Podcasts about spiritual hunger

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. And here is a shout-out today to Steve & Susan Webb from Apple Valley, MN. Thank you for your partnership in Project23. You're helping others hear the Word and respond to it. This one's for you. Today, we're looking at Mark 4:10-12: And when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parables. And he said to them, “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables, so that “‘they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven.'” — Mark 4:10-12 After teaching the Parable of the Sower, Jesus has a moment alone with the Twelve and a few close followers and they proceed to ask him about the meaning of the parables. And what Jesus says next stops us in our tracks: “To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God… but for those outside, everything is in parables.” It sounds almost backward. Shouldn't Jesus be trying to help people understand the truth? Yes—but he is also revealing a deeper reality. Parables don't just teach truth—they test the heart. To those who are spiritually hungry, they invite. To those who are spiritually calloused, they conceal. Then Jesus, quotes from Isaiah the prophet. An ancient text where God tells the prophet that many will hear and not understand, see and not perceive. Not because God is ever unclear—but because people's hearts are closed to God's message. This is a sobering reminder that spiritual understanding isn't merely intellectual—it's formational. Notice the disciples didn't understand everything either. You will see their confusion about Jesus and the things he did and said all the way through the story. But they did something others didn't do—they asked. They leaned in. They stayed close to Jesus. And because they drew near, Jesus drew them deeper. Jesus wasn't hiding the truth from people. He was inviting those who wanted the truth to come closer. And he still is. If you feel confused about things God says in his Word—don't walk away. Lean in. Ask questions. Listen again. Keep listening to me every day. Take notes. Dig deeper. The difference between seeing and perceiving… hearing and understanding… is the willingness to stay close to Jesus even when we are confused and seeking clarity. So, in your life today, is there a place you feel a little confused about what Jesus is doing? Don't lean out. Lean in. #LeanInToJesus, #SpiritualHunger, #Mark4Devotional ASK THIS: What do Jesus' words reveal about spiritual hunger? When have you felt confused about God but kept listening? Why do some understand God's Word and others don't? How are you currently leaning in to stay close to Jesus? DO THIS: Stay close to Jesus by asking one honest question in prayer today about something you don't understand in his Word. PRAY THIS: Jesus, I don't always understand what you're doing, but I choose to lean in rather than walk away. Open my heart to see and hear your truth. Amen. PLAY THIS: Speak To Me.

I often find that when I'm with a group of parents teaching them about today's youth culture, many wonder if their kids have any interest at all in talking about the Christian Faith, the Bible, and Jesus Christ. There's a commonly held belief that with all the attractive things the world has to offer, kids just don't want to have anything to do with conversations about God. But because we know that all of these other distractions offered by the world can never fulfill one's created purpose to know God, our kids are left feeling empty. I often say that a youth culture landscape littered with brokenness is a landscape ripe for the Gospel. New research from the Barna group should be encouraging to parents who want to see their kids come to know and serve Jesus Christ. In fact, seventy-seven percent of teens are to open to having conversations about God. Should we be surprised? A child's spiritual hunger will continue to grow if they are not filled by experiencing new life in Jesus Christ!

When we are feeling empty or spiritually depressed, or when circumstances make us aware of our weakness, that is a great opportunity to grow in God by turning to Him and asking Him to fill our void. We must be thirsty for God before we drink of His living water (Isa 55:1, John 7:37, Rev 21:6, 22:17). When our soul is full of worldly things we have no room for God, but “blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness (God's Word and Spirit) Presence, for they shall be filled (with God's Presence)” (Matt 5:6). In Psalm 42 the psalmist is depressed and thirsty for the living God (v1-2), so He turns to God to fill him. Inspired by the local scenery, where the river Jordan flows out from Mount Hermon at Banias and tumbles down in waterfalls, he focuses on God, seeing these waters as a picture of God's river of life (v6), and then cries out from the depth of his heart (need) to the depths of God to fill him: “Deep calls unto deep at the noise (sound) of Your waterfalls (of grace)” (v7a). Through His Word, we hear the sound of His river of life flowing to us, and respond by calling out to Him to fill us. As a result: “all Your waves and billows (of love, peace and joy) have gone over me. The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime” (v7b-8). The Oil Miracle (2Kings 1-7), when God filled all the empty vessels that were presented to Him with His Oil (representing the Holy Spirit) reveals that He is willing to fill all the empty parts of our soul with His Spirit, if we turn to Him, present them to Him, and ask Him to fill us. The Oil only stopped flowing when there were no longer any empty vessels to fill. So our empty voids (our awareness of our weakness and need) are a great opportunity to turn to god and be filled.

