October 2, 2025; 8pm: Tonight, the Trump threat to do "bad things" to Americans to try and hurt Democrats. And Senator Bernie Sanders on how Democrats are fighting back. Plus, the alarming ICE raid of an entire Chicago apartment building—and what it means for constitutional freedom. And you'll never guess why these world leaders were caught on tape laughing at Donald Trump. To listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

Today's episode is a video solocast. Rather than just listening to it, watching it on my YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@melonybrown is suggested.Throughout 2025, God's been teaching me about the importance of maintaining a healthy spiritual posture. Episode 117, titled STAND FIRM, I shared about the posture of standing firm. The visual image of a hiking boot reminds us that the Holy Spirit empowers us to stand firm when challenges intersect our path. Episode 127, titled LEANING ON GOD, I shared about the posture of leaning on God. The visual image of hiking poles reminds us with our entire personality we can trust, rely on, and confidently lean because God rescues, delivers, and saves us during our trials.Holding on to expectant hope is another posture God has been teaching me about this year.According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, hope is cherishing a desire with anticipation or wanting something to happen or be true. While this modern definition of hope is accurate, it falls short of fully defining the hope believers have when they accept and follow Jesus. I shared the Greek meanings of hope and expectant. When I prayed about the visual image that could represent expectant hope, the Holy Spirit brought to mind a cup.Yes, the visual image for expectant hope will be a cup. I shared what I learned about the promises in Exodus 6 that are connected to the four cups of the Passover Seder.Is there a fifth promise and a fifth cup?I shared the Greek meaning of overflow. Notable quotes:·       The Holy spirit doesn't just fill you with a drop or two of hope. Nor does He fill you till you're full of hope. He fills you to overflowing with hope!·       The four promises or four cups were for the Israelites. But they are for us too! When you accepted Jesus and committed to live your life for Him: He set you apart as His own. He rescued you from bondage, oppression, and sin. He forgave your sins and reconciled you to God. He desires to have a relationship with you.·       Expectant hope is an active, faith-filled posture of confidence and a Spirit-filled expectation that God WILL fulfill His promises.Bible verses:·       Romans 15:13·       Matthew 26:39·       Exodus 6:6-8·       Luke 22”17-18·       I share 12 verses of God's promises that can fill us with expectant hope.·       Lamentations 3:21 fight verse for expectant hopeSend me a COMMENT or QUESTION!THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

Send us a textOn today's PoM podcast I sat down with Joby Martin, founder and lead pastor of the Church of Eleven22 in Jacksonville Florida and author of "Stand Firm and Act Like Men: Becoming the Man You Were Created to Be Instead of Who the World Says You Are." In this new book, Pastor Joby walks through what the Bible means when it says, ‘be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong, and let all that you do be done in love' (1 Corinthians 16:13). He guides readers through what scripture says about who men are, how they should act, and what it means to be a man in today's culture, and he asks tough questions about how God calls men to respond. To learn more about Joby Martin and this book visit: https://jobymartin.com/Support The Show: https://www.buzzsprout.com/110664/subscribeRegister for our next session of Tribe: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviiBuild your own local Tribe with Tribe Builder: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-builderThis podcast is sponsored by Dark Water Woodwork.

This week, Sandy continues with week 19 of a 21 week series entitled, "Finish the Race." This series will target the Christian life and how we are supposed to live as followers of Jesus.

False prophecies can lead people into fear, confusion, and even destruction—but God's Word makes it clear: no one knows the day or the hour of Christ's return. In this episode of the Twisted Twenties Podcast, T. Louise unpacks why so many believers were shaken by recent false predictions, and why discernment and knowing Scripture for yourself is essential in these times.This is a call to wake up, stay alert, and stand firm in the truth of God's Word. Don't let fear control you—cling to Christ, walk in discernment, and build an unshakable faith.

