In this heartfelt episode, Granger and Tyler get real about grief, hope, and what it means to look forward after losing a loved one. The guys start off sharing news about the new podcast Instagram and some behind-the-scenes updates, but quickly dive deep into personal stories—reflecting on the recent loss of their grandmother, her remarkable life growing up in West Texas, and how grief changes when you’re rooted in Christ. From the rise of AI and how technology is changing our relationship with memory and loss, to practical conversations about the dangers of living in the past and the promise of eternal life, this episode wrestles honestly with what it means to say goodbye—and why, for Christians, it’s never really goodbye forever. Tyler opens up about processing his first loss as a born-again believer and Granger shares biblical wisdom from John 21 and 1 Thessalonians, pointing listeners to the hope found in Jesus rather than just memories or even the people we miss most. The episode also tackles listener questions—like how to love a spouse who isn’t yet a believer, and advice for a 17-year-old longing for marriage and family. Through it all, Granger and Tyler emphasize the importance of patience, prayer, and contentment in every season. If you’re grieving, feeling stuck in the past, or just need a reminder of the hope we have in Christ, this one’s for you. Hit play and be encouraged to fix your eyes forward—because the best really is yet to come. ********************************************** CONNECT WITH MY PODCAST: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmithPod YouTube► https://www.YouTube.com/@UCD1JSCn257RlatavklMALyg My NEW BOOK HERE▶ www.grangersmith.com APPAREL™️ GEAR ▶ https://YeeYeeApparel.com SUBSCRIBE HERE ▶ http://smarturl.it/gschannelsubscribe Subscribe to my family channel here ▶ http://youtube.com/TheSmithsTV TALK TO ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Instagram► https://instagram.com/GrangerSmith Facebook► https://facebook.com/GrangerSmith Twitter► https://twitter.com/GrangerSmith Website► https://GrangerSmith.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
David Meyer is bringing the message today on the question, “How can we talk to people about Jesus when they have no faith background yet struggle with objections?” We are honored to have David and Brenda with us today from Ecuador! This week, we will be looking at the way the Apostle Paul approached this question with the people of the city of Thessalonica. The people of Thessalonica weren’t that different in their thinking than those of our modern society. The Thessalonians thought of religion mostly in terms of what the myriad of gods could do for their own prosperity. The teaching of the Gospel, a free gift of salvation through the sacrificial death of a Man named Jesus on a Roman cross, was a difficult concept for the Thessalonians to digest. Paul gives us three principles in this chapter that we can use in sharing our faith today. First, our preaching must be with the boldness that comes from the conviction that we speak the truth. Second, sharing our faith is just as much about sharing our life of faith than it is about opening our mouth. And finally, the effectiveness of our message rests in the God who provides salvation, not on our own powers of persuasion.
(This podcast was previously recorded and published on August 11, 2020) Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney ... We cannot pursue fame, money and reputation among men and serve God. The only way we can be a servant of God is to do that which God tells us to do which is opposite to the way of this world. But our flesh wants fame, money and reputation. So there is a battle. How do we overcome our own flesh? This is the story of this Podcast. == I John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have in HIM, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS will, HE heareth us: 15 And if we know that HE hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of HIM. Matthew 4:8-11 Again, the devil taketh HIM (Jesus) up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth HIM all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto HIM, All these things will I give THEE, if THOU wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and HIM only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth HIM, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto HIM. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 (NASB) And you know what restrains him now, so that he will be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only HE (Jesus, the Word) who now restrains will do so until HE (Jesus, the Word) is removed. 8 Then that lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate with the breath of HIS mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; Titus 3:10-11 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself. Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ (the Word) which strengtheneth me.

In this down-to-earth and thought-provoking message, Pastor Nicole uses a tiny pebble and a kid's rock collection to unpack a powerful truth from 2 Thessalonians 3:6-7:The church cannot afford idle rocks.The Kingdom doesn't thrive on standstill saints.And your faith was never meant to stagnate.Through humor, heart, and conviction, Nicole invites us to examine our lives and ask: Am I building up the church--or unintentionally holding it back?Whether you feel stuck, worn down, or unsure of your purpose, this message will encourage you to trade idle living for intentional discipleship.