Pastor Thomas Shepherd | Man-Up Conference 2025 | Saturday Morning, March 22, 2025 - Young Men Split Session

There's a concerning new trend among the emerging generations that offers up evidence of their deep search for meaning and purpose in life. It's known as “shifting”, and it encompasses efforts by young people to escape their earthly presence and reality by transporting their consciousness into alternate realities. Reports from those who track with the trend online tell us that some want to escape into the world of Hogwarts or the Marvel Universe. Practitioners will oftentimes lie on the ground counting backwards while they visualize a desired reality, hoping to transport themselves into that world as an escape from the difficulties of this world. We need to be aware of this trend which not only fosters a desire to escape from the embodied reality we've been given by God, but is a supernatural foothold for the enemy to exploit. What shifters are ultimately searching for is a relationship with God, which should motivate us all the more to point them to Jesus.

Do you desire God, not just do you believe in him? Do you long to be with The creator of the cosmos? Are you feeling religiously obligated to him or do you a hunger for Him? Do you desire Him more than you desire anything else? 1 As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. 2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?[b] 3 My tears have been my food day and night, while they say to me all the day long, “Where is your God?” 4 These things I remember, as I pour out my soul: how I would go with the throng and lead them in procession to the house of God with glad shouts and songs of praise, a multitude keeping festival.

Welcome back to Your Daily Bread Podcast! Dietitian co-hosts Abbie Stasior and Hannah Saenz continue the Isaiah Series and dive into Isaiah 55:1-2. We explore how, just as our bodies crave food and water to sustain us physically, our souls experience spiritual hunger pangs—showing up as anxiety, irritability, or restlessness—reminding us to return to Christ, the Bread of Life. Unlike earthly food and water that satisfy us temporarily, God's living water nourishes us eternally. Join us as we unpack how to recognize spiritual hunger cues in daily life and the difference between earthly sustenance and the eternal satisfaction found in Christ. Take a seat at our table as we break bread, break free from diet culture, and embrace the fullness of God's provision. Subscribe today so you never miss a bite of spiritual nourishment!

In this closing message of the series "Your Kingdom First," Pastor Derrill encourages listeners to recognize that moments of loss and pain are holy opportunities to cultivate holy hunger; evaluate the longings of their soul and align them to God's kingdom; encounter God's unfailing love every day; and stir up and normalize spiritual passion. He challenges Mannahouse to dial up the spiritual hunger in our church to match our passion to the zeal God has for us––undomesticated, fully alive, and awakened!

TVC 674.2: Part 2 of a conversation that began last week with singer, actor, producer, and entertainment legend Pat Boone. Pat stars, along with Michael Learned, Kevin Sorbo, Tom Wopat, and Dean Cain, in the biopic Our Crossroads, a true story of family and faith that is scheduled for release in July 2025. Pat and Kevin Sorbo also both play Thomas Jefferson in The American Miracle, another film that is slated for release later in 2025, while Pat can currently be seen in Reagan and Miracle in the Valley, both of which are available now for viewing on demand through Amazon Prime. Topics this segment include Pat's longtime friendship with Elvis Presley, which began in 1956 and continued until the day The King died in 1977; why Elvis was terribly shy with most people when he wasn't performing onstage; and the time that Elvis met evangelist Oral Roberts, which Pat had arranged at Elvis' request.

