Brian welcomes singer-songwriter and author Laura Story to discuss her new book Stand in Awe: How Reverence Transforms Our Worship and Our Lives. Laura unpacks what reverence really means — approaching God with humility and surrender rather than treating Him like "a genie in a lamp" — and walks through four common tendencies that erode it: casual worship, self-focused worship, shallow worship, and distracted worship. She talks about living out that reverence seven days a week, not just on Sunday mornings, and points to Isaiah's vision in Isaiah 6 as a model of awe leading to surrender and mission. The conversation closes with the story behind her hit song "Blessings," written in the aftermath of her husband's brain tumor diagnosis and the lasting brain injury that followed, and how she's stepped back from touring to focus on her four kids while continuing to write and record.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Beyond Creation's First Song in 8 Years + 7 Underground Metal Bands You Need to Hear — reacting to new music from Barrage, Intent to Harm, Guhn Twei, and more. Full metal reaction breakdown inside. (199 characters)In this episode of Metal Maniacs, we're reacting to 8 brand new tracks spanning the full spectrum of metal and hardcore — from Canadian Grammy-nominated tech-death veterans Beyond Creation dropping their first new single in eight years, to underground acts fighting for their first real shot.We cover Beyond Creation's comeback single "Reverence," Kansas City heavy outfit Barrage's claustrophobic new single "Closing In," Australian death/hardcore project Intent to Harm and the incredible true story behind founder Matt Turkington — a musician who lost the ability to perform extreme vocals after multiple back surgeries and taught himself guitar while recovering, flat on his back. We also dig into politically-charged French-Canadian metal/punk band Guhn Twei (two-time GAMIQ Metal Album of the Year winner), Georgia rockers Perrish 9, hard rock band Whisper to Scream, tech-death act Omittance, and DIY teenage garage band Desolate.This is what The Metal Maniacs is all about — giving underground bands a real platform alongside bigger names, breaking down the songwriting, production, and stories behind the music, and helping you find your next favorite band before everyone else does.

Send us Fan MailDistraction is easy. Reverence takes effort. Saint Peter Julian Eymard (also spelled Aymard) proves that the effort is worth it because the reward is not a concept, it's a Person. We talk through why the Church remembers him as the Apostle of the Eucharist and how his single-minded love for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament can steady a modern Catholic life that feels noisy, hurried, or uncertain.We walk through Eymard's story, from his early attraction to the tabernacle to the trials that refined his vocation, and the moment his mission came into focus: renew the Church by renewing Eucharistic faith. His founding of the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament in 1856 wasn't a niche project for a few holy specialists. It was a clear invitation to the whole people of God to return to Eucharistic adoration, frequent Communion, and a parish life organized around the Real Presence of Jesus Christ.We also unpack the heart of his teaching: the Mass is a living encounter, not a checklist, and adoration is where gratitude, reparation, and transformation take root. Just as important, Eymard's Eucharistic devotion is inseparable from his Marian devotion, especially his trust in Mary as Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, the mother who leads us to her Eucharistic Son. If you've been longing for a deeper prayer life, a stronger family rhythm, or a more grounded Catholic faith, his witness offers a simple path forward.Subscribe for more stories of the saints, share this with a friend who loves the Eucharist, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Reverence and Awe PT 4 The Factory Youth

If you wish to support our podcast, please follow this link. Thank you! Welcome to a new episode 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 episode, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach Jo Confino talk about finding beauty and reverence in the most ordinary of things. Jo shares his new book, Between Earth and Sky, which documents his time in Mitla, Mexico, and his journey of deep looking and finding beauty in the seemingly empty land. Brother Phap Huu emphasizes the importance of mindfulness, stopping, and being present to see the wonder in everyday life.The hosts further share the concept of consciousness in everything, and the need for reverence in our habits and interactions. The conversation also touches on reciprocity, the importance of community, and the journey of opening one’s heart through listening and acceptance. The episode concludes with a short meditation guided by Brother Phap Huu, to help listeners ground themselves in the present moment and to recognize the beauty in all life.

