Galatians 2: Identity, Intimacy, and the Freedom Beyond Performance In this episode of the Exploring More Podcast, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings continue their series on Galatians by diving into chapter two—where Paul boldly defends the gospel of grace and challenges efforts to impose law-driven faith on new believers. Through humor, baseball analogies, and historical insight, the hosts explore the cultural tension between Jewish and Gentile followers and how those same dynamics show up in modern faith and identity struggles. The conversation centers on the difference between living in performance-based religion versus intimacy with God. Michael and SJ reflect on Paul's confrontation with Peter, the deeper meaning of justification by faith, and the subtle ways we still try to earn what Christ has freely given. Drawing from personal stories, cultural comparisons, and even Tim Keller's commentary, this episode offers both theological depth and real-life application. The message is clear: our worth doesn't come from rituals or appearances—it comes from being known, loved, and justified in Christ. This episode also spotlights Zoweh's Base Camp, a powerful resource for men seeking spiritual growth, healing, and deeper connection with God and others. We hope you enjoy this episode and invite you to connect with us!

What if our culture's biggest crisis isn't political, but spiritual and relational? New York Times columnist, bestselling author, and Atlantic columnist David Brooks talks about how American culture has changed in our lifetime and why he thinks it's overpoliticized and undermoralized. Plus, he shares how he became a Christian, his friendship with Tim Keller, and why he writes for 5 hours to get 1200 words each day.

As seminaries face shrinking enrollments, rising costs, and shifting demographics, what models of theological education will carry the church forward? In this episode, Loren talks with Bekah Buchterkirchen, a writer, speaker, and former dean of students with nearly a decade in Christian higher education. Drawing from her experiences in seminary leadership—and as a seminary spouse—Bekah offers a thoughtful look at what's working, what's not, and what needs to change for theological education to stay relevant and form faithful leaders. Bekah also shares about her own spiritual rhythms as a mother and ministry partner, what she'd do if she were pope for a day, and why the legacy of Tim Keller continues to shape her hopes for the church. Together they explore: The shift away from traditional seminary students to older, working adults The growing presence of women in seminary—and the challenges they still face Creative cohort-based and hybrid models that foster both learning and community The need for deeper church-seminary partnerships and real-time ministry formation Stackable certificates, lay education, and the future of non-traditional theological training Why poor digital presence is a turnoff—and how seminaries can adapt     Bekah Buchterkirchen is a writer, speaker, and creative collaborator passionate about cultivating joy and faith in every season. With nearly a decade in Christian higher education and ministry alongside her pastor-husband, she seeks to create spaces where curiosity, hospitality, and the love of Jesus meet. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with their two, almost three, young kids and writes to encourage moms in the trenches of motherhood to seek the Lord daily—even when they feel like it's not enough.   Mentioned Resources:

In this episode, Pastor Joseph Spurgeon tackles the soft betrayal of evangelical leaders who have traded truth for cultural approval. From Sodom to the SBC, from rainbow buses to feminist pulpits, he unpacks why homosexuality is not simply “not God’s best for human flourishing”—it is a monstrous rebellion against God’s created order. This is not a whisper. It’s a sin that shouts for judgment. But there is also hope: “Such were some of you.” Christ can cleanse and transform even the most defiled. Men, this is your call to stand firm when others capitulate.

What can the music of John Coltrane tell us about the relationship of  art to God, and of our own work in general to God? We can all learn quite a lot from Coltrane, actually. And what we can see in his approach to his music applies not just to musicians and artists, but to us all. In this open forum, 1) Tim Keller shares two things we can learn from Coltrane, 2) John Patitucci, a jazz bassist and composer, discusses Coltrane's music, and 3) Keller and Patitucci hold a question-and-answer time with their audience. This talk was given by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 9, 2007. Series: Redeemer Open Forums. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 2:17-26.

Does God need to be a Trinity in order to love? This popular argument is one of the most emotionally compelling cases for the Trinity — but is it biblical, historical, or logically sound? In this video, I take a deep dive into the so-called “Love Argument for the Trinity.” I mention Wes Huff (  @WesHuff  ), Billy Carson, Joe Rogan, Gavin Ortlund (  @TruthUnites  ), CS Lewis, Tim Keller, Bishop Barron (  @BishopBarron  ), Richard of St Victor, Richard Swinburne, Dale Tuggy (  @khanpadawan  ), Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa, Gregory of Nazianzus, Arius of Alexandria, Eunomius, Thomas Aquinas, and more.

An Old Testament figure named Hagar identifies God as the One who sees her. As part of our cloud of witnesses, she encourages us to believe that God sees all the details of our lives including those parts we're ashamed of. More than that, as Tim Keller said, God loves us “all the way to the bottom” seeing all of our unlovable parts yet declaring “I love you anyway.” Cloud of Witnesses Cor Chmieleski Hope Community Church - Downtown Minneapolis Download Message Slides For more resources or to learn more about Hope Community Church, visit hopecc.com.

Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world—to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.”John 18:37The goodness of God is so boundless that no mind can grasp it, no tongue declare it. To know Him is to worship, for His attributes are not just mighty—they are lovely.Ulrich ZwingliThe divine attributes are not separate parts of God; they are how He is. And this God—eternal, infinite, unchanging—is the most beautiful being that ever was or could be.A.W. TozerGod's attributes are the beams of the sun of His nature. Is He wise? His wisdom draws admiration. Is He powerful? His power begets awe. Is He holy? His holiness evokes reverence. The perfection of all His attributes makes Him infinitely beautiful.Thomas WatsonKingAuthority: the power or right to give orders, make decisions, and enforce obedience.33 So Pilate entered his headquarters again and called Jesus and said to him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” 34 Jesus answered, “Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?” 35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you over to me. What have you done?” 36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.” 37 Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king. For this purpose I was born and for this purpose I have come into the world—to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth listens to my voice.” 38 Pilate said to him, “What is truth?”John 18:33-38Then Pilate took Jesus and flogged him. 2 And the soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head and arrayed him in a purple robe. 3 They came up to him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and struck him with their hands. 4 Pilate went out again and said to them, “See, I am bringing him out to you that you may know that I find no guilt in him.” 5 So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, “Behold the man!” 6 When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, “Crucify him, crucify him!” Pilate said to them, “Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no guilt in him.” 7 The Jews[a] answered him, “We have a law, and according to that law he ought to die because he has made himself the Son of God.” 8 When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid. 9 He entered his headquarters again and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. 10 So Pilate said to him, “You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?” 11 Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. John 19:1-11‘Any one might make himself king by putting himself at the head of a band of rebels whom he fell in with.'Josephus, 4 B.C.These [rebels] were the only types who would be foolish enough to claim to be the King of the Jews in the face of Roman domination.

Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?”John 19:6-10The same man who claimed to have all power tried to wash his hands of the decision (Matthew 27:24) claiming, “I didn't really want to do this.”GuzikGod's Power is UNDERestimated11 Jesus answered him, “You would have no authority over me at all unless it had been given you from above. John 19:11What happens when we understand Jesus is truly king? We find true power in: HIS VOICE37 Then Pilate said to him, “So you are a king?” Jesus answered, “You say that I am a king.

Episode Summary: This past week, the Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's law, which blocks all transgender medical treatments on those under 18, including puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgeries. This ruling is an encouraging sign; but it is also a reminder of the torrential flood of polluted messages coming from social media, shouting for the past twenty years that gender identity is fluid, different gender roles are unjust, and same-sex attraction is normal. This entire month our podcast focus is providing help to our boys to withstand the cultural pressure squeezing them into its false, destructive views about masculinity and femininity. This episode might surprise you because it argues that our rising generation of guys needs to understand God's design not just of their own masculinity—but God's design of femininity as well. For Further Prayerful Thought:What are some examples from your world that reveal the gender-blending worldview that is undermining God's design of creation differences between men and women?Which arguments for men and young men to understand God's revealed design of women make the most sense to you?What do you think of the Gospel Coalition's argument by John Piper and the late Tim Keller that egalitarianism is a flat-out denial of the teaching of God's Word, i.e. that there is no exegetical way to support egalitarianism from Scripture? To find our more about Men Helping Sons Embrace Biblical Manhood click here. For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast:(Click link and scroll down to bottom left)  

