    Together, with Fr. Mike, we explore the nature of man's first sin or our “freedom put to the test.” Fr. Mike unpacks the importance of us understanding that freedom is not the power to “do what we want,” but rather, the power to “do what I ought.” Though the story of the first sin is that of our first parents, Fr. Mike emphasizes that we still repeat the grave error of the first sin in our own lives by preferring our own perceived “goods” over the “goods” of our Creator and Father in heaven. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 396-401.

    It's Witness Wednesday! Students at Georgia Tech have their worldviews tested as Todd Friel brings the biblical Christian faith to bear on issues like the afterlife, morality, our conscience, and our ultimate hope. Have you ever wondered how you'd approach someone on the street with the truth of the gospel? Wonder no longer - join Todd to learn how you can evangelize lovingly, truthfully, and effectively. Segment 1 • Orrin says he's a Christian—but struggles to define his purpose in life beyond career success. • He claims he's a “good person,” then wrestles with Scripture's claim that no one is good. • Orrin is forced to examine whether he's truly born again—or just culturally Christian. Segment 2 • French student rejects organized religion—but concedes design may imply a Designer. • Confronted with the moral law: Are you good by God's standard—or just by your own? • Hears the gospel clearly contrasted with every other religion: “Do” vs. “Done.” Segment 3 • Professing Christian claims Jesus is the “tipping point”—but hesitates when truth becomes exclusive. • Todd presses to explain why Christianity alone is true—and why other faiths are wrong. • The gospel is made painstakingly clear: We go to heaven by faith—not because we're “good.” Segment 4 • Georgia Tech student accepts design logic—but questions who designed the Designer. • Claims to be “generally good”—until conscience is examined under God's law. • Hears a direct appeal: justice demands payment—but mercy offers substitution. ___ Thanks for listening!

    In Part 2 of this deep-dive investigation, Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew “Super Sleuth” Soncrant continue their examination of La Luz del Mundo (“Light of the World”) by moving beyond history into the movement's theology and Christology. Joined again by researcher and author Luis Carlos Reyes  @Mopar440HP  team unpacks the doctrinal framework that sustains one of the largest and most controversial apostle-centered movements in the world. This episode carefully analyzes La Luz del Mundo's rejection of historic Trinitarianism, its Oneness-influenced understanding of God, and its redefinition of the person and work of Jesus Christ.  What does LLDM actually teach about the incarnation? How do they interpret the Son of God?  And how does their theology position the “living apostle” as the necessary mediator of salvation in the present age?  The discussion exposes how LLDM's doctrine of “election” reshapes the Gospel itself—placing apostolic authority functionally above Scripture and reframing salvation as loyalty to a man rather than faith in Christ alone. Jeremiah, Andrew, and Luis contrast these teachings with historic Christian orthodoxy, highlighting the theological fault lines that separate LLDM from biblical Christianity.

    This episode reframes how we think about love and relationships by contrasting fragile, contract-style arrangements with the resilient, biblical model of covenant. Drawing from marriage research, Scripture, and decades of walking with couples in crisis, J. Warner Wallace explains why seeing marriage (and other key relationships) as covenants radically changes how you date, marry, and relate—whether you are single, engaged, or married.​ You'll hear why people who "love marriage" itself tend to have stronger, more sacrificial relationships, how your marriage (or singleness) is always preaching something to the watching world, and why thinking of relationships as contracts actually trains us to look for exit clauses instead of opportunities to serve. The episode unpacks the idea of a 100–0 covenant mindset—giving 100% with 0% demand in return—as an expression of a deeper covenant with Jesus, and shows how this posture can transform conflict, expectations, and long-term commitment.

