BURNT: The Sacred Center of Christ Leviticus 1 “All the offerings taken together give us a full view of Christ—as many mirrors arranged to reflect in various ways the figure of that true and perfect sacrifice.” —C.H.M. (C.H. Mackintosh)   A Story of Pure Devotion My mind recalls a young, dark-haired Canadian girl, whose beauty lay not so much in her features as in the quiet creativity of her words. She was a writer of poetry and prose, able to describe a moment with the grace of a Victorian novelist. My eyes would often drift to the tattered journal she carried—the weight of it owed not to its binding, but to the sheer volume of ink pressed upon its pages. She never parted with it. Its contents, I am certain, were treasures untold. One random Saturday turned quietly unforgettable when I asked why she had left her cherished treasury behind. “I burnt it,” she said. I gasped at the waste. “Why?” She looked directly into my eyes. “Some things,” she whispered, “are for Him alone.” The hours, thoughts, pains, sorrows, joys, and life lessons she penned rose to His eyes alone. Her ink became incense. Her intent was to give her most cherished work to Him—and this, she did.   What Is Burnt Is Gone When something is truly burnt, it passes beyond possession. It can no longer be handled, owned, or used. It is consumed. Surrendered to the flame, it becomes smoke ascending, curling upward— beyond the reach of man, beyond sight of man, beyond the control of man. It cannot be claimed by anyone but the heavens to which it ascends. This fully and finally.   The Burnt Offering Such is the burnt offering of old. It is an offering for God alone. Unlike the other sacrifices, it is laid upon the stones for one purpose only: to rise to God. It is the first of the offerings described in Leviticus. When the animal is burnt, it passes beyond possession. It can no longer be handled, owned, or used. It is consumed. Surrendered to the altar, it has become smoke—ascending, curling upward— beyond the reach of man, beyond the sight of man, beyond the control of man. It cannot be claimed by anyone but the God to whom it ascends—fully and finally.   Christ, the Sacred Burnt Offering This is a divine type and shadow, revealing to us the sacred center of Christ's heart— the sacred center of His manifold sacrifice. When Christ was laid on the altar of the cross, He could no longer be handled, owned, or used. He was, in a real sense, consumed by death. Surrendered to God, He became a sweet-smelling savor, curling upward— beyond the reach of man, beyond the sight of man, beyond the control of man. He could be claimed by none but His Father, to whom He ascended fully and finally. Christ, the final burnt offering—an obedience to God, just for God. Ephesians 5:2 — “…a sacrifice to God.”   Commentary from the Saints C.H. Mackintosh writes: “It was exclusively for God. God alone was the object of Christ in the burnt offering aspect of His death.” “Here is the deep-toned devotion of the heart of the Son presented to, and appreciated by, the heart of the Father.” In the burnt offering, Christ's charms shine bright through His unshakable devotion to His Father. Spurgeon notes: “The burnt offering was all for God. So was Christ. His death was above all things God-ward.” The Holy Spirit reveals to us in this shadow that Christ loved the Father before the church. What excellency! What beauty and perfection! Surely His love to the Father is sufficient to rouse love in our hearts. Mackintosh continues: “The true believer finds in the cross that which captivates every affection of his heart… There are heights and depths in the doctrine of the cross which man never could reach.”   Christ's Willing Offering The offering of Himself to His Father was voluntary. He was not forced or coerced. He revealed: “No one takes My life from Me. I lay it down of My own initiative.” (John 10:18) Matthew Henry writes: “Voluntary. What is done in religion, so as to please God, must be done by no other constraint than that of love.” His offering was not laborious duty but loving devotion.   The World Sees Waste—Heaven Sees Worship The natural mind calls this—not cooked but burnt—a waste. But Christ's loving devotion to His Father transforms what the natural man sees as waste into worship. John 14:31 — “So that the world will know that I love the Father.” The sacred center of His sacrifice was this public display of affectionate devotion to His Father. He didn't merely accept God's will—it was His intention, His motive, His reason. (See Hebrews 10:5–10; John 6:38–39; 10:17–18; Luke 22:42) John Owen describes it: “The free act of love to the Father.” Spurgeon echoes: “He came not with sigh but a song to do His Father's will.” Owen again: “The greatest demonstration of the love of Christ unto the Father is His giving Himself up to the death of the cross, to manifest what love and accomplish His will.”   The Burnt Sacrifice Was Innocent The burnt sacrifice, as the chapter foreshadows, had to be an innocent other. Christ was not only innocent—oh, much more—He was without defect. He fit the foreshadow perfectly. He alone is clean inside and out. Mackintosh: “No one had ever perfectly, invariably, from first to last, without hesitation, without divergence, done the will of God.” “It was no surface work with Him… The more the depths of His being were explored, the more clearly was it manifest that pure devotion to the will of the Father…”   Every Part of Him Aflame I mean to exalt Christ's burning love for God and His voluntary offering of Himself to God alone as the sacred center of our revelation of what Christ is actually like. Every part of Him aflame to God. Oh, how unlike us is Christ. By this, we know what love for God looks like: the surrender of our whole selves. Romans 12:1 — “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” Though our love is but the flicker of a faint flame, His sacred center quickens our hearts. For He exemplifies a love that stands apart from all others—ascending to God in fragrant flame. No portion eaten. No fragment withheld. No part left over. Every sinew of His sacred humanity—thoughts, deeds, motives, breath, blood— all offered up to God.   A Few Notes from Leviticus 1 The offering was made morning and evening. He is this both day and night. In the noonday sun and in the blackest night. No shade of life would alter His surrender. The offering could be an ox or a bird. He is this in the great and the small. No action was too small to be wholly surrendered to God. The bird was plucked and unsevered. Christ had His beard plucked in mockery—and yet His divinity was never severed from His humanity. He died as the God-Man. The sinner laid his hand upon the sacrifice, symbolizing imparted guilt and acknowledgment of deserved death. A foreshadow of the One upon whom the Lord laid the iniquity of us all (Isaiah 53). The Subtle Trap of Looking to Ourselves Henry Martyn, a missionary to India, once wrote that when he tried to find comfort by examining his life and searching for evidences of grace, he actually lost the brokenness of spirit he longed to keep. The more he looked to himself, the less he could rest simply at the foot of the cross. Many of us try to find peace by measuring our own faithfulness: Have I prayed enough? Have I served enough? Have I conquered this sin consistently? We think that if we can point to enough evidence of our devotion, we will feel secure. But here is the irony: the more we look to our own performance, the more we lose humility, dependence, and the sweetness of simple trust in Jesus. It is a subtle trap. Even good things—prayer, ministry, obedience—can become props we lean on to feel worthy, rather than gifts that flow from grace. Martyn only found peace when he stopped searching for comfort in himself and began to pray as a dying man—helpless and needy—resting on Christ alone. This is the lesson: Our comfort never comes from our own faithfulness, but from Christ's faithfulness for us. Brokenness of spirit and assurance of love thrive best when we lay aside self-scrutiny and fix our gaze on the cross.   Christ in the Burnt Offering As a burnt ox – He gave all His strength and labor to God. As a burnt sheep – He meekly followed God to death, patient and quiet in suffering. As a burnt goat – Though sinless, He was thought to be a sinner, sent in the likeness of sinful flesh. As a burnt dove – He was pure, single-eyed, plucked, unsevered, and holy.   The Preacher's Duty The priests were to arrange the wood and position the sacrifice. John Gill sees this as a type of the preacher's duty: “Evidence given of Him in the gospel, in which He is clearly set forth in His person, nature, and offices.” Trapp agrees: “The minister must rightly divide and dispose the Word of God, and evidently set forth Christ crucified.” Trapp also writes of the fire consuming the sacrifice: “Typifying the scorching wrath of God upon Christ—or the ardent love of Christ to God.”   The Sweet-Smelling Savor In all this, we see the “sweet-smelling savor unto God.” Christ as the burnt offering: the perfect Man, without defect, pure in and out, in action and thought, motive and deed, great and small—voluntarily offering Himself in love and devotion to His Father. To miss this is to reduce the gospel to a scheme for man's relief. If we fail to see this, we are but a step away from shaping the gospel into a man-centered escape plan, robbing God of His rightful glory in the work of His Son. Spurgeon wrote: “Christ did not die out of mere pity for man, but first of all out of love for the Father.” The salvation of man was the love song of the Son to the Father.   Three Effects on My Soul Adoration of such a lovely individual A desire to receive Him as my own A longing to surrender myself As Matthew Poole writes: “To serve the Lord with all singleness of heart, without self-ends, and to be ready to offer to God wherein we ourselves should have no benefit.” God has graciously met our need— and may He give us an enlarged capacity to enter into and enjoy His provision.

