Pastor Jacob Lopez | 6.3.26

In this week's Hidden Figures message, Pastor RJ Ciaramitaro explores the story of Ebed-Melech — a little-known figure whose courage and compassion changed someone's life. As Jeremiah sat trapped in a pit, Ebed-Melech chose to stand in the gap when others stayed silent. But his rescue wasn't only practical; it was thoughtful. He lowered ropes to pull Jeremiah out, but also included rags so the ropes wouldn't injure him. It's a powerful picture of how truth and grace work together. This episode reminds us that helping people requires both strength and tenderness — conviction and compassion. We are called not only to speak truth, but to carry people with grace.

She stresses the importance of perseverance in prayer, illustrated by stories of revival and personal testimony. This sermon aims to uplift and motivate believers to be vigilant in their spiritual intercession.

As we get ready to wrap up our "Standing in the Gap" series next week, we have to look an all important principle that every gap-filler embodied prior to fulfilling their call: dealing with their own wicked hearts (Jer. 17:9-10).

God was ready to start over with Moses, but Moses refused to let go of the people. This week, we dive into the intense dialogue between God and Moses on Mount Sinai. We discuss the breaking of the tablets, the "grinding of the gold," and the ultimate test of leadership. Learn the power of intercessory prayer and discover how Moses points us to Jesus, our Great Intercessor, who stands between us and judgment.#Exodus32 #GoldenCalf #Idolatry #Intercession #BibleStudyTamil #BroEmersonDevaraj #WayToLife #StandingInTheGap #MosesInterceding #ExodusSeries

This battle has always been personal. Our faith was always meant to be our own and not someone else's. This is not your typical "David & Goliath" story. Have you personalized your own walk with God?

Standing in the Gap - Psalm 20 | 03.15.2026 by

Today's lesson focuses on the first mention of the word "zealous" or any form of the word. Interestingly, the last mention of that word shows up in God's charge to those living in Laodicea. Unfortunately, there aren't many Phinehas' in Laodicea...will you change that?

On tonight's edition of The Mark White Show, I'm talking with Jerry Peters, a retired United States Marshal, 3x Operation Enduring Freedom veteran, and longtime crisis intervention specialist. After decades serving on the front lines of law enforcement and witnessing the toll that trauma, stress, and crisis can take on individuals and families, Jerry has dedicated his life to helping others find a path forward. Jerry now serves as CEO and primary liaison for Operation Life Support, a non-profit initiative focused on supporting communities impacted by traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress. Drawing from his own experiences as a traumatic brain injury survivor and more than twenty-six years of crisis intervention work, Jerry is working to connect veterans, first responders, and everyday Americans with the resources and support they need. In this conversation, Jerry shares insights on trauma, crisis, the impact of TBI, and why peer support and community awareness are so important for helping people reclaim their lives with purpose.

The CopDoc Podcast - Season 9 - Episode 167What does it take to walk into four different agencies, each with its own culture and expectations, and lead effectively in all of them? Gina Hawkins has done exactly that — from the Atlanta Police Department where she came of age as a young officer, to Sandy Springs, Clayton County, Fayetteville, North Carolina, and now Cobb County's Sheriff's Office. Along the way she has learned that culture doesn't start inside the building. It starts with the community that either demands excellence or tolerates mediocrity.In this conversation, Gina shares the hard lessons she picked up at each stop — managing stress that nearly broke her health, losing custody of her daughter the weekend the moving truck arrived as she headed to take command in Fayetteville, and still walking into that organization and pouring herself into the work. She talks about what it means to develop leaders, why women belong in policing at every level, and why the absence of universal standards for 18,000 law enforcement agencies is one of the most pressing problems in the profession.This episode is candid, personal, and practical. Gina Hawkins doesn't give you theory — she gives you earned wisdom.KEY TOPICS DISCUSSED:How culture is shaped by the community before it is ever shaped by the chiefLeading through personal crisis while commanding a new organizationWhat it's like to be the outsider hired over the heads of internal candidatesThe importance of women in policing and Cobb County's annual Women's SummitHer experience on the President's Commission on Law Enforcement and why the lack of universal standards remains a critical gapThe role of transparency, accountability, and body cameras in rebuilding public trustWhat retirement looks like when you can't stop servingHey there!

There is perhaps no greater picture of a gap filler in Scripture than Moses. Countless times, he is found interceding on Israel's behalf before a holy God. A close examination of this reveals how close Israel was to a second or third world-wide flood. This begs to question: who in your life can be spared from judgment if you'll simply stand in the gap on their behalf?

Many are familiar with the battle plan of Gideon, few remember the circumstances of his calling. Tune in for the specifics concerning this gap-filler.

Before you can stand in the gap, you need to make up the hedge. Today, we look at someone in the Old Testament who decided to step outside of God's protection and boundaries and as a result affected his fellow brothers and sisters in their walk with the Lord.

God is searching for gap-fillers: one individual who chooses to step up when no one else will. That starts - and is sustained - by possessing the fear of the Lord.

Join Kosta and his guest: Trenton Strode, Vice President of Putnam County Young Democrats, District Representative of Putnam County Democratic Party and Candidate for Putnam County Commission District 11. In this episode: You're running multiple races in 2026. As we said earlier, you'll be seeking one of the two seats in Putnam County Commission District 11, but you've also announced and qualified on the ballot to run against Incumbent Ryan Williams for Tennessee House of Representatives District 42. Why? As our listeners might remember, last summer you were arrested and charged with a felony at the June 2025 Putnam County Commission meeting. Several months later those charges were dropped and you are now pursuing your own bid for Putnam County Commission District 11. We're not here to rehash the events of last summer, but I'm curious the impact it had on your decision to run and the explosion of democratic candidates running in our local 2026 elections? On social media the Putnam County Republican Party has taken every opportunity to link Putnam County Democratic Party, Putnam County Young Democrats and anyone that puts a (D) next to their name with as much political chaos and bad behavior as possible. You are one of the few, if at times only representatives to hold the line and call out this bad behavior. Why do you think our local republican party is so fixated with disparaging the opposing party when there isn't one Democrat currently serving in local office?

Standing In The Gap | Pastor Mike Drury | 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting: Week 03 | January 18, 2026

Pastor Luke talks about how we have a natural tendency to want to fix everything for others, but that's not our job. Scripture reading: 1 Samuel 12:19-24.

Brian From speaks with Jeff Bradford, CEO and President of Human Coalition, about the organization’s frontline work reaching women who believe abortion is their only option and providing them with compassionate, practical support. Bradford explains how Human Coalition combines medical care, social services, technology, and church partnerships to remove barriers and empower women to choose life—often at the very moment they are seeking to terminate a pregnancy. Their conversation highlights a powerful truth: when women are met with hope, help, and a supportive community, life becomes a real and attainable choice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Written by Bill Palmer. A passage in the prophetic book of Ezekiel tells us that God sought someone who would stand in the gap. Why? And what does this mean for us today?Read Online: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/life/christian-living/standing-in-the-gap/

“So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one.” — Ezekiel 22:30 (NKJV) In this powerful message, “Standing in the Gap,” Pastor Andrew dives into God's heartbreaking search for an intercessor — someone willing to step into the breach and contend for a people, a generation, and a nation. From the Hebrew word perets (breach, break, gap), we learn that a “gap” in Scripture represents vulnerability and spiritual exposure. Where there is a breach, the enemy finds access. But God's heart is always restoration — to repair the breach, rebuild the ruins, and restore what has fallen (Isaiah 58:12; Amos 9:11). In this message we explore:

Jeff Demarest - Standing in the Gap by West Coast Baptist College

You may never see the full impact of your ministry—but heaven does. In this episode of Youth Worker on Fire, Doug Edwards unpacks what it means to stand in the gap for students, families, and communities. Drawing from Ezekiel 22:30 and Galatians 6:9, Doug reminds every youth pastor, volunteer, and parent that faithful, unseen ministry is holy work—the kind that changes generations. Through personal stories of students who became pastors, thriving churches, and spiritual legacies years in the making, Doug shares how: ✅ Your influence outlasts your season of ministry ✅ "Standing in the gap" means becoming a bridge between God and people ✅ Long-term obedience builds eternal legacy ✅ God finishes what He starts—if we stay faithful to the call ✅ The seeds you plant today will grow in ways you never imagined

Who are you standing in the gap for? Discover the power of intercessory prayer to transform lives, churches, and communities, and how you can join Jesus, the ultimate Intercessor, in this life-saving work.

This week's focus is intercession — prayer that moves beyond personal needs to carry the burden of others and contend for God's purposes. In this season between senior leaders, God is calling our church to become intercessors. Intercession is not a job for a few “prayer warriors” — it's the call of every believer to partner with Heaven for transformation.

How do we stay hopeful in the face of despair and disillusionment—especially when politics threaten to tear us in two? Kate speaks with Parker Palmer, a writer, teacher, and activist. As you’ll hear, he has gone through seasons of deep clinical depression, and has hard-won wisdom to share with us on how to survive, how to regain a sense of agency, how to remain hopeful despite it all. In this episode, Kate and Parker discuss: finding agency in the midst of depression and despair (including his trick of redefining achievement) why it is important to recalibrate our sense of reality—especially in the face of 24-hour news cycles and social media algorithms how a broken heart can either shatter or break open into a larger, more compassionate way of being So on a day like today when we all might be thinking about the state of our nation or the state of our world or the realities at stake for our families and friends (....or perhaps, more tempted to keep our head in the sand to just make it through Thanksgiving), might we pull up close and listen to what Parker has to teach us about how to keep our hearts soft and remain hopeful, still.

Standing in the Gap event in Delaware with Wendy Mears

Ep. 277 — Standing in the Gap: A Parent's Prayer for their Prodigal Child with Dr. James Banks  Few things break a Christ-following parent's heart more than watching a daughter walk away from her faith. In a culture where drifting and deconstruction are becoming all too common, it can feel overwhelming to know how to respond. Yet Scripture offers both hope and a blueprint: we serve a God who runs toward prodigals with open arms (Luke 15:20), and prayer is the bridge that can bring wandering hearts home.  In this powerful episode, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus Patti Garibay welcomes Dr. James Banks—pastor, author, and devoted encourager of parents walking through prodigal seasons. With deep compassion and practical wisdom, Dr. Banks shares what it means to “stand in the gap” through prayer, how to show unconditional love without compromising truth, and why parents can persevere in hope even when change feels far away.  You'll also hear practical encouragement for spotting early signs of drift, how to guard against despair, and why community and mentorship are lifelines for weary parents. If you've been praying for your prodigal daughter—or longing for strength to keep praying—this conversation will refresh your spirit and remind you that God is always at work, even when we cannot see it.  Discover how persistent prayer doesn't just move prodigals closer to God—it transforms parents in the process.  Scripture Referenced in This Episode:  Luke 15:20  Romans 8:26–27  James 5:16  Psalm 126:5–6  Galatians 6:9  Learn more about Dr. James Banks and his ministry at jamesbanks.org.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org. 

Guest Speaker and Pastor Rachael Wade recounts Nehemiah's posture toward prayer, in a time of crisis and exile for the Israelites as Jerusalem's wall was burned down. Nehemiah's first response is to weep, to fast, and to pray to God. Nehemiah cried out to God and confessed his own sin among his community. Who are you crying out to as a first response to a crisis?Rachael WadeSeptember 21, 2025Series: Year of Prayer - The God Who Hearswww.newnorth.church
