Podcasts about Sabbath

We've practiced Sabbath more than three hundred times now, and the strangest part is what it taught us. Not how to relax — we're still bad at that — but how to trust. In this episode we talk about what it means to set your tools down one day a week (and how to know what your tools even are), the two sneaky ways we get rest wrong, and why the days that weren't restful still did their work. Plus the manna in the wilderness, and what it has to do with your laundry. If you love what we do and want more behind-the-scenes fun, bonus episodes, and exclusive content, join the walk in love.

Then, we'll flip to the New Testament to witness Jesus stir up massive controversy by healing a man paralyzed for 38 years on the Sabbath. From passionate praise to miraculous healing and divine authority, these chapters are packed with truths that will challenge and inspire us.Connect with us on social:Telegram: @beholdisraelchannelInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/amir.tsarfati/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beholdisrael/X: https://x.com/beholdisraelYouTube: https://youtube.com/@beholdisrael

Welcome to Shabbat Unbound, the world's longest Friday night Sabbath service, stretching over eight episodes. Instead of rushing through all the Friday night Shabbat prayers in one sitting, like we might in a classical synagogue environment, we're taking our time diving deep into one prayer each episode through song study and sacred conversation. It's the most original and traditional way to engage in the transition into Shabbat, taking each prayer as its own world with its own Torah to teach us. Miriam Terlinchamp, Lex Rofeberg and an incredible group of musicians invite you to discover what happens when Shabbat slows down. The first episode focuses on Shiru L'Adonai. [1] Check out the music video for Shiru L'Adonai here. [2] All the music for the Shabbat Unbound podcast was recorded live at The Monastery Studios in Cincinnati, Ohio under the direction of Ric Hordinski.   [3] Check out this page for further learning about Shiru L'Adonai (and all our Shabbat Unbound episodes).  [4] Interested in learning more about composer Jake Erhlich and his community? You can find out more about Jake and Congregation T'chiyah on their website.  [5] “Every psalm, every prayer is an act of relationship, a way of moving into holy Presence, a way of opening ourselves to hear the voice of the Divine, which the cares of ordinary life may, all too frequently, muffle”.  – Psalms of Jewish liturgy, page 121 Miriyam Glazer [6 ] Miriam mentions the  Zohar, the mystical text of Kabbalah, when referring to the Sabbath. You can read more about the spiritual nature of the Sabbath in the Zohar, Volume II (Shemot), Terumah 14:164–165

Since creation God has designed everything to need a time of rest. He commands us in the Old Testament to take a day of rest out of every seven days, but too often we get caught up in the busyness of our lives to take a break. Jesus says that we should come to Him when we are weary because He will help carry our burdens and give us the rest we need.

What if your child's behavior problem is not just a behavior problem?In this episode of the Faithful Fitness Podcast, Coach Alex sits down with Dr. Stacy Haynes, a licensed professional counselor, educator, speaker, author, and children's ministry leader, to discuss a truth every parent needs to understand:Mental health is physical health.Together, they explore how sleep, nutrition, movement, technology, family rhythms, and spiritual formation all shape the emotional and behavioral health of children—especially neurodivergent children.This is not a conversation about replacing counseling, diagnosis, medication, or professional care with “just eat better and exercise.” This is about seeing the whole child: body, mind, emotions, environment, and spirit.Coach Alex and Dr. Stacy discuss:Why children's behavior is often connected to physical wellnessHow sleep, hunger, blood sugar, and screen time affect emotional regulationWhy neurodivergent children may be more sensitive to food, tone, noise, and routineHow parents can support children without shame or fearWhy labels like ADHD or autism can be helpful when used wiselyHow churches can better support neurodivergent children and tired parentsWhy exercise helps regulate emotions, sleep, gut health, and anxietyHow to build healthier family rhythms around food, movement, screens, and restWhy technology should be treated as a privilege, not a rightHow parents can lead by example instead of trying to fix one child in isolationThis episode is especially helpful for parents, children's ministry leaders, teachers, coaches, and anyone who loves a child whose brain or body works a little differently.Your child is not a problem to solve.They are a person to steward, love, guide, and understand.And by God's grace, your family can build rhythms that help everyone flourish.Timestamps00:00 – Introduction to Dr. Stacy Haynes01:14 – “Mental Health Is Physical Health”02:54 – Why Parents Need a Holistic View of Behavior04:13 – Dr. Stacy's Journey Into Counseling and Ministry05:35 – Children's Ministry, Trauma, and Positive Childhood Experiences08:48 – Coach Alex's Childhood, ACE Score, and Church as a Safe Place09:51 – Dr. Stacy's Heart for Children With Autism11:14 – Why Labels Can Help When Used Wisely12:18 – Releasing Fear Around Diagnosis14:24 – Making the Most of How God Made Your Child16:52 – Dysregulation: What It Looks Like in Kids18:50 – Blood Sugar, Breakfast, and Behavior20:08 – What Sugar Can Do to a Neurodivergent Child's Day22:01 – Children's Ministry Lessons From Neurodivergent Kids25:20 – How to Talk With Parents Without Shame26:26 – Helping Parents Become Detectives29:01 – Dandelions, Orchids, and Different Kinds of Resilience33:48 – Sabbath, Rhythm, Rest, and Recovery35:17 – Exercise and Emotional Regulation37:44 – Exercise, ADHD, and the Brain40:36 – Leading by Example as a Family42:21 – Changing the Pantry and Building a Culture of Health43:12 – Christ Is in the Details of Family Rhythms47:24 – Screen Time, Technology, and Stewardship48:26 – Practical Technology Rules for Families51:40 – Replacing Screen Time With Connection55:28 – Rapid Fire: Three Things That Help Kids Quickly56:12 – What the Church Needs to Know About Neurodivergent Families56:39 – Encouragement for Parents Who Want to Shift57:07 – Closing PrayerJoin The Faithful 5k - August 15th!

