Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching on the book of Romans CH 1:18-19.  This will be part one of this teaching, that will discuss what is meant by God's wrath being revealed and how that can look throughout the course of our lives and history.  In addition, we will look into the difference between ungodliness and unrighteousness, examine the importance of absolute truth, look into ways that truth suppression continues today and why we as believers should always stand on the truth of God's word in order to remain free from the wrath against sin.  Social MediaMobile & TV Apps: https://subsplash.com/calvarychapelkaneohe/appProphecy Website: http://jdfarag.orgChurch Website: http://www.calvarychapelkaneohe.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/JDFaragFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JDFaragInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/JDFarag

Every season of life carries memories—some that warm our hearts, and others that weigh heavily on our souls. As we move into the holiday months, today's prayer and devotional reminds us that many of us feel a deep mixture of joy and sorrow. Vivian Bricker reminds us that no matter what season we find ourselves in, God’s blessings are still present, even if they feel difficult to see. Scripture tells us that every good and perfect gift comes from the Father (James 1:17). Apart from God, we have no good thing (Psalm 16:2). And even in the hardest seasons, God is still at work—bringing life out of what feels dead (Ezekiel 37) and working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). Vivian vulnerably shares her own struggle to see God’s goodness in a difficult season. Perhaps you can relate. Sometimes life feels like Paddington Bear’s lament: “Why do bad things always happen to me?” And yet, the truth of Ecclesiastes 3:1 brings hope—this season will not last forever. Seasons change. Hardship has an end. God’s faithfulness does not. Even when blessings feel hidden, God’s presence remains constant. Psalm 23 reminds us that He is with us in every valley and on every mountaintop. And the greatest blessing of all—His unfailing love—cannot be taken from us (Romans 8:37–39). This Thanksgiving season, may we ask God for renewed vision to see His blessings, even in small ways, and to trust His steady love through every change. Today's Bible Reading:“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” – Ecclesiastes 3:1 Takeaway Truths God’s blessings surround us even when life feels heavy. Every season of life—good or painful—has a purpose and an appointed end. God’s presence and His love remain the greatest blessings we will ever receive. Let’s Pray Dear God, help me to see Your blessings in every season. Although this present season feels heavy, allow me to see You. Your blessings are always around me, and they fill me with much joy. Despite the difficult hardships and struggles I'm facing right now, I turn my focus to You. Shield my heart from negativity and help me to see Your blessings. I know they are always around me, just as Your presence always surrounds me. Walk with me as I enter this new season and help me to remember that You are eternally with me. There is time and a place for everything, and I praise You that You are the orchestrator behind them all. In Your Son’s Name, I pray, Amen.

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" and still not seeing the growth you know God promised… this episode is for you. In today's conversation, I'm inviting you into the real tension faith-driven entrepreneurs face when the doors don't open as fast as our obedience seems to deserve. We're talking about the wrestle between divine timing and strategic stewardship, and how to know the difference. I share the deeper purpose behind God's "waiting rooms," why your anointing doesn't always equal immediate appointing, and how spiritual maturity shapes the way you lead, build, and discern your next move. If you've been praying, pushing, and showing up, but progress still feels slow, I want to give you clarity, peace, and a framework to recognize what God is doing in the background. This episode will strengthen your endurance, sharpen your discernment, and remind you that delayed growth is never wasted. God is forming something in you that strategy alone cannot produce… and when the moment of release comes, you will be ready. And if you want more daily encouragement, biblical wisdom, and business strategy for your calling, come hang out with me on Instagram: @resistandroar.

