In this episode, I sit down with drummer and Hawaii native Pili Fronda, and fair warning: you might learn more about Hawaiian history, food, geography, and culture than you bargained for. And I'm not mad about it…because I love Hawaii as much as Pili does. This conversation might've started out about drums, but before we even hit the 10-minute mark, we were deep in the mountains of Maui, eating poke in Vegas, dodging cliffs on the road to Hana, and breaking down what it really means to grow up Hawaiian.Pili shares powerful insight into his upbringing, the meaning behind his full name (which you're going to want to hear him pronounce), and how the cultural values instilled in him shaped not just his character, but his entire musical path. We also talk about the community-centered spirit of the islands, the way music is woven into Hawaiian education, and how Pili's musical influences—from reggae to Latin percussion to gospel—led him to the national tour of Mrs. Doubtfire.Later in the episode, we dig into his process for landing that tour gig straight out of college, how he prepared for it, and what it takes to thrive on the road. This is an inspiring conversation with a young musician who's doing things the right way, with humility, discipline, and heart.This Substack is reader-supported.

You have heard it said that there are only two certainties in life: death and taxes. I'm here to add a third certainty to life: temptation. Temptation exists everywhere because we still have sin within us. Its power has been broken by our putting our faith in Christ and having the Spirit living inside us. This means that we don't have to sin every time temptation comes along like we did before Christ. But we aren't away from sin's presence yet. And if there is anything we learn about temptation is that it is persistent, usually more so than we are. Joseph's case turned out to be different than a lot of ours. Despite the constant temptation, Joseph, quite impressively, resisted it. One theologian thought that Joesph's ability to rule himself was more impressive than running the country of Egypt (Matthews). How do temptations actually work? How did Joseph resist them so well? How can we learn how to resist temptations better? Do things always go better when you resist temptation? We will try to answer those questions as we look at our two points today: Temptations want your loyalty, yet only God will be loyal to you.

The Lord's Prayer is very ancient-future. Why? It's time-bending. It's Body-uniting. It gathers up what has come before us, it focuses our minds on the current state of our situation in Christ, and it casts our thoughts into the future that someday we, the Body of Christ, will sit down at the ultimate eschatological banquet that will never end. Are there some parts of the prayer, though, that confuse or trouble you? Say, the part about God not "leading us into temptation"? Join Pastor Chris for a close look at Luke's account of the prayer that Jesus taught His disciples. The artwork associated with this pocast/sermon (viewable on the Epiclesis website but not in Apple Podcasts) is titled "The Lord's Prayer" and is by Darren Gygi (detail).

This sermon from Mark Skillin explores the temptations of Jesus in the wilderness, drawing from Matthew 4. Just after His baptism and the declaration of His identity as God's beloved Son, Jesus is led by the Spirit into the desert to be tested by the devil. The sermon connects Jesus' testing with Israel's wilderness journey and with our own seasons of struggle. Where Israel failed, Jesus is faithful. And where we are tempted to satisfy ourselves, demand signs from God, or take shortcuts to glory, Jesus shows us a better way—one of humility, trust, and obedience. Most importantly, we are reminded that Jesus didn't just model how to resist temptation; He overcame it for us. In Christ, we are not alone in the wilderness. He is the faithful Son who succeeded where we fall short—and now offers us His strength, His Word, and His Spirit to endure every trial.

Medan George Clinton förgäves försökte bestiga Motownberget, hade unga britter hedrat musiken som var djupt förankrad i hans psyke. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Clinton insåg att han hade förbisett sina bästa möjligheter, och vände nu blicken mot vita psykedeliska band och deras riffbaserade pyroteknik.Han föreställde sig ett nytt område där han kunde operera bortom soul- och rockmusikens gamla lagar. Parliaments skrangliga försök att ansluta sig till tidens hitskapare ersattes av en ambition att tolka de revolutionära strömningarna. Detroit var ett epicentrum för uppvigling. En vanlig kväll kunde man höra Stooges, MC5 och Funkadelic på samma scen. Alla var inne på friformjazz, experiment med gitarrljud, rytmisk förnyelse och sinnesutvidgande droger. Funkadelics debutalbum satte tonen för 70-talet.I avsnitt två möter du även Garry Shider, Billy Nelson, Sly Stone, Norman Whitfield, Temptations, Bernie Worrell och Archie Shepp.

