    Welcome to Day 2914 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2914– “Joyful Return, Insightful Response”  based on Luke 10:17-24 Putnam Church Message – 07/19/2026 The Good News According to Luke: “Joyful Return, Insightful Response.”   Last time our message was “Practical Talk to Those in Ministry,” where we learned to leave the harvest in the hands of the Lord who is the Lord of the harvest. Today, we continue with our thirtieth message from Luke's narrative of the Good News of Jesus Christ. Today's message is: “Joyful Return, Insightful Response.” Our core passage today is Luke 10:17-24, on page 1612 of your pew Bibles. The Seventy-Two Return 17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.” 18 He replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. 20 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” 21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do. 22 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.” 23 Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.” Opening Prayer Father, we come before You today with joy and humility. Thank You for calling ordinary people into Your Kingdom work. Thank You that the name of Jesus is greater than every power of darkness, every accusation of the enemy, and every fear that troubles our hearts. Lord Jesus, help us rejoice in the right things. Teach us to celebrate Your victories without becoming proud of our usefulness. Remind us that our greatest joy is not what we accomplish for You, but that we belong to You. Open our eyes to see what prophets and kings longed to see. Give us childlike hearts that receive Your truth with faith and obedience. Holy Spirit, guide us now as we listen to Your Word. Amen. Introduction: A Story - Returning From the Battle In the early nineties, a few years after Desert Storm, General Norman Schwarzkopf wrote an autobiography titled It Doesn't Take a Hero. Near the middle of the book, he describes his thoughts as he headed for his first combat command position in Vietnam. He was a West Point graduate, full of energy and idealism. He went to Vietnam, as he said, for “God, country, and Mom's apple pie.” But later, after a second tour of duty, he returned from a battle-scarred landscape where young men under his command had died or had lost parts of their bodies to landmines. He came home to a divided nation, and he wrote with exhausted realism, “I realized then I was really tired of being a commander… I thought, Thank God it's over. I'd saved as many lives as I could… I wanted to get home to my family.” Same geography. Same war. Same mission. But what a difference between the man who went out and the man who returned. In Luke 10, the seventy-two whom Jesus sent out also return from the battlefield. But the seventy-two return with joy. In our last message, “Practical Talk to Those in Ministry,” we watched Jesus send them out two by two. He told them the harvest was great and the workers were few. He sent them like lambs among wolves. He told them to travel light, offer peace, heal the sick, and announce that the Kingdom of God had come near. They went out as messengers of the King. / Now they return. And they come back like children running through the door after seeing something amazing. “Lord,” they say, “even the demons obey us when we use Your name!” They had gone out to announce peace, but they discovered that the name of Jesus also carried authority over the powers of darkness. Jesus rejoices with them. But He also corrects their perspective. He lifts their eyes above the thrill of ministry success and says, in effect, “Yes, rejoice that evil is retreating. But do not build your joy on power. Rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” That is our theme today: The greatest joy of a disciple is not what we do for Jesus, but that we belong to Jesus. Which brings us to our four truths today which are found in your bulletin insert on the side that is titled: Joyful Return, Insightful Response Main Point 1: Kingdom Ministry Pushes Back the Powers of Darkness The seventy-two return with joy and say, “Lord, even the demons obey us when we use Your name.” That little word “even” carries their surprise. Jesus had told them to heal the sick and announce the Kingdom. But apparently, as they ministered in His name, demons also submitted. They saw firsthand that the mission of Jesus was not merely moral improvement, social kindness, or religious instruction. It was war against the dominion of evil. Luke has been showing us this from the beginning. Jesus confronted demons in the synagogue. He delivered the man in the region of the Gerasenes. He gave the Twelve authority over demons. He healed the boy whom His disciples could not help. And now the seventy-two discover that the authority of Jesus extends through them as well. This is where we need to understand the Bible's bigger supernatural worldview. The late Dr. Michael S. Heiser often reminded readers that the Bible presents a spiritual world populated by heavenly beings. In the Old Testament, we see scenes of God's heavenly council, sometimes called the Divine Council. God is the Most High, the Creator, the supreme King. But Scripture also shows lesser spiritual beings who serve, rebel, accuse, deceive, or oppose God's purposes. In Job 1 and 2, we meet “The Satan,” or “the adversary,” appearing among the heavenly beings. In that setting, the word functions like a title — the accuser, the challenger, the prosecutor. By the time we reach the New Testament, Satan is clearly presented as the great enemy of God's people, the tempter, the accuser, the ruler of a rebellious kingdom of darkness. So, when Jesus says in Luke 10:18, “I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning,” He is not giving the disciples a small compliment. He is interpreting their ministry as part of a cosmic victory. Every sick person healed, every demon rebuked, every message of Kingdom peace proclaimed — all of it was evidence that the usurper's rule was cracking. The adversary was falling. Object Lesson: The Flashlight in a Dark Room Imagine turning off the lights in a room and then switching on a flashlight. The darkness does not negotiate. / It does not hold a committee meeting. / It simply retreats where the light shines. That is what happens when the Kingdom of God advances. When Jesus walks into a synagogue, demons cry out. When Jesus steps into Gentile territory, a legion of demons loses its captive. When Jesus sends out His followers, evil spirits submit to His name. Not because the disciples are impressive, but because the King is present through them. Ancient Israelite Context For a first-century Jewish listener, this would not sound like a mere private spiritual experience. It would sound like the long-awaited victory of God. Genesis 3:15 promised that the seed of the woman would crush the serpent's head. Psalm 91 spoke of trampling lions and serpents underfoot. Daniel 7 envisioned the Son of Man receiving authority, glory, and sovereign power. The prophets looked forward to the day when God would defeat evil and restore creation. Now Jesus says, “You are seeing the beginning of that victory.” The Kingdom has come near. Modern Illustration We may not always see dramatic confrontations with evil spirits, but we still see the Kingdom push back darkness. When an addict finds freedom in Christ, darkness...