Praise is not just a worship song or a Sunday morning routine—praise is a lifestyle. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, Scripture tells us to “pray without ceasing,” and in the same way, we can cultivate a posture of continual praise. God gives abundantly, consistently, and generously. Even in difficult seasons, even in uncertainty, He remains the One who provides every good and perfect gift. Keneesha Saunders-Liddie reminds us that the greatest gift God ever gave was His Son. Christ came to earth, bore our sin, and secured our salvation—a gift precious beyond measure. But God’s generosity did not stop at the cross. He continues to sustain us daily with strength, breath, provision, relationships, and opportunities. James 1:17 emphasizes that God does not change. Unlike people who can be fickle or inconsistent, the Lord is steady and faithful. He does not give gifts only to take them back. He does not shift like shadows. His character is constant, and because of that, our praise should be constant too. Every blessing—big or small—flows from His good hand. Every moment of comfort, peace, joy, and strength is evidence of His loving provision. And even when we walk through trials, His presence and sustaining grace are gifts worth praising Him for. He is Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, and the ultimate source of all goodness. Bible Reading:“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” – James 1:17 Takeaway Truths: God is the source of every good and perfect gift. His character is unchanging, providing stability in an unstable world. Praise is a lifestyle that grows from recognizing God’s constant provision. Let’s Pray Oh Heavenly Father, You are the giver of all good and perfect gifts. You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. What a comfort that is to my weary soul. There is evil all around. There are trials and temptations that I have to go through, but You don’t tempt believers with evil. You are the One who gives perfect gifts to Your children. You lead us through temptation, and Jesus has walked the path that we now must walk. There is no temptation that Jesus hasn’t experienced and overcome while He was here on earth. Thank You for being the giver of good gifts. My soul praises and extols Your matchless name because You are Jehovah Jireh, my Provider. You give gifts to me that are wonderful, and even when I have to walk through trials, Your constant presence is there with me. You are unchanging, O God, so that I can depend on You. I will continue to praise and magnify You, O Lord. Let my praises always be on the tip of my tongue. I praise You with my body, with my finances, with my lifestyle, and with everything that You have blessed me with. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

What is God's will for humanity? Is it found in Genesis 1 and 2, or does Genesis 3 reveal something deeper? In this episode, Mike and Tim tackle "The Mystery of God's Will" by unpacking Genesis 3 and exploring how God's ideal will contrasts with the realities of a fallen world.

This week, Pastor Brandon continues our Journey Through Ephesians series with one of the most powerful chapters in Scripture — Ephesians 2. Before Christ, we were spiritually dead, slaves to the world, the enemy, and our own flesh.

This message is a reminder that salvation isn't the end — it's the beginning.

Notes Luke 19:1-10 Habakkuk 1:1-4, 2:1-4 2 Thessalonians 1:1-4, 11-12 Summary In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Robb McCoy and Eric Fistler explore the readings for the week, focusing on the Gospel of Zacchaeus, the lament of Habakkuk, and insights from 2 Thessalonians. They discuss the often misunderstood nature of Zacchaeus' actions, the powerful protest against injustice found in Habakkuk's lament, and the encouragement offered to the early church in 2 Thessalonians. The conversation emphasizes themes of justice, hospitality, community, and the importance of maintaining faith amidst societal challenges. Takeaways The podcast introduces the readings for the week, focusing on Zacchaeus, Habakkuk, and 2 Thessalonians. Zacchaeus is often misunderstood; his actions reflect a pre-existing commitment to justice rather than a conversion.

In this episode, Swamiji explores Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 7, where Shree Krishna declares His supremacy over all creation: “There is nothing higher than Me, O Arjun. Everything rests in Me as beads strung on a thread.” Listeners will discover how this verse reveals the intimate relationship between God and the universe—where the Divine is both the substratum and the sustainer of all.  Swamiji explains the profound truth that God is simultaneously with form and formless, transcending material limitations while remaining personally accessible to the devotee. Through Mahatmya Gyan (knowledge of God's glories), Sambandh Gyan (our relationship with Him), and Seva Gyan (how to serve Him), this episode guides seekers toward true realization and devotion.  Building upon our previous episodes on divine creation and eternal love, this discussion deepens your understanding of God's omnipresence and personal nature. Tune in to enrich your journey through the Gita and elevate your quest for clarity, surrender, and spiritual intimacy.  About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best-selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management.