Have you ever found yourself praying for a miracle, believing God would move, but the answer didn't come? It's easy in those moments to feel spiritually discouraged. We start to wonder: Why hasn't He answered? Am I doing something wrong? Is something wrong with me?As we wrap our series in the book of Daniel, Pastor Jeff Moes will look at Daniel 10 and wrestle with the question: What do you do in the waiting? What do you do when God seems slow to respond?Daniel received a powerful vision and discovered that God speaks even in the waiting. I believe He wants to speak to you, too, in the waiting season of your life.This episode concludes with a worship element as Nick Paulsen leads "In the Waiting" by Gateway Worship.--WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistConnect with us!How can we prayer for you?

Text: Ephesians 4:11-16   1.   We are Equipped in Christ through Gifted Shepherds (11-12) 2.   We are Equipped in Christ to Grow into Maturity (13) 3.   We are Equipped in Christ to Stand Firm in the Truth (14) 4.   We are Equipped in Christ to Disciple One Another into Growth  (15-16)

In this episode, we conclude our journey through 1 John 2 with a powerful reminder that God has equipped His people with the Spirit and His Word to discern truth from deception. John urges believers to remain in Christ, hold fast to the gospel they received, and not be swayed by those who distort the truth. Learn how to walk in the confidence of your anointing, stay grounded in Scripture, and recognize the subtle ways false teachings try to creep into the church.

Christians must recognize that God has established a structure within the church where godly leaders shepherd the flock and followers humbly submit to their authority.

Stand Firm: The Fight Song for a Generation of MenNew Path Worship just released Stand Firm — a bold anthem calling men to rise up, fight back, and anchor their lives in faith when the world feels like it's falling apart.In this Listen + Learn episode of New Path New You, Ron unpacks the heartbeat behind the song: why men must resist compromise, how Scripture commands us to stand strong, and what it looks like to live unshaken in today's culture.Key Verses:1 Corinthians 16:13 – “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.”Ephesians 6:13 – “Put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground.”If you've been feeling weary, distracted, or tempted to back down, this is your wake-up call. Stand firm. Fight for your faith. And let this anthem fuel your spirit.

Today's message focuses on the reality of spiritual warfare—not just the devil's lies or the brokenness around us, but the pressure of “the world” itself. Scripture calls this the fallen system in rebellion against God, a culture that confuses truth, normalizes sin, and pressures believers to conform. Satan manipulates this system to exploit our own unrestrained desires (the flesh), turning good things into ultimate things and rebranding sin as normal.But the call of Jesus is not to isolate from the world, nor to blend in, but to stand firm—rooted in God's Word, transformed from the inside out, and sent back into the world with truth and compassion. We are set apart for a purpose, called to look more like Christ than culture, and empowered by the Spirit to live differently. Only a real relationship with Jesus can satisfy the deepest needs the world promises but can't deliver.Youtube Chapters:7:00 Review of three enemies: the devil, the flesh, the world 8:10 What “the world” really means (1 John 2:15-17) 13:00 How Satan uses culture to pressure and confuse 17:40 Lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, pride of life explained 30:30 Normalization & rebranding of sin in society 34:00 Jesus' model of truth + compassion (woman at the well/adulterous woman) 43:40 Our core needs vs. the enemy's counterfeit offers 46:00 Only a real relationship with Jesus satisfies 49:00 Call to faith, repentance & daily surrender (Mark 8) 52:00 Jesus' prayer: “In the world but not of it” (John 17) 55:00 How God's Word transforms vs. the world's pressure (Romans 12:2) 58:30 Living “sent” on mission—examples from public schools 1:00:00 Andrew's testimony: “Chasing the world vs. following Christ” 1:04:50 Closing challenge & prayer

In the conclusion to our series "Stand Firm" Roger Morris emphasizes the significance of stepping out in faith, trusting God's power and authority, and the necessity for believers to move beyond living by emotions and doubts. Drawing from biblical examples such as Moses with his staff (Exodus 4) and the crossing of the Jordan River, (Joshua 3) Roger illustrates how obedience to God's instructions can lead to miraculous outcomes. Additionally, he shares a personal story of a testimony of miraculous healing and recalling a prophetic word that reiterated God's plan for his life. Finally, viewers are invited to accept Jesus Christ into their lives, emphasizing the inclusivity and transformative power of God's call.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:   00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:31 The Power of God's Authority 01:44 Moses' Journey and Trust in God 04:47 Facing Fear with Faith 10:48 Crossing the Jordan River 18:41 Personal Testimonies and Obedience 26:00 Call to Salvation 27:34 Conclusion and Partnership Invitation   Connect with Bill & Roger Ministries: www.billandroger.com   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064668460680

