What if the only way forward… was obedience? In this episode, Daron unpacks John 16 and challenges us to stop waiting for clarity when what God is asking for is obedience. The Christian life isn't hard—it's impossible without the Holy Spirit. Key Takeaways: • Jesus teaches you at the pace you can understand • The Holy Spirit won't lead you past your level of obedience • Stuck? It may be because you're not doing what God already said • Your future depends on your faithfulness in the present • Don't abandon your faith—abide and obey Quotes: “God will never teach you past your level of disobedience.” “The Holy Spirit is your coach, your comforter, your guide.” “Obedience is the bridge between revelation and transformation.” “The Christian life is not hard—it's impossible without the Holy Spirit.” “If you hear His voice today, do not harden your heart.”

What do Paul and Jonah have in common? We discuss this and more as we look at Acts 28:7-16.

Our next lesson in our study of “One Another” passages in the New Testament focuses on the need to serve one another.  Jesus set the ultimate example of service, and has called on his disciples to follow that example. Teacher: Allen Hutchison

Much like our world, human beings go through seasons of life.  From infancy, to youth, to middle age, to our later years, each season of life comes with its own blessings and dangers.  It is good to recognize the blessings, but also to beware of the dangers and know how to overcome them.

No ensaio “El idioma analítico de John Wilkins”, Jorge Luis Borges aborda a estranha e utópica “linguagem filosófica” de Wilkins, calcada na denominação complexa de objetos do mundo. Para exemplificar a beleza e o absurdo de tal teoria da linguagem, Borges inventa/concebe/imagina uma obra clássica chinesa inexistente (mas que poderia existir), “Emporio celestial de conocimientos benévolos”, espécie de enciclopédia repleta de estranhas e inconcebíveis classificações. Pois, e essa é a conclusão do autor argentino, toda lista será arbitrária pois arbitrário é nosso universo: “notoriamente no hay clasificación del universo que no sea arbitraria y conjetural. La razón es muy simple: no sabemos qué cosa es el universo.” Assim, inauguramos nossa playlist de listas singulares, estranhas, assustadoras e impossíveis no canal RES FICTA.Lista das melhores heresias ficcionais (sem ordem de preferência):“O Evangelho segundo São Marcos”, Jorge Luis Borges, publicado em “O Informe de Brodie”, de 1970 (menções honrosas do mesmo autor: “A seita dos trinta” e “Os teólogos”).Os conspiradores em “O pêndulo de Foucault” de Umberto Eco (1988).Haçane Saba em “Alamut”, de Vladimir Bartol (1938).A heresia e a ortodoxia pela visão do protagonista em “The Dreams of Cardinal Vittorini”, de Reggie Oliver, publicado em “The Dreams of Cardinal Vittorini and Other Strange Stories”, de 2003-2012 (menção honrosa do mesmo autor: “The Sermons of Dr Hodnet”)A nova organização social em “Os clãs da Lua Alfa”, de Philip K.

Why do self-defense classes exist? Because we live in a world where danger is real and people need to be prepared.In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, Elect Exiles, from 1 Peter. In this message, Paul unpacks what he calls “defensive, Christological thinking”—a mindset rooted in Christ that equips us to face suffering, resist temptation, and live in light of coming judgment and eternity.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

In this episode of the Salty Pastor, we explore the surprising connection between science and faith. While the scientific method begins with observation and questioning, true wisdom begins with seeking Jesus. Pastor Doug unpacks how faith doesn't contradict reason—it completes it.

We evangelicals, says Richard Coekin, have a problem—and it's a preaching problem.Richard Coekin says we are too often careless—his word—when it comes to application in preaching. We work hard on exegesis, we labour to understand the original context and the author's intent—but then we stop short. We leave our congregations with sound doctrine, but little direction. Richard has just concluded 29 years as senior pastor at Dundonald Church in London and as the founding leader of the Co-Mission network across the UK capital. He now heads up Reach UK.  Richard's new book, Apply: How to Preach the Bible for Real Life, is about to be released—and today he joins us to explore why good application is not an optional extra, but the very purpose of preaching.The Church Cothechurchco.com is a website and app platform built specifically for churches.

