Kendra Erika, an innovative artist known for her unique fusion of jazz, dance, and EDM, is set to release her album "License to Thrill" on February 13th, reimagining iconic Bond songs with her distinctive sound. Overcoming personal obstacles, such as being born tone deaf, and growing musically under the guidance of a German operatic coach, Kendra infuses her work with resilience and a touch of the James Bond elegance. Her perspective on the album's release is centered around honoring divine vision and unfolding a journey through the decades of Bond, with carefully chosen tracks that promise further volumes.

“Lord, can You hear me?” “Are You there?” Have you ever felt like God went quiet right when you needed Him most? This week in his sermon A Thrill of Hope, Pastor Jess Strickland reminds us that when God seems hidden, He isn't absent— He arrives brightly in our darkness, continuously transforming us until old divisions dissolve. And while this transformation takes place, we're called to carry this same grace out into our world— to remove the line of division and begin seeing people through God's redemptive lens.  Even when we don't feel Him, there is a thrill of hope in knowing God is near.  Listen here!

The Free Outside Show is back for the new year, and I'm joined by our correspondent on everything, Allison Mercer. We're doing the exact opposite of the usual “five months from now” preview content that other podcasts are doing, and instead talking about what's actually happening this weekend: Bandera (with Molly Seidel), Houston Marathon for the OTQ watch, and why you should care about World Cross Country in Tallahassee (yes, it's watchable on Peacock, yes, team tactics make it way more fun than you think, and yes, there are statue alligators on the course).From there, we get into the real chaos: Burrito League expansion, why it works as an “anyone can play” running challenge, and how these community-wide games can be more accessible than the typical big-race ecosystem. Then we go full rant mode on year-end lists, award season fatigue, media bias, and why FKT stories often get misunderstood or flattened by outlets that do not actually live in that world. We also touch on sponsorship transparency, influencer economics, West Coast bias, and why the sport would be better off funding real coverage of barrier-breaking performances instead of paying for interchangeable promo codes. New year, same old us.

His name was Richard Beigenwald. Known as the "Jersey Shore Thrill Killer," Richard was a serial killer who turned brief encounters into acts of domination, terror, and death. For Richard, violence was not incidental - it was entertainment.  In this episode, we trace Richard's life and crimes, reconstruct the scenes he left behind, and examine the psychological machinery driving thrill-based serial killers - people who kill not out of rage, but out of appetite. We break down the criminology, the escalation, and the absolutely wild details of the double life Richard lived.  You see, for Richard Beigenwald, the danger wasn't getting caught - it was getting bored.  Because when boredom hit, innocent people paid with their lives...

Jesus, the Good ShepherdSunday Morning Service // Dec. 21, 2025Series: a Thrill of HopePastor Greg Shipe 

Biblical hope isn't wishful thinking or a feeling. It is a confident expectation or assurance based on a sure foundation in Jesus Christ. We are meant to live with great anticipation that something wonderful is about to happen. Let hope reinterpret your circumstances.

Steve Ferguson shares how his passion for cars started in childhood, fueled by a neighbor who gave him car magazines from around the world. Steve recalls how his love for automotive performance led him to owning a 1993 Dodge Viper, founding the Viper Club of America, and instructing others in high-performance driving across legendary racetracks in the U.S. He describes memorable experiences, like clocking 186 mph in a Viper and teaching the drummer of Smashing Pumpkins, Jimmy Chamberlin, to drive his Ferrari. Steve also talks about his enthusiasm for scuba diving, his loyalty to the Dallas Cowboys, and a lifelong love of ice cream. He discusses why sharing personal interests at work matters, saying it makes people memorable and brings excitement into professional environments. Steve encourages listeners to embrace their "And" stories, believing openness and authenticity foster better relationships and workplace culture. Episode Highlights · Steve Ferguson's love for cars, specifically his experience with the Dodge Viper, played a huge role in shaping his career, personal drive, and the founding of the Viper Club of America. · He uses personal stories and interests to stand out and be remembered in professional settings, believing that sharing your "And" helps build stronger connections. · Steve Ferguson advocates for being open about personal passions and experiences, saying that it leads to more genuine relationships. Even if some people aren't interested, those who are will remember you. · He stresses that company leadership should actively encourage employees to share personal interests, as it creates a more engaged, caring, and high-quality company culture. · High-performance driving, scuba diving, and snowmobiling are more than hobbies for Steve Ferguson. They provide adrenaline, focus, and a reprieve from his highly social work life, which he says makes him feel "freer as a person."

Biblical hope isn't wishful thinking or a feeling. It is a confident expectation or assurance based on a sure foundation in Jesus Christ. We are meant to live with great anticipation that something wonderful is about to happen. Let hope reinterpret your circumstances.

