Podcasts about Savior

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260804dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.” Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.” “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered. “Bring them here to me,” he said. Matthew 14:15-17 Bring Him Your “Not Enough” Have you ever sat down with your monthly budget and found that the numbers refuse to cooperate? No matter how many times you add them up, there is more month than money. It’s a helpless feeling to be staring at a problem too large for the available resources. Jesus’ disciples knew that feeling. Thousands of hungry people had followed Jesus to a remote place, and evening was coming. The disciples did the math and proposed the only sensible solution: send everyone away to fend for themselves. Instead, Jesus gave them an impossible assignment: “You give them something to eat.” All they could find among the crowd were five small loaves of bread and two fish. The numbers didn’t add up. But Jesus never intended for his disciples to solve this problem out of their own pockets. He was inviting them to bring their “not enough” to him. When they did, he took that little lunch, gave thanks, and multiplied it until everyone ate their fill—with twelve baskets left over. You and I often do the same math the disciples did. We look at our resources—our money, our time, our strength, our goodness—and conclude they will never be enough. They won’t be. That is especially true of our standing before God. We owe him a debt of perfect obedience that we could never begin to pay. That is why Jesus came. He did not send us away to fend for ourselves. In his compassion, he supplied what we could not—his perfect life and his innocent death—to pay for our sins completely. The Savior who satisfied a hungry crowd with bread has satisfied God’s justice for you. So, bring him your little. Bring him your “not enough.” His supply never runs out. Prayer: Lord Jesus, when my resources run out, teach me to trust your compassion and power to provide everything I need for my body and soul. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

“Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.” (Psalm 1:1–3 NLT) Many years ago, a young man named Billy Sunday placed his faith in Jesus Christ. An older believer then gave Billy some advice that he never forgot. The man said, “Billy, there are three simple rules I wish you would practice in life as a Christian. If you do, no one will ever write the word backslider after your name. Billy, take fifteen minutes each day to let God talk to you. Take fifteen minutes a day to talk to Him. And then spend fifteen minutes a day telling others about the Savior.” Billy Sunday followed this advice and became one of the most powerful evangelists in the history of the church. Billy Sunday recognized the value of moving forward. That’s the central message of Psalm 1: Move forward. “Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do” (verses 1–3 NLT). You’ll notice that the people described in these first few verses aren’t passive or stationary. They understand that making a difference for the Lord involves more than not doing bad things. It also involves moving forward in the right things. That’s why “they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night” (verse 2 NLT). They don’t simply “do their duty” when it comes to God’s Word. They don’t opt for the “hunt and peck” method of reading a little here and a little there with no genuine concern for context. They don’t return to it sporadically and then wonder why it’s not having much of an impact on them. Instead, they delight in Scripture. They meditate on it. They find joy, meaning, purpose, and direction in it. They recognize its wisdom and actively look for ways to apply it to their lives. They ask key questions about the passages they read, questions such as “Is there any sin here for me to avoid?” “Is there any promise for me to claim?” “Is there any victory to gain?” “Is there any blessing to enjoy?” Reading Scripture in this way creates a real sense of anticipation. Instead of treating Bible study like a classroom assignment, we approach it like the treasure hunt that it is. We embrace the awe-inspiring reality that we have access to the words of God Himself—and that those words have the power to change our lives.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260803dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever. Psalm 136:1 His Love Endures Forever Many, if not most, psalms in the Bible were designed to be sung or spoken antiphonally—that is, the first half of each verse is sung by a leader or choir followed by the congregation responding with the second half. If you open your Bible to Psalm 136, you’ll notice that the second half of each of the 26 verses is exactly the same: “His love endures forever.” The entire psalm encourages us to give thanks to the Lord, the one true God, who powerfully created all things and who mercifully provides for his people. And with every mention of the Lord’s many mighty acts, the people interject the refrain: “His love endures forever.” And it’s not just in this psalm. The first time this phrase is found in the Bible is in 1 Chronicles 16, when King David is bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. The people sang and praised God with a psalm that included these same words. “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.” A generation later, in 2 Chronicles 5, when King Solomon completed construction of the temple, a great number of musicians played while the choir sang praise to the Lord: “He is good; his love endures forever.” Someone might ask, “Why the repetition?” But consider why it is that we repeat anything. Usually, because it’s important or because we keep forgetting it—or in this case, both. The Hebrew word translated as love here calls to mind God’s loyalty and grace in dealing with us. Despite our frequent ingratitude and lack of love for God, he is unwaveringly devoted to his love for us, simply because of who he is. In everything he does—starting with the creation of the world, all the way through human history, right down to the way he watches over and provides for us today—God does it out of his commitment to love us. His promise of grace finds its fulfillment in his own Son, Jesus Christ, who came to save us from certain death by taking our punishment upon himself. It is truly a love that endures forever! Prayer: Lord God, you have been good to me in so many ways. Let me never forget your grace but always give you thanks, for your love endures forever. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

“The Savior’s Way” series of lessons considers the New Birth from John 3 examining being born of water and of the Spirit. A powerful lesson concerning salvation.

