One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this September 22nd episode, we mark day 265 of our journey through Scripture, with just 100 days left in the year. Today, Hunter guides us through powerful passages from Daniel 9 and 10, Psalm 123, and Luke 5. We reflect on Daniel's heartfelt prayers, angelic encounters, and the overwhelming weight of prophetic visions—reminding us of the strength we find in God's presence and touch. In Luke's Gospel, we witness the calling of the disciples, miraculous healings, and Jesus' radical message of forgiveness and new life. Join us as we meditate on God's unfailing love, receive encouragement for our challenges ahead, and center our lives on Christ's peace and mercy. Whether you're feeling strong or in need of a “second touch,” today's episode invites you to open your heart and receive the hope and strength God freely offers. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He gives us a second touch. Daniel was overwhelmed by what he saw—by the vision God gave and by the sheer enormity of what was behind and what was coming ahead. The weight of the call, the ruins of the past, the challenges of the present—all of it left Daniel saying, "My strength is gone. I can hardly breathe." Have you ever felt that way? Staring ahead at what seems impossible, or looking back at the devastation behind, and feeling paralyzed, frightened, unable to move or even catch your breath? If you've ever been there, you are not alone. Daniel was there too. But here's the miracle: God touched Daniel again. The scripture tells us, “Then the one who looked like a man touched me again, and I felt my strength returning. ‘Don't be afraid,' he said, ‘for you are very precious to God. Please be encouraged! Be strong!'” And as Daniel listened to those words, his strength came back and he was ready to listen—ready to go on. That second touch—the reassurance, the presence, the love of God—is what we all desperately need. God's love for Daniel, spoken in comfort and shown through his touch, is the same love he offers to us today. When the road ahead is daunting or when the shame of our past weighs us down, God comes near, offering not just guidance but the very presence and strength we cannot conjure up ourselves. Do you need a second touch from God? Open your hands, even now. Whisper, “Yes, Lord. Thank You.” Let His love, His touch, restore you. His word to Daniel is His word to you: Don't be afraid. You are precious to God. That's a prayer I have for my own soul. It's a prayer I have for my family—for my wife and my daughters and my son. And it's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Marriage is about becoming one—but what does that mean for your money? For many couples, the question of whether to combine bank accounts or keep them separate is one of the first major financial decisions they face. While the Bible doesn't speak directly to checking accounts, it does give us a clear picture of what unity, trust, and stewardship look like in marriage.What Scripture Says About OnenessIn Mark 10:7–8, Jesus says, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”That phrase, “one flesh,” is more than physical—it describes an emotional, spiritual, and practical union. Marriage is about sharing a life together, and that includes finances. The Bible doesn't command couples to have joint accounts, but it does call us to transparency, mutual submission, and faithful stewardship.Joint accounts are one practical way to live this out, offering a structure of accountability and openness. Separate accounts, while not inherently sinful, can sometimes become symbolic of separate lives if not handled with care.A story from a banker friend drives this home. One day, a woman came into the bank distraught after discovering her husband had a secret credit card with thousands of dollars in gambling debt. The shock wasn't just about money—it was about broken trust.Financial infidelity is devastating because it goes deeper than dollars and cents. It damages the foundation of unity. Ephesians 5:21 reminds us: “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” That submission extends to our financial decisions.Practical Ways to Build Financial UnitySo, what does financial oneness look like in real life? Here are a few steps couples can take:1. Hold Regular Money DatesSet aside time each month to review your budget, giving, and goals. These conversations don't have to be stressful—they can strengthen communication and provide alignment in your marriage.2. Build a Shared Emergency FundSaving three to six months of expenses together demonstrates trust and unity. It says, “We're in this together, no matter what comes.”3. Use Tools That Foster UnityBudgeting apps like the FaithFi app can help you and your spouse manage money together with clarity and purpose. Built on biblical principles, it's more than just software—it's a discipleship tool.Why Financial Unity MattersFinancial unity is ultimately about more than accounts and numbers. It's about our hearts. When couples pursue oneness in their finances, they reflect the greater reality of Christ's love for His church—a bond marked by trust, sacrifice, and faithfulness.Your bank account setup matters far less than your posture toward one another. Ask yourselves:Are we making decisions together?Are we being transparent and honest?Are we aligning our finances with God's purposes?When the answer is yes, your marriage becomes a living testimony of the Gospel.A Bigger Vision for StewardshipAt the end of the day, combining or separating accounts isn't the ultimate issue. The greater call is to live as one—financially, emotionally, and spiritually—while stewarding God's resources faithfully.And if you'd like to go deeper in this journey, I invite you to become a FaithFi Partner.