Luke 2:22-40 | Preached my Michael Aiken

The Thrill of Hope - Christmas EveDecember 24, 2025Teacher: Pastor Dave BrownJoy turns into rejoicing.Look, Charlie, let's face it. We all know that Christmas is a big commercial racket. — Lucy van Pelt In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.” Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. — Luke 2:1-20 I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. — Luke 2:10 The good news is that the one true God has now taken charge of the world…The ancient sickness that had crippled the whole world, and humans with it, has been cured at last, so that new life can rise up in its place. Life has come to life and is pouring out like a mighty river into the world, in the form of a new power, the power of love. The good news was, and is, that all this has happened in and through Jesus; that one day it will happen, completely and utterly, to all creation; and that we humans, every single one of us, whoever we are, can be caught up in that transformation here and now. — N.T. Wright Joy turns into rejoicing. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. — Luke 2:20 Feelings are great liars. If Christians worshipped only when they felt like it, there would be precious little worship. We think that if we don't feel something there can be no authenticity in doing it. But the wisdom of God says something different: that we can act ourselves into a new way of feeling much quicker than we can feel ourselves into a new way of acting. Worship is an act that develops feelings for God, not a feeling for God that is expressed in an act of worship. — Eugene Peterson

Luke 2:1-21 | Preached by Benjamin Vrbicek

Preacher: Kathy Maskell Isaiah 9:2 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light;  Luke 2:13-20 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests." 15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about." 16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

The Thrill of Hope - Week 4December 21, 2025Teacher: Pastor Dave BrownWe all long to be known and to be loved.You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they find rest in you.— St. AugustineI pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord's holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.— Ephesians 3:17-19“Wide” illustrates his accepting love.“Long” reveals his lasting love.“High” proclaims his exalting love.“Deep” displays his sacrificial love.You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they find rest in you.— St. AugustineGod wasn't hiding from us.  We were hiding from God, so God came to find us.This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”(which means “God with us”).— Matthew 1:18-23Immanuel — God with us.GodThe Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.— Luke 1:35WithUsFor I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.— Romans 8:38-39

During our healing series, we talked a LOT about faith. As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus -the incarnation- let's notice how much faith is involved in that; especially that first Christmas... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're beginning our Christmas series, The Thrill of Hope, by looking at what happens when a weary world encounters a God who restores hope. If you've ever felt tired, discouraged, or stuck in a season that hasn't changed, this message is for you. Through the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, we see that God meets us in our waiting, strengthens us in our weariness, and fills us with a hope that doesn't just comfort us-it abounds and outflanks the very things trying to defeat us. Today, Jesus invites every weary heart to come to Him and find rest, renewal, and the thrill of real, supernatural hope. At In Focus Church, love God, love people and reach the world with God's love is more than a mission statement, it is how we want to live. We want to boldly share the love of Jesus with others. We hope you will want to be a part of what God is doing in and through IFC as we continue to be a church that displays the gospel through how we love one another and the world around us, as Christ loved us first. Along with a powerful time in the Word of God, we will also be able to worship God wholeheartedly as He deserves. Whether you join us in person or online, we look forward to worshiping with you! And if you are coming on Sunday, bring someone with you! God is about to do some more miracles!

We have a warped since of what Christmas is all about these days. This week at Maplewood, we're wrapping up our series, "Hope Has a Name." Join us as we unwrap the true meaning behind the "thrill of hope."

Luke 1:57-80 | Preached by Ron Smith

December 22-28Since I was a child, on Christmas Eve, I yearned to be in that very stable in Bethlehem and see the Christ-child lying in a manger.  I wanted to be close to that glowing presence and feel the heavenly love and hear the angel chorus. It was a yearning that was soul deep, undeniable, breath-taking and heart-felt, and it seemed that somewhere, some how that event was happening again on that magic night, if I could just go to Bethlehem, and defy time and find the right place. That was the magic of it all. I could talk to the baby, the Christ-child and He would look at me with knowing, smiling eyes and heart would be satisfied. It was more compelling to me than what Santa Claus would bring me or all the lights and festivities of Christmas. I am not alone in that yearning.

Thrill and Eric discuss the Giants' signing of Adrian Houser and their potential interest in other free agents like Max Scherzer. Thrill expresses skepticism about the Giants' strategy, suggesting they may be trying to compete without breaking the bank. They also discuss the trade value of Bryce Eldridge, and how it's unlikely he would be traded unless the return is significant. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode of Conversations kicks off a Christmas series by exploring how each Gospel tells the story of Christ's arrival through a different lens. The discussion centers on redefining hope, recognizing God's provision, and anchoring our lives in Jesus rather than ourselves. A reminder that Advent isn't just something we revisit each year—it's an invitation to believe, repent, and rest in who God says we are.

Even as survivors of medieval wars, religious persecution, and a thousand-year cement coma, the Gargoyles are still not yet ready to face the perils of modern-day New York City. Their "fish out of water" story highlights many challenges they face as they encounter discrepancies between their historical origins and their new home atop a towering skyscraper. The Gargoyles, despite their collective wisdom, must now start from a "blank slate" and acclimate to an advanced society that fears their monstrous appearances. 

What's the point of Advent in a world that's already been playing Christmas music since October? Kaitlyn digs into the ancient roots of Advent, why the church calendar begins with longing instead of celebration, and how this season teaches us to live in the tension between God's promises and our present reality.