If you paused to consider your own faith for a moment, would you say it's a faith that can be trusted? When push comes to shove, when prayers go unanswered or when life gets difficult, do you have a faith that you can trust to stand firm? Today, Pastor Lydia Miller looks at the faith of three of Daniel's friends: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. We will look at their unwillingness to conform, and their resilient faith that stood firm even in the test of their lives. From their story, we will ask: How do I know I have a faith that can be trusted? How do I stand firm in the fire? --WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistConnect with us!How can we prayer for you?

Life is filled with waiting — waiting for answers, for relief, for justice. In James 5:7–12, God's word calls His people to patiently endure in the face of hardship, oppression, and uncertainty by trusting His sovereign rule and the certainty of Christ's return. This powerful message points us back to the heart of the gospel. Just as Job endured suffering and ultimately experienced the mercy of God, so too Christ endured the cross to secure mercy and compassion for all who believe. And now, we live in a new hope — not wringing our hands in worry, but standing firm in faith, knowing that the Judge is at the door and His promises never fail.

In 1 Thessalonians 1:4-5, Paul reminds believers that our identity is secure in Christ. God loves us, he has chosen us, and his power transforms us, giving us confidence to stand firm in a world that opposes him. Our hope and endurance flow not from ourselves, but from God's unchanging love and saving grace. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

In this episode of Extraordinary Living, Roger Morris explains the concept of spiritual strongholds and the power of applying the word of God to overcome them. Through a detailed discussion of Ephesians 6:10-18 and the importance of the 'armor of God,' Roger emphasizes the necessity of knowing and standing firm on God's word to combat the devil's schemes. He stresses the significance of not just passively waiting for divine intervention but actively cooperating with the Holy Spirit. Using the story of Moses and the Israelites at the Red Sea in Exodus 14:10-17, Roger illustrates how faith and obedience to God's word in action can lead to miraculous deliverance.

# Books of the Book: Embracing God's Word In today's sermon, we embarked on a journey to rediscover the profound impact and necessity of being diligent students of the Bible. As we delve into the series "Books of the Book," the focus is on understanding why engaging with Scripture is crucial for spiritual growth and resilience in a chaotic world. ## The Call to Stand Firm in Truth Pastor Chris opened with a reflection on the chaotic state of the world, emphasizing the Christian duty to respond with courage and truth. He cited **Ephesians 6:12**, reminding us that our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against the spiritual forces of evil. This sets the stage for the critical need to anchor ourselves in God's Word, which is the ultimate source of truth and peace. ## The Importance of Bible Engagement The sermon highlighted a concerning trend: many believers neglect regular Bible reading. Statistics show that only 11% of Christians read the Bible daily, while a significant portion never intends to engage with Scripture at all. This neglect, Pastor Chris argues, is a form of self-sabotage, depriving us of spiritual nourishment and guidance. ### Biblical Foundations for Success 1. **Joshua 1:7-9** - God promises Joshua success if he meditates on and obeys His Word. This passage underscores that true prosperity comes from aligning with God's commands. 2. **Proverbs 2:6** - Solomon reveals that wisdom, necessary for making life's difficult decisions, comes from God's Word. 3. **Matthew 4:4** - Jesus, during His temptation, affirms that man shall not live on bread alone but on every word from God. This illustrates the soul's need for spiritual sustenance. ## The Transformative Power of Scripture - **Hebrews 4:12** describes the Bible as living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, capable of discerning thoughts and intentions. This power is vital for personal transformation and spiritual maturity. ### Practical Steps to Engage with Scripture - **Prioritize Quiet Time:** Commit to daily Bible reading as a non-negotiable part of life. - **Let God Speak:** Move beyond devotional snippets to immersive Scripture reading. - **Apply the Word:** Live out the teachings found in the Bible, ensuring they guide daily actions and decisions. ## Building a Foundation on the Rock In closing, Pastor Chris referenced **Matthew 7:24-27**, where Jesus likens those who hear and act on His words to a wise man building his house on the rock. This parable serves as a stark reminder that only by grounding ourselves in Scripture can we withstand life's storms. ## Conclusion The sermon concluded with a call to action: to be a people of the Word and prayer, shining God's light in a dark world. By embracing Scripture, we not only enrich our spiritual lives but also prepare ourselves to be vessels of God's peace and truth. --- As we continue this series, let us commit to making the Bible a central part of our lives, ensuring that God's wisdom and truth guide us in every step.

