Podcasts about Sacrifice

PERPETUA AND THE RISE OF CHRISTIANITY Colleague Emma Southon. The final segment discusses Perpetua, a young nursing mother and Christian convert in Carthage. Defying the Roman mandate to sacrifice to the emperor, she views suffering as redemptive rather than a punishment. Unlike Romans who viewed suicide by poison as honorable, Perpetua and her slave Felicity choose martyrdom in the arena, having their throats cut to demonstrate their faith, signaling the rise of Christianity.

Jesus' Lineage; Our Lineage by Autumn Dickson I opened up the New Testament this week to study the birth of Christ. I ended up down a bit of a rabbit hole, and I'm going to take you to part of it with me. My rabbit hole took me all over the place, but I'm going to try and simplify it into some basic ideas. It's going to be very technical at first and there are some nice enough implications, but then I want to more broadly apply it to the rest of us. The thing that really got me started down this rabbit hole is the fact that the very first verses we read in the New Testament are the lineage of Joseph. Funny enough, I had never noticed it consciously before because I usually just skip over that part. As I thought about it a bit further, I realized that it was odd. Why are we sharing Joseph's lineage when Jesus isn't of that lineage? Wouldn't it be more effective and helpful to share Mary's lineage (Yes, I know that wasn't the tradition then; it just seems like it would make more sense considering the fact that she's his biological mother). I then learned that many biblical scholars believe that we do have Christ's lineage through Mary. In Luke's account, we receive another account of lineage. This listed lineage lists Joseph, but scholars believe that it's Mary's line anyway. It just mentioned Joseph because of social norms. There are some other theories surrounding Luke's account of lineage, but the most widespread theory is that it really is Mary's line. We're going to go with that theory for all intents and purposes in this particular post. Why is lineage important? Well, it's important for a few reasons. We'll talk about its significance in the life of Christ, and then we'll talk about its significance in our own lives. It had been prophesied that Christ would come off of the Davidic line. Beyond that, He wasn't going to be just some random descendant but heir to the throne (if the Romans hadn't been in charge at the time). Christ's lineage through Mary and Joseph was really important for this particular prophecy. Christ comes off of the Davidic line biologically through Mary. This biological portion of being from the Davidic line is important for obvious reasons. However, Joseph's line is important too. Through Joseph, Christ is able to be known as an heir to the throne of David because that kind of thing always legally passed through males. I spent some time learning about Jewish customs and laws surrounding adoption, and I'll give you a couple of short facts. There wasn't much of a legal proceeding with official records and paperwork when it came to adoption. Rather, if a man stepped up to the role of father in a child's life, that child was legally adopted. If the father treated the child as his own, then the child held claim to everything that the other children held claim to. Inheritances, the family name, all of it. This was actually really important in a society where it mattered who your family was. Christ was of the Davidic line in all the ways that mattered. And this is absolutely amazing. It's cool to think about how God orchestrated every single detail to come together for Christ to fulfill prophecy. It's amazing. Even with His human side coming through His mother, He was still legally adopted and considered an heir through Joseph's line. But I actually want to take this further to allusions surrounding our own heritage, inheritances, and legality in terms of God's family. Like Christ, there are two parts that play into our inheritance. Biologically (not sure if that's the right word but we're going to run with it because I don't have a better word), we are spirit sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father. Because of our divine parentage, we were always meant to inherit a throne. It's within our “blood,” so to speak. But there's another portion of this. Through divine authority known as the priesthood, we are “legally” adopted into the family of God. There are three parts to this next thing I was to talk about. Christ could have stepped into His kingship if the Jews had been RIGHTEOUS enough to hold on to their kingdom. Joseph SACRIFICED and LEGALLY ADOPTED Christ and because of that, Christ would have been able to step into His kingship. If Israel had been righteous, Christ would have been king. If we are RIGHTEOUS and lay claim upon Christ's power to LEGALLY ADOPT us into the House of Israel, the because of Christ's SACRIFICE, we are to be divine heirs. As another detail in inheritance that is rich in meaning, primogeniture (firstborn son's claim to the throne over other children) was overwhelmingly common but not the absolute rule. Through wickedness or directly through the decisions of God, the older could be deemed unfit to inherit such power. Heavenly Father truly is the Master. All of the details are laid out so beautifully. There are a million parallels in the gospel that add layer upon rich layer to our understanding. I testify that God is in the details. The more I learn about the gospel, the more I am filled with a sense of awe at all of His orchestration. I testify that we come from a divine family, and I testify that Christ made a sacrifice and gave us the power we needed to adopt us into His family as well. All of these combine to an astounding truth; we have been set up to be heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, to inherit a divine throne. There is so much we were born into. God has so much in store for us. Autumn Dickson was born and raised in a small town in Texas. She served a mission in the Indianapolis Indiana mission. She studied elementary education but has found a particular passion in teaching the gospel. Her desire for her content is to inspire people to feel confident, peaceful, and joyful about their relationship with Jesus Christ and to allow that relationship to touch every aspect of their lives.