Psalm 14 describes a special kind of fool: Someone who knows the truth about God and still decides to live like He doesn't exist. This week, guest speaker Dr. Corey Schliep continues our Summer in the Psalms with a look at control and surrender. When we seek control over every aspect of life, we put ourselves on the throne and risk cycles of anxiety and disappointment. But when we honor God's sovereignty, we find the peace that comes with godly surrender.This week, our hosts dive deeper into the Psalms, specifically Psalm 14, they talk about the different times the word "fool" has shown up in the bible, and they go over the feeling of wanting to do your part while God is in control of the wheel. Oh and tune into the beginning to hear our hosts talk about the amazing week they just had at camp catapult.If you would like to watch the video podcast, find us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMhDfGn0zfzi6XjcKkSVcFAFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/discovertbcInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/topekabiblechurchWebsite: https://www.discovertbc.com/

On May 19, 1945, eleven days after the surrender of Nazi Germany in Europe, a U-boat was escorted into Portsmouth Naval Yard, New Hampshire. News reporters covering the surrender of U-234 were ordered, contrary to all previous and later U-boat surrender procedures, to keep their distance from crew members and passengers of U-234, on threat of being shot by the attending Marine guards. Why the tight security? Buried in the nose of the specially-built mammoth boat, sealed in cylinders “lined with gold,” was 1,120 pounds of enriched uranium labeled “U235”the fissile material from which atom bombs are made. Critical Mass documents how these Nazi bomb components were then used by the Manhattan Project to complete both the uranium bomb dropped on Hiroshima and the plutonium bomb dropped on Nagasaki, to defeat the Japanese and win World War Two and global domination in the modern age.https://amzn.to/3TVIyhnBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

The Surrendered Life by Alpha and Omega Christian Fellowship "Weekly Sermon"

The Surrendered Life by Alpha and Omega Ministries International

What if prayer wasn't about getting the words right, but about being real? In this tender and honest conversation, Janet and Doug sit down with poet and author Tanner Olson, whose new children's book All the Things I Say to God is helping families make prayer a natural part of everyday life. They explore Tanner and his wife's journey through infertility and adoption, the power of surrender, and what it means to live a creative life anchored in faith, family, and honest conversations with God. You're in the Right Place If… You want to raise kids who feel safe enough to talk to God about anything. You're in a season of waiting, wondering where God is in the silence. You've ever wrestled with not being in control, but longed to feel secure anyway. Highlights from the Conversation: Prayer as Presence – How Tanner's book models that sitting quietly with God is just as valid as speaking out loud. Love in the Waiting – Their shared experience of waiting for children—and discovering that grief and joy often share the same space. Peace Over Performance – Why surrender isn't giving up, but choosing safety in God instead of control. Creative Callings – Tanner's story of becoming a poet, the faith of his parents, and the courage it takes to follow a different path. Key Takeaways: Children don't need perfect prayers. They need permission to speak to God like they speak to someone who loves them. Surrendered doesn't mean powerless. It means safe and secure in the hands of a faithful God—even when you don't have all the answers. Waiting can be formative. Love, art, and spiritual maturity often grow in the in-between spaces. We are receivers first. God is the initiator, and our job is to remain open—to receive, respond, and create from love.

Has the Church Surrendered to Pride?

In this episode of The Miracle Frequency, I share the real shift that changed everything for me – moving from structured manifestation processes to fully surrendered creation. After years of teaching vibrational alignment and helping clients quantum leap their income, I started feeling the burnout of constantly chasing, clearing, and recalibrating. What unfolded was a deeper understanding: true manifestation isn't about deciding on desires, it's about embodying the frequency and letting your highest self reveal them to you. We dive into why most desires come from the limited mind, and how trusting your higher self leads to manifestations that are more aligned, expansive, and effortless than anything you could script. I share how magic unfolds when you drop judgment, release control, and live fully in the unknown – and why your highest timeline cannot be mapped by the mind. This is manifestation, not through force, but through freedom. Let's surrender and receive.   With love and divine frequency, Susan x Links + Resources: > Download your free Effortless Manifestation Blueprint > Explore current programs + offerings → www.susanfrancis.com.au> Follow on Instagram → @iamsusanfrancis> Follow on TikTok → @iamsusanfrancis If you loved this episode, please hit Subscribe and leave a rating + review -  it helps this work reach more souls ready to activate their highest timeline.

