When Being Human Feels Heavy: Fragility, Faith, and Jesus Saving Peter Jeremy welcomes newcomers, highlights upcoming church activities and giving options, and introduces a new series on what it means to be human. He explains “human” as “dirt man,” emphasizing both human creativity and human fragility, and describes how adulthood and life pressures expose limits, anxiety, disappointment, and the temptation to compensate and pretend through image management. Citing Genesis 2 and a Rich Mullins lyric, he argues people are not as strong or in control as they think and were not designed to carry life alone. He then teaches from Matthew 14: after John the Baptist's murder and the feeding of the 5,000, the disciples face a storm; Peter walks on water but sinks when he focuses on the wind, cries “Lord, save me,” and Jesus immediately rescues him. The message invites honesty about where people are “sinking,” remembering God's repeated help, and relying on Jesus rather than pretending. 00:00 Welcome and Announcements 00:39 New Series Setup 01:08 Humans From Dust 02:18 Adulting and Fragility 08:50 Pressure and Pretending 14:22 Matthew 14 Overview 17:13 Storm on the Water 19:27 Peter Steps Out 21:40 Sinking and Crying Out 27:36 Jesus Grabs Him 29:23 Why Did You Doubt 33:08 Where Are You Sinking 34:56 Prayer and Closing

How Does the Church Sings Through Suffering and Why Do the Songs Matter?   Grammy Award nominee and Dove Award winner Matt Maher joins the Good Faith podcast for a conversation about the power of songs and church music to tell the truth about suffering. Reflecting on protest, justice, prophetic art, ecumenism, and even Rich Mullins, Maher explores how the church can hold lament and praise together while still pointing people to the hope and holiness of God. Drawing on Psalm 22 and Jesus' cry of abandonment on the cross, he argues that the church, like Jesus, must sing honestly about pain and abandonment without losing sight of the worship and honor God deserves.   *This episode was recorded live at the Illuminate Arts + Faith Conference   00:00:00  - Tease: The Duality of Abandonment and Praise 00:01:00 - Introduction from Curtis Chang 05:31 - Conversion and the Impact of Catholic Liturgy on His Faith 08:13 - Theology in Songwriting and Collaboration 09:57- Can Ecumenism Expand Your Perspective? 13:06 - John 17 and Praying for Church Unity  14:35 - Prophetic Calling Comforts the Afflicted and Challenges the Comfortable 16:38 - Protest Themes and the Burden of Truth 20:30 - Holding Space for Both Praise and Lament 21:55 - Christian Justice Movements and Prophetic Action 24:02 - The After Party Album and Amos's Call to Justice 24:11 - That He Will Overcome (musical insert) 26:29 - The Toppling of Empire Lyrics as Inspired by Dr. Mika Edmonson 29:04 - The Neurological and Physical Impact of Music on Memory and Community 34:03 - Personal Storytelling and Lament To Work Out Hard Things 40:00 - Rich Mullins' Influence and Legacy 41:24 - What Is The Song the Church Needs Now, In These Crazy Times? 43:48 - A Warning From Nazi Germany Against Ignoring Suffering   Take the Listener Survey Sign up for The After Party Sign up for The Good List   Mentioned In This Episode: The Nicene Creed and the History of the Council of Nicaea Matt Maher's Echoes album (Spotify) Matt Maher's Your Grace Is Enough Matt Maher's The Stories I Tell Myself Matt Maher's The Stories I Tell Myself (Acoustic video) Matt Maher, DOE, Dee Wilson, & The Porter's Gate's That We Might Overcome Listen to the album The Kingdom of Jesus: Songs For The After Party Rich Mullins' Canticle of The Plains (full album on Youtube) Rich Mullins' The Joy of Jesus (feat.