"The Impossibility of Sacrifice and the Reality of Oneness”  In this illuminating movie session with David, we are gently guided into the remembrance that awakening is a one-way ticket to the heart—a natural return to what has always been true. Through commentary on the second mini-movie from the Pluribus series, David reflects on Oneness, showing how resistance, anger, and judgment are delay maneuvers of the ego, while God's Love for us remains unstoppable and all-encompassing.  The movie scenes unfold as living parables, reminding us that awakening is not forced but comes through a gentle willingness to lay aside fear and accept the happiness already given. He emphasizes the importance of changing perception rather than trying to change the world. As we are all going deeper in applying these teachings in our daily lives, we are continually invited into the quiet recognition that the game of fear has no real power. As David reminds us, “Salvation can be thought of as a game that happy children play… be happy now!”  For more information about David Hoffmeister, and Living Miracles events, visit https://www.the-christ.net/events Listen to the entire talk: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/mystical-christ-academy-the-impossibility-of-sacrifice-and-the-reality-of-oneness-movie-session-with-david-hoffmeister--69061437 To participate online in a Movie Gathering, join our online community: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/membership-weekly-online-movie-gatherings Join our online community:  https://programs.the-christ.net/products/communities/tribe-of-christ If you are interested to know more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, here is more information:  https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events.

Is Jesus really in the Old Testament? Discover how ancient stories—like Isaac's near-sacrifice and Jacob's ladder—point to Christ as the heart of God's redemptive plan. 

Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Matthew 2:1-12Episode Overview:In Matthew's telling of the Magi's journey, we are invited to behold something both shocking and glorious: unlikely seekers traveling far to worship an unlikely King. Pagan astrologers arrive at a humble home, drawn by divine guidance and overwhelming joy, to bow before the child born King of the Jews—and Savior of the world. Their presence reveals the wide reach of God's grace and confronts our tendency to narrow who we believe can come to Jesus.This passage also unveils the gospel through the gifts the Magi present. Gold, frankincense, and myrrh together proclaim who Jesus truly is: King, God, and Sacrifice. Before Jesus speaks a word or performs a miracle, His mission is already foreshadowed—He reigns, He is worthy of worship, and He has come to give His life for sinners. In the most humble setting, God gives His greatest gift.Key Highlights:• The surprising arrival of the Magi shows that God's invitation to worship extends to the least likely and the outsider• Matthew's repeated call to “behold” awakens us to the wonder and scandal of grace• The three gifts proclaim the heart of the gospel: Jesus is King, God, and Savior• True wisdom is not merely seeing Jesus, but falling down in worship• The greatest gift is given in the most humble wrapping—God the Father giving God the Son Call to Action:This passage invites us to examine what we expect from God—and whether we are willing to recognize His work when it comes in humility rather than splendor. Like the Magi, we are called to seek Jesus faithfully, rejoice deeply when we find Him, and respond with surrendered worship. Come to Christ not with what you think He needs, but with empty hands and a bowed heart, trusting that He Himself is the treasure.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