Like those in Corinth, many churches today have elevated spiritual gifts, especially speaking in tongues, as the mark of salvation causing contention and disunity in the body. Paul corrects this by clarifying that there are diversities of gifts, distributed by the Holy Spirit for the edifying of the church. Some, not all, have particular gifts, including speaking in tongues. All His children have some gift for the building up of the body. The greatest gift is the love He poured out on our hearts and without that we have nothing.

God's spirit—His power and influence—is a power we can't even begin to comprehend. His spirit was introduced to us as the mighty power of His will in Genesis 1:1-3 as His creative process began with “Let there be light." This same power and influence is described as taking root in us in Ephesians 1:13 where it says we were sealed with God's spirit through the salvation of Jesus. With all of the marvel of this mighty power of God working in us, how is it that we can "quench" it? Why would we ever even think of doing such a thing and most importantly, what do the Scriptures tell us about handling this awesome privilege with reverence and humility? The biblical warning from 1 Thessalonians 5:19 to “not quench the spirit” has important meaning in regard to Christian conduct in our day. Quenching the powerful and transformative force of God's spirit means stifling or extinguishing that divine influence through neglect, disobedience or self-deception. Critical elements for avoiding this spiritually destructive behavior were laid out by the Apostle Paul in his previous teachings about rejoicing, prayer and gratitude, as these behaviors “fuel” the spirit. Conversely, bitterness, distraction and indifference can suppress it. The Bible provides vivid metaphors—like hiding a lamp under a basket or forgetting one's reflection in a mirror—to illustrate how spiritual neglect can lead to eventual quenching of the spirit. While there is a difference between grieving the spirit (through harmful attitudes or behaviors) and quenching it (cutting off its influence entirely) we as disciples are urged to remain attentive and disciplined, feeding the spirit through active faith and humility. Key Takeaways: • To "quench the spirit" means extinguishing God's influence through neglect or resistance. • Joy, prayer and gratitude are essential "spiritual fuels" that keep the spirit alive. • "Grieving the spirit" through such things as bitterness or gossip can lead to quenching if left unchecked. • Distraction and indifference are common modern threats to spiritual attentiveness. • Active faith involves doing, not just hearing—responding to conviction, not suppressing it. • The armor of God, especially the shield of faith, helps extinguish Satan's attacks. In this context, "quenching" is a good thing! • God's mercy ensures even a flickering ember of faith is precious and worth fanning into flame.

High on Maine's Mt. Katahdin, the Appalachian Trail ends in a place wrapped in mystery—and haunted by a storm spirit. Hikers whisper about sudden fog, eerie moans in the wind, and the sense of eyes watching from the Knife's Edge ridge. The Wabanaki people know who it is: Pamola, the ancient birdlike guardian said to punish anyone who dares disrespect the mountain. Is he a cryptid, a god, or something else? Spectral moose sightings, violent storms, and eerie winds all carry his name. And when skies turn from clear to chaos in a heartbeat, locals say it's Pamola reminding you this isn't just a climb—it's sacred ground.

What happens when the ones we love most pass away—but don't really leave? Joey from Greensboro, North Carolina, shares his chilling yet heartfelt encounters with his late father. After his dad's passing from melanoma in 2015, strange activity began filling their home. First, it was the unmistakable sound of his father's whistle—a sound his dogs always recognized. Joey heard it, and soon after, so did his girlfriend from across the house. Then came the voice. Joey's father called his name. His mother also heard it that very same day. Even the family's dog seemed to sense his presence, often sitting and staring silently at the urn that held his ashes. But the most shocking proof came years later. A friend brought over an SLS camera during a casual paranormal experiment. What they captured stopped Joey cold: a figure sitting in the exact spot where his dad's favorite recliner once sat. When Joey reached out, the figure reached back. For Joey, it wasn't about fear—it was confirmation. His father was still there, watching, protecting, reminding them that love doesn't die. #RealGhostStories #Afterlife #ParanormalEvidence #GhostCaughtOnCamera #FamilySpirit #GuardianSpirit #GhostStoriesOnline #HauntedHouse #ParanormalActivity #FathersSpirit Love real ghost stories?