Over 36 years ago, Kris sat in the classroom of her Bible college professor, Paul Marc Goulet, learning lessons that would profoundly shape her understanding of God, cognitive function, and the power of the stories we tell ourselves. Decades later, their paths cross again for a deeply meaningful conversation about how our God concepts—what we believe about who God is—shape every part of our faith, healing, and daily life.A pastor, author, counselor, and global leader, Paul draws from his extensive background in psychology and theology to unpack the ways distorted beliefs about God can keep us trapped in emotional pain and confusion. He introduces us to one of his most impactful teachings, “the Vat,” a concept describing how our thoughts and experiences create a mental and spiritual environment that either nurtures truth or reinforces distortion.Together, Kris and Paul explore how to reconcile our view of God with life's hardest moments—especially for those walking through betrayal and trauma. This episode invites listeners to reframe suffering, rediscover who God really is, and find freedom in knowing His love is consistent, kind, and unwavering.Key Takeaways from the Episode:Our God concept—what we subconsciously believe about God—shapes how we interpret everything in life.Distorted God concepts often stem from early experiences of authority, love, or rejection.Healing involves replacing lies about God with biblical truth and relational experiences of His character.“The Vat” illustrates how unprocessed pain can distort our perception of God, self, and others—and how renewal begins by changing what we allow into that space.Reframing the question “Why do bad things happen to good people?” opens the door to deeper faith and trust.Understanding God through Scripture (1 Corinthians 13:4–8) helps us see His true nature as love itself.True breakthrough happens when we allow God to rewrite the stories we've been telling ourselves.Connect with Paul Marc Goulet:

In this episode, Dr. Oord interacts with the new book from Greg Boyd and Scott Boren entitled God Looks Like Jesus: A Renewed Approach to Understanding God.In this accessible introduction to understanding the character of God, author Gregory A. Boyd, with M. Scott Boren, lays out the radical truth at the heart of this movement: the conviction that God looks like Jesus. In other words, in the life, ministry, and sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, we see the embodiment of God's very essence—a love that is humble, other-oriented, and self-sacrificial.

What happens when punk rock meets modern faith trends? In this episode, the hosts dive deep into the cultural and spiritual dynamics shaping contemporary Christianity. From the consumer-driven "revival" narrative—marked by increased Bible sales and app downloads—to the troubling intersections of faith and political ideologies like Christian nationalism, they explore what genuine spiritual renewal really looks like. Highlighting the concept of cruciformity, they discuss how the church's role in society should reflect Jesus' teachings of love, justice, and humility, rather than power and control. Through thoughtful conversation, they unpack the transformative power of prayer, emphasizing honesty over performance and exploring how trusting in a good and generous Father reshapes our understanding of faith. Drawing parallels to cultural icons like the Ramones, the episode also touches on how creative expressions and subcultures can challenge the status quo, much like the radical message of Jesus. Join the discussion as the hosts navigate the tension between cultural issues and the theology of the Kingdom of God. What does it mean to live out a faith rooted in service and sacrifice in a world driven by consumption and division?

