Latasha, has a powerful story. We met up for Thanksgiving for an impromptu podcast moment to share her testimony and journey in life. It was quite timely as she gave thanks for what she was able to accomplish with the help of others and much prayer and faith. She is a Licensed Social Worker with the city working as a CUA Case Manager. She talks about how she had her first son at 17 and was kicked out of her home by her parents and dropped of school. The years that ensues was a struggle. But she has overcome the worse it seems and now has her Masters and wants to inspire others. Listen to the episode.

It has been a week! Between dad duty and holiday ministry season gearing up, we're exhausted. Andrew tried an experimental medical treatment on his kids and almost died performing “other duties as assigned.” Tim had back to back to back ministry nights out. Lakeview is interviewing candidates for their worship leader position, and Safety Harbor had their annual pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving feast. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/morningafterministryshow/message

I recently had the privilege of hosting an episode of my podcast, Living The Sweet Life, all about gratitude and thankfulness for Thanksgiving. In this episode, I shared practical ways to infuse gratitude into your holiday celebrations and how it can transform your mindset. Here are 3 key takeaways from the episode: 1️⃣ Embrace the True Meaning of Thanksgiving: Thanksgiving is not just about the perfect meal or the stress of getting everything right. It's about being grateful for the people in our lives and cherishing the time we have with them. Shift your focus from perfection to presence and create meaningful memories with your loved ones. 2️⃣ Engage in the Alchemy of Gratitude: Gratitude has the power to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary memories. By cultivating a daily practice of gratitude, you can experience joy, fulfillment, and resilience. Let the practice of gratitude be a catalyst for positive change in your life and inspire others around you. 3️⃣ Create a Ripple Effect of Gratitude: Expressing gratitude not only transforms your own life but also has a ripple effect on those around you. Share your gratitude authentically and specifically with others, uplift their spirits, and inspire them to express their own gratitude. Together, we can create a culture of appreciation and love. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tj-sweet/support

It was Halloween, or Fall Fest, and some churches went all out, but does it even matter? We've had a death in the congregation at both of our churches this week, and even though the circumstances were vastly different, they have both been hard. Andrews's church is gearing up for the pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving. Tim's church got a jump on Christmas. Both Safety Harbor and Lakeview kicked off new series in Philippians. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/morningafterministryshow/message

CD 1568 Becoming Conquerors by Colossians - session 12Sunday Morning July 16, 2023 - (Donna's Birthday!)"PRAYER , THANKSGIVING and PREACHING”In the 3 verses in this Epistle we are going to cover this morning the Holy Spirit is going to tie these 3 things together in our lives: “PRAYER , THANKSGIVING and PREACHING”!TEXT: Colossians 4:2-4  [KJV] Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; 3 Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:4 That I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak.#1 PRAYER - “Prayer is the link that connects us with God and each other”!*REREAD: Colossians 4:2  [KJV] Continue in prayer...Note “CONTINUE” #4342 "Continue perseveringly" -  "persevere" by being constantly diligent!First Connect with God:*Read Acts 10:30-33 (KJV) 30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing, 31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. 32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. 33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God. *Read Acts 10:44-48 (KJV) 44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Cornelius could have said I am not a Jew  - meaning I have no covenant with the Lord God Almighty! What good would it do me to pray? What good would it do me to give alms - to act like God the Father and be a sacrificial giver? No he got to know God - he connected with God and learned:*Read Matthew 21:22 (KJV)  And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.Secondly Connect with Each Other:Read *Ephesians 6:18 (KJV) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;   *Read Act 2:46-47 (KJV)  And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, 47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.*Read Hebrews 10:25 (KJV) 25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. #2 THANKSGIVING - “Thanksgiving is the link that reveals our faith and hope in God”!*REREAD: Colossians 4:2  [KJV]  Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; Note “watch” #1127 to keep awake and be vigilant!Note “thanksgivi

