Dave Lawther preaches from Titus 3:3-8 on Thursday 25th December 2025.

Sermon Text: John 1:1-14Preacher: Andrew Soule

In See God, part of the Expecting series, Tyler Lynde walks slowly through Luke 2:8–20 and invites you to recover a fresh vision of Jesus. He begins on a quiet hillside with ordinary shepherds doing ordinary work, because worship often starts in the middle of everyday life—on the night shift, at the table, in the carpool line. Into that routine, a burst of glory breaks through. Tyler reflects on the awe the shepherds felt, the kind of healthy fear that is not dread but reverence—the doorway to deep joy.Tyler unpacks why the angel announces three titles—Savior, Christ, and Lord—and why we still need all three. Savior means rescue from sin and wrath, the exchange described in 2 Corinthians 5:21. Christ means the anointed One, carrying heaven's authority to proclaim good news, set captives free, and heal the broken as in Luke 4:18–19. Lord means God in the flesh, sovereign over all, the One before whom every knee will bow. Worship isn't a vague spirituality; it centers on Jesus.He then lingers with the angels' song: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace. The order matters—glory up, then peace down. When we lift our eyes and magnify God, we find what Romans 5:1 promises: peace with God through Jesus, which opens the way to the peace of God in daily life. The manger points to the cross; the Lamb of God does what Old Testament sacrifices could only foreshadow.The shepherds' response becomes a roadmap for renewal: hear, hurry, behold, and tell. They go with haste, find Jesus as promised, and spread the word so others can wonder too. Tyler shares a moving moment from early ministry when a young girl on the autism spectrum whispered, “Jesus, I see you,” and an entire room shifted from irritation to adoration—an unforgettable reminder that God loves to reveal himself to the overlooked.If your worship has felt thin, Tyler offers a simple reset: create quiet, receive the word, go toward Jesus in prayer and community, and share what you've seen. Join the heavenly chorus of Revelation 5 and let glory rise so peace can descend—in your home, neighborhood, and church. Expect to see God again.

See God- Pastor Glover

John 3:16 is often treated like a slogan, but John meant it as a story — a story told through real people and real encounters.In this message, Pastor Cory walks through the Gospel of John and shows how God's love isn't an abstract idea. It shows up through people: a teenager finding faith through kindness, a religious leader searching for status, a woman burdened by shame, a grieving family, a doubter who needs proof, and a disciple who can't believe he's still loved.Eternal life, John says, isn't just about someday. It's about trusting Jesus now — stepping into a way of life where God's love breaks through ordinary places, ordinary people, and ordinary moments.The question isn't whether God loves the world. The question is whether we're willing to trust that love — and participate in it.

-Word, Witness, World- repetition-The Word became flesh...-And dwelt among us… (past, present, future)We are invited to:1. See God's glory in Jesus2. Experience the fullness of God's grace and truth in Jesus3. Know God through Jesus.

In this stirring and deeply encouraging Advent message, Pastor Karl continues the series The King Has Come with a raw and life-giving exploration of the second great gift Jesus brings: peace.Turning to the familiar yet profound scene in Luke 2:8–20, Pastor Karl invites us into the midnight terror of ordinary shepherds—suddenly confronted by the blinding glory of God—and shows how the very first words from heaven that night were not “Merry Christmas,” but “Fear not.” That first Christmas did not begin with sentimental calm; it began with paralyzing, mega-fear. And right there, in the middle of stacked-on-stacked fear, the angel announced good news of great joy: a Savior has been born who is Christ the Lord, the Prince of Peace.With pastoral tenderness and unflinching honesty, Pastor Karl unmasks fear as the mortal enemy of peace—how it magnifies threats, shrinks our view of God, and paints our future in colors darker than God ever intended. Yet the gospel is stronger: peace is not the absence of trouble but the presence of a Person. Peace is not something Jesus gives; peace is who Jesus is—and He gives Himself.Through the shepherds' journey from terror to testimony, we're given clear, scriptural paths out of fear and into the unshakable peace of Christ: speaking God's truth over fear's lies, refusing to agree with the spirit of fear, drawing near to Jesus through spiritual disciplines, and taking bold steps of obedience that move us against comfort and toward surrender.This is a word for everyone whose heart has been ruled by anxiety, worst-case scenarios, or the quiet fears that steal joy—especially in this season. A tender yet urgent call to stop trusting the unknown future to our own control and start trusting it to the known God who entered our fear as a baby in a manger.Because the King has come, fear does not get the final word. Peace does. And when the Prince of Peace takes over a life, what spills out is no longer fear—but praise, testimony, and unshakable confidence in the goodness of God.Essential listening for anyone who longs to trade fear for the peace that passes all understanding this Christmas.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Don't try staring at the sun. But how will you see the Lord when He appears “as golden splendor”?