Host: Steve Macchia, Guest: Matt Scott "A spiritual practice is not a prescription for success; it's an invitation to deeper intimacy with God." - Steve Macchia As Season 40 of The Discerning Leader Podcast comes to a close, Steve Macchia and Matt Scott reflect on the journey of exploring the state of our souls through the lens of LTI's Soul Care Audit. Together they revisit key themes from the season—including caring for our bodies, minds, and emotions; practicing silence, solitude, and Sabbath; cultivating spiritual friendship and community; and embracing the gift of spiritual direction. Through listener questions, Steve and Matt offer practical wisdom for navigating demanding seasons of life, creating space for God in the midst of busyness, building meaningful relationships, and discovering sustainable rhythms of soul care. Ultimately, this conversation points listeners toward a holistic vision of spiritual formation and the life-giving invitation of a personal Rule of Life—a pathway to deeper intimacy with God and greater attentiveness to the health of the soul. The 3 page Soul Care Audit offers you a handful of questions to consider how well you're caring for your soul. You can download the PDF here and spend some time prayerfully reflecting on your current rhythms and practices.  Join the conversation about spiritual discernment as a way of life at www.LeadershipTransformations.org and consider participation in our online and in-person program offerings.

Ruth welcomes Tiffany Childress Price and her husband, Bobby Price, into a conversation focusing on their experiences with neurodivergence as a physiological reality and place of encounter with God. Tiffany explains neurodivergence and “twice exceptional” (2E) brain differences in her sons, describing asynchronous development and the advocacy burden when children are misunderstood, labeled, excluded, or shamed in school. Bobby shares receiving an autism spectrum diagnosis in his 50s after his sons' evaluations, naming lifelong masking, the grief of not feeling included, and the relief of language that affirms God's inclusion. Together they reflect on rejecting moralized views of brain difference, practicing curiosity, radical acceptance, deep Sabbath rest, and recognizing gifts such as sensitivity, discernment, and compassion. On Substack this week, Tiffany shares the different ways their family practices Sabbath as a place of radical and life-saving rest.   Season 29 is titled Becoming Human: With God in Our Bodies. Our goals this season are to confront the dualism between life in the body and life in the spirit, to hear stories of people who experienced their bodies as a place of encounter with God, and to explore the connection between the integration of life in our bodies and our spiritual lives with our leadership. We will be having deep, spiritual conversations with friends of the Transforming Center about their very human experiences in their bodies and how they've experienced God in and throughout these experiences. We will explore God in concrete bodily realities like gender, sexuality, race, ability, aging, illness, and death, to name a few.