Welcome to November 24, 2022 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate freedom of choice and a meal that brings us together.  Anna: In this season of gratitude, perhaps some of you are grateful you don't have to cook a turkey today. Is anyone out there celebrating Turkey Free Thanksgiving? Yep that's a thing. I know you cook turkey two ways John. John: That's right - roasting and smoking. Anna: And you probably aren't on the hook at all for cooking a bird, eh Marlo? Marlo: I just show up. John: Come on down! Anna: But in case anyone else wants to take this off the menu it's totally legit. Think of all the time you'll save and wondering whether to brine or not to brine. We probably should have told you in advance this was an option. But if you find yourself with a roasting emergency, don't call the turkey hotline, just announce that you're proudly celebrating a Turkey Free Thanksgiving. Sarah Hale, the author of Mary Had a Little Lamb, played a key role in our celebration of Thanksgiving. In 1862, she wrote to President Lincoln, asking him to make Thanksgiving a national holiday. Though he didn't respond for another year, Lincoln fulfilled her request in the midst of the Civil War. He declared the holiday by asking Americans to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November as a Day of Thanksgiving and Prayer. Today we carry on that tradition in many different ways but Thanksgiving Day is still an opportunity to bring family and friends together in the spirit of gratitude.  I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson. Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day.

Matt and Ty are releasing this week's episode a little early, in case people wanted to listen before Thanksgiving. Speaking of that, there's almost no Thanksgiving talk in this episode, save for a few thoughts at the beginning. We're talking hockey, football, and Black Friday. Here's the rundown... (6:32) Matt gives a spoiler-free review of Ghostbusters: Afterlife. (12:05) The Bruins are struggling offensively, and the guys examine what's wrong right now as well as the bigger-picture concerns. (30:37) Ex-Bruins goalie Daniel Vladar shut his former team out with the Flames, which led to all sorts of wild takes. Naturally, Matt & Ty push back. (44:22) A radio host said the Patriots won't win because they lack "weapons." The guys get into why this take stinks. (59:11) Matt & Ty reveal their "Big 3" items that would cause them to actually go shopping on Black Friday.

Philippians 2:12-18 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed-not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence-continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose. 14Do everything without grumbling or arguing, 15so that you may become blameless and pure, "children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation." Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky 16as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain. 17But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18So you too should be glad and rejoice with me. Psalm 28:6-9 Praise be to the LORD, for he has heard my cry for mercy. 7The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. 8The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. 9Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever. Romans 1:21-25 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles. 24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator-who is forever praised. Amen. This is a mini series to look at how we can give Jesus thanks on the Thanksgiving holiday as oppose to just stuffing our faces with turkey. This episode looks into defeating sin through the power of thanksgiving towards Jesus as a lifestyle. Happy Thanksgiving and… LET'S DIVE IN!

