Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com    Mark 7:13 13 And so you cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition. And this is only one example among many others.” Colossians 2:8 8 Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. 9 For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. 10 So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority. If you become captured by empty philosophies bad things happen?  Notice the way this verse states it… you allow yourself to get captured. How… you quit staying vigilant - you quit seeking the voice of God. You fail to realize that the best way an enemy captures you is not with Bombs and bullets but by voices of compromise.  When you listen to compromising voices what happens?  Fosters Complacency: Relying on the voices in your circle - be it social media, politicians, friends… etc…  erodes motivation to increase in intimacy.  Hinders Personal Growth: It traps people in comfort zones - what do I mean? One of the keys of knowing Gods voice is that it grows in clarity, focus and detail. But we don't need to grow or act as disciples if we choose the voices outside of the Holy Spirit. Damages your soul with a lack of joy from obedience, testimonies and will ultimately produce a spirit of comparison that will rob you further. Now if it is you that is canceling the word of God you are doing so at the peril of practicing idolatry. You have set yourselves up as God.

As we delve further into chapter thirteen today, we witness Paul and Barnabas embarking on their first missionary journey. In these verses we also get a first hand description from Paul about the foundations of the Christian faith. It's no coincidence that these two story lines go together. If we want to really be effective for Christ in the mission field, we need to know the foundations of the faith we proclaim!

Send us a textGrace and peace to youMy heart breaks for the hatred and anger being expressed in this world although scripture makes it clear that it will happen.I felt led to share the unwavering biblical truth and reality in hopes of those that claim to be followers but not reflect Christ at all. There is a right and wrong way to battle injustice in this world and the bible explains how to to face it. Its still hard and heartbreaking but no more than peoples unbelief and nominal faith that breaks Christs heart. Let us be spiritually and scripturally awake and face injustice until Christs inevitable return.Big LoveBrother JeffSupport the show

All of us are moving in some sort of direction in life. Many of us aren't intentional about the “way” we're heading. At times we can become directionally challenged. We start to go in one direction and then turn left or go right just to end up in a familiar starting place. Spiritually, many people would feel the same way. I'm a “Christian” But what does that mean? Are either of those true? The first followers of Jesus were called followers of “The Way”. If you're looking for meaning, honesty, change, and direction; join us for “Practicing The Way”. This series has the potential to change your life and point you in the direction you were made for.

One of the greatest things about the Bible is the way that the accounts of these men and women translate so well into modern times. God certainly intended us to use His word that way. Today pastor Lloyd takes us to the Apostle Paul's first missionary journey. As we watch and learn of this great man's maturing in Christ, let's see if we can capture some ways we might grow closer to the Lord as well.

When my veneer fell out mid-lunch, I thought it was a dental problem.

What does real spiritual maturity look like? It's not how many verses you know, how loud you sing, or how often you serve. According to Scripture, the true test is how well you love.In this powerful final installment of our Inside Out: Becoming Emotionally and Spiritually Healthy in Christ series, Pastor Talaat McNeely unpacks 1 Corinthians 13 with a timely and challenging word for today's divided world.From political polarization to cultural tension, it's easy to let division define us. But Paul reminds us—and this message makes clear—that biblical love is patient, kind, enduring, and active. It's not optional. It's the fruit of emotional health, it requires maturity, it must be practiced daily, and it points people straight to Jesus.This message will push you to examine your relationships, your responses, and your witness as a follower of Christ. If you're ready to discover what it really means to love well—and why love is the foundation for everything—this episode is for you.