In this unforgettable episode of Simple Faith, host Rusty George sits down with worship leader and storyteller Justin Howard for a wide-ranging, deeply human conversation that moves from UFC cages to church pews—and everywhere in between.Justin opens up about his surprising past as a mixed martial arts fighter, dramatic weight loss journey, and growing up as a pastor's kid who almost walked away from faith altogether. Along the way, he shares how music—across every genre imaginable—became a sacred language that shaped his calling, from old hymns and gospel roots to James Taylor, George Jones, Rich Mullins, and beyond.The conversation weaves laughter, nostalgia, and profound moments of vulnerability, including a powerful story of hearing God's voice in the most unexpected place: a UFC gym. Together, Rusty and Justin explore what worship really is, how God meets us through art and emotion, and why faith isn't confined to a stage, a song, or a Sunday service.

The Psalm talks about a way - a path - to lead a happy or blessed life. Let's start by talking a little bit about a path - the movement toward living a blessed life. We'll sum it up like this: living life with the divine is a constant oscillation between emptying yourself and allowing yourself to be filled again. Emptying yourself - when you hear the definitions of the word "sinner" and the word "mockers," do they bring to mind any particular examples in current times? Maybe some people in powerful positions? Empty yourself of yourself. Empty yourself of everyone else's will for your life - including your own - in favor of the will of the divine. Allowing yourself to be filled. Here we reach a discussion about the "law" of God - the torah. Scripture. When you hear "quiet time," it probably brings an image of a specific practice for you, or maybe something you thought you were supposed to be doing a certain way. Yeah, that's probably not what the Psalmist meant. Scripture wasn't meant to be read alone at 5 a.m. with a cup of coffee. It was meant to be read (and in the ancient world it was only read) in community. This is one of the ways we allow ourselves to be filled. So in our effort to connect to the divine, we have two main resources that we pull from all the time. First there's the book of scripture, which we all think of immediately. But then there's also another resource, one that I won't spoil here, but you can think about it with us as you listen. The late great Rich Mullins has a great song about it. We're going to read those lyrics together and think about them in that context. Empty. Filled. To be emptied again - trees are full of grace bearing fruit for the benefit of others. Trees don't exist for themselves - they only exist to bless (give life) to creation. That's who we become. Speaker: Aaron Vis Scripture: Psalm 1:1-6 http://bible.com/events/49512947

Ministry isn't a job title—it's a way of life. In this powerful Thursday episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose unpack what it means for families to embrace ministry as both a calling and a legacy. Whether you're a family of pastors, faithful volunteers, or simply parents trying to serve Jesus through everyday moments, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to let your family's light shine brightly in the world.  Through heartfelt stories—from Rich Mullins' radical generosity to the everyday acts of preschool volunteering and neighborhood service—Rachael and Natalie illustrate that ministry can happen anywhere: around the kitchen table, in the car, at a church workday, or even in the checkout line. You'll be reminded that a Kingdom impact doesn't require a pulpit, just a posture of obedience.  You'll also hear from AHG Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay in a special Raising Godly Girls Minute that paints a picture of young girls ministering to hospital patients through simple, Spirit-led acts of compassion. It's a moving reminder that no one is too young—or too ordinary—to be used by God.  This episode dives into two vital heart postures every family can adopt: a willingness to let God multiply their influence and a readiness to make sacrifices for His Kingdom. Whether you're serving in a formal church role or quietly discipling your daughter at home, your life of faithfulness can ripple into eternity.  Scriptures Referenced:  Matthew 25:34–40 – “Whatever you did for the least of these…you did for Me.”  Proverbs 19:21 – “Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.”  Acts 1:8 – “You will be My witnesses…to the ends of the earth.”  Deuteronomy 7:9 – “He is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations…”  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.   To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

We have one of my favorite examples of faith today, Mary.  I heard Rich Mullins say once in an interview, “It's not that Catholics think too much of Mary, it's that we Protestants don't think enough of Mary.”  Mary is a perfect example of faith. God comes and upends her world. And what does she say?  Let it be unto me, according to thy word. She trusts in God, even when it is not the path she had planned. She trusted in God more than any of her plans. She had faith.  She is an example.

