In the midst of the crisis in society and the Church, we look for clarity and stability. This is especially true when there is a crisis of authority in the Church. But we know that all authority comes from God, which He handed onto the Apostles as the first bishops who then passed it down in succession to this very day. This is why we must pray that they, like us, hold fast to the Faith of the Church, even if there we many temptations today to deviate from it.
We are caretakers of the mysteries of God that are to be revealed in these end days. As believers, our faithfulness is under investigation. We are in a time where everything and everyone is being shaken. Consistency with what God is revealing to us is necessary to remain faithful to God. Have you been faithful with the revelation God has entrusted to you?
St. Therese is always full of surprises for the faithful. When it comes to happiness, for example, she expressed happiness at seeing herself as imperfect and in need of God's mercy at the time of death. By the world's standards, this is a twisted sentiment, but for those seeking eternity in heaven with Our Lord, it is precisely the right feeling to hold.
9.28.2025 - Sermons on Christian Living - Being Steady in Troublesome Times - Psalm 37 by Anacostia River Church
Pastor Alan R. Knapp discusses the topic of "The Gospel of the Glory of the Christ Part 2" in his series entitled "SHORT SERMONS" This is Short Sermon 14 and it focuses on the following verses: Habakkuk 2:14; Luke 24:26-27; (Hebrews 2:9 cf. Psalm 8:5); 2 Corinthians 4:3-4; 1 Peter 1:11
In a fallen world, things are not always what they seem to be. Such is the case in 2 Samuel 6, when the Lord kills Uzzah for simply touching the Ark of the Covenant in the wrong fashion. We are drawn to question God - "is this really the God I choose to serve?" In today's episode, we return to Paul's sermon series from the archives, David: A Matter of the Heart. This week, Paul explains that this story is actually a case study about the holiness of God, and that His holiness is our only hope.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

By Jeff Richards - In this welcome message, my focus is on making the spiritual food and fellowship the main course of our feast experience. The activities are there to enhance our joy but not to be the main focus of it. Let's plan to keep God front and center of our time together and rejoice together as a
Tradition tells us that St. Dominic was given the Rosary by Our Lady, and it became one of the principle means for him to defeat the Albigensian heresy. Moreover, we know that it is through the power of the Rosary that victory was attained against all odds over the Muslims at the Battle of Lepanto. These are but two of the innumerable blessings received through the power of the Rosary--a great devotion that has has spread throughout Christendom over the centuries.
Against the backdrop of Jewish rejection of Jesus, Jesus brings the disciples out of the land of Israel. And we see the faith of a Gentile woman, the wonder of a Gentile crowd, and the provision of a great Savior.
In John 14:15–27, Jesus promises the Holy Spirit as our Advocate, Comforter, and Friend—the one who steadies our hearts and keeps us focused on him. Using imagery from The Wizard of Oz, Bret compares the Spirit's quiet guidance to Toto's loyal presence beside Dorothy: alert, faithful, and always sensing what's true. When fear and distraction rise, the Spirit redirects us toward Jesus and fills our troubled hearts with peace—the kind the world can't give or take away.
What if the small, unnoticed things in your life are actually the most powerful? In this message, Pastor Fredo Ramos explores how big change often starts in the smallest ways—like a mustard seed that eventually grows into a tree. Using stories, analogies, and even Pixar's Up, you'll discover why the little choices, daily habits, and seemingly insignificant moments may matter more than you think. If you've ever wondered where meaning and growth really come from, this message might just shift how you see your own life.--Support content like this and the vision of Sandals Church at http://sandalschurch.com/support/Join our email list for content updates: http://sandalschurch.com/subscribeDownload the Sandals Church App: http://sandalschurch.com/app/If you have questions, need prayer or want to get connected, please email us anytime at online@sandalschurch.com!
Isaiah 61–62:7 (Listen) The Year of the Lord's Favor 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor;1 he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;22 to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion— to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he may be glorified.34 They shall build up the ancient ruins; they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations. 5 Strangers shall stand and tend your flocks; foreigners shall be your plowmen and vinedressers;6 but you shall be called the priests of the LORD; they shall speak of you as the ministers of our God; you shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their glory you shall boast.7 Instead of your shame there shall be a double portion; instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their lot; therefore in their land they shall possess a double portion; they shall have everlasting joy. 8 For I the LORD love justice; I hate robbery and wrong;4 I will faithfully give them their recompense, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.9 Their offspring shall be known among the nations, and their descendants in the midst of the peoples; all who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are an offspring the LORD has blessed. 10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD; my soul shall exult in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation; he has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.11 For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations.

Acts 18:1-23 After this Paul left Athens and went to Corinth. 2 And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them, 3 and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade. 4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and tried to persuade Jews and Greeks. 5 When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with the word, testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus. 6 And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.” 7 And he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God. His house was next door to the synagogue. 8 Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with his entire household. And many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized. 9 And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent, 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people.” 11 And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. 12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack on Paul and brought him before the tribunal, 13 saying, “This man is persuading people to worship God contrary to the law.” 14 But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, O Jews, I would have reason to accept your complaint. 15 But since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of these things.” 16 And he drove them from the tribunal.17 And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to any of this. 18 After this, Paul stayed many days longer and then took leave of the brothers and set sail for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchreae he had cut his hair, for he was under a vow. 19 And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there, but he himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. 20 When they asked him to stay for a longer period, he declined. 21 But on taking leave of them he said, “I will return to you if God wills,” and he set sail from Ephesus. 22 When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch. 23 After spending some time there, he departed and went from one place to the next through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.

What are the doctrines of grace? Before we wade into the depths of these doctrines, we need to know something of the greatness of God.
Master of Puppets. In this episode, we continue our exploration of the Bondage of the Will, with Gerhard Forde's book, The Captivation of the Will. We discuss the human will — what it is, what it does, what it wants — and why we are compelled to insist that we have free choice. We also talk about the two paths: one, the path of forgiveness, and the other, the way of morality. Why do we default to morality in matters of choice, and why is the preaching of God's grace over against morality so offensive to Christians who confess that our knowledge of good and bad is a direct consequence of the original sin in the garden? We also talk about drunkenness, women's ordination, the offense of irresistible grace, and what the Holy Spirit is up to amidst the disruption that occurs when he sends his preachers to declare an end to the illusion of free choice and reveal his death sentence to bound wills.

By Jon Davies - There are several instances in Christ's ministry in which wine, and "new" wine, are discussed. However, the exact meaning of new wine may be misunderstood by many.

Segment 1 • Sermons used to be long and weighty—now they're shallow. • Why do we tolerate hours of football but squirm after 20 minutes of preaching? • Lloyd-Jones and Packer: urgent, doctrinal preaching isn't optional—it's essential. Segment 2 • Why do you go to church—and what do you expect? • Many show up with little thought, fueling shorter and shallower sermons. • Preparation matters: pray, take notes, engage your Bible, fight distractions. Segment 3 • Doctrinal truth without application leaves us wanting. • Head and heart can't be separated—truth must move affections. • Don't fall into ditches: emotionalism on one side, cold intellectualism on the other. Segment 4 • Taliban shuts down internet, silencing women and education. • Christianity uniquely dignifies women—seen even in witnesses to the resurrection. • True flourishing for women and children is found only in Christ. ___ Thanks for listening!