For our final Talkback of the summer on July 9, we were excited to focus on a theology of worship and stewardship. Our lives are marked by the things we worship – for better or worse. One way we can assess whether we're rightly ordering our Christian life is by looking at how we steward our time, talents, and resources. For this gathering, we had a chance to hear from elders, pastors, and lay members about what it means to keep Christ at the center of it all. ABOUT TALKBACKSOur Talkbacks are great opportunities to see how our faith engages with the world around us. This summer, we're excited to have four evenings that discuss how the gospel changes how we think about race, politics, the world, and our stories.Each Talkback, we get a chance to hear from a speaker for about 45 minutes before spending about 45 minutes in a Q&A. We encourage you to come with questions! MORE INFOFor more info, visit rccbirmingham.com/talkbacks

When culture challenges our core beliefs, it is good to have examples of godly resolve to keep us from compromising.

Following Jesus’ challenging teaching in Matthew 10, Jesus answers a question from the disciples of John the Baptist and then speaks to the crowds about John the Baptist. Jesus’ words here teach us that he uniquely promises blessing to those who follow Him – who don’t stumble over Him because of His teachings.

What do you do when your life is falling apart, and you've run out of options—can God still meet you there? Is there any hope for those who have failed God repeatedly?In this final message from our “The Search For A King” series, Pastor Josiah explores the theme of “IF”—those pivotal moments in life that center on trust, obedience, and the faithfulness of God. As Israel stands at a national crossroads, having demanded a king and rebelled against the Lord, Samuel confronts them with their sin, warns them of its consequences, and yet offers them hope rooted in God's steadfast mercy. IF we reject God, we face ruin; but IF we return to Him, He is faithful to forgive us and redeem us from the pit. Through a gospel-centered lens, this sermon shows how our repeated failures can never outmatch God's covenantal grace. Jesus, the true and better King, succeeds where Saul—and all of us—fail. And in Him, we hear the everlasting assurance for every believer: “God's got you!”

Isaiah 42:5–17 (Listen) 5   Thus says God, the LORD,    who created the heavens and stretched them out,    who spread out the earth and what comes from it,  who gives breath to the people on it    and spirit to those who walk in it:6   “I am the LORD; I have called you1 in righteousness;    I will take you by the hand and keep you;  I will give you as a covenant for the people,    a light for the nations,7     to open the eyes that are blind,  to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon,    from the prison those who sit in darkness.8   I am the LORD; that is my name;    my glory I give to no other,    nor my praise to carved idols.9   Behold, the former things have come to pass,    and new things I now declare;  before they spring forth    I tell you of them.” Sing to the Lord a New Song 10   Sing to the LORD a new song,    his praise from the end of the earth,  you who go down to the sea, and all that fills it,    the coastlands and their inhabitants.11   Let the desert and its cities lift up their voice,    the villages that Kedar inhabits;  let the habitants of Sela sing for joy,    let them shout from the top of the mountains.12   Let them give glory to the LORD,    and declare his praise in the coastlands.13   The LORD goes out like a mighty man,    like a man of war he stirs up his zeal;  he cries out, he shouts aloud,    he shows himself mighty against his foes. 14   For a long time I have held my peace;    I have kept still and restrained myself;  now I will cry out like a woman in labor;    I will gasp and pant.15   I will lay waste mountains and hills,    and dry up all their vegetation;  I will turn the rivers into islands,2    and dry up the pools.16   And I will lead the blind    in a way that they do not know,  in paths that they have not known    I will guide them.  I will turn the darkness before them into light,    the rough places into level ground.  These are the things I do,    and I do not forsake them.17   They are turned back and utterly put to shame,    who trust in carved idols,  who say to metal images,    “You are our gods.” Footnotes [1] 42:6 The Hebrew for you is singular; four times in this verse [2] 42:15 Or

Psalm 30 I will extol you, O Lord, for you have drawn me up     and have not let my foes rejoice over me. 2 O Lord my God, I cried to you for help,     and you have healed me. 3 O Lord, you have brought up my soul from Sheol;     you restored me to life from among those who go down to the pit. 4 Sing praises to the Lord, O you his saints,     and give thanks to his holy name. 5 For his anger is but for a moment,     and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night,     but joy comes with the morning. 6 As for me, I said in my prosperity,     “I shall never be moved.” 7 By your favor, O Lord,     you made my mountain stand strong; you hid your face;     I was dismayed. 8 To you, O Lord, I cry,     and to the Lord I plead for mercy: 9 “What profit is there in my death,     if I go down to the pit? Will the dust praise you?     Will it tell of your faithfulness? 10 Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!     O Lord, be my helper!” 11 You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;     you have loosed my sackcloth     and clothed me with gladness, 12 that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent.     O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!   Key Words: Help, Healed, Restored, Joy, Prosperity, Dismayed, Mercy, Helper, Gladness Keystone Verse: You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; You have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness.