Here's Barbara Rainey. Barbara: Lent is to Easter what Advent is to Christmas—does that make sense? Lent is to Easter what Advent is to Christmas. Both of them are times of preparing to celebrate God's intervention on our behalf—the coming of Christ at Christmas and then the sacrifice and resurrection of Christ at Easter. Both of them are very important holidays, but Easter is the most important. Bob: This is FamilyLife Today for Monday, March 27th. Our host is the President of FamilyLife®, Dennis Rainey, and I'm Bob Lepine. We'll hear today from Barbara Rainey about what we can do, as moms and dads, to draw more attention to the most important day of the year—Resurrection Day. Stay with us.  1:00 And welcome to FamilyLife Today. Thanks for joining us on the Monday edition. If any of our listeners are not interested in getting fired up about Easter and the resurrection of Jesus, they ought to go ahead and tune the—turn their channel somewhere else right now. Dennis: I'm telling you—this is the greatest season of all. I love Christmas—I think Christmas is fantastic. Obviously, Easter would not be possible had not Christmas come first. But this [Easter] is the holiday on which all of the Christian faith really pivots. Bob: Your wife is joining us this week.  Barbara, I used to think that Thanksgiving was your favorite holiday. Didn't it used to be your favorite holiday? Barbara: It did—used to be my favorite holiday. Bob: But something has happened. Barbara: It's not anymore.  Bob: Why? Barbara: I still love Thanksgiving / Thanksgiving is great fun. But I absolutely love Easter; because I have come to understand it in a way that I didn't, years ago—what it's all about and how pivotal it is, as Dennis has just said.  2:00  Without Easter, nothing else would matter. We wouldn't have Thanksgiving; we wouldn't have Christmas; we wouldn't have anything because we would still be in our sin. We would have no hope; and we wouldn't understand forgiveness; and we wouldn't understand love. It's everything. So, to me—because I've come to understand that Easter is all about everything that God intended—to me, we need to do a better job of celebrating it. Bob: It's interesting—if you read I Corinthians 15, which is that resurrection chapter— Barbara: Right. Dennis: Did you look over my shoulder? Bob: I did not! [Laughter] Paul begins that chapter by saying, “This is of first importance.” He said, “I delivered to you what is of first importance.” Then he goes on and he says it's the gospel / the good news. You can summarize the gospel into: Jesus died, He was buried, and He was resurrected—that's at the heart of our message. He goes on to say [paraphrased], “You take that away, we got nothing.” Barbara: Right; he said, “If Christ wasn't raised, our faith is in vain.” 3:00 Dennis: Yes; that's what I was reading—I Corinthians 15, verse 17-19. If you haven't read it—to your children; to one another, as husband and wife; or to a friend—you just ought to remind somebody of this truth / it says, “And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile,”—empty—  Barbara: —pointless— Dennis: —“and you are still in your sins,”—which means you're still guilty, as charged, before Almighty God and you are falling under the wrath of God. Then it goes on to say, “Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished,”—they don't have eternal life / they died—they went to hell! And verse 19, “If in this life only, we have hope in Christ, we of all people are most to be pitied.”  What's Paul saying there?—if Christ did not defeat death / if the resurrection is not a reality, then we are without hope.  4:00 Bob: We are basing everything on a lie. Dennis: I mentioned it earlier—all of Christianity pivots on the reality and the historical fact that Jesus Christ lived, died, rose again, and is seated at the right hand of God. Bob: Barbara, you had the opportunity, a number of years ago, to share with our listeners at an event. You were sharing about your growing burden and passion for the celebration of Easter. It's interesting to listen back to this because you can see how it's starting to formulate and take shape in your own thinking. Again, this is from a few years back, as Barbara is connecting with a group of our listeners about why Easter is so important. [Recorded Message] Barbara: About a year ago, Dennis and I were listening to a sermon by Tim Keller.  5:00 During the sermon, he quoted this stanza of a hymn; and I had never heard it before. The stanza of the hymn [Thou Art Coming to a King] goes like this—that I memorized: Thou art coming to a King, Large petitions with thee bring.For His grace and power are suchNone can ever ask too much. I just thought: “Wow! I am coming to the King every time I pray.” So often, I come with little things—selfish things: “Lord, help me find a parking place,”—just trivial, dumb stuff; right? But when I heard that that day, I thought: “I'm coming to the King. God wants me to come before Him with prayers that are worthy of Him.” It's not that He doesn't want us to pray about small things—I still pray about small things—but it lifted my eyes to the magnitude of who He is and what He wants me to do.  After I heard that and I kept thinking about it—I kept saying those verses over and over in my head—I said, one day—I said: “Lord, what do You want me to pray?  6:00 “What large petitions do You want me to bring before Your throne?”  The first thing that popped into my head was “Easter.” I thought: “That's it! I'm going to start praying that God would give me the privilege of helping us change the way we celebrate Easter.” I have been thinking about it anyway; but when I heard those stanzas out of that hymn, I thought: “That's it! I want God to use me and many others to help change the way we celebrate Easter—not only in our country—but around the world.”  I'm going to explain to you why I think that's so important. I want to tell you a little bit about the history of Easter and also the corresponding holiday of Lent. From this—I read in A.W. Tozer's book—he said, “To the early Christians, Easter was not a holiday.” We think of it as a holiday; don't we? He said: “It wasn't even a holy day. It wasn't even a day at all—to the early Christians.”  7:00 He said, “Instead, it was an accomplished fact that lived with them all year long.” He said, “They did not celebrate His rising from the dead and then go back to their everyday lives and wait another year.” He said, “They lived by the fact that Christ had risen from the dead and they had risen with Him.” That's the way Easter should be celebrated. When I read that, I thought: “That's what I want! I want to help us, in this country, find a way to elevate the celebration of Easter; because it is the pinnacle of our faith. If it were not for the cross, we would all be lost.” We should celebrate it as the important event that it was in our lives.  I want to tell you a little bit about Lent, because Lent is something that I've been recently discovering. I grew up in the Methodist church. We never talked about Lent / we never celebrated Lent.  8:00 I had a lot of friends, as a child, in the Catholic Church. They celebrated Lent; and it didn't make sense to me / I didn't understand it.  