    Pastor digs deeper into the question "where was the temple gate that was called the 'Beautiful Gate' located?"   In Acts 3:1-2 we see that there was a lame man begging for alms at the Beautiful Gate. Pastor opens with stating that we are not sure exactly where it was located, but that there are several theories on its location.   Several locations have been proposed:   One of the earliest proposed locations is that it may have been the Eastern Gate or the Sushan Gate. However, surviving literature says this gate was not used by the people to go in and out of the Temple Complex, but was used for the religious practices like taking sacrifices out. Without the coming and going of people the lame man would not have been begging there. Another proposal is the Nicanor Gate made of bronze. It was one of the gates in a secondary wall that surrounded the Sanctuary area within the Temple Complex, but there is a good deal of evidence that it was not a practice to allow the lame into the inner court area.  The third proposal has been suggested by many as the gate the lame man would have used.  It is a gate located at the southern end of the Complex and known as the Double Gate,  the main gate through which the people would have entered the Temple Complex. Pastor Dodge references a book by archeologist and architect, Leen Ritmeyer, entitled "The Quest: Revealing the Temple Mount in Jerusalem." Ritmeyer suggests that the Double Gate is where the lame man would have been. Pastor shares recent archeological work exposing the massive pilgrim route from the Pool of Saloam up to the Double Gate entrance of the Temple Complex. Some of the "Southern Steps" leading up to the Double Gate from Jesus' day and before, can still be seen today.    While we do not know exactly where the lame man was that day, what we do know is that he was changed. In the hours after the lame man's miraculous healing remarkable things followed and that's what we will look at in our exploration of Acts chapter 4 of our study "God ACTS! Then and Now."

    You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for May 28, 2026. We open with a constitutional showdown between the Department of Justice and four sanctuary states that are refusing to provide confidential license plates to federal immigration agents. The DOJ argues these states are deliberately obstructing federal law enforcement by denying undercover protections to ICE and Border Patrol agents while continuing to provide those same protections to state and local police. We examine where the line exists between non-cooperation and outright obstruction, why the fight is about much more than license plates, and how this battle could reshape the ongoing conflict between sanctuary jurisdictions and federal immigration enforcement. We also cover the swatting attack targeting Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, the shocking arrest of a former CIA executive accused of stealing more than $40 million from taxpayers, and a new Department of Justice investigation into E. Jean Carroll over allegations she may have provided false testimony regarding the funding of her lawsuit against President Trump. Later, we discuss reports of a federal judge under investigation for misconduct inside her own chambers and ask what happens when the people entrusted with upholding the law become the source of the scandal themselves. American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson join us for one of the most fascinating conversations we've had in a while after a man awakens from a medically induced coma convinced he lived an entirely different seven-year life complete with a wife, children, and a successful business. We explore the mysteries of the human brain, vivid dreams, coma experiences, and why some people struggle to separate imagined lives from reality. In New York City, Mayor Zoran Mamdani is once again generating controversy after discussing plans that critics say amount to government seizure of private property from landlords deemed "bad" by city officials. We break down the constitutional questions surrounding property rights, eminent domain, and whether the proposal represents a dangerous expansion of government power. We then dig into an unexpected critique from the left. Salon magazine argues the Democratic Party's post-election autopsy is focused on messaging failures while ignoring a deeper problem: the policies themselves. We examine why even some progressive voices are beginning to question whether Democrats' platform is increasingly disconnected from the concerns of everyday Americans. Plus, encouraging economic data, growing business optimism despite global uncertainty, new protections for religious liberty inside the Department of Health and Human Services, controversy surrounding New York City's mayor skipping the Israel Day Parade, and a look at the new commemorative quarter honoring America's 250th anniversary.