To BELIEVE in Jesus is to BE a Christian. What I mean by believe is not agreeing that the Bible is true and Jesus is who He claimed to be. What I mean by believe is that you are all in on what the Bible teaches and who and what Jesus claimed to be and do. Genuine belief begins with your intellect, but it does not stop there. Genuine belief affects your daily actions and life choices. So, to believe in Jesus is to live in a state of being as a Christian. To BE is to EXIST. You can believe certain things that do not affect your state of existence. An example of this is how I view the reality of math. I believe that math is both real and good, but my belief goes no further than my intellect. It is possible to BELIEVE in Jesus and not BE a Christian. If you are a Christian, your Christianity is more than a religion or something you believe, but who you now are. Think about what the apostle Paul wrote: And you were dead in your offenses and sins, in which you previously walked according to the course of this world.... But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our wrongdoings, made us alive together with Christ... (Eph. 2:1, 4-5). If you are a Christian, you were once dead, but now you are alive with Jesus. Because you are now alive with Jesus, Paul continued in Ephesians 2:10, For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. To go from death to life requires a change in your DNA. By the time Jesus arrived at Lazarus grave, he was dead and in his tomb for four days (John 11:17). What that means is that decomposition had already started, his body was bloated, his bodily fluids were already seeping out of the orifices of his body, his internal organs were already breaking down, and because of the breakdown of the tissues of his body there was already an overwhelming stench that was present in the tomb. When Jesus asked for the stone of the tomb to be removed, Lazarus sister, Martha, said to Jesus: Lord, by this time there will be a stench, for he has been dead for four days (v. 39). For a dead Lazarus to become a living Lazarus, his body would have to go through a complete DNA change, and that is exactly what happened when Jesus raised him from the dead when He shouted: Lazarus, come out (v. 43)! Lazarus body experienced an immediate DNA change, he then got up, and then he walked out of the tomb. Christian, you experienced spiritually what Lazarus experienced physically the day you heard the gospel of Jesus Christ and believed. This is why Paul was compelled to remind the Ephesian Christians who they were with these words: I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace (Eph. 4:1-3). So, how do you do that? Paul tells us: So then, be careful how you walk, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil (Eph. 5:1516). Okay, but what does that look like in the home? It looks like husbands loving their wives in the same what Jesus loved His church and gave Himself up for her (Eph. 5:25-33). It also looks like wives, subjecting themselves under the headship of their husbands (vv. 5:22-24). Oh... but how does one walk in a manner worthy of our calling in the way we parent our children or in the way we respond to our parents? I struggled if I should address parents and children in the reverse order than how the apostle Paul did it but decided to follow in the same order he chose. Responding to Our Parents in a Manner Worthy of Our Calling Paul addresses children by reminding us of the fifth commandment: Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be prolonged on the land which the Lord your God gives you (Exod. 20:12). For some parents, this commandment is abused; for some children, this commandment is ignored. For a lot of people in the church, I suspect that the fifth commandment is confusing. Just so you know, the first four commandments concern our relationship with God; the last six commandments concern our relationship with people. The first commandment states: You are to have no other gods before Me (Exod. 20:3). How you yield your mind, life, and heart to the first commandment will affect how your respond to idols, how you use the name of the Lord in what you say and do, and what kind of time you spend with the Lord in worship. Concerning the final six commandments, I suggest to you that how you yield your mind, life, and heart to the fifth commandment will affect how value your neighbors wife/husband, that which does not belong to you, your integrity, and what you think you need or do not need. It all begins with what kind of relationship you have with God. Show me how a young man or woman treats their mother or father, and I will show you what kind of husband or wife that person will most likely be. If you cannot honor the person who is responsible for sheltering you, providing food, clothing, and an education for you... then when it comes to the other people in your life... you probably will not be a very honorable person (unless something changes, such as a spiritual DNA change). Now, for the big question many of you may be asking: At what age does the fifth command expire? When you are eighteen? Twenty? How about when you are on your own? How about after you are married and have a family of your own? The commandment doesnt even indicate an age, but the word the apostle Paul uses is Ephesians 6:1 is children. The Greek word for children is teknon and it means exactly the way every English translation translates the word, and that is children. The point Paul is making is that if you are a child, then you have a command from God to obey, and that is to give your parents honor. Notice the order Paul address regarding the family. He begins with wives, then moves on to husbands, then children before he addresses fathers. Why? Because if you are alive today, then you are a child of someone. Not everyone is a parent, but everyone is a child. In the context of Ephesians 6:1, Paul is speaking to non-adults, and the way they are to honor their parents is by obeying them. However, this does not exempt every person who has a parent from honoring their parent(s). So there are two things going on with Ephesians 6:1-3. First, for every non-adult in the room, if you are unwilling to obey your parents, then you are not walking in a manner worthy of your calling as a Christian. Second, if you are a son or a daughter with a living parent, you are not walking in a manner worthy of your calling if you are not giving them honor. Let me help you understand what exactly is being said in these verses. Walking in a manner worthy of your calling as a Christian as a non-adult means that you honor your parent(s) by obeying them so long as what is asked of you does not violate your primary obligation to obey Christ. If a father or mother askes their Christ-following child to sin, then that child is obligated to respectfully disobey. Honoring your parents by obeying them does not mean that you must endure sexual or physical abuse, nor require you to lie, cheat, or steal because your father or mother told you to do something immoral or wrong. But when it comes to the things your parent(s) ask you do such as the rules of the house you live in, you are to honor your mother and father by obeying and respecting them. Non-adult children, listen to me. Paul states that the fifth commandment has a promise tied to it: Honor your father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise), so that it may turn out well for you, and that you may live long on the earth. Obeying your parents who want you to thrive and succeed will help protect you from the kind of friends and