Send us a textIt is truly hard to believe that we are approaching the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing. As many of you are well aware at this point, Pastor Harris, was the pastor of First United Methodist Church, which is situated directly east of the OKC bombing site.  Pastor Harris was at the church that day, and we have shared his story both in audio podcast as well as video on our YouTube channel.  However, in this episode we will hear from Kris Skinner, a cherished family friend and a former employee of First Church that was there meeting with Pastor Harris at the moment the bomb went off on that day that for many has been frozen in time.As a reminder, we have published several OKC Bombing related episodes over the life of this podcast. Four that I will mention specifically. There is episode 50 which features the sermon Pastor Harris delivered April 16th 1995, just three days before the bombing, this would be the last sermon that would be delivered in that 100 year old sanctuary. In episode 51 we hear from Pastor Harris as he tells his story of the day of the bombing. In episode 52 we feature an interview we had with OKC Bombing Survivor, Arlene Blanchard who was in the Murrah Building when the bomb went off. Arlene had attended “Loves & Fishes”, a lunch Bible Study that First Church facilitated and Pastor Harris taught for many years. In this discussion with Arlene, she reveals one word that Pastor Harris taught on that gave her the strength to persevere. And finally, in episode #100 we feature the story of a surprise concert that Rich Mullins himself gifted the people of First United Methodist Church.Support the show

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.”~Revelation 3:21 “Take my love; my Lord, I pourat thy feet its treasure store.Take myself, and I will beever, only, all for thee,ever, only, all for thee.”~“Take My Life And Let it Be” by Frances Ridley Havergal, 1874 “Well, sometimes my life just don't make sense at allWhen the mountains look so bigAnd my faith just seems so small So hold me, Jesus, ‘cause I'm shaking like a leafYou have been King of my gloryWon't you be my Prince of Peace?”~“Hold Me Jesus” by Rich Mullins, 1993 “But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.”~Romans 8:37SERMON PASSAGEHebrews 3:1-19 (ESV) 1 Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, 2 who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house. 3 For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses—as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. 4 (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.) 5 Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, 6 but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope. 7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says,  “Today, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion,      on the day of testing in the wilderness, 9 where your fathers put me to the test       and saw my works for forty years. 10 Therefore I was provoked with that generation,  and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;   they have not known my ways.' 11 As I swore in my wrath,   ‘They shall not enter my rest.'” 12 Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. 13 But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. 15 As it is said,  “Today, if you hear his voice,   do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”16 For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? 17 And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

In this conversation, Russ Ramsey talks about the power of art, beauty, and storytelling - and how they can help us make sense of the brokenness in our world. Russ is the author of books like "Rembrandt is in the Wind" and "Van Gogh Has a Broken Heart," where he dives into the lives and works of these iconic artists. And what he uncovers is so much more than just the paintings themselves. It's about the human experience - the joy, the suffering, the hope that these artists poured into their art. We talk about how engaging with beauty and art, can actually be a window into understanding the glory of God. And how even in the midst of tragedy and heartbreak, art can help us find language for our own struggles and emotions. Russ also shares some incredible stories behind famous works of art - like the Mona Lisa and why it became so famous. Spoiler alert: it's not because of the painting itself! So get ready for a rich, thought-provoking conversation about the intersection of faith, art, and the human experience. Russ has so much wisdom to share, so join us. Russ Ramsey grew up in the wheatfields of Indiana. He studied at Taylor University and Covenant Theological Seminary (MDiv, ThM) before becoming a pastor. He and his family live in Franklin, Tennessee. Russ is the author of Van Gogh has a Broken Heart: What Art Teaches Us About the Wonder and Struggle of Being Alive (Zondervan 2024) and Rembrandt is in the Wind: Learning to Love Art through the Eyes of Faith (Zondervan, 2022).Russ' Book:Van Gogh Has a Broken HeartRuss' Recommendation:Mary OliverJoin Our Patreon for Early Access and More: PatreonConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