Today we will reflect on Genesis 12:1-3, A Hunger for God's Blessings. When we read this important story of God's call to Abram to trust in him and leave his country, people, and family behind to follow him to a place that the Lord was going to show him. The Lord promises to bless Abram and make him a blessing to all nations. Life is not always easy and many of us will face times of struggle, times when it feels like everything is against us. In those times we may hunger to experience God's blessings. We know that Jesus promises never to abandon us, we know we have the presence of the Holy Spirit, and in these promises, we can learn to see how God can use these times as blessings, and then challenge us to be blessings.

Asking God for our “daily bread” is a petition for him to fill our physical and spiritual hunger. Fr. Mike breaks down this simple yet profound petition that reminds us of our reliance on God for all our needs. In this part of the Lord's prayer, we turn to God with childlike hearts, trusting that he will nourish us with all the appropriate material goods and, above all, with the Eucharist. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2828-2837. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

This sermon focuses on the theme of "Spiritual Hunger" and the importance of inviting God into our lives to experience His fullness. It uses the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 from John 6:1-14 to illustrate different perspectives on faith and miracles.

We Want More Week 2 focuses on the theme of spiritual hunger and the disciplines that fuel itThe key message is that the extent to which we experience God is determined by how much we invite Him into our lives. The message was based on the parable of the sower from Luke 8, which illustrates the barriers to spiritual growth and the keys to overcoming them.

Jesus is our good shepherd. He keeps us safe; He sees our needs; He welcomes us back if we stray. But we see people every day who are hurting and spiritually hungry, and worldly things will never fill their spiritual void. It's up to us to point them to the good shepherd—the only One who can meet their needs.

In week one of our new series, We Want More, Pastor Rich emphasizes the importance of spiritual hunger in the life of a believer, stating that we can experience as much of God as we choose. He highlights that true spiritual hunger involves both desire and action, encouraging listeners to actively pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus. Using the Beatitudes and a story from Mark, he illustrates that Jesus responds to spiritual hunger with fulfillment and blessings.

Sunday Morning Message by Pastor Jonah Coyne

In this episode, Strahan Coleman dives deep into the longing of the human heart and the even greater longing of God. He takes us on a personal journey of wrestling with desire, thirst, and the ache to be fully satisfied. Strahan shares how his move to a remote town in New Zealand stripped away the distractions, revealing a profound spiritual hunger within. As he grappled with this, he discovered that our deepest longings can only be met by union and intimacy with the divine. He challenges us to stop trying to numb or ignore our pain and instead, to bring it to God - to co-experience our aches and joys with Him. He paints a vision of a church unafraid of lament, embracing the tension of living in a broken world while anticipating the restoration that only God can bring. This is a conversation that will leave you thirsty - not for the temporary fixes of this world, but for the living water that Jesus offers. So join us as we explore the heights and depths of human desire, and how it points us to the heart of our Creator. Strahan Coleman is a writer, poet, and musician living in Aotearoa, New Zealand with his wife and three young boys. Through years of chronic illness, Strahan discovered a friendship with God filled with vulnerability, honesty and unceasing prayer, and now spends his time teaching and providing spaces of deep, rich, Spirit-led prayer for others through his books, prayer schools and spiritual retreats. In his latest work, "Thirsting: Quenching Our Soul's Deepest Desire," Strahan invites his readers to, like him, learn to transform the ache of our lives into our truest prayers, liberating the fire within us to become our greatest gift - our divine homing beacon.