It is learning to take a pause and feel the present moment. And feeling the present moment is more important than thinking about the present moment, because, when we attune ourselves into our own body, into our senses, what we see, what we smell, what we hear, what we touch gives us an opportunity to be in touch with life in the very here and now.” “We can sit and look at a tree or even look at a rock and find all of life in that.” “This is it.” “We want to know what’s out in space, but we don’t know what is in our inner space.” “Depending on how we show up, our way of being can shift and change our whole mental formation, our whole consciousness of reality.” “Reverence creates a sense of reciprocity because, when we have reverence, we are in conversation with whatever is in front of us. So when we think of things as objects, we’re looking at them as separate from ourselves. But when we have reverence for things, we see that they are talking to us as well as we are talking to them.” “The beauty of Zen is turning a simple moment into a beautiful ritual.” “Reverence is a manifestation of our mental formations.” “I invite everybody to hold their next cup of tea, or coffee, or orange juice, with two hands. It shifts you into a different space. A simple action with two hands, and I’m fully present. Just like when we join our palms and offer a bow, it represents the body and the mind that come together.”

When you marry a covert narcissist, you may not realize that you are being assigned a full-time job: Keep him praised, pleased, protected, admired, and emotionally supplied at all times. The covert narcissist may appear quiet, humble, sensitive, or misunderstood to everyone else. But behind closed doors, he expects you to build your entire life around him. Here are 10 demands commonly placed on the covert narcissist's "cheerleader": 1. Constant attention He expects your time, focus, and immediate interest in everything he says. 2. Total devotion He does not simply want love. He wants to become the center of your world. 3. Endless praise You are expected to celebrate every idea, accomplishment, and opinion—whether it deserves praise or not. 4. Complete submission Disagreement is treated as disrespect. Independence is viewed as rebellion. 5. Affection on demand Your comfort, health, and emotional readiness may be ignored because his wants always come first. 6. Reverence disguised as respect Healthy mutual respect is not enough. He expects admiration without accountability. 7. Immediate attention to his needs You are expected to anticipate what he wants before he even asks. 8. Acceptance of blame Every problem in his life, your marriage, or the family somehow becomes your fault. 9. Agreement with everything he believes He must always be right, while your perspective is dismissed or mocked. 10. A cheerful attitude at all times He can complain, criticize, and rage—but you are expected to smile and remain pleasant. No spouse can meet these impossible standards. Yet the more you try, the more exhausted, confused, and invisible you become. Your feelings, needs, pain, dreams, and opinions slowly disappear because your entire identity has been reduced to supplying the narcissist. That is not mutual love. That is covert narcissistic abuse.

What happens when good intentions run up against God's holy standards? In this message from 2 Samuel 6, Pastor Jason explores the story of David, Uzzah, and the Ark of the Covenant. Looking at both Uzzah's fatal mistake and David's unrestrained praise, we learn why worship must be approached on God's terms rather than our own—and how Jesus Christ makes a way for us to stand boldly before a holy God.(00:00) - - Sermon Introduction: Following the User Manual (04:00) - - Old Testament Context: God's Holiness & The Ark (08:04) - - 2 Samuel 6:1–11: Uzzah and the Ox Cart (12:50) - - The Fear and Reverence of a Holy God (20:50) - - 2 Samuel 6:11–15: Worshiping God His Way (23:49) - - Accessing God Through Christ (29:28) - - 2 Samuel 6:16–23: Michal's Despising & Unapologetic Praise (35:46) - - Application (Romans 12) & Transition to Communion  David: Faith, Failure, and the Pursuit of GodDavid is one of the most well-known figures in Scripture—a shepherd, a warrior, a king, and a man after God's own heart. But his story is not just one of victory; it is also marked by failure, brokenness, and repentance. In this series, we'll walk through the life of David to discover what it means to pursue God in every season—when we are chosen, when we are tested, when we fail, and when we are restored. Series Memory Verse – Psalm 63:1"O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water."Pastor Jason Foreman preaches from the Shakopee Campus.

