“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.” - 2 Corinthians 8:9This powerful verse is often quoted when we talk about generosity, and rightly so. It shows us that generosity isn't just a financial principle—it's rooted in the very heart of the Gospel. Today, Dr. Nathan W. Harris joins us to explore that connection more deeply.Dr. Nathan W. Harris is the Vice President of Strategic Initiatives at The University of Mobile in Mobile, Alabama. He is also the author of A Short Guide to Gospel Generosity: Giving as an Act of Grace.What Is Gospel Generosity?Gospel generosity is giving rooted in the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. Generosity is not merely a virtue for the Christian life but a cheerful disposition that springs forth from the gospel. This kind of generosity arises from new life in Christ, is empowered by the Holy Spirit, and reflects the Father's model of grace throughout creation.At its core, gospel generosity isn't just about giving—it's about proclaiming and portraying Christ's saving work in our lives. It signifies a radical transformation of a believer's heart and mind, leading to joyful stewardship of resources in service to God's kingdom.Beyond the Tithe: A Higher CallingOne of the most debated topics surrounding generosity is the concept of tithing. Are Christians called to tithe, or is there a greater expectation?While tithing—giving 10%—is not explicitly required for Christians, the gospel calls us to something far greater. We aren't obligated to give; instead, Christians have an incredible gospel opportunity. We are called to live generously, humbly, selflessly, and with the kingdom of God in mind.This perspective reframes giving not as a rule to follow but as an act of grace and worship, rooted in gratitude for what Christ has done.How the Gospel Transforms Our View of MoneyThe gospel transforms our hearts and minds and revolutionizes how we approach money and stewardship. Martin Luther once said:“There are three conversions in one's life—the conversion of the heart, the mind, and the pocketbook.” When we encounter Christ, our hearts are filled with affection for Him, and our minds are set on heavenly things. However, many Christians struggle to surrender their finances to God fully. You can't hold on to Christ while also holding on to your money.A heart transformed by the gospel desires to honor Christ above wealth. A mind renewed by the gospel prioritizes kingdom values over worldly ones. This transformation shapes every aspect of our financial lives, from earning and saving to spending and giving.Living as Stewards of God's ResourcesWhen our hearts and minds are fully surrendered to Christ, our finances naturally follow. Giving becomes not just an obligation but an act of worship and a reflection of the gospel's transforming power.To explore these ideas further, check out Dr. Nathan W. Harris's book,  A Short Guide to Gospel Generosity: Giving as an Act of Grace. This concise guide offers biblical wisdom and practical insights into living a life of joyful, gospel-rooted generosity.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a whole life insurance policy for my mom that we've been paying on for about nine years.

To have a good relationship we need to learn to speak the love languages that our partner can understand and feel. This can be particularly uncomfortable for people who are obsessive-compulsive, because they are most familiar with one particular language. But learning a new language is always good, and the energy and determination that come with being obsessive-compulsive can help you to learn it.

Like the seeds of a dandelion drift on the wind and land other places, cancer can spread under the right conditions. How does cancer spread and why does it happen? We tackle these questions in this episode in our series “Everything you always wanted to know about cancer, but didn't have anyone to ask.” https://bit.ly/440dQKoIn This Episode:3:44 - Road Trip: Missouri and Recipe for Gooey Butter Cake5:22 - What is Your Life's Resume?

The goal of treating metastatic cancer is to control it by stopping or slowing its growth. Some people can live for years with metastatic cancer that is well-controlled. The treatment depends on the type of primary cancer, where it has spread, previous cancer treatments, and general health.Cancer researchers, at the most basic level, focus their energy on what makes cancer cells start in the first place and what makes it metastasize. We've been talking the last few weeks about the basic aspects of cancer and this week we are going to talk about cancer cells going rogue and moving through the body. This is called metastasis, or stage 4 cancer. #cancer #metastaticcancer #metastasis #stage4 #stageIV #stupidcancer #cancersucks #healtheducation #publichealth #everyonedies #everydayisagift #palliativecare #cancerresources #cancereducation Support the showGet show notes and resources at our website: every1dies.org.

Send us a textCancer staging is very important to guide treatment decisions and eligibility in studies. When an oncologist delivers a diagnosis it will include stage, but what does that mean?

The stage of disease measures if the cancer has spread, and how far is has spread from where it started.  Cancer staging is a way to communicate the extent of cancer in the body so that everyone involved is speaking the same language.Cancer Staging Example: Stomach CancerDr. Matzo used stomach cancer as a way to understand staging. Visit our show notes for an image and detailed explanations.Marianne also shared about cancer sub-categories, such as 1a, 2c, etc. This further refines the definition of how far the cancer has spread.Cancer Staging with TNM CategoriesThe Tumor-Node-Metastasis notation is an even more refined way to define the extent of cancer spread. TNM helps to establish the anatomic extent of the disease, and the combination of the 3 factors can define the overall tumor stage. This method allows for simplification, with cancers staged from I-IV, with stage IV being the most severe stage. Related Episodes:S5E45: Why Does Cancer Exist?