So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good. — Romans 7:12 When I was a boy, the Ten Commandments were read almost every Sunday at church. The reading seemed long and dour. As I grew older, though, I learned that reading the law in worship is a fitting response of gratitude to God and a guide for spiritual growth.The Ten Commandments have more than one purpose. God's law convicts us of our sin, and it points us to the grace and forgiveness we experience in trusting God's Son, Jesus Christ, as our one and only Savior. When we trust in Jesus and we are no longer under the curse of sin, what happens to the law? In short, the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's perfect will, become a guide, a standard for followers of Jesus.Do you want to know how God wants you to live your daily life in relation to him and with others? Look to the Ten Commandments, which reveal God's holy, righteous, and good will for our everyday lives.We cannot keep God's law perfectly in this life. Though we are forgiven in Christ, we still fail—again and again.But, trusting in God's grace, we can ask forgiveness for our daily sins, and we can pray that by the Holy Spirit's power we will continue to become like our Savior, Jesus Christ, who kept all of God's commands perfectly.  Father God, thank you for your good and perfect will. Help us to strive every day to love and serve you and others. Amen.

John 17:21.2 ”That they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.” We don't want to miss God's plan in sending His Son. His plan was that the love the Father has for His Son, which unites them would be manifested to and through a select group of followers.These followers were so impacted and transformed as they received and believed the words the Father gave Him to give to them, so that they became channels of His life, love, and the gospel in the world. His use of the word world in this case seems to be the same as was John's use of it in 1 John 2:2. “And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.” What is meant is this: In the entire history of the world, God has provided only one way, namely Jesus, for sins to be forgiven and upon whom anyone may believe and be saved. In Jesus' prayer in John 17:21, Jesus was saying to His Father, that throughout the entire remaining history of the world, the community of believers filled and unified by His love, will be the convincing proof to everyone who believes that God sent Jesus as Lord and Savior. A team of 8 guys on mission in Brazil for Global Challenge Expeditions were cruising the Amazon River. They and other passengers slept in hammocks on deck for over a week. They built a relationship with two men, one was an atheist and another was a new ager who believed that the universe is God. Opportunities arose for them to share their testimonies regarding Jesus and for the other two to also share their “testimonies” of “miracles” they had experienced in life. One shared how certain amazing things had happened “by chance” and the other shared how “the universe” provided for Him. They all testified of peace, hope, and faith they had found in Jesus, the universe, and in humanity. Finally, my friend provided the undeniable evidence that Jesus was God in the flesh sent to save mankind. He said, “You have watched us guys for a week. Have you noticed the love we have for each other? That comes from Jesus.” The other two men replied, “We don't have that.” It isn't something humans or the universe can provide. The love that unites believers testifies to the world that God sent Jesus. We live to love with Jesus so the world may believe that God sent Him to be their savior and Lord.

This Sunday, we began a new sermon series through the Gospel of Mark, returning our attention to Jesus and the arrival of God's kingdom.For generations, God prepared the way for His promised kingdom. Then Jesus appeared: the beloved Son, the faithful King, and the Savior who stands with sinners. In Mark 1, Jesus announces that the kingdom of God is at hand and calls ordinary fishermen to leave everything, follow Him, and become fishers of men.The King has come, so none of us can remain neutral. Repent and believe the gospel. Confess your sins and be baptized. Follow Jesus, and call others to follow Him.

Send us Fan MailIn this message from Luke 7:36–50, we encounter one of the most powerful pictures of grace in Scripture—a sinful woman who courageously lays everything at the feet of Jesus. While others saw her past, Jesus saw her heart. Her extravagant worship reminds us that no amount of shame, guilt, or failure can keep us from the forgiveness and love of Christ.In this sermon, we explore the difference between religion that judges and a Savior who restores. Through the parable of the two debtors, Jesus reveals that those who recognize the depth of their forgiveness respond with deeper love and greater worship. Whether your struggles seem "big" or "small," every sin points us to the same need: the grace of Jesus.You'll also discover why shame is never God's voice. The enemy wants us to hide when we fail, but Jesus invites us to run toward Him instead. Romans 8 reminds us that there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ. We don't have to clean ourselves up before coming to Him—we come just as we are, trusting Him to transform us.At Hope Church, we believe everyone is welcome. Whether you've been walking with Jesus for years or you're carrying the weight of yesterday's mistakes, this message is an invitation to bring your brokenness, your questions, and your baggage to the feet of Jesus. Come as you are—but don't leave the same.Join us as we discover what it means to surrender completely, embrace the love of Jesus, and experience the life-changing freedom that only His grace can bring.Support the show

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.     ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!