That might sound like a modern idea—broadcasting—but it's much older than radio or television. Broadcasting originally described scattering seeds wide and far, casting them broadly upon the earth. In much the same way, Jesus describes the message of God's kingdom: it is broadcast, sent out to as many as will hear. But as we see in today's reading, it is not enough merely to receive the seed. There must be a certain kind of readiness—a heart that is prepared, the right disposition of spirit—to take in this life-giving message. Jesus says we must have ears to hear, because the world is filled with static, with distractions, with spiritual enemies and inner desires that threaten to drown out the voice of God. Each of us faces barriers—whether it's the cares of life, the lure of wealth, or just the stubbornness of our hearts. There is an old proverb: when the student is ready, the teacher will arrive. Jesus is telling us much the same: that there must be readiness of heart to receive, understand, and respond to his words. But those open ears and receptive hearts aren't the result of our own goodness, of our piety or our accomplishments. Far more often, they're the fruit of our brokenness and failure. It's the humble, contrite, broken heart that finds itself finally ready to hear—and respond to—the broadcasted message of God. There is something about being broken that tunes our ears and softens our hearts so that we finally understand God's invitation. If you hear his voice today, that voice whispering, "I am with you," do not harden your heart. Respond. Let him heal. Let him mend. Let him sit with you right where you are, in this very moment. That is my prayer for my own soul, and for my family—for my wife and daughters and son. And it is my prayer 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

    This week, I'm sharing another special moment from the live podcast back in October, where I'm reading through 1 Thessalonians 5, and letting Scripture bring us back to what we forget most easily: who we are in Christ.This passage is such a steady reminder that we are children of light. We're not called to live in fear, anxiety, or spiritual numbness, but to stay awake, anchored, and strengthened in the Lord. As I read, I share what this could look like in real life: choosing patience with one another, leaning into community, praying with and for each other, and learning how to give thanks in all things… even when it's not easy.This special episode is for anyone who's felt discouraged in their growth, frustrated with the process of patience, or tempted to forget the miracle of what God already did on the cross.If sanctification feels slow and obedience feels heavy, I pray this reminds you: God is faithful, He is keeping you, and your identity has already been secured.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    God has given us one book that can change the entire direction of our lives: the Bible. In this episode of Journeying Through Scriptures, host Scott Pauley takes a big-picture look at the short but powerful Old Testament book of Habakkuk, tracing its message in the context of Judah's looming captivity by Babylon and exploring how faith governs every area of life. Scott explains the historical setting—Israel's enemies and the coming Babylonian judgment—and introduces Habakkuk (whose name means "Embracer") as a godly prophet wrestling with difficult questions. The episode centers on the book's key verse, Habakkuk 2:4 ("the just shall live by his faith"), and highlights how that truth reverberates through the New Testament (Romans, Galatians, Hebrews) and fueled the Reformation. Listeners will hear the book's spiritual progression: a sob of lament (chapter 1), a vision and call to patient waiting (chapter 2), and a climactic prayer-song of trust (chapter 3). Scott draws practical lessons: bring burdens to God in prayer, wait on the Lord, rehearse God's character, and choose to rejoice even when circumstances remain unchanged. He points out how Christ's presence and justification by faith are seen throughout Habakkuk. The episode offers encouragement for anyone facing unanswered questions or national and personal crises—faith is the bridge from sorrow to praise. Scott also reminds listeners that the Word of God is meant to be walked through daily and points to ETJ's online resources at etj.bible, where you can find book-by-book study aids to enrich personal Bible reading. Expect thoughtful exposition, pastoral application, and a pastoral call to live by faith: talk to God, wait on His timing, and choose rejoicing.