True and Proper Worship The Factory Youth Romans chapter 12 tells us to worship God with our bodies. The ways we do that are by not conforming to the world around us, offering holy sacrifices, and the renewing of our minds to contribute out of calling rather than feelings or ideas.

As we conclude the month of order in prayer, Rev. Obeng reminds us that God is a Holy King demanding reverence. Effective prayer requires knowing Him, daily dependence, and a forgiving heart. Approach God with humility, recognizing His sovereignty and trusting His protection against the evil one.

The Taiwanese American Arts Council is celebrating its 10th anniversary and third year as an organization in residence on Governors Island. Island Reverence is the theme of this year's residency. I recently sat down to interview three of the artists in residence at TAAC's house 17 on Governors Island: Chia-Che Tsou, Dena Paige-Fischer, and Leon Chuang. Chia-Che has a fascinating story about how he ended up becoming an artist. Dena and Leon both coincidentally grew up with parents who are artists. Dena and Leon's artwork are currently on view at TAAC house 17 on Governors Island until August 2.

To bring order to our prayer lives, we must recognize that God is holy and not our co-equal. Rev. Obeng warns that unholy living nullifies our prayers. Approach God with deep reverence, humility, and a servant's heart, ready to obey His instructions for your breakthrough.

In Reverence and Awe pt2 The Factory Youth The book of Hebrews tells us that we should approach God acceptably. We do that by worshipping Jesus, in praise, through profession.

Many of us live with the quiet assumption that God can handle our obedience, but not our honesty. We keep our real fears hidden away, worrying that voicing our deepest struggles might prove our faith isn't real.In this message from "The Friend of God" series, Pastor Adam Burton unpacks Genesis 15:1–6 to show what happens when we finally step out of our silent management and speak the raw truth to God's face. Discover why God speaks to the burdens you haven't vocalized yet, how to handle long seasons of waiting, and what it truly means to let your faith be counted as righteousness under the stars.

Approaching The Throne with Reverence (Woodlands Centre) Speaker: Matthew Lo Scripture: Revelation 4-5

ReverenceandAwe pt 1 The Factory Youth In the first part of this sermon series we look to the God that we worship. Who is this God?

We open up Exodus 3 and treat the burning bush as a pattern for how God gets our attention, shapes our hearts, and forms us into mature believers. We learn to recognise holy ground in everyday life, respond with reverence, let God rebuild our identity, and accept that real encounters often come with a sending assignment. • Holy ground begins with attention and turning aside from busyness • God's presence often interrupts before it instructs • Reverence as removing what separates us from God, not performing a ritual • Rejecting two extremes: God too distant to approach or God too casual to honour • God's holiness moving toward suffering, revealing compassion and justice •Ccalling and purpose growing from burden and endurance, not hype • Insecurity rising on holy ground as an invitation to a divine exchange • Identity anchored in “I AM” rather than self-validation • Every encounter carrying the possibility of assignment, asking what God does in us and through us 

Ecclesiastes 12 confronts the reality of aging, mortality, and the urgency of turning toward God while there is still time. Solomon uses vivid pictures of the body's decline to remind us that strength, ability, and earthly comforts are temporary. Rather than causing despair, this truth becomes an invitation to repentance, wisdom, and a life centered on God now. Solomon teaches that true wisdom comes through trustworthy instruction, correction, and lived experience. Life is not just something to study but a gift to enjoy through love, gratitude, relationships, and obedience. The final call is simple: fear God, love Him fully, love others deeply, and allow Christ to transform a self-focused life into one marked by generosity, patience, and enduring love.

A @Christadelphians Video:What a thought-provoking and revealing journey this is! In this outstanding expositional study, we (your Christadelphian brothers and sisters) delve into the life of Obed Edom—a often-overlooked character whose story holds wonderful encouragement for every believer. Was he a Levite? Or a Gentile Philistine? The answer changes everything.Brother Roger Lewis masterfully unpacks 1 Chronicles 13, tracing the ark's journey from disaster at Uzzah's breach to divine blessing in Obed Edom's house. We explore how his attitude of reverence, not mere ceremony, drew Yahweh's favour. Most insightful of all, we see how this Gentile “Gittite” became a trusted porter before the ark—and how his family grew to supply 62 of the 93 temple gatekeepers! This isn't just history; it's a powerful prophecy of Gentiles being grafted into Israel's hope (Amos 9, Acts 15).

If we are not careful, it can be easy to misrepresent God. So often we hear people proclaim that God is a God of anger and wrath, a God who demands that we fear Him. While God does absolutely and ultimately demand that all will eventually honor and reverence Him, we need to be able to grasp what He requires of humanity now. The Bible, if carefully understood, supplies these answers. By examining what “fear of the Lord” looks like first in the Old Testament and then in the New, we can receive a clear picture of what He demands. What does this picture show us? It reveals His power, His authority and His overwhelming benevolence. The Old Testament lays the foundation for understanding the fear of the Lord. The Hebrew words for fear carry both negative and positive meanings ranging from terror to deep reverence. Israel's experience was often physical and immediate, while Christians today apply these principles spiritually. This distinction helps us to appreciate why “fear” in Scripture can sometimes sound intimidating yet ultimately points toward a relationship grounded in respect and devotion. Reverence for God brings blessing. Passages from Psalms and Proverbs show that fearing the Lord leads to confidence, instruction, protection and even joy. For example, Proverbs describes the fear of the Lord as “a fountain of life,” offering refuge and strength. This kind of fear is not about shrinking back, but about recognizing God's greatness and drawing closer to Him because of it. Reverence for God brings guidance. A deeply personal example of this is Rick's experience of how reverence for God sustained him through the trauma of his daughter's assault. He describes relying on prayer and scriptural principles when he didn't know what to do, illustrating how reverence can anchor believers during life's most overwhelming moments. The New Testament verifies that reverence remains essential for Christians. While the Greek word phobéō can mean fright, it also carries the meaning of awe and respect. The apostles encourage believers to perfect holiness in the fear of God, to honor all people and to avoid any ungodly spirit of cowardice. The picture is clear: ‘Fearing the Lord’ means placing Him in His rightful position—above all things—and allowing that reverence to shape our confidence, choices and character.  Key Takeaways The ‘fear of the Lord’ in Scripture primarily means reverence, awe and deep respect, not terror. Old Testament examples show that reverence brings instruction, protection, confidence and blessing. True ‘fear’ of God draws us toward Him, not away from Him. The New Testament continues this theme, urging Christians to perfect holiness in reverence. God has not given Christians a spirit of fearfulness or cowardice. Reverence becomes especially powerful during personal trials, grounding us in God's presence and guidance.

When you hear the word enthusiasm, what comes to mind? Most of us think of energy, excitement, or passion. But the word originally meant something entirely different. Enthusiasm comes from the Greek words en theos — "God within."In this final episode of the Kingdom Spiritual Intelligence series, we're exploring what it means to stay connected to the source rather than striving to create more energy on our own. We'll talk about reverence, abiding, and why the fire often fades, not because we stop loving God, but because familiarity quietly replaces awe. If you've felt like you're pushing harder than you should have to, this conversation may help you discover whether it's time to stop striving and reconnect with the One who sustains the fire.SOMETHING IS COMING IN JULY: Clear the Static is a free 4-week challenge starting July 6. It is for women who are ready to clear the daily noise and lead from what God is actually saying. Join us here: https://vibrant-living.myflodesk.com/clearthestatic https://www.ivibrantliving.com/