habits that could ruin or shorten your life. The other way it will turn out well for non-adult children who honor their parents through obedience and respect for them, is that you will most likely develop honorable and healthy character traits. So, how old until you do not have to obey all the rules of the home your parents pay for? Until you can pay rent and/or move out on your own. However, when you do move out of the home of your parent(s), to does not mean you are no longer obligated to honor your parents. So, what about those of us who are adults? The fifth command does not state obey although throughout the Bible, non-adult children are expected to be obedient. The fifth commandment is also a principle to live by. Notice what the commandment does not say. It does not say Love, admire, agree with, trust, or drop everything that you are doing for your parents. No, what the fifth commandment states is to Honor your father and mother. The relationship I had with my sons when they were toddlers was very different then, than it is today. How I relate to my 24-year-old son is very different than how I relate to my 14-year-old son. If the day comes that they should ever get married, my relationship with them will be very different than it is today. So what does it mean to honor my father and mother as an adult? I am commanded to honor them no matter where they live, how old they are, what physical condition they are in, or how they feel about me. Tim Keller provides a clear answer that honors the tone of all of scripture when it comes to our parents: Honor is a decision to treat your parents with dignity and with courtesy, and its also a decision to provide long-term loyalty to their best interests.[1] To walk in a manner worthy of my calling as a son or daughter must include seeing my father and mother as individuals created in the image of Almighty God, and that He entrusted my life into their care, and regardless of their sins and faults, I am to honor them by treating them with dignity and to do all that I am able to do to make sure that their best interests are provided for in a way that glorifies God and serves them well. Parenting Children in a Manner Worthy of Our Calling Now to the parents in the room. Paul is addressing dads, but moms are not exempt. The word that Paul uses for discipline is the Greek word, paideia and it also includes instruction, teaching, and training. The other word that is used is instruction which can also mean admonishing, warning, or even counseling. To discipline your children is to enforce boundaries and to provide instruction is to bring your child along guiding and persuading into a person of character because you love them. To be honest with you, parenting is difficult! It is especially difficult in the culture and day that we find ourselves in. To raise your child in a way that protects them from the idols of both our culture and their own hearts is hard work and if it is done poorly or in a way that is heavy on law and light on grace... or heavy on grace and light on law... the consequences can be devastating to watch and experience as a parent. The danger in striving to raise your child well with rules is to be overbearing where truth and the rules of the house leave little room to experience love and grace for your child. This is how you can provoke your children to anger... If you want to raise a resentful, frustrated, and angry child, make sure you leave little to no room for your child to experience the love that you have for him or her. Creating rules and enforcing them is easy and important, but to do that and at the same time making space and time to pay attention to your childs heart, to listen to your child, to be safe enough so that your child feels free to speak to you, to respect the way God put your child together in terms of their personality... takes time and energy. Your children do not only need you be their parent, but they need you be present in their life. However, Paul does not end with his charge to fathers not provoking their children to anger. Our responsibility as parents is to, bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. If you want to walk in a manner worthy of the calling in which you have been called, then you must bring up your child in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. What does it look like to bring up your child, and what does it involve? Check out what God instructed His people to do in order to pass on the faith of the parents to their children: Hear, Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one! And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. And you shall repeat them diligently to your sons and speak of them when you sit in your house, when you walk on the road, when you lie down, and when you get up. You shall also tie them as a sign to your hand, and they shall be as frontlets on your forehead. You shall also write them on the doorpost of your house and on your gates. (Deut. 6:48) This passage in Deuteronomy is known as the Shema, and it was recited often as a prayer. Orthodox Jews take the Shema literally in the sense that they literally tie the word of God onto their arms and their foreheads. The scribes and Pharisees in Jesus time did the same thing, what they wore on their foreheads and arms were called phylacteries, and they made sure they were big enough so that everyone could see how religious they were. Listen to what Jesus said about the scribes and Pharisees: The scribes and the Pharisees have seated themselves in the chair of Moses. Therefore, whatever they tell you, do and comply with it all, but do not do as they do; for they say things and do not do them. And they tie up heavy burdens and lay them on peoples shoulders, but they themselves are unwilling to move them with so much as their finger. And they do all their deeds to be noticed by other people; for they broaden their phylacteries and lengthen the tassels of their garments. (Matt. 23:35) Some of you grew up in homes with parents like this. The scribes and Pharisees missed the entire point of the Shema! The point is not to look and act religious, but that what you say you believe in and your relationship to God is actually who you really are. If you are really a Christian, then it should be who you really are when no one is looking, and especially in your home with those who know you better than anyone else. So, when you are walking, when you are shopping, when you are mowing the lawn, and when it comes to the culture of your home... you really are who you say you are. When it comes to the rules in your home and the time you share with your child, and how you interact with the members of your family, consider what it means to love: Love is patient, love is kind, it is not jealous; love does not brag, it is not arrogant. It does not act disgracefully, it does not seek its own benefit; it is not provoked, does not keep an account of a wrong suffered, it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; it keeps every confidence, it believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. (1 Cor. 13:47) When it comes to the culture of your home, consider what the fruits of the Spirit are in the life of a Christian: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law (Gal 5:2223). What does it look like to, bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord? It is the kind of disciple-making Jesus commanded us to be about, and it must begin in the home out of a love for God and a love for the closest neighbors you will ever have, namely the members of your own family.

