The Support System: How Marshal's transformation sparked a fitness journey for his wife, turning their home gym into a hub of mutual accountability. Training in Quarters: Kyle breaks down the philosophy of dividing the year into four distinct focuses to prevent burnout and "wanting it all at once." Key Takeaways "I thought I would always feel fatigued and hungry... but I'm eating sandwiches with grilled onions and fitting it into my macros.

Minister Isis Underwood discusses how teachability is the key to accelerated spiritual development. The teaching contrasts the Western focus on gaining information with the Hebrew understanding of learning, which demands active, personal application. Referencing Matthew 7:24-27, the episode defines a fool as someone who ignores correction and highlights that wisdom requires both hearing and obeying God's word. Listeners learn to identify heart postures that hinder growth, such as being "smiling but defiant," "living defeated," or being "all talk but little action". The message concludes with instructions on moving to the center of teachability through humility, welcoming correction, and joyful repentance.
Main Point: God uses closed doors and detours to show us how he does great things… 1. Who Was Lydia? (Acts 16:6-14) 2. How Was She Heroic? (Acts 16:14-15) Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/mountaineer/innovation License code: 2WXYTG2IBDB4STCX

Thank you for listening to the LifeHouse Church Podcast. We pray that Pastor Tim Kreis's message 'The Lost Art Of Teachability' blesses you. For more details about LifeHouse Church visit www.Lifehouse.global or download the LifeHouse Church app.
The next spiritual discipline in Pastor Dana's sermon series is teachability. Moses addresses Israel in Deuteronomy 6:1-9 to teach them how to listen before entering the Promised Land, and Jesus explains to His disciples in Mark 4:22-24 that revelation is meant to be disclosed and made clear. Teachability is how God's light is allowed to be revealed, received, and lived. We practice teachability by returning to scripture, being willing to receive correction, and recognize that it is a lifelong pursuit.

In this episode of Shifting Schools, bestselling author Alan Gratz joins Tricia Friedman to explore the craft of storytelling, the role of creativity in education, and why curiosity is the engine behind both great writing and great learning. Gratz shares how baseball has quietly shaped the structure of many of his novels, how he approaches character development with authenticity, and why understanding a character's background is essential for emotional truth. The conversation also digs into the need for interdisciplinary learning in today's classrooms and the value of teacher collaboration. Gratz argues that creativity isn't a mysterious talent—it's a skill that can be nurtured, practiced, and strengthened when schools design learning experiences that cross traditional subject boundaries. Whether you're an educator, writer, or lifelong learner, this episode offers fresh insights into how storytelling helps us understand the human experience and how curiosity fuels both art and education.

Join Pastor Jim for Part 2 of the transformative "Mentor" series, where he delivers powerful truths about faithfulness, character development, and the path to promotion in God's kingdom. Through compelling personal stories—from cleaning church bathrooms and prison ministry to handling offense early in his ministry—Pastor Jim illustrates how God qualifies us for greater assignments by testing our faithfulness in small things. With a blend of humor, transparency, and biblical wisdom, this message will challenge you to become a "learn-it-all" instead of a "know-it-all," emphasizing that the currency for promotion is faithfulness, not giftedness. Whether you're seeking practical guidance on being mentored, looking for encouragement in your current season of service, or need a reminder about the importance of local church community, this message will inspire you to embrace God's character-building process with joy and excellence.
Discover why everyone needs a mentor in Part 1 of Pastor Jim's compelling two-part series that will transform how you approach growth and learning. Pastor Jim encouragingly unpacks 13 powerful mentor mandates—from understanding that mentors are shortcuts to success, to recognizing that God stores portions of your destiny in someone else's wisdom. This message challenges the "know-it-all" culture of our online age and calls believers back to authentic community and biblical accountability. Whether you're navigating life transitions, seeking direction, or simply want to grow deeper in your faith, this message offers invaluable insights on learning from mistakes, choosing correction over permission, and embracing the mentors God places in your path—because moving forward with mentors is always better than cleaning up from consequences.
Raising the next generation is not a top-down project. It lives or dies in the middle. From Acts 18, Pastor Adam shows how Aquila and Priscilla quietly took Apollos aside and turned raw zeal into sharp effectiveness. Along the way: Nokia vs. Toyota culture, Jethro's counsel to Moses (Exodus 18), the tragedy of Judges 2, Titus 1 order, and a USS Wisconsin illustration on “recommissioning” veterans to train the new crew. This sermon calls gifted Apolloses to be teachable and seasoned Aquilas/Priscillas to re-engage.Scriptures: Acts 18:24–28; Exodus 18:17–22; Acts 6:3–4; Romans 16:3–4; Judges 2:7–10; Titus 1:5; 1 Kings 12:8; Proverbs 20:5.00:00 Opening humor and setup01:24 Acts 18 and the Nokia vs. Toyota lesson05:16 Aquila & Priscilla take Apollos aside09:12 The role of middle management in ministry13:01 Obstacles: pride in Apollos, comfort in elders20:40 Judges 2 and the generational gap25:02 Teachability and drawing out counsel31:10 Wise correction and practical involvement34:46 USS Wisconsin illustration: recommission the veterans37:07 Testimony of Gus Carrillo & closing callShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