Have you ever thought to yourself, “I am under attack, I must not be in God's will”?  The truth is—you might not be. But sometimes, the very challenges we face are evidence that we're right in the center of God's will. Too often, people assume that once they become Christians, God makes life easier. But that's not always the case. In fact, when we live boldly for God, the enemy often takes notice and stirs up all kinds of opposition. That's exactly what we see in the life of Daniel. As we continue in our series Stand Firm, Pastor Jeff Moes leads us in to Daniel 6 that the spiritual attack Daniel faced was actually evidence that he was doing something right. And the same may be true for us. This Sunday, we'll ask the question: How do you stand firm when you're under attack? --WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistConnect with us!How can we prayer for you? Let us know.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk on 9/10/25 shook us all. On the eve of the 24th anniversary of 9/11, we were reminded yet again of the deep darkness pressing in on our world. From violent attacks in the United States to tragedies abroad, the evil seems relentless. In moments like this, we need to be reminded of the only way forward—standing firm in Christ. That’s the focus of this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," recorded just 24 hours before this unthinkable act. Host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow speak to the reality of our spiritual battlefield, the constant pull of a depraved world, and the hope we have when we trust God completely. As Philippians 2:15 reminds us, God calls us to “shine like stars in the sky” in a warped and crooked generation. Though Charlie’s earthly light is no longer with us, his life seemed to live that out—standing firm and pointing others to the Truth. That same call is before us: to trust God and to do what He says—so that we shine like stars.

Would you agree that it's becoming more challenging to faithfully follow Jesus in a culture constantly pulling us away? More and more, it feels like our world is growing hostile toward the values we hold in God's Word. So the question is: How do we, as followers of Jesus, stand firm in today's world? How do we remain strong in our faith while still loving well?Over the next four weeks, we'll be exploring what it means to stand firm as we walk through the Old Testament book of Daniel. This episode, Pastor Jeff Moes begin with “Living for Jesus in a Culture of Compromise” from Daniel 1. We'll see how four young teenagers were forced to live in Babylon but refused to let Babylon live in them. If Daniel and his friends could live in the world but not be of the world, then we can too!At the end of this episode, we will be partaking in communion. At Sunnybrook Community Church we encourage all who know Jesus as their savior to partake. If able, we encourage you to use crackers or bread and juice or wine in remembrance of the Lord's body and blood. -- WebsiteFacebookInstagramSunday SetlistConnect with us!How can we prayer for you?

There are two lions stalking the earth with opposite objectives, but they don't have equal power. Jesus has won total, complete, eternal, irreversible victory over Satan and the kingdom of darkness. The Lion of Judah has triumphed! In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the spiritual conflict raging in the earth and how we can stand firm against the enemy by staying close to the Lion of Judah. We are not powerless or called to be spectators in this fight. We are invited to join the triumphal procession God has planned. Pastor Allen explains that the key to resisting the enemy and spending time in the presence of the Lion of Judah is praise, worship, and yielding our whole person to Jesus Christ—our strength, our intellect, our resources, our calendar, and our priorities. When we worship, it reframes our perception of ourselves and God, strengthening us to stand immovable and triumphant in our faith—even when we're confronted with the roar of the lion.