THE BOOK OF RUTH| GOD'S RESTORATION PLAN| Preservation and Prospective Living| Discipleship |Session-24| 2025| CHIMDI OHAHUNA Podcast Description: "Ruth Series: The Lord Deal Kindly with You - The Power of Prayer and Preservation" Welcome to the latest episode of our RUTH Series, where we explore the Bible text in Ruth 1:8b: “The Lord deal kindly with you...” In this powerful teaching episode, we examine the life of Naomi, a remarkable example of a woman of prayer whose faith and intercession shaped the destinies of those around her. This teaching illustrates the pivotal role of prayer in establishing personal preservation before we can extend our strength to others. Drawing insights from 2 Chronicles 20, we emphasize that prayer is not merely a ritual but a vital connection with God—our eternal need as children of God. Discover how praying for our own preservation is crucial, as it empowers us to support those who are weak, stemming from a place of strength. Throughout this episode, we'll clarify key scriptures such as Genesis 28:1-3, Acts 20:36, and 1 Thessalonians 5:17, demonstrating that the act of prayer preempts prominence in our lives. We'll also reflect on the idea that God, the Merciful Rewarder, rewards us according to the love and compassion we extend to others, highlighting the importance of sincere, heartfelt prayer in our relationships. As we reflect on Matthew 6:12, discover the responsibility of parents to continually pray for their children, understanding that our prayers hold immense power in shaping futures. Also discover why “Do-me, I-do-you” is not the divine reward system, and how only God knows our true needs, providing satisfaction beyond what any worldly exchange can offer. Inconsistency in our deeds can hinder the spiritual support we receive from others. However, by committing to do good, live well, and be steadfast in our faith, we invite a cycle of consistent prayer in accordance Ecclesiastes 5:4-5. Finally, discover the tendency to measure others by our own standards and explore the divine perspective that only God possesses. Instead of reciprocating obligations based on superficial judgments, the scriptures encourages us to engage in earnest prayer for those who bless us and seek God's empowerment to act out of genuine love and kindness. Get ready for an engaging and transformative teaching filled with biblical wisdom, practical insights, and heartfelt encouragement. Tune in to deepen your understanding of prayer as a profound act of faith, and discover how to cultivate a consistent prayer life that not only preserves you but uplifts and strengthens those around you. Let's embark on this enlightening journey together! Subscribe to GRACELIFECOMI and join us for a session that promises to stir your spirit and invite you closer to Christ!.