This week, Pastor Brandon continues our Journey Through Ephesians series with one of the most powerful chapters in Scripture — Ephesians 2. Before Christ, we were spiritually dead, slaves to the world, the enemy, and our own flesh. But Paul reminds us that everything changes with two words: “But God.” Through His mercy and grace, we've been raised to life, set free, and created for good works that He prepared for us in advance. This message is a reminder that salvation isn't the end — it's the beginning. We were dead, but now we are alive in Christ! ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Welcome to Venture Church Online1:00 – Building expansion and generosity update2:30 – Introduction to Ephesians 23:40 – Reading Ephesians 2:1–105:00 – “Before and After” – setting up the message7:00 – Pastor Brandon's story about shoulder surgery8:30 – Who we were before Jesus10:00 – Spiritually dead and separated from God12:00 – Slaves to the world, the enemy, and the flesh14:40 – The world's pattern and influence16:00 – The deception of the enemy18:00 – Our struggle with the flesh and temptation22:00 – Deserving of wrath — the weight of sin24:30 – “But God” — the turning point26:00 – Made alive with Christ through grace28:00 – Understanding God's immeasurable love and mercy30:00 – Salvation as resurrection and new life32:00 – We are God's handiwork — His masterpiece34:00 – Created for good works prepared in advance36:00 – God's pursuit of those still in the “before”37:30 – The hope of transformation — “But God”39:00 – Invitation to follow Jesus and prayer of salvation40:30 – Closing announcements and worship night preview

Church isn't fun and games. It's about God, and our relationship with Him. It's about the problem we have with God. We need to be saved from His wrath, which we deserve because of our sin. That being the case, we can expect Satan to use every devious means he can muster to confuse people. One of his most common and effective strategies is to sow tares among the wheat, as in the famous parable of Jesus. A tare is a weed that looks just like wheat until the harvest, but tares rob wheat of nutrients and corrupt the harvest. Spiritually speaking, a tare is a phony who looks just like a Christian, but spreads well-packaged and sweet-tasting long-acting spiritual poison. 1 - Warning Of The Spirit (1) 2 - Wandering From The Faith (1) 3 - Ways To Go Astray (1-3) 4 - Wonderful Gifts Of God (4-5)

Message Title- Were We Healed Spiritually?This is one of the great debates that revolves around the new birth experience.

A resident, 2 doctors, a physician assistant and student minister share ways they live out the gospel through healthcare among those experiencing poverty. If Jesus came to earth today as a healthcare provider, how would he care for patients, staff and the community? Though the world defines success by our bank account and possessions, living for Jesus looks different and requires sacrifice that westerns find difficult to pursue.

“He weakened my strength in the way.” – Psalm   Life's Waves and God's Sovereignty Referencing Psalm 42:7, “Deep calls unto deep,” he explains that it portrays wave after wave of life's challenges, not mystical depths. Sometimes, trouble comes in relentless succession — one wave after another — yet God uses even pain, sickness, and discomfort to shape us. We often blame the devil, but sometimes it's the Lord doing deep work in us. He reminds the congregation that when we gave our lives to Christ, we surrendered the right to run our own lives. “We said, ‘You get to call the shots.' ”   Psalm 84 – Dwelling in God's Presence The message centers on Psalm 84, portraying the believer's longing for God's house and presence amid a fallen world. “How lovely is Your tabernacle, O Lord of hosts.” Believers must live in the world but not of it, finding their refuge not in wealth, approval, or comfort — but in God's presence. Even the sparrow finds a home near His altar — showing that everyone, humble or lowly, is welcome in His presence. The pastor urges believers to maintain a “secret place” — a daily sanctuary of prayer and fellowship with God. We need His manifest presence, not just His omnipresence.   Strength in the Pilgrimage Psalm 84:5 – “Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, whose heart is set on pilgrimage.” True strength comes from the Lord, not self. The Christian life is a pilgrimage, requiring perseverance and endurance — “a journey, not a sprint.” Like Noah, Abraham, and Jesus, we must walk faithfully even when the outcome seems far away. “Decide yesterday that you're not going to quit today.”   The Valley of Baka – Digging Wells Psalm 84:6 describes the Valley of Baka, a place of weeping, decay, and death. Spiritually, it represents the world's brokenness. Believers are called to dig wells — to bring life, truth, and hope where there is despair. Each Christian has a circle of influence (family, workplace, community) where God expects them to “dig wells” for others. He contrasts Absalom, who built a monument to himself, with Jacob, who dug a well. “The statue is gone; the well still flows.” The challenge: be an effective well-digger whose influence blesses others long after you're gone.   From Strength to Strength Psalm 84:7 – “They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.” This phrase means believers become an army within themselves because God dwells in them. Strength increases through intimacy with God, not worldly alliance. Avoid letting worldly media and negativity shape your mind — renew your thoughts in God's Word. Illustrations include: A soldier in WWII saved by a spider's web God used for protection. A survivor of the Titanic quoting Psalm 91 as God delivered him. These show that God's care extends to the smallest details for those who trust Him.   Staying Coupled with the Lord Psalm 84:11 – “No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.” The pastor explains that “uprightly” in Hebrew (tāmîm) means “to stay coupled” — like train cars joined together. We don't have to be perfect; we just have to stay connected to God. Whether rusty or shiny, the only train cars that move are the ones still coupled. “If you'll stay coupled with Me, I won't withhold any good thing from you.”   The Final Call – Dig Wells, Stay Coupled, Trust God Believers are called to: Remain coupled to God through every trial. Commit to the pilgrimage — no turning back. Dig wells in dry, dying places. Trust God through both good and hard seasons. “Once you dig a well in Christ, it will always have water in it.” The sermon closes with an altar call to: Renew one's commitment to Christ's work, Receive strength to influence others, and Begin or restore a relationship with Jesus. Key Theme: God is calling His people to intimacy, endurance, and influence — to stay coupled, keep digging wells, and bring living water into a dying world.  