Today, we gathered to reflect on what it truly means to be God's masterpiece. We began by celebrating the ways God is moving among us—through the recent Fields of Faith event, where many students made decisions for Christ, and through the baptisms happening today. These are living reminders that God is still in the business of transforming lives.We explored the idea of a masterpiece, not just in the context of art or music, but as a metaphor for our own lives. Just as a great work of art is crafted with intention, care, and purpose, so too are we—each of us uniquely shaped by God. The Apostle Paul, writing to the Ephesians, used the word “poema” to describe us: God's workmanship, His handiwork, His masterpiece. This is not a title we earn, but an identity we receive through Christ.But before we can appreciate the beauty of this truth, we must first understand the depth of our need. Paul doesn't start by telling us we're masterpieces; he begins by reminding us of our former condition—spiritually dead, trapped in sin, and under God's just wrath. This is not easy to hear, but it's essential. We were not just in need of a little help; we were utterly helpless, unable to save ourselves. Only when we grasp the seriousness of our separation from God can we begin to comprehend the magnitude of His grace.Then comes the turning point: “But God.” In His rich mercy and great love, God intervened. He made us alive with Christ, not because of anything we did, but purely by His grace. Salvation is a gift, not a reward for good behavior. Our good works do not earn us God's favor; rather, they flow out of the new life He has given us. We are saved by grace, through faith, for good works that God prepared in advance for us to do.This truth is meant to reawaken our gratitude, reignite our love for God, and ground us in our identity. Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, feeling spiritually dry, or walking closely with Jesus, the invitation is the same: receive God's grace, remember who you are in Christ, and live out your purpose as His masterpiece.Youtube Chapters[00:00] - Welcome[01:00] - Holy Land Trip Invitation[02:28] - Fields of Faith Celebration[05:29] - What Is a Masterpiece?[07:18] - Art, Identity, and Transformation[09:31] - Ephesians 2: Context and Background[12:57] - The Culture of Ephesus and Paul's Message[14:22] - You Are Not an Accident[16:06] - Why We Need to Revisit the Gospel[18:35] - The Bad News: Our Condition Before Christ[27:15] - Dead, Trapped, and in Trouble[36:38] - Understanding God's Wrath[42:35] - The Depths of Grace: Amazing Grace[47:40] - The Turning Point: But God[52:37] - Salvation by Grace Through Faith[57:09] - Living as God's Masterpiece[58:05] - Testimony: Kristina's Story[64:21] - Closing Reflections and Prayer

Have you ever wondered if God truly forgets our sins when we repent? Or questioned whether He's still working with nations as collective entities in our modern world? Ezekiel chapter 33 delivers profound answers to these timeless questions.The backdrop is dramatic – Jerusalem has fallen to Babylon, and the Jewish exiles are questioning their very survival as a people. "Our transgressions are upon us. How then can we survive?" they ask in desperation. Into this crisis, God speaks through Ezekiel with an unexpected message of hope and restoration.We unpack the remarkable principle found in verse 16: when someone genuinely repents, "none of his sins that he has committed will be remembered against him." This divine amnesia regarding forgiven sin applies both to individual salvation and national restoration. The passage powerfully refutes the notion that God has permanently rejected Israel, demonstrating instead His consistent pattern of honoring true repentance throughout Scripture.The chapter also addresses skeptics who claim "God's ways are not right" – a challenge that mirrors modern atheist arguments. Yet as we explore, these critics unwittingly borrow from the very moral framework they attempt to reject. Their inconsistency highlights a profound truth: human standards of justice are flawed, while God's are perfect.For Christians today, this passage offers practical wisdom about speaking with divine timing. Just as God controlled when Ezekiel could speak and when he must remain silent, believers should be "so attuned to the Word of God that we know when to say things and when to keep our mouths shut." The chapter marks a pivotal transition in Ezekiel's ministry from prophecies of judgment to messages of restoration.Discover with us how God works through both individuals and nations, and why His promise to remember sins no more represents the greatest hope for humanity. Subscribe now to continue exploring the profound revelations in Ezekiel that remain astonishingly relevant to our modern questions about faith, justice, and divine purpose.Support the showThank you for listening!!

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Servants & Stewards series on Joseph.Even when life unravels through betrayal, false accusation, and hardship, God's providence is at work — positioning Joseph (and us) exactly where He wants him. God is always with Joseph (and us), even in the darkest prison, and his integrity under temptation becomes the proving ground for future influence.Through Joseph's faithfulness in the small things, we learn that every trial prepared him (and us) for a greater purpose. God's hand is sovereign, His presence constant, and His plan always good.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on October 5, 2025, at 9:30am.