1. HEART OF THE MATTER 1A. Record-Breaking Missionary Numbers — Pres. Oaks at New Mission Leader Seminar At the 2026 Seminar for New Mission Leaders (June 18–21, Provo MTC), President Dallin H. Oaks announced that the Church will soon have the largest number of full-time missionaries in its history, surpassing the current 87,000+ serving worldwide. The surge is driven by the first wave of 18-year-old sister missionaries (following the November policy change lowering the minimum age from 19) and the addition of 55 new missions in July, bringing the global total to 506. President Oaks outlined three characteristics defining the restored Church: (1) the fulness of doctrine (including eternal marriage between a man and a woman); (2) priesthood authority and keys; and (3) a unique testimony of Christ grounded in modern revelation and the First Vision. Sister Kristin Oaks also spoke, sharing six core truths missionaries teach. Source: Church Newsroom, June 20, 2026 Note: Strong potential for discussion on what ‘only true and living church’ means in a pluralistic world — Richie angle? 1B. New Hymn ‘Welcome Home’ — The Story Behind It Composer Andrea Brett explains how a 2017 encounter with Demetrius O’Neal — a recent convert serving as a greeter at a Spokane ward on a snowy Sunday morning — inspired her hymn ‘Welcome Home,’ now published in the new Hymns for Home and Church. Brett submitted 10 pieces when the global hymnbook was announced in 2018; this was the only one she’d written before the call. She received confirmation of its selection in February 2025, then had a full-circle moment when she and O’Neal sat near each other at the April 2025 General Conference as the Tabernacle Choir performed it. O’Neal’s name appears in the hymn’s tune name as a tribute. The hymn is now translated and sung globally. Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1C. Family History Records Are a ‘Sacred Thread’ — Elder Bragg at International Archivists Congress Elder Mark A. Bragg, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Family History Department and FamilySearch International, was a keynote speaker at the III Congress of Archivists: Digital Archive Expo (DA-EXPO), held June 8–12 in Astana, Kazakhstan. He called family history records ‘the thin but sacred thread’ tying people together across generations, and argued that records are ‘in a very real sense, witnesses.’ Elder Bragg framed the digital revolution in genealogy in moral terms: for most of history, access to records was shaped by ‘proximity, resources and specialized knowledge,’ but today a record created in one place can be preserved in another, indexed in a third, and discovered by someone on the other side of the world. ‘The reach is astonishing. The speed is breathtaking. The possibilities are almost beyond measure.’ He also said that ‘access is an act of kindness’ — records only fulfill their divine purpose when they are found, understood, and used. His core message: preserving memory is an act of hope. ‘It says that the past is not dead to us and that the future deserves more than fragments.’ Source: Church News, June 17, 2026 Angle: Great ‘quiet but meaningful’ story — LDS family history going global and leveling the playing field for genealogy worldwide. 1D. America Gives — All 50 States Receive Food Donations The Church completed a milestone in its ‘America Gives’ initiative by delivering a shipping container of food to Hilo, Hawaii — marking all 50 states reached. The initiative aims to deliver 250 truckloads of food nationwide in 2026 to celebrate the U.S. 250th anniversary. In Hawaii, the food went to The Food Basket, distributed to 10 local nonprofits. Notably, 42% of residents on the island of Hawaii face food insecurity — the state’s highest rate. Rosie Rios, chair of America 250 and former U.S. Treasurer, praised the milestone. Local Methodist pastor Ted Lesnett said recipients will know ‘when they were hungry, someone cared.’ Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1E. Church Donates $250,000 NZD to Christchurch Anglican Cathedral Rebuild The Church announced a NZ$250,000 donation (June 19, 2026) toward the restoration of Christchurch’s iconic Anglican Cathedral — damaged in the February 2011 earthquake. Elder Peter F. Meurs (Pacific Area President) and Anglican Bishop Peter Carrell presided at the announcement. The donation comes as the project faces a $45M funding shortfall and an overall $219M budget. The Christchurch City Council has offered $15M contingent on government and Anglican Church matches. Notably, a New Zealand Buddhist community made a similar gift in 2023 — the LDS donation continues a cross-faith pattern of support for the heritage project.

Central America Humanitarian Blitz — 5 Projects, 500,000+ People In late May and early June 2026, the Church announced five humanitarian projects across Central America (with Sister J. Anette Dennis, First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, representing the Church). Projects include: the ‘Windows of Light’ eyecare program in El Salvador (350,000+ screenings to date); safe water access for 250,000+ in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua (with UNICEF); nearly 750 computers/tablets donated to 66 educational institutions in Guatemala; and medical equipment for the ‘La Mascota’ children’s hospital in Nicaragua.