Read OnlineJesus said to his disciples: “Gird your loins and light your lamps and be like servants who await their master's return from a wedding, ready to open immediately when he comes and knocks.”  Luke 12:35–36What does it mean to “Gird your loins?” This phrase, which is not commonly used today, literally means “tighten your belt.” It traditionally refers to one who is wearing a long robe that makes it difficult to move quickly and easily. Thus, to gird your loins means that you tuck in the long robe and tighten your belt so that you are prepared for some physical activity. It was also commonly used to exhort those preparing for battle to get ready. Symbolically, then, this phrase simply means to be ready for something difficult or challenging. It means to be vigilant and prepared. Spiritually speaking, Jesus is telling His disciples to be ready for the spiritual battle that awaits them.Jesus then tells His disciples to light their lamps. That phrase could have a variety of meanings, such as “Do not remain in the darkness of sin or ignorance” or “Let the light of charity shine forth as you navigate through life” or “Allow the light of truth to shine within your mind.” Hence, by the light of faith, they are to be prepared and vigilant, ready to do all that the Lord sends them to do.Today's Gospel ends by Jesus saying that the disciples will be truly blessed if they remain vigilant even until the second or third watch of the night. Some Church Fathers see this as a reference to three periods in one's life: childhood being the first watch, middle age being the second, and old age being the third watch.With these meanings understood, one message we can take from this Gospel is that Jesus is calling us to be vigilant in our faith at every moment of our lives. For those who have lived many years, it may be useful to look back at how faithful you have been throughout every period of your life. God wants to use you in many ways during childhood, through your middle age, and even in old age. The journey of faith must never end. Instead, it must continually deepen as you age. But this will only be possible if you “gird your loins” and “light your lamps.” You must continually be vigilant, continually attentive to the light of faith, and continually be ready to act every time God inspires you to act. Reflect, today, upon the lifelong journey of faith and service of God to which you are called. Being a Christian is not simply something you are born into. If you were born into the faith, then ponder especially what you have done throughout your life to daily deepen and strengthen that faith. Ponder whether or not you have diligently responded to the countless inspirations of the Holy Spirit to spread the light of faith to others. If you have been truly faithful throughout your life, then give thanks to God and recommit yourself to this fidelity for the rest of your life. If you have lacked faith and vigilant attentiveness to the will of God, then place that in the hands of God's mercy and resolve from this day forward to do all you can to respond to the will of God the moment God calls. My most merciful Lord, I thank You for the countless ways throughout my life that You have spoken to me, calling me to fulfill my mission of faith and love in this world. I commit to You, this day, to always remain vigilant and attentive to You every time You call. Use me, dear Lord, so that I may bring the light of Your saving Gospel to a world in need. Jesus, I trust in You.  Image: Duccio di Buoninsegna, Public domain, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

If you've ever felt numb, disconnected, or like your soul doesn't quite belong in the modern Western world, this will awaken something ancient inside you.Listen to Part 1 here - How Do I Take Back My Power Being A South Asian or Middle Eastern Woman?Work With Ruchika Mehta Here!Listen with your heart.