882 He Told Me Everything I Did, A Guided Christian Meditation on John 4:27-30 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 doing 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 John 4 NIV 27 Just then his disciples returned and were surprised to find him talking with a woman. But no one asked, "What do you want?" or "Why are you talking with her?" 28 Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people, 29 "Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Messiah?" 30 They came out of the town and made their way toward him. NLT 27 Just then his disciples came back. They were shocked to find him talking to a woman, but none of them had the nerve to ask, "What do you want with her?" or "Why are you talking to her?" 28 The woman left her water jar beside the well and ran back to the village, telling everyone, 29 "Come and see a man who told me everything I ever did! Could he possibly be the Messiah?" 30 So the people came streaming from the village to see him. Reflection on Scripture: This woman did not know about the cross or resurrection. She had an almost nonexistent Christology. She did not know exactly what the Messiah would do. It is pretty clear she didn't know Jesus was even the Savior, as that wasn't a common Jewish understanding of Messiah. The thing that makes this story so meaningful to me is what she does with the information she has. In John 9 Jesus tells the Pharisees would not be guilty if they were truly blind but they claimed to see. This woman was still blind in very important ways of understanding what Jesus would do for her, yet her approach to the truth, to Jesus as the way, was phenomenal. She believed and trusted Jesus. It can be valuable to look for the lessons in the scriptures that are for us also. Each one of us has more information than this woman. We have the advantage of having the full account of Jesus and his saving effort. We get to see stories of him in so many situations teaching. We hear his full message of love to many different situations. We have the stories of His miracles. We see the impact of the cross and the resurrection. And what do we do with that information? This woman had such limited information about Jesus, yet she invested herself in that message. The believed Jesus and attempted to share that. How blessed we are that we get to live in a time where Jesus is known across the globe. Certainly not be every person, but to billions of people. Sometimes I have thought that it would be amazing to live in the time of Jesus to get to see him, yet I think we are so blessed now to have a much deeper understanding of Jesus. The question that remains, what do we do with that knowledge? The most important knowledge of all? Many times we see  Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit.

Come let the scriptures guide us to the One who is the Living Word, and let's open our hearts to the life that only He can give. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He knows everything, and he loves us just the same. Are you thirsty? He knows. And you have a kind and merciful Savior who's making a point of pursuing your heart to give you the water that will quench your desperate thirst. So drink well of that water. Remember that your Messiah is kind and he pursues your heart. Knowing everything you've ever done and loving you just the same. Live in the light and joy of him and drink well. Thirsty? This woman was, and she was willing to admit it. She wasn't too proud to admit that she was thirsty. Yes, teacher, give me this water, she said. She knew that she was dying of thirst, that unless something changed, she would die. After five husbands, she was dying inside. But Jesus offers her this living water. Water that truly satisfies. Jesus mercifully offers those who are dying of thirst living water, relief from the endless cycle of sin and shame, sin and shame, sin and shame, relief from our past, forgiveness. She says, he told me everything I've ever done. And although these words were not written, you could complete the statement with these words: And he loved me just the same. It was this radical acceptance and forgiveness from a kind and merciful Messiah that delivered her from her desperate thirst. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

Why settle for temporary freedom when Jesus offers freedom that lasts? In this message, Joel Holm walks through Judges 3 and shows how forgetting God leads us back into bondage, while remembering our Savior, fully repenting, and trusting our true Deliverer leads to lasting freedom.

Jesus Christ is our unbreakable lifeline, offering hope, strength, and security in every season of life. Hebrews 6:18-20 reminds us that through Christ we have a steadfast hope anchored in God's presence. Discover why prayer is more than a habit—it's our direct connection to the Savior who never leaves us or turns us away. Life often tempts us to look for comfort in people, achievements, or temporary things when we feel overwhelmed. In today's devotional, Alexis A. Goring reflects on how everyday experiences reveal a deeper truth: while people and circumstances may fail us, Jesus remains our constant source of hope and strength. Through prayer, we can bring every fear, burden, and unanswered question directly to Him. Highlights: Discover what Hebrews 6:18-20 teaches about the hope we have in Christ. Learn why prayer is our spiritual lifeline during difficult seasons. Be encouraged to depend on Jesus instead of people or temporary comforts.