Sometimes in life, our faith can feel dull or boring, like losing the ability to taste our favorite foods, but this reminds us to return to the simple, powerful truth that God saves us—past, present, and future. Worship and praise help revive our connection with God, awakening a fresh sense of joy and gratitude even in tough times. No matter what struggles we face, God is always attentive, ready to rescue and transform us, inviting us to actively experience His love and salvation every day. References: “The Bible insists on using sensory language about salvation. It calls us to taste and see that the Lord is good. Not only agree and believe.” - Tim Keller “Salvation is more than the sojourn of souls into heaven. Rather, it is holistic and includes the well-being of body, mind and soul.” - Michael Bird TRANSCRIPT

It took decades to form you into the person you are. The stories you've come to believe and the ones you tell yourself over and over. The habits and routines you've come to rely on that define virtually every morning and every night of your life. The circle that you have chosen (or that has chosen you) for influence and connection. These have shaped you.What if you began to believe good, true, and healthy stories about God and yourself? What if your routines became intentionally centered on a faithful future? What if your most important influencers were not instafamous, but people who live in your town who have been formed into the image of Christ?The sermon today is titled "The Slow Fix."

In this summer replay, Heather digs into this common sentiment, "I just want to feel good" or "I just want to feel okay" about my body. What's wrong with wanting a body you can be "proud of?" She explores how this is a struggle for many women who wrestle to feel confident about their bodies. They don't want to look like supermodels. Instead, they want to feel okay to be in the skin they're in. But what is this desire to have a body that you can feel good in or good about? Could the core of this issue be something you'd never expect? Heather digs into an unusual biblical concept, that is, boasting. Not that we want to tell other people that we are great, but instead, perhaps we want our bodies to tell our story for us. Do we want our bodies to tell everyone who sees us that we know how to take care of our bodies well? That we know the secrets to fitness or weight loss? Or, that we are just really good at making our bodies look their best? It's a concept few of us have spent a lot of time thinking about it. Heather walks through some fantastic teaching on the topic of boasting taken from Romans 3:27-31 and shows us how we can find a place to boast that is far better than the appearance or weight of our bodies. Anything you look at and say, "This is where my value is," can become an idol. Listen, be encouraged and exhorted today.

Sunday Morning Message - "Battling Idolatry: Lessons from the Golden Calf"In this Father's Day message from June 15, Pastor Kyle reflects on Exodus 32, focusing on the episode of the golden calf. He emphasizes the critical role fathers play, likening it to leadership, where rejecting passivity and leading courageously aligns with God's call. Pastor Kyle discusses the Israelites' impatience that led to idolatry, comparing it to modern forms of idolatry that divert worship from God to other aspects of life. He highlights the consequences of idol worship, the importance of prayer in seeking God's mercy, and the necessity of actively dismantling idols in one's life. The narrative showcases Moses' righteous indignation and intercession for the people, contrasting with Aaron's passivity, and ends with a call for repentance and restoration.Key Takeaways:We are all vulnerable to idolatry, especially during slow seasons or times of waiting.Idolatry often leads to further immorality and sin.Prayer is a powerful tool for intercession and experiencing God's mercy.There is an ongoing war for our worship.The only right response to idols is destruction and repentance.Discussion Questions:The sermon states, "WE'RE ALL ONE SLOW SEASON AWAY FROM MAKING A BUNCH OF BAD DECISIONS." Can you relate to this? Share a time when you were tempted to make poor choices during a period of waiting or uncertainty.How would you define idolatry in today's context? What are some common idols people struggle with in our culture?The pastor quotes Tim Keller: "An idol is anything more important to you than God, anything that absorbs your heart and imagination more than God, anything you seek to give you what only God can give." Reflect on this. Are there any areas in your life where something may be competing with God for your devotion?"IDOLATRY ANYWHERE OPENS THE DOOR TO IMMORALITY EVERYWHERE." How have you seen this play out in your own life or in society?How does Moses' intercessory prayer for the Israelites inspire you? In what ways can we cultivate a more passionate prayer life for others?The message emphasizes that "THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN AND WILL ALWAYS BE A WAR FOR OUR WORSHIP!" How can we be more intentional about directing our worship towards God in our daily lives?Practical Applications:Take time this week to prayerfully examine your heart for any potential idols. Use the "REPENT/REMOVE/RESTORE" approach mentioned in the sermon to address any issues you identify.Choose one person or situation to intercede for in prayer this week, following Moses' example of passionate intercession.Identify one area of your life where you can be more intentional about worshipping God (e.g., in your work, relationships, or leisure time).For men: Reflect on the call to "REJECT PASSIVITY AND LEAD COURAGEOUSLY." What's one way you can step up and lead with courage in your family, workplace, or community this week?

In the final week of our series, speaker Sam Stephens discusses what it looks like to live a life marked by the gospel. Drawing from a definition by pastor Tim Keller, Sam defines the gospel not as advice but as a declaration of good news—an announcement of Jesus's victory, peace, and authority as the new king. The sermon encourages listeners to embrace their role as "good heralds" who declare Christ the King's authority over all the Earth. Sam also references Paul's farewell address to the elders in Acts chapter 20, emphasizing the importance of testifying to the good news of God's grace.

