James 1:2-4 (NASB) 2 Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. Theme: We as Christians can take joy in our trials because we know that God is using them to grow us to spiritual maturity. Three Encouragements to help us deal with life's trials: 1) Put on the Right Attitude in our Trials (1:2) 2) Have Accurate Knowledge about our Trials (1:3) 3) Understand the Intended Outcome of our Trials (1:4)

What if the key to resilience wasn't about avoiding suffering—but learning to embrace it with grit, faith, and silence?In this episode of Decidedly, we sit down with Father Stephen J. Gadberry – Catholic priest, Air Force veteran, and ultra-endurance athlete – to uncover how tragedy, discipline, and devotion shaped his approach to decision-making and leadership. From losing his father and sister in a car accident at age eight, to serving in the military, to leading thousands in his parish, Father Stephen reveals how resilience is forged in silence and tested in service.We dive deep into the role of suffering in spiritual growth, the power of identity before mission, and why leaders must learn to “know where their mess is.” This conversation isn't about perfection – it's about the freedom that comes from honesty, faith, and radical perseverance. If you've ever wrestled with pain, purpose, or what it means to lead with integrity, this episode will shift how you see your own journey.KEY TOPICSHow childhood tragedy forged resilience and gritWhy silence is essential for strong decision-makingThe dangers of radical independence, and how to ask for helpVulnerability in leadership: why showing your mess frees othersFaith, perseverance, and the gift of sufferingIdentity before mission: why who you are comes before what you doHow to discern between God's will and personal preferenceWhy men are hungry for authentic guidance, and what leaders must do about itLessons from endurance racing, the military, and the priesthoodCHAPTERS00:00 Introduction03:15 Father Stephen's Childhood Tragedy and Early Faith07:45 How Grit Became the Theme of His Life10:30 Resilience, Independence, and Asking for Help14:20 Discernment: God's Will vs. Personal Preference18:00 Vulnerability and Leadership in the Church21:15 Why Men Are Craving Authentic Guidance25:00 Identity Before Mission: The Foundation of Leadership28:15 Making Hard Decisions and Setting Boundaries32:00 The Role of Coachability in Growth and Faith35:40 Training for the Leadville 100 and Lessons from Endurance Sports40:00 Competing on American Ninja Warrior to Preach the Gospel43:15 Wrestling with Psychedelics, Spirituality, and Discernment47:00 Father Stephen's Top Tip for Decision-Making: Silence#FaithAndResilience #DecisionMaking #CatholicPodcast #FatherStephen #GritAndGrace #LeadershipThroughFaith #ResilientLiving #SpiritualGrowth #IdentityBeforeMission #VulnerabilityInLeadership #DecidedlyPodcast #TrueFaith #PowerOfSilence #HealingThroughFaith #CatholicLeadershipCONNECT WITH USwww.decidedlypodcast.com Join us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/decidedlypodcast Join us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/decidedlypodcast Shawn's Instagram: www.instagram.com/shawn_d_smith Sanger's Instagram: www.instagram.com/sangersmith MAKING A FINANCIAL DECISION?At Decidedly Wealth Management, we focus on decision-making as the foundational element of success, in our effort to empower families to purposefully apply their wealth to fulfill their values and build a thriving legacy.LEARN MOREwww.decidedlywealth.com SUBSCRIBE TO OUR WEEKLY DECISION-MAKING TIP EMAILJoin us every Wednesday for more strategies to DEFEAT bad decision-making - one episode at a time!CONNECT WITH FATHER STEPHENInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fatherstephenjgadberry/?hl=en Father Stephen Gadberry, a native of the Arkansas Delta, is a Catholic priest for the Diocese of Little Rock, ordained in 2016.