Todd Christofferson: He offered the invocation at Becket’s Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia (multifaith event celebrating religious liberty), alongside Elder Gary E. Stevenson and others. The group also visited the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall — fitting, ahead of America’s 250th. Christofferson reflected on D&C 101 and the Constitution’s purpose to protect ‘all flesh.’ From Philadelphia, he and Sister Christofferson traveled to Toronto, meeting 250+ missionaries in the Canada Toronto Mission weeks before it divides into three missions (Toronto West, Toronto East, and Montreal). He also spoke to hundreds of LDS youth, with one — Amelia Fischer — saying ‘no amount of words can describe how I felt tonight.’ Source: Richie’s document / Church Newsroom 2B. BYU Scholar Study: Religion Adds 7.6 Years to Life The BYU Wheatley Institute is releasing three reports analyzing 3,000 of the most scientifically rigorous studies (culled from 60,000+ papers by Duke University) on religion and health. Key findings: 33/34 studies show improved social health; 10/11 show improved mental health; 7/8 show improved physical health. Regular worshippers live an average of 7.6 years longer (up to 13.7 years longer for African Americans). A ‘landmark finding’: 256 studies show religion prevents/aids recovery from substance abuse (vs. 6 showing negative impact). Author Loren Marks recommends public health frameworks treat religious involvement like exercise recommendations. Source: Richie’s document 2C. Elder Soares Testifies in the Philippines Elder Ulisses Soares completed a two-week ministry in the Philippines (mid-May 2026), meeting with 600+ young single adults in Cebu, 450+ in Quezon City, and 340+ missionaries at the Philippines MTC. His recurring message: ‘His arms are extended to all of us.’ The Philippines has more than 905,000 Latter-day Saints — the Church’s fourth-largest national membership. Two new temples were also dedicated in the Philippines this month: the Davao Philippines Temple (Elder Renlund, May 3) and the Bacolod Philippines Temple (Elder Andersen, May 31). Source: Church Newsroom, June 17, 2026 3. CULTURE & CURIOSITIES 3A. LDS Author in Everyman’s Library — A First BYU biology and bioethics professor Steven L. Peck has reportedly become the first Latter-day Saint author included in the prestigious Everyman’s Library series (publishing canonical English fiction since 1906). His 2012 novella A Short Stay in Hell — a philosophical horror story about a Mormon man condemned to an afterlife library containing every possible book — went viral on BookTok and found a new audience. A literature historian noted: ‘No Mormon or Mormon-adjacent writer that I know of has ever been featured in this prestigious series.’ The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story, noting the irony that a theological horror story marks one of the most significant moments in LDS literary history. Source: Salt Lake Tribune / Richie’s document 3B. The Sasine Family — 40 Countries Before Age 1 Keith and Chelsea Sasine, an LDS couple stationed in Germany (Keith is an Army oral surgeon), made history in November 2025 by taking their youngest daughter Mia to 40 countries before her first birthday (March–November 2025), using a Honda Odyssey for European road trips. The family of six (including Izzy, 10; Abby, 9; and John, 4) attends local wards wherever they travel — a faith anchor the couple says strengthened their testimony and taught their kids the importance of the Sabbath globally. They’re planning a move to Colorado Springs in 2026. Source: Richie’s document 3C. Jen Affleck (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives) Expecting Baby #4 Jen Affleck, 27-year-old star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and Dancing with the Stars alum, announced June 18 that she and husband Zac Affleck are expecting their fourth child.

The Sabbath is God's gift of rest to His people. While Jesus fulfilled the Sabbath and changed how believers observe it, the wisdom behind the command remains. God calls us to intentionally create rhythms that help us rest in Him, trust Him, and delight in what He has done.True Sabbath rest is not found in a day. It is found in a Person. Jesus invites us to trust Him, delight in Him, and develop rhythms that continually lead us back to the rest only He can give.