In this episode Al Roxburgh and Jenny Sinclair talk with Susannah Black Roberts about the need for a new Christian humanism. Susannah is a journalist and an editor whose imagination is shaped by her life in New York City. With infectious curiosity she guides us to ask questions about what it means to be human and proposes we respond, in the growing shadow of AI, by making and doing rather than consuming. From Aristotle to Aquinas, from CS Lewis to Alasdair McIntyre and Tim Keller, Susannah's influences lead her to resist modernity's dehumanising tendencies with simple human practices that can easily be lived out, even in the big city. At the heart of her spiritual imagination is the creativity of God's relational life, present in us as we participate in creation for the common good, rooted in praise and worship as communities of blessing.Susannah Black Roberts is Senior Editor at the international magazine Plough Quarterly and an editor at Mere Orthodoxy and has written for many publications including First Things, Front Porch Republic, and The American Conservative.

We often chase what feels good on the surface, but what if the real drive comes from something far deeper? In this episode, we're diving into the source idol of approval – that intense, often subconscious, desire to be loved and respected by others above all else. This isn't just about affirmation; it's about a deep-seated longing that, if left unchecked, can quietly displace God in your heart.We'll explore how the need for approval manifests in your life, from the fear of rejection to the relentless quest to exceed expectations. You'll learn why this idol can lead to a problematic emotion like cowardice, and how it subtly accuses God of not being trustworthy or enough. Drawing on insights like Tim Keller's definition of a "counterfeit god," we'll uncover how the approval of others can become so central that life feels unbearable without it. Join us as we unmask this powerful idol and begin to understand what it means to find true freedom and identity in God's unconditional love.Topics discussed in this episode:Have you ever had a job that you absolutely hated?

In Week 2 of The Unloved, Pastor Matt leads us deeper into the storm in Jonah 1:7-16, where we see how God's love is at work even in chaos. As Jonah's disordered worship spills over into the lives of unsuspecting sailors, we see that idolatry distorts love—and only God's love can reorder it. Through a powerful comparison between Jonah and Jesus, we're reminded that Jesus is the true and better prophet, who enters the storm to save us. From the bottom of the boat to the raging sea, God's love pursues, disrupts, and ultimately transforms.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

A lot of people have an incredibly negative view of marketing and advertising. Not too long ago, I heard somebody say that advertising is the first profession: in the Garden of Eden, the serpent said, “you need that apple.” They were saying that marketing is creating need in somebody else for your profit, whether they really need it or not.  On the other hand, you could make a case that marketing is the oldest profession because of when the Bible says, “in the beginning was the Word.” God invented communication. And in many ways, at its best, that's all marketing is: communication. So let's look at  1) what marketing is, 2) what's wrong with marketing, and 3) how you can integrate the Christian faith with work in marketing, advertising, and promotion. This talk and Q&A was given by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 4, 2005. Series: Center for Faith and Work.

Summary: In this conversation, Dr. John West, author of Stockholm Syndrome Christianity, joins Michael to explore how Christian leaders are increasingly shaped by secular culture, often at the expense of biblical truth. They stress the need for self-examination within the church, especially regarding biblical inerrancy, moral compromise, and doctrinal clarity. Through critiques of figures like Francis Collins, Andy Stanley, and Tim Keller, West highlights the dangers of ambiguity and the manipulation of language in the church. He calls for bold, clear teaching and open debate to safeguard orthodoxy and resist cultural conformity. Takeaways: Engaging culture must not come at the cost of compromising biblical truth. Clarity in teaching is essential for preserving and transmitting Christian doctrine. The church must confront its internal issues—like moral compromise and doctrinal drift—before addressing societal problems. Language manipulation and ambiguity dilute the core message of Christianity. Discernment is critical in navigating cultural influences and maintaining theological integrity. Open, honest debate helps preserve orthodoxy and strengthen believers' convictions.