Lent was first sort of instituted many, many, many centuries ago out of the Council of Nicea in 325. Three hundred years after Christ, the church fathers got together. They were writing documents to help clarify people's faith and to put into writing the universal statements and tenets of our belief. During that council, they wrote a piece about Lent. They wanted to give believers several practical ways of celebrating church life. It was described as a 40-day time period to mirror Jesus' 40 days in the wilderness.  Lent was given to the churches to prepare believers for Resurrection Sunday. Lent also means “the lengthening of days.” So, as we begin Lent, it's still wintertime; but by the time we get to Easter, the days are longer /spring has come. So, the word, “Lent,” also means “the lengthening of days.” 9:00 Here's what I want you to remember to think about it—Lent is to Easter what Advent is to Christmas. Both of them are times of preparing to celebrate God's intervention on our behalf—the coming of Christ at Christmas and, then, the sacrifice and resurrection of Christ at Easter. Both of them are very important holidays, but Easter is the most important. But today—and you all know this just as well as I do—there is a great disparity in the way we celebrate those two holidays; isn't there?—a big, big difference! How much time do you spend celebrating and preparing for Christmas?—if you'll just think about it / you don't need to give me answers—but more than likely, most people in this room spend days and weeks getting ready for Christmas—decorating for Christmas, shopping for Christmas, cooking for Christmas. Some people spend months; right?  When do we start thinking about Christmas?  10:00 A lot of us start thinking about Christmas in January. We start thinking about our list—we find things on sale. I mean, I used to do this—it was more of a practical matter for me. Ashley, my daughter, does it; because it's a practical matter for her. I used to find things on sale; and I would think, “Oh, that would be a great gift for this child,” so I would buy it and stick it in a closet. Because of everything that's wrapped up in the Christmas holiday, we start thinking about it really early. If you don't start thinking about it in January, you might start thinking about it in June or July; if not in June or July, most people—for sure—in the fall. In other words / the point is—we think about it way before the actual day. By contrast, how much time do we spend thinking about and preparing for Easter? When do you start thinking about and preparing for Easter? If you're like most people—maybe, on Palm Sunday, which is seven days before Easter Sunday—maybe, not even until Thursday or Friday before Easter Sunday—or maybe not at all / maybe, Easter Sunday is just another Sunday. 11:00 That, to me, is really, really sad. I think the modern reality for most of us is—we do a little something / we may have a special dinner. If you have kids at home, they may get new clothes, you have little Easter baskets or whatever, and you go to church. Then, we come home—and life is back to normal—watch TV, watch golf, do errands, kids do homework. There's nothing really different about the day in which we celebrate the resurrection of Christ. Did you know that Jesus never told us to celebrate His birth? He never told us to celebrate His birth. What did He tell us to celebrate? What did He tell us to commemorate and remember?—His death, burial, and resurrection. He told us to focus on His sacrifice for us.  12:00 What do we do? We get it all backwards. There was a poll conducted in 2012 asking people some basic questions about Easter. Only 55 percent correctly identified Judas as the man who betrayed Christ—only half of the people interviewed correctly knew who Judas was. Another question was about Pontius Pilate. Again, only half of the people correctly knew who Pontius Pilate was. There were some people who thought he was one of Jesus' disciples. And then, another question—the response was really low. There were only 21 percent of these people interviewed who knew anything about what Good Friday and Easter was. It's such an illustration, again, that the meaning of Easter has been lost. I think, if the poll were taken on Christmas, more people would know that Christmas was about Jesus' birthday.  13:00 I want to encourage you to begin to think about Lent. It's been kind of a new discovery. I've noticed, in our church—we go to a Bible Church—and our church is beginning to put some emphasis on Lent. I'm really grateful that they are. For the last two years, we've had a Lent service on Ash Wednesday; and it was a wonderful service.  So, let me tell you just a little bit about Lent. Sometime after the Reformation—I don't know when—most Protestant churches began to distance themselves from the practice of Lent. Lent was a very integral part of believers' lives from the Council of Nicea in 325 until sometime after the Reformation. The Reformation started with Luther, when he nailed his 95 theses on the door of the church. For a long, long time, Lent was an integral part of church life; and then it kind of began to go away.  As I said before—Lent is to Easter what Advent is to Christmas. It's a wonderful time to prepare for the greatest moment in history—the resurrection of Christ.  14:00 A lot of people give up something for Lent. It's not necessary to do that, but the whole point of Lent is to prepare your heart to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Let me give you a couple of tips on practicing—or what to do with Lent—if you decided you want to do this and it's a foreign concept. Here are a couple of things that might be helpful.  It's a time, first of all, to prepare for Resurrection Sunday. Secondly, it's a time for families to grow together spiritually and biblically. We have a product called “Messiah Mystery™.” If you have children—and even if you don't have children—you might want to consider doing this. This is a product that we've created for Lent. It's a resource to help you and your family focus in on the need for Jesus Christ: “Why did He come? Why did He have to die? Why did He sacrifice His life on our behalf?” It's simply six sessions that you do once a week.  15:00 You start on Ash Wednesday. Then, a week later, on the next Wednesday, you can do session two; then session three; and so on. It takes you up to Easter Sunday.  What it does is—it walks you through the Old Testament. In Session One, it talks about Adam and Eve in the Fall—and what that meant for us, as human beings—yet, how in the very first words that God spoke right after the Fall, He gave a promise that there would be a Messiah. Then, another lesson is on the Passover; another lesson is on the Temple and all the symbolism in the Temple that hinted at the coming Christ. It's a way for you, in your home, to grow together, during Lent, and build some anticipation for Easter Sunday. Another suggestion on Lent is that many people fast from something during Lent. It doesn't have to be food—I know people who have fasted from Facebook® / I know people who have fasted from reading books or— 16:00 —it doesn't really matter. The point of it is—the reason that choosing to give something up for Lent is meaningful—is because it reminds us that Jesus Christ gave everything for us. Some people choose to do that because it's a way to remind them, on a daily basis, for the six weeks of Lent, that: “Jesus Christ gave His all for me. Therefore, I can sacrifice something for Him.” Then, last, for those people who do choose to fast—Lent is 46 days long. The reason it's 46 days long and not just 40 is because the church has historically regarded every Sunday as a mini-Resurrection Sunday. So, Sundays are to be celebrated / Sundays are to rejoice in—Sundays are not a time to fast and to mourn. If you choose to do that, you fast Monday through Saturday. Then, on Sunday, the fast is broken. You celebrate the risen Christ on Sunday and then, again, on Monday, you would start the fast again. 