QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“We may feel tempted to underestimate the horrors of the Cross, because to recognize them is to admit that our monstrous evil demanded a price so horrific. To make light of our sin is to make light of Christ's cross.”~Randy Alcorn, author “We may take comfort about our souls, if we know anything of an inward fight and conflict. It is the invariable companion of genuine Christian holiness... Do we find in our heart of hearts a spiritual struggle? Do we feel anything of the flesh warring against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh, so that we cannot do the things we would? Are we conscious of two principles within us, contending for the master? Do we feel anything of war in our inward man? Well, let us thank God for it! It is a good sign. It is strongly probable evidence of the great work of sanctification.”~J.C. Ryle (1816-1900), English pastor, writer, and Anglican bishop of Liverpool “We need to continue to hear the gospel every day of our Christian lives. Only a continuous reminder of the gospel of God's grace through Christ will keep us from falling into good-day—bad-day thinking.”~Jerry Bridges, author, speaker, and college minister “When Satan tempts me to despairAnd tells me of the guilt withinUpward I look and see Him thereWho made an end to all my sin.”~“Before the Throne of God Above” by Charitie Lees Bancroft & Vikki CookSERMON PASSAGEHebrews 10:26-39 (ESV) 26 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.” 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.32 But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings, 33 sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated. 34 For you had compassion on those in prison, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one. 35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. 37 For,     “Yet a little while,  and the coming one will come and will not delay;     38 but my righteous one shall live by faith,  and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.” 39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.

'He did not get up to talk about his party, his cause, his interest or his office', wrote J. C. Ryle of George Whitefield. 'He was perpetually telling you about your sins, your heart, Jesus Christ, the Holy Ghost, the absolute need of repentance, faith, and holiness, in the way that the Bible presents these mighty subjects.'  This week we turn our attention to a man who, by God's grace, became a means in the salvation of thousands of souls in the eighteenth century.    Featured Resources: – David Campbell, 'George Whitefield: The Power of the Gospel', Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 699 (December 2021). – Bob Thomas (collator, introduction), 'Encouragement from the Eighteenth Century: Extracts from Arnold Dallimore's Biography of George Whitefield', Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 737 (February 2025).   Resources on Whitefield: Dallimore, Arnhold, George Whitefield: The Life and Times of the Great Evangelist of the 18th Century Revival (2 volumes, clothbound, 1232 pages, also available as single volumes) Philip, Robert, The Life and Times of George Whitefield (paperback, 588 pages) Vandoodewaard, Rebecca, The Man Who Preached Outside (board book) Select Sermons of George Whitefield, With an Account of His Life by J.

As J.C. Ryle notes, one of the most difficult challenges that believers face is when others fail them. It can lead us to be angry, disillusioned and bitter. In Mark 14:43-52, we see Jesus experiencing the failure of his disciples: one of them betrays him, and the others desert him. As we look at his reaction, we see a Savior who understands what we experience, yet one who is able to "overcome evil with good" (Romans 12:21, ESV).June 1, 2025Helpful resources that shaped and informed this sermon: Let's Study Mark by Sinclair Ferguson, The Gospel of Mark by R.T.

This week we begin a new series with a new guest, Misty Snyder. Misty is the coauthor of Behold Your God: Seeking Him Early and the wife of Dr. John Snyder. For help in this series, we are looking to Charles Spurgeon and J. C. Ryle. Spurgeon's little work, Feed My Lambs, was written for Christian parents and Sunday School teachers. This week, we focus on the opening section where Spurgeon hones in on what it means to feed the little ones. This feeding means that we must speak in a way that children can understand. It doesn't mean simply replacing big words with small words. But it means defining and communicating in a way they can follow and grasp. Last in the series, we will look at a sermon preached by J. C. Ryle, a contemporary of Charles Spurgeon.

In Mark 14:32-42, we see Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane as he anticipates going to the cross: he staggers at what is coming, yet still submits willingly to His Father's plan. Meanwhile, the disciples sleep, missing an opportunity to pray. This passage shows us that Jesus gets the depths of our suffering, while also giving us an example of how to pray in difficult times.May 25, 2025 Helpful resources that shaped and informed this sermon: Let's Study Mark by Sinclair Ferguson, The Gospel of Mark by R.T.

Mark 14:26-31 is all about rejection. Jesus predicts that all of his disciples will desert him, and one will deny him three times. We don't often respond to rejection well, but Jesus is different. He willingly invested in these disciples knowing full well what they would do to him in the end, and he invites them back to himself after they reject him.

Mark 14:12-21 has to do with Jesus and his disciples celebrating the Passover. In the context of this meal, we find that Jesus remarkably provides a place for his disciples to meet: a reminder that the God who calls us to gather as believers will also provide the gathering place. And he also makes a shocking prediction about one who will betray him: a reminder that proximity to Jesus is no guarantee that someone belongs to Jesus.