Some spirits linger not to frighten—but to protect. Randy from Iowa shares a deeply personal story about his grandmother's passing just days before the birth of his son. While hospitalized, she confided in family that she feared for the baby's safety. Tragically, she died soon after—but her warning proved true when Randy's newborn developed severe lung problems and had to be airlifted for emergency care. Against the odds, he survived. The family later moved into Randy's grandmother's old home, where his son slept in her former bedroom. There, the baby was always calm—never crying, never restless. It felt as though someone invisible comforted him through the night. As the child grew older, his parents began to notice unusual moments: he would watch unseen figures move through the house, giggle at something they couldn't see, and eventually point to a photo on the wall, saying, “That's Nana.” For Randy, it was proof that his grandmother kept her promise—watching over the boy she never got to meet in life. #RealGhostStories #GuardianSpirit #Afterlife #ParanormalEncounter #GrandmaSpirit #GhostStoriesOnline #Supernatural #HauntedHouse #ParanormalActivity #FamilySpirit Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Before it became a sprawling 12,000-square-foot estate, the Cheney Mansion in Jerseyville, Illinois, began as the humble Red House in 1827. Built as the area's first frame house, it stood with just two rooms upstairs and two rooms downstairs. Yet even in its early days, the property became more than just a family home. It served as a stagecoach stop for weary travelers, a lively tavern, a doctor's office, and even a bank. Most remarkably, its cistern is believed to have hidden enslaved people seeking freedom along the Underground Railroad—adding a powerful layer of human history to its walls. Over the decades, the Red House grew into the Cheney Mansion, a place of grandeur and prominence in Jerseyville. Thanks to the tireless efforts of local volunteers, it remains in remarkable condition today. But some believe that its well-preserved beauty is only part of the story. Many say the spirits of former residents and visitors never left. Among them is P.D. Cheney himself, whose presence is often felt within the mansion's historic halls. Reports of unexplained sounds, mysterious figures, and an undeniable energy have convinced many that the mansion is still very much alive with ghostly activity. From stagecoach guests who never checked out to long-past owners still keeping watch, the Cheney Mansion is a site where history and the paranormal intertwine. This is Part Two of our conversation. Today on The Grave Talks, we sit down with Roger Scheffel to explore the incredible history and chilling hauntings of this Illinois landmark. #HauntedHouse #HauntedIllinois #TheGraveTalks #GhostStories #HauntedHistory #HauntedMansion #UndergroundRailroad #HistoricHauntings #HauntedPlaces #UnexplainedPhenomena Love real ghost stories?

Hearing God’s voice can often feel like one of the greatest challenges in our faith journey. We long for neon signs or audible words, yet Scripture reminds us that God speaks in quieter, deeper ways. In today’s devotional, Jaime Hampton, host of Praying Christian Women, shares her own story of seeking God’s wisdom for an important family decision and learning that His voice doesn’t always come in the way we expect. Sometimes His silence invites us into deeper prayer, broader community, or even waiting until the timing is right. Isaiah 30:21 gives us this comforting assurance: “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” We can trust that as we pursue Him with all our hearts, God will faithfully guide us — even when the path isn’t perfectly clear. When the noise of life grows too loud, remember: you don’t have to rely on your ability to perfectly discern God’s voice. You can rely on His ability to guide you in love. Today's Bible Reading: “Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’” – Isaiah 30:21 (NIV) Key Takeaways God’s voice may not be audible, but it is always available through Scripture, prayer, and the Spirit’s leading. His silence doesn’t mean absence — often it’s an invitation to wait, listen, and grow in trust. We can rest in the truth that God’s guidance will always come at the right time. Even if we miss a step, God is faithful to redirect us back onto His path. Let’s Pray Loving Father, we praise You for being El Roi, the God Who Sees. We confess that we often let the noise and busyness of life drown out Your voice. Attune our hearts to hear You clearly and help us walk confidently in the direction You lead. If we step off course, gently correct us and guide us back into Your will. In Jesus’ name, amen. Calls to Action Start your morning by asking God: “What do You want me to hear today?” Write down moments when you sense God’s prompting and compare them with Scripture.