Goring Bible Reading: “We who have run for our very lives to God have every reason to grab the promised hope with both hands and never let go. It’s an unbreakable spiritual lifeline, reaching past all appearances right to the very presence of God where Jesus, running on ahead of us, has taken up his permanent post as high priest for us, in the order of Melchizedek.” - Hebrews 6:18-20 (MSG) A few years ago, while waiting to be seen in a hospital, I stepped into the women’s restroom and saw something that inspired this devotional: a lifeline. It was a red label with white-inked words instructing me to pull the attached red string if I needed help. The sight of this made me think about how Jesus Christ is our lifeline. Earlier this year, I saw a reel via Instagram of a young girl around age 11 or 12. She was captured on camera rushing onto the concert stage before security could catch her and embracing her favorite singer. Prior to this, I could see that the singer was performing at a calm, steady pace as she walked across the stage, holding the microphone near her face. When the young girl rushed onto the stage, the singer wasn’t fazed. She let the young girl wrap her arms around her waist and rest her head on her midsection as she leaned in for a tight hug that obviously meant the world to her. This girl received a 10-second embrace before security reached her and carried her away. When I saw this reel, it spoke volumes to me because it helped me realize several things. I realized that I have been there before because I have had favorite singers over the years—both secular and Christian—and I know what it’s like to cope with their music to the point where it feels like your favorite singer and their songs are your lifeline. When feeling sad or depressed, I would listen to a song that served as catharsis for my feelings, working it out of my system until I felt better. It was obvious to me that the singer in the Instagram reel was that young girl’s lifeline. Her music must have brought this girl through tough times and inspired her heart. Whether feeling happy or sad, this singer’s songs were obviously the soundtrack to her fans’ lives. It was obvious that she loved this musician with all her heart. It was also clear that this singer appreciated her fans because she let this girl hug her for more than a second without pushing her away. Jesus Christ also never pushes us away. And unlike any human—famous singer or not—He is our true lifeline. Only Jesus can save our souls. And He gave us a beautiful way to reach Him as our lifeline. That gift is prayer. I follow a page on Instagram that’s hosted by Ellie Mont. Last year, she said something very profound about prayer being our lifeline. These are a few quotes from her post on Instagram that support my devotional message today: First, she acknowledges that life can be hard for most people. Mont said, “Life often feels like a series of challenges and roadblocks that drain our strength. We try to be strong, to figure it all out on our own, but sometimes it just feels like too much. In those moments, we must remember we do not walk alone.” Second, she reminds us that Jesus walks with us. She also delivers a powerful line about the gift God gave us to reach Him and communicate with Him. Mont said, “Prayer is more than a religious habit or a last resort. It is a lifeline. It is a personal conversation with the God who created you, who sees everything you face, and who cares about every detail of your life. When you cannot handle the weight of your problems, you can bring them to the One who can. God does not ask you to be perfect. He asks you to come to Him just as you are.” Third, Mont reminds us that God wants to hear our hearts no matter how we feel or how messy it seems. She said, “You can be honest with Him. You can tell Him your fears, your doubts, your confusion, and your pain. There is nothing too small or too big for God to handle. He is not bothered by your questions or your tears. He welcomes them. He is a Father who wants to help you and walk with you through every season.” Finally, Mont gives us a word of encouragement for when we feel too discouraged to pray. She said, “Don’t let discouragement silence your voice. Do not let fear steal your hope. Keep praying. Keep trusting. God hears every word, even the ones you cannot say out loud. He sees your heart, and He is working even when you do not see it. You are not alone. You are not forgotten. You are not powerless. You are loved by a God who listens.” In closing, I’d like to say: Be careful not to make a human or anything that is not God your god or your lifeline, because there is only one true God and one way to heaven. The way is Jesus Christ (John 14:6). He is our lifeline. We need to cling to Christ more than we cling to anybody or anything else.

There is nothing wrong with bringing your needs and petitions before God. But in today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds believers that when prayer does not begin with worship and adoration, we miss the transforming power of time spent in God's presence. Dr. Youssef shares four blessings of the praise-filled life. First, praise reveals our true spiritual condition, because Jesus said the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. When we praise God for His salvation, we are declaring our trust in the Gospel and our confidence that we belong to Him. Second, praise reinforces our personal destiny. When we focus only on earthly troubles, we lose sight of our royal position as co-heirs with Christ. But when we bless the Lord daily for who He is and what He has done, our hearts are lifted from present problems to eternal glory. Third, praise reestablishes God's reign in our hearts. Psalm 22 tells us that God is enthroned on the praises of His people. When we praise His name, character, and attributes, we proclaim, “You are my sovereign authority. You are my King.” Finally, praise reinforces our relationship with the Lord. Worship turns our eyes away from self-centeredness and back to the greatness of God's grace. As we dwell on His strength, mercy, and unchanging love, we grow in humility, joy, and usefulness for His Kingdom. Pray with me. Lord God, thank You for the power of praise to draw me closer to You, my Savior and Lord. You alone are worthy of all my worship. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