    In this final episode of the Church History Matters Science and Religion series, hosts Casey Griffiths and Scott Woodward sit down with BYU religion professor Ben Spackman, whose groundbreaking dissertation explores the historical relationship between science, the Bible, evolution, and Latter-day Saint thought. Together they trace how interpretations of Genesis, debates over Darwinian evolution, and shifting cultural pressures shaped conversations among members and leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. From early 20th-century tensions to more nuanced modern approaches, this episode carefully unpacks how Saints have wrestled with questions at the intersection of revelation and reason. Casey, Scott, and Professor Spackman examine the divide between “fundamentalist” and “modernist” approaches to scripture—exploring how different assumptions about prophetic authority, biblical literalism, and scientific discovery have influenced Latter-day Saint perspectives. Rather than framing science and faith as enemies, the discussion highlights the importance of historical context, careful interpretation, and intellectual humility. As the capstone to the series, this episode invites listeners to approach both scripture and science with faith, patience, and a deeper understanding of how past conversations can inform present discipleship.

    -Jeff Durbin- Proverbs 16:33, 19:21, 21:1 and 21:30. The universe is busy. The world is busy. Life is busy. Everything is always moving. Sometimes it seems like a machine, smoothly running. More often than not, it seems like the parts are colliding and going off course. There are so many moments where it feels like the conductor has left his station and nothing is where it's supposed to be. That's what a fallen world feels like. Out of control. Out of place. However, Scripture tells us throughout, that God remains in control. He is the sovereign. He not only ordains every moment, He also sustains these moments and carries everything along to its intended purpose. This is wisdom. To know this and to live and rest under the shade of this truth.

TODAY'S DEVOTION: They had questions in their hearts that stood in the way of them receiving healing and forgiveness. Sometimes our questions are more of an accusation or an indictment than they are real questions. The teachers of religious law saw Jesus extend compassion to this paralytic. They stood there and watched Jesus respond to these four men who had come in faith bringing their friend in need. They watched these men do outrageous things like digging through a roof and lowering their friend right smack dab in front of Jesus. These friends had interrupted all that was going on so that they could get an audience with Jesus. The teachers observed all this take place, and they saw Jesus respond not just with compassion and healing but with forgiveness of sins. And they objected. They accused him. They indicted him. "What is he saying? He's blaspheming. Only God can forgive sins," they said. What was in these religious teachers' hearts was disbelief that God could really make good on his promise in scripture to send his son to heal and restore the world. They were insisting on their own way, a way like all religion that had learned how to leverage sin, to leverage despair, to leverage the frailty of people for their own advantage. But Jesus, he offers us a new way. Not the old wineskin—no, this is new wine. Not the old garment, but something absolutely new. Not us fulfilling the law, not us being faithful, not us being holy. It's not us at all. Rather, it's all God. God has put it all on himself. God is fulfilling the law. God is being faithful. God is being holy. The new way is not to look at our own efforts and our own piety. The new way is simply to look to the One, to Jesus, who has come to fulfill all that was needed for a human race that is paralyzed, unable to stand upright and walk. The Gospel is what God has done. It is already finished. It is not a transactional proposition. It is not, "If you do this, God will do that." It's not quid pro quo. No, the Gospel is all God. What he has already accomplished for the world on the cross. Ours is to awaken to the new reality, the new wine that is right here, right now. It is a declaration of what already is. It's the good news. You already are forgiven. You already belong to him even before you knew it. Today, let us place our hearts before the God who alone has already done all that is needed. Today, let us hear his words spoken to the paralytic: "Your sins are forgiven." That's for you. Now get up, take your mat, and walk. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and 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

    Prophetic Insights into the Spirit of Haman | KIB 519 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description In this week's Kingdom Intelligence Briefing (Episode 519), Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake turn toward the biblical season of Purim and the prophetic lessons embedded in the book of Esther. As hidden things continue to be revealed in our day, Purim reminds us that God is not absent—He is orchestrating reversals, positioning His people, and bringing justice in His timing. Dr. Lake explores a powerful character study of Esther's three central figures—Esther, Mordecai, and Haman—and shows how Haman's identity as "the Agagite" connects the narrative to the ancient war with Amalek. You'll see how Saul's incomplete obedience created consequences that surfaced generations later—and how God raised up Mordecai and Esther to finish what Saul failed to do. This episode also examines the psychological and spiritual profile of Haman: pride, entitlement, obsession with honor, rage at dissent, manipulation of law and finances, and genocidal hatred. The discussion highlights how these traits mirror the "Amalekite/Haman spirit" at work through systems, propaganda, and bureaucratic power—then and now. Finally, we look at the hope of Purim: divine reversal—the trap of the wicked becoming their own downfall—and the call for the remnant to cultivate spiritual "mnemonic triggers" that keep us anchored in covenant faithfulness, humility, and the Word of God. Key themes: Purim, Esther, Mordecai, Haman, Amalek, covenant warfare, generational consequences, divine reversal, remnant preparation, end-times spiritual conflict.