Many Christians around the West are perplexed by the times they are living in. Things at work, at school, on their streets –they're just not the same as what they grew up with. Spiritually things are downgraded. The same holds true for the culture in general, which is now hostile to the Christian faith and biblical morals.So much of this is new and alien. Many Christians have no clue how they should respond. What can they do themselves? And what can they say or do to help their kids? Frustration is growing, along with anxiety, fear and anger.How can Christians prepare to stand – and help the Church stand – in days of darkness? How can believers brace themselves for trials, and maybe even open persecution, in the days ahead.To help answer these questions, Andy Coleman sharesfive tips that ordinary Christians can use today to strengthen themselves spiritually for pressures tomorrow. These five tips borrow from his experiences working with persecuted Christians in some of the most difficult countries on earth. Inthose lands, the persecution climate is mature, but in many way similar to the milder but growing pressures in the West.These insights are drawn from a new book authoredby Andy Coleman, which is scheduled to be published in May, 2025. In Days of Darkness: A Manual for Ordinary Christians Facing Unusual Times is a book focused on helping believers prepare themselves, their families and their churches for tougher times.You can pre-order copies of In Days of Darkness: A Manual for Ordinary Christians Facing Unusual Times at Barnes andNoble, Walmart, Target or wherever you find your favorite books.While the book will not officially launch until May 6, 2025, you can also order advance copies today.

We've all gotten ourselves into messes we couldn't fix. Spiritually, it's no different — we were dead, duped, and doomed. But God, rich in mercy and love, came to our rescue. Through Jesus, He made us alive, raised us, and seated us with Him.

You don't get in shape by accident—and the same is true for your spiritual and emotional health. In this powerful message, Pastor Talaat McNeely unpacks “The Workout Plan” from Philippians 3:12–14 (NLT) and shows us how intentional rhythms can strengthen our souls and draw us closer to Christ.With a blend of practical wisdom, biblical depth, and real-life application, Pastor Talaat lays out four essential steps for a healthy spiritual workout:Strengthen Your Core – Keep Christ at the center of every rhythm.Fuel Your Training – Let God's Word shape and stabilize your emotions.Steady the Weight – Anchor your life in worship and gratitude.Follow the Program – Surrender every rhythm of your life under the lordship of Jesus.This message will challenge you to stop “winging it” in your walk with God and start training with purpose. Whether you're feeling spiritually scattered, emotionally drained, or simply hungry for more of Christ, The Workout Plan gives you the practical tools and biblical encouragement you need to grow stronger, steadier, and more like Jesus.

Imagine your life like a sailboat. You have two options: keep the sails down and row endlessly in your own strength, or raise the sail of surrender and let the wind of the Spirit move you forward.We all do it. We hide behind the veils of effort, performance, or spiritual perfectionism. We put on a brave face, act like we've got it together, and manage our image like it's part of our faith. But deep down, many of us are exhausted.Spiritually speaking, it's like we're in a boat, rowing hard in our own strength to get where only God can take us. And it's not working.But what if the very thing you've been using, your striving, your perfectionism, your need to look strong, could become the way the Spirit moves you forward?That's the invitation. Turn the veil into a sail.

Send us a text"Growing up I always felt I was different. At an early age, I heard the call to be of service to humanity. For decades, I tried to avoid the messages coming from the Universe to follow my true path, because I wanted to “fit in” to the norm of what society required of me. By 2009 I was deeply depressed, felt empty inside, I was lost, and unsatisfied with my life. When my doctor warned me that I would not survive more than 2 years, if I continued on that path, I knew I had to make drastic changes in my life. My struggle and suffering was caused by the career I had chosen ten years prior.I have been helping my clients overcome stress, anxiety, and other mental and emotional blocks that are caused by fears, and limiting beliefs. Through my gifts of intuitive healing, combined with extensive training in psychology, hypnotherapy, NLP, EFT, and life coaching I empower my clients to achieve their goals and dreams and experience inner peace and happiness in the areas of love, health, career/path/purpose."www.JourneystoHeal.comResources:www.SoulAwakeningStore.comwww.claudiumurgan.comclaudiu@claudiumurgan.comhttps://spirituallyinspired.buzzsprout.comSubscribe for more videos! youtube.com/channel/UC6RlLkzUK_LdyRSV7DE6obQSupport the show

Work with your hands.” These simple instructions from Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians form the foundation of pastor Tommy Brown's new book, The Speed of Soul.

