In this message, Pastor Bo reminds us that Christmas is about far more than presents—it’s about pursuing God’s presence. Sharing his salvation story from 1992 in a small, unimpressive church in Bed-Stuy Brooklyn, he shows that it isn’t polish, production, or appearances that change lives, but the undeniable presence of God. In a space marked by crackling sound systems and unremarkable surroundings, the anointing was real—and it transformed hearts, including his own father’s at an Easter altar call. Drawing from Genesis 3:8, Pastor Bo teaches that God’s original desire was to walk with humanity, and that the greatest tragedy of the Fall was the loss of His presence. The greatest gift of salvation, then, is its restoration. The anointing does what no person can do, accelerating lives into God’s purpose. The invitation is simple and powerful: be baptized in the Holy Spirit, intentionally cultivate His presence, and live so close to God that you’re always one drop away from being overwhelmed by Him.(00:00) Satan’s Lie: “You’re Hard to Receive”(08:48) Bitterness, Algorithms, and Keeping a Soft Heart(16:30) Eden, the Fall, and Restored Intimacy with God(20:20) Presence vs. Performance: The Story of CityLight Church(30:08) Baptism in the Holy Spirit and Undignified Hunger for God(46:00) Adoption, Generosity, and God Who Hearshttps://citylightnyc.com/
Jesus gave a parable of a farmer planting seed in Mark 4, and He mentioned the kinds of soil where seed can be planted. Three kinds of soil kept the seed from doing well. One kind of soil caused the seed to produce. The four kinds of soil refer to four kinds of people. Which soil are you?

Send me a Text Message!In this two verses Jesus deals with an area of brokennes, sin and failure that is all too often all too common in our world today. Divorce. He goes from adultery to divorce. In this episode we'll start by talking about marriage and the heart of a wedding and from there will be a challenge to guard your heart. But here's the deal, we don't guard our hearts by hardening our hearts...because when it comes to the pain of divorce...Everyone needs a soft heart.

In our conversation, I talk with Jimmy Darts author of his new book Undercover KindnessSaying Yes to Love, No to Fear, and Embracing the Life-Changing Power of Ordinary Generosity. Jimmy is a star in the world of social media best known for his heartwarming "random acts of kindness" and "giveback" videos that inspire more than twenty million followers to pay it forward and spread positivity in the world. He is GoFundMe's top organizer of fundraisers started for others, and his work has been featured in media outlets including CNN, Fox News, and Today. We discuss the transformative power of kindness, the importance of maintaining a soft heart, and the role of questions in personal growth. We explore how to navigate disappointment with hope, the significance of generosity, and the beauty in everyday life. Our discussion emphasizes the value of attention and presence in relationships, the necessity of forgiveness for personal freedom, and the idea of living an integrated life filled with childlike faith and purpose. Takeaways Questions can be a catalyst for change. Maintaining a soft heart is essential for personal growth. Disappointment can lead to deeper hope and understanding. Generosity is a key to living a fulfilling life. We must actively seek beauty in the world around us. Paying attention to others can transform relationships. Childlike faith allows us to embrace life fully. Forgiveness is crucial for our own freedom. Living an integrated life means valuing every moment and interaction.

In this episode, I wrestle with the topic of people leaving the church for a variety of reasons and how I've evolved in my thinking about it. I also talk about why I choose to stay, and the "wrestle" many of us have with our minds and hearts in this space. This includes a conscious decision to make continuous efforts to keep our heart soft. I hope it is helpful for those who want to do the same.
ABOUT THIS EPISODEIf you've ever said “yes” while your whole body whispered “please don't,” this one's for you. In Soft Heart, Sacred No, we're rewriting the story that says your kindness requires self-abandonment. I'm walking you through the mindset shifts, boundary scripts, and energetic check-ins that let you protect your peace without burning bridges.We'll talk about the difference between love-driven limits and people-pleasing, how to honor your capacity in real time, and why your no is not a rejection—it's a redirection toward what actually matters. Expect practical language you can use today, plus a gentle nudge to grab the Response & Responsibility Checklist to keep your nervous system calm while you set clear, loving boundaries.By the end, you'll feel grounded, guilt-free, and ready to speak from truth—with a soft heart and a sacred no.KEY TAKEAWAYSBoundaries Are Love in Action. Saying no protects your energy and preserves the relationship.Guilt Isn't a Green Light. Feeling guilty doesn't mean you're wrong; it means you're growing.Capacity Over Courtesy. Your bandwidth is a fact, not a flaw—lead with it.Script It, Then Say It. Prepare one loving line you can deliver calmly when requests pop up.THE SELF-LOVE 2-STEP: HONORING YOUR SACRED NOBefore you answer, come home to you. This quick, repeatable ritual helps you check alignment before commitments lock in, so your yes stays powerful and your no stays peaceful.✨ Step 1: Pause + Gut Check Take 10–30 seconds. Breathe. Ask: Does this align with my values and priorities? Am I saying yes from desire—or obligation? What's the true cost to my time, energy, and peace? Your body knows. If it feels tight, heavy, or rushed, that's information.

Luke 16: 1-9 RMC's Susan Scott preached this week on what Jesus was trying to do when he spoke in parables. The parables Jesus spoke in are often confusing, indirect, and seldom leave the listener with clear answers to their questions. Why won't Jesus get to the point? However, this storytelling tactic forces the listener to actually listen, ponder, and wrestle in their minds with content of the story. The settings and people in the stories have familiar jobs and roles in Jewish society to draw in the listener, but their unexpected actions require a level of engagement for the listener that precludes the audience from "zoning out". Jesus primarily used two types of parable. One to undercut and derail the accusations of his detractors, and the other to prepare his followers for the radically new kind of kingdom Jesus was ushering in that had nothing to do with their current political subjugation. Furthermore, the parables of Jesus, regardless of the audience, at the end had a punchline that subverted expectations and taught valuable lessons to those with ears to hear. In parables, Jesus told the religious leaders that their obsession with following the law was all a hollow show without any sincere connection to God's will for people to live. Christ's followers in turn were called to live a life of soft hearts and hard feet. A life full of sacrifice, suffering, and radical gift giving that will not make sense to the world, but shows God's love in its fullness . We too must emulate our spiritual forebears and wrestle with these parables so that we may learn to also live with soft hearts and hard feet.

There are a lot of ways that we can find ourselves hardened to either follow the voice of the Lord, or even love people well. The scary thing is, if we find ourselves in a place of a hard heart, we often don't even realize we have one. This is why it's important to maintain a soft heart before the Lord, so that in His kindness, we can receive His guidance and even correction. In this message, we're going to discuss this important posture, and how we can make sure we're found in a place of welcoming the Lord in our lives, and not pushing Him away.Visit us online at http://www.fathershouseportland.org

In 1966, Jackie Pullinger left the UK on a boat, aged 22 and with just £10 in her pocket, not knowing where she'd get off. Docking in Hong Kong, she sensed God saying that was the place. Her work in the Walled City of Kowloon saw triad gang members come to faith, girls rescued out of brothels, and thousands of drug addicts over the ensuing decades being set free. That story was told in the best-selling ‘Chasing the Dragon', and she's still in Hong Kong with a network of faithful workers, ministering to many more broken people, living by faith and trusting God to provide for their needs.