    A Prayer for Gratitude to Grow Your Joy

    Sometimes discouragement arrives with a long list of justifications. And sometimes it settles in for no obvious reason at all, quietly smothering the smiles that should be there, draining the joy that ought to fuel the day. Either way, the result is the same: days wasted without the delight that God intends for His children, even while His blessings sit quietly uncounted all around us. The solution is simple and genuinely hard all at once: when we want to grow our joy, we need to grow our gratitude. Psalm 9:1 models exactly this — giving thanks to the Lord with a whole heart, recounting His wonderful deeds one by one. The enemy knows what happens when we lock our gaze on God's goodness. We give God more glory. We praise Him more freely. And our joy grows deeper and more resilient than any circumstance can touch. That is precisely why Satan works so persistently to keep us focused on disappointment, distraction, and darkness. Gratitude is an act of spiritual resistance. It is fighting back by fighting forward — turning our eyes to God's good promises, proclaiming His praise, and naming out loud every small, large, and beautiful blessing He has placed before us. Do it in the hard seasons especially. Write them down, whisper them in prayer, speak them alongside other believers in worship. Make it a habit, and watch what begins to grow. Check out Keri's latest book, Win Over Worry: Conquer What Shakes You and Soar With the One Who Overcomes. You can find it on Amazon or at your favorite online retailer. Today's Bible Verse "I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart; I will recount all of your wonderful deeds."— Psalm 9:1, ESV Ponder Today Gratitude and joy are directly connected. When joy feels distant, gratitude is almost always the fastest path back to it. Counting God's blessings is not a surface-level spiritual exercise — it is a soul-deep practice that genuinely shifts our perspective and our experience. The enemy works persistently to keep us camped on hardship. Satan knows that a heart fixed on God's goodness is a heart that praises freely and grows in joy. Choosing gratitude, especially in difficult seasons, is an act of spiritual resistance. Wholehearted thankfulness is what produces the fullness we long for. Psalm 9:1 does not call for polite acknowledgment — it calls for the whole heart. Halfhearted gratitude produces halfhearted joy. Give all of it to God and watch what happens. A Prayer for You Today Lord Jesus, I thank You with my whole heart for all the wonderful things You have given and done. On hard days and in long seasons of struggle, I find my mind camped on hardships and I lose sight of Your abundant blessings. But I know that is when I am depriving myself of the joy You long for me to have. When I fix my eyes and whole heart on You and Your goodness and thank You over and over for Your constant flow of blessings, joy grows and abounds in my life. Help me stay in a state of gratitude, because I certainly have so much to praise You for — every moment, every day, and always. Thank You, thank You, thank You, Lord. Amen.