There is a great controversy raging within Christianity in our day. The question is: what relationship does faith have with righteousness? Of course, our concern is not with the technicalities of the debate. Our concern is whether people are being deceived into thinking that saving faith has nothing to do with the way they live their life. This is Ep. 06 of our series, "Resisting the Rise of Lawlessness."   Resources we mentioned: At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry (Book) By Steve Gallagher The Walk of Repentance (Bible Study) By Steve Gallagher

Pastor Michael McGowan John 11:38-44 Lord's Day 7

Psalm 50 begins with the LORD summoning His people before Him for a trial. He does not keep silence, but calls out so that His people will listen to Him. He acknowledges that they have made sacrifices continually, but they have done so without faith, as if God needed something from them. Instead, God calls His people to offer their sacrifices with thanksgiving, to keep their vows to Him with faith, and to pray to Him in their time of need. To those who ignore His Word entirely, God speaks with rebuke for their repentance before the day of judgment comes. To the one who hears His call in faith, the LORD promises to show His salvation.  Rev. Luke Zimmerman, pastor at Calvary Evangelical Lutheran Church in Mechanicsburg, PA, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 50.  To learn more about Calvary Lutheran, visit calvarymechanicsburg.org. Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to David Freeman from Palm Coast, FL. Thank you for your partnership with us through Project23. You're helping people everywhere live with authentic faith. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 10:23-31: And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” Peter began to say to him, “See, we have left everything and followed you.” Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”— Mark 10:23-31 Jesus speaks a sobering fact: “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God.” Not because riches are wrong. But because riches are deceptive. Wealth, comfort, and success—all can offer an illusion. An illusion of control, security, and self-made power. But these are shadows, not substance. And many of us, even those without great wealth, fall for the same illusions. We often cling to: Titles for identity. Relationships for validation. Savings for security. Performance for peace. And yet, when these things are threatened, we freak out, because what we thought was firm was faulty, what was solid was shifting sand. And Jesus wants to set us free from this illusion. Not to take away our joy, but to free us from the illusion so we can experience the freedom of greater joy. Then Peter exclaims as he beats his chest, “We've left everything for you!” And Jesus reassures his statement, even though he knows his own words will test him. Peter has not left everything because a rooster is yet to crow. He was still clinging to his ideas about Jesus and his security, safety, and significance, which is why Jesus explained again, "The first will be last. And the last will be first." Stop clinging to things that pretend to be saviors. Your status, your stuff, your success—none of them can save you; only Jesus can. Let go of the illusions, and grab hold of what's real. True security is never found in what you secure, but in the One who saves and secures your salvation. #LetGoAndTrust, #FaithOverComfort, #Project23 ASK THIS: What illusion of control are you tempted to believe? Why do comfort and success often feel more trustworthy than faith? Where is God asking you to trust Him more deeply today? What's something you need to release so you can follow Jesus more fully? DO THIS: Identify one illusion you're tempted to trust—then name it in prayer and replace it with faith in Jesus. PRAY THIS: Lord, open my eyes to the things I rely on instead of you. Help me let go of what's false so I can live by true faith. Amen. PLAY THIS: “More Than Anything” by Natalie Grant.

Send us a textWhat does it mean to discover the pearl of great price? And how is grace often misunderstood in our spiritually perilous times?Grace is divine inspiration to the heart. When we're knocked down by life's challenges or our own mistakes, grace lifts us up and redirects us toward truth embodied in Jesus Christ. In today's message, we explore how God's pursuit of us through grace works in our lives, often making us feel as though we've discovered Him when He has been pursuing us all along.Two powerful parables from Matthew 13 reveal how those who truly find God's kingdom respond – they don't simply add Jesus to their collection of treasures but recognize Him as the pearl of great price worth selling everything else for. This stands in stark contrast to those who pervert grace into permission for continued sinfulness, treating Jesus merely as a Savior who rescues without requiring lordship.The scene at Calvary provides perhaps the most vivid picture of genuine grace in action. Two criminals hung beside Jesus – one demanding salvation on his terms, the other humbly repenting and acknowledging Christ's authority. Only one heard those beautiful words: "Today you will be with me in paradise." As spiritual deception accelerates in our technological age, with AI creating increasingly convincing counterfeits of trusted voices, the need for biblical discernment grows ever more critical. Don't merely be a follower; be a disciple grounded in God's Word. The King is coming – will He find faith on the earth when He returns?Support the show

2 Cor 1:8

The New Testament is clear, the way in which we approach Christian growth is by recognizing that we plant and we sow, but it is God alone that gives the increase. How might we grow in the faith and grow in the Christian life? Listen as Sinclair Ferguson helps us answer that question by restating it. How, by God's grace, may we place our lives in God's hands that He may give the increase that He has promised to give us through His word?

