Eric Van Buren grew up in Washington, DC in a stable home with hardworking parents and a strong family foundation, but his life took a turn after high school when fighting and drug dealing pulled him into the streets. After being arrested on a state murder charge and beating the case, Eric thought the worst was behind him — until the federal government indicted him on a major drug conspiracy. The feds sentenced Eric to life in prison, and he went on to serve 19 years inside some of the most dangerous federal prisons in the country, fighting to survive both mentally and physically. In this episode, Eric breaks down how a good kid ended up with a life sentence, what day-to-day survival in high-security federal prison is really like, and how he ultimately got his sentence reduced after nearly two decades behind bars. This is a raw, unfiltered story about choices, consequences, and redemption inside the federal prison system. _____________________________________________ #prisonstory #lifeinprison #truecrime #federalprison #survivestory #prisonlife #lockedin #realstories _____________________________________________ Thank you to PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode!

Here's what I am learning: It's easier to avoid temptation than it is to fight sin. If possible, we should avoid being in places where we know we will be tempted. But sometimes, temptation seems to come out of nowhere. What do we do? Main Points:1. We must deal with the temptation immediately. Don't wait. Don't linger. Don't think about it. Don't entertain the possibility. The longer you wait, the weaker you become.2. This means that we take immediate action against those thoughts which would lead us away from God's will for our lives. We cannot give place to thoughts of temptation. Let me say it again. The longer you wait, the weaker you become. We must become fierce in the battle against temptation. 3. Maybe as you listen to this episode, you acknowledge you've done a poor job in the battle against temptation. I get it. I've been there too. So, where can we find strength? We find strength in three things: God's Word, God's presence, and in community with other believers. Today's Scripture Verses:2 Corinthians 10:5 - “…take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”2 Peter 1:3 - “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him…”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

In today's devotional, Dr. Michael A. Youssef challenges us to examine our priorities to discover the source of impatience.   If you would like more insight into today's devotional topic, listen to Dr. Michael A. Youssef's sermon It's Contagious . . . Pass It On!, Part 4: LISTEN NOW

Today's Promise: 1 Corinthians 10:13 Temptation is a reality every Christian faces; however, it doesn't have to lead to defeat. In this episode, we discover the hope God gives us in every moment of temptation. You'll be reminded that you're not alone in your struggle, that temptation is common to all believers, and that God is always faithful.   We explore three life-changing truths: God understands your temptation, He limits what you face, and He always provides a way of escape. Because of the cross, sin no longer has power over you, and through Christ, you can endure and overcome every temptation that comes your way.   This episode will encourage you to stop living in guilt and start walking in victory. Learn how to recognize God's escape routes, stand firm in His promises, and boldly confess the victory that is already yours in Jesus Christ. You don't have to fall to temptation. God has already made a way for you to win.

Why does temptation always show up right after you think you're fine? Like it's been waiting for a cue. In Episode 167 – Temptation Strikes Back, the conversation keeps going on how Christians actually deal with temptation in real life, not the cleaned up version we pretend exists. We talk about why temptation feels repetitive, why it hits when your guard is down, and why church answers often sound confident but feel wildly unhelpful. This episode digs into the Christian perspective on temptation without turning it into a sermon. We unpack testing versus tempting, why self control gets oversimplified, and how guilt quietly becomes a leadership and culture problem inside the church. It's honest, messy, and way more relatable than most faith conversations about this topic. Hosted by Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman, this discussion stays grounded in real life experiences, humor, and the questions people actually ask when they're not trying to sound spiritual. If you've ever felt like temptation conversations miss the human part, this episode probably sounds uncomfortably familiar.