(1) True comfort flows from the gospel; (2) True comfort flows from the preincarnate Savior; (3) True comfort flows from the incarnate Savior; (4) True comfort flows from the exalted Savior.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260802dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, [Jesus] gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children. Matthew 14:19-21 With Jesus There is Always More With Jesus, there is always more. More than five thousand people were fed with just five loaves and two fish. And there was more food left over than they had at the beginning. This miracle is a big deal. Other than Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, it’s the only miracle recorded in all four gospels. The repetition means Jesus really wants us to know about it. Why? Jesus teaches us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). In other words, Christians are to trust God to provide. And what Jesus teaches, he demonstrates by feeding the five thousand. He takes care of us and provides everything we need. This is a simple lesson to learn, but it is difficult to believe. Your sinful nature wants you to think that you take care of yourself. The devil does not want you to trust God. He wants you to trust yourself and say, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me” (Deuteronomy 8:17). But is that true? Who gives you time to work? Who gives you the strength to work? Who gives you the skills to work? “Remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Jesus doesn’t work miracles to flaunt his power. He works miracles to show that he is God Almighty in human flesh. Jesus gives health and wealth because that is what Jesus does—he gives. He provides his life, death, and resurrection for your salvation. If he can do that, he can do something as simple as provide daily bread. Because with Jesus, there is always more. Jesus’ compassion for you knows no bounds. No need is too impossible for Christ to meet. No sin is too big for Jesus to forgive. You can trust him with anything and everything! Prayer: Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Day 1 of our story Today's story takes place in Caesarea - Acts 10:1-8. Cornelius, a Roman soldier, a Centurion, lives there. (Pastor shares pictures of this city, still visible today!) Cornelius was one who worshiped the God of Israel but was not a full convert. He and his family were devout and God-fearing.  Then he receives a vision of an angel. The angel tells him to bring a man from Joppa named Simon known as Peter. We see Cornelius respond immediately to what the angel told him to do.    Day 2  Story moves location to Joppa where Cornelius' servant and one of his soldiers are headed - Acts 10:9-23a. Meanwhile, Peter goes up on the roof of the house he is at and goes into a trance and sees the heavens open and a sheet with all kinds of 4-footed animals, reptiles and birds. (Unclean animals according to the Torah) Then a voice tells him to eat them, but Peter says, I've never eaten anything impure or unclean.  I've obeyed the Torah!  The response from heaven, three times was, "Do not call anything pure that God has made clean." And the sheet was taken back into heaven. While Peter was wondering about the meaning of the vision, the men Cornelius sent found him. The Spirit tells Peter to go downstairs to the men that were sent.  They tell Peter about the vision Cornelius had seen and Peter invites them in.   Day 3 Now our story goes on the road- Act 10:23b.  Peter and some witness head, with Cornelius' servant and soldier, to Caesarea.   Day 4 They arrive in Caesarea - Acts 10:24-48. (Pastor shares more pics of the area) Cornelius has a crowd of people gathered at his home to hear Peter when he arrives. Peter knows he's on God's mission: "You are aware that it is against our law for a Jew to associate with or visit a Gentile. But God has shown me I should not call anyone impure or unclean." Cornelius retells his vision and says now they are in the presence of God to hear everything Peter has to tell them. Peter responds that he now realizes how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation those who know the Good News of Jesus Christ, Lord of ALL. He recounts the Gospel story of Jesus, He tells of the Savior's Good News and all that believe in Him receive forgiveness of sins through His name. Then suddenly the Holy Spirit fell on all of them, including the Gentiles. They were baptized in Jesus' name and ask Peter to say for a few more days.   What do we learn from this story?   Then + Now God's Agenda - God sets the agenda for His people, for individuals and for human history. God is fulfilling the New Covenant - That the day would come when the NATIONS would come to God. These are new covenant times! God Shows No Partiality - it is easy to be in our own groups and only see people like us and avoid people who don't fit our mold. But Jesus died for ALL. We are called to reach the world - therefore no partiality - God wants them all. Jesus is LORD - He is the New Covenant. Will we acknowledge His Lordship? He is the judge of the living and the dead. He is the Messiah, the Savior of the Nations, the Anointed Son of God who gave His life for all, rose, ascended and is coming back. Spirit Guided Life - God is not in a box, He sets the agenda, not us. Everything needs to be the way He deems it!   Pastor closes with the questions: Are you listening to God's Agenda for your life? Do Jesus and the Scriptures inform your daily living and actions? Do you sense and heed the Holy Spirit's promptings?   This week's READING ASSIGNMENT: Acts chapter 10 - 11.    Now What?

“Fear Not: The Lion Has Overcome”No More Fear: Living Life with a Living SaviorRevelation 4:1-5:14We live in a world filled with fear—fear for our kids and marriages, fear of sickness and job loss, fear of the future and the headlines, even fear of death itself. Many people feel trapped by these fears, either trying to control everything around them or resigning themselves to the thought, “That's just how I am.”But the resurrection of Jesus speaks directly into those fears.In this series, we will explore what it means to live life in light of a living Savior. If Christ had not been raised, many of our fears would be completely justified. But because the tomb is empty and Jesus is alive, everything has changed. His resurrection gives us a new foundation for our faith, a new identity as His people, and a new way to face the fears that shape our lives.Again and again, we can return to this central truth: because Jesus is alive, fear does not have the final word. Through the power of the resurrection, we can move from being gripped by fear to being grounded in the perfect love of a risen Savior.

In Acts 13 the Spirit moves the church from local safety in Antioch to global mission, sending Barnabas and Saul after worship, fasting, and prayer. In this message, Matthew talks through how the gospel advances through a unique leadership team, Spirit-directed obedience, and direct confrontation with darkness, never staying bottled or comfortable. Paul then preaches a clear, historical, verifiable message centered on Jesus as the promised Savior who brings forgiveness and freedom the law could never give. The gospel always demands a verdict—some rejoice and believe while others resist—and it still does the same today. Will you keep open hands, worship and fast with expectation, and proclaim the only story that saves?

MAKE READY THE WAY. Isaiah 40:3; Matthew 3:1–3 KJV Before God sent His Son, He first sent a voice calling people to prepare their hearts. Isaiah's prophecy was fulfilled through John the Baptist, proving that God's Word never fails. Just as the roads were prepared for the arrival of an earthly king, our hearts must be prepared through repentance, faith, and surrender for the coming of Jesus Christ. This message challenges believers to remove spiritual obstacles, listen to God's voice, and receive Christ as King while His invitation is still extended. It is a timeless call to revival, readiness, and wholehearted devotion to the Savior. God prepares the heart that is willing to receive the King. If God says it once, we should listen. If God says it twice, we should pay even closer attention.