Have you ever found yourself clinging tightly to control, only to feel even more out of control? I recently had the opportunity to interview a guest who asked a powerful question: “What if I can’t let go?” It’s a question that resonates with so many of us. We long to live fully and freely, but fear, insecurity, and the weight of comparison hold us back. We think holding on will help—but true strength is found in surrender. In this episode of The Love Offering podcast, I chat with Caitlin Mentzel about her book More Than Conquering: A Season of Surrender where we explore:

Pastor Ray Bentley on God's plan for our lives. God's goal for your life and mine is maturity. Too often our prayers are spent wanting to be sheltered from the very things that will bring that maturity and trustworthiness. God cannot build our character without our cooperation. If we resist him, he will chastened us into submission. If we choose to submit to him, he will accomplish his work, and that is our maturity.

The scripture calls us to arm ourselves with the same way of thinking as Jesus, ceasing from sin and living for God's will rather than human passions. This shift requires us to step out of our comfort zones and spectator mentalities, putting our faith into action even when it means facing opposition or ridicule. The passage reminds us that the end of all things is near, urging us to be self-controlled, sober-minded, and earnest in our love for one another. As we reflect on this, we're invited to consider how our lives might change if we truly lived with an awareness of Christ's imminent return. Are we using our God-given gifts to serve others and glorify Him? This message encourages us to move beyond casual Christianity and into a deeper, more committed relationship with Jesus, one that's willing to suffer for His name and stand firm in faith.

Who listens to you? In this message, VFC house church pastor, Tom Van Gundy shares how you can be a person that impacts lives for God. 2 Kings 5:1-8[1] Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master and in high favor, because by him the LORD had given victory to Syria. He was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper. [2] Now the Syrians on one of their raids had carried off a little girl from the land of Israel, and she worked in the service of Naaman's wife. [3] She said to her mistress, "Would that my lord were with the prophet who is in Samaria! He would cure him of his leprosy." [4] So Naaman went in and told his lord, "Thus and so spoke the girl from the land of Israel." [5] And the king of Syria said, "Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel." So he went, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten changes of clothing.  [6] And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, which read, "When this letter reaches you, know that I have sent to you Naaman my servant, that you may cure him of his leprosy." [7] And when the king of Israel read the letter, he tore his clothes and said, "Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man sends word to me to cure a man of his leprosy? Only consider, and see how he is seeking a quarrel with me."[8] But when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, he sent to the king, saying, "Why have you torn your clothes? Let him come now to me, that he may know that there is a prophet in Israel."This little maid lived a life that made others listen to her. Your walk talks louder than your talk. Her life exhibited characteristics that enabled God to move with power through her. 1) Selfless compassion - This little servant girl demonstrated love. She wanted the best for her owner. 2) Steadfast Conviction - The servant girl had faith. She had absolute expectancy. Luke 4:27 None were cleansed except Naaman the Syrian. She believes even though she hadn't seen it. 3) Servant Consistency - She served well as she waited in Naaman's wife.

Send us a textOur guest today is none other than Brother Ray. Ray was once deeply entrenched in the dangerous world of gang life in Oklahoma. For 20 years, he was bound by this destructive lifestyle, fully immersed in its chaos and violence. His life led him in and out of prison time and time again, a cycle that seemed never-ending. But during his final time in prison, something incredible happened. He finally realized that God had always been with him, even in the darkest moments. From that moment on, Brother Ray has walked with the Lord, finding redemption and purpose in His grace.

Britain's Political Prisoners: Lucy Connolly Starmer Opens Borders to MILLIONS in EU Surrender

In this powerful and transparent episode of Journey to Wholeness, I sit down with Kimberly Richardson, known as The Faithful Healer, to explore what it truly means to have a surrendered mindset. From surviving childhood trauma and emotional neglect to walking into the overflow of purpose and restored relationships, Kimberly shares how letting go of control and fully surrendering to God reshaped her healing journey.With over 15 years of experience as a registered nurse and now a Christian Mindset and Emotional Freedom Guide, Kimberly walks us through how spiritual awakenings, therapy, and radical self-acceptance became her tools of transformation.Whether you're trying to navigate your own healing, break free from perfectionism, or learn to trust God in the process—this conversation will encourage you to release the pressure and embrace the power of surrender.Let this episode remind you that you don't have to have it all figured out to be walking toward wholeness. Sometimes, your “yes” is the beginning of everything.