    Why didn't Jesus establish the Messianic Kingdom during His first coming? Why did He suddenly begin teaching in parables? And what do the four soils reveal about the condition of our hearts, spiritual maturity, rewards, and the Church Age? In this in-depth study of Matthew 13:1–23, Pastor Brandon Holthaus explains why Israel's rejection of the Messiah marked a major turning point in God's Kingdom Program. Discover how the Mystery Kingdom unfolds between Christ's first and second comings and why the Parable of the Sower is the foundational key to understanding all of Jesus' Kingdom parables. In this message you'll learn: • Why Jesus changed His teaching from plain speech to parables • The four different heart conditions represented by the soils • Why the first soil never germinates while the other three do • The difference between shallow, worldly, and fruitful believers • How Satan attempts to snatch away God's Word • The role of persecution, worldliness, and spiritual maturity • Why receptivity—not intelligence—is the issue • What Jesus meant by "understanding" • The significance of the 30-, 60-, and 100-fold harvest • How the Mystery Kingdom relates to the Seven Churches of Revelation • Why life often doesn't go according to our plans—and how God is still accomplishing His Kingdom purposes The Parable of the Sower reminds us that the power of God's Word never fails. The determining factor is not the quality of the seed, but the condition of the soil.

    When Paul and his team carried the gospel into Greece, they stepped into places deeply influenced by darkness and unbelief. But wherever they went, people began hearing about Jesus Christ, and their lives were transformed. However, Satan fought back, stirring opposition and forcing Paul and his companions out of town after town to try to stop the spread of the gospel. But Pastor Ken tells you today that once the Holy Spirit changes a life, that transformation becomes a testimony that others can't ignore.

    The Fugitive In the Mirror - #10311

    A Word With You

    Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was not only the creator of Sherlock Holmes, but apparently he was a creative practical joker, too. The story is told of one horrendous - although clever - practical joke that he played one time. He just wrote a short, unsigned telegram - all in fun - to 12 of the best known men in England. The anonymous message was the same; only six words - six scary words, “All is discovered. Flee at once.” You want to guess what happened? As the story goes, within 24 hours not one of those men could be found. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about “The Fugitive In the Mirror.” Interesting! These men were chased, ultimately not by what someone else knew they had done, but by what they knew they had done. It reminds me of the insightful words of Proverbs 28:1 in the Bible, “The wicked man flees though no one pursues.” You know, twice America has run a popular TV series, and then there was ultimately a blockbuster movie called “The Fugitive.” It's about a man on the run who can't shake his pursuer. In a sense, we're all “the fugitive.” Every one of us knows what it is to be chased emotionally and spiritually by what we've done in the past: the people we've hurt, the messes we've made, the wrong we've done. Maybe nobody else knows, but we know and we can't shake the guilt, the regrets, and that nagging fear of having to face God with it some day. And like the fugitive on the screen, we can get away from it for a while, but it eventually overtakes us again. Is there no way to erase the guilt of the past instead of being chased by the guilt of the past? Thank God, there is. It's described in our word for today from the Word of God in Zechariah 3:1. In a very real way, the man called “Joshua the high priest” is a picture of you and me. Here's what it says: He is “standing before the angel of the Lord (Who, by the way, many believe is actually Christ in the Old Testament.), and Satan standing at his right side to accuse him.” The devil, who will not let you forget what you have done, stands there telling God, “Hey, there's no way You can take this one, not when You know what he's really like.” Maybe you've felt that way too: too dirty for God to ever really love you - to ever let you into His heaven. The Bible describes this man as “dressed in filthy clothes.” But it goes on to say, “the angel said, ‘Take off his filthy clothes.' Then he said to Joshua (and I believe He wants to say this to you today), ‘See I have taken away your sin, and I will put rich garments on you.'” You'll never get anywhere with God as long as you're trying to stand before Him trying to look all religious and righteous. We're filthy, according to Him. That's what our sin makes us. But because Jesus loved you enough to take all the guilt and all the hell of your sins and pay for it on the cross, He can literally take away the guilt and take away all the penalty of all your sin. Can I tell you what today is about? It's about you finally being clean inside, totally forgiven, and totally free from every sin you have ever committed. But you have to respond to what Jesus has done for you by trusting Him to be your personal Savior from your personal sin. You do that when you say to Him, “Jesus, I believe what You did on the cross is my only hope. I've been running my life long enough. I want to be Yours from today on, and I'm grabbing You like a drowning person would grab their rescuer.” There's some wonderful information that will help you nail down once and for all to know you have got this settled at our website. Would you check it out? It's ANewStory.com, where maybe your new story could begin. Today the flight of a spiritual fugitive can finally end, because it ends at the foot of Jesus' cross.