    Welcome to Day 2870 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2870 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 131:1-3 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2870 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2870 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Song of Ascent – The Sanctuary of the Quiet Soul In our previous episode on this grand pilgrimage, we crawled through the dark, suffocating currents of the eleventh Song of Ascent, Psalm One Hundred Thirty. We stood at the very bottom of the spiritual abyss, De Profundis, crying out from the depths of personal and corporate guilt. We witnessed the hyper-vigilant sentry straining his eyes on the city battlements, waiting with absolute, unshakeable certainty for the first radiant rays of the dawn. We celebrated the staggering reality of Yahweh's celestial ledger-erasing forgiveness, and we anchored our lives to a redemption that completely overflows, buying our souls back from the legal custody of the dark powers. Today, we step forward onto the next section of the mountain pass, moving into the twelfth song of this ancient pilgrim collection. We are exploring Psalm One Hundred Thirty-One, verses one through three, in the New Living Translation. This masterpiece, written by King Solomon's father, King David, is one of the shortest psalms in the entire Bible, containing only three brief verses. Yet, what it lacks in length, it more than makes up for in profound, world-altering psychological depth. It provides the perfect, beautiful emotional resolution to the desperate cry of the previous psalm. Once a soul has been lifted out of the depths of the abyss, and completely cleansed by the overflowing mercy of the King, the frantic striving, the exhausting pride, and the paralyzing anxieties of this life simply melt away. Let us step onto this quiet, sunlit ridge of the trail, and learn the rare art of a quiet soul. The first segment is: The Abdication of Cosmic Hubris Psalm One Hundred Thirty-One: verse one. Lord, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty. I don't concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp. The song opens with an intimate, raw, and deeply transparent confession made directly to the Creator. “Lord, my heart is not proud; my eyes are not haughty.” To fully appreciate the staggering nature of this statement, we must look at the identity of the writer. This is King David speaking. David was not a quiet, sheltered monk living far away from the realities of the world. David was a towering giant of human history. He was a ruthless warrior who slaughtered tens of thousands on the battlefield, a brilliant political strategist who unified a fractured nation, and a wealthy monarch who established an empire. He was a man who possessed every earthly reason to be consumed by arrogance. Yet, as he walks the pilgrim road to Jerusalem, stripping off his royal robes and marching shoulder-to-shoulder with the lowliest peasants, he looks up to the heavenly throne room and declares, “Lord, my heart is not proud.” The Hebrew word for proud here implies being swollen, inflated, or lifted up above your proper station. David refuses to let his heart be infected by the toxic gas of self-importance. He adds, “...my eyes are not haughty.” Haughty eyes are visually raised eyes. It is the posture of a person who constantly looks down their nose at others, treating fellow image-bearers with condescension and contempt. We remember from our trek through Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Three how deeply the pilgrims suffered from the contempt of the proud and the arrogant proxies of the culture. David actively abdicates that posture. He refuses to participate in the competitive, status-driven games of the world. He then provides the practical, operational definition of his humility: “I don't concern myself with matters too great or too awesome for me to grasp.” Other translations render this phrase, “Neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too wonderful for me.” The Hebrew phrase for “too awesome” or “too wonderful” is b'nifla'ot mimeni, which refers to things that are hidden, supernatural, or beyond human jurisdiction. We must view this through the lens of the Ancient Israelite divine council worldview, as masterfully taught by Doctor Michael S. Heiser. In the ancient Near East, the great temptation for human rulers was cosmic hubris. The rebel spiritual principalities—the fallen elohim of the nations—rebelled against Yahweh precisely because they wanted to overstep their assigned boundaries. They wanted to hoard forbidden knowledge, manipulate cosmic events, and ascend to heights that were reserved exclusively for the Most High God. They infected human empires with this same madness, driving pagan kings to perform dark, esoteric rituals to uncover the hidden secrets of the gods, frantically trying to control the future through sorcery and political manipulation. David looks at the chaotic, overreaching ambition of the rebel gods and their earthly empires, and he completely opts out. He says, “I am not an elohim. I am a human being made of dust. I am a servant, not the Master. I do not need to understand the hidden, complex mechanics of how Yahweh governs the unseen spiritual realm. I do not need to stay awake at night frantically worrying about the turning of the cosmic gears, or trying to decipher every single hidden mystery of the universe.” True wisdom lies in knowing your limitations within God's created order. It is the peace of acknowledging that you do not have to be omniscient, because you serve a King who is. David abdicates the burden of trying to run the cosmos, choosing instead to manage the small, specific territory of his own obedience. The second segment is:The Sanctuary of the Weaned Child Psalm One Hundred Thirty-One: verse two. Instead, I have calmed and quieted myself, like a weaned child who no longer cries for its mother's milk. Yes, like a weaned child is my soul within me. Having cleared away the noisy, exhausting clutter of pride and cosmic anxiety, the psalmist introduces one of the most beautiful, tender, and emotionally resonant metaphors in all of Holy Scripture. “Instead, I have calmed and quieted myself, like a weaned child who no longer cries for its mother's milk. Yes, like a weaned child is my soul within me.” Notice the active verbs used here: “I have calmed and quieted myself.” This tells us that a peaceful soul is not something that happens to us automatically or accidentally. It requires aggressive, intentional self-discipline. The natural human heart is a raging storm of desires, appetites, and demands. Left to itself, your soul will scream for attention, throwing continuous tantrums for more control, more validation, and more security. To calm and quiet the soul means you have to actively take the reins of your inner life, speaking the authoritative words of the Creator over your own internal chaos: “Peace, be still.” To illustrate this quietness, David invites us to look at a mother and her child. But pay close attention to the specific stage of development he highlights: it is a weaned child. In the ancient Near East, a child was typically not weaned until they were three, or even four, years old. An unweaned, nursing infant operates on a purely transactional, high-stress relationship with its mother. When that tiny baby is hungry, it doesn't care about the mother's comfort, the time of night, or the surrounding environment. It experiences a physical craving, and it screams. It scratches, it claws, and it treats the mother not as a person to be loved, but as a utility to be consumed. The moment it gets what it wants, it falls asleep; the moment the milk is delayed, the frantic, red-faced panic returns. This is a profound, accurate description of how many of us naturally relate to the Creator. We live as spiritual infants, completely unweaned from the world. Our relationship with Yahweh is entirely transactional. We approach His throne room only when we want something, when we are desperate for a blessing, hungry for a breakthrough, or terrified of a crisis. We scratch and claw at His hand, demanding that He fulfill our immediate desires according to our precise timeline. And if the answer is delayed, or if the blessing is withheld, we immediately throw a spiritual tantrum, accusing God of abandoning us, and allowing our hearts to spin into a frenzy of anxiety. But look at the weaned child. This older child has gone through the painful, difficult process of having the immediate gratification of the milk removed. They have survived the transition. And now, they come to...

    Today's Headlines: The Department of Homeland Security is threatening to cut customs staffing at major international airports in sanctuary cities like New York, LA, Chicago, and DC — which would affect not just tourism but cargo shipments and the broader economy — because DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin apparently thinks international trade can just reroute to Florida. Trump, meanwhile, said he's "in no hurry" to end the Iran war while also telling reporters he might skip his own son's destination wedding in the Bahamas because of "this thing called Iran," which is either a convenient excuse or the most relatable thing he's ever said. The Traitor Fund — formerly known as Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund — is getting wilder by the day: Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio wants $2-5 million, Mike Lindell is asking for $400 million, a January 6th rioter who compared herself to Jesus during sentencing wants $10 million, George Santos might file, and the couple who pointed guns at BLM protesters is reportedly interested. Acting AG Todd Blanche went to Congress to lobby Republicans not to block the fund — and offered to cut them in on it, specifically noting that senators whose records were secretly subpoenaed are eligible to file claims, which is a sentence that exists. The Senate responded by going home for a few weeks rather than dealing with it, which is technically a dereliction of their constitutional duty to approve funding, but here we are. Mortgage rates also hit a nine-month high this week at 6.51%, Trump is claiming he can build his DC arch without congressional approval, and a design commission approved the arch's look, which is one of many steps still required — Congress included, no matter what Donald says. On the Epstein files, Jeffrey Epstein's former personal assistant Sarah Kellen testified before the House Oversight Committee in a session described as deeply informative and genuinely harrowing — revealing she was recruited at 21, sexually and psychologically abused by Epstein for over a decade, and was "being paid in part to be raped." She also told the committee that the federal government included her name in Epstein's 2008 nonprosecution agreement without ever speaking to her, effectively branding her a criminal in a secret deal made with her own abuser.

    The border is far more secure under President Trump, but Tom Homan says the next major immigration battle is happening inside the country.

We discuss who the worst offenders are, whether Democratic leaders are intentionally provoking confrontations with ICE, what changed after Minnesota, how the administration plans to fight sanctuary resistance, and what Americans should expect from immigration enforcement over the next six months. Homan also addresses the recent border apprehension uptick, whether cartels are testing the administration, and what success should look like by the end of the year. This is the immigration fight now: secure the border, enforce the law, and stop sanctuary politicians from putting politics over public safety. Learn more about your ad choices.