Building a Resilient Faith: A Synthesis of Key Themes Executive Summary This document synthesizes the core themes from a sermon delivered on the first Sunday of 2026 by Zach, a youth pastor. The central argument posits that the start of a new year should not be viewed as a simple "reset," as life's troubles do not magically disappear. Instead, the focus should be on building a resilient faith—the capacity to press on and grow stronger through struggle and hardship. Grounded in the scripture of John 16:33, the message presents two definitive truths: trouble in this world is inevitable, but this trouble is not final because Jesus has "overcome the world." This victory makes peace and confidence possible even amid life's most difficult seasons. The sermon provides a practical, three-question framework for developing this resilience: identifying the specific trouble ("What's happening?"), shifting focus to foundational truths about God ("What is true no matter what?"), and taking ownership of one's response ("What can you do?"), primarily through prayer and engagement with a church community. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. The Premise: Rejecting a "Reset" Mentality The sermon begins by challenging the conventional notion of the New Year as a monumental fresh start. It argues that while the calendar resets, personal burdens and ongoing struggles are carried over from one day to the next. • Critique of New Year's Superficiality: The speaker describes New Year's as a "weird holiday" where "nothing magically, like, disappears when it's January 1st." Problems from the previous week or year do not vanish when the clock strikes midnight. • Introducing Resilience as the Core Focus: Instead of concepts like "refresh or reset," the proposed theme for the new year is resilience. • Definition of Resilience: Resilience is defined as "our ability to move forward and grow stronger after we've struggled or failed or faced hard stuff in our life" and "our resolve to press on even when we feel so worn down or just ready to throw in the towel." II. The Challenge: Doubt and the Temptation to Quit The message explores how hardship and a lack of immediate results can lead to doubt and the temptation to abandon one's faith journey. This is illustrated through the speaker's personal anecdotes of quitting karate, soccer, and reading The Lord of the Rings as a child because he "couldn't see the value in moving forward" or "couldn't see the results quick enough." • The Slippery Slope of Doubt: When individuals feel worn down, doubt begins to seep in, particularly in their faith. This doubt manifests as a series of challenging questions directed at God. • Questions Arising from Hardship: The sermon provides specific examples of questions that emerge during difficult times: ◦ "Is God still worth following? If my family still is broken..." ◦ "Is God still loving? If I'm still battling with depression..." ◦ "Is God still as good as he says he is? Even when I don't see him showing up the way I want him to..." ◦ "Why should I keep doing this?" III. The Theological Foundation: John 16:33 The sermon's central argument is built upon Jesus's words in John, chapter 16, verse 33. This scripture is presented in the context of Jesus preparing his disciples for his imminent betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion—what the speaker calls "some of the worst trouble that his disciples have experienced in their lifetime." John 16:33: "I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart, I have overcome the world." This verse is broken down into two definitive, non-negotiable statements. A. The Certainty of Trouble: "In this world you will have trouble." This is presented as a fundamental truth of the human condition. • An Inescapable Reality: Trouble is not a possibility but a guarantee in a world described as an "incomplete" and "broken" plane of existence. Therefore, experiencing hardship should not be shocking. • Historical Context: The disciples, as "lower income Jewish men living in the Roman Empire," would have deeply resonated with this statement. For them, every day was a battle, and speaking against authority could lead to death. • Jesus's Own Experience: Jesus himself was speaking these words just before he would be "arrested, flogged, beaten, crucified." He was about to experience "the worst trouble." B. The Proclamation of Victory: "But take heart, I have overcome the world." This statement is the essential counterpoint, offering hope and a foundation for resilience. • Trouble is Not the End: Jesus's victory over the world through his death and resurrection ensures that trouble "is not going to be the end all be all to your life." As the speaker states, "Trouble is not the end for you, church. Whatever you face in your life, it's not the period in the sentence of your life." • Peace Becomes Possible: Because of Jesus's victory, peace is accessible regardless of the season or hardship one faces. This is a peace that comes from a "God who has been through it, who walks in it with you, and who has made a way for that trouble to only be temporary." • The Nature of Resilient Faith: A resilient faith is defined as "one that never gives up on God" because it is rooted in the truth that God has overcome life's worst struggles. IV. A Practical Framework for Building Resilience To move from theological principle to practical application, the sermon offers a three-question process to guide individuals through moments of trouble. QuestionPurpose & Explanation1. What's happening?To be honest and specific about the trouble being faced. This involves identifying the source of the struggle, whether it's a person who caused disappointment, an event beyond one's control, or even a fellow Christian whose actions have caused questioning.2. What is true no matter what?To shift perspective from immediate circumstances to the unchanging truths of God. This is not a "quick fix" and does not make the trouble less real, but it helps one focus on the reality that God is loving, in control, good, and present.3. What can you do?To focus on controllable attitudes and actions in response to trouble. While one may not be able to fix the entire situation, one always has a say in their personal response. V. Key Actions for Cultivating Resilience The framework leads to two specific, actionable steps for building a resilient faith in 2026. A. Prioritizing Prayer Prayer is presented not as a final, desperate act, but as a proactive first step. • Prayer as a First Step: A key quote emphasizes this point: "Prayer is not a last resort. Prayer is not a Hail Mary we throw when we feel like we have no other option. Prayer is a first step..." • An Invitation to God: Prayer is the act of bringing a situation to God and inviting Him to "have his way in it." The message reassures that God is not "scared by your questions or your doubt" or "thrown off by it." B. Engaging in Community Deep involvement in the church body is highlighted as a critical component of resilience. • The Role of the Church: The speaker encourages the congregation to "go deep into life with such a group of people" to lean on one another for support. • Refocusing and Growth: The community serves to "help refocus ourselves when things seem too troublesome and hard to see the truth." Mutual support is essential for growth and maintaining perspective. VI. Conclusion: The Call to Respond The sermon concludes with an invitation for the congregation to respond to the message in a tangible way. • An Invitation to Prayer: Attendees are invited to pray, either alone or with designated individuals (wearing green lanyards), during the final song. • Unburdening and Discovery: The moment is framed as an opportunity to be "open and honest with him about what you are walking through" and to "unburden yourself." It is a chance for one's resilience to grow by discovering a Jesus "who is here with us now and who has overcome the world." • Final Affirmation: The closing prayer reaffirms God as one "who sees us, who has met us where we are," and who has overcome life's troubles so that believers might know "real peace and have real eternal life."