In this section of Paul's letter to the Thessalonians, we get a front-row seat to how Paul prays for the people he loves—and how we can use this as a template to pray for just about anyone.Whether you're praying for:A friend going through trials,Someone you're discipling,Or even an enemy who has hurt you—Paul's words give us a timeless framework for how to pray with power, purpose, and perspective.1. Start by Thanking GodPaul begins by expressing gratitude:“How we thank God for you! Because of you we have great joy as we enter God's presence.” (1 Thessalonians 3:9 NLT)Thankfulness is the foundation of prayer. Gratitude shifts your heart from bitterness to hope. This applies even when praying for someone difficult. Find something—anything—to be grateful for: a past good moment, their God-given potential, or how God is using the situation to grow your character.2. Pray for Your Impact on ThemPaul says, “Night and day we pray earnestly for you, asking God to let us see you again to fill the gaps in your faith.” (1 Thessalonians 3:10 NLT)Often, our prayers are entirely focused on the other person. Paul teaches us to also pray about how God might use us in their lives. Whether it's a friend, a disciple, or even an enemy, ask:“God, how do You want to use me in their story?”Be open to opportunities to encourage, equip, or even lovingly challenge them. Sometimes a simple text or sharing a podcast link can make a difference.3. Pray for Relational RestorationPaul continues, “May God our Father and our Lord Jesus bring us to you very soon.” (1 Thessalonians 3:11 NLT)Paul knew that Satan was actively trying to hinder their reunion. So he prayed for God to overcome the barriers. We should pray the same for any strained relationship in our lives, including enemies.Romans 12:18 (NLT) reminds us: “Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.”Sometimes reconciliation is beyond our control, but prayer invites God into the process.4. Pray for Their Love to OverflowPaul shifts to pray for the Thessalonians themselves:“May the Lord make your love for one another and for all people grow and overflow, just as our love for you overflows.” (1 Thessalonians 3:12 NLT)We can ask God to help others grow in their love—not only for fellow believers but also for everyone, even those who are difficult. It's also a moment to pray for our own heart:“God, help me love them the way You love...
Devotion : Care, Praise and Encouragement / 1 Thessalonians 2:1-15 by Community Lutheran Church
Years ago when I went on my first international ministry trip, I went just about as far as you can go - 10,000 miles to Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand. I was going to be away for three weeks, which was the longest I had ever left my wife and our three young children. My wife mobilized the kids to put little love notes all over and all through my luggage. We had a nice meal together on the way to the airport and then some special hugs and kisses at the airport. But I did have to go. And I'm not kidding you, it was a sad moment. My wife was trying to look like she was fine. The children were obviously not looking fine. I managed to hold myself together until I rounded the bend in the concourse, then I started wiping tears from my eyes. It was hard, but one thing made it OK. It was only temporary. We would be reunited. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Good News for Our Grief." Life's partings are tough when someone we love slips into eternity. Death rips us up inside, and the grief is sometimes almost unbearable. But because of Jesus, it's almost unbearable. I know, because I was the one several years ago burying the woman I loved - almost unbearable. Why almost? Well, I belong to Jesus, and my honey did, so that's not the termination of our relationship. No, because of Christ, it's just an interruption. I'm so glad. God describes this hope in our hurtingest times in our word for today from the Word of God in 1 Thessalonians 4, beginning in verse 13. "We do not want you to grieve like the rest of men who have no hope. For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command and the dead in Christ will rise first." That's my Dad. That's my baby brother whose death brought our family to Christ. That's my grandparents. It's more and more of my friends and the woman I loved for a lifetime. The Bible goes on to say, "After that, we who are still alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so will we be with the Lord forever." Wow! When Jesus walked out of His grave, He conquered death for all those who would ever give their lives to Him. It doesn't mean our heart won't stop some day in this earth-suit called our body, it will die. But it means the real you, your soul, will go on forever uninterrupted in God's great Heaven. Is it any wonder the Bible says, "Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where, O death, is your victory?" (1 Corinthians 15:54-55). You may be struggling with the loss of someone you love. I think I get that. The pain is very real. Death was never meant to be part of our lives. Sin brought in death. But Jesus died to pay the death penalty for our sin, and then, on Easter morning, He beat this monster that has beaten every person who ever lived. So now, because of Jesus, the very worst death can be for a believer is an interruption of the relationship, never a termination. Hallelujah! And if you've never put your total trust in Jesus Christ to be your Savior from your sin and its death penalty, please don't risk another day without Him. Would you tell Him, "Jesus, your death on the cross was to pay for my sin. It is my only hope of heaven. And the fact that You walked out of your grave proves that You can give eternal life that no one else can give. I'm Yours, Jesus, beginning today." If you're at that point where you want to begin that relationship and have that assurance, this is your day to check out our website and the information there that will help you know you've got this settled. The website is ANewStory.com. That day of my long trip...the pain, the tears were real. As they are on a much deeper level when someone we love is leaving us for eternity. But you can handle the leaving if you know what I knew that day at the airport...that this separation is only an interruption and hallelujah, the reunion is coming.