If you revisit all the beaches where you built sandcastles in the sun, chances are, you'll never even find a one.  The constant pull of wash and wave reduces all the outposts where we once asserted sovereignty. Our turrets and our towers, our moats and battlements have long since lost the struggle to insist on what was never really ours. And so it is as grace subdues the castles of our pride and self-assertion. The lovely, unrelenting rhythm of God's kindness and His mercy overruns our fierce objections and erodes our staked positions. While we were sleeping at our stations, we were flooded by forgiveness, cracked and circled by repeated offers of redemption. And for many—all who acknowledge they are beaten—grace reclaims a life that always was the property of God. Unless you build cement into your soul—unless you daily and deliberately refuse the pull of God's unceasing love—you'll yet surrender to the grace that outmaneuvers all our pride. With the apostle Paul, you'll soon exclaim, “But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief, and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ” (1 Tim 1:13-14). There is an hour for yielding crumbling fortresses to grace. Your hour has come. The tide is in. Rejoice in what you used to fight. And stay in grace. -Bill Knot

Recently, Grace's Women's Ministry sent 10 women to share the gospel in a hostile nation. In this episode, Delaney talks with Kelly and Rachel about their experience trekking in the mountains to reach unreached women and children with the gospel of Christ. They faced many challenges, but God provided and brought many to faith! Listen to hear more about this trip and be inspired by what He is doing around the world.

Chuck Todd, former moderator of Meet the Press and host of The Chuck ToddCast, joins Dan to assess how the news media has responded to Trump 2.0. His read? Not great. He and Dan lament cable news' tired playbook, discuss Craigslist's indirect role in electing Donald Trump, and question whether broadcast news may be in the early stages of a kleptocracy. Then, turning to the Democratic Party, Chuck and Dan debate which fights Democrats should focus on, what voters will want from the party in 2028, and whether the right is exploiting President Biden's decline to undermine the left's faith in journalism.

Susan Hollern is the Founder and President of Hope Haven Rwanda, a transformative educational initiative that empowers students and families in post-genocide Rwanda. Based in Sedalia, Colorado, Susan brings a background in entrepreneurship, real estate, finance, and deep faith to her work—driven by a personal calling to serve others through bold obedience and a surrendered life. Her leadership has turned a humble school under a tree into a thriving institution that now educates over 2,000 students annually, with a vision of raising up the next generation of Christian world leaders. Susan joins us on The Wow Factor to walk us through her personal and spiritual journey—from growing up in Ohio with a strong work ethic and independent spirit, to experiencing a full surrender to God that changed her life's trajectory. She shares how a mission trip to the Philippines and a divine encounter at a Rwanda fundraiser set her on a path to found Hope Haven. Susan's story is full of wisdom, perseverance, and vision. Her mission isn't just to educate students but to support entire families and communities so every child has the chance to thrive—spiritually, emotionally, and academically. “I kept praying, ‘Use me.' But when you say that, be ready. Your life will not look the same—but I promise, it'll be better.” – Susan Hollern “Hope Haven started under a tree with 97 kids. Now we serve over 2,000 students. That's a miracle only God could write.” – Susan Hollern “I had to fully surrender—not just me, but my whole family. Once I did, I saw how much I'd been holding back from God.” – Susan Hollern This Week on The Wow Factor: How growing up with a strict work ethic shaped Susan's sense of independence The struggle of reconciling hard work with faith—and how surrender changed everything Her path from horse shows and real estate to founding a school in Rwanda The catalytic moment that connected her to Rwanda through a book, a handshake, and a mission trip How Hope Haven Rwanda evolved from a school functioning in a mud house and tent to a primary/secondary school and later adding a leadership institute for students to launch successfully into careers, impacting all 30 districts in the  Why true transformation goes beyond education—it's about changing families and entire communities The power of praying bold prayers, asking God to “use me,” and trusting Him in moments of pain and reversal Student success stories, including international math, AI, and debate competitions Her vision of raising Christian world leaders from some of the most underserved communities on the planet Susan Hollern's Word of Wisdom: If you want to live a truly meaningful life, don't just give part of yourself—surrender everything. It's not always easy, but it's the only way to live in full partnership with God's purpose. When you let go of control, you make space for miracles.