She’s back! It's the return of Dr. Rosalie de Rosset. She'll talk about the idea of cultivating the discipline of teachability. Being a know-it-all isn't a fruit of the spirit.

We gathered to study fellowship, love, and spiritual growth through Galatians and 1 John. We reflected on how true fellowship is Christ-centered, requiring us to lay aside personal agendas and embrace self-sacrificial love. Using the story of Mary and Martha, we considered how humility, sitting at Jesus' feet, and receiving His life represent the heart of genuine fellowship. We examined the dangers of serving with personal motives, recognizing that such distractions hinder intimacy with Christ and disrupt unity in the local assembly. God's Word was seen as precise, convicting, and protective—sharper than any reasoning of man. We concluded that teachability, submission to proper teaching, and prayer are essential to avoid pseudo-service and to experience real fellowship in Christ.
Michael Kisaka reflects on Mark 10:13-16, where Jesus welcomes children and says we must receive God's kingdom like them. He highlights childlike qualities—humility, trust, simplicity, sincerity, teachability, innocence, devotion, and love—illustrated by a little girl who saw no barrier of skin color.

This summer, we're exploring Proverbs and its powerful themes. Today, we're tackling fools. While the joke writes itself, I know the men here are anything but. I see men yearning for wisdom, seeking to be better fathers, husbands, and men. I'm proud to link arms with you. Today, we'll bless the fathers and ask God to guide us in wisdom.Key Points:Proverbs and Categories of People:Proverbs describes the world as it is, not just as it should be. It uses categories like the righteous, wicked, wise, and fool to describe generalities.While we're all unique, wisdom comes from understanding these simple patterns.God is direct; He hates sin and pride. This directness isn't mean, but a part of His character, as seen in the Law, Prophets, Psalms, and even Jesus' parables (sheep and goats, wise and foolish virgins).Our "squishiness" about these terms can stem from taking sin too lightly. God takes sin seriously, and so should we.Understanding the "Simple," the "Wise," and the "Fool":The simple person is naive or inexperienced. This isn't bad; Proverbs is written for the simple, like a father instructing his son (Proverbs 1:4). To gain from Proverbs, we must see ourselves as simple.The wise person has a teachable spirit and puts God's authority in the right place, understanding that "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge" (Proverbs 1:7).The fool is the opposite of wise. Proverbs 1:7 concludes: "fools despise wisdom and instruction." A fool is not interested in learning or growing; at their heart is pride, believing "I've got this."Characteristics of a Fool in Action:Self-Righteous and Opinionated: Puts full weight on their own views, ignores others (Proverbs 12:15, 18:2).Quarrelsome and Reactive: Always ready to fight, broadcasts emotions (Proverbs 15:5, 29:9). Social media can make us fools, amplifying these temptations.Resistant to Correction: Hates reproof, stuck in a loop of repeating mistakes (Proverbs 15:5, 17:10, 26:11).Wisdom's Warning (Proverbs 26:12): "Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him." This calls us to humility; when God corrects, will we learn or push back?The Seduction and Consequences of Folly:Lady Folly is loud, seductive, and knows nothing (Proverbs 9:13). She tells us what we want to hear, making us feel good while leading to ruin."There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death" (Proverbs 14:12). Our culture says "follow your heart," but the Bible says our intuition needs God's shaping.Folly is deadly serious: It leads to disgrace, destruction, and hurts the community (Proverbs 13:16, 10:27, 26:10).While modern safety nets may buffer immediate consequences, foolishness still leads to a "slow dripping away of life" – broken relationships, limited opportunities, loneliness.Dealing with Fools:If you have authority: Punish foolishness for the good of the community. This sets an example for the simple (Proverbs 19:25). Don't honor foolishness. In parenting, actively train children in wisdom, as "folly is bound up in the hea Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