Pastor: Daniel BunnSeries: Ephesians Week 7 Ephesians 3:14–21 | Knowing the Love That Surpasses Knowledge Scripture: Ephesians 3:14–21 In this message from our Ephesians series, we reflect on Paul's prayer that believers would be strengthened by the Spirit, that Christ would dwell in their hearts through faith, and that they would come to know the love of Christ—a love so wide, long, high, and deep that it surpasses knowledge. Paul begins by bowing his knees before the Father, a posture of reverence, humility, and surrender. From that place of awe, he prays not simply that the church would know facts about Christ, but that they would be rooted and grounded in His love. This kind of knowing is more than information; it is the deep, lived knowledge that comes through abiding nearness, shared life, and ongoing communion with God. The sermon explores the difference between knowing about something and truly experiencing it—like understanding the physics of riding a bike versus actually riding one, or the wordless understanding that forms through years of relationship. In the same way, Paul prays that believers would encounter Christ's love so deeply that they recognize it can never be mastered or exhausted. As we consider the vastness of creation—from the immensity of galaxies to the intricacy of the human body—we are reminded that God is greater still. And this infinite God has loved us forever. The proper response is not pride or control, but wonder, humility, worship, and prayer. Key themes: Reverence and humility before God Christ dwelling at the center of our lives The difference between knowing about God and knowing God The immeasurable dimensions of Christ's love Being rooted and grounded in love through the Spirit Reflection question: Where might God be inviting you to move beyond knowing about His love and into a deeper experience of being loved by Him? Listen and reflect with us as we continue through Paul's letter to the Ephesians.

In this episode, we interview Joshua's sister, Nancy Charles, who also serves as Eternal Christendom's Director of Operations. She was miraculously converted to the Catholic Faith out of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle, drug abuse, and multiple suicide attempts.Now she is exposing the lies about so-called "LGBTQ+ Catholics," and explains the Catholic Church's answer to these lies: the call to find our FULL identity not in our temptations and sins, but in Christ.See our past episode about Nancy's miraculous conversion: https://youtu.be/hb42E76TmgI?si=NBvQOlLc7fe7pw5aVISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.

Pastor Jake teaches through 1 Samuel, explaining the necessity of reverence for God in our hearts and in our families. 

God's Word shows fathers exactly what children must learn. Being the dad God wants you to be is a tough job, but Scripture provides a clear roadmap for training the next generation. God gives timeless principles for spiritual leadership that apply to every home, every generation, and every believer responsible for influence. These are foundational truths that shape how children understand God, handle fear, make decisions, and develop spiritual stability.Key Takeaways:• Courage over fear — Trust God instead of being controlled by circumstances • Love for God — Develop personal devotion and spiritual motivation • Reverence for God — Respect His authority through His Word • Obedience in decisions — Choose God's way and accept consequences⬇Download Transcript: https://rhem.pub/1087-transcript

The tributes to Gordon Wood have been pouring in, and as promised, we spend this episode with him and his peerless body of work.  Professor Steven Calabresi, Gordon's neighbor, friend, and colleague, joins us, and how appropriate that is, as Steve and Akhil produced a tribute weekend at Yale Law School that reviewed and celebrated his lifetime of work.  Now we remember the man, the teacher, and most of all, the towering scholar, as we review some of his most important ideas, his methods, and his inspiration for so many who have read, and who will read, the greatest books ever written about the American founding period.  A giant has been lost, but his memory will be a blessing for many generations to come.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.

How much of our worth do we tie to how others see us?Today's episode invites us to reflect on the difference between outward image and a heart rooted in reverence for God. As we explore Proverbs 31:30, we'll unpack why charm and beauty might catch the world's attention but true praise belongs to those who honor God deeply, no matter who we are. Together, we'll consider the pressures of appearance and achievement in today's culture and discover how focusing on the condition of our hearts truly transforms our lives.Let's come together in prayer and devotion, trusting God to shape our hearts and remind us of what genuinely matters.Tap HERE to send us a text!

He was ordained a half-century ago. He remembers when reverence was expected, when the tabernacle was central, when Catholics knew what they believed and why. Then came the changes, and everything flipped.Father Richard Perricone joins John-Henry Westen to chronicle the transformation that has left the Church unrecognizable. Reverence became taboo. The sacred became optional. The priesthood became confused. And the laity, trained for generations to trust their shepherds, were suddenly told that the faith they had received could be rewritten, reimagined, or simply abandoned.Perricone does not blame Vatican II alone. He blames what came after: the systematic dismantling of Catholic identity by men who saw tradition as an obstacle and ambiguity as a virtue. The loss of the Latin Mass. The sidelining of the tabernacle. The confusion over confession. The collapse of religious orders. The silence of bishops who should have spoken.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!