17:00 [Studio] Bob: I remember, in the years when we had children at home, and we were participating in Lenten fasts—there were nights on Saturday night when we waited up until midnight because then it was Sunday — Barbara: You could eat! Bob: —and we could eat those chocolate chip cookies. We were baking them. [Laughter] Barbara: —at 11:00 at night! Bob: Oh; yes! It was a big deal! Dennis: I think God knows that we, as human beings—we need to celebrate. It's clear—He had seven different feasts in the Old Testament. The nation of Israel enjoyed to celebrate who God is, what God had done, what God was going to do. In fact, there were three feasts around the issue of Christ's coming, and defeating death, and resurrection that the Israelites celebrated—one of which was called Passover. 18:00 Barbara: I started learning about Passover a few of years ago in Bible study. The significance wrapped up in the Passover celebration, which included two other feasts— the whole group was called Passover—but the symbolism and the prophetic elements that look forward to Christ are just amazing.  A year ago, I remember—I came to Dennis and I said to him, “I think we should go to the local Jewish temple and experience Passover with them; because they do it together. They all gather and they do Passover, and the Rabbi leads them through the Passover experience. I said, “Let's go see what that's like.” So we bought our tickets, and we— Dennis: No, no, no! It's not that simple, Bob! I said: “Say what? You want to go to a synagogue?” And you said? Barbara: I said: “Yes! Let's do it.” Dennis: I've got to tell you—it was a great experience / it really was fun to go do it; because it took us back and immersed us back to the Old Testament. All of this proclaimed who Christ is— 19:00 —that He has come, He died, and He rose again, and He's coming back! I was so glad we went to that, because it really gave us a sense of our biblical roots around a very common celebration for Christians, here in our country. I think, if you have never been to a synagogue or to a temple, maybe it's time to venture out during Passover and see if you experience what I experienced. Bob: At the center of the celebration of Passover was the Lamb who was slain for the forgiveness of sin. Barbara: One of the things that is so interesting about Passover is that the story comes out of Exodus, when the children of Israel were in Egypt. God commanded them to get a lamb—every family had to get a lamb, and they kept the lamb—then, on the 14th of the month, that lamb was then killed and sacrificed for their sin. They did that for the first time in Egypt, the night before Pharaoh let them go.  20:00 One of the things, if your family ever watched the movie, The Ten Commandments, one of the things that is so memorable about that movie—one of many things—is they show the Israelites, literally, with a bowl of blood and some kind of a brush; and they painted on their doorways. First of all, it's an illustration of Easter. It's a clear picture of what Christ did for us—He shed His blood for us so that we would be passed over, which is where the word, Passover, comes from.  A fun exercise for families is to actually pretend to do that. Go out to your front door—I've done this at our house. You can buy washable finger paint in red, and you can literally paint it around your door. It will wash off—I did it; and it will come off, even if your doorframe is painted white. Or you can get a red ribbon or a red sash and hang it over your door on the night of Passover—or on Good Friday—because that's when Christ died—was on Passover / on the actual Passover day that year.  21:00 It's a way to bring the two feasts together, practically, today with our families—to bring Passover into our present-day Easter experience. Bob: You've got a resource you've created called “Behold the Lamb,” where you have printed eight cards, each one using one of the I AM names of Jesus from the Gospel of John, each one designed to be read on a different day during Holy Week, with the last one on Resurrection Sunday. Throughout the week, these cards can be displayed in your home on a chained garland—that you created—with I AM in the middle of it. In addition to the “Behold the Lamb” resource, there is the “He Is Risen Banner” that you hang on your front door. On one side it has a lamb—and it says, “I am the Resurrection and the Life” and on Easter morning, you flip it over, and there is a crown, and it says, “He is Risen!” Go to FamilyLifeToday.com if you'd like to see what Barbara has been working on. Again, all of these resources have the same goal in mind—  22:00 —you want to see us more focused, more aware, more thoughtful about the Easter holiday as we prepare for it and as we celebrate it on Resurrection Sunday. Our website, again, is FamilyLifeToday.com—you can see all that Barbara has been working on there. Or if you have any specific questions or would like to place an order by phone, call 1-800-FL-TODAY; and someone on our team can help with any questions you have.  This really syncs up with what listeners have told us, over the years, they are looking for from us; because they have said the spiritual training, and equipping, and formation of their children is their number one parenting priority—the number one thing they want help with. We try, regularly, to provide practical biblical help and hope for your marriage, for your family / for you, as parents, as you are raising your children. The resources we are creating, these radio programs, the articles we have online—all of it is designed to help your home stay centered in Christ.  23:00 We appreciate those of you who partner with us in this endeavor and help us reach more and more families every year by supporting the ministry of FamilyLife Today. Every time you support this ministry, you are making it possible for more moms and dads / more husbands and wives to get the kind of practical biblical help and hope that you hear on this program every day. A special “Thank you,” to our Legacy Partners for your regular support—it makes a big difference, here at FamilyLife.  If you can help with a donation today, we'd love to send you, as a thank-you gift, a set of “Resurrection Eggs®”—a dozen plastic eggs designed to help your children or grandchildren better understand the last week in Jesus' life—from His triumphal entry all the way through to His Resurrection.  24:00 That's our thank-you gift when you go online to make a donation at FamilyLifeToday.com; or when you call and donate at 1-800-FL-TODAY; or you can request a set of “Resurrection Eggs” when you mail your donation to FamilyLife Today at PO Box 7111, Little Rock, AR; our zip code is 72223. Tomorrow, we'll talk more about how we can make Easter a bigger deal in our homes and with our families. I hope you can join us for that. I want to thank our engineer today, Keith Lynch, along with our entire broadcast production team. On behalf of our host, Dennis Rainey, I'm Bob Lepine.