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: A great hospital! Subtitle: Puritan Devotional Speaker: J. C. Ryle Broadcaster: Grace Audio Treasures Event: Devotional Date: 3/29/2025 Bible: Luke 5:31-32; Hebrews 4:15 Length: 2 min.

A great hospitalJ.C. Ryle, "The Gospel of Mark" 1857Mark 14:27, "All of you will desert Me!" Jesus told them. We see in this verse, how well our Lord knew the weakness and infirmities of His disciples. He tells them plainly what they were going to do, "All of you will desert Me!" Let us take comfort in the thought that the Lord Jesus does not cast off His believing people because of failures and imperfections. He knows exactly what they are. He takes them, as the husband takes the wife, with all their blemishes and defects; and once joined to Him by faith, He will never leave them. He is a merciful and compassionate Savior. It is His glory to pass over the transgressions of His people, and to cover their many sins. He knew what they were before conversion:   wicked, guilty, and defiled--yet He loved them. He knows what they will be after conversion:  weak, erring, and frail--yet He loves them. He has undertaken to save them, notwithstanding all their deficiencies and failings. And what He has undertaken, He will perform.Let us learn to pass a charitable judgment on the conduct of professing believers. Let us not set them down in a low place, and say they have no grace--because we see much weakness and sin in them. Let us remember that our Master in Heaven bears with their infirmities, and let us try to bear with them too. The Church of Christ is little better than a great hospital. We ourselves are all, more or less, weak. We all daily need the skillful treatment of the heavenly Physician. There will be no 'complete cures' until the resurrection day. "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but s

Dr. Jared Longshore, Associate Pastor at Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, and the Dean of New St. Andrews College, explores the pressing issues facing young Christian men in today's society. In this discussion, he highlights the detrimental effects of modern cultural influences on masculinity and the importance of adhering to timeless standards of Christian virtue, particularly through the lens of J.C. Ryle's writings. Longshore emphasizes the necessity for young men to cultivate a deep sense of personal accountability and moral integrity, rather than succumbing to the distractions and pitfalls prevalent in contemporary society. He advocates for a return to foundational practices that promote holiness and responsible manhood, echoing Ryle's call for men to engage in the ongoing battle for righteousness. Takeaways: Dr. Longshore emphasizes the necessity for young men to engage in meaningful work and avoid the distractions of online communities, which can lead to isolation and ineffectiveness. He discusses the timeless relevance of J.C. Ryle's writings, particularly 'Holiness' and 'Thoughts for Young Men', as essential resources for understanding Christian masculinity. The conversation highlights the importance of community and accountability in fostering virtuous behavior among young men in today's society. Longshore advocates for a proactive approach to masculinity, urging young men to take responsibility for their lives and families, rather than blaming external factors for their circumstances.

In the conclusion to Mark 13, Jesus seems to be talking about his return. He makes it very clear that while he will return, no one but the Father knows the date on which that will happen. He also instructs believers how to live in the interim: they are to stay awake, living in such a way so as to be ready for that return.March 23, 2025Helpful resources that shaped and informed this sermon: Let's Study Mark by Sinclair Ferguson, The Gospel of Mark by R.T.

Today, we delve into the profound teachings of J.C. Ryle as he shares the importance of seeking Jesus Christ early in life. Drawing from Proverbs 8:17, Ryle emphasizes that those who love the Lord and seek Him earnestly will find joy and fulfillment in their souls.Ryle addresses children directly, urging them to recognize the immense value of being loved by Jesus Christ, the King of kings. He paints a vivid picture of the blessings that come from this divine love, including forgiveness, guidance, and a promised home in heaven. As Ryle encourages the young listeners to reflect on their own hearts, he provides clear signs of true love for Christ—believing His words and striving to please Him through obedience.The sermon highlights ways we seek Jesus: through diligent reading of the Bible, attending church, and engaging in heartfelt prayer. Ryle reassures listeners that seeking the Lord is not only safe but also the happiest and easiest path to take. He passionately reminds us that beginning this journey early can lead to a life filled with joy and purpose, while also preparing us for the inevitable day of judgment.Join us as we reflect on Ryle's timeless message and encourage a new generation to seek the Lord while He may be found, embracing the love that brings true happiness.Support our mission:▪️ Buy Me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/wanderingpilgrims▪️ Patreon: patreon.com/TheWanderingPilgrims▪️ Shop: teespring.com/stores/the-wandering-pilgrims▪️ Our Website: www.thewanderingpilgrims.comConnect with us on social media for more inspiring content:▪️ Instagram: instagram.com/thewanderingpilgrims▪️ Facebook: facebook.com/The-Wandering-Pilgrims▪️ YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCbvMuDo9dpaQ0Bu71lRRiQw▪️ Twitter: @WanderPilgrims▪️ Truth Social: @wanderingpilgrims