I don't need it, but I noticed that the credit score they pulled for me was significantly different from the score I see when I check my credit reports online. Why is there such a big difference between the score the bank pulled and the scores I see from consumer credit reporting services?I have about four years left on a 2.9% mortgage with $17,000 remaining. Should I sell some of my gold, which is currently valued at around $2,700 per ounce, to pay off the mortgage entirely and become debt-free? What do you think about that?I used to be into partying and drugs, even selling drugs, which landed me in prison. On September 10, 2021, I gave my life to Jesus Christ, and now I'm clean, sober, and working to rebuild my finances. I have some debts in collections, including a repossessed auto loan, medical bills, and an overdraft. I'm unsure of the exact amounts, but I want to consolidate and start paying them off to honor those debts and move forward. What's the best way to start?I've received calls from my current lender and others about refinancing my mortgage. Last month, I tried applying at a different bank, but they said my credit score needed to be higher. My current interest rate is 7.25%.

Send us a Text Message.What does it mean for something to be ESG when two of those words are adjectives and one is a noun? I mean think about it. “Environmental, social, and governance” doesn't really describe anything. It's also a good example of cacophony. So can someone please explain what it means? Today, luckily, Paul Mueller, senior research fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research, comes to my rescue. He explains what ESG means and how it relates to CSR (corporate social responsibility, ESG's more comprehensible predecessor). He answers a question that's been plaguing me forever, which is, why are free marketeers generally against these types of movements, even though they are private endeavors?

Discover why church membership isn't just a tradition but a vital part of God's design for His people. Pastor Inserra unpacks how the local church is more than just a place we attend—it's where we truly belong and thrive as followers of Christ. Together, we explore how prioritizing church can transform your faith and mission in the world. Also, do you find yourself waiting for the other shoe to drop, even when things are going really well? God is present with us right here, right now. How can you embrace and enjoy today while it’s here? Then, Ben attends a small church, and like many small churches they struggle to have enough hands. But should they try to steal sheep from other churches, or reach the 40% who don't attend church at all.Support the show: https://give.moodyradio.org/fall-share?v=def&appeal=MRWM&_gl=1%2a142i9we%2a_ga%2aNTE4MTE5MmUtY2U1Yy00YmQ3LWU4MmUtNjEwYTQ5YzAyODRj%2a_ga_4WH1937046%2aMTY5NTExODEwMS4yOTkuMC4xNjk1MTE4MTAxLjYwLjAuMA..&_ga=2.197426156.215784306.1695059984-1182841406.166859587See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A common claim in modern American Christianity is that you don’t have to go to church to be a Christian. However, the local church was God’s design. The writers of the New Testament would find a Christian faith separate from the church to be unrecognizable. Our guest Wednesday on Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, Dean Inserra, has often said to his congregation, “There is more to being a Christian than going to church, but there certainly isn’t less.” It is God's grand idea to display his glory and provide the avenue for his people to flourish as his missionaries to the world.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What is the purpose and plan of the local Church? Why are more and more Christians opting out of church and why does it matter? Dean Inserra lead pastor of City Church in Tallahassee Florida, answers these questions and more in his new book, A Short Guide to Church. Dean talks with Seth and Deb about how the Church is the Lord’s primary plan for discipleship, fellowship, and mission for the Christian life. Be encouraged as we consider the gift of the Church on Monday's Mornings with Seth and Deb!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I got a text from a friend this morning asking if I was attending a  “senior lunch.” I don't have a senior in high school right now, so the first thing that entered my mind was a luncheon for senior citizens. Life is cruel when one day you're buying tickets to Bruno Mars in Vegas, and the next day you're contemplating a perceived invitation to an AARP luncheon.    Turns out it was in fact a lunch for moms of high school seniors (and she forgot my son was a junior.) Miscommunication? Yes. Reality check that none of us are getting any younger? Again, yes.

Before school a few days ago, I overheard my first-grader arguing with his 16-year-old brother, Brett. It was obvious my little one was getting more and more annoyed at the antics of his older brother and was about to lose it. Finally, in a moment of utter fury, my little one said to Brett in his most indignant voice, “you're not one of father Abraham's many sons.”  It took all I had not to burst out laughing as I thought to myself, tell me you're growing up in a Christian home without telling me you're growing up in a Christian home. You know a lot about a person when their biggest zinger in a verbal fight ends with a reference to a VBS song.  But there's something to be said about a faith that's so automatic, it comes out without even thinking. And that's a big part of why we're starting Monday morning podcasts TODAY!

BEST QUOTES “I want people who lead communities within churches to feel seen and to feel equipped and empowered to get in on what God's doing through those groups.” – Jared Musgrove “The guys that try to go it alone, whether it's planning a church or leading a company ends up burning out really quick.” – Jared Musgrove “Our entire mission is to equip and empower college men to live faithfully and lead courageously. I want these guys going into church planting and training. I want these guys to be elders in churches and to be leading companies with Christian conviction.” – Jared Musgrove “Honestly, I get more pastoral insight from fiction books than I do from pastoral books most of the time.” – Jared Musgrove “I think the greatest way I can lead my kids is just remembering what it was like to grow up.” – Jared Musgrove “There is no one size fits all way for designing transformational groups within the church. It is an art, not a science.” – Jared Musgrove RECOMMENDED RESOURCES A Short Guide to Groups: The Art of Leading Community by Jared Musgrove and Justin Elafros Dictionary of Biblical Imagery by Leland Ryken, James C.