    This week we're continuing our series on Revelation and Resistance series with Revelation 13:1-18 and 17:1-6. We examine the grotesque images of the Beasts rising from land and sea as images of the Roman Empire, a misshapen, deceptive, and violent creature trapping people unknowingly in the worship of Satan. Then we turn our attention to Woman Babylon, the beautiful seductress whose goblet is filled with the blood of the saints. Having these images before us gives substance to our unknown fears, we think, making visible that which lurks at the edges of our consciousness. More than that, perhaps, these images invite us to unmask the beastliness and seduction of the Empire in our own day. How are we unwittingly seduced and coerced into the worship of violence?

Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in Asia. 6 Greet Mary, who has worked hard for you. 7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners. They are well known to the apostles, and they were in Christ before me. 8 Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord. 9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys. 10 Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the family of Aristobulus. 11 Greet my kinsman Herodion. Greet those in the Lord who belong to the family of Narcissus. 12 Greet those workers in the Lord, Tryphaena and Tryphosa.

All the churches of Christ greet you.17 I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. 18 For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. 19 For your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil. 20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.21 Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you; so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.22 I Tertius, who wrote this letter, greet you in the Lord. 23 Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.25 Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages 26 but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith— 27 to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.1.     The sermon opens with the "how's it going" that isn't really a question — quick, shallow, going nowhere. Do you experience much of that shallow interaction in your day-to-day life?2.     Paul's list of greetings cuts across every social line Rome used to keep people in their place — status, class, ethnicity, gender. Where in your own life do you find it hardest to cross those kinds of lines (there are others in our culture)?3.     Paul tells Apelles he's "approved in Christ" — you've been through the fire and held on, and also, your approval was never in yourself to begin with. Which of those two do you need to hear more right now?4.     Sometimes the same quality that makes a church warm and welcoming is exactly what wolves exploit. How do you hold those two things together — staying genuinely open and also genuinely discerning?5.     If you are a Christian, what do you find to be your personal hurdles to engaging in free, full-hearted worship of God?6.     Quartus — "Number Four" — a nobody with a slave's name, whose name ends up in the most important letter ever written. Is there someone in your life right now who feels invisible or nameless to the people around them, and what would it look like for you to do what Paul did?

    That colossal all-seeing eye staring out from the FIFA World Cup Finals yesterday at the Meadowlands Stadium is the perfect emblem of the New World Order. Humanity gathered into one arena, surrounded by technology, united beneath a single unblinking gaze. The dark sphere at the center becomes the pupil, the exploding light forms the iris, and the surrounding skyscrapers point toward it like the spokes of an emerging global system. The New World Order to be precise. Also contained within that image is a a giant X behind the eye, a nod to the coming Antichrist, and the surrounding imagery suggestively reminsicient of a nuclear attack. At the very least, none of it had anything to do with a soccer match. The best part? It was watched by one/fifth of the entire world, just about 2 billion people.“And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.” Revelation 18:2,3 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, that is precisely how the New World Order presents itself. It doesn't announce chains, tyranny and servitude; it promises unity, security, peace, protection and global cooperation. The all-seeing eye declares that nothing will remain private, independent or beyond the reach of the system. Artificial intelligence, facial recognition, biometric identification, digital currency and constant surveillance are constructing a technological imitation of omniscience—Satan's counterfeit attempt to see everything, record everything and ultimately control everyone. And I'm sure it's just a crazy coincidence, but this is exactly the world we live in right now. Because sports garner the attention of the entire world, the big sporting events are used to broadcast these predictive programming messages. At the 2015 Super Bowl Halftime Show, it was Katy Perry riding a Beast and promoting Black Magic. At the 2020 Halftime Show, we saw Jay-Z and Beyonce dancing in the middle of the All-Seeing Eye throwing Illuminati symbolism. At the 2019 Eurovision, the world watched singer Madonna dressed as the biblical Antichrist, mocking Jesus on the cross. Then, we had the scariest one of them all, at the opening ceremony for the 2012 London Olympics that turned out to be perfect predictive programming for the 2020 COVID Plannedemic. So what happened yesterday at the FIFA World Cup Finals in New Jersey was not only not surprising, it was expected, and they did not disappoint. Today we get you up to speed with global events that are all pointing to the direct fulfillment of Bible prophecy. “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”