Romans 7:6 — What does it mean to be in the Spirit? In this sermon on Romans 7:6 titled “In the Spirit or in the Flesh?” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones shares that it means the Christian lives in a totally new way than before. He says that to be in the Spirit is to live in Christ and renewed daily in His power. He contrasts the new life with the old life of sin and bondage under the law. The law was good, but because of human sin and depravity, it brought only condemnation. Jesus is better than the law. Jesus died for His people and makes them new creatures in Christ if they believe in His gospel. Jesus brings commandments that are not burdensome, but rather they are freeing. The glory of this new life is in living in the Holy Spirit as children of God. Christians are no longer slaves to sin and immorality. The most important question then is how does one live this life? The answer is by believing in the gospel of Christ, and in His death, burial, and resurrection as the only means of salvation and peace with God. This message is the only way of true peace and joy with God.
804 A Demon Cannon Cause The Blind to See, A Guided Christian Meditation on John 10:19-21 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ. Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing. If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes. Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation: Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation NET 19 Another sharp division took place among the Jewish people because of these words. 20 Many of them were saying, “He is possessed by a demon and has lost his mind! Why do you listen to him?” 21 Others said, “These are not the words of someone possessed by a demon. A demon cannot cause the blind to see, can it?” NASB 19 Dissension occurred again among the Jews because of these words. 20 Many of them were saying, “He has a demon and is insane. Why do you listen to Him?” 21 Others were saying, “These are not the words of one who is demon-possessed. A demon cannot open the eyes of those who are blind, can it?” Reflection on Scripture: When Jesus made audacious claims about his role and about his power, he was accused of being possessed by a demon. This was meant to be an accusation that would make his comments illegitimate. This was an attack on his divinity by accusing him of being part of the opposition. This was among the most extreme inaccuracies in the history of inaccuracies, to accuse God of being possessed by the Devil. This is not just a claim that was meant to be over the top, it was meant to discredit the true works of Jesus Christ. The logical and principled teachings of Jesus were compared to the confused evil theological ramblings of a demon. Another thing that makes this so impactful is because evil does exist. Each of us must grapple with forces of evil acting in the world. We encounter ideas inspired by evil in public discourse and societal perspectives. It would be unsafe to assume that evil is metaphoric or that the devil doesn't really exist. It is oft repeated that the Devil tries to convince us he does not exist. But he does exist. Just as God inspires our minds with the still small voice of His spirit of peace, the enemy will whisper words of destruction, self hatred, temptation to sin and many other evil whisperings. The chatter of your mind that discourages you does not come from God. With that said it is not necessary we live in fear of that. It is a reality of the world that Satan has existed the whole time, even in moments when we feel the peace of God the devil has existed. When we feel the joys of love of family, or the joy in Grace, the feeling of victory in the Lord, the devil existed then too. When Jesus healed and performed miracles, the devil existed then too. We cannot turn down the level of the darkness, but we can look to the light and the darkness will vanish. The whisperings of the evil one are always a lie, just as they were in this scripture. Jesus is the source of true light and will always win in the long run. If we turn to the light, the darkness must flee and eventually be destroyed.

