Revelation 1 gives us a breathtaking vision of Jesus—glorified, powerful, and present—reminding us that a clear view of Him brings clarity to everything else. Written by the Apostle John during persecution, this “unveiling” wasn't about predicting the future, but encouraging faith in the present. Jesus is revealed as the exalted Prophet, Priest, and King who walks among His people and holds the Church close. He sees the Church not as an institution, but as His Body, His Building, and His Bride—imperfect, yet deeply precious to Him.

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Bobby Bosler recounts the recent cross-country move that marked a major transition into the pastorate—and the spiritual insights it sparked. With everything his family owned packed into a single trailer, he reflects on Jesus' words in Matthew 6 about treasure, focus, and true devotion. This convicting challenge invites listeners to evaluate what they're living for and whether their heart is fully invested in heaven.Topics DiscussedTransition to pastoral ministry in Fairmont, WVThe tangible feeling of having all possessions in one trailerMatthew 6:19–24 and the call to lay up treasure in heavenWhat a “single eye” means—and why it mattersIdentifying the pull of materialism and earthly desiresA warning against divided loyalties and serving two mastersThe call to total surrender and singular devotion to ChristKey TakeawaysWhere your treasure is, your heart will inevitably follow—so store it where it's safe.What you focus on shapes every area of your life.A divided focus will always lead to spiritual darkness and dissatisfaction.We can't serve both God and material desires; we must choose our master.A single-minded life requires surrender—and the sustaining grace of God.

In this episode, Emily Perry explores the theme of Workbook Lesson 27 from A Course in Miracles: “Above all else I want to see.” [CE W-27:1] This lesson invites us to embrace a shift in perception, emphasizing the importance of seeing the world through spiritual vision rather than through the distorted lens of the ego. In this Sunday Gathering sermon, you'll learn how the Course encourages us to “undo” our current way of seeing, how to “restore” the spiritual sight that already resides within us, and the vital role of determination in achieving the Course's goal of spiritual vision. This sermon was delivered at a recent Sunday Gathering, which is free and open to all and held on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month.

AM with Evangelist Ariel LopezCan true vision extend beyond what our eyes can see? Explore the profound teachings of Proverbs 29:18 and Mark 8 as we uncover the essence of spiritual vision and its impact on personal and spiritual growth. This episode challenges the conventional understanding of sight, urging listeners to embrace a kingdom vision that fosters faith, compassion, and gratitude—essential elements for witnessing the miraculous. We tackle the subtle yet dangerous influence of pride and sin, comparing them to leaven that can taint our spiritual journey. With Jesus' miraculous healing of the blind man in Bethsaida as our backdrop, we delve into the necessity of developing spiritual insight to fully acknowledge the nature of Christ, leading to revelations akin to those experienced by Peter.Broaden your spiritual horizons by considering the transformative power of overseas missions. Much like regular eye exams, engaging in mission trips offers a fresh lens through which to view God's kingdom. For those called to ministry, these experiences can rejuvenate and expand one's spiritual perspective, connecting with global movements like Global Harvest. By stepping out of familiar surroundings, you open your heart to a divine vision and a calling that transcends personal boundaries. Whether you're planning your first mission trip or reflecting on past journeys, this discussion invites you to explore the limitless possibilities of a spiritually enriched life. Join us in seeking a divine vision that inspires revival and transcends borders.Send us a text Support the show https://www.youtube.com/@charlesgrobinette https://www.instagram.com/charles.g.robinette/ https://author.amazon.com/books https://radicallyapostolic-merch.com www.charlesgrobinette.com

Epistle Reading: Ephesians 2:4-10Brethren, God who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with him, and made us sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God: not because of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.Gospel Reading: Luke 18:35-43At that time, as Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging; and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant. They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by." And he cried, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!" And Jesus stopped, and commanded him to be brought to him; and when he came near, he asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" He said, "Lord, let me receive my sight." And Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

Speaking on our next uncommon virtue, Dan Belshaw looked at 'spiritual vision'. Looking at Paul's letters to the Ephesians and the Romans, we walked through how a spiritual vision for our lives begins with a revelation of Jesus. To gain a spiritual vision, we need to see with different eyes and a new mind. The Higher Road has been a great series so far, which has been most impactful for you?

Fr Tony Percy says that in this passage, Jesus heals the blind man Bartimaeus, demonstrating the power of Christ to restore both physical and spiritual sight while encouraging deeper prayer and faith.