Episode 272 - They Will See God What if seeing God isn't about trying harder, but desiring Him more simply? For this week, the friars turn to the Beatitude: "Blessed are the pure of heart, for they will see God." In this episode, they explore what purity of heart really means, not moral perfection, but a heart that looks to Jesus without distraction, without divided desires, without constantly turning back toward the world. They talk about intimacy with God, the battle against distraction, how sin clouds our vision, and how purity isn't about hating yourself but forgetting yourself so you can finally fix your gaze on the One who loves you. Through the lens of St. Francis, the saints, and our own daily struggles, this conversation invites us to reorient our hearts toward the Father and receive again the joy that comes from seeing Him clearly. Walk with us as we learn to desire what He desires and see God in a new and life-changing way.

Every season of life carries memories—some that warm our hearts, and others that weigh heavily on our souls. As we move into the holiday months, today's prayer and devotional reminds us that many of us feel a deep mixture of joy and sorrow. Vivian Bricker reminds us that no matter what season we find ourselves in, God’s blessings are still present, even if they feel difficult to see. Scripture tells us that every good and perfect gift comes from the Father (James 1:17). Apart from God, we have no good thing (Psalm 16:2). And even in the hardest seasons, God is still at work—bringing life out of what feels dead (Ezekiel 37) and working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). Vivian vulnerably shares her own struggle to see God’s goodness in a difficult season. Perhaps you can relate. Sometimes life feels like Paddington Bear’s lament: “Why do bad things always happen to me?” And yet, the truth of Ecclesiastes 3:1 brings hope—this season will not last forever. Seasons change. Hardship has an end. God’s faithfulness does not. Even when blessings feel hidden, God’s presence remains constant. Psalm 23 reminds us that He is with us in every valley and on every mountaintop. And the greatest blessing of all—His unfailing love—cannot be taken from us (Romans 8:37–39). This Thanksgiving season, may we ask God for renewed vision to see His blessings, even in small ways, and to trust His steady love through every change. Today's Bible Reading:“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” – Ecclesiastes 3:1 Takeaway Truths God’s blessings surround us even when life feels heavy. Every season of life—good or painful—has a purpose and an appointed end. God’s presence and His love remain the greatest blessings we will ever receive. Let’s Pray Dear God, help me to see Your blessings in every season. Although this present season feels heavy, allow me to see You. Your blessings are always around me, and they fill me with much joy. Despite the difficult hardships and struggles I'm facing right now, I turn my focus to You. Shield my heart from negativity and help me to see Your blessings. I know they are always around me, just as Your presence always surrounds me. Walk with me as I enter this new season and help me to remember that You are eternally with me. There is time and a place for everything, and I praise You that You are the orchestrator behind them all. In Your Son’s Name, I pray, Amen.