In this powerful episode, content creator and author April Ajoy shares her journey from being a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist to becoming a progressive Christian voice calling out religious extremism. Raised in a family of traveling evangelists, April grew up believing America was a Christian nation blessed by God—until personal tragedy, political disillusionment, and her brother's coming out shattered that worldview.She opens up about her time working at the 700 Club, the pain of deconstructing toxic theology, and how humor became her tool for resistance. April's story offers a deeply personal window into how faith can evolve without being abandoned—and why standing up to Christian nationalism is both necessary and hopeful.

Pastor Allen delves into the intricate relationship between faith and works, addressing the perceived contradiction between the teachings of James and Paul. By exploring the different contexts each apostle was addressing, Pastor Allen clarifies how both teachings complement rather than oppose each other.

You think we'd go digging through the vault and NOT re-release this episode?! Think again and thank us later ;)For this episode, we're joined by April Ajoy, the author of Star-Spangled Jesus: Leaving Christian Nationalism and Finding a True Faith. We chat with her about her book and her journey of breaking free from Christian Nationalism. We also talk about the threat it poses to our country and our political system.April is also a content creator and podcast host who uses humor to shine light on harmful, toxic, and sometimes just weird traits of American Evangelicalism. After growing up an evangelist's kid entrenched in Christian Nationalism and working in conservative Christian media, she saw the harm caused firsthand. Still a Christian, she uses her platform to expose the dangers of Christian Nationalism while promoting a more inclusive faith. April has been featured on Buzzfeed, CNN, Newsweek and more.

Welcome to the School of Ministry podcast, where this (remastered) episode challenges listeners to examine the authenticity of their faith. Focusing on James 1:22-27, the discussion encourages believers to be genuine doers of the word rather than mere hearers. Explore compelling illustrations from the parable of the wise and foolish virgins and the teachings of Jesus to understand the difference between outward religiosity and true faith. The episode stresses the importance of inner transformation, highlighting that genuine faith manifests through loving actions and a changed life in Jesus Christ. Listeners are urged to assess their spiritual lives critically, ensuring their religion is not just external but rooted in heartfelt obedience and compassion, as demonstrated by caring for those in need. Through this profound exploration, learn how pure religion aligns with godly love and true service to others, and is only available through the saving grace of Jesus Christ.

In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind—and the ripple effect reveals much more than a miracle. This week's message explores how belief often begins with simple understanding, but always comes at a cost. As crowds doubt, leaders resist, and fear silences, one man boldly chooses to believe—and worship. What's keeping you from fully seeing Jesus for who He is?

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Kirstyn Rempel of 2911 Church challenges us to examine who we're imitating—Christ or the culture around us. From the natural instinct we have to mirror others to the spiritual call to reflect our Creator, she unpacks the biblical foundation of imitation and the transformative power of speaking in faith. With humor, conviction, and practical wisdom, Pastor Kirstyn reminds us that our words shape our world—and that true faith isn't about demanding outcomes, but declaring God's truth and trusting His will. It's time to speak life, stand firm, and imitate Christ, not culture.00:00 - Intro: Imitators by Design 02:30 - The Power of Imitation in Children & Adults 05:55 - Who Are You Reflecting? 08:10 - What “Speaking in Faith” Is—and Isn't 11:45 - Name It, Claim It vs. True Faith 15:00 - The Story of the 12 Spies 18:00 - Caleb & Joshua: Faith in Action 21:10 - Anchoring Yourself in God's Word 24:45 - Declaring God's Character in Chaos 28:00 - Submission to God's Will 31:15 - How to Start Speaking Life 33:45 - Practical Verses to Declare 36:30 - Closing Challenge: Speak Faith, Not Fear----------Follow 2911 Church on Social Media:FACEBOOK: https://facebook.com/2911churchINSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/2911churchWEBSITE: https://www.2911church.com/GIVING: https://2911church.churchcenter.com/giving----------Subscribe to 2911 Church's Podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6SiLmBl5TcTGD63CTNwU4f?si=98186b325cf94ee6Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/29-11-church/id1456498714

In this episode, Tony Brewer exposes the trap of viral religion and spiritual busyness—a form of Christianity that looks active but lacks obedience. From clickbait memes to emotional manipulation masked as faith, Tony lays bare how today's digital expressions can simulate faithfulness while actually undermining it.He challenges listeners to examine the difference between genuine obedience and superficial gestures, reminding us that true service to God is rooted in scripture, not feelings. Tony also shares updates on collaborative work with Aaron, ideas for promoting his Locals community, and the broader challenge of redirecting people from performative Christianity to purposeful discipleship.This conversation is both convicting and equipping—calling believers to return to the Word, return to the work, and follow the Shepherd who still leads His sheep.

In recent years, it's become harder to tell whether fashion can still stand on its own, without leaning on the scaffolding of sport, film, or whatever cultural tentpole happens to be in rotation. But with the sustained relevance of System and the sharp ambition behind its latest expansion, Editor-in-Chief Jonathan Wingfield offers a clear answer: yes—fashion can still trade on itself. It is a business, unquestionably—but a beautifully complex one, in constant dialogue with culture. And in that dialogue, the currency of creativity proves more stable than gold. Unlike so many aspects of contemporary life, its role is inimitable, its value evergreen. In this conversation, Wingfield traces his own route—from suburban teenage boredom and record sleeves to the visual literacy that would come to define his work. We talk about System's origins, the logic behind System Collections, and what gets lost when coverage is dictated by algorithms rather than curiosity. “The most interesting commentary on a film often came from the costume designer, not the star. That logic applies to fashion too.” - Jonathan Wingfield Episode Highlights: From suburban boredom to fashion curiosity - Wingfield traces his creative awakening to the disconnect between small-town life and the cultural energy of nearby London—music, record sleeves, and magazines were his early portals. The record sleeve as first editorial influence - A Peter Saville–designed cover for New Order's True Faith becomes an entry point into the world of typography, photography, and image-making. A formative mentorship on the road - A months-long carpool with UK publishing legend Alan Lewis becomes a crash course in magazine craft—headline writing, storytelling, and editorial voice. Why editing is about the final decisions - For Wingfield, the joy of putting a magazine together isn't in the interviews—it's in the final details: captions, pull quotes, and headlines that shape meaning. System's founding as a response to access fatigue - Frustrated by increasingly hollow interviews with celebrities, Wingfield wanted a space for deeper, more sustained conversations—System was his answer. Virgil Abloh as a cultural inflection point - A cover story featuring Virgil becomes a turning point for System, bridging industry credibility and outsider influence, and reframing who the magazine is for. The slow reveal: System's relationship to time - Wingfield shares why the magazine resists real-time commentary and favors longer arcs—interviewing designers after the noise has died down. The launch of System Collections - He introduces System's newest project: a seasonal, time-capsule-style publication that offers deep visual and editorial takes on fashion month. On interviewing well—and waiting for silence - One of his top tips: don't rush to fill silences. Real answers often follow the pause. What's contemporary now? Swerve the algorithm - Wingfield's closing reflection: avoid being trapped in feedback loops. Discovery, intuition, and counterintuitive creativity are what truly move culture forward.

Welcome to the School of Ministry podcast, where today's lesson dives deep into the Epistle of James, focusing on chapter 1, verses 19 to 21. We examine how James presents a series of tests for living faith, elaborating on how genuine faith is measured by our responses to trials, temptations, and the Word of God. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their Christian walk as they explore the transformative power of the Word of God, which brings about new birth and then the spiritual empowerment helping us live for Christ. The episode emphasizes the importance of being swift to hear and slow to speak and wrath, revealing one's spiritual maturity and eagerness to grow in the Christian faith.

Today, we're joined by Trevor Dunbar, an author, speaker, and mentor who is challenging the religious systems that have hijacked the power and purpose of true faith. His books, The Good Cult and The Law of Ability, dive deep into what it means to walk in God-given identity, live outside institutional constraints, and reclaim the authority we were created for. A husband, father of five, and founder of The Outlier Brand, Trevor is passionate about helping truth seekers hear God's voice and step boldly into their purpose."This episode is going to challenge the way you think about faith, identity, and power.From Trevor: https://trevordunbar.comThis is my personal website, where listeners can take The Outlier Challenge: 7 Days to Breakthrough by Reclaiming Your Identity and Power.