"When we are busy, we are numbed out to this sense of inadequacy that we all know is real. Deep, deep, deep down." ~ Kenna MilleaWhat does it actually look like to be addicted to the hustle and not even realize it?How does staying perpetually busy become a coping strategy for the deeper questions we are afraid to sit with?What if the solution to your busyness is not better time management, but a ruthless commitment to doing less?In episode 103 of This Whole Life, Pat and Kenna Millea get honest about their own addiction to hustle. Drawing on John Mark Comer's The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, they explore why so many of us, including two licensed therapists who know better, cannot seem to slow down, and what our busyness is really covering up.They dig into the spiritual roots of hurry, why John Mark Comer calls it the greatest threat to the interior life, and how the Catholic social tradition has been telling us for over a century that work was made for man, not the other way around. Kenna shares a moment from her own therapy that reframed everything: the possibility that her anxiety has been masking depression all along, and that staying busy is the most productive-looking way to avoid sitting with the hard questions of the human experience. Pat gets equally honest about the cost of hurry in his own fatherhood, admitting that far too often he is yelling at his kids not because of what they are doing, but because he is in a hurry and their seven-year-old slowness is incompatible with his schedule.They close with four practical S's from Comer's book: silence and solitude, Sabbath, simplicity, and slowing. The challenge is to pick just one and try it for a week.This episode is for anyone who has answered "how are you doing?" with "so busy" and quietly wondered why that answer feels both true and empty at the same time.Chapters: (00:00) - Cold Open (00:37) - Welcome and Episode Intro (01:47) - Lightning Round: 90 Seconds with Kenna (09:39) - Highs and Hards (16:07) - Why We Might Be the Worst People to Host This Episode (17:46) - The Spiritual Roots of Busyness (21:41) - The Mental and Emotional Cost of Hurry (34:12) - Busyness as a Coping Strategy (42:47) - The Louis C.K.

Just how good are those Radiocarbon dates? When reporting an exciting archaeological discovery, popular science magazines tell the reader, for example, that some man-made artifact is 40,000 years old. A few years ago it was common to find tolerance figures such as plus or minus 1500 years attached to these ages. These tolerance figures effectively leave an impression of objective precision in the mind of the reader. Those tolerance figures are seldom used today.The Radiocarbon method was developed in 1948 and at that time was believed to be the ultimate answer to the archaeologists dating problems. The method has not lived up to its promise and today it is distrusted by the scientific community unless backed up by a second dating method. To give one example, when scientists Carbon-dated a mammoth bone hide-scraper discovered in the Yukon it was evident that man and mammoth lived at the same time but it Carbon-dated at 25 to 32 thousand years old. However, this put man on the North American Continent about twenty thousand years before humans were supposed to have arrived here! Eventually, a second test method using a nuclear accelerator was used and this dated the same piece of bone at only two thousand years!This example is common and Bible-believing Christians should not be concerned that Carbon dated ages will in any way disprove the Bible.Exodus 20:11"For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it."Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus Christ, You are the Word through Whom we were created made flesh for our salvation. You are the beating heart of Scriptural truth. Help us to see that, for Your sake, all of Scripture is trustworthy.Ref: “Old Crow Bones and Radiocarbon Dating,” Creation Ex Nihilo.

Can you be deeply religious and still miss Jesus completely? That is the question at the center of Mark chapter 2, and the answer might be more uncomfortable than we expect. In this passage, Jesus and His disciples are walking through a grain field on the Sabbath when the disciples pluck heads of grain to eat. The Pharisees immediately accuse them of breaking the law. But Jesus points out something important: the disciples were doing exactly what Mosaic law permitted in Deuteronomy 23. What they violated was not Scripture but the man-made traditions the Pharisees had layered on top of it. The Pharisees had constructed thirty-nine categories of prohibited Sabbath activities, building fence after fence around the commandment until the original purpose was buried. God gave the Sabbath as a gift, a reminder of rest and relationship with the Creator. The Pharisees turned it into a burden and made their rules more important than the heart of God behind the law. Jesus responds with one of the most significant declarations in the Gospels: the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath. This title connects directly to Daniel chapter 7 and the coming Messiah. Jesus was not just correcting a misunderstanding about grain fields. He was revealing that the entire law had been pointing to Him all along. As Paul later wrote in Colossians 2, the Sabbath and the festivals were shadows of what was to come, and the substance is found in Christ. The Pharisees did not have a Sabbath problem. They had a Jesus problem. They knew the Scriptures, believed in God, and pursued holiness, but when the Messiah arrived, they rejected Him because He did not match their expectations. This passage raises three important truths for every believer today. First, God's Word is the standard, not tradition, preference, or cultural expectation. Second, preferences are productive until they become pious, meaning traditions are helpful until they start replacing the mission rather than serving it. Third, it is entirely possible to be religiously busy and still miss Jesus. Topics covered include the Sabbath in the New Testament, religious tradition versus Scripture, the authority of Jesus Christ, the meaning of Son of Man, lessons from the Pharisees, Mark chapter 2 Bible study, how to avoid legalism, and what it means to surrender to Christ as Lord. Whether you are exploring Christianity for the first time or have been following Jesus for decades, this message is a call to examine whether your faith is centered on Jesus Himself or on the religious habits that surround Him. He is Lord over every day, every tradition, and every part of life.