Okay, so this episode is… different. It's not a strategy breakdown or a launch roadmap — it's a heart check. One I didn't plan to record, but felt completely pressed to share after cardio the other morning.

Will human wisdom ever be able to match the progress of technology?This week, Thomas is joined by Soren Gordhamer, the founder of Wisdom 2.0, for a deep dive into spiritual consciousness, technology, and how we can hold on to what's most essential in life as we face the complex challenges of the digital age.As humans experience unprecedented levels of global connection, we're also facing a crisis of loneliness, fragmentation, and polarization. Soren suspects that our “inner technologies of the heart” (wisdom, compassion, and self-awareness) aren't keeping pace with algorithms, devices, and AI. He and Thomas discuss how regulating our nervous systems and tending to our spiritual practices can help offset the negative effects of technological overload.But individual evolution isn't enough. This conversation explores the critical need for tech creators to infuse their work with ethical values and a collective reigning in of greed and unfettered capitalism to prevent a dysregulated society from misusing super-intelligent technologies.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

We live in a culture that shouts “no boundaries, no limits, no rest.” Hustle harder, grind longer, push past exhaustion—that's what the world tells us. But what if God sees limits differently? What if your limits are not obstacles but gifts designed to draw you closer to Him?In this powerful message from Pastor Talaat McNeely, part of our Inside Out: Becoming Emotionally and Spiritually Healthy in Christ series, discover:Why your limits are not barriers but bridges to God's powerHow limits protect you from burnout, distraction, and prideThe surprising way even Jesus embraced limits in His earthly lifePractical steps to live with faith, focus, and freedom inside God's boundariesIf you've ever felt like you're running on empty, stretched too thin, or stuck behind walls you can't break through—this message will give you fresh perspective and hope.

Joshua 5 - How to Move Forward Spiritually - Pastor Dan PlourdeMESSAGE NOTES:http://www.calvaryword.com/Joshua2025/a1425.pdf

Are Aliens Just an Extension of Our Consciousness? Are psychedelics the only way to tap into a higher state of consciousness? Dr. James B. Glattfelder on the Transcendental Multiverse, Psychedelics, and the Fight for Meaning What if communicating with aliens isn't “out there”, but deep within? In this mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. James B. Glattfelder, complexity scientist, metaphysical idealist, former quant, and author, dives deep into the true nature of consciousness, the limits of traditional physics, and the emergence of meaning in our increasingly fractured world. From psychedelic dimensions and the “transcendental multiverse” to the hidden role of identity in societal collapse, Dr. Glattfelder explores: - Why modern physics hits a wall when explaining consciousness, and why the pendulum is swinging back toward spiritual and philosophical truth - Whether alien contact during DMT trips is actually us tapping into a wider field of consciousness - Why he believes we live in a transcendental multiverse, and how you can train yourself to explore it - His personal experiences with psychedelics, and why he thinks they should be a last resort for accessing higher states - Natural ways to stimulate DMT production without substances - Potential mental health benefits of THC - Alternative modalities that lead to non-dual states and expanded awareness - Dangers of cosmic nihilism in today's spiritual seeking - Why identity is at the root of our collective dysfunction - Whether everyone should have access to higher consciousness, or if it's best left to the few - Why exploring your consciousness has the radical power to transform your life - Delicate balance between intuition, metaphysical signs, and grounded presence - Neuroscience vs philosophy: Why brain damage sometimes unlocks new genius abilities - How religion served humanity before it was weaponized, and what's next - Why we suffer, even if there's a loving intelligence behind everything - The real cure for our crisis of meaning? A return to re-enchantment with reality - Why so many plants have psychedelic properties, and what that says about consciousness itself This conversation will shake the foundations of what you believe is real!