THANKSGIVING AND FUNDRAISING SERVICE - SPRINGS OF LIFE CHAPEL INTERNATIONAL

Date: 15th December, 2019 Speaker: Pastor Babatunde Oresanya Topic: Thanksgiving to God is for my good Text: 2 Chronicles 20:1-30, Psalm 148:7, 1 Cor4:7, 1 Thess 5:16-18 Message Human beings are naturally selfish and so we tend to focus more on the blessings that we don't have and we feel reluctant to thank him, as Christians we should always thank him because we have every reason to What is Thanksgiving? Thanksgiving is simply an expression of gratitude to God. Expression of gratitude can be verbal and non-verbal, verbally we praise God with our mouth, and non-verbally we praise God with our hearts, our actions. Our gratitude must not always be verbal, it can also be non-verbal and acceptable to God and it must come from our heart. Who should give thanks to the lord? Let everything praise the lord both living and non-living. It is expected that every creature should praise the lord. Why is Thanksgiving to God for my good? Because thanksgiving is commanded by God. Thanksgiving is for our good. Thanksgiving crucifies our pride. Praise and thanksgiving attracts God's presence. Thanksgiving and praise changes our spiritual climate. It provokes God to action on our behalf Prayers Lord, help me to always thank you Lord, continue to strengthen me to give thanks to you