Matthew 11 with Bill DogteromThis week Bill teaches on the ways embracing Sabbath works its way into the rest of our lives -- its changes how we keep time, how we release control, and how we learn to trust God more wholly.

s the Old Testament Law a heavy burden to be avoided, or a guide to the heart of the Lawgiver?

Was Jesus a lawbreaker? Did He violate the Sabbath? What exactly was the Sabbath designed for, and how should we observe it? This will be our focus this weekend and next. The conflict between Jesus and the religious leaders is heating up. Today we make four observations about the Sabbath.I. The Sabbath Was a Benchmark (v. 23)II. The Sabbath Became a Burden (vv. 23-24)III. The Sabbath Needs a Balance (vv. 25-26)IV. The Sabbath Should Be a Blessing (v. 27)Learn Your Bible: Read Psalm 37 and meditate on verse 7 as you intentionally choose to “rest in the Lord” this week.Love Your Neighbor: Ask God to soften the hearts of your unbelieving friends and family members, and invite them to join you at Freedom Celebration next Saturday.Live in Freedom: Ask the Lord to reveal areas of your life in which you're anxious and striving rather than resting in His plan and purpose for you.

John 5:1-9 NIVSome time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals.Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. The day on which this took place was a Sabbath.

In Acts 13, Paul preaches his first recorded sermon. He's tired, sick from the journey, and dealing with conflict in ministry, and he stands up in a synagogue full of people who already know the story. They've read the law and the prophets Sabbath after Sabbath. Then he gets to the end and reveals the one thing that changes how all of it reads: Jesus.We walk through Paul's sermon as he traces the whole Old Testament back to Jesus, the one every promise was pointing to the entire time. We talk about what it means to recognize him instead of choosing to unsee, what it means to call him Lord and not just clip him on when it's convenient, and why the peace and freedom we're after isn't found in performance or practices but in the person of Jesus.And it ends where the whole story has been heading all along. Not a God standing over you saying do more, but a Father who climbed the mountain himself and did not withhold his only Son. You were never asked to climb it. He already climbed it for you.Pastor Darren Rouanzoin, from our series Church on Fire: A Journey Through Acts.