They were three adrenaline-fueled teenage boys, unleashed in the immense underground system connecting to Mammoth Cave. With them was their Uncle Frank, a veteran caver familiar with these parts. He knew the drop-offs and danger spots and continually called to the three, “Guys, this way!” Still, they ventured ever farther from him. Dimming his headlamp, Uncle Frank decided to remain silent. Soon, the boys realized they’d lost their guide. Panic-stricken, they yelled his name. No response. Finally, they saw his headlamp flicker to life in the distance. Instant relief and peace! Now they were ready to follow their guide. This true story makes an apt parable for how we can treat the gift of the Holy Spirit. Detours lure us away from the voice that calls us to follow the One who said, “Follow me” (Matthew 16:24). That voice is the Holy Spirit, who dwells inside each child of God (Acts 2:38–39). God’s Spirit will never abandon us, but we can ignore Him. The apostle Paul warns, “Do not quench the Spirit” (1 Thessalonians 5:19). Instead, “Rejoice always, pray continually,” and “give thanks in all circumstances” (vv. 16–18). By doing so, we stay close to our guide, “the God of peace,” who can keep us “blameless” (v. 23). It’s not our work that does it. It’s His. As Paul reminds us, “The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it” (v. 24).

Likewise, how often do you think about significant life events like marriage, graduations, retirement, etc?My guess is that you think about these things much more than you think about the judgment to come.

As we turn the page from prayer to Scripture in our "And Also" series, Pastor Jayden Zwerner opens up by helping us consider how God's Word becomes not just something we hear—but something we receive, hold, and live out. Teaching from 1 Thessalonians 2:13 and Matthew 4, Jayden explores how the Word of God was at work in the early church under persecution—and how it can transform us from the inside out today.Whether you're just learning to read the Bible or you've known the words for years, this message challenges you to move beyond information and into transformation.

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 ESV 23 Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 ESV 3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; 4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, 5 not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God…1 Thessalonians 4:7-8 ESV 7 For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. 8 Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

This is Part 4 of a 5 Part series on the evaluation of Reformed Theology, also referred to as Calvinism. We hope you will join us for this complete series.The tension between divine sovereignty and human free will has challenged theologians for centuries. Nowhere is this more evident than in discussions around Reformed Theology (Calvinism), where seemingly contradictory biblical passages paint a complex picture of salvation.In this deeply engaging exploration, we move beyond theoretical frameworks to examine the actual Scripture passages that form the foundation of Reformed thought. Starting with 1 Corinthians 2:14, which describes the natural person's inability to understand spiritual things, we carefully consider whether context supports applying this to salvation or if it primarily addresses spiritual discernment for believers. The profound statements of Jesus in John 6—"no one can come to me unless the Father draws him"—receive particular attention, including analysis of the Greek term for "drawing" and how it appears elsewhere in Scripture.We tackle passages that strongly suggest divine election (Acts 13:48, 2 Thessalonians 2:13) alongside numerous Old Testament texts commanding people to "seek the Lord" (Deuteronomy 4:28-29, Isaiah 55:6-7). The dramatic moment when Joshua tells the Israelites "you have chosen for yourselves the Lord" presents a particularly compelling case for human volition in spiritual matters. Throughout this journey, we discover Scripture affirming both God's sovereign choice and meaningful human response.What emerges is not a simplistic either/or proposition but a beautiful theological understanding that respects both God's sovereignty and the reality of human choice. Rather than forcing Scripture into rigid systematic frameworks, perhaps we're invited to embrace how these truths coexist. For those struggling with questions of election, predestination, and free will, this episode offers balanced biblical examination that honors the full testimony of Scripture.Support the showThank you for listening!!

Is Your Faith Yours, or Is Your Faith a Faith Derivative of the Faith of Others? MESSAGE SUMMARY: We first believed because of what our parents taught us; but then we heard for ourselves, and we believed. You and cannot live on another's faith in Jesus – With regards to faith, “God has no grandchildren”, only His Children; therefore, your Salvation comes only from your faith and not the faith of others. Each of us must hear for ourselves and come to the Lord in our own faith. As Paul tells us in Romans 10:16-17: “But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, ‘Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?'. So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." You and I each will stand before the Lord alone in judgment -- we will speak for ourselves with only Jesus to speak for us. Others to whom we minister, such as our children, can her about the Lord and the Gospel from us – for the first time or in reinforcement – but they must hear for themselves and believe for themselves to be saved. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM A CHILD OF GOD. Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His Name, He gave the right to become children of God-- children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.