In part three of “The Gifts We Bring,” Pastor Phil Hopper explores the meaning behind the wise men's gift of myrrh. While gold symbolizes Christ's kingship and frankincense points to His divinity, the gift of myrrh foreshadows His sacrificial death. Myrrh reminds us that Jesus was born to die—for you and me.To live the A-Life means to follow Jesus' example: deny yourself, take up your cross, and make your life a living sacrifice. God cannot bless an empty altar—He blesses what we surrender to Him. When we live for Christ, empowered by His love, we find true life, purpose, and joy.Join us this week at Abundant Life Church as we celebrate the greatest gift ever given—Jesus Christ. Don't forget to click the “bell” to SUBSCRIBE to get more videos like this to grow your faith! Connect with us on Social Media ↴Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/abundantlifels/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/abundantlifelsConnect with Pastor Phil ↴Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PhilHopperKCInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/philhopper_kcBooks & Resources       https://livingproof.co/resources/books Listen to The Well Podcast ⤵Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5wadnywAMEK7c0E1qatMoY?si=SjH6Ko7VR3OoHrRy1yYLlQ&nd=1&dlsi=395ae55d95ac4b11Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-well/id1233267223YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR50sV854C2hogfBmv7YogvCjiNYLz9a2Find Your Next Step: https://alife.livingproof.co/Watch more sermons: https://abundant-life.com/sermons/Do you want to see your life changed by Jesus?

It's the finale of our Christmas trilogy! Things have gotten dire as an Ultra Violet and Ultra Violent renegade Santa has appeared to punish our heroes. It's an epic battle of sacrifice, violence, and nasal laser. It's about to get James Hard: with a Vengeance!

Let's journey to Middle Earth together! Readers meet Frodo, the unsuspecting beneficiary of Bilbo's ‘Ring'. This gift turns the innocent hobbit's world upside down. Frodo and his friends, Sam, Merry and Pippin set out on a quest to meet up with Gandalf the Grey which is no small task as Black Riders are trailing the travelers. Along the way they meet a Ranger, tall, lean, dark, who goes by the name of Strider. He tells Frodo his carelessness with the Ring has announced to the evil people that the hobbits are in town. Frodo receives a note of warning from Gandalf NOT to use the ring again. He also tells him his friend, Strider, (aka Aragorn) will help him get to Rivendell where he hopes to meet with him.Sacrifice and camaraderie are themes throughout the book. When plans fail there is no blame game. When mistakes are made, they are owned, when tensions arise options are given.When Gimli, the Dwarf, refuses to abide the elves' rule for him to be blindfolded, Aragorn suggests that their whole party be blindfolded.Won't you join us for the journey? We wish each one of you a Merry Christmas!!!

SACRIFICE EVERYTHING Thank you for listening to our podcast I hope we motivated you a little today. SUPPORT MY PODCAST: Buy me a coffee - https://ko-fi.com/bethebestyoupodcast ✅ Follow me:

Most don't know the sacrifice of Jesus. We focus on the Cross but the Sacrifice of Jesus begins long before the Cross and continues long after the Cross. Jesus did all of this for our Salvation. Turn to Jesus and receive His fullness.

You know they say that all men are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Horse Girl Tim and you can see that statement is not true. See, normally if you go one on one with another horse girl, you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But Tim is a genetic freak and not normal! So you got a 25%, AT BEST, to beat him. Then you add Jenna to the mix, your chances of winning drastic go down. See the 3 way at Sacrifice, you got a 33 1/3 chance of winning, but Tim, he's got a 66 and 2/3 chance of winning, because Sugarfoot KNOWS he can't beat Tim and he's not even gonna try! So Sugarfoot, you take your 33 1/3 chance, minus the 25% chance and you got an 8 1/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. But then you take Tim's 75% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 66 2/3 per cents, I got 141 2/3 chance of winning at Sacrifice. The numbers don't lie, and they spell disaster for you at Sacrifice.

Having finished teaching His disciples, Jesus now proceeds toward the cross and the resurrection. In Mat.26:6-13, Matthew describes an incident which occurred in the house of Simon the leper in the village of Bethany.This happens two days before Jesus is crucified.During His time there, Jesus resolves a supposed conflict between the disciples and their misguided priority concerning the expenditure of costly perfume. They all deemed it a waste to anoint the savior with the expensive perfume.Jesus explained that this perfume was a pre burial anointing. He knew He was going to die and His betrayal was near at hand.The priority of value should be placed on Christ Himself. He should have first place in all things.He is worthy of our sacrifices.Join us on the Unchanging Word Bible Broadcast as Dr. Mitchell shares Jesus from Matthew 26:6-13.