Stop Living Like You're Going To Run Out On June 25, 1967, the Beatles debuted a new song during the first live international satellite broadcast in human history. Roughly 350 million people across 25 countries tuned in at once. It was the first time technology had connected the world in real time, and the most influential band on the planet had the chance to say anything they wanted to all of it. They chose “All You Need Is Love.” Credit where it's due: they weren't wrong about the diagnosis. We do need love. Our families need it, our communities need it, you need it. But the Summer of Love built its vision on a definition of love untethered from commitment, more about self-expression than self-sacrifice, more about discovering yourself than denying yourself for someone else. We're still living in the wake of that definition. There's a sad irony here too. Less than three years after that broadcast, the band that sang “all you need is love” had broken up. We shouldn't judge them too quickly, though. We're all prone to the same thing. Marriages fall apart. Friendships dissolve. Churches split. Left in our own power, none of us are naturally quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger. A Letter Without a Fire to Put Out Paul's letter to the Ephesians stands apart from his other letters in an important way. Most of Paul's writing is reactive. He writes to Corinth because they keep finding creative new ways to sin. He writes to the Thessalonians because they've quit their jobs, convinced the end is imminent. He writes to Timothy because fear has gotten the better of him. Ephesians isn't putting out a fire. Paul is painting a picture: a church where enemies become family, where broken people are made whole, where love isn't just defined but actually displayed. And right at the hinge point of the letter, before he tells anyone how to live or love, Paul drops to his knees and prays. Specifically, he prays that the church would be filled with the fullness of God's love. Why start there? Because your vision of God's love determines the shape of your entire life. If you believe God is distant, you'll live anxious. If you believe his love must be earned, you'll live like a performer. If you believe he's withholding, you'll live fearful and controlling. But if you believe he delights in you, you'll live secure. There's a real difference between knowing God loves you and actually believing it. Gradual, and Multi-Sensory Paul's prayer reveals two things about how this comprehension actually happens. First, it doesn't happen all at once. Paul prays in a kind of staircase: being strengthened in your inner being, then Christ taking up full residence in your heart (not just visiting, but holding keys to every door, including the ones you keep locked), then becoming rooted and grounded in love as your actual operating system, and finally being filled with the fullness of God. This is the slow work of spiritual formation, becoming a person with greater and greater capacity to both receive and give love. Second, it doesn't happen in one way. We tend to assume love is something you learn in a classroom, like memorizing facts about the ocean. But Paul prays that we'd “know Christ's love that surpasses knowledge.” That's not something you take care of in a single lecture. It's something closer to diving into the water itself. You experience God's love in community, when people pull their chairs closer instead of pulling away from your honesty. You experience it in practice, in things like Sabbath rest, which you can't learn from a textbook, only from doing it. You experience it through the Holy Spirit, who ministers directly to your deepest wounds. And you experience it in both moments and marathons: the instant where you finally feel like you don't have to hide anymore, and the long seasons of endurance that shape you over years. The Problem Was Never Scarcity A couple adopted a five-year-old girl from Haiti named Addie, whose parents had died in an accident. Her first night in her new home, she watched her two teenage brothers devour an entire dinner and clear the table. She went quiet, convinced she'd just witnessed the last meal she'd see for a while. Her new mother didn't just tell her there was more food. She walked her to the fridge, the pantry, the freezer, and showed her everything. “Honey, you'll never go hungry again.” That's what Paul is doing in this prayer. He's opening the fridge. He's opening the pantry. He's saying: stop living like an orphan. Stop living like God's love is scarce. Look around. There is more than enough. The problem was never a shortage of God's love. The problem is our capacity to receive it. Many of us are sitting at the Father's table still living like we're starving.

We've built our lives around being busy. And somewhere along the way, we forgot that God didn't. He stopped. He rested. And then He told us to do the same.The Forgotten Commandment is a 4-week series built around four practices — stop, rest, delight, and worship. It's not about adding one more thing to your already-packed week. It's about returning to the rest you were always meant to have.Support the show

Parsha ‘Korach’ (Numbers chapters 16 through 18) is popularly known as the story of “Korah’s Rebellion.” And the Erev Shabbat reading of the portion by Mark Call of SSM certainly explains why: https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/SSM-6-19-26-Korach-teaching-podcast-xx.mp3 But we risk missing out if we don’t ask some important questions, and not even just “why?” This was, after all, the guy who had led them through the Red, er, Sea of Reeds, and spoke directly to YHVH Himself. Who did they think they were? But maybe we shouldn’t be surprised. After all, Yahushua told all us that if we don’t believe “Moses’s Writings,” how could we believe His Words? “Korach: A Rebellion that was the First of Too Many https://hebrewnationonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/WT-CooH-6-20-26-Korach-If-we-cant-even-RECOGNIZE-Moses-how-can-we-hope-to-spot-a-FAKE-podcast-xxx.mp3 Service information: Shabbat Shalom Mesa fellowship worship services and teachings are broadcast live every Sabbath, via Paltalk.

We have a lot to learn from Manna

By Mike Phelps - We are invited to hear, come to, learn from, love, and follow Jesus.

By Scott McKeon - Revelation 13 reveals Satan's final attempt to establish a counterfeit kingdom through political power, religious deception, and human authority in imitation of the coming Kingdom of God.

By Scott Delamater - Jesus was misidentified, misunderstood, and not what anybody expected. He describes His ministry in terms that still surprise today.

By Mark Miller - The Parable of the Prodigal Son is well known to Christians. Have you considered that not one, but both, sons in the story were lost? We dive deeper into the story to derive lessons from both of these lost sons.

By Raymond Clore - When we think of fathers we often think of strength, protection, provision of needs and guidance. But true strength is not only about power or authority - it is also about the courage to be kind.

By Tim Martens - The world has become increasingly secular. This Biblical analysis exposes what the world would be like if there really were no God.

By Jay Ledbetter - The Apostle Paul discovered one of the greatest spiritual truths a Christian can learn. Weakness is not the enemy of God's work; it is often the very pathway through which God's power is revealed. As Believers, we can take courage that our inadequacies, struggles, and limitations do not disqualify