Cultural Christianity is bad in the Church, but really good in society. If that is true, then we need real christians in church producing culture that impacts society. We can't have fake christians and deists as our only ambassadors to the world. They will fail because they don't know Christ. They don't have the Holy Spirit within them. They don't have the Father's favor.Introduction (00:00:00 - 00:02:09)* Opening Dialogue: The hosts engage in a brief, cryptic exchange about spiritual and metaphysical questions, referencing a psychologist's inability to address good and evil without Jesus as the answer.* Podcast Welcome (00:01:05): Introduction to the Kingsplaining Podcast, self-described as the "I Told You Show," hosted by the two kings of the "Rube Empire."* Hosts introduce themselves as right-wing extremists, supernaturalists, and Christian bigots with a humorous tone.* Philosopher King: Claims 51% of the power, resides in the "Ivory Tower," and shares a satirical rumor about nicotine and caffeine producing protein.* Strong One: The "people's champ," references missing "Dusty" (a recurring figure), and emphasizes his grounded perspective.* Episode Setup: The hosts express readiness to dive into controversial topics with their signature unfiltered style.Segment 1: Marriage and Public Perception (00:02:09 - 00:08:12)* Topic: Marital disputes and public image, with a focus on French President Emmanuel Macron's alleged altercation with his spouse.* Key Points:* The hosts discuss their long marriages (15 and 19 years) and how time flies in a fulfilling relationship.* They pivot to a hypothetical marital dispute scenario, emphasizing the importance of resolving conflicts privately, especially under public scrutiny.* A controversial anecdote about Macron being “manhandled” by his “he-wife” (a derogatory reference to his spouse, Brigitte Macron) before exiting a plane, highlighting the embarrassment of public disputes.* Reference to Candace Owens' podcast, which claims Brigitte Macron is transgender, sparking a discussion about media narratives and public perception.* Comparison to Donald Trump's advice (from an interview with Elon Musk) to resolve disputes before facing the press, contrasting Macron's embarrassment with Trump's media savvy.* Themes:* Public image and political optics.* Gender roles and traditional masculinity.* Criticism of progressive narratives and media manipulation.Segment 2: Atheism and Jordan Peterson's Debate (00:08:12 - 00:29:15)* Topic: Jordan Peterson's debate with 20 atheists and his inability to defend a Christian worldview.* Key Points:* The hosts mock atheists' selective outrage against Christianity (Yahweh) while ignoring other religions like Buddhism or Islam, suggesting atheists target truth (Jesus).* Discussion of Peterson's intellectualism, labeling him a “king of gobbledygook” who relies on psychological archetypes rather than affirming Jesus as the divine truth.* Critique of Peterson's deist stance and failure to embrace Christianity fully, referencing his recent interviews and a podcast with John Rich (of Big & Rich).* The hosts argue that truth and reality are symbiotic, and atheism (like Peterson's intellectualism) abandons both by rejecting God.* Comparison to other intellectuals (e.g., Thomas Sowell, G.K. Chesterton) who critique over-educated “imbecility” and scientism (e.g., Neil deGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye).* Anecdote about Destiny (a streamer) taking his son to Auschwitz to counter Holocaust skepticism, illustrating the futility of arguing without a foundation in truth.* Themes:* Rejection of intellectualism without faith.* Defense of Christian truth as the ultimate reality.* Critique of atheism and scientism as grounded in denial.Segment 3: Cultural Shifts in Music and Media (00:21:30 - 00:24:11)* Topic: The decline of positive music and its psychological impact.* Key Points:* The Strong One shares a study claiming 99% of 1980s and 1990s music had positive lyrics (e.g., Def Leppard, Run DMC), compared to only 12% today.* Discussion of how modern music is formulaic, robotic, and degenerate, contributing to cultural decay.* Brief tangent about the hosts' music preferences (grunge, metal, country) and a humorous debate about rap as a “psyop” funded by undisclosed entities.* Themes:* Cultural degradation through media.* Nostalgia for positive cultural influences.* Suspicion of corporate agendas in entertainment.Segment 4: Toxic Masculinity and Political Alienation (01:28:10 - 01:39:19)* Topic: The Democratic Party's alienation of young men and the concept of toxic masculinity.* Key Points:* The hosts argue that Democrats have demonized masculinity, rewarding “feminine” boys and punishing natural male behavior, leading to resentment.* Critique of media and education (unionized, Democratic teachers) for promoting “toxic masculinity” narratives and undermining traditional gender roles.* Discussion of a failed Democratic campaign ad featuring “burly” men supporting Kamala Harris, mocked as inauthentic and “zesty” (a slang term for effeminate behavior).* Assertion that men have a “gaydar” (instinctual disgust toward homosexuality), backed by a cited study claiming 98% of men react negatively to same-sex displays.* Advice to Democrats: To regain male support, they must embrace America-first policies, traditional families, and stop promoting progressive ideals (e.g., abortion, transgenderism).* Themes:* Defense of traditional masculinity.* Political polarization and male disenfranchisement.* Rejection of progressive social policies.Segment 5: Entertainment as a Cultural Wake-Up Call (01:39:19 - 01:46:57)* Topic: The role of entertainment in awakening men to cultural decline.* Key Points:* The hosts pinpoint the “woke” overhaul of entertainment (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger's “Screw Your Freedoms” comment) as a turning point for men rejecting progressive narratives.* Examples include Luke Skywalker's emasculation, Rose Tico's arc in The Last Jedi, and sports controversies (e.g., NFL kneeling, pink shoes for breast cancer awareness).* Argument that men initially tolerated progressive changes to please women but rebelled when their heroes were vilified, stripping them of aspirational myths.* Connection to broader cultural hatred of masculinity and Christianity, driving men toward traditional values and faith.* Themes:* Cultural betrayal through entertainment.* Reclamation of masculine archetypes.* Spiritual awakening through cultural pushback.Segment 6: Embracing Christian Extremism and the Overton Window (01:47:00 - 01:58:08)* Topic: Rejecting compromise and embracing a radical Christian identity.* Key Points:* The Strong One declares himself a “right-wing Christian nationalist extremist,” inspired by Kanye West's song “Hail Hitler,” which he interprets as a defiant response to being labeled evil for wanting to see his children.* Critique of the Overton window as skewed toward Satan, with cultural Christianity unfairly demonized by figures like Tim Keller.* Defense of cultural Christianity outside the church as a net positive, preventing societal ills like transgenderism, abortion, and “sodomy” celebration.* Rejection of seeker-sensitive compromise, advocating for unapologetic Christian truth to shame wickedness and restore societal norms.* Examples of being demonized for rejecting COVID narratives (masks, vaccines) and public schools as “dens of Satan.”* Call to run toward Jesus without meeting the world halfway, citing Psalms 4:7-8 for peace and safety in God alone.* Themes:* Uncompromising Christian faith.* Reclamation of cultural Christianity.* Defiance against secular labels and norms.Closing (01:58:08 - 01:59:58)* Prayer (01:58:13): The Philosopher King prays for empowerment to speak truth, avoid cultural Christianity in the church, and foster a national Christian culture through the Holy Spirit.* Outro (01:59:27):* Reiteration of the podcast as the “I Told You Show” and home of the “Rube Empire,” where taxes are voluntary, and the hosts serve Jesus.* Call to action: Like, share, subscribe, buy merchandise, and support the show at Kingsplaining.com.* Sign-off: “Peace out. God bless.”Notable Quotes* “Truth and reality are symbiotic. They have to be together. You can't have truth without reality.” (00:19:15)* “I'm done trying to fit into the Overton window of right and left... I'm an extremist. Cool beans.” (00:52:17)* “I want liberty because that's what Christ died on the cross for. Freedom from sin.” (00:52:26)* “I want some of that cultural Christianity back because you wouldn't have tranny madness.” (00:54:31)* “I'm not meeting you in the middle anymore. You can look at my rear end the whole time.” (00:57:23)Themes and Tone* Core Themes: Defense of traditional masculinity, unapologetic Christian faith, rejection of progressive ideologies, and critique of cultural compromise.* Tone: Provocative, irreverent, and confrontational, with frequent use of humor, sarcasm, and derogatory language to challenge secular norms and “woke” culture.* Target Audience: Conservative Christians, particularly men, who feel alienated by modern societal shifts.Additional Notes* The podcast frequently references pop culture (e.g., Star Wars, Arnold Schwarzenegger) and political figures (e.g., Trump, Macron, Obama) to ground its arguments.* The hosts' self-described “extremism” is framed as a biblical mandate to reject compromise with a sinful world.* The show's unfiltered style is acknowledged as potentially shocking to “normies” (mainstream listeners), with Dusty (a recurring figure) cited as a moderating influence.Support the Show: Visit Kingsplaining.com to subscribe, share, or purchase merchandise.Next Episode: Tune in next week for more unfiltered commentary from the Rube Empire.