Podcast Title:When Heaven Doesn't Make Sense | Anchored in Troubled Waters | Season 9 Episode 32Podcast Description:Just after Peter confessed that Jesus was the Christ, he found himself resisting the very plan of the Savior he had confessed. When Jesus spoke of suffering, death, and resurrection, Peter could not understand why the cross was necessary. In this message, we explore what happens when God's plan does not match our expectations, why sincere love can still misunderstand His will, and how faith continues trusting when heaven does not yet make sense.Alternate Podcast Description 2:Peter loved Jesus, but he could not accept a plan that included suffering and death. Yet the cross Peter wanted removed was the very cross through which Jesus would save him. This message examines the difference between human perspective and heaven's purpose, and reminds us that faith is not believing everything makes sense. Faith is trusting Jesus when it does not.Alternate Podcast Description 3:What do we do when God's plan looks painful, confusing, or completely different from what we expected? In Matthew 16, Peter tries to correct Jesus because he cannot understand the cross. Through this passage, we discover that God is not confused when we are, His silence is not His absence, and Friday never gets the final word when Sunday is coming.

Can our religious traditions ever distract us from Christ Himself? In this sermon from Romans 9, we reflect on Paul's deep sorrow for Israel and the danger of valuing spiritual heritage without a living relationship with Jesus. Our traditions, worship, and faith practices are gifts meant to lead us to Christ—not replace Him. May we be rich in both our heritage and in the transforming presence of our Savior.

We continue our series of messages out of the Book of Colossians.  Through this overview of Colossians, we will be encouraged to live as that new creation Jesus created us to be when we received Him as Savior.  Today, we learn more about Paul's warnings and counsel to the Church regarding false teachings and how we shouldn't mix it up in our faith!.  #fsbccoalinga #coalinga #fsbcsermon Contact us at TheWordInfusion@gmail.com with your comments, questions or praises.  Let us know how our podcast has blessed, encouraged or helped you.  Join us on our Facebook pages at http://www.facebook.com/fsbccoalinga & http://www.facebook.com/..  Help us to grow a community that infuses the Word of God into their lives each day.  Follow us on Twitter @TheWordInfusion or @fsbccoalinga .  To support this ministry click on: https://giving.myamplify.io//app/giving/fsbccoalinga or copy and paste it into your web browser.

In our lesson today, Paul preaches that the gospel words of life demanded that believers worship only Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Many people, when presented with the gospel message, believe that they can just add Jesus to the mix of gods and religious practices that they maintain.  Yet, the Bible is clear that it is not Jesus and anything, it is Jesus only.  Jesus died for us, and that is the redeeming claim of His Lordship over those who will call Him Savior.  Christ both died and rose for us.  In those two actions we see the redeeming claim and the resurrection conquest.  When He died, He gave Himself for us, but when He rose, He gave Himself to us to live within us.   This means three things to believers: First, it means our total submission.  We do not take Jesus as just our “Savior,” we can only take Him as our “Lord and Savior.”  Christ is Lord of our all, or He is not our Lord at all.  We are surrendered to Jesus Christ completely and exclusively. Second, it means His absolute ownership of all that you possess.  We have been purchased by Jesus, and His precious blood was the price that He paid.  As a believer, Jesus owns us and all that we have.  Jesus is not simply the owner of a church member's tithe.  He doesn't just own 10 percent of a Christian's wealth.  He owns it all.  The tithe is simply a tangible expression of that.  It is a symbol of all our resources, all our time, all our intellect, all our relationships, and all our deepest desires.   The Third thing it means is unquestioned obedience.  Being a Christian means total obedience in every area, our work, our witness, our friendships, our families, and our recreation.  The flesh may fear that kind of obedience.  Yet, how foolish that is to fear the One who died for us.  Jesus only wants for us, what we would want for ourselves, if we could only look at things from His perspective.   Click on the link below to hear a lesson on Paul's teaching at Ephesus.