Scripture References: Proverbs 3:13-18, Proverbs 4:7, Proverbs 1:22, Colossians 1:16, Colossians 2:3, Ephesians 4:17-18, Matthew 28Intro:Hey everyone, we're kicking off a new summer series in the Book of Proverbs! We'll explore wisdom's themes each week. You can also grab our summer reading plan at the connect table to devotionally read through the whole book. By summer's end, you'll have journeyed through Proverbs, seeing its practical wisdom for your daily life with God.Key Points:Proverbs is a Wisdom Book:It emphasizes the urgency of seeking wisdom. Proverbs 4:7 says, "Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom, and in all your getting get understanding."In a culture of acquiring, let's prioritize getting what truly matters – wisdom.Proverbs 3:13-18 highlights wisdom's value: "Blessed are those who find wisdom… for wisdom is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold… Nothing you desire compares to her." It's imperishable, worth holding onto.Proverbs Offers Practical Wisdom:This isn't just about spiritual knowledge; it's about wisdom for every corner of our lives: relationships, work, goals, resources.If our wisdom isn't relevant to most of our life, it's not biblical wisdom.The root word of Proverbs means "to be like," inviting us to compare our lives to its principles. It's a "plumb line" for daily living.Ancient Hebrew culture saw life as a seamless garment – no separation between sacred and secular, public and private. Proverbs is a "timeless portable teacher."Proverbs Defines the Wise Person:The book divides people into two simple categories: the wise and righteous or the fool and wicked. There's no middle ground.Proverbs 1:22 asks, "How long, inexperienced ones, will you love ignorance?" or "How long, you simpletons, will you love naivety?" God's Word compels us to choose a side.A wise person is humble, seeks knowledge, listens to instruction, accepts correction, controls emotions, and brings joy to others.Obstacles to Teachability:Narrow Belief of Knowledge: We can mistakenly believe learning is only spiritual. Colossians 1:16 reminds us that everything was created by Him – the sacred and the mundane. God cares about every detail of our lives, even parking spaces!Assuming Full Understanding: We often face "crises of understanding" rather than "crises of faith." Loving God isn't the end of learning; it's loving God with our minds. Truth is eternal, but knowledge is changeable (Madeline L'Engle). Don't confuse them.Inability to Unlearn: God may want to rearrange our thinking. Jeremiah 1:4-10 shows Jeremiah needing to unlearn his self-perception to embrace God's calling. What do we need to unlearn about our identity in Christ?Pride and Sin: Sin distorts our thinking. Ephesians 4:17-18 describes futility in thinking and darkened understanding outside of Christ. But as children of God, we've been brought into the light (Ephesians 5:8) and in Christ are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:3).Conclusion:This summer, as we become more teachable and pursue wisdom, remember we're not seeking wisdom for its own sake. We're pursuing it to know the one who holds all wisdom: Jesus. When you know Him more, you'll simply want to know Him even more.Call to Action:Let's approach the table with humility, acknowledging we don't have it all figured out, but we're coming to the one who does.

Paul, Jon, and Liz continue their conversation about discipleship. "Two thousand years after Jesus's death, the Church of Jesus Christ is absolutely massive—there are three billion confessing Christians. If you're going to start the world's biggest, most enduring organization, how would you go about it? It's striking that Jesus doesn't go to the rabbinical schools or to the elites." "We laugh at the disciples for their clumsiness, but we miss the beauty of their lack of pretense." "Probably the most important thing in hunting for people to disciple is hunting for teachability. You just don't get teachability when people are on a hierarchy. I love schooling; I've been a supporter of Christian schools my whole life. I'm not knocking school or systems of learning, but you really have to be careful that you don't create hierarchies of knowledge. Jesus is always tearing down these hierarchies, and he does it with the kind of people."