In a world full of filters, AI fakery, and half-truths, telling the truth has become a radical act. We often say “Nothing's wrong” when something always is. We hide behind curated images, polite answers, and put-together masks. Jacob did the same—his whole life was built on deception. He tricked his father Isaac, cheated his brother Esau, manipulated his father-in-law Laban, and lived on the run from the consequences of his own actions. When Jacob hears Esau is coming to meet him with 400 men, fear hits him hard. He divides his people, he prays, and then—like many of us—he schemes, trying to “save face” with gifts and plans. The original Hebrew shows Jacob trying to literally “cover Esau's face” with gifts so Esau won't have to see the real Jacob. But God steps in. Jacob ends up wrestling all night with a mysterious figure—God, an angel, or the physical form of his inner struggle. For the first time, Jacob fights honestly. No tricks. No masks. Face to face. And that changes everything. God renames him Israel—“the one who wrestles with God.” Jacob didn't win by overpowering God; he won by not giving up, by finally bringing his real self into the struggle with God. And that honesty prepares him for what comes next: reconciliation. When Jacob finally meets Esau, he bows in humility, and Esau runs to embrace him. Their relationship—once shattered—is restored. Jacob even says seeing Esau's forgiving face is like “seeing the face of God.” This sermon calls us to the same path: ✔️ Stop pretending. ✔️ Come face-to-face with God in raw honesty. ✔️ Let Him wrestle the sin, fear, and self-protection out of us. ✔️ Step into relationships with humility and truth. ✔️ See God's grace in every act of forgiveness. In an age of deception, let us be truth-tellers—before others, before ourselves, and especially before God. Honest wrestling leads to blessing, transformation, and seeing the very face of God. fmhouston.com

Tommy grew up in North Bergen New Jersey and had his first encounter with a UFO when he was six years old, stopping his brother from being abducted. He came close to his first alien at the age of twelve with his friend in his own house. During those six years, he spent working with a deity (Green Tara ) which he found out who it was actually 12 years later. He learned Hypnosis at 14 and was fortunate to work with World-renowned mentalist the Amazing Kreskin. Then later an army hypnotist named Mel Protes, at the early age of sixteen. He was doing Group hypnosis as well, which later becomes what he called Past life Regressions, in the mid 70's and later moved into psychic implant removals. In the late 60's he was working with a number one medium out of the New York psychic center, Pat Jordan, in which they did ghostbusting in and around New York and New Jersey. They created a covenant at the time. During that time he was learning much about psychic abilities. He became empathetic at the age of twenty-five, for one year, now spending much of his life in teaching about Soul Travel and out-of-body-experiences. At that time he began doing energy work under the Native Nation studying with a medicine woman for 26 years. From 19 to 40 he was doing stage magic and Native dancing. Since he was 25 doing fire-dancing around the US. He even danced on a few Islands now in Hawaii. During that whole time, he was involved in seeing many UFOs and working with Abductees.Tommy lectured for the Thunder-birds, Steven Greer's group, the Edgar Casey group, Global Science Conferences around the US four about four years, while at the same time doing several Television shows and talking on many different radio showsThe 26 years he spent studying with a medicine woman -- Oh Shinnah Fast Wolf -- and a Tibetan Master in the Vajra.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Job 19, in which a sufferer put his trust in God. We can trust God, too...because he is in our suffering with us and, in Christ, suffered for us.

Some Sadducees have a question for Jesus about the resurrection. However, their ulterior motive is to trap Jesus with his answer. Jesus responds by upending an understanding of the resurrection itself. For as we can see throughout the bible to our current day and in the future promise, when we see God everything changes.Join us In-Person or Online for Worship Sundays at 9:15am and 11:15am.Find out more about upcoming events and ways to serve our community by joining our mailing list.

Week 7 | The Sermon on the Mount (1995)This week on the podcast, we're in Week 7 of a 6-month series on the Sermon on the Mount. The text discusses the sixth Beatitude, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." This beatitude points to a profound mystery. Purity of heart is not about perfection, says Darrell, but integrity and a sincere desire for truth - qualities that come from being gospelized, and not through personal effort. The pure in heart are blessed because they see God, not through their own merit, but by fixing their gaze on the grace and compassion of Jesus.__⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Bible Course⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Darrell's Books⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Give to the Ministry of Darrell Johnson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠—⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to Darrell's Mailing List⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠darrelljohnson.ca⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠youtube.com/darrelljohnson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Chad Bowen joins us to unpack a big question from one of our church kids: “How are we made in God's image when we can't see God?” Together, we explore what it means to “image” God in the world—not by what we look like, but by how we live. From creativity and innovation to stewardship and community, we discover the many ways God's character is reflected through us as we care, create, and connect with one another.ABOUT CHAD: Rev.

