You Are Not Alone: How the Holy Spirit Guides Us – John 16In Episode 154 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through the Gospel of John with John 16, where Jesus prepares His disciples for what life will look like after He leaves—and gives them an incredible promise: the Holy Spirit is coming.Jesus tells His disciples that the Spirit of Truth will guide them, teach them, reveal truth, and point them back to Him. What feels like Jesus leaving is actually the beginning of something new: God's presence dwelling within His people.Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it practically means to be led by the Holy Spirit. How do we recognize His guidance? How do we distinguish His voice from our own thoughts, fears, and desires? And how can we trust His leading when we don't know what's coming next?John 16 also reminds us that following Jesus doesn't mean avoiding difficulty. Jesus tells His disciples plainly that trouble will come—but then gives them a promise we still desperately need today: “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”If you're facing a decision, walking through uncertainty, or simply longing to recognize God's voice more clearly, pull up a chair. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. The Holy Spirit is still guiding.Reflection Question: Where am I trying to figure everything out on my own instead of slowing down and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Most men are chasing a dent in the world, followers, recognition, a bigger stage, while overlooking the one place they can make the biggest difference: the town they live in and the people right next to them. Today's conversation is about impact over income, why being known by ten thousand people in your own community beats being famous online, and why we're robbing our kids by shielding them from the consequences of their bad choices. We also get into giving yourself permission to try new things without committing to them forever, managing risk without letting fear run your life, and knowing when to say no so service doesn't burn you out. My guest, Casey Lofthouse, is a mechanic, tow operator, former search and rescue volunteer, mule packer, country line-dancer, and one of the most capable and generous men I know. He's also someone I'd call first if I were in a pickle. If you've ever felt like you don't matter because you're not "making your mark," this conversation will change how you see your own value. Whether you're broke down, stuck in the sand, or just having a bad day, it's all part of the adventure. What matters is who shows up.   SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - From Making Money to Making an Impact 04:43 - The Power of Small-Town Accountability 09:09 - Teaching Kids Personal Responsibility 11:19 - Why Authenticity Matters 13:29 - The Importance of Personal Accountability 15:19 - Raising Kids to Be Responsible Adults 19:12 - Learning From the Consequences of Your Choices 25:29 - The Masculine Side of Art, Music, and Dance 29:21 - Give Yourself Permission to Try New Things 34:52 - Understanding Risk and Knowing Your Limits 40:58 - How Community Creates Lifelong Relationships 45:06 - The Impact of Serving Others 49:06 - Being There When People Need You 53:03 - Setting an Example When People Are Watching 56:59 - Living Authentically in a Social Media World 58:32 - The Unexpected Connections That Come From Helping People 01:00:54 - Why Serving Others Is So Rewarding 01:02:50 - Knowing When to Say No 01:05:07 - Knowing When It's Time to Move On 01:06:55 - Raising Kids Who Surpass You 01:08:00 - What's Next for Casey? 01:10:23 - Becoming the Best Version of Yourself 01:12:19 - Casey's Off-Road Recovery and Life in the Community   Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

Do we see the poor, hurting, and forgotten around us with the heart of Jesus Christ? Are we willing to surrender ourselves so that God can use us to meet both their physical and spiritual needs?In this episode, we consider the life of Salvation Army founder William Booth through Christ's command to care for “the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind” (see Luke 14:12–14). Burdened by the desperate needs he witnessed in London, Booth gave himself to bringing practical help and, above all, the hope of the Gospel to those society often overlooked. His ministry embodied a simple concern for “others”—feeding the hungry, caring for human dignity, and proclaiming salvation through Jesus Christ. Even through suffering, opposition, and failing eyesight, Booth continued serving with remarkable perseverance. His life challenges us to look beyond ourselves, see those in need around us, and allow Christ to have all that we are so that His love and light might flow through us to others.

Joy in the Resistance: Loving Jesus When the World Pushes Back – John 15:13–27In Episode 153 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 15:13–27, where Jesus moves from one of His greatest statements about love—“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends”—into a difficult truth about what it means to follow Him: not everyone will understand or accept you.Jesus calls His disciples friends, commands them to love one another, and reminds them that they have been chosen to bear lasting fruit. But He also prepares them for resistance, rejection, and persecution.So how do we hold onto joy, love, and faith when following Jesus becomes difficult?Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to love sacrificially without needing the approval of the world, how to remain rooted in Christ when your faith is challenged, and the role of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate—who empowers us to testify about Jesus.Following Christ doesn't guarantee an easy road. But Jesus never asks us to walk it alone.This conversation is an invitation to stay rooted in love, remain faithful under pressure, and choose joy even when following Jesus comes with a cost.Reflection Question: Can I remain joyful, loving, and faithful to Jesus even when following Him costs me the approval of others?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Stay Connected: The Vine, the Branches & the Purpose of Pruning – John 15:1–12In Episode 151 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into one of Jesus' most powerful pictures of our relationship with Him: “I am the vine; you are the branches.”In John 15:1–12, Jesus teaches that a fruitful life doesn't come from striving harder—it comes from abiding deeper. But He also introduces something most of us would rather avoid: pruning.Together, Jamie and Jane explore why God prunes even the branches that are already producing fruit, how seasons of cutting back can actually prepare us for greater growth, and what it practically looks like to remain connected to Jesus when life feels uncomfortable or uncertain.What if the thing God is removing isn't punishment? What if it's preparation?Jesus' invitation is simple: Remain in Me. Because apart from Him we can do nothing, but connected to the Vine, our lives can produce the kind of lasting fruit God created us to bear.And at the center of it all is love—remaining in His love and learning to love others as He has loved us.Reflection Question: What if the thing I've been asking God to restore is actually something He's pruning so I can grow?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

As girls settle into the rhythms of a new school year, one of the greatest gifts parents can give is a heart that delights in serving others. But a servant's heart doesn't develop by accident—it grows as girls learn to see needs, respond with compassion, and understand that every act of kindness can point others to Christ.  In this episode of Raising Godly Girls, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose explore how parents can cultivate a lifestyle of service in their daughters from the earliest years through the teen years. Together they discuss practical ways to help girls discover their God-given gifts, serve with humility, and understand that true service isn't about earning praise—it's about reflecting the heart of Jesus.  You'll also hear encouragement to make service a natural part of your family's rhythm, why serving alongside others often deepens both faith and friendships, and how American Heritage Girls continues to equip girls to put their faith into action through meaningful service opportunities in communities across the nation.  Whether your daughter loves organizing, creating, encouraging, leading, or quietly helping behind the scenes, God has uniquely designed her to make an eternal impact. This episode will inspire your family to embrace the simple but powerful truth that one willing "yes" to God can change lives.    Three Things to Consider:  Every girl has unique God-given gifts that can be used to serve others and glorify Christ.  Celebrate your daughter's Christlike heart—not just her helpful actions—so she connects service to her identity in Jesus.  Serving alongside family, church, and Christian community helps girls develop a lifelong love for putting God's love into action.    Scriptures Referenced:  Mark 12:41–44  John 6:3–14  Acts 8:26–39  Galatians 6:10  Matthew 5:16  1 Corinthians 15:57    Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.    To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Right Thinking with Steve Coplon | Guest: Donna CoplonThis week's show is called "With a Little Help from My Friends - Donna Coplon". Tune in and hear Steve continue the countdown to his 500th show by honoring his wife, Donna Coplon, who, more than any other person in his life, is the reason that he is here today.

Peace the World Can't Give: The Promise of the Holy Spirit – John 14:15–31 In Episode 150 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane finish John 14 with one of Jesus' greatest promises: we will never have to walk alone. As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He promises the coming of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate, Helper, and Teacher who will remain with them and remind them of everything Jesus has taught. Then, in the middle of uncertainty about what comes next, Jesus gives them something the world cannot manufacture: His peace. Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to recognize the presence of the Holy Spirit in our everyday lives, how love for Jesus shapes our obedience, and the difference between temporary peace based on circumstances and the lasting peace that comes from Christ. Jesus never promised His followers a life without trouble, questions, or uncertainty. He promised something better: His presence in the middle of it. If your heart has been anxious, overwhelmed, or searching for peace, pull up a chair. John 14 reminds us that we have a Helper, we have His presence, and we have a peace the world cannot give. Reflection Question: Am I looking to my circumstances to give me peace—or am I learning to receive the peace Jesus has already given me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Right Thinking with Steve Coplon | Guest: Dave RichardsThis week's show is called "With a Little Help from My Friends - Dave Richards". Tune in and hear Steve continue the countdown to his 500th show by honoring Dave Richards, the man whom Steve thanks for taking him under his wing and doing all of the heavy lifting to get Right Thinking Foundation off the ground. Dave has stayed with Steve since the beginning, over 14 years ago, to help Steve reach thousands of people who need a helping hand to move their lives forward. It is one of the greatest blessings and good fortunes in Steve's life to be Dave's friend. It is a pleasure for Steve to share Dave, a great humanitarian, with you today.In this episode, we continue our countdown to our 500th show by looking back at our long collaboration with Dave Richards and his early support in helping us start the Right Thinking Foundation. We talk about our shared prison visits and the work of preparing people for reentry through job training, interview skills, mentoring, and practical support. We also hear Dave reflect on his upbringing, the values shaped by his parents, and the influence of quotes like “The Man in the Arena” and “Desiderata.” He explains his view of success as a step-by-step process built on planning, consistency, humility, and willingness to take honest work.Finally, we discuss his work with Concursive and the Connect platform, which helps people build communities, action plans, and accountability around issues such as reentry, food insecurity, autism support, and working with Gold Star families. He closes with advice to prepare, stay humble, avoid workplace drama, and keep going with help from others.https://www.talknetworkradio.com/hosts/right-thinking

Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

On a Thursday, just before lunch, the pastor passionately reminded the seventy senior saints gathered in his church’s cinder block auditorium about the promise of their resurrection. Meanwhile, in the fellowship hall sandwiches and watermelon slices were set out, waiting to be consumed by mourners sitting on metal folding chairs placed on stained carpet. It was a perfectly normal funeral, except for the preacher. He was a well-known speaker who has preached to stadiums full of thousands. Now he was speaking just as enthusiastically to this weekday gathering. Paul told his protégé, Timothy, “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season . . . . discharge all the duties of your ministry” (4:2–5). All the duties. Not only the big ones performed on large stages with bright lights. Also ordinary, weekday duties. The speeches that won’t be recorded and broadcast for generations to come. The tasks that few will see. Do those well too. Because Someone is watching. Paul told Timothy he was serving “in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead” (4:1). Your platform may be small, but your audience could not be more important. Jesus waits expectantly for your service. Do it for Him, relying on the power of His Spirit. He will be honored as you humbly, faithfully minister to others.

Troubled World, Untroubled Heart: Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain – John 14:1–11 In Episode 147 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane step into John 14:1–11, where Jesus speaks some of His most comforting words to His disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Jesus knows what is coming. The disciples are facing uncertainty, confusion, and fear—yet He doesn't promise them an easy road. Instead, He gives them something greater: Himself. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it means to have an untroubled heart in a troubled world, why trusting God doesn't require understanding everything He's doing, and the hope found in Jesus' declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” When the world feels uncertain, our circumstances don't have to determine the condition of our hearts. Jesus invites us to trust Him, know the Father through Him, and find peace in the promise that He is preparing the way. If your heart has felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what's ahead, John 14 is an invitation to remember who Jesus is—and why you can trust Him. What is troubling my heart right now—and what would change if I trusted Jesus with it instead of trying to control the outcome? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Send us Fan MailIn this homily, we reflect on the Feast of the Transfiguration and the Christian calling to behold Christ and be transformed by His uncreated light.The life of St. Herman of Alaska gives us a practical example of what this transformation looks like. While St. Herman is remembered for miracles and his deep life of prayer, he is also remembered for something much more ordinary: serving those around him. He cared for orphans, taught children, advocated for indigenous people who were being abused, counseled families, worked with his hands, preached the Gospel, and served those who were vulnerable and in need.The Christian life calls us both to contemplation and to service—to seek Christ in prayer and silence, while also bringing His love to our neighbors through concrete works of mercy.May the prayers and example of St. Herman of Alaska help us to draw closer to Christ and become servants to those who need us.Christ is in our midst!Website @ https://www.st-innocent.orgInstagram @ https://www.instagram.com/st.innocentchurch/Facebook @ https://fb.me/SaintInnocentMaconGeorgia Help Support St. Innocent Orthodox Church @ https://onrealm.org/siocmacon/-/form/give/now

Faithful Through Betrayal: Love, Loyalty, and the New Commandment – John 13:18–38 In Episode 146 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 13:18–38, where the final hours before the cross reveal both the beauty of Christ's love and the heartbreak of human failure. Jesus foretells Judas' betrayal, predicts Peter's denial, and gives His disciples a new commandment that will forever define His followers: "Love one another as I have loved you." Together, they explore how Jesus responded to betrayal with compassion, why our identity is rooted in Christ rather than our failures, and what it truly means to love others with the same grace we've received. Even in the face of rejection and abandonment, Jesus remained faithful to His mission—and He invites us to do the same. This episode is a powerful reminder that while people may disappoint us, Jesus never will. His love is stronger than betrayal, His grace is greater than our failures, and His call to love remains at the center of the Christian life. How can I reflect the love of Jesus toward someone who has hurt me, disappointed me, or failed me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In this episode, Jim Davis, preaching at the 9 a.m. service, explores what the church is meant to be: not just a place people attend, but a people transformed by Jesus and shaped by love, generosity, joy, and authentic community. He challenges listeners to move beyond simply showing up on Sundays and instead live as the church every day by loving Jesus, loving people, serving others, forgiving quickly, encouraging daily, and creating a culture where people can encounter grace, healing, and genuine faith.

“Send Coach John a message”I found this post and all the parts to it, as a big-time reminder for me to keep looking to get better.  It comes from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) and a powerful connection is this:  “Your competition isn't other people.  Your competition is: your bad habits, your distractions, your insecurities, your procrastination, your lack of discipline, your fear and your ego.”  There is a lot of truth in this for me as I found out this morning. Let's just say I was reminded about the simple fact that I have a lot to work on. I'm just glad I'm acknowledging that fact and I'm willing to do something about it.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

“Send Coach John a message”The second piece (that I talked about yesterday) was this from a total legend.  Zig Ziglar  (@TheZigZiglar) has had tons of influence on millions and millions of people. He shared these valuable and timeless lessons:  “Skills, knowledge, character, faith, and discipline continue producing value long after material rewards fade. Every lesson you learn and every strong habit you build expands what you are capable of contributing. Investing in yourself is not only about achieving more. It is about becoming more valuable to the people you are called to serve.”  The post goes on to remind us about this pure gold thought by sharing this quote: “The greatest investment you will ever make is in the person you are becoming.”  It is becoming more and more apparent to me that if I keep striving to be my best - in all areas of my life (knowing that some days I will fall short & to give myself some grace and keep going), those that I love and care for (and total strangers) will have an easier life because of the choices I made.

The Towel and the Basin: The Heart of a Servant – John 13:1–17 In Episode 145 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane begin one of the most intimate and transformative sections of the Gospel of John. In John 13:1–17, Jesus—the King of kings—kneels to wash the feet of His disciples, revealing that true greatness in God's Kingdom is found in humble service. Together, they unpack the significance of this unforgettable moment, exploring what it means to love sacrificially, lead with humility, and serve others with the heart of Christ. Peter's struggle to accept Jesus' act of service also reminds us that following Jesus means learning both to receive His grace and to extend it to others. This episode is an invitation to exchange pride for humility, status for service, and self-centered living for the example Jesus modeled on the night before the cross. As followers of Christ, we're not just called to admire His example—we're called to live it. Who is Jesus inviting me to serve with humility this week, and am I willing to lay down my pride to love like He loved?____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Throughout the Being Human series, we have explored what it means to be created in God's image and restored through Christ. This final message turns our attention to who we are becoming. As we behold Jesus, the Holy Spirit steadily transforms us into His likeness, shaping not only what we believe but who we are. Real discipleship begins in His presence, where our hearts are renewed before our hands are ever called to serve. And as His love takes root within us, it naturally overflows into humble, faithful service toward others. Loving God and loving our neighbor are never separate pursuits. They are the fruit of a life being formed by Christ, leaving behind a legacy that points the next generation and the world around us to the hope found in Him.

Episode Summary Same-sex attraction can become an intensely lonely battle, especially when shame and fear keep a struggling believer from seeking help. In this concluding episode of the Twisted Passions series, Ryan Swanson shares three listener testimonies that point to dependence on Christ, honest accountability, wise boundaries, and a willingness to let God use a redeemed story. The episode challenges both those seeking victory and those who want to help them: condemnation alone is not enough, pride must give way to humility, and God often provides the right people to help us walk faithfully. Topics Discussed Why Christians must do more than simply preach against homosexuality Biblical identity and the way sin twists desires and emotions Turning to Christ instead of trying to overcome temptation through willpower Confiding in mature, trustworthy believers and seeking accountability Breaking the lonely cycle of pride through humility Choosing wise boundaries instead of making provision for temptation The value of godly mentorship, biblical masculinity, and biblical femininity Moving from fear and shame to a willingness to share Christ's work Using personal testimony to help others pursue victory A forthcoming series on less-discussed biblical passages about purity Key Takeaways Jesus understands temptation and remains the believer's unfailing source of strength. God often uses mature mentors, faithful friends, and accountability partners to help us walk in victory. Humility opens the door to help, while pride keeps spiritual battles hidden and isolated. Wise relationships and prudent boundaries both have a place in resisting temptation. A testimony should magnify what Christ has done rather than keep us imprisoned by shame. Victory is bigger than personal relief; God can use a surrendered life to strengthen others in the same fight.