Why does temptation always feel manageable right up until it isn't? Temptation rarely shows up wearing a warning label. In this episode, the conversation digs into how Christians actually experience temptation in real life, not the dramatic, headline-worthy stuff, but the quiet decisions that add up over time. The kind that usually starts with “this isn't a big deal” and ends with “how did I get here?” Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman talk through the Christian perspective on temptation without turning it into a sermon or a self help checklist. They explore how faith, leadership, relationships, and church culture shape the way temptation is handled, avoided, ignored, or over-spiritualized. There is also an honest look at why knowing better does not automatically mean doing better. The discussion stays grounded in real experiences, including how expectations placed on Christians and church leaders can make temptation harder to talk about honestly. Instead of offering polished answers, the episode leans into self awareness, accountability, and the uncomfortable gray areas most people recognize but rarely say out loud. Hosted by Nate and Dr. Joseph Tillman, this episode blends humor, candor, and thoughtful commentary in a way that is accessible for both Christians and skeptics who are tired of simple answers to complex issues.

What happens when the fragile Gospel of mutual care enters a world ruled by threat, hierarchy, and violence? In this episode, we sit with Jesus' most misunderstood words about the sword and trace how the nativity itself exposes the systems of control that surround us. Rather than resolving the tension, we enter it, asking what kind of life becomes possible when power is expressed through mutual indwelling instead of coercion. This is an invitation to imagine a world shaped not by fear, but by care.Thanks for reading!

