Pastor Travis Hearn brings a powerful and cinematic message to Impact Church titled “Living a Life of Sacrifice.” With raw honesty and heartfelt storytelling, he invites us into the legacy of his mother—Toni—a woman who gives up her own dreams, works four jobs, and sacrifices everything just to be present for her son. But this isn't just her story—it becomes a mirror for all of us. In this message, Pastor Travis calls you to something deeper: not just believing in Jesus, but fully belonging to Him. As he unpacks Romans 12:1, you'll be challenged to offer your life—not in part, but in full—as a living sacrifice. Worship, he says, isn't just what happens on a Sunday stage, it's what happens when your life hits the altar on Monday morning. If you've ever felt unseen, broken, or out of place, this message reminds you—you're not overlooked, you're set apart. Through the promise of Psalm 91 and the boldness of Daniel, you'll be inspired to stop conforming and start transforming. Because when you see God's mercy clearly, giving Him everything won't feel like loss—it'll feel like the only thing that makes sense.

Hope with God... with Andrew and Wendy Palau

1 John 3:16 says this... This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. Is this the way you've thought about God? As the One whose love actually moves us to love others, to show compassion, and moves us to live generously? This isn't some distant, uncaring God. This is a God whose heart beats for you and for every single person on this planet as well. He longs for everyone to know Him, to experience His perfect, life-changing love. And He wants us to be a part of sharing that love, spreading the word about who He is to the whole world! This is your opportunity today to rethink whatever you may have heard about Jesus. Will you take that risk and ask God to meet with you right now? Always remember there is hope with God. I'm Andrew Palau. radio.hopewithgod.com

In Acts 21:1-36, we encounter a chapter filled with a man earnestly pursuing the will of the Lord. As the Apostle Paul journeys to Jerusalem, he gains deeper insight into God's purposes for his life: some expected others surprising. Yet through it all, one truth remains clear: Paul understood that God's will for him was to walk in the footsteps of his Savior. What we learn in these three scenes are qualities each of us might pray for as we seek to have “The Will of the Lord Be Done” in our lives: 1. A Submissive Heart to God's Leading, 2. A Sacrificial Love for the Church, and 3. A Steadfast Faith in All Circumstances.

The nuclear family is the backbone of a strong society—without it, we will crumble. In this episode, we're talking about Elon Musk's latest love child with Ashley St. Clair and why Conservatives cannot fall into the trap of normalizing single motherhood and reckless men who create broken families. Strong individuals come from strong families. When the family unit collapses, people become weak, directionless, and ultimately easier for the government to exploit. The more broken the home, the more dependent the individual. And guess who loves that? The people in power who want control over your life. So, we are talking biblical gender roles, marriage, family, and why morals will always matter—even if they stop mattering to everyone else. A father's leadership and a mother's nurturing aren't interchangeable, and no amount of modern delusion will change that. Children need both a mother and a father in the home. And no, morals don't change for you once you're rich. Wh*re culture needs to die because the next generation is at stake.--https://policecoffee.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooc599VmOCGa3oE2DnVcJ4uLA69XDoBZf8ChiOpFqVfKc_BASiR

Faith Without Action Is Dead: Are You Really Living for God? | James 2:14-17

Resolute Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Jan 9, 2025 5:04


What good is your faith if it sits on the bench instead of stepping into the game? James warns us today that true faith doesn't stay idle. It moves, takes action, and meets the needs of those around us. Faith that doesn't act is dead—lifeless, useless, and disconnected from God's purpose. So, is your faith alive and thriving? Or does your faith need a resurrection? Welcome to the Daily Devo. Our text today is James 2:14-17. What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. — James 2:14-17 To be clear, James isn't suggesting that works save us. Salvation is by faith alone, through the finished work of Christ on the Cross. What James is saying is this: true, saving faith produces visible evidence. A faith that doesn't show itself in action is not alive—it's counterfeit. James' message cuts straight to the heart of Christian apathy. If we claim to follow Christ, we can't just say it; we must show it. If I believe in a God who loves, then my life must overflow with love. If I trust a God who provides, my actions should reflect generosity. And if I know a God who forgives, then I must extend forgiveness and mercy to others. Faith that works isn't optional—it's essential. James paints a vivid picture: if you see someone shivering in the cold and starving and all you offer are empty words, “You've got this!” you're missing the point entirely. They don't “got this.” They're cold. They're hungry. Real faith doesn't drive by; it stops, steps in, and meets the need. Here's the hard truth: selfishness and a desire for convenience lie at the root of dead faith. We avoid helping because it disrupts our plans, our comfort, or our resources. But a living faith embraces the inconvenience because it reflects the sacrificial love of Christ. Faith that works, works. This year, don't just proclaim your faith—live it. God didn't just say He loved us; He demonstrated it by sending Jesus to die for our sins. Jesus' sacrifice is the ultimate act of faith in action. If you've experienced His love, let it move you to love, serve, and act in ways that reflect Him. Take a moment to examine your heart. Is your faith alive and active, or does it need a resurrection? Confess where you've fallen short and ask God to breathe life into your faith so it overflows into your actions. Lord, I confess that my faith has been stagnant in too many areas of my life. Thank You for showing me mercy through Jesus. Help me to live out my faith by meeting the needs of those around me and showing Your love through my actions. Amen. If you're ready to get off the bench and into the game, write “I'm in the game” in the comments below. Let's live a faith that moves, reflecting the God who moved heaven and earth to save us. Join me tomorrow as we continue our study through James! ASK THIS: How does your daily life show evidence of your faith? When have you chosen convenience over meeting someone's need? What steps can you take to make your faith more active? Does your faith reflect the sacrificial love of Christ?

Texts:  Exodus 34:5-8; John 3:16-17; 1 John 4:7-12   The Steadfast Love of God Declared in His Name (Exodus 34:5-8) This is the first passage where God declares His character to us. He is full of mercy, grace, faithfulness, and love with forgiveness for sinners.   The Stunning Love of God Demonstrated in His Son (John 3:16-17) God's love came down to us in the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ. Because of Christ's condescension in love to us, we can be saved unto eternal life through faith in Christ.   The Sacrificial Love of God Displayed in His People (1 John 4:7-12) God's sacrificial love for us was clearly displayed in the incarnation and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ for our sins. Since God's love abides in us as believers, we are now compelled and equipped to love others sacrificially.

I'm so excited to share this special episode of The Love Offering Podcast with you! Today, I'm chatting with my friend Brooke McGlothlin from Million Praying Moms about my new book, Everyday Prayers for Love. As we talk, we dive into some of the core themes from the book, including: Why prayer is such a powerful tool for navigating the challenges of motherhood and life. How living out the fruit of the Spirit can transform our daily interactions. The freedom that comes from fully understanding God's lavish and unconditional love. What it means to love our neighbors sacrificially, even when difficult. This conversation is so close to my heart, and I hope it encourages you to fully embrace God's love in your life. Love isn't just a feeling—it's a choice, an action, and a reflection of God's heart in the world.   Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Everyday Prayers for Love by Rachael Adams Million Praying Moms Free Devotional: Loving Our Children as God Loves Us Connect with Me: Website: rachaelkadams.com Instagram: @rachaeladamsauthor Facebook: @rachaeladamsauthor Connect with Brooke: Website: http://www.millionprayingmoms.com/ Instagram: @brookemcglothlin Subscribe & Review:If this episode encouraged you, I'd be so grateful if you'd leave a review and share it with a friend.