I hope to share more about thetrip in the days ahead. Nowlet's return to our study in Philippians chapter 4. Last week, before we left,we looked at verse 18 where Paul wrote, "But I have all, and abound: Iam full..." The generous gift from the Philippian believers had methis present needs. Paul described their offering as "an odor of a sweetsmell, a sacrifice acceptable, well pleasing to God." Their gift was notmerely money given to a missionary. It was an act of worship offered to GodHimself. Thatbrings us to one of the most familiar promises in all of Scripture. Verse 19says, "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches inglory by Christ Jesus." This verse has been quoted thousands of times,but sadly it is often quoted apart from its context. Notice first that thispromise begins with two wonderful words: "My God." Paul is notspeaking merely about God in a general sense. He is speaking about the God whomhe knew personally, trusted completely, and had depended upon throughout everycircumstance of life. This was the God who had met Paul's needs in prison, onmissionary journeys, through persecution, hunger, shipwrecks, and countlesshardships. Paulcould confidently say, "My God shall supply." Notice also thatPaul does not simply say God can supply our needs. He says God shall supply.This is a promise based on God's faithfulness, not our circumstances. But wemust remember who this promise was originally given to. Paul is speaking tobelievers who had sacrificially given to support the work of God. They hadinvested in the Gospel. They had shared in Paul's ministry. They had met hisneeds when few others had done so. In a sense, Paul is saying, "You havetaken care of God's servant. Now God will take care of you." Thatsame principle is found throughout Scripture. Jesus said in Luke 6:38, "Give,and it shall be given unto you." And in 2 Corinthians chapters 8 and9, Paul teaches that God blesses generous believers so they may continue toabound in every good work. Notice something else. Paul does not promise thatGod will supply all our greeds. He promises to supply all our needs. Ourheavenly Father knows the difference. Sometimes what we think we need is reallyonly something we desire. But God, in His infinite wisdom, always knows exactlywhat is best for His children. He never fails to provide what is necessary toaccomplish His will in our lives. ThenPaul tells us the measure of God's provision: "According to His richesin glory by Christ Jesus." He does not give out of His riches, asthough handing us a small portion. He gives according to His riches. Theresources of heaven are unlimited because our God is unlimited. Every blessingwe receive ultimately comes through one source—Jesus Christ. Every spiritualblessing, every answered prayer, every provision of grace, every daily need issupplied through our Savior. AsI reflect on our mission trip this past week, I am reminded again that Godtruly does supply every need. He supplied the people. He supplied the strength.He supplied the protection. He supplied the opportunities. He supplied theresources. Once again, He proved Himself faithful. And dear friend, He is justas faithful today in your life. If you belong to Him, you can trust Him. Walkwith Him. Serve Him. Be generous toward His work. Then leave your needs in Hiscapable hands.

We know that quiet, cold panic in the gut. You wake up in the dead of night, feeling completely unwound while exhaustion leeches every drop of strength from your bones. You have been running hard, trying to stay three steps ahead of a past that threatens to crash over you like a dark, suffocating wave. Maybe the wreckage behind you wasn't caused by someone else, but by your own bad decisions, your own desperate scheming, and your own exhausting hustle. You wonder if you have to fix the mess, pay off your moral debt, or stop running before God will ever take a step toward you. In this opening message of our series, BLACK SHEEP: The One God Pursues, Pastor Steve McKenzie walks through the dirt and badlands of Genesis with Jacob—a self-made fugitive who collapsed into the desert with nothing to his name but a cold stone for a pillow. Jacob wasn't looking for a holy encounter; he was a liar on the run. Yet right there in the dust, heaven opened up, and grace ambushed him. God does not stand at the top of a distant ladder shouting down terms for a business contract; through Jesus, the true ladder bridged from heaven to earth, God comes down into our wreckage. If you are weary from managing the outcome, fighting for control, or hiding behind a mask, drop your guard. Stop the fight, wrap your arms around the Savior who was broken for you, and discover the sweet relief of a God who pursues you long before you ever think to turn around.

John 6:1-15 The Sufficiency of the Savior

The sermon explores the feeding of the five thousand in John chapter six, emphasizing that Jesus is more than sufficient to meet human needs. It highlights four key discoveries about Christ: His perception of our needs before we recognize them, His ability to use small offerings for great purposes, His provision of abundance beyond expectation, and His ultimate purpose as a spiritual Savior rather than an earthly king. The preacher contrasts the crowd's desire for material blessings with the deeper need for salvation through faith in Jesus. The message encourages believers to trust in God's provision, practice frugality, and love Christ for who He is rather than just what He can do.

August 02 2026 Sunday Who Jesus Made You To Be / Week 37 / T. Stacy Hayes #findoutwhoyouare My Vision My vision is to teach the world Who They Are In Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior! To Teach them what the Bible says about them and who they have been made to be in the promises of God's Word. This changed my life years ago and completely transformed me from a person full of doubt, fear and unbelief to a strong confident Christian that knows I can do anything through Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. And I'm determined to teach the world what God has taught and commissioned me to teach and that is His Word.  That commission takes me to jails and detention centers weekly along with other open doors at many churches and ministries that are wanting to teach these important truths to the world. My podcast goes out 6 days a week to help the people I am ministering to grow in the truths that God has taught me for many years now. This podcast is free to all that want to listen and grow strong in who God has made them to be in Christ Jesus their Lord and Savior.