Patrick kicks off the episode with sharp memories of environmental predictions gone sideways, then pivots to old-school hairspray panic and Sunday donut rituals. Quirky moments tumble into thoughtful answers about confirmation names, staying until the end of Mass, and what to do if disaster strikes mid-liturgy. Nostalgia, candid stories, and odd donut debates pop up alongside serious questions about yoga in Catholic schools and how angels fit into the big picture.

830 Consecration to the Lord Based on Sacrifice, A Guided Christian Meditation on Luke 2:22-24 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in  and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ.  Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization.  You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing.  If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes.   Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation:   Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate,  deflate. Scripture for Meditation ESV NIV 22 When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord"), 24 and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: "a pair of doves or two young pigeons." KJV 22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; 23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) 24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons. Reflection on Scripture: I almost always record my episodes moments before posting them. If you ever see them posted at 2 or 3 in the morning that is because I just finished editing them. For the last couple weeks I have been sleeping in the desert with my Marines so I pre-recorded the episodes. This year the Christmas season somewhat snuck up on me because of this trip. I slept on the ground and in the cold in the dirt. Each time I am presented with these hardships it makes me so grateful for my blessings. Sometimes the things we do in life can challenge our focus or have us asking why things happen the way they do. From moments of discomfort, grief, anxiety, or temptation sometimes our small human minds find it difficult to feel seen by a perfect on loving God.  This scripture points out something. The sacrifice for two doves was an option in place of a sheep, which would have cost much more. The sacrifice of two pigeons was known as the offering for the poor. Mary, the mother of Jesus, the very Son of God offered the sacrifice of the poor. She and Joseph must have had very little by way of earthly assets. With that said, this was far from a judgment about their quality. Our struggles serve us well when they draw our attention to the Lord and our dependance on Him.  When hardship turns our focus to God and makes us more grateful, then that hardship becomes a blessing. Mary's poverty existed conjointly with her humility. Whatever you wished your life would have been, whatever you wished would be different about your family, or this season, or any other earthly outcome it does not change God's profound love. Actually if our human weaknesses point our focus to God then we are indeed blessed. Thank God for our struggle, may it ever draw our focus to Him. During this Christmas, don't focus on what made this season incomplete, allow any challenge to draw your attention to the one who redeems all. He has overcome the world, and as such so will we. Merry Christmas. God bless us, every one.   Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials.

Week 52 - Christmas: "God was the first one ever to make a blood sacrifice on this earth"Please visit us at CFMpodcast.org

Pastor Alan R. Knapp discusses the topic of "SEE: Living by Faith at the Edge of the Eschaton Part Sixteen: Abel's Sacrifice" in his series entitled "Hebrews 2020: We See Jesus" This is Increment 411 and it focuses on the following verses: Hebrews 11:4

2 of 15 in a series through Mark 10-16

In this profound Christmas message we conclude "The One and Only" series by examining the Magi's gift of myrrh to baby Jesus, symbolizing His ultimate sacrifice and healing role as King. From Matthew 2:1-12, these Persian "king-makers"—influenced by Daniel's prophecies—acknowledged Jesus as the true King of the Jews, bringing myrrh used for embalming, anointing, and healing, foreshadowing His suffering and death (Isaiah 53:5). Myrrh appears throughout Jesus' life: at birth, mixed with wine at crucifixion (Mark 15:23), and in His burial (John 19:39-40), highlighting the cost of our salvation—His life for ours.This message calls us to respond by bringing our "myrrh": living sacrificially through persecution, generosity, and service, as Romans 5:1-5 shows suffering produces perseverance, character, and hope. It also invites us to be healers, offering forgiveness and peace smeared with the myrrh of Christ's grace. If Jesus is King, embrace sacrifice not as waste but as productive, turning temporary pain into eternal glory.Join this Christmas reflection to see the Magi's gifts anew and let myrrh challenge you to honor Jesus' sacrifice with your own bold, healing faith.CONNECT WITH US:→ Request Prayer: https://bit.ly/3zMyf5E→ Request Care: https://bit.ly/3fBTX5G→ Share a Testimony: https://bit.ly/3Jo7Ped→ Find Events and More: https://bit.ly/3TcrkcR→ Leave us a Review on Google: https://bit.ly/47925jP→ Plan a Visit in Person: https://bit.ly/3sfQdg7FOLLOW US:→ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/illuminatec...→ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@illuminate_ch...→ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/illuminatech...WE HELP PEOPLE FIND ABUNDANT LIFE IN JESUS!