The release of the country album “Cowboy Carter” by Beyoncé this spring caused some surprising controversy.  Some complained Beyoncé, who is Black, shouldn't be dabbling in what many consider a white music genre. At least one radio station in Oklahoma initially refused to play the album's first single, “Texas Hold'em.” Her supporters pointed out that Black Americans have a rich history in country music and cowboy culture. But the incident raised the issue of cultural appropriation: The stealing from one culture by another.  Some say that “imitation is the best form of flattery” and that cultures borrowing from each other only enriches us all. Others argue that while different cultures will always be inspired by and borrow elements from each other, there are times when borrowing crosses the line into theft.  Arguing in favour of the resolution is Monica Harris. She is a TEDx speaker, blogger, and author of The Illusion of Division. She is also Executive Director of the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization committed to bridging the ideological divide in America by focusing on shared values and interests. Arguing against the resolution is Nadra Nittle. She is a reporter for The 19th News, and  has also written for Vox.com, the Los Angeles News Group, and many others. Her books include “Toni Morrison's Spiritual Vision” and “Recognizing Microaggressions.”   Free Munk Members can vote on who they think won this debate on our website, www.munkdebates.com   SOURCES: Beyonce The host of this Munk Debates podcast is Ricki Gurwtiz To sign up for a weekly email reminder for this podcast, send an email to podcast@munkdebates.com.   To support civil and substantive debate on the big questions of the day, consider becoming a Munk Member at https://munkdebates.com/membership This podcast is a project of the Munk Debates, a Canadian charitable organization dedicated to fostering civil and substantive public dialogue - https://munkdebates.com/ Senior Producer: Ricki Gurwitz Producer: Daniel Kitts Editor: Kieran Lynch

  Imagine waking up one day and realizing that your entire perspective on life was blurred, not because of your physical eyesight, but due to a lack of spiritual clarity. This episode of the CityLight Church podcast takes you on a journey of discovering what it truly means to see the world through the eyes of faith. Nathaniel Saint-Eloi, our cherished guest and board member, joins us to explore the profound concept of spiritual vision, drawing wisdom from the healing story in Mark chapter 8. Through personal anecdotes and biblical teachings, we unravel how spiritual clarity can lead to a life of purpose, discernment, and divine favor.   Drawing parallels between undiagnosed vision problems in children and the often-overlooked spiritual stagnation in adults, we highlight the importance of addressing the root causes of our spiritual blindness. With insights from Proverbs 29:18 and the story of Lot, we explore how aligning ourselves with biblical truths over cultural norms can prevent our souls from being compromised by negative influences. This conversation challenges us to reevaluate our perspectives and encourages us to seek a renewed spiritual vision that aligns with God's intentions for our lives.   Stepping out of comfort zones is a recurring theme as we discuss the miracles that await those who embrace faith over fear. Through Nathaniel's prophetic insights and stories of personal courage, we see the transformative power of the Holy Spirit at work. This episode invites you to seek a second touch from the Holy Spirit, promising a season of clarity and deeper connection with God. Whether you're looking to reignite your spiritual journey or seeking guidance in life's chaos, we welcome you to join us and experience the profound message of God's love and grace.

The supernatural gift of discerning of spirits is greatly misunderstood in the body of Christ. Misunderstanding causes this gift not to manifest as often as the Holy Spirit desires. This is the gift you need, if you desire to see into the spirit realm, experiencing visions and going beyond the physical into the glory realm.

In this final episode of the year, contemplate the birth of Jesus from a new perspective. Join us to reflect on the basic message of the Gospel of Luke Chapter 2, focusing on the involvement of shepherds and women to underscore God's message of inclusivity. The main theme of the episode is 'seeing', an act marked by awareness and recognition rather than mere looking. You're encouraged to rediscover your faith, move towards trust, surrender, service, and continually return to the grace at the heart of your belief. May you be surprised by the unanticipated people being the first to see Jesus, and stay receptive and experience the power of incarnation. The episode concludes on a hopeful note, invoking listeners to consider what new experience God may lead them toward in the coming year.

What could be more important in these disturbing and uncertain times than tapping into God's perspective, His wisdom, His plan, and His provision? Join us as Chris shares his thoughts on why Spiritual Vision is perhaps more important now than ever before in our lifetime.   As you listen, you'll be reminded of the: The love and light shining even now as an anchor for your soul.