    *Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary This conversation centers on resting in what God has already done. The speakers emphasize that believers are not trying to earn God's promises, blessings, love, justification, or calling. These things have already been given through Christ. The real battle is learning to reject the lies of the soul and mind, accept God's truth, and walk out what He has already spoken. The discussion focuses on moving from striving into faith, from condemnation into acceptance, and from self-effort into standing in God's presence. The speakers point to the reality that God has already justified, glorified, blessed, chosen, and prepared His people for His purpose. The believer's part is to yield the will, believe the Word, and allow the Holy Spirit to unfold what God has already placed within. Show Notes Main Theme: Resting in the Finished Work of GodThe conversation opens with the idea that prayer is not always about asking God for what we lack, but believing and speaking from what He has already given.Rejecting Condemnation and AccusationRon points to Romans 8 and the reality that believers have already been justified and glorified. Because of this, accusations and condemnation should not define us.Soaking in the Love of GodThe speakers emphasize that God's love must penetrate beyond the mind and into the soul. The spirit receives God's Word, but the soul and mind often question it.Accepting What God Has Already DoneDavid shares that believers must accept that they are the temple of the Holy Spirit and that God has already brought them into His purpose.Created for This DayKen emphasizes that God has already prepared His people for this time. They were created to speak the Word, build up the family of God, and walk in His kingdom.Entering His RestLois brings in Ephesians, reminding everyone that believers are God's workmanship, created in Christ for good works prepared beforehand.The Battle of the WillMike says the true battle is not with outside circumstances or even Satan, but whether we will submit our will and thinking to God's will and Word.Belief Must Be Walked OutRon explains that belief is more than mental agreement. True belief is proven by walking out the Word of God.Seeing Ourselves as God Sees UsDale shares that God sees us differently than we see ourselves, and when He reveals who we are in Christ, it also changes how we see one another. Key Quotes “All the things that we're asking God for, we're asking amiss because they've already been given to us.” — Ken “Begin to bask in the glory that He's already given us.” — Ron “We reject the lies and accept the truth.” — Ken “At this point, we have to accept what He has already done with us and how He plans to use us to further His kingdom.” — David “You don't have to work your way into stuff any longer.” — Ken “We just need to appropriate what's already done.” — Lois “The true battle is over our will.” — Mike “Do we submit our thinking to His Word, and do we allow Him to transform us?” — Mike “Belief is not something I go, ‘Oh, I believe it.' No, prove to me you believe it. Walk it out.” — Ron “He sees me different than I see myself.” — Dale Scriptural References Romans 8 (30) This supports the theme that believers have already been justified and glorified in Christ. 1 Corinthians 6 (19) David refers to believers being the temple of the Holy Spirit, showing that God already dwells within His people. Ephesians 2 (10) Lois references believers as God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works that were prepared beforehand. Ephesians 1 (3–5) Mike points to the truth that God has blessed believers with every spiritual blessing and predestined them to adoption as sons through Jesus Christ. Hebrews 4 (9–11) This connects with the call to enter God's rest and cease from striving in self-effort. Romans 12 (2) Mike's point about submitting our thinking to the Word connects with being transformed by the renewing of the mind. 2 Corinthians 3 (18) The conversation reflects the truth that God is changing believers into His image as they stand in His presence. Galatians 2 (20) Monnie's statement about being identified with Christ connects with the reality of no longer living by the old self, but by Christ living within. Takeaway The Christian walk is not about striving to become something God has not yet made us. It is about believing, receiving, and walking out what He has already accomplished in Christ.

    The parable of the weeds and the wheat is familiar to most. We have all heard it before. But some may wonder, since we typically do not live an agrarian life in the modern world, if the teaching of this parable is still relevant. As we look closer at the core truth Jesus conveys with this parable, we discover it is extremely relevant.

    United Pentecostal Church of Bourbon , IN

    On Sunday, July 19th 2026, Dylan Cottrill's message centers on a truth that transforms how we view our spiritual stumbles: we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. Drawing from 1 John 2:1-2, we're reminded that while we should strive not to sin, when we do fall, we're not abandoned to shame and guilt. Our Savior serves as our defense attorney, and remarkably, He Himself was the sacrifice for our sins. The sermon beautifully illustrates this through the story of Joshua standing before God in filthy garments while Satan accuses him, only to have the Lord rebuke the accuser and clothe Joshua in clean robes. We discover that confession isn't about informing God of something He doesn't know—it's about agreeing with what He's been saying all along and turning away from what separates us from Him. The crimson worm symbolism is particularly striking: just as this creature willingly climbs a tree to die so its offspring can live, nourished by its crimson substance, Jesus willingly ascended Calvary so we could have new life through His blood. The prodigal son's story reminds us that when we 'come to ourselves' and take even one step toward the Father, He runs to meet us, removing our shame and restoring our position as His children. This isn't a message about staying down—it's about the courage to rise again, knowing we have an advocate who understands our struggles and fights for our souls.