What are we doing with what we've been given for the Kingdom? Let's take some time to reflect on that together. Tune in this Sunday to explore this deeper with Kent. EASY TO GIVE at Harmony, text any amount to (859) 459-0316 to get started (or give online @ my.harmonychurch.cc/give). Get the fill in the blank bulletins my.harmonychurch.cc/bulletins. Interview with Staff What jobs have you held outside of ministry if any? What is the thing you hope for the people who serve in your ministry? What is one helpful thing you wish people knew about what goes on behind the scenes in ministry? Why do you do this? What in the world are you thinking - you could make more money in the business world, you could get insurance paid for you, you could be building up retirement. So, why do ministry? What was it that put the "why" in you? OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Give it up for our team!  Thank you guys for all you do for our church! You know, Ministry is a weird job. I've had calls at 2 in the morning from a kid whose mom just got thrown through a window and he needed me to talk him down from killing his stepdad.  I've woken up to a call to come over to someone's house and counsel them in the most dire of situations. I have sat by the bed of the dying and cared for them and met with countless couples who are considering throwing in the towel on their marriage.  On top of that we have daily concern for the spiritual life of those God has stewarded us with, even when they don't always personally care or think about it themselves. My job specifically I have to be able to lead with the business acumen of a CEO, be available for one-on-one counseling, be able to study like a scholar or professor, be able to get up and speak like a motivational speaker, be a manager and lead meetings, be humble, have a character that matters, be spiritually full to give to others who are spiritually hungry, be able to read a spreadsheet and talk to people who have never seen a spreadsheet. As a pastor, there are very few people you can actually be yourself with - most people feel like they can bear that burden, but the moment they find out their pastor struggles, they walk away.  It's extremely lonely. Why do we do it? Why would anyone choose ministry? ILLUSTRATION: Literally a few years back, before coming to Harmony, my brother called me and told me he was bummed because his Christmas bonus was going to be less that year. When he told me what the bonus would be, it hit me that his bonus was more than my entire salary for the year. Oof, that's tough… So, why would we do this? Why choose it? I chose this because I want to take as many people as I possibly can with me. b I want to see as many people as I can, find Jesus, and become His disciples.  Reminds me of the parable of the talents, you know the parable right? A landowner gives a few of his servants bags of gold, one gets 5, one gets 3, and one gets one bag of gold.  When the master comes back he finds out the guys that got 5 & 3 bags had invested it and doubled their money, but the other guy took his one bag and buried it.  The master berates him for just burying his gold instead of putting it to work for him.   Look, at the end of your life when you stand before Jesus, he's not going to ask you what cars you owned, or how big your house was. He's not going to ask how many subscribers you had to your YouTube channel or TickTock or how many days of vacation you didn't use. He's going to ask you one question, “What did you do with what you had for the Kingdom” You don't need to do what I do or Amber does. What you need to do is look at what you've been given and use it for the Kingdom. CLOSING ILLUSTRATION: My favorite musician of all time was Rich Mullins - he was a Christian artist in the 90s who died tragically.  Rich had a passion for Native Americans and decided at some point to step away from his music career to be a missionary in New Mexico to the Navajo Indians. Rich tried it but was really struggling, it wasn't going like he thought it would.  He called his uncle and was talking to him and his uncle said, “Rich, you're not a very good missionary, but you are really good at making money.  Why aren't you making money and giving it to those who are good at being missionaries”  The reason I like Rich Mullins is not because he was a great musician, although he has some rich lyrics.  The reason I like him is because he decided he would be only be paid the average working man's salary and gave the rest of his money away.  Rich realized his job was to take as many with him as he could - not to hoard it all.  What are you good at you could use for the Kingdom? Are you good with kids? We need people in our kids ministry and student ministry. Are you someone people want to be around? Invite them to church with you. Are you good at making money? Redirect that to the Kingdom. You know, one of the biggest problems I think in Christianity is we professionalized it. Ephesians 4:11-13 11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Look, Jesus didn't give me or our staff to do the ministry by ourselves b He gave us -> to equip you -> to do the works of service Today, I want to call you to something practical - we have this board out in the lobby that shows the holes in ministry that need to be filled.  We want you to pray and then go and fill those spots, to find your why, and to give it all for the Kingdom.