    Welcome to Day 2804 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2804 – The Devil Never Made Him Do It – Luke 4:1-13 Putnam Church Message – 01/18/2026 Luke's Account of the Good News - “The Devil Never Made Him Do It.”    Last week investigated a prophet who was unmatched in all history, the forerunner of Jesus Christ, in a message titled “The Greatest Mortal Who Ever Died.” Today, we begin our study through the ministry of Jesus Christ in a message titled: “The Devil Never Made Him Do It.” Our Core verses for this week are Luke 4:1-13, found on page 1595 of your Pew Bibles. Follow along as I read. OPENING PRAYER Holy Father, we gather today in the name of Jesus, our victorious Savior. As we open Your Word, teach us to recognize temptation, to discern the lies of the enemy, and to cling to the truth that sets us free. Strengthen our hearts by Your Spirit, steady our minds by Your Scriptures, and shape our lives to reflect the obedience of Christ in the wilderness. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, now and forever. Amen. Today, we come to a moment in Luke's Gospel that occurs quietly, without crowds, without choirs of angels, without disciples watching in awe. There are no miracles, no sermons, no parables, and no healings. Instead, there is silence, sand, hunger, and a solitary battle in the wilderness. It is here that Jesus faces the enemy of our souls in a way no other human ever has — and He triumphs. And He does so not by leaning on His divine authority, but by walking in obedience as a human filled with and yielded to the Holy Spirit. Our preaching text this morning comes from Luke 4:1–13 (NLT). Luke writes: “Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River. He was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. Jesus ate nothing all that time and became very hungry.” (Luke 4:1–2) Luke wants us to see something right away: Jesus did not accidentally wander into temptation. He did not stumble into a spiritual ambush. He was led there. Led by whom? Led by the Spirit. And with that, Luke invites us into one of Scripture's most profound mysteries: God can lead His children into places of testing for the purpose of strengthening, purifying, and proving them. This is not new. Israel experienced the same. Moses reminded the people in Deuteronomy 8:2 (NLT): “Remember how the Lord your God led you through the wilderness for these forty years, humbling you and testing you…” Jesus is reliving the story of Israel — but where Israel failed, Jesus prevails.     Context: Between Baptism and Ministry Before we move further, we must notice the timing: Just before the wilderness comes the baptism. Just before the temptation comes the affirmation. Just before the war comes, the voice from heaven. In Luke 3, the heavens opened, the Spirit descended like a dove, and the Father declared: “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.” (3:22) Immediately after that, Jesus is taken to the desert. This pattern is familiar to anyone who has walked with God: Mountaintops are...

    In this episode of InContext with Michael Easley, Pastor Daniel Batarseh shares his journey from studying creative advertising to planting Maranatha Bible Church in Illinois — a growing, multi-ethnic church built on prayer, discipleship, and the faithful teaching of God's Word. Daniel explains how a revival moment among young adults led to long-term ministry, why Scripture must remain central in church life, and how simple biblical practices still produce deep spiritual transformation today. This conversation encourages pastors, leaders, and believers to trust the sufficiency of God's Word rather than ministry trends or complex programming. When churches gather around Scripture, prayer, and authentic community, God faithfully builds His people.Subscribe for more conversations that help you understand God's Word in context and live it out in everyday life.