Luke 22:40-46 - Preparing For Trials and Temptations

Pastor Mike Impact Ministries

Today,we're continuing to meditate and look atthe scene of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane with His disciples. Remember, Heleft eight of them somewhere—we're not sure where—but took three of them,Peter, James, and John, a little further. Then immediately He told them inverse 40, “Pray that you enter not into temptation.” Now Matthew'sGospel tells us that He also said to them at that time, “Stay here and watchwith Me.” And then He went a little further and fell on His face andprayed.  Weknow that Jesus, when He prayed the first time, said, “Not My will, but Thywill be done,” to the Father, He came back and found the disciples sleeping.Jesus is praying and He asked them to pray. He needs the comfort and assurancethat the disciples are there with Him during His time of trial—His time oflaying down His life, of accepting the cup of sins of the entire humanity. Heneeds that support in prayer. If Jesus needed support in prayer, how much moredo we need support in prayer? Now,these three disciples, instead of praying, all fall asleep. Luke also tells us inverse 45, that He came after He prayed the last time and found them sleepingfrom sorrow. They're overwhelmed with sorrow. Jesus, as He shared the cup ofthe Lord's Supper with them had been telling them, “I'm going to die. This isMy flesh, this is My blood,” and reminded them that the Lamb had to die, and thatHe was the Lamb who was going to die. They're overwhelmed with sorrow. Theyexpected Him to set up His Kingdom, and He's talking about dying. That's why Jesustold them in John 14:1, “Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God,believe also in Me.” Jesus saw the trouble in their hearts, the sorrowthat's overwhelming them. But now, instead of praying, they're sleeping becauseof sorrow.  Twoof the Gospels tells us that their eyes were heavy with sleep (Matthew 26:43;Mark 14:40). They were also overwhelmed with just physical tiredness. Andthat's a bad place for us to get into—where we're emotionally, physically,mentally, and spiritually worn out to the point that we cannot pray. The secondtime when He came and found them sleeping, He said to them, “Watch andpray.” In Matthew 26:41, we read that Jesus also said, “that you enternot into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” RememberPeter's declaration just minutes earlier? “If I have to die with You, I willnot deny You.” (Matthew 26:35). Okay—the spirit is willing. Especially whenwe go to church on Sunday morning and hear the message or the Sunday schoollesson, and we get around God's people, we feel strengthened. We feel strong.And we leave saying, “Man, I'm going to serve Jesus this week. I'm going tolive for Him. I'm not going to go back to those old habits and sins that takeme away from Him, keep me from praying, and keep me from getting up andspending time in the Word with the Lord in the morning.” Andyet, as willing as the spirit is on Sunday, Monday morning comes, and the fleshis weak. Or when the trial and the time of temptation comes—my friend, theflesh is weak. It's weaker than we ever imagined. Peter didn't know himself aswell as he thought he did. And neither do we.  Fromthis experience, Peter later writes in 1 Peter 5:8, “Be sober, be vigilant;your adversary the devil goes about like a roaring lion.” I'm convinced thedevil was out to kill Jesus there in the Garden of Gethsemane—to keep Him fromthe cross. I mean, the bastions of hell surrounded Jesus as He goes to thecross (Psalm 22:12-13). But Jesus is prepared, He prays three times. He praysand yields in obedience to the will of the Father. The disciples? What are theydoing? Sleeping.So,when the moment of temptation comes, what happens with Peter and the disciples?They all forsake Him and flee. Jesus stands strong, yields Himself as a Lambgoing to the slaughter, and goes with the soldiers to be crucified.