In DTWOL… A Fresh Set of Eyes confronts the difference between physical eyesight and spiritual vision. This Godcast reveals that perception is not reality—revelation is solely given by the only true God. Through Scripture you'll see God's workmanship in Lydia. This Godcast will expose how sincere worship and religious devotion can exist without relationship; and why only the only true God must open one's heart. Listeners are invited to move beyond admiration into obedience, learning to see what Jesus sees and step into the harvest He's already prepared for His disciple's workmanship. This episode calls every disciple to fix their eyes on Jesus, walk in His Light, and live out a faith that's in motion in spiritual worship, mission by commission, and transformed sight and lives to produce fruit, amen? God's word:Genesis 3:6; 1 Samuel 16:7; Acts 16:14; Ezekiel 36:26–27; Ephesians 1:18; John 4; Matthew 20:29–34; Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.

Send us a textWhat if your strongest moment isn't at the start line, but at the finish? We open with a raw story from a 1994 missions trip to Nicaragua that spiraled into dengue fever and a surprising lesson about grit. From there, we zoom out to a bigger challenge: how do you push past the February fade and end the year with genuine momentum, not just good intentions?We anchor the conversation in Hebrews 12 and get practical. First, lay aside weights—those non-sin hindrances like distraction, worry, and unhealthy patterns that bleed your focus. Second, throw off the sin that clings. Temptation is personal, and freedom starts by naming what traps you and stepping into the light with courage. Finally, run with endurance. Your race isn't mine, and comparison steals joy. Expect blisters and setbacks. Endurance looks like getting up, bandaging what hurts, and moving again with your eyes fixed on Jesus.We also celebrate what God is doing in our community: dozens of salvations and baptisms, hundreds of prayer requests lifted, a growing Spanish translation ministry that helps families worship in their heart language, and new life groups designed to keep you moving when your willpower runs thin. If you've felt the gap between a bold January and a quiet stall by spring, this conversation offers a path back—clear choices, decisive action, and the strength that comes from walking together.Ready to finish stronger than you started?

As Christ the Center closes out another year of weekly theological conversation, this special episode reflects on God's faithfulness throughout 2025 by revisiting the most-watched and most-listened-to episodes of the year. Drawing from YouTube engagement, Camden Bucey highlights ten conversations that resonated deeply with listeners—spanning biblical exegesis, redemptive-historical interpretation, Trinitarian theology, apologetics, and pastoral formation. Together, these clips showcase the breadth of Reformed Forum's work: rigorous scholarship, confessional clarity, and a steady commitment to Christ-centered interpretation of Scripture. The episode also celebrates significant ministry milestones: thousands of students served through Reformed Academy, international reading cohorts across six continents, new books published, and the largest theology conference in Reformed Forum's history. Framed by the theme "Growing Together into Christ" (Ephesians 4:15–16), this highlights episode not only looks back with gratitude but looks forward with confidence—inviting listeners to partner in the ongoing work of theological education for the church worldwide.

Alex Harper grew up in Cleveland, Ohio with a good family and a normal upbringing, but at just 16 years old he made a decision that would change his life forever. While still in high school and later in college, Alex began robbing banks, eventually landing on the radar of federal authorities and being sent to federal prison for the first time. After his release, he tried to turn his life around, but bad decisions and old patterns pulled him back in, leading to more bank robberies and a second prison sentence. In this episode, Alex shares how he went from a regular kid to a repeat federal inmate, what federal prison was really like, and how he eventually found his purpose and truly turned his life around. _____________________________________________ #TrueCrime #PrisonStories #FederalPrison #BankRobbery #LifeAfterPrison #CrimeStory #RedemptionStory #LockedInWithIanBick _____________________________________________ Thank you to K9S.ORG for sponsoring this episode: Donate anytime at https://k9s.org/ Connect with Alex Harper: https://www.instagram.com/votealexharper/?hl=en Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Robbing Banks at 16 – How It All Started 01:35 First Arrest, Probation & Learning the System 04:22 Life After Prison: Supervision, Temptation & Pressure 06:00 Family, Childhood & Where Things Went Wrong 09:00 Early Gambling Addiction & Sports Betting Obsession 13:25 High School Double Life & First Bank Robbery 15:53 Escalation: More Robberies & How He Avoided Getting Caught 21:22 Bank Robbery Tactics, Mistakes & Hard Lessons Learned 25:54 College Life, Personality & Living Two Lives 29:44 Law School Dreams vs. Gambling Addiction 35:23 Getting Caught: The Moment Everything Fell Apart 41:31 First Time in Prison: Survival, Hustling & Reality Check 53:54 Running Gambling Operations Behind Bars 01:03:12 Released From Prison… Then Slipping Back 01:13:20 Second Sentence & Destroying Family Relationships 01:27:00 Depression, Accountability & Choosing Change 01:37:20 Life After Prison: Recidivism, Struggles & Reality 01:55:24 Finding Purpose, Giving Back & Redefining Success 02:08:00 Why the System Makes It Hard to Stay Free (Final Thoughts) Learn more about your ad choices.

