George C. Parker was an infamous con man. He sold the Brooklyn Bridge countless times. He sold Ulysses S. Grant's tomb. He sold Madison Square Garden. He sold the Metropolitan Museum of Art. He even sold the Statue of Liberty! Most often, the victims of his schemes were new immigrants who didn't speak English and were unfamiliar with America's public property laws. …but… was George C. Parker truly the prolific scammer he claimed to be? The internet sure thinks so! Normie C begs to differ.Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources!

The Vanity of Life Under the Sun Without the Son, Pt. 1Our Toils Under the SunEcclesiastes 1:1–11, 12:13 | King's Chapel Live StreamEcclesiastes begins with an honest and sobering observation about life. Apart from God, everything feels fleeting, repetitive, and unsatisfying. Solomon looks at the world under the sun and concludes that chasing meaning apart from the Lord leaves us empty.In this message, we explore why Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes and what he learned through a lifetime of wisdom, success, and reflection. He shows us that under the sun, nothing is ultimately gained, nothing is truly new, and nothing is permanently remembered. Life lived apart from God cannot deliver the meaning we are searching for.But Ecclesiastes does not end in despair. When life is viewed through the lens of the Son, everything changes. In Christ, nothing is wasted. We are made new. We are known, remembered, and deeply loved by God.This sermon invites us to consider where we are looking for meaning and reminds us that true purpose, joy, and fulfillment are found only when our lives are anchored in reverence for God and trust in Him.If you have ever felt the weight of emptiness or wondered what really matters, this message points us to the hope found not under the sun, but in the Son.Connect with King's Chapel in Longwood, FL - ▶️ www.kingschapelfl.com▶️ https://www.facebook.com/KingsChapelfl▶️ https://www.instagram.com/kingschapelfl/For the GLORY of our Great GodFor the GOOD of our NeighborEcclesiastes sermon, vanity of life, meaning of life Bible, King's Chapel Longwood FL, life under the sun, purpose in Christ, biblical wisdom teaching, Solomon Ecclesiastes, life without God sermon

Mary chats with Paul Scharf of Friends of Israel Ministry about the Pilgrims, and the heart of a pilgrim. The Bible refers to pilgrims and sojourners as those who knew they were strangers in a strange land, just passing through. Touching the world lightly. In this fast-paced culture of constant chatter and visual distraction, it has become more rare to find those Christians who truly are not conformed to this world, or at least seeking to be influenced by it less and less. And we are told to seek first the kingdom and its righteousness above all. Today we discuss Psalm 107, often referred to as the Pilgrims' Psalm - not that they see themselves in it, but their experiences were reflected in these verses. The layout is such that those who find themselves wandering, imprisoned, afflicted, or just weathering a storm will find comfort and encouragement. Those who came ashore at Plymouth Rock were directed to this Psalm by Governor William Bradford, and Christians have found similar solace in every generation. Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come; 'tis grace that's brought me safe thus far, and grace t'will lead me home.

Through Many Dangers, Toils, and Snares | Acts 21:1-16 | 22 October 2025 - Wednesday Evening | Dr. Brad Weniger, Pastor

Acts 14 14 Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed. 2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers. 3 So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands. 4 But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles. 5 When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to mistreat them and to stone them,6 they learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding country, 7 and there they continued to preach the gospel. 8 Now at Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet. He was crippled from birth and had never walked. 9 He listened to Paul speaking. And Paul, looking intently at him and seeing that he had faith to be made well, 10 said in a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And he sprang up and began walking. 11 And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, “The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!” 12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. 13 And the priest of Zeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and wanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds.14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out, 15 “Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men, of like nature with you, and we bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. 16 In past generations he allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways.17 Yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good by giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness.” 18 Even with these words they scarcely restrained the people from offering sacrifice to them. 19 But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead. 20 But when the disciples gathered about him, he rose up and entered the city, and on the next day he went on with Barnabas to Derbe. 21 When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch,22 strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. 23 And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed. 24 Then they passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia. 25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia, 26 and from there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work that they had fulfilled.27 And when they arrived and gathered the church together, they declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles. 28 And they remained no little time with the disciples.   Key Words: Preach, Word, Gospel, Believe, Faith, Turn, Mistreat, Tribulation Keystone Verse: When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.

Kris Williams, knows as KDub on a YouTube channel titled "All Things Theology," was one of the most respected and highly influential Christian influencers on social media. He was articulate, videos were excellent in presentation, and he often engaged with his audience. For all that was good with and about KDub, the Christian influencer world and many in the evangelical churches who appreciated his ministry were shocked to hear of his recent fall into sin and a sad separation from his wife and family, and his church community as well. The news came as a lightning bolt, but at the same time, is a warning sound that some things need to change within the online Christian social media community to help all of us from falling into the schemes of the evil one in the future. This episode of 2Days Denarius is devoted to two recent events. The first is an appreciation for the life and ministry of  Precept Bible International's founder and Bible teacher, Kay Arthur. Kay went home to be with the Lord around the same time as the news concerning Kris Williams was released by his church in Texas. The second portion of the podcast deals with the the "what we know" regarding Kris Williams, a call to prayer for him, and addresses concerning trends that have not promoted sound Christian behavior in the Christian influencer social media community over the last two years. This podcast comes with a heavy heart and with a call to prayer for our community to reevaluate itself and its focus, which hopefully will lead to a much greater focus on the glory of God and the spread of the good news of Jesus Christ's saving grace instead of videos and behaviors that attack others.  Song "Holy Is the Lord" is used by permission of songwriter/performer, Pastor Steve Hereford of the Changed By Grace Church in Jacksonville FL.

Songs of Resistance: Dangers, Toils & Snares. AKA, Amazing Grace. Welcome to another mini series of The Wanderer, this time focused on trying to understand and define worship. Each episode will look at the history of a particular Hymn and its origin story, how it may have roots in Justice and what it may encourage us to participate in today. Further, every episode will end with a recorded version of the song by Tim, to listen to after walking through the song's history. This week, it is what is most likely the most famous and well known song of all time: "Amazing Grace." What is the history of this song? How has it lasted so long? Why is it so popular? Tim covers some of the history, but not all. There was Newton being exiled himself, his father rescuing him. The relationship between himself and William Cowper, William Wilberforce... William Walker (so many Williams...). The Second Great Awakening, Dwight Moody... There is so much to cover. But the main piece is, what is Grace? How does it inform our lives? How does justice and resistance play in? This is the long road. Some points of reference: "John Newton: From Disgrace to Amazing Grace," by Jonathan Aitkin "Why Obama's Singing of 'Amazing Grace' is so Powerful," by Sarah L. Kaufman Tim's rendition, "Dangers, Toils & Snares," can be heard on SPOTIFY, APPLE MUSIC or any other streaming platform. As always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.