What happens when two podcast hosts walk into a metaphysical expo and get their lives read like open books, by a complete stranger? In this eye-opening (and slightly soul-rearranging) episode of The Skeptic Metaphysicians, Will and Karen sit down at Spirit Fest USA with intuitive spiritual guide and psychic medium Jax, whose healing gifts are as vibrant as her Florida sunshine energy. What begins as a casual chat quickly turns into a full-blown intuitive intervention as Jax channels personalized guidance from “the team”; spiritual guides who seem to know Will and Karen a little too well. From messages about balancing relationships and work, to the healing power of reclaiming sacred time and setting boundaries, Jax doesn't hold back. This impromptu reading reveals truths so raw and accurate that it leaves everyone stunned...and maybe just a little teary-eyed. But this episode isn't just about Will and Karen's metaphysical tune-up. Jax shares her journey of creating a safe and sacred space in Fort Pierce, Florida, where seekers can explore spirituality without judgment. She dives into the power of remote readings, past life regressions, yoga, sound healing, and her mission to collaborate (not compete) with other healers to spread light and healing globally. Whether you're in need of a spiritual reset, curious about mediumship, or just enjoy watching Will get lovingly called out by the Universe… this one is not to be missed.In This Episode:Why Jax created PU (Simple. Pure.) as a sanctuary for spiritual explorationThe importance of intuitive time-blocking and self-care in relationshipsA live intuitive reading for Will (and later for Karen) that strikes straight to the soulHow spiritual teams work behind the scenes to guide our growthRemote healing, classes, and why comfort in your own space can amplify energy workThe magic of finding your spiritual community, whether in person or onlineConnect with Jax: Website: https://semppure.comBook readings, breathwork sessions, yoga classes, sound healings, and moreAvailable online or in-person at her sacred healing space in Fort Pierce, FloridaTakeaways for the Seekers:You are not alone.

Romans 7:6 — What does it mean to be in the Spirit? In this sermon on Romans 7:6 titled “In the Spirit or in the Flesh?” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones shares that it means the Christian lives in a totally new way than before. He says that to be in the Spirit is to live in Christ and renewed daily in His power. He contrasts the new life with the old life of sin and bondage under the law. The law was good, but because of human sin and depravity, it brought only condemnation. Jesus is better than the law. Jesus died for His people and makes them new creatures in Christ if they believe in His gospel. Jesus brings commandments that are not burdensome, but rather they are freeing. The glory of this new life is in living in the Holy Spirit as children of God. Christians are no longer slaves to sin and immorality. The most important question then is how does one live this life? The answer is by believing in the gospel of Christ, and in His death, burial, and resurrection as the only means of salvation and peace with God. This message is the only way of true peace and joy with God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/603/29

Pastor Marshall Ochs | September 21, 2025In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from Obadiah. God condemns Edom for exploiting Judah's suffering during the fall of Jerusalem. Through vivid prophetic imagery and the theme of "brother against brother," Obadiah's message expands beyond ancient history, calling out all forms of betrayal, pride, and injustice between people. This ancient prophecy still speaks today, urging us to reject the way of Edom and embrace the way of Christ—where brothers restore, carry burdens, and sow to the Spirit.
Enjoy this replay from September 21, 2025, with Guest Speaker Jim Baker as shares that finances are a tool for establishing the Kingdom and how you can use your resources to bring His world into this world.
This message unpacks what it truly means to be a Christian—more than a title, it is a supernatural encounter with God that brings new birth, repentance, and transformation from within. Through Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus, we see that to follow Christ is to be born of the Spirit, given a new heart, and made alive to God's kingdom. Christians belong to Christ, living as people of His kingdom, which is not political or geographical but spiritual and present wherever Jesus reigns in hearts. The name “Christian” should reflect holiness, devotion, and Christlikeness, as our lives bear witness to the reality of God's rule within us. ______________________________________________________________________________________ NEW HERE?