In this message, Pastor Saul unpacks what it means to move from good to greater to God's greatest for your life. Using the story of Moses and his parents in Hebrews 11, he shows how God sees the “beauty of potential” in every person—including you—and how He calls us to live by faith, not by fear or convenience. You'll learn why some are given one, two, or five “talents,” and what it really means that “to whom much is given, much is required.” Pastor Saul talks honestly about emotional maturity, being equally yoked, building healthy marriages and homes, and creating a God-honoring environment that insulates (not isolates) our kids from a broken world. This episode will challenge parents, grandparents, singles, and young adults to: See God's potential in themselves and the next generation Create a clean, faith-filled environment at home Guard their hearts from the things that destroy relationships and purpose Learn to recognize God's hand and hear His voice Say “yes” to Jesus and live a life truly “fit for purpose” Stay to the end for a powerful salvation prayer and invitation to surrender your past, present, and future to Jesus.

Luke 3:1-14 Why does OUR church do this? Why should EVERY church do this? Everybody in America thinks something when they hear the word, CHURCH.

This sermon explores the Ten Plagues (Exodus 7-10), one of the most iconic and disturbing parts of Exodus. The plagues are not random acts of anger but a deliberate act of revelation, raising questions about God's justice, His purpose, and the hardening of Pharaoh's heart.Scripture ReferencesExodus 7:4-5: God's stated purpose: "The Egyptians will know that I am the Lord."Exodus 9:15-16: God tells Pharaoh He could have struck him down at once, but "raised you up to show you my power, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth."Exodus 12:12: "On all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments. I am the Lord."Exodus 12:38: A "mixed group" (including Egyptians) left with Israel.1 Corinthians 10:19-20: What pagans sacrifice, "they offer to demons and not to God."2 Peter 3:9: "The Lord is not slow... but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance."Exodus 15:11: Israel's response: "Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods?"Key PointsThe Purpose of the Plagues: Revelation The plagues are an act of revelation. God's primary stated purpose is "so that the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord." This revelation comes in three forms: Revelation (Yahweh is superior to all gods), Rescue (He fights for His people), and Retribution (He fights against the wicked oppressor).Why Ten Plagues? A Patient Judgment God explicitly says He could have wiped Pharaoh out with one plague. He "raised Pharaoh up" to demonstrate His power to the entire world. This "slowness" was an act of patience (cf. 2 Peter 3:9). It turned up the volume, allowing more people—even a "mixed multitude" of Egyptians—to witness His power, repent, and join the rescue.A War on the "Gods" of Egypt God wasn't just fighting Pharaoh; He was executing judgment "on all the gods of Egypt." This was a supernatural war against the demonic forces behind the idols (1 Cor. 10:20). Each plague was a targeted attack on a specific Egyptian deity (e.g., Plague 1, Blood, attacked Hapi, the god of the Nile; Plague 2, Frogs, attacked Hecate, the frog-headed fertility goddess).The Hardened Heart The text shows a progression: Pharaoh hardens his own heart, then God hardens it. Pharaoh, a wicked ruler, had already chosen his path. God then sovereignly used that stubbornness for His greater purpose: to display His glory to the nations so that more people could be saved.ConclusionThe Egyptians weren't the only ones with false gods. We have our own idols: success, money, power, independence, and the god of self. Sometimes, God must make war on our gods, exposing our false securities and tearing down the things we trust in. He does this not to destroy us, but to expose our idols until all we have left is Him. This is where true worship begins.Calls to ActionIdentify Your Idols: What "gods" (security, success, self) are you trusting in?See God's Hand: If your "gods" are failing, consider if God is making war on them to draw you to Himself.Worship the One True God: Respond as the Israelites did: "Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods?"

Second Baptist Church - Houston, TX | At the end of 1 Samuel 15, the prophet Samuel is depressed, disappointed, and distressed. Decades of his life, work, and ministry had been geared towards building the kingdom culture of Israel - and in no time at all, Saul's reign had ruined so much hard work. Without a plan forward, Samuel mopes. With too stringent a perspective, Samuel wrestles. But God gently corrects his course, showing His hand and hope through it all. 