Send us a Text Message.Today's Podcast episode is from a sermon I gave recently inspired by some reflections on the lives of multiple Christian Music artists and influencers. What would the Gospel be like without deliverance ministry? We have already seen many negative examples of such a "gospel." How could the lives of people like Brennan Manning and Rich Mullins end better if they had received the Ministry of Deliverance? What is at stake for today's Christian influencers if they do not receive the full ministry Jesus inaugurated?❤️ SHOW YOUR SUPPORT - LINKS BELOW...➡️ DONATE ➡️  Join our team!https://www.givesendgo.com/karlgesslerfamilybandhttps://www.patreon.com/karlgesslerSocial Media➡️Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089357625739➡️Telegram - https://t.me/FaithoftheFathers➡️Truth Social - https://truthsocial.com/@UCLOvq6O4aIXLrkKxwXkq3uA ➡️Gab - https://gab.com/KarlGesslerSupport the Show.

We are back T&J fam! And y'all are in for a treat. We explain the tension we tried to create during the last show and begin identifying who Jesus and the trinity are this week. We go back to the beginning … almost. This week we look at the Arian Controversy that led to the Council of Nicea and ultimately the Nicean Creed, which we still use today (Shout out Rich Mullins and Third Day). We look at the biblical information about the Godhead and begin to paint the picture of our faith. We hope you enjoy!

Welcome to an intriguing episode which starts with a journey through the unusual home of Ray Comfort as he, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar share thoughts on materialism, generosity, and so much more. Ray is known for some eccentric home adventures, which includes turning on the TV with a fishing tackle, developing a unique watering system for his backyard birds, and planning to wallpaper his house with the Gospel of John. These quirky tales promise an engaging and thought-provoking listen.Diving deeper, Ray and the guys venture into the complex realm of materialism and their attempts to unshackle themselves from the chains of covetousness which were so strong and prevalent while they were still unsaved. Moreover, Ray and E.Z. tease their fellow podcasters, Oscar and Mark, about their potential materialistic tendencies, adding a dash of humor to a serious conversation.Proceeding further into the discussion, the guys touch upon topics like contentment vs. love of money, which the Bible tells us is the root of all evil. Insight is borrowed from individuals like Jim Carrey and Rich Mullins to better understand how to be liberated from materialism.The discussion continues as they examine materialism's influence on individuals' lives and the importance of generosity. Listeners are invited to scrutinize how social media is designed to induce worldly longing, creating envy in online followers. This conversation enables each of us to appreciate the blessings believers receive and the significance of not placing our trust in uncertain riches. Love shown through generosity is underscored as a key solution to materialism, prompting us to utilize our possessions for giving and spreading kindness. The guys reflect on the challenges faced by the rich young ruler and how it's crucial to be ready to do what is right because it is right. Mark's reminder that we must drop everything to embrace Jesus and John Piper's wisdom about the futility of material comforts beautifully wraps up this enlightening conversation.In conclusion, this episode offers a blend of humor, wisdom, and profound insights that can potentially alter the way we view life. It urges us to reflect on our actions, desires, and the driving forces behind them. So let's focus on what truly matters and cultivate a lifestyle driven by love, generosity, and contentment.Thanks for listening!

 Influential pastor, author, and apologist, Tim Keller, passed away last week. We reflect on Keller's ministry and wonder who is filling the shoes of the Christian giants we've lost. A new book about poverty says that the U.S. spends more on welfare than any other country except France, but the majority goes to help the wealthy and middle-class rather than the poor. Why aren't we doing more to end poverty, and is our view of the Bible to blame? Then, it's been 25 years since Rich Mullins died. Skye talks to Mullins' friend James Bryan Smith about the songwriter's inspiring life and legacy. Plus, Matthew Soerens shares some good news from the Southern border.   Patreon Bonus:  Holy Post Office - What do you do when the perfect church doesn't exist?
