January 30 2025 Thursday Week 40 / Your Place In Him Adult Teen Challenge / May 4 2023 #findoutwhoyouare My Vision My vision is to teach the world Who They Are In Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior! To Teach them what the Bible says about them and who they have been made to be in the promises of God's Word. This changed my life years ago and completely transformed me from a person full of doubt, fear and unbelief to a strong confident Christian that knows I can do anything through Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. And I'm determined to teach the world what God has taught and commissioned me to teach and that is His Word. That commission takes me to jails and detention centers weekly along with other open doors at many churches and ministries that are wanting to teach these important truths to the world. My podcast goes out 6 days a week to help the people I am ministering to grow in the truths that God has taught me for many years now. This podcast is free to all that want to listen and grow strong in who God has made them to be in Christ Jesus their Lord and Savior. My Prayers For The World Ephesians 1:15-23 NLT 'Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God's people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.' Ephesians 3:14-21 NLT 'When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God's love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.'

His letter to the Galations is a vigorous attack against the gospel of works and a defense of the gospel of faith. Paul begins by setting forth his credentials as an apostle with a message from God: blessing comes from God on the basis of faith, not law. The law declares men guilty and imprisons them; faith sets men free to enjoy liberty in Christ. But liberty is not license. Freedom in Christ means freedom to produce the fruits of righteousness through a Spirit-led lifestyle.

Joining me for this episode is: I'm Yahya Kazi, a 20-year-old entrepreneur and community advocate born and raised in Bakersfield, California. My passion for making a difference has driven me to wear many hats—volunteer, government worker, political team member, and nonprofit leader. One of my proudest achievements was leading a team of seven career professionals to raise over $15,000 in monetary and in-kind donations for Teen Challenge, a nonprofit focused on substance abuse rehabilitation. These efforts helped them open a new location in downtown Bakersfield, providing critical resources to those battling addiction. Now, I've embarked on a journey as an entrepreneur, teaching others how to improve their conversions on Skool. While I'm still early in my business career, my goal is to grow, succeed, and bring back the knowledge I gain to empower others in my community seeking their next big opportunity.

Let us know what you thought of the show!Jesus Wipes Away 30 Year Drug Addiction ImmediatelyKeith Weaver had a life of trouble, hardship, heartache, and multiple incarcerations due to his severe drug addiction. “That desire and that craving was always on my mind, calling in my brain all the time. It was just constantly,” he said of his dark past. Keith had tried to stop several times but found himself running right back to his vices. But one Sunday morning, a casual visit to his sister's church brought Keith into the arms of Jesus, and free from his 30-year drug addiction immediately. “You see, all these years I was under the impression that maybe if I could clean myself up, then I could come to Jesus, but I could never clean myself up. And the truth is, when I gave my life to him, he cleaned up for me.”Also learn about his family's persistent prayer for him and how the prayers were answered in restoration and new life in Christ.

Send us a Text Message.Today's conversation is going to be an encouragement for all our friends who are serving in the ministry, like pastoring a church, or preaching out on the weekends when invited, or serving as a lay youth pastor or worship pastor, while also carrying the weight of a full-time job in the secular arena. But we also hope to encourage so many others who may be considering this prospect in the near, or distant, future. Bi-vocational ministry often gets overlooked by vocational ministers, or even laity whose pastor is bi-vocational, as it can be misunderstood as being “part-time”. But our guest today, Rev. Robert Miller, is going to debunk this, and other myths about bi-vo ministry, easily from his own personal experience.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Rev. Robert L. Miller has served as the Chief Operating Officer of the North Texas District of the Assemblies of God and Lakeview Camp since December 2023, and Executive Director of the NTD Church Loan Fund and NTD Foundation since January 2018. Prior to serving in the North Texas District, Robert was the Lead Pastor at New Life Assembly in Collinsville, OK for eight years and has served in Pastoral Leadership for 20 years. Robert was a bi-vocational pastor while working in the financial services industry for 18 years prior to coming to the North Texas District. He holds a bachelor's degree in business management and an MBA from Southwestern Assemblies of God University. He also co-leads an intentional interim pastoral ministry and is currently serving a church as lead pastor through a season of transition since August 2023.

This is episode 172 of the MxU Podcast! Jeff and Spencer sit down with Nate Ellis and Josh Reeder-Esparza from the MxU team. They chat baseball, catch up on all things MxU and discuss a fairly hot topic. This one should get you thinking... spending money in the church should be difficult.Service Review (10:26 - 19:32)The guys review a service from Harvest Church in Riverside, CA. The energy in the room is incredible and there is powerful work being done through the ministry of Teen Challenge. The team offers some critique on guitar volume and vocal compression, just some minor changes to polish off what is already a great mix.Upcoming Content (19:33 - 23:49)Tomorrow, we're releasing a course all about PreSonus's UC Metro product which is designed specifically for remote mixing. UC Metro is a game-changing tool that allows remote control mixing from anywhere in the world with minimal latency. Stay tuned in to our socials and be on the lookout for an email for the course drop tomorrow! Spending Money in the Church Should Be Difficult (23:50 - 52:34)This might seem obvious... but we still hear from churches all the time "if I just had more money" or "if I could just get our new console approved" as if it will be the change they've always needed. And that might be true for some, but it's hard to believe that it's true for all. The guys give their take on this hot topic and discuss openly with their honest thoughts about financial stewardship in the church.LinksMxU Pop-UpsMxU

SHOWNOTES: Our youngest guest to-date, Aliya Kasabian recounts her chilling involuntary initiation into the Boise Girls Academy, an institution that masquerades as a haven for troubled teens. From controlling communication with families to enforced silence and the denial of basic necessities like tampons, Aliya's story exposes the depths of manipulation and coercion wielded by the program's directors. But resistance only extends your time at this prison-like “healing facility.” So, eventually, Aliya discovers that if she is ever to be free, the only way out is to become… a true believer.