Welcome back to What If I'm Wrong? A show where we might not give you the answers, but we will ask some really good questions. On today's episode, we're joined by Davey Blackburn. Davey is a pastor, author, and podcast host who shares his story of healing and redemption following the tragic murder of his wife. Today we're ending our series on Finding God in thin places. In this week's episode, we're discussing the topic: I Can't See God Right Now. Heather shares about the word faith—and how it isn't about certainty but choosing to believe what you cannot see.  Join host Heather Thompson Day and submission specialist Haley Hoskins for a conversation on what it looks like to seek God when He feels distant. In Day in the Bible, Heather reflects on 1 Kings 19, where Elijah performs a great miracle. Have a story to share? Email us at whatifimwrongpod@gmail.com.

There's a huge difference between how God judges believers and how He judges the world—and understanding this will completely change how you view God's discipline in your life.In this message from House Church in Kauai, Pastor Alex breaks down the difference between God's corrective discipline for His children and His final judgment on the world. Using the analogy of how a father corrects his own kids versus how he'd respond to strangers who hurt them, we explore what it really means when the Bible says there's “no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus.”If you've ever felt like God is angry at you, or if you've confused His discipline with condemnation, this message will bring clarity and peace.Key Topics:* The two types of judgment in Scripture* Why God disciplines believers (1 Corinthians 11:32)* Understanding “no condemnation” in Romans 8:1* How God's discipline proves His love, not His wrath* What it means to be His child versus facing His judgmentThis message will help you: ✓ Stop fearing God's anger as a believer ✓ Understand why hardship happens in your life ✓ See God's discipline as an act of love ✓ Know the difference between correction and condemnation

Guest host Rebekah Haynie talks with Foundation Worldview's Elizabeth Urbanowicz about the new resource "Helping Your Kids Know God's Good Design" and how beyond "the talk" we need to be first to help our kids understand the beauty and goodness of God's design for our sexuality.  Singer and writer Nicole C. Mullen, author of "It's Never Wrong to Do the Right Thing," shows how the stories of courageous faith in the Bible and in the lives of those we know can be full for us to take the next right step.

Preacher: Esther Kang Title: Blessed Are The Pure In Heart, For They Will See God Sermon Series: Life Reimagined Scripture: Matthew 5:8 (NIV)

This sermon was preached by our Lead Pastor Paul Smith on Matthew 5:8 and is part of our series The Beatitudes.

We read Romans 13:8–10 and make the case that love is the debt Christians never finish paying, and that love fulfills the law by doing no harm and seeking good. We challenge ourselves to practice a clear, countercultural love that points directly to Jesus, not to our virtue.• the ongoing debt to love our neighbors• why Christian love fulfills the law• who counts as a neighbor, including the least likely• love that is patient, kind, and not self-seeking• small acts of love as light in darkness• benevolence with gospel purpose, not just relief• clarity in witness and motives• a practical homework challenge to love someone tangiblyIf you're in our area and don't have a church home, we would love to see you any Sunday morning at First Baptist El Dorado

Readings: Genesis 32:22-31 | Psalm 121 | 2 Timothy 3:14-4:5 | Luke 18:1-8. Preached for the 19th Sunday after Pentecost (2025-10-19).

After our discussion on the Three Kinds of Madness | Kālī vs. Laxmī vs Sarasvatī on Laxmī Purnimā earlier this week, we launched into a very beautiful, rich and universally helpful Q&A discussion on difficult emotions and how to transform them into ecstasy! We discuss the importance of setting boundaries and not spiritually bypassing our feelings but we also present that state beyond all boundaries in which everything is seen, accepted, and celebrated as God's will! We argue against "healing", "growth" and "transformation" as valid goals in spiritual life in favor of unconditional love, Bhakti for the Infinite Reality, God. We argue that there is no such thing as a true atheist! We present a few metrics for gauging our own spiritual growth. And most importantly, we discuss what happens after you see God!Here is a playlist of our all our Q&A discussions over the years! Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM
