There are seasons when following God means being willing to walk a little differently than everyone around you.   In this episode, I'm talking about what it really means to live set apart in your business—and why being set apart doesn't always feel comfortable. Sometimes God calls us into lonely places, pruning seasons, and moments where we have to trust Him before we can see what He's doing.   We'll talk about what happens when God expands your influence, why expansion can sometimes feel lonely, and how to stay grounded in God's presence when you're making big decisions in your business, brand, or calling.   In this episode, you'll discover: Why being set apart can require you to become comfortable with uncomfortable seasons How God uses pruning and solitude to prepare us for greater influence Why expansion doesn't always mean adding more—it can mean letting go How to trust God when you feel alone, misunderstood, or uncertain about your next step Why seeking God first matters when you're making major business and life decisions How to recognize that God's presence—not the outcome—is where your victory begins   And remember, being set apart doesn't mean being abandoned. God is with you in the lonely places, the valley seasons, and the mountaintops.   Get Your Copy of Firebrand Book: https://fitinfaithmedia.com/firebrand   Ready to expand your message?

Sen. Josh Hawley, U.S. senator from Missouri, shares God's Word today from Acts 13. He challenges us to be “set apart” for God, and to be His ambassadors in every aspect of life and culture. Sen. Hawley brought an encouraging word to remind us that God has a “calling” for each of us—to fulfill God's purposes for our lives.

Sanctify is a beautiful word that is often defined as “set apart,” but oh it means much more—a greater word that sets us apart for a better life through God and His word.

John looks at the story of Mary in Luke 1 to explore what it really means to be set apart, showing that God chose her not for her status but for the openness of her heart. He challenges us to move beyond lip service and adopt Mary’s posture of surrender, trusting that a life offered…

What does it mean that God is holy? In Isaiah 6, Isaiah encounters a God who is completely set apart, pure, and unlike anyone or anything else. Seeing God's holiness causes Isaiah to see himself more clearly—but it also leads to cleansing, forgiveness, and calling. In this message from our Love God series, Daniel McCoy reminds us that when we truly see God for who He is, our response is worship, surrender, and a willingness to say, "Here am I. Send me!"

Preacher: Russell Horner

God has not simply separated us from our former lives. He has set us apart for Himself and sent us into the world as people transformed and empowered by His gospel.

You Were Set Apart for a Reason | Conspiracy of the Cross Week 2 by Faith Promise Church

Have you ever wondered if becoming a more consecrated missionary means becoming less of yourself? Maybe you've started to feel like the things you love, the interests you had before your mission, or even parts of your personality need to disappear in order for you to truly be "set apart." In this episode, I want to explore the difference between laying aside worldly things and laying aside yourself. We'll talk about why your personality, creativity, interests, desires, and the things that light you up aren't necessarily distractions from missionary work. In fact, they may be part of what God gave you to help you connect, contribute, and bring your whole self to the work. I'll also walk you through some questions to help you notice what fuels you, what you may have unnecessarily labeled as "worldly," and how you can bring the essence of what you love into your mission within the mission framework. My hope is that you leave knowing that being set apart doesn't require you to become a generic version of a missionary. You can be consecrated and still be fully you. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

How do a pastor, deaconess, and principal work together for faith formation and encouraging future church workers? The Rev. Dr. Matthew Durance (Pastor, Zion Lutheran Church and School, Harbor Beach, MI), Deaconess Rachel Bulgrien (Zion Lutheran Church and School, Harbor Beach, MI), and Julie Metzger (Principal, Zion Lutheran Church and School, Harbor Beach, MI) join Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve series to talk about how each of them serves in their unique vocations, their individual journeys into church work, how they each have a hand in faith formation of children and adults at Zion, how forming our children in the faith is also key to forming them toward full-time church work, and how the congregation is involved in robust faith formation.

"Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it." — 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24We are kicking off a new season here with Athey Women! Tune in to hear some exciting updates about where we are headed with the podcast, as well as our ministry in general, as we begin a new Bible study called Set Apart! Amy provides an outline of what the study is about and how we, as women, should seek to be Set Apart for the Lord's purposes!"A dedicated spirit is thus wholly given to God, to know Him, to choose His will, to resemble His character, to trust His Word, to love Him supremely, to glorify Him only, to enjoy Him wholly and to belong to Him utterly, unreservedly, and forever." —A. B. SimpsonReferences:Ephesians 5:15-16; 1 Thessalonians 4:3; 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24; John 3; Isaiah 64:6Resources:Set Apart Bible Study

Is it strict… or is it romantic? Most people hear the word "consecration" and think legalism—a list of rules for pastors and the overly serious. Maybe it's something else entirely: an invitation. Because the God who is searching the whole earth for a fully devoted heart isn't sitting back on His throne deciding whether to move. He's on the edge of His seat, saying, give me one. In this conversation, Preston sits down with Luke LeFevre, a pastor & revivalist, to talk about the price of the set-apart life, why the Western church stopped teaching it, and what God does when someone finally pays it. In this episode: You Can't Be Hungry For What You've Never Tasted — why some people aren't hungry for God (and why that's not their fault) Strict Or Romantic? — the reframe that changes everything Move The Fence In — why we should never play close to the line, and where the gray area actually leads You Don't Have To Feel Convicted To Be Convicted — how to know the voice you're hearing is God and not you He'll Just Use You Less — the line that puts the cost of consecration in one sentence Consecration was never about earning something from God. It's about making room for Him—and refusing to compromise the intimacy that comes when He draws close. It's costly, it isn't getting cheaper, and Luke and Preston both say the same thing about it: no matter what it costs, it is always worth it.    

People hear about infant baptism, and they have immediate questions when they are not used to this practice. How can we baptize an infant who has not yet made a profession of faith? Does baptism mean that the child is necessarily regenerate? Does the water itself wash away sin?Baptism is not a magical act, nor is it a declaration that we know with certainty what God has done in the heart of an individual. Rather, baptism is a sign of God's covenant. It is God's testimony that his promises are true and that salvation is found in Christ.Baptism points us to the great reality of the gospel: Christ has passed through death in the place of his people. The waters of death have no ultimate claim upon those who are united to Christ. He entered into death, endured its judgment, and emerged victorious in his resurrection. Our cleansing is not ultimately found in the water of baptism. Our cleansing is found in Christ. Baptism simply testifies that the church is the place where we see the people who have passed through death. Set Apart in ChristIn 1 Corinthians 7:14, Paul says that the children of a household with even one believing parent are holy rather than unclean. That language is significant. Paul is not saying that every child of a believing parent is automatically regenerate or guaranteed salvation. He is saying that these children are set apart unto the Lord. They belong to the covenant community and are to be raised as covenant children.This is consistent with the way God has always dealt with his people. God works through families and households. Children were included in the covenant in the Old Testament, and Paul exhorts children as members of the covenant community in the New Testament.So when we baptize our children, we are not saying, "This child is definitely saved because he has received water." We are saying, "This child has been set apart unto the Lord. This child belongs to the covenant community. This child has been given the sign and pledge of God's promises." This is why we say that the child can pray to God. This child is in covenant with the Lord. We should not see the sign as a sign of our faith, but a sign of the Lord's covenant. Washed by ChristThere is a challenge that Paul is addressing. The challenge is: how do we view our children when only one parent is a professing believer? Do we see the children as unholy or holy? Paul literally tells us that based on the profession of one parent, we see the children as holy. Paul also says otherwise they would be unclean. This means that the children would be outside the covenant. “Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.”When we say that members of the covenant are washed by Christ, we should see that this does not mean that they are necessarily saved. It does not mean that they take hold of Christ by faith. This is like Israel passing through the sea. They were all vindicated in the sea in that they emerged triumphant. God delivered them, but it does not mean that all of them were in the right relationship with the Lord. Paul reminds us that God was not pleased with all of them. (1 Cor. 10:1-5)This means that we teach them to pray to their God. We don't treat them as outsiders who have no relationship to the covenant until they can somehow prove themselves worthy of entering it. We raise them as children who have been set apart unto the Lord, praying that the Holy Spirit will bring them to genuine faith in Christ. So they pray to our God. They are exhorted to live for our Lord's glory. The sacrament comes to the community with a warning. The sacrament doesn't permit us to presume upon God's grace. The sign points us to Christ and calls us to take hold of him by faith. The same waters that speak of salvation also remind us of judgment. Think about the flood. Think about Israel passing through the sea (1 Corinthians 10:1-5). Think about those who were outside the ark (1 Peter 3:21). The point is, there are a people set apart unto the Lord, and there are those who are washed away. So baptism gives us both comfort and warning. It comforts us by reminding us that Christ has really washed a people unto himself. He really has passed through death. It is the assurance that as we take hold of Christ by faith, we are washed. However, if we turn away, that washing is washing us away from the covenant family. When one walks away from the Lord's promises, then the washing is the drowning in the sea or being consumed by the water. This is the other side of good news. ConclusionDo we trust Christ, or do we trust ourselves? Do we rest in his righteousness, or do we think we can add our own works to what he has accomplished? Do we embrace the reality to which the sign points, or do we turn away from it?That is why baptism is such a beautiful sign of the gospel. It doesn't point us ultimately to ourselves. It points us to Christ.We are reminded that we have been set apart unto the Lord. We are reminded that his promises are real. We are reminded that Christ has died, Christ has risen, and Christ has conquered death for his people.So let us not put our confidence in the water. Let us put our confidence in Christ. Let us be refreshed by the promises of God, take hold of Christ by faith, and live as those who have been consecrated and set apart unto him.

How do Church Work Scholarships make a difference for church work students? The Rev. Patrick Gumz (Mission Executive, Central Illinois District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod), Nicholas Seibert (Vicar at Our Savior's Lutheran Church, Springfield, IL) and Oliver Braaten (Freshman, Concordia University, Nebraska) join Andy and Sarah for our Set Apart to Serve series to talk about Pastor Gumz's story of church work formation, what Christian formation has looked like for all three of them, their individual stories of considering church work vocations, how congregations are a part of the culture helping to form church workers, how church work scholarships are important for students in their formation journey, and why it is important for LCMS Districts to support church worker formation.

Peter reminds believers that suffering for Christ should be expected rather than viewed as something strange. Christians are called to rejoice in sharing Christ's sufferings, remain unashamed of bearing His name, and continue doing good in the face of opposition. Even in times of testing, they can entrust themselves to their faithful Creator, knowing that God is at work through their suffering.

Merlin Miller preaches a special sermon from Acts 13:2-3 in honor of commissioning, baptism and Communion. This short Bible text contains the pivotal words Set Apart & Called that propelled Paul and Barnabas on their first missionary journey.

Because Christ suffered to fulfill God's will, believers are called to leave behind sinful desires and live with purpose. Peter teaches that being set apart is not merely avoiding sin, but living a life of prayer, love, service, and faithful stewardship. Even when the world opposes us, we are called to reflect Christ's character and use our God-given gifts for His glory, knowing we have been set apart for God's will and purpose.