Gary Jeff in on Sunday Night! Talking with Tim Keller, Thane Rosenbaum and Greg Jones.

The letter of Romans strengthened the ancient church, brought reformation to the dark ages, has brought hope for 2000 years, and can change your life!This week Pastor Joel continues Part 2 of his message series in the book of the Bible called Romans, “Bold Faith That Wins”. This week, Joel continues to look at one of the most controversial texts in the Bible, Romans chapter 9. In verses 14-29 we see a two-fold reminder: 1) Our perception does not determine reality, particularly when it comes to justice. 2) And that the universe does not revolve around me. Remember who you are, who God is, who God makes us to be, and what could have been. This is a special four part series that will span the year of 2025.LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:• Recommended reading for this series• The Abstract of Principles, 1859; Westminster Confession, 1646; Baptist Faith and Message, 1963, 2000; Hymn “Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior”; C.S.

In his message at TGC's 2009 National Conference, Tim Keller introduces gospel ministry through the lens of 2 Timothy, highlighting the critical but often implicit task of confronting idols. Drawing from Acts 19 and Paul's example, Keller shows how gospel preaching challenges both personal and cultural idols—ranging from money and family to truth and morality—by disrupting the systems built around them. He emphasizes that only the gospel has the power to expose, confront, and ultimately destroy these idols, urging pastors and ministry leaders to apply its truth for genuine transformation.

What do Albert Einstein, the Jesus People,  and Donald Trump all have in common? According to historian and journalist Molly Worthen, they're all part of a surprising American story about the strange, magnetic force we call charisma. In this episode, Russell Moore sits down with Worthen to explore the themes of her new book, Spellbound: How Charisma Shaped American History, and why understanding charisma may be the key to understanding American religion, politics, and even ourselves.   From revival tents to campaign rallies to cable news sets, Worthen tracks five distinct types of charisma that have shaped our country's imagination—from JFK to your local megachurch pastor. Why do some people command a room without saying a word, while others say everything and still lose the crowd?   Moore and Worthen dig into the seduction and danger of charisma, its role in religious experience, and how it can drive both conversion and cults of personality. They also reflect on Worthen's own journey from atheism to faith, and why figures such as Tim Keller and J.D. Greear played unexpected roles in that story. Plus: the only time Russell Moore has ever found himself in a room full of unconscious people, all but him on the floor—and what that has to do with spiritual longing.   If you've ever wondered why we're drawn to certain voices, movements, or personalities—and how those forces shape the American soul—this conversation will leave you thinking, and maybe even unsettled.