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“Official Christianity, of late years, has been having what is known ‘as a bad press'. We are constantly assured that the churches are empty because preachers insist too much upon doctrine — dull dogma as people call it. The fact is the precise opposite. It is the neglect of dogma that makes for dullness. The Christian faith is the most exciting drama that ever staggered the imagination of man — and the dogma is the drama…. That God should play the tyrant over man is a dismal story of unrelieved oppression; that man should play the tyrant over man is the usual dreary record of human futility; but that man should play the tyrant over God and find him a better man than himself is an astonishing drama indeed. Any journalist, hearing of it for the first time, would recognize it as news; those who did hear it for the first time actually called it news, and good news at that; though we are likely to forget that the word Gospel ever meant anything so sensational.”~Dorothy L. Sayers (1893-1957), novelist and playwright, in “The Greatest Drama Ever Staged” “Let us become like Christ, since Christ became like us. He assumed the worse that He might give us the better; He became poor that we through His poverty might be rich.”~Gregory of Nazianzus (329-390), 4th century church leader and theologian “Once, when Paul came to Athens, a mighty city, he found in the temple many ancient altars, and he went from one to the other and looked at them all, but he did not kick down a single one of them with his foot. Rather he stood up in the middle of the marketplace and said they were nothing but idolatrous things and begged the people to forsake them; yet he did not destroy one of them by force. When the Word took hold of their hearts, they forsook them of their own accord, and in consequence the thing fell of itself…. For the Word created heaven and earth and all things; the Word must do this thing, and not we poor sinners.”~Martin Luther, at his return to Wittenberg under an Imperial death threat (March 10, 1522) “I would propose that the subject of the ministry in this house, as long as this platform shall stand, and as long as this house shall be frequented by worshippers, shall be the person of Jesus Christ. I am never ashamed to avow myself a Calvinist; I do not hesitate to take the name of Baptist; but if I am asked what is my creed, I reply, ‘It is Jesus Christ.' …Christ Jesus, who is the sum and substance of the gospel, who is in himself all theology, the incarnation of every precious truth, the all-glorious personal embodiment of the way, the truth, and the life.”~Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892), his first words at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London “As for me, my charter is Jesus Christ, the inviolable charter is His cross and His death and resurrection, and faith through Him.”~Ignatius of Antioch (c. 35 - c. 107), student of John the Apostle “…upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.”~Jesus in Matthew 16:18SERMON PASSAGEselected passages (ESV)Romans 1 16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous man shall live by faith.” 1 Corinthians 1 18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God…. 22 For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 1 Corinthians 2 1 And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. 2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, 4 and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.1 Corinthians 15 1 Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, 2 and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. Galatians 2 20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Colossians 1 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints, 5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel, 6 which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and increasing—as it also does among you, since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth.

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | September 21, 2025 Referenced Scripture: Romans 7:21-25, Romans 8:5-8, John 16:8, Romans 8:13, 1 Thessalonians 5:19, Ephesians 4:30, 2 Corinthians 10:5, James 5:16, Galatians 6:7-9 Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together, pg. 112 Sin demands to have a man by himself. It withdraws him from the community. The more isolated a person is, the more destructive will be the power of sin over him…. Sin wants to remain unknown. It shuns the light. In the darkness of the unexpressed it poisons the whole being of a person. Reflection Questions: Romans 7:21-25 21 So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!... 1. In Romans 7, Paul describes his internal battle with sin. How would you describe your own battle to overcome sin in your life? 2. Paul uses the term “flesh” to describe what we are battling against. How would you define “flesh” as Paul uses it in the Bible? 3. The battle is between our flesh and the Spirit. Paul says the battleground is the MIND. Why is the mind so important? How does sin often start in our mind(thoughts)? Explain. Romans 8:13For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. 4. How can we put to death sin in our life by the power of the Holy Spirit? John 16:8When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong (conviction) about sin and righteousness and judgment… Romans 8:1Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 5. What is the difference between Conviction and Condemnation? Why is conviction a good thing and condemnation a bad thing? How can we experience conviction while at the same time not experience condemnation? 6. What does it mean to have our mind set on the “flesh”? Describe. Give examples. 7. What does it mean to have our mind set on the “Spirit”? What are things that the Spirit draws our attention to? 8. What is your mind set on? How can we know what our mind is set on?

Revelation 2:8-11 ESV 8 “And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write: ‘The words of the first and the last, who died and came to life.9 “‘I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich) and the slander of those who say that they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan. 10 Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life. 11 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who conquers will not be hurt by the second death.'