    In 1979, Bob Dylan released a song by this title which (through its lyrics) describes this human reality: You (and I) were created to serve and worship and "it can be the devil or it can be the Lord, but you've got to serve somebody." In this passage, we will see how Satan attempted to get Jesus to serve (and worship) him, by getting Jesus to serve himself. Selfishness is Satanism. We look at how the devil tricks us into breaking God's first command. Then we will respond by intentionally focusing our worship away from ourselves and instead upon the Father, through the Son, by the Holy Spirit.

    Mary and Martha's Lament

    Presented by Jenn Miller Let's look at Mary and Martha. You might be most familiar with these two sisters for their opposite personalities—Martha, being type A and consumed by what needs to get done, and Mary being the one who applauded for resting and sitting at Jesus' feet. All throughout the gospel accounts, these sisters and their brother, Lazarus, offered hospitality to Jesus and became some of his dearest friends. But in John 11, word comes to Jesus that Lazarus is sick, actually very sick. The sisters contacted Jesus out of faith. They knew Jesus was able to heal the sick—they had seen his miracles, and they put their faith in him and called on him to come heal their brother. Jesus' response is quite confusing though. Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. Yet when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days (John 11:5-6). If someone you love is extremely sick, and you have the ability to help, wouldn't you get up and rush to their side? Isn't that what love does? The Bible reassures us of Jesus' love for each of them, and yet, he deliberately chose to stay. And he waited. And Lazarus died. When Jesus finally came to Bethany, Lazarus had been dead four days. As we think through lament, I want you to put yourself in Mary and Martha's shoes for a minute. They were trusting Jesus to heal their brother. They implored him to come. They waited and waited. Perhaps they took a break from tending Lazarus' sick bed to go outside and see if Jesus was coming around the corner. But he wasn't. And these two sisters watched their beloved brother die, wrapped his body, and placed him in a tomb. Imagine what Mary and Martha were feeling. Perhaps you know the intense pain of losing a loved one. This year I suddenly lost a family member that seemed perfectly healthy. The shock was jarring and painful. The death of a loved one is absolutely a reason to lament. And yet, as terrible as losing Lazarus was, I think there was an even greater lament for Mary and Martha. They both spoke to Jesus when he arrived separately and the first thing they said was, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” Do you hear the pain of confusion? Do you hear the notes of disappointment and feelings of betrayal? I think the deeper lament is that these women put their faith and hope in Jesus and were left disappointed. That is not something good Christians like to talk about, but I have experienced those moments. Have you? Have you prayed earnestly in faith and received an entirely different outcome than you expected? Have you committed yourself to teaching your children faithfully only to watch them fall away? Have you tried to live obediently to the Lord and yet you look at your life, and it is not what you imagined it would be like at all? Do you feel like Jesus has let you down? If you feel that way, know you are not alone. Life can be confusing and disorienting. And when it doesn't make sense and you are hurting, come to Jesus. That is what Mary and Martha did, and it was the first step in their healing. They both shared their feeling of bewilderment and even possibly betrayal that Jesus waited to come, chose not to heal Lazarus, and let him die. Satan wants you to hold that hurt and confusion and let it fester into resentment, bitterness, and unbelief. But when you come to Jesus and honestly pour out your heart, however messy or honest it is, that is when Jesus meets us in the lament. And he met Martha and Mary in two very different ways that show his character. First with Martha, Jesus comforts her with the truth of his character. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die” (John 11:25). This was one of Jesus' I am statements, and he chose to reveal himself as the resurrection and the life first to Martha in this moment of deep grief. But he doesn't stop there. Jesus follows this truth with a question. He asks her, Do you believe this? (John 11:26). Friend, in your pain, immersing yourself in the attributes of the Savior is extremely helpful. Jesus is loving. He is your shepherd. He sees and hears your misery. He is powerful to save and works all things for the good of those who love him. But it is not enough just to read these statements. In your pain, Jesus comes to you and asks, “Do you believe this?” Martha could not have possibly understood all that encompassed the truth of Jesus being the resurrection and life. And Jesus didn't expect her to. But with what faith she had in that moment, she responded, Yes, Lord. I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world (John 11:27). When everything in life is chaos and you can't make sense of your pain, hold on to what you do know about Jesus. Asking why is rarely helpful, but choosing to sit in who you know and have already experienced Jesus to be will comfort your soul. Interestingly, Jesus responds very differently to Mary. She comes to him with the exact same words as Martha, Lord…if you had been here, my brother would not have died (John 11:21). Instead of revealing truth to her, Jesus weeps with her. Friend, you have a savior who is moved by suffering and weeps. I don't know about you, but that is so comforting to me! Jesus might have been moved by seeing Mary in such pain or by his own grief or by his hatred of death as an enemy or all of it. Either way, he wept. And Jesus wept even though he knew the end of the story. He waited to let Lazarus die to reveal himself not only as healer but as the one who can resurrect. He knew Lazarus' time in the grave was almost over, but he still wept. Jesus sees your whole story and knows it will turn out for your deliverance, and yet amid your suffering, he comes along side you tenderly. He doesn't rebuke you for a lack of stoic faith or say, buck up. No, he is the almighty savior who understands our weakness and meets us with compassion. That means the world to me. Mary and Martha did receive their brother back, but in the moments of lament, they didn't know the ending. In their lament they were called to believe the truth about Jesus and experience his tender care. And you and I are called to do the same. No matter what the root of our lament is, the Lord invites us to pour out our souls to him, to believe he sees and hears, and to receive his tender care. Because of Jesus' death and resurrection, all who trust in him are promised a gloriously happy ending. But in the meantime, life is hard. May we be women who cling to truth and to the loving care of Jesus himself. Let's pray now to that end. Heavenly Father, you know the burdens and hardships each person reading right now is facing, and none of it is too heavy for you to bear. I pray you would comfort each hurting heart with your tender care. Would you remind each soul of who you truly are—that you are good, that you are working all things to make those who love you more and more into the image of your Son, that you will one day make all wrongs right, that nothing can separate those in Christ from your love. Give us greater faith to believe those truths more and more each day. I entrust each of my fellow lamenting sisters to your perfect care. In Jesus' precious name we pray. Amen.