The tassels have turned, the extra-long twin bed sheets have been purchased, and the warm summer nights are running out. College move-in day is coming, and no matter how ready, eager, or excited a young person appears, there is almost always a mind quietly running through doubts, what-ifs, and questions about what the future actually holds. Even good change can spark anxiety. And in that uncertainty, one of the most irreplaceable gifts a parent, mentor, or advocate can offer is simply the assurance that their hand is extended — that there is a safe place to return to when the road ahead gets complicated. First Samuel 16 captures the beginning of a bond between Samuel and David that would prove to be exactly that kind of gift years later. Samuel anointed the young shepherd boy who would one day be king, seeing not outward appearance but what God saw — a heart fully devoted to Him. And when David's life unraveled, when Saul's jealousy became a death threat and David had nowhere to turn, he went to Samuel. Not because he had to, but because Samuel was someone he could trust when he did not know what to do next. That is the role God calls us to play in the lives of young people — not hand-holders, but steady, available, trustworthy presences who offer guidance and shelter when the world grows complicated. Whether it is a care package, a timely text, or a vulnerably shared testimony, God uses the small faithful acts of those who show up to shape the hearts of the young people He has entrusted to our care. Today's Bible Verse "For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart."— 1 Samuel 16:7, ESV Ponder Today Even confident, eager young people carry hidden doubts and fears. No matter how ready a college student appears on the outside, they are still navigating insecurity and uncertainty within. Knowing a trusted person is available makes all the difference. The most powerful thing you can offer is a steady, available presence. Samuel did not micromanage David's journey. He was simply someone David could call on and trust when things fell apart. That kind of availability is a profound gift to any young person. Small, Spirit-prompted acts carry more weight than we realize. A care package, a text, a shared testimony offered at the right moment — when God nudges you toward a young person in your life, trust that He has an intentional purpose for that nudge. Our greatest prayer for the young people we love is that they would call God their Father. More than academic success, professional achievement, or personal happiness, we want to see them surrender their lives to Jesus Christ and become the men and women of God He crafted them to be. A Prayer for You Today Father God, thank You for the young people in our lives. We recognize what an accomplishment it is as they venture into the next stage of life. We recall our own days of feeling nervous, curious, and hopeful all at once, and we lift up these young hearts before You. Make us keenly aware of how we can be the hands and feet of Jesus to them, not only today but in the weeks and years ahead. Move us to share our testimonies vulnerably so that no young person ever feels that no one understands or that they are completely alone. And more than anything else, move in their lives, hearts, and minds that they may call You their Father and surrender to Your Son, Jesus Christ, as their Savior. We do not take lightly the calling to be present in their lives. In Jesus' holy name, Amen.

What must I do to be saved? That question is the subject of much debate and much confusion as you might expect. But in our lesson today Paul answers that questionwith plain, unmistakable clarity. He says, "...if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." There's nothing confusing in that statement. A child can understand it, and anyone can do it. He's telling us that God has already done all the work. He has provided everything we need for salvation and now requires of us only that we confess and believe, assuring us that if we do we will most certainly be saved. So why is that so hard for so many people? All the work has been done, and the response required of us is easily understood and quite doable, yet something inside the human heart still wrestles against it. Apparently, being saved is easy, but getting the human heart to take those steps is not. Confessing a Lord requires humility, a quality not initially present in most of us. And believing in a resurrected Savior means acknowledging my own desperate need and accepting as fact the most profound miracle imaginable. So the steps I need to take are simple, but preparing my heart to take them is not. Paul isn't offering us mere words to recite here. Salvation doesn't come from a superficial prayer. He's inviting us to make two deep heartfelt decisions... and to continue in those decisions for a lifetime: To confess Jesus as our Lord and to live out the implications of that confession, and to cling to Him as our risen Savior, trusting that He forgives us and is our righteousness no matter what condemnation and shame try to come our way.

Episode 239Bonkers - 18Muslims try to shut down Christian evangelism, a former lieutenant governor commits murder-suicide, scientists just can't let go of millions of years despite evidence, and a sad generational case in Trinidad all remind us of the desperate need for evangelism and ministry to the lost all across the globe. Political and social commentary can be made one way or the other, but Jesus Christ and Him crucified is the only truth that can defeat Islam, nihilism, evolution and millions of years, and the destructive power of sin. He was buried and was raised on the third day, and He has promised that whosoever believes in Him has eternal life. So when we talk to our family, friends, and neighbors about His power to save, we can share real hope and true help. Sometimes it results in hard truths that are counter to our current culture; we can expect to be ignored, mocked, or perhaps even attacked for it, but we simply cannot leave the world to itself without the Savior. The least we can do is try to reach them with the gospel because this world has gone bonkers.Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Apple Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://cutt.ly/mga8A77⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podnews: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠See all our platforms: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://removingbarriers.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact us:Email us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://removingbarriers.net/contact⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Financially support the show: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://removingbarriers.net/donate⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Affiliates:Book Shop: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Christian Books . com: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Fastmail: ⁠⁠https://join.fastmail.com/8e23c12b⁠⁠See all our affiliates: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://removingbarriers.net/affiliates⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Notes:Mosque attempt to ban Christian evangelists: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/court-overturns-mosques-attempt-to-ban-christian-evangelists-from-sharing-the-gospel-just-outside/ar-AA20WcCu Justin Fairfax killed his estranged wife: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/former-virginia-lt-gov-justin-fairfax-kills-wife-self-divorce-police-rcna33212320-Million-Year-Old Rhino Fossil: https://scitechdaily.com/20-million-year-old-rhino-fossil-rewrites-evolutionary-history8-year-old tells: https://trinidadexpress.com/newsextra/8-year-old-tells-19-year-old-mother-she-was-being-raped/article_a9ae3960-01bb-4bdf-b083-61b4def19859.htmlTransgender Baby Killer: https://reduxx.info/exclusive-transgender-baby-killer-released-into-indiana-community-30-years-before-the-end-of-his-55-year-sentenceRegistering her pet Boxer to vote: https://nypost.com/2026/04/18/us-news/california-woman-charged-after-registering-dog-to-vote-says-it-was-a-test/
