Let's talk about an incredibly adaptable project in which students experiment with creative ideas across modes. It's easy to plug into a variety of units and times of year, and ready to tap at a moment's notice. It remixes easily for Valentine's Day on the horizon, but it could also work well at Halloween, or as part of a creative writing unit, or when you're reading any verse novel or graphic novel. This project starts with fiction, moves into verse, and lands in a multimodal combination of verse and imagery. I call it a multimodal flash verse project, informed along the way by the brilliant mode collaborations of Jason Reynolds. Let's dig into it.

Verse by verse study through the book of Acts Chapter Seven and Verse Thirty Four

Dave Myers discusses Mark 3:31-32—“Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him. And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, ‘Look, Your mother and Your brothers are outside seeking You.'”Jesus' brothers and sisters are mentioned in Matthew 13:55-56 and Mark 6:3.

In Islam, protecting family bonds is a sacred duty. Aya 35 of Surah An-Nisaa teaches us how to mend relationships before they break. With the help of family members who care, God highlights the importance of acting early to keep the family intact. Today's Tafsir could help save your marriage.

Verse by Verse Bible Study on thecloudchurch.org through the book of 1 Timothy, covering chapter 6 and verses seven to twenty-one.

In this episode, Swamiji continues his discourse on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 10, Part 2, where Shree Krishna reveals: “I am the eternal seed of all beings. I am the intelligence of the intelligent, and the prowess of the powerful, devoid of desire and attachment.” This verse highlights how God is the origin of vitality, wisdom, and strength in creation.  Swamiji explains that true strength is not rooted in ego or desire but flows from God when aligned with purity and detachment. He illustrates this with stories of great personalities:  Bhishma Pitamah, who possessed immense prowess yet remained detached, dedicating his strength to dharma.  Hanuman ji, whose extraordinary power was always offered in service to Lord Ram, showing how divine strength manifests through devotion.  Saints and sages, who demonstrate that austerity and brilliance are sustained by God's grace, not personal ambition.  Swamiji emphasizes that when strength is used selfishly, it leads to downfall, but when it is surrendered to God, it becomes a force for righteousness. Similarly, intelligence and brilliance are not self-generated—they are gifts of God, meant to be used in service of the Divine plan.  Listeners are invited to reflect on their own talents and abilities, recognizing them as manifestations of God's energy. This teaching inspires humility, gratitude, and devotion, reminding seekers that they are instruments of the Divine, empowered only by His will.  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. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from two of India's most prestigious institutions—IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.  

In this episode, Swamiji begins his discourse on Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 11, Part 1, where Shree Krishna declares: “I am the strength of the strong, free from desire and attachment. I am the sexual union that is not opposed to dharma.” This verse reveals how God manifests as pure strength and righteous vitality in creation.  Swamiji explains that true strength is not brute force or ego-driven power, but the Divine energy that sustains courage, resilience, and righteousness. He highlights that when strength is divorced from selfish desire and attachment, it becomes a sacred force aligned with dharma. This teaching distinguishes between strength used for selfish gain and strength offered in service to God and righteousness.  Through vivid narration, Swamiji illustrates how God's strength is seen in heroes and saints who dedicate their power to noble causes. He emphasizes that even the natural instinct of union, when aligned with dharma, is a manifestation of God's energy—reminding seekers that every aspect of life can be sanctified when connected to the Divine.  Listeners are invited to reflect on their own use of strength—whether physical, mental, or emotional—and to purify it by removing selfish motives. This episode inspires humility and devotion, showing that all true strength originates from God and must be directed toward righteous living.  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. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from two of India's most prestigious institutions—IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades. 

In this episode, Swamiji continues Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 11, clarifying that when Shree Krishna says, “I am the strength of the strong,” He is not referring to muscular power but to the inner courage that enables us to persevere through difficulties. This divine strength is free from desire and attachment—pure resilience that carries seekers beyond obstacles toward their goal.  Swamiji illustrates this with the astonishing journey of Helen Keller—deaf and blind from infancy—whose inner strength, guided by God's grace and the mentorship of Anne Sullivan, enabled her to learn language, study, graduate, and even deliver lectures by feeling vibrations on the throat and mouth. Her transformation—from tantrums to worldwide philanthropy and public speaking—embodies the Gita's teaching that true strength is an inner force bestowed by the Divine.  He contrasts this with modern challenges, like toddlers developing speech deformities due to early mobile addiction, and highlights the wonder of natural language acquisition—children at around three years forming rapid neural connections (extra axons creating pathways) that allow them to absorb language simply by hearing. This innate ability, too, is a glory of God, revealing how divine strength manifests as human capacity and growth.  Swamiji closes with Sri Aurobindo's insight: you must be more persistent than the difficulty—there is no other way. The path will have challenges, but those with inner strength persevere and reach the goal. This verse invites seekers to purify their strength of selfish motives and align it with dharma, recognizing that the courage to endure is itself a manifestation of God.  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. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from IIT and IIM.

In this episode, Swamiji explains Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 12, where Shree Krishna declares: “Whatever states of being are manifested by the three modes of material nature—goodness, passion, and ignorance—know that they are all created by Me. Yet, I am not under them; they are under Me.”  Swamiji clarifies that the three gunas (sattva, rajas, tamas) are the building blocks of material existence. Every thought, action, and quality in the world is a mixture of these modes, and all originate from God. However, God Himself is transcendental—He is never bound or influenced by them.  Through vivid narration, Swamiji shows how:  Sattva guna (goodness) manifests as clarity, wisdom, and harmony.  Rajo guna (passion) manifests as ambition, restlessness, and desire-driven activity.  Tamo guna (ignorance) manifests as inertia, confusion, and darkness.  He emphasizes that while these gunas shape human behavior, they are ultimately God's energies, and He remains beyond them. This teaching inspires seekers to rise above the gunas by cultivating devotion, recognizing that liberation comes not by being trapped in goodness, passion, or ignorance, but by transcending them through surrender to God.  Listeners are invited to reflect on their own tendencies, understand the interplay of the gunas in daily life, and strive to connect with the Divine who is beyond all modes.  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.

Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades. 

In this episode, Swamiji explains Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 14, where Shree Krishna declares: “This divine energy of Mine, consisting of the three modes of material nature, is difficult to overcome. But those who surrender unto Me cross beyond it.”  Swamiji narrates how Maya, God's divine energy, operates through the three gunas—sattva, rajas, and tamas—to bind the soul in illusion. He emphasizes that Maya is not ordinary; it is daivi (divine), meaning it belongs to God Himself and is therefore extremely powerful. Even the most intelligent or strong cannot escape its grip by their own effort.  He illustrates how Maya deludes people into thinking the material world is independent, making them chase temporary pleasures and forget the eternal truth of God. Swamiji explains that this is why saints, philosophers, and even great leaders often remain bound—they rely on intellect or strength, but Maya can only be transcended through surrender to God.  The key teaching is that liberation is not achieved by personal power but by bhakti (devotion). When the soul humbly surrenders, God's grace lifts it beyond Maya's influence. Swamiji inspires listeners to cultivate humility, devotion, and surrender, reminding them that only by God's mercy can one cross over this divine energy and attain freedom.  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.

In this episode, Swamiji explains Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 13, where Shree Krishna declares: “Deluded by the three modes of material nature—sattva, rajas, and tamas—the whole world does not recognize Me, who am beyond them and imperishable.”  Swamiji narrates how the three gunas—goodness, passion, and ignorance—are God's energies that govern material existence, yet they also act as a veil. Because the soul is conditioned by these gunas, it fails to perceive God's transcendence. Even sattva, though elevating, binds through attachment to knowledge and happiness; rajas binds through desire and restlessness; tamas binds through inertia and delusion.  He emphasizes that this veil is Maya, God's divine energy that bewilders the soul. Maya makes the world appear independent, hiding the truth that everything rests upon God. Swamiji explains that this is why even the most intelligent people—scientists, philosophers, leaders—often fail to recognize the Divine, being caught in the net of the gunas.  The key teaching is that liberation from Maya is only possible through bhakti (devotion). By surrendering to God, seekers rise above the gunas and perceive His imperishable nature. Swamiji inspires listeners to reflect on how the gunas operate in their own lives and to cultivate devotion as the path to transcendence.  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.

We've been having these weird thoughts lately. Like, is any of this for real, or not? One thing we're sure of, is that the Kingdom Hearts episode is finally real. John's heart was our guiding key, and he's helped us open the door to darkness. After all these year, we're ready. Kingdom Hearts, a cornerstone of our childhoods, is the perfect intersection of video games and Disney movies. It's moved the hearts of millions, and confused the minds of millions more. But don't be confused, it's time for us to talk. Don't be afraid, to open the door.

Verse by verse study through the book of Acts Chapter Seven and Verse Thirty Two

All Is Vanity | Ecclesiastes 10

Verse by verse. 

We have all made the mistake of taking a verse from Scripture out of context to make it say something that may sound good, but in the end is not truthful and relevant with the rest of Scripture. In order to really understand what the Bible says and apply it to our lives, we must read it in its entirety, keeping the verses within the context they were written.

For any of us who were alive at the time, we'll never forget those images of the World Trade Center attacks and those heroic rescue efforts that followed them. One moment still sticks with me. It hit me. It was this interview with a big guy who was helping the rescuers. He was sitting on a curb at Ground Zero, talking with a reporter from a cable news network. He told how he had been delivering food to the rescuers, and then he was making his way back through the rubble when he decided to reach into that rubble just on the chance someone might be there. Unbelievably he suddenly felt this warm hand grabbing his arm. Immediately, he went and got helpers who pulled a firefighter out of there alive! And then that's when he lost it in that interview, and he choked out these words, "He touched me first." I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Rescue - No Greater Honor." That man at Ground Zero had been part of one of the most moving experiences a human being can have - being involved in the rescue of someone who otherwise would have died. It's an experience that God intends for every one of His children to have, except the rescue isn't the physical kind that might give a person 30 or 40 more years on earth. No, it's a spiritual rescue that will give a person heaven! Wherever you live, wherever you work or go to school, wherever you shop or wherever you recreate, you've been assigned as God's rescuer in your circle of influence. Listen to the incredible position God has entrusted to you. It's described in our word for today from the Word of God in 2 Corinthians 5:19-20. "God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And He has committed to us the message of reconciliation." Translation: it's up to you whether or not the people in your personal world find out that what Jesus did on the cross was for them. Verse 20: "We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us." So you are Jesus' personal representative to the people you know. Yes, to show them Jesus by your life, what Jesus is and how real He can be in a life. But that's not enough. They can only get God's message about Jesus if you tell them about Him. And it's life-or-death information that you've got locked up inside you. You're going in for the spiritual rescue of someone whose only hope may be what you know about Jesus! Now, how do you begin your rescue work? By praying by name, faithfully, for people who don't know Christ. Pray for God to open up natural opportunities for you to explain your relationship with Jesus. Look for an opportunity to pray with them about something that's bothering them. Invest some time in being with them, doing things with them, building bridges into