Click HERE to learn more about this opportunity to sail to better intimacy. From the Bible The Message Paraphrase of 1 Corinthians 7:3–6: Certainly—but only within a certain context. It's good for a man to have a wife, and for a woman to have a husband. Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder. The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality—the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. Marriage is not a place to "stand up for your rights." Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out. Abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it, and if it's for the purposes of prayer and fasting—but only for such times. Then come back together again. Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it. I'm not, understand, commanding these periods of abstinence—only providing my best counsel if you should choose them.

    Questions about the idea that “Satan” is merely the propensity of humankind to commit evil acts, why Satan and the demons would want to keep storing up wrath for themselves if they know they'll be defeated, and whether a “spirit of divorce” can be carried from generation to generation.   What would you say to someone who believes that Satan is not a being but rather the propensity of humankind to commit evil acts? If Satan and the demons know they'll ultimately be defeated and tormented, why would they want to keep storing up wrath for themselves? I've heard Christians talk about a “spirit of divorce," but is that biblical, could it be carried from generation to generation, and does Exodus 20:5 support that view?

    In this episode of It's In the Code, host Dan Miller tackles one of the most provocative questions a believer can ask: Did God lie in the Garden of Eden? Beginning with a listener's question about Genesis and God's warning that Adam and Eve would die if they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, Dan takes a close look at the biblical text itself rather than the assumptions many Christians bring to it. Along the way, he explores how later theological traditions—including original sin, spiritual death, and the identification of the serpent with Satan—have shaped the way this familiar story is understood, often in ways that go beyond what the text actually says. Drawing connections to his previous episode on Job, Dan argues that some of the Bible's most challenging passages become even more unsettling when read carefully and without inherited interpretations. He examines the role of the serpent, the meaning of knowledge, and why difficult questions about scripture are so often discouraged in high-control religious communities. Rather than seeing these questions as signs of weak faith, Dan suggests they emerge from taking the Bible seriously enough to wrestle honestly with its complexities.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: January, 2019Weird Darkness moves through black magic, hauntings, demonology, unsolved death, and government secrecy in this episode, running from the occult roots of Scientology to a Utah military base that has earned the nickname Area 52.It opens with L. Ron Hubbard, the science fiction novelist who founded Scientology, and the claim from his own eldest son — Lafayette Ronald Hubbard, Jr., who left the church in 1959 and renamed himself Ronald DeWolf — that black magic sat at the inner core of the religion. In a 1983 Penthouse interview, DeWolf described a father deeply involved in the occult who did not worship Satan so much as believe he was Satan, the Beast 666 incarnate. The story runs through Hubbard's obsession with Aleister Crowley and the Ordo Templi Orientis, the "moonchild" ritual he and rocket scientist Jack Parsons attempted in Pasadena to conceive an astral child and bring the goddess Babalon into the world, the poltergeist activity that followed at the Parsons house, the alleged OT Level VIII passage in which Hubbard claimed the Antichrist mantle for himself, the numerology hidden in the New Era logo's two sixty-degree triangles, and the shared contempt both Hubbard and Crowley held for psychoanalysis even as both leaned on hypnosis and past-life regression to control their followers.From there the episode digs into Jack Parsons himself — the college-dropout chemist who invented solid rocket fuel, helped found the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and claimed to have summoned Satan at thirteen. Drawing on John Carter's Sex and Rockets: The Occult World of Jack Parsons and Lawrence Wright's Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, and the Prison of Belief, the story follows Parsons through the Pasadena mansion he filled with pagans, artists, and writers; the bonfires that drew police reports from the neighbors; the arrival of Hubbard, who slept with Parsons' girlfriend Betty; the red-headed artist Marjorie Cameron, whom both men decided was Babalon made flesh; Crowley's own disgust at the pair, whom he dismissed as goats in a letter; and the boat-buying scheme in Florida that cost Parsons his last twenty thousand dollars. Parsons died in 1952 handling explosives on his front porch, two years after Dianetics made Hubbard famous.Next comes the Surrency haunting, one of the most heavily witnessed poltergeist cases on record. In October of 1872, sawmill operator Allen Surrency returned to his two-story farmhouse on the edge of the Altamaha River Swamp in Georgia to find tumblers sliding off the slab, crockery shattering on the floor, and bricks, irons, and potatoes falling through the rooms of his own house. The activity never let up: clocks spinning backward, mirrors exploding, utensils bending in the family's hands, a pan of biscuits levitating out of the oven and flying out the back door, hot bricks raining down on his daughter Clementine, an andiron chasing his son across the room and then returning itself to the fireplace. Hundreds of visitors — reporters and a minister among them — watched objects fly in plain view. The haunting followed the family when they moved away, stopped abruptly with Allen's death in 1877, and the house burned down in 1925, leaving nothing behind but the orb of light still reported along the town's railway tracks.The episode then turns to Peter Binsfeld, the sixteenth-century German witch hunter whose enthusiasm for torture was matched by his taste for taxonomy. His De confessionibus maleficorum et sagarum laid out the Seven Princes of Hell — Lucifer for pride, Beelzebub for gluttony, Satan for wrath, Belphegor for sloth, Mammon for greed, Asmodeus for lust, and Leviathan for envy — and argued that each living person is shadowed by a personal demon who knows their habits intimately, the dark counterpart to a guardian angel. Binsfeld held that women were more prone to witchcraft, that girls under twelve and boys under fourteen were usually too young to be guilty, and that anyone who claimed to have seen a witch shapeshift had been deceived by the Devil.The unsolved death of British ufologist Max Spiers follows. Spiers died in Poland on July 16, 2016, days before a scheduled conspiracy conference appearance and shortly after reportedly vomiting two liters of black liquid, having texted his mother that he was in trouble and to investigate if anything happened to him. His death was ruled natural causes. At a pre-inquest review at Guildhall in Sandwich, Kent, in August of 2018, lawyers for his mother Vanessa Bates revealed that his laptop had been wiped clean and his phone's SIM card erased or removed before being returned to the family, with Spiers found dead on the couch of his girlfriend Monika Duval and the four-day inquest set for the Archbishops Palace in Maidstone.The episode closes at Dugway Proving Ground, the 800,000-acre Utah military installation that UFO researchers call Area 52. Founded during the second World War for biological and chemical weapons work, Dugway is best known for the 1968 VX nerve agent test that drifted into Skull Valley and killed thousands of sheep, an incident the Army compensated farmers for without accepting blame. Freedom of Information requests filed by MuckRock founder Michael Morisy surfaced records of entomological munitions — mosquitoes loaded with what the Army called inert pathogens and released over American civilian populations — and of soldiers used as test subjects. The story takes in the 2011 disappearance of Joseph Bushling, whose empty car, hat, and shoes turned up sixty-five miles from the main gate with no body ever found; the runway in the base's southern expansion that never appears on Dugway's own maps; Lockheed engineer Don Phillips and former CEO Ben Rich on flying saucer technology; and Steven Greer's claim in The Sirius Project that trillions in defense funding has been siphoned into a shadow government beyond the reach of the Department of Defense.