Follow-up about gratitude post Thanksgiving: Thanksgiving and all the thoughts of gratitude become overshadowed by the shopping frenzy and preparing for the holiday season.  Being inundated by ads can lead us to become dissatisfied with what we do have because it isn’t the newest and best, or we feel we “need” something that never occurred to us before.  We feel stress over preparing for the upcoming Christmas season. Our attitude of gratitude can slide into discontentment for lacking time or stuff.  In an attempt to satisfy our discontentment, we make purchases we can’t afford, which leads to a bigger dissatisfaction of going into debt and losing financial margin.  Being discontented isn’t necessarily bad depending on the source.  Being discontented because you lack financial margin can lead to planning a budget to get out of debt. Being discontented because of a career that is going nowhere can lead to seeking new opportunities.  Great results have come about because someone was discontented over things like lack of food and clean water available for people.  Discontentment can be good if it leads to action for improvement. This is where E + R = O from episode 7 is key. This is where being intentional with how you live your life from episodes 2-4 become foundational. Keep your focus on what you do have to be grateful for and experience the physical and mental health benefits we discussed in last weeks episode. Getting from where you are to where you need to be requires you to have a vision, a purpose, and a mission and follow through.  How do you make sure you aren’t drifting through life?  We will talk about that today and in the next few weeks as we begin our series “20/20 vision for 2020”. Vision:  Image of the future that you hold. Legacy of what your are, who you are.  A mural of you.  What you will leave behind. “The value of life is always determined by how much of your life is given away, not by what you accumulated or hoarded”.  -Andy Stanley Purpose:  This is a brief statement that captures who you are and your part in bringing your vision to life. You're calling, you're being.  What are your strengths and passions? Your answer to the question “Why am I here on earth?” Mission:  Doing. The particular ways you choose to fulfill your purpose in any given season. Author and career coach Dan Miller says a good mission statement should include three things: 1. Your skills and abilities (what you like to do) 2. Your personality traits (how you operate) 3. Your values, dreams and passions (why you want to excel Your vision, purpose, and mission must lead to planning and following through to mean anything. GOALS: Tasks that make up your mission What specific tasks need to be done and when they need to be done to actually accomplish your mission(s) in real life? Must be compatible with and contained within the mission, purpose, and vision. Don’t accept drifting through life, which is what will happen if you don’t know you're why (episode 4), and put together a life plan with associated goals to guide you.  This does not pigeon hole you, as missions, life plans, and goals can and will likely change or need modification in different seasons of our lives. This is particularly important in your encore stage of life, where you won’t necessarily be driven by your place in a particular organization and will have more control over your time.  Don’t let it slip away.  These are living and breathing documents and need to be reviewed regularly.  We will be working on this over the next few weeks so you can begin the year 2020 with 20/20 vision. Action Item:  Think about what your vision, purpose, and mission is or might be in any stage of life. Write it down and keep it handy as we talk about our life plans and goals over the next several weeks leading up to the new year.

 I had a wonderful time  performing in Santa Rosa and Fort Bragg this past weekend. In Santa Rosa, a Marine got pissed at me for making fun of Marines even though I was making fun of every branch in the military, including my own branch that I served, Navy.  In Fort Bragg, let's just say I literally saw a sign from God.  I also talk about how Thanksgiving is slipping through our hands and Christmas is turning into a two month long holiday. Well we must put a stop to it. We must eat turkey and celebrate Thanksgiving, we must : Make Thanksgiving Thanksgiving Again!   Don't forget to email me at  mmipodcast19@gmail.com  https://mikebetancourt.com  #SantaRosa #FortBragg #Thanksgiving  

