Podcasts about sacrificial living

This Sunday, Pastor Bill Dogterom guides us through the poetic and prophetic layers of John's vision. He challenges us to move beyond familiar interpretations and invites us to see Revelation not as a roadmap of future events, but as a profound unveiling of Jesus' lordship and the call to faithful witness. This message urges us to resist the allure of empire and embrace the sacrificial way of the Lamb.

In this new UNCUT episode, Jenny Mitchell gets raw about a term that was casually dropped by last week's guest—sacrificial living—and how it shows up in our everyday work lives, especially for entrepreneurs and corporate folks.   She shares: - What sacrificial living looks and feels like - The turning point that made her say, “No more.” - Simple, empowering shifts to reclaim your time and energy - Why it's time to stop letting your work bucket overflow and start filling your life bucket with intention   This is the kind of real talk you didn't know you needed today—full of honesty, insight, and the gentle nudge to build a life you don't need to recover from.  

"Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, because of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship." Romans 12:1 As we reflect on Romans 12:1, remember, "Beyond fasting lies the feast of compassion, where feeding others' needs nourishes our soul with the fullness of life's true abundance." In other words, we should think beyond traditional fasting practices and consider how we can embody sacrificial living in our everyday actions. It's about offering our time, talents, and resources to serve others, creating a ripple effect of love and kindness in our communities.  The story of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) beautifully illustrates the essence of sacrificial living. When others passed by a wounded man in need, the Samaritan stopped to help him, demonstrating selflessness and compassion. This story teaches us that sacrificial living is not just about grand gestures; it's often found in the simple acts of kindness we extend to those around us. When we serve others with a full heart, we embody Christ's love and impact their lives. 2 Corinthians 9:7 says, "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." Generous giving is another vital aspect of sacrificial living. Whether it's sharing our financial resources or donating our time, every act of generosity contributes to a spirit of community and support. By giving selflessly, we not only enrich the lives of others but also experience true joy and fulfillment in our own lives. Remember, "Service is the silent hymn of sacrificial living, a melody that resonates through every selfless deed and lifts the spirit of both giver and receiver." Sacrificial living also involves sharing our talents with those in need. Every skill and gift we possess can be utilized to uplift others, whether it's mentoring someone in your field or volunteering for a local charity. As we engage in these acts of service, we discover that sacrifice sparks true joy within us. Remember, the more we give, the more we receive." Luke 6:38 says, "Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” Prayer for the Day! Heavenly Father, we thank You for calling us to a life of sacrificial living. Help us to serve others with open hearts and generous spirits. May we always seek opportunities to share our time and talents, reflecting Your love in every action. Teach us to find joy in selflessness and remind us that every small act counts in Your Kingdom. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

After all that Nehemiah and the Jewish people have overcome the work on rebuilding the wall comes to a halt. Why? Because money and greed have led to division amongst the Jewish people. The work can only be continued through Nehemiah's actions of generous sacrificial living. Today we look at how we can begin to live a life fully invested in God through the work of generous sacrificial living in our daily lives.

one of my favorite turn of phrases is found in Psalm 126:5, "they that sow in tears shall reap in joy." In this episode of Cogitations we'll talk about the comfort of this phrase and how it informs our walk of faith in Christ.   Here is an article I wrote on the subject: https://open.substack.com/pub/christianitynow/p/sowing-and-reaping?r=2q6w2w&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web     Be sure to follow us on "X" formerly known as Twitter: https://twitter.com/1Chronicles1232   If you want to support the show monthly, www.patreon.com/christianitynow   You can do a one time donation through www.buymeacoffee.com/christianitynow   You can also PayPal: nearcurches@gmail.com   Be sure to subscribe to the YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristianityNowStreams   #psalms #sowingseed #christianity #christiaitynow #christianitytoday #faithful #faithwalk #biblestudy #bibletime #ecumenical #substack #christianblog #christianpodcast #christianlivestream #youtubelivestream #xlivestream

Romans 12:1-2 King James Version 12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Most people don't even know where Haggai is in the bible, but this short scripture offers a lot of wisdom and instruction for life. Living sacrificially is a counter cultural way of life, but it's the life we are called to by the Spirit. But the extent or size of that sacrifice isn't an indication of God's acceptance, it's more about our intentions and placing God's pleasure above the desire for our own. The sacrifice has to actually cost us something. The prerequisite for receiving the blessings of God is that we have to become the people of God, and when we seek Him first, He will add to us. What does a life of sacrifice look like? How are you living in light of this? What are some things that you are placing above God that you need to reprioritize?
