to sink.This conversation is also personal, as we share how easy it is to focus on unexpected or difficult news instead of the goodness God has already shown us and how that shift can lead to fear instead of gratitude.Ultimately, this episode reminds us that it's not the storm or the circumstances that deserve our focus…but Jesus, who is King over it all and able to do immeasurably MORE than we could ever ask or imagine (Ephesians 3:20).Music: “River,” an original piano piece written and performed by Benjamin Waggoner.We would like to pray for you.

Is faith in Jesus really enough to forgive my sins? In this message, Pastor Josh Husmann breaks down the sacrifice Jesus paid to save you and how adding steps to grace actually subtracts from Christ.
Ever wondered why your child's spark fades the longer they stay in a school environment that never quite fits? On this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast, Dr. Amy and Sandy sit down with master educator and homeschool expert Christy Faith to rethink the purpose of education and design a path that actually supports healthy development. Drawing on decades of work with families, Christy shares why home-based education isn't about recreating school at the dining table—it's about building a flexible team of co-ops, live online classes, tutors, and parent coaching that aligns with your values and your child's needs.We unpack the socialization debate with a fresh lens: belonging versus fitting in, and why peer orientation can derail identity and confidence. If your kid lives in fight or flight, learning stalls. You'll hear how reducing chronic stress at home can unlock curiosity, grit, and self-regulation without coddling. We talk indicators that school isn't working—rising anxiety, shame from labels, and mounting family conflict—and outline how to respond with deschooling, intentional routines, and practical supports that restore calm and momentum.Then we get tactical. Learn how to pick curriculum by educational style and place by skill rather than age, especially when learning is asynchronous. Discover why “it's the brain, not the books” matters: if working memory, processing speed, or visual processing lag, no worksheet swap will fix it. We share a real-world story of letting a teen experience safe failure to build executive function, and how to coach time management without hovering. Expect a balanced roadmap: fewer bells, more thinking; fewer labels, more growth; strong academics paired with resilient minds.If you're on the fence, this conversation offers clear next steps, free tools to find your homeschool style, and encouragement to make changes at a humane pace.

In this workshop from the 2024 Rooted Conference in Dallas, Jonathan Holmes offers a gospel-centered framework for engaging in conversations about gender. He begins with two cultural observations that shape how we think about identity today and then outlines five key problems with modern-day identity formation.

In today's fiery episode, Tara breaks down why America's affordability crisis isn't an accident — it's a deliberate result of massive money-printing, political games, and economic manipulation.
Humans have a problem asking for help. We can probably chalk it up to our proud hearts.Often, when we are really up against it, that's when we resist seeking help.Jesus does away with all that.Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”Ask yourself: is my pride keeping me from asking for help? If so, mull that over. And then, take a step toward the Lord and ask for what you need.God opens doors when we ask Him to. And sometimes what we find on the other side isn't what we expected. When that happens, we choose patience, and we remain open to His good plans for us. When you've asked God to help and your prayers are answered, share the Good News with people you meet. Tell anyone who will listen that the Lord of the Universe cared about you and delivered you from a problem no one else could solve. And if the answer He gave was totally unexpected and sent you in a different direction — share that, too. Accepting God's plan when it doesn't match up with our own best-laid plans is what faith is all about.Let's pray. Lord, please give us a heart that seeks you. God, we want to be obedient, and we know that your blessings, whatever they look like, will follow. Thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

When everything seemed broken beyond repair, God began His rescue plan — not through armies or kings, but through one ordinary man named Abram. In this message, Dr. Scott Wilson unpacks Genesis 12 and shows how God called Abram out of the familiar, gave him promises he didn't deserve, and used him to bless the […]

God's rescue plan is unlike any other — through the humility, suffering, and death of Jesus, we find eternal life and victory. Isaiah 52–53 reminds us that Christ bore our sin, took our punishment, and brought us hope.
Genesis 6 reveals profound truths about God's character through Noah's story. God's judgment of a world filled with violence and evil demonstrates His perfect justice flowing from His holiness. Yet in the midst of judgment, God initiates rescue by providing detailed instructions for the ark. This pattern of creation, de-creation, and recreation foreshadows God's ultimate salvation plan. The ark itself symbolizes Christ - with one door representing the single path to salvation, its pitch covering pointing to atonement, and its security reflecting our safety in Christ. At the cross, God's justice and mercy perfectly meet, offering us salvation not through our own efforts but through taking refuge in Christ.

if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard) – if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from the Lord. But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, revelling in their pleasures while they feast with you. With eyes full of adultery, they never stop sinning; they seduce the unstable; they are experts in greed – an accursed brood! They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Bezer, who loved the wages of wickedness. But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey – an animal without speech – who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet's madness. (2 Peter 2.6-16, NIV)
In this episode of Coaching In Session, host Michael Rearden welcomes Sean Kullman, educator, researcher, and co-author of Boys, A Rescue Plan, to discuss the urgent challenges boys face in education and society. Sean highlights the importance of kinesthetic learning, understanding brain sex differences, and adapting educational systems to better engage boys.The conversation also explores the role of fathers, the stigma surrounding masculinity, and the necessity of mentorship and emotional regulation.