Happy Turkey Month Tanner Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. For the month of November I decided to cover Full House S1E9: The Miracle Of Thanksgiving, which aired on November 20, 1987. In this episode It's the first Thanksgiving without Pam and her entire family feels the effect of their loss. D. J. takes over Thanksgiving dinner, but when things fall apart - both the dinner and emotions - the boys help the girls and each other through it. I loved this episode. For anyone who has lost a loved one let me tell you the first major holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas can be really rough. I know it will be for me especially this Christmas not having my Dad here. If I could I would give John Stamos an award for his acting when he breaks down in front of Danny and reveals how much he's hurting at the loss of his sister Pam. I know Uncle Jesse is supposed to be this tough, hip and cool guy, but there is nothing wrong with displaying emotion and letting your feeling be known, regardless of gender. You can't hold it in and bottle it up, let it out. Believe it or not there are others in the world who have experienced the same hurt and pain that comes with losing someone they love and were close to, know that you're not alone in that. After the episode I play a couple scenes from the show Party Of Five S1E10 Thanksgiving. I wanted to do this to shore a comparison, it's the Salinger siblings first Thanksgiving without their parents and they receive news that the drunk driver that killed their parents is being released early from jail. The kids deal with that in their own way. In the first clip the kids are deciding whether or not to go see the man who killed their parents and in the second clip Bailey goes to see Walter Alcott and unloads on him, especially when it comes to his baby brother Owen (who's about the same age as Michelle) and how he's going to be walking soon and his parents won't be there to see it and how Owen won't have any memories of their parents. That really made me think of Michelle and I wondered if Danny would have reacted like Bailey had in this scene if confronted with the drunk driver that killed his wife. Granted Bailey Salinger is a teenager anguished over his parent's deaths and Danny is a grieving husband. But still, it's all the same anger. Join me in two weeks when I cover Fuller House S2E6: Fuller Thanksgiving, which aired on December 9, 2016. In this episode the house feels overstuffed when the entire Tanner Family shows up for Thanksgiving, pushing DJs organizational skills into overdrive. Now this episode doesn't pack the same emotional punch as Full House The Miracle Of Thanksgiving but it's still fun and has a lot of heart with the whole extended family coming for Thanksgiving along with some uninvited guests that are welcome at the table. If You'd Like To EMAIL The Podcast I'd love to hear from you: omhcfhfhpodcast@gmail.com Have a great Thanksgiving and holiday everyone!

I know it will be for me especially this Christmas not having my Dad here. If I could I would give John Stamos an award for his acting when he breaks down in front of Danny and reveals how much he's hurting at the loss of his sister Pam. I know Uncle Jesse is supposed to be this tough, hip and cool guy, but there is nothing wrong with displaying emotion and letting your feeling be known, regardless of gender. You can't hold it in and bottle it up, let it out. Believe it or not there are others in the world who have experienced the same hurt and pain that comes with losing someone they love and were close to, know that you're not alone in that. After the episode I play a couple scenes from the show Party Of Five S1E10 Thanksgiving. I wanted to do this to shore a comparison, it's the Salinger siblings first Thanksgiving without their parents and they receive news that the drunk driver that killed their parents is being released early from jail. The kids deal with that in their own way. In the first clip the kids are deciding whether or not to go see the man who killed their parents and in the second clip Bailey goes to see Walter Alcott and unloads on him, especially when it comes to his baby brother Owen (who's about the same age as Michelle) and how he's going to be walking soon and his parents won't be there to see it and how Owen won't have any memories of their parents. That really made me think of Michelle and I wondered if Danny would have reacted like Bailey had in this scene if confronted with the drunk driver that killed his wife. Granted Bailey Salinger is a teenager anguished over his parent's deaths and Danny is a grieving husband. But still, it's all the same anger. Join me in two weeks when I cover Fuller House S2E6: Fuller Thanksgiving, which aired on December 9, 2016. In this episode the house feels overstuffed when the entire Tanner Family shows up for Thanksgiving, pushing DJs organizational skills into overdrive. Now this episode doesn't pack the same emotional punch as Full House The Miracle Of Thanksgiving but it's still fun and has a lot of heart with the whole extended family coming for Thanksgiving along with some uninvited guests that are welcome at the table.

Thanksgiving Day in the United States was November 25th this year, the fourth Thursday in November - as has been the custom for decades. So, why are we offering a thanksgiving celebration after Thanksgiving? I'm offering some Norse wisdom as scripture, and it says much about this. Basically, what Odin offers in these quotes from "Sayings Of The High One" are common sense that should be followed all of the time. And why not the same about Thanksgiving? Could it be that the lessons to be learned from this holiday deserve to be remembered and honored throughout the year? Could it be that the very point of the holiday is one which should be celebrated all of the time? So often, we are so good about observing holidays and other occasions in their season - and don't apply them the rest of the year! If you want proof, look at what happens in the secular world as soon as the Christmas season is over and the tree decorations are packed away. And so we offer, as with all of the Sabbats on our calendar, a celebration along with something to enjoy the whole year! Blessed Be!

Psalm 100
