Clyde Simpson shares his powerful insights on spiritual growth and development, offering a clear roadmap for Christians to move from spiritual infancy to full maturity through proper understanding of Scripture.• The vast majority (99%) of Christians never progress beyond spiritual infancy due to lack of proper teaching• Romans provides the foundational doctrine for Christian growth, with Corinthians offering reproof and Galatians providing correction• Understanding which books of the Bible were written specifically to Gentile believers versus Jewish believers provides crucial context• The growth process follows three steps: understanding God's love (Romans 1-9), responding to that love (Romans 10), and being transformed (Romans 12)• Christians often take Scripture out of context because they're taught to jump between different passages without understanding their purpose• Spiritual growth happens automatically when believers plant the Word in their hearts and renew their minds• Christ's sacrifice addresses wholeness in all three dimensions: spiritual, mental, and physical• Moving beyond spiritual infancy requires a clear understanding of doctrine before advancing to deeper teachingsFind Clyde Simpson's books, including "Spiritual Growth and Development from Babe to Full Maturity" and "Christian Leadership: Honor, Reverence and Respect for God in His Word" on Amazon or at ClydeSimpsonBooks.com.Support the showDON'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT EMERGENCY, PLUS, SAVE 15%: https://www.twc.health/elsa#ifounditonamazon https://a.co/ekT4dNOTRY AUDIBLE PLUS: https://amzn.to/3vb6Rw3Elsa's Books: https://www.amazon.com/~/e/B01E1VFRFQDesign Like A Pro: https://canva.7eqqol.net/xg6Nv...

This final episode centers on Puja (To Revere)—honoring true greatness in a way that humbles the ego and uplifts the spirit. Reverence starts with active listening, evolves to active reflecting, then actively living by the example of the wise.

In this study we learn practical ways of how we can move from rebellion to reverence- a must for our spiritual health.

What happens when we lose our awe for the Creator? In this first message of our series, Ps. Rey explores the profound consequences of a life without reverence for God. Discover why a casual attitude toward God can lead to a spiritual disconnect and how a renewed sense of reverence can restore our relationship with Him.

In today's message, Francis Chan challenges our modern assumptions about worship, prayer, and the presence of God. Drawing from Hebrews 12, he paints a vivid picture of the God we've forgotten—blazing fire, darkness, tempest, unapproachable light—and reminds us that worship isn't about our preferences or opinions, but about coming before the Almighty with reverence and awe. Wherever you're listening today, this is a word to sit with, to wrestle with, and to let reshape how you approach the living God.

This morning, we explored the profound and often misunderstood concept of the “fear of the Lord.” While Scripture repeatedly tells us not to fear in the sense of dread or terror, it also calls us to a different kind of fear—a deep reverence and awe for God's majesty, power, and holiness. This isn't a fear that drives us away, but one that draws us near, bowing in humility before the One who holds oceans in His hand, spans the universe, and breathes out stars. At the same time, this God is the approachable Jesus, our comforter and friend, who walked among us and gave Himself for us. Holding both truths together—God's infinite greatness and His intimate nearness—transforms how we live. Understanding the fear of the Lord changes everything. It leads to radical obedience, as seen in Noah's willingness to build the ark without all the details, simply trusting the One who asked. It frees us from the need to control outcomes, reminding us that our job is obedience and God's job is results. This reverence also helps us accept correction, knowing that when God calls us to change, it's the voice of the all-knowing Creator, not just human opinion. It strengthens our faith in God's promises, because the One making those promises is the same One who created the stars and numbers the hairs on our heads. And it deepens our value for prayer, because we're not just speaking into the air—we're talking to the all-powerful, all-loving God who delights to hear and answer.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Reverence feels like a relic from another time, yet its absence leaves us spiritually and relationally impoverished. Greg Schlueter, author and family movement leader, joins Jack to explore why reverence matters in an age that devalues in human life itself. The conversation takes us deep into the transformative power of reverence – not as empty ritual, but as the gateway to authentic relationship. "Our bodies, in fact our bodies alone, make visible the invisible, the spiritual and the divine," drawing from Saint John Paul II's profound theology of the body. When we genuflect, bow our heads, or dress respectfully for sacred spaces, we're not merely performing – we're allowing our physical selves to express spiritual realities.This crisis of reverence extends far beyond church walls. Our casual approach to commitments – showing up late, dismissing obligations, treating our word as provisional – reflects a deeper spiritual problem. "The enemy strikes at the heart of this by saying commitment is not sacred, it's dismissible," Greg explains. When everyday promises become optional, authentic community crumbles.Here's Gregs article: The Case for Reverence in an Age of Casualness"I Love my Family" Live it todayJack's Latest Blog: Stepping Up to True Love: The Fall and the Call to Be a Man of GodSupport the show

Artist Joyce McDonald was born in 1951 and raised in Brooklyn's Farragut Houses. But she didn't start pursuing art until the 1990s, after being introduced to sculpture in an art therapy program while recovering from drug addiction. McDonald, who was also diagnosed with HIV in 1985, found that art gave her a way to express herself, and honed her craft with Visual AIDS, which supports artists living with HIV. Her ceramic pieces and archival materials are the subject of a new exhibit at the Bronx Museum, 'Ministry: Reverend Joyce McDonald,' on view through January 11. McDonald discusses her life and art, and why she decided to become a minister at the Church of the Open Door.

Pastor Jenae Acevedo explains that fearing God is reverential awe, not terror, contrasting it with the fear of man that leads to people-pleasing and compromise. Drawing from Matthew 10:28 and her experience after reading John Bevere's The Awe of God, she calls us to prioritize God's will over human approval.

In this sermon, we explored what it means to walk wisely as followers of Jesus, drawing from Ephesians 5:15-21. Using the analogy of dietary supplements, I pointed out that while physical supplements may help our bodies, the essential “supplement” for our souls is the Holy Spirit. We discussed how the “evil days” described by Paul are not just about the world's problems, but about how life can rob us of expectancy, hope, and purpose—leaving us sleepwalking through our days. The solution is to redeem our time, be filled with the Spirit, and let that filling overflow into praise, thankfulness, and submission to one another. True wisdom is found not in busyness or self-focus, but in living awake to God's presence, empowered by the Spirit, and oriented toward others.

True restoration doesn't come through our own efforts but through the power of God's Spirit. When we try to rebuild in our own strength, we burn out and fall short. But when we allow God to guide the process, He brings lasting change and renewal. In this message, Pastor John Conway shares how to rebuild God's way.

Psalm 90 WorksheetThis is the first Psalm in Book 4 of the Psalms (Psalm 90-Psalm 106). The title says this is “A Prayer of Moses the man of God.” That means this Psalm is the _____________________ Psalm in the Bible. Moses' _____________________________ V. 1-11Verses 1-2 use beautiful _____________________ (chiastic structure) to state that the eternal God existed before the creation He made. Having established that the infinite God stands above time, in verses 3-4 Moses speaks of God's sovereignty over finite man, whose earthly life is ___________________ by time and space. The words turn and return in verse 3 come from the same Hebrew word, a play on words that is complimented in verse 13. Because our _____________________ are finite and will ‘return' to the ground, our only hope is God ‘returning' to us! But beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but all come to repentance. -2 Peter 3:8 Verses 5-6 bear down on the _____________________________ nature of man's earthly life. All of the ‘here today, gone tomorrow' aspects of our lives are because of what happened in Genesis 3 – sin and death entering the world. Moses reminds us of the ‘___________________ of sin' in verses 7-9. Scripture often presents the consequences and then reminds us of the ___________________. Until we are saved we are under God's wrath because we are sinners by nature and by choice (John 3:36; Gen. 15:6).Verse 10 demonstrates the truthfulness of the Bible. Moses died at 120 years of age (Deuteronomy 34:7). But the Spirit led Him to accurately state the ______________________________ lifespan of humans in our post-flood world. In 2023 the average life expectancy worldwide was 73.33 years.What great hymn do we get from verse 10? ___________________________ He will swallow up death for all time, and the Lord GOD will wipe tears away from all faces, and He will remove the disgrace of His people from all the earth; For the LORD has spoken. And it will be said on that day, Behold, this is our God for whom we have waited that He might save us. -Isaiah 25:8-9 (NASB 2020)Verse 11b could be literally translated Reverence due, wrath extracted. From that we gather that each of us has a ‘glory deficit' before God. There is the glory our lives could have brought the Lord, and there is the actual amount we have brought Him, and there is a VAST ______________ between the two. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. -Romans 3:23Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. -Romas 3:24Romans 3:22 says the righteousness of God is only credited to us when we place our faith in Jesus, just like Genesis 15:6 said. Moses' _______________________________ V. 12-17Verse 12 is a great verse about making sure we plan our days around God's ________________ for our lives. Learning to number our days helps us say ‘yes' to what God wants us to say ‘yes' to and ‘no' to what God wants us to say ‘no' to.I love the verbs in verses 13-15, what Moses ask God to do to ‘________________________' godly living – Return; Have compassion; Satisfy us; Make us glad! Don't spend too much time regretting past inaction for the Lord. He has you in a place of faith and seeking Him now, and He is more than capable of replacing wasted days with days of _________________ and impact. I will restore to you the years that the swarming locusts have eaten. -Joel 2:25What a great prayer to end a great Psalm – As we prioritize godly living and choices in the time we have left we ask God to establish the work of our hands, really to establish what we do for Him for His glory!

A listener named John asks Father Dave about correct postures when receiving the Eucharist. “I've seen an increase of people kneeling to receive communion. I've heard Father Dave comment on this before, but I'm wondering if he can address this.” John begins. “Every week, our priest calls out people for leaving after communion [before Mass ends]. Why not correct those who kneel to receive when that's not an option given to us by the Church, when not in a traditional Latin Mass setting?”  

SummaryIn this stirring message from Wayman Wednesday, Pastor Wayman Mitchell calls believers to a life of radical commitment, sacrifice, and sanctification. Using Acts 21 as his primary text, Pastor Mitchell challenges Christians to remove all boundaries in serving God—whether in ministry, outreach, holiness, or personal sacrifice.With vivid illustrations from military service, missionary work, and scripture, he confronts the modern church's comfort-driven mindset and calls for a generation willing to say, “Whatever it takes” to fulfill the will of God.Key Scriptures:Acts 21:10–14, 261 Timothy 1:12Jonah 1:1–32 Corinthians 4:5, 12:15Nehemiah 4:13–151 Thessalonians 4:3–4Titus 2:11–12Chapters00:00 – Introduction: Wayman Wednesday on Taking the Land Podcast01:36 – A Conference Filled with God's Presence03:58 – The World's Mentality: No Longer Worth Fighting For04:53 – The Church's Need for Paul's Spirit07:10 – Commitment Over Personal Preference08:35 – Choosing God Over Secular Priorities10:06 – The Will of the Lord Be Done12:03 – Lessons from Military Commitment13:47 – Guerrilla Teams & Outreach Mindset15:53 – Understanding We Are at War17:19 – No Excuses: Whatever It Takes18:51 – Sacrifice: A Lost Word in Today's Church20:54 – Paul's Willingness to Suffer for Christ23:01 – Examples of “Whatever It Takes” in Scripture24:43 – Sanctification in a Prophetic Generation26:20 – Holiness vs. Religious Appearance27:42 – The Call to Purification and Set-Apart Living29:52 – Possessing Your Vessel in Honor31:08 – Avoiding Sinful Entertainment31:36 – Holiness is for Every Believer33:39 – Sanctifying the Lord in Your Heart34:28 – Removing Boundaries in Serving God35:43 – Whatever It Takes: Even in Giving36:54 – Consecration in Attitudes and Relationships38:29 – Reverence in Prayer39:34 – Biblical Responses to God's Presence40:51 – Isaiah's Vision of the Lord41:13 – Jacob's Encounter with God42:07 – Closing Challenge: Whatever It TakesShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

In A Reverence for Rivers: Imagining an Ethic for Running Waters (OSU Press, 2025), Kurt Fausch draws on his experience as a stream ecologist, his interest in Indigenous cultures, and a thoughtful consideration of environmental ethics to explore human values surrounding freshwater ecosystems. Focusing on seven rivers across the globe—from the Salmon River in Oregon to the Sarufutsu River in Japan—he examines the growing ethical dilemmas threatening our rivers, including increasing demands for water, habitat fragmentation, overfishing, and deepening climate change. How do we decide which rivers deserve legal protection? What is our right to water as humans? And how do we foster resilient rivers? Through a combination of scientific expertise and thoughtful observations of the natural world, Fausch translates the science of rivers into accessible language for readers and begins to address these questions. He weaves deep Indigenous histories throughout the book and includes personal visits to tribal lands to explore the traditional values held by several Indigenous groups. Fausch reminds us that our connection to rivers is personal and grounded in specific places, flowing from the stories we carry about our relationships with and responsibilities to these rivers. In a final essay Fausch ponders Aldo Leopold's statement that “nothing so important as an ethic is ever written,” but instead evolves in the minds of a thinking community. A Reverence for Rivers speaks to both the mind and the heart, offering perspectives so that we might begin to imagine and create an ethic for living with and caring for the running waters on which we rely for so much. Dr. Kurt Fausch is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology at Colorado State University, where he taught for 35 years. His research collaborations in stream fish ecology and conservation have taken him throughout Colorado and the West, and worldwide, including to Hokkaido in northern Japan.

In A Reverence for Rivers: Imagining an Ethic for Running Waters (OSU Press, 2025), Kurt Fausch draws on his experience as a stream ecologist, his interest in Indigenous cultures, and a thoughtful consideration of environmental ethics to explore human values surrounding freshwater ecosystems. Focusing on seven rivers across the globe—from the Salmon River in Oregon to the Sarufutsu River in Japan—he examines the growing ethical dilemmas threatening our rivers, including increasing demands for water, habitat fragmentation, overfishing, and deepening climate change. How do we decide which rivers deserve legal protection? What is our right to water as humans? And how do we foster resilient rivers? Through a combination of scientific expertise and thoughtful observations of the natural world, Fausch translates the science of rivers into accessible language for readers and begins to address these questions. He weaves deep Indigenous histories throughout the book and includes personal visits to tribal lands to explore the traditional values held by several Indigenous groups. Fausch reminds us that our connection to rivers is personal and grounded in specific places, flowing from the stories we carry about our relationships with and responsibilities to these rivers. In a final essay Fausch ponders Aldo Leopold's statement that “nothing so important as an ethic is ever written,” but instead evolves in the minds of a thinking community. A Reverence for Rivers speaks to both the mind and the heart, offering perspectives so that we might begin to imagine and create an ethic for living with and caring for the running waters on which we rely for so much. Dr. Kurt Fausch is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology at Colorado State University, where he taught for 35 years. His research collaborations in stream fish ecology and conservation have taken him throughout Colorado and the West, and worldwide, including to Hokkaido in northern Japan. His experiences were chronicled in the PBS documentary RiverWebs, and the 2015 book For the Love of Rivers: A Scientist's Journey which won the Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing Award.

Welcome to episode 90 of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. In this installment, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach/journalist Jo Confino are joined by Nho Tran, a nun in the Plum Village tradition for 17 years now continuing her spiritual journey as a layperson.  Together, they explore the profound importance of spiritual friendship in the Buddhist tradition, while Brother Phap Huu and Nho reflect on the personal journey of their decades-long friendship. They discuss the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh on the centrality of community and togetherness in cultivating joy, stability, and liberation; the challenges and growth experienced through friendship; and the importance of deep listening and being present for one another, which allows for vulnerability, honesty, and the freedom to be one’s authentic self. Bio Nho Tran is a scholar, facilitator, and former Buddhist nun in the Plum Village tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. She spent many years living and practicing in monastic communities across Asia, Europe, and North America, where she cultivated a deep commitment to interbeing, cultural resilience, and the art of mindful living. Nho's work sits at the intersection of conflict transformation, ethics, and systems thinking. Drawing on her monastic formation and experience across diverse sectors, she supports individuals and communities in navigating difficult conversations, fostering cultural change, and reimagining leadership grounded in compassion and collective wisdom. She holds a joint degree in Cognitive Neuroscience and Religion from the University of Southern California, a Master of Divinity from Harvard Divinity School, and an MA from Harvard University. She is currently a PhD candidate at Harvard's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, where her research explores the intersections of religion, ethics, governance, and Vietnamese Buddhist history. Nho teaches negotiation, ethics, and conflict resolution at Harvard, and continues to serve as a bridge between contemplative practice and social transformation.

It is also the intention that a teacher sees our potential in it. And it’s something that is given to us to practice for our whole life.” “Learn to befriend yourself first, and then learn to be a friend of many.” “Spiritual friendship is the whole of the spiritual path. It is the entirety of the spirit path.” “Monk, you have to have a good friendship. You have to have good conversations. You have to have good deeds. You have to have good efforts. And then you have a grasp on impermanence.” “The joy of meditation is daily food.” “One of our teacher Thay’s realizations was that our deepest suffering is loneliness, and it comes from the wrong views of what success is, which is individualistic.” “Reverence is the nature of my love.” “In true love, there’s freedom.” “True love is being present.” “Understanding is another word for love.” “Mindfulness always has to have an object.” “There are ways in which, when people hear, ‘Oh, in true love, there is freedom', they will be like, ‘Oh, freedom means I can do whatever I want.' There’s a sort of recklessness. And that’s not the type of freedom I’m talking about. I’m talking about some real, raw, internal stuff, where I can show up in this relationship and he can show up in this relationship in his undefended self.” “We have to expand our hearts and our way of being to bring people in, because we need friends.” “Thay said that even if you’re an activist and you're saving people’s lives and you’re building humanity and rebuilding villages, if you’re doing it from a place of self, of pride and ego: don’t do it. Enter into interbeing; do this because you see them as you, then you can be ‘in service of'.” “A true friend is someone who understands your suffering, who listens deeply without judging and who is capable of being there with you in difficult moments. They don’t try to fix you, they simply sit with you, in mindfulness. This kind of presence is rare and it is a great gift. When you find such a friend, cherish them, because they help you touch the peace and freedom that are already within you.” “The greatest technology we have is each other. These relationships that we have with each other, we keep seeking something else. But the thing that makes us feel like we are living a meaningful life is being seen and acknowledged and recognized by the gaze of another person, the loving gaze of another person.” “The most powerful spiritual technology is the coming together.” “I tell people to come to Plum Village, but not to try to learn something. Come here just to be. Because I think our thirst for ‘a fix' is so powerful now. We’re looking for a spiritual teaching to fix us; we’re looking to fix all of our suffering. And guess what? Some of your suffering, you might not be able to fix it.”