In this powerful encore episode of Corsi Nation, Dr. Jerome Corsi is joined by Scott Wiper, creator and director of the feature film FLYNN, for an in-depth discussion of the life, service, and targeting of Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA).Wiper and Dr. Corsi explore General Flynn's distinguished military and intelligence career, his leadership at the DIA, and the internal conflicts he faced during the Obama administration as he challenged entrenched bureaucratic thinking. The conversation traces how Flynn's reform efforts and later service in the Trump administration brought him into direct conflict with powerful forces inside the U.S. government.This episode examines:General Flynn's career-long commitment to national serviceHis reform efforts inside the intelligence communityThe events that led to his targeting by the Deep StateThe pressure campaign that threatened his family, including legal threats against his sonWhy Flynn chose to sacrifice his reputation and career rather than betray his principlesHow these events fit into a broader pattern of weaponized government powerScott Wiper explains how the film FLYNN was made to document these events and preserve the historical record of what happened behind the scenes.

Eric Perez emphasizes the importance of using our God-given gifts to serve others, illustrating how true leadership involves humility and sacrifice, much like Joshua's determination to prioritize serving the Lord amidst societal distractions.

Dead Funny History: The AztecsJoin historian Greg Jenner for a funny and fascinating family adventure into the world of the Aztecs, an extraordinary civilisation of gods, gold, chocolate and… the odd human sacrifice.The rise of an empire The Aztec Empire thrived in Central Mexico between the 14th and 16th centuries. Greg takes families and children back to Tenochtitlan, the stunning island city that became the Aztec capital. Home to grand pyramids, bustling markets and thousands of temples, it was four times bigger than Tudor London!The Aztecs built their empire through skill, trade and an unshakeable belief in their gods. They worshipped deities of war, water, joy, dreams and even mischief; with a few dramatic rituals to keep them happy.Sacrifice, skulls and sunshine In this laugh-out-loud lesson, Greg explains why the Aztecs offered human hearts to the gods to keep the sun shining, and how their earth goddess, Tlaltecuhtli, demanded regular blood donations. From “flower wars” to giant skull racks, Aztec religion could be extreme, but it was also deeply symbolic and full of meaning.Not all the stories are scary, though. Between the jokes and sound effects, Greg reveals a lively culture where chocolate was money, gold was “sun poop”, and weddings were celebrated with piggybacks and cocoa toasts!Life in Tenochtitlan Greg and the Dead Funny History cast bring the city to life with humour and heart - from the markets full of maize, avocados and chillies, to the matchmakers who literally “tied the knot.” There's even a cameo from the world's first emojis - Aztec picture writing!It's history told with big laughs, smart facts and plenty of family fun, as Greg balances gory moments with the joyful, inventive side of Aztec life.The fall of the Aztecs Of course, not every empire ends happily. Greg tells how Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortés arrived in 1519, bringing war, betrayal and devastating diseases that wiped out much of the Aztec world. It's a sobering but powerful story about bravery, belief and survival.Funny, factual and unforgettable With jokes, sketches and sound design that make history come alive, Dead Funny History – The Aztecs is perfect for curious kids, families and fans of Greg Jenner's clever storytelling. Discover how one of the world's greatest civilisations shaped modern Mexico, and how chocolate really did change the world!Writers: Jack Bernhardt, Gabby Hutchinson Crouch and Dr Emma Nagouse Host: Greg Jenner Performers: Mali Ann Rees and John-Luke Roberts Producer: Dr Emma Nagouse Associate Producer: Gabby Hutchinson Crouch Audio producer: Emma Weatherill Script consultant: Professor Caroline Dodds Pennock Production Coordinator: Liz Tuohy Production Manager: Jo Kyle Studio Managers: Keith Graham and Andrew Garratt Sound designer: Peregrine AndrewsA BBC Studios Production

NBA champion Lamar Odom joins the show to reflect on his life story — from growing up in South Jamaica, Queens and becoming a top NBA draft pick, to winning championships with Kobe Bryant on the Lakers, navigating fame, addiction, and the pressures that came with his rise.