Few books of the Bible stir as much fascination, or fear, as Revelation. This message shows us how Jesus unveils Himself, remains present with His people, and speaks words that both comfort and challenge us to live for His kingdom. Join us as we begin this journey of hearing what the Spirit is saying to the church today.
Dear friends in Christ, welcome to this podcast from All Saints Episcopal Church in Portland. All Saints is a loving, welcoming parish serving Southeast Portland for over a century. Our purpose is to celebrate God's love, seek and serve Christ in all persons, and go forth into the world rejoicing in the power of the Spirit!Today, we invite you to join the Very Rev. Andria Skornik as she preaches the gospel, and explores the mysteries of God in our modern world.
Bearing good fruit and living out Jesus' values are what glorify God. The world longs for what Spirit-led lives offer. The fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control shows who we are and indicates if we're living as God intends. When led by the Spirit, doing right becomes instinctive, not just rule-based obedience. In this 9-part series, we will dive into each of the fruit of the Spirit and what living from those means for us as His Church and for those who desperately need Jesus.
Hebrews 10:17-18 // In Christ, our sins are fully forgiven and forgotten by God.Anchor of the Soul // Michael Crosswhite
The Holy Spirit continues to guide God's elect in the advance of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Cornelius having been primed, the Spirit now readies Peter for his part. In this passage we begin with Peter's prayer as he walks on a housetop, and the vision which he sees. Then there is Peter's pain, his visceral reaction to the prospect of eating unclean food. Then there is his perplexity, his bewilderment as to the meaning of the heavenly vision. Next we come to Peter's prompt, as the Holy Spirit himself gives further direction as to what is taking place and must take place. All this feeds into Peter's progress, as he welcomes Cornelius' servants, the wall of separation between Jew and Gentile beginning to crack under the pressure of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit's arrival at Pentecost marked a pivotal moment in history, transforming how believers relate to God. This divine presence works through powerful symbols like wind (representing life-giving power) and fire (signifying purification and passion). The Spirit fills believers continuously, empowering them with spiritual gifts to glorify God and fulfill Jesus' mission. Rather than trying to control or manipulate the Spirit's work, believers are called to hunger for His genuine presence, allowing Him to bring unity, draw people to God, and transform lives from within. Through the Holy Spirit, God provides power, love, and self-discipline to accomplish His purposes in the world.
Main Point: You Belong to Christ To Serve in the Spirit Text: Romans 7:4-6 Outline: A. Died to the Law in Christ B. The works of the law C. Serving in the Spirit
So what is the indwelling and work of the Holy Spirit in believers? He gives new life, sanctifies, guides, assures, and sustains us through our trials. Without the Spirit, Christianity would be an empty shell. The indwelling of God is a unique hallmark of the Christian faith. Come ask, seek, and find. Come, listen to Pastor Daniel as he draws wisdom from the gospel of Romans 8:9-11, 16 John 14:16-17, and 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 to deliver his sermon.
The work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer is that he is “The Lord, the giver of life.” In particular, he who gives life (to everyone) is also he who renews or regenerates that life (within the believer) and he who perfects that life in the age to come. The renewal or regeneration of life is accomplished especially in union with Christ, and it is the Spirit who joins us, sustains us, gifts us, and perfects us in that union. Pastor Edmund Fong preaches.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Before it became a sprawling 12,000-square-foot estate, the Cheney Mansion in Jerseyville, Illinois, began as the humble Red House in 1827. Built as the area's first frame house, it stood with just two rooms upstairs and two rooms downstairs. Yet even in its early days, the property became more than just a family home. It served as a stagecoach stop for weary travelers, a lively tavern, a doctor's office, and even a bank. Most remarkably, its cistern is believed to have hidden enslaved people seeking freedom along the Underground Railroad—adding a powerful layer of human history to its walls. Over the decades, the Red House grew into the Cheney Mansion, a place of grandeur and prominence in Jerseyville. Thanks to the tireless efforts of local volunteers, it remains in remarkable condition today. But some believe that its well-preserved beauty is only part of the story. Many say the spirits of former residents and visitors never left. Among them is P.D. Cheney himself, whose presence is often felt within the mansion's historic halls. Reports of unexplained sounds, mysterious figures, and an undeniable energy have convinced many that the mansion is still very much alive with ghostly activity. From stagecoach guests who never checked out to long-past owners still keeping watch, the Cheney Mansion is a site where history and the paranormal intertwine. Today on The Grave Talks, we sit down with Roger Scheffel to explore the incredible history and chilling hauntings of this Illinois landmark. #HauntedHouse #HauntedIllinois #TheGraveTalks #GhostStories #HauntedHistory #HauntedMansion #UndergroundRailroad #HistoricHauntings #HauntedPlaces #UnexplainedPhenomena Love real ghost stories?