The Big Idea: Any attempts at finding joy, satisfaction, and fulfillment apart from God always leave us empty. Yes, there may be temporary moments of happiness and perceived satisfaction, but it is never lasting. Millions of people can testify that they never knew real joy until they knew Jesus as Savior and Lord.Main Points:1. As real as our physical hunger is, we have another type of hunger that is just as real. It's spiritual hunger. There is an emptiness that we will attempt to satisfy. Often we will not recognize this hunger is spiritual.2. There is satisfaction found in Christ that cannot be found elsewhere. The sweetness of God's presence, the richness of His grace, and the fellowship with the Holy Spirit bring us to a place of being complete in God. There is no lack. Our needs are being met. Our hearts are full of joy and our lives are at peace with God.3. Jesus did not simply die and rise again so we could gain Heaven. He gave His all so that we could know him and live in a relationship with the living God. It is in this pursuit of knowing and serving God that we find fulfillment.Today's Scripture Verses:Psalm 37:4 - “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”John 6:35 - “Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.”Psalm 63:1-5 - “You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.  I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.  Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.  I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

In this podcast, Pastor Rachelle releases a fiery word on how we can't pick and choose whatever we want from God, but how we must all partake of everything that Jesus died for us. Support the Show.

Too often, we get filled up with spiritual junk, and then we have no room for good spiritual nourishment. The truth is that the hunger that we're feeling is not just in our minds and bodies; it's in our souls. We try to satisfy our hunger with shallow things, yet only closeness with God truly satisfies the deepest part of us.Music: The Podcast IntroMusic by: Music Unlimited from PixabayDirect link: https://pixabay.com/music/beats-the-podcast-intro-111863/

In this episode, we delve into Matthew 5:2-11, commonly known as the Beatitudes, with a specific focus on verse 6, where Jesus proclaims, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." This beatitude serves as a profound invitation to pursue righteousness with a fervent and insatiable hunger. As we meditate on Jesus' words, we invite listeners to join us in prayer, seeking God's grace to ignite within us a deep and unwavering hunger for righteousness. Together, we lift our hearts in prayer, asking God to cultivate within us a spirit that yearns for His righteousness above all else.Thank you for listening to today's message.

Have you ever felt a deep-seated yearning for divine companionship, a sense that something greater is perpetually by your side? This episode, graced by the insightful Cody Andras, author of "Jesus by Her Side," invites you into a heartfelt exploration of this spiritual hunger, as we traverse the remarkable encounters of women with Jesus in the Gospels. Through my own journey of vocational twists and faith-stirred decisions, I uncover the beauty of God's personalized touch in our lives, mirroring the individual moments of faith portrayed in Scripture. Cody's transition from business to bibliology exemplifies the profound importance of laying all our paths before God, affirming His care for each unique stride we take.Tuning in, you'll witness the poignant narrative of Mary Magdalene and her transformative encounter with the resurrected Christ—a story that encourages us to advance in faith, leaving behind the comfort of past spiritual peaks. We discuss the empowering story of Mary and Elizabeth, whose bond exemplifies the support we can find within our own communities amid life's singular trials. These stories serve as an anchor, reaffirming the unwavering truth of God's constancy, even when His presence feels distant or intangible.Embarking on the final moments of our discussion, I invite you to explore the myriad of avenues through which we can connect with Jesus—be it through the whispers of nature, the harmony of music, or the sacred texts that chronicle humanity's intersection with God. We look at the earnestness of biblical women, like the bleeding woman's raw pursuit of healing and Mary and Martha's lessons of service and devotion, imploring you to bring the same sincerity to your own spiritual quest. Whether through Scripture reflection or prayerful solitude, Cody and I share our most cherished practices and resources, ultimately guiding you to a more profound closeness with Jesus that reaches beyond the pages of the Bible.Book: Jesus By Her SideWebsite: codyandras.comBible: She Reads Truth (CSB)Blue Letter BibleAlabaster Beautiful individual Books of the Bible Support the showCheck out our website for more ways to fully connect to God's Word.

When we are hungry, we often fill that thing with the thing that is easiest to obtain. Many of us do not hunger for Jesus because we are pacified by everything else. In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares how we change our appetite to hunger more for Him.