Do you know who you are? Are you feeling weak and lost in the wilderness? Rabbi Schneider shares that overcoming temptation is rooted in knowing your identity in Christ, learning how to live in faith and not in presumption, and understanding that fame, riches, and glory of the world are the seduction Satan uses to pull us away from God the Father. If you have compromised your faith for worldly gain and glory, you can repent and come back to God. The fight against the world, the flesh, and the devil will be constant all the days of our life. Knowing our identity and leaning into God's word for strength when we are weak is crucial. Fight the fight of faith and overcome temptation in the power of Jesus name.   **** BECOME A MONTHLY PARTNER - https://djj.show/YTAPartner **** DONATE - https://djj.show/YTADonate **** TEACHING NOTES - https://djj.show/azs

Kyle invites veteran youth pastor John Kidd to join the podcast to discuss teaching about sex to students. John recently taught a series to his students on the topic, which he titled "Cheap Sex." John gives us insight into how he prepared for the series and some of the resources he turned to. He also helps us understand some of the differences between temptation and desire. They also tackle the idea that love is not affirmation as opposed to the cultural narrative that love is love. John also reminds us to know our audience, know the influences they are facing, and to know the parents of our students, so that we can tailor our teaching accordingly while always remaining anchored in God's Word.

Jesus Followers Will Be Tempted, but God “will not let you be tempted beyond your ability . . . to endure” MESSAGE SUMMARY: You will be tempted again and again, but the temptation itself is not the sin. The sin resides in your grabbing onto the temptation; dwelling on the temptation; and following through on the temptation. Jesus was tempted, and He always faced temptation by quoting scripture to the temptation source. As Jesus tells you about Temptation and sin in Matthew 18:7-8: “Woe to the world for temptations to sin! For it is necessary that temptations come, but woe to the one by whom the temptation comes! And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire.". Also, Paul, in 1 Corinthians 10:13, confirms that God will not permit us to be tempted in a manner that we will be unable to resist: “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.". You can follow Jesus' example by using scripture to deal with a temptation – there is scripture to deal with every temptation that you may face.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Most merciful God I confess that I have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what I have done, and by what I have left undone. I have not loved you with my whole heart; I have not loved my neighbors as myself. I am truly sorry and I humbly repent. For the sake of your son Jesus Christ, have mercy on me and forgive me; that I might delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of Your Name. Amen.  TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Anxiety. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Peace. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Matthew 4:1-11; 1 Corinthians 10:13; Hebrews 4:14-16; Psalms143:1-12. A WORD FROM THE LORD WEBSITE: www.AWFTL.org.

What motivates our prayer? Do we see God as our “divine genie,” or do we look to him as our Father? We learn that the most common temptation in prayer is a lack of faith. Another major temptation is acedia or sloth. In the face of these temptations of presumption and discouragement, we must respond with filial trust in God our Father, the giver of all good gifts.