Hebrews: The True and Better - Hebrews 2.10-18Jobey McGintyIt may not be possible for us to fully understand the depths of our sin, but even a surface level comprehension should bring us to our knees. God, of course, sees our sin for what it is and knows that it requires a rescue plan that is beyond our comprehension or capability. And God's Word says that it was “fitting” that God would come up with a particular plan to exonerate us, and the plan would be preposterous. He Himself would stand in our place. And God called this “fitting." It is necessary that something/someone as amazingly perfect should be what satisfies the justice of God, because sin is itself amazingly treacherous. And because Jesus has become a human and endured all that we have, He has become a perfect, sympathetic, and faithful High Priest who ministers to us and for us.
Pastor Lee brought an inspiring message titled "God's Rescue Plan." Be sure to check it out and share!
In this powerful message, we're challenged to embrace our role as witnesses for Christ. The central theme revolves around Luke 24:36-49, where Jesus appears to His disciples after the resurrection. This passage reminds us that we, who know God, are called to make Him known to others. Just as Jesus sent out His disciples, He's sending us out into the world to share His love and salvation. The message draws an intriguing parallel between the recent rescue of astronauts from the International Space Station and God's cosmic rescue plan for humanity through Jesus. This comparison helps us understand the urgency and importance of our mission as believers. We're reminded that our faith in the resurrection equips us to handle life's challenges and empowers us to change the world. When we truly grasp the reality of Christ's resurrection, we can face difficulties with peace and purpose, knowing that our ultimate hope lies beyond this world.

A focus on Ephesians 2, particularly the stark contrast between humanity's fallen state and God's redemptive love. Pastor Osborne describes the first three verses as among the darkest in Scripture, detailing humanity's spiritual death through sin, cultural bondage, and Satan's influence. However, the message pivots on the powerful phrase 'But God,' highlighting how God's rich mercy and great love provide salvation through Christ despite our deserving of wrath. The message emphasizes that while we are dead in our sins and under God's wrath, God's love and mercy lead Him to make us alive in Christ. This redemption comes through Jesus taking our sin, death, and God's wrath upon Himself, offering His righteousness in exchange for our sin.
Perhaps in no previous time has it become more obvious that boys are struggling. Their mental health challenges have become severe. Boys are behind girls in education and maturation. Screen time and social media have become an affliction. Many of our sons grow up courting violence. Many others live in quiet desperation. While arguments about the politics of masculinity abound, there is little help today for parents, schools, and communities to raise, educate, and nurture boys. In this podcast we interview Michael Gurian, PhD talks about how to connect with our boys and addresses differences in the neurology and overall psychology of our boys to better understand their needs.Michael Gurian is a marriage and family counselor in his thirty-fourth year of private practice (michaelgurian.com) and the New York Times bestselling author of thirty-six books. The Gurian Institute, which he cofounded in 1996, conducts research internationally, launches pilot programs, and trains professionals (gurianinstitute.com). Dr. Gurian has a new book out "Boys: A Rescue Plan" that delves further into this topic: https://a.co/d/2NmJdnY Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We did it OOBTers! We've made it to the last chapters of Leviticus! Let's be honest: Leviticus is the book where most Bible reading plans go to die… but not us! We stuck it out, and these final chapters (24-27) are packed with powerful reminders of God's holiness, His rescue plan, and His desire to walk among us. So good. In this episode, we're breaking it all down: Why honoring God's name matters and what happens when people don't. The concept of Sabbath and Jubilee years—where debts are canceled, slaves are freed, and the land itself gets to rest! (hello, freedom and restoration!) A big if/then moment—God lays out the blessings of obedience and the tough consequences of turning away. But even in the warnings, His mercy shines through! AND THEN, in the final chapter, we see a call to full dedication because everything ultimately belongs to God. Through all of this, we see that these laws aren't just ancient rules—they point straight to Jesus and God's ultimate plan to redeem and restore us. So beautiful.

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is at Gainesville State University in Gainesville, Georgia and discusses physical blindness vs spiritual blindness, wavering faith, and how to share your faith most effectively. Segment 1: • Sight vs. Insight: A blind student reflects on how losing his vision helped him see the world differently. • Honest Self-Examination: Despite claiming to be “good,” admits to breaking God's laws, including lying and dishonoring parents. • Gospel Reminder: Salvation is not about being “not bad”; it's about trusting Jesus, who died for sinners. Segment 2: • Facing the Judge: A candid student fears what God might say about his life but admits he hasn't followed Him fully. • The Disconnect: "I do everything for me," he confesses, highlighting the gap between claiming faith and living it. • A Clear Choice: Understand who Jesus is, and either reject or embrace His offer of mercy. Segment 3: • The Honesty Test: A robe-wearing student grapples with lies, theft, and lust, admitting, “I'm not living like a Christian.” • A Savior for the Bad Restaurant: Illustrates how Jesus saves not the “clean” but the broken and sinful. • Why It Matters: Until we see how bad we are, we can't fully appreciate the depth of Christ's sacrifice. Segment 4: • Laser-Focused Gospel: Avoid distractions and present the gospel as forgiveness for sin, not a fix for life's problems. • Grace Over Effort: True salvation comes from trust in Jesus, not personal performance or “earning” God's favor. • Daily Freedom: The gospel isn't just for salvation—it's for daily living in the assurance of God's unchanging grace. ___ Thanks for listening!