In Mark 13:14-31, Jesus continues answering the disciples' question of when the Temple in Jerusalem is going to be destroyed and what sign will precede it. This passage is a difficult one, and one about which Jesus-loving, Bible-believing Christians disagree: some believe he is talking about events in and around AD70, and others believe he is talking about events at the end of the world. Though challenging, learning how to work through difficult passages is important, as it teaches us how to know our own minds and live in unity with other believers who disagree, as Paul teaches in Romans 14.March 9, 2025Helpful resources that shaped and informed this sermon: Let's Study Mark by Sinclair Ferguson, The Gospel of Mark by R.T.

In Mark 13:1-13, Jesus tells his disciples that the Temple in Jerusalem is going to be destroyed. They naturally have questions: when is this going to happen? And what sign will precede it? Jesus goes on to tell them which signs to not overreact to, while also warning them to be prepared for persecution.

The topic of money & giving can be a loaded one. Throughout history, there have been many examples of religious leaders abusing their authority for financial gain. However, Jesus does talk money in passages such as Mark 12:41-44. In this sermon, we'll explore the shining example of a poor widow and how much she gave.

Hypocrisy is one of the biggest turn-offs to Christianity. When Christians and Christian leaders behave badly, it can make people wonder whether or not Jesus is worth following. Does the Bible have anything to say about this topic? In Mark 12:35-40, Jesus addresses the wrong teaching and behavior of some of the religious leaders of his day, condemning their hypocrisy, and showing himself to be the leader our hearts desire.

1 Peter 1:13-16 J. C. Ryle was the 1st Anglican Bishop of Liverpool.  In his classic book titled, “Holiness”, he wrote the words.  “He who supposes that Jesus Christ only lived and died and rose again in order to provide justification and forgiveness of sins for His people, has yet much to learn. Whether he knows it or not, he is dishonouring our blessed Lord, and making Him only a half Saviour. The Lord Jesus has undertaken everything that His people's souls require; not only to deliver them from the guilt of their sins by His atoning death, but from the dominion of their sins, by placing in their hearts the Holy Spirit; not only to justify them, but also to sanctify them”.  In this second and final sermon part, we examine the command to holiness and the means to holiness.  As we move from the classroom of theory onto the field of experience, may the Lord bless you!

What is the most important command from the Old Testament? This very question is asked of Jesus in Mark 12:28-34. His answer reveals how short we fall of God's standard, showing us our need of a Savior.

Many in his denomination didn’t preach the gospel. But J.C. Ryle was committed to proclaiming Christ no matter the circumstances. And God used that in a mighty way.

Paul declared preaching to be essential to salvation, but also stressed the need for sinners to carefully hear, for “faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God” (Rom. 10:17). This is as important today as it was then, and as we raise our children, it’s critical we teach them to be attentive to the preacher. J.C. Ryle gives three helpful rules for listening to a sermon: (1) hear with faith, believing implicitly that every word of God is true and shall stand; (2) hear with reverence, remembering constantly that the Bible is the book of God; and (3) hear with prayer, praying for God’s blessing before the sermon is preached, and for His blessing again when the sermon is over.

Our political landscape these days is quite tumultuous: there are deepening divisions, an increase in political violence, and a general sense that things are getting worse rather than better. How are Christians supposed to navigate this? Mark 12:13-17 tells the story of how Jesus was drawn into a political issue of his day, and as we study how he handled the politics of his day, we can learn some things about how we are to handle them in ours.

You set up an assumption, you have a theory, you analyze your data, and you show that the assumption does not hold. Doing good qualitative research is that simple. Except that it's not, of course. On the ground, in the research and writing process, these basic rules can be quite tricky to implement. So we discuss some heuristics researchers can use to limit their conversants, settle on suitable theoretical lenses to examine their data, and collecting more data than what they thought was necessary.   References Geertz, C.

In this episode, I analyze the film "It Ends With Us," featuring Blake Lively, examining its exploration of the cycle of abuse. Despite strong performances and writing, I critique the film's lack of psychological depth. The narrative, centered on Lily's tumultuous love life with Ryle and Atlas, raises questions about her growth and the portrayal of flawed masculinity. I highlight the film's failure to explore women's complexities and its reliance on victimization tropes. However, I acknowledge a powerful moment of reflection by Lily, urging viewers to approach the film with critical awareness of its themes on love and pain. I invite listeners to share their thoughts on the film's portrayal.GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Also get the Truth About the French Revolution, the interactive multi-lingual philosophy AI trained on thousands of hours of my material, private livestreams, premium call in shows, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2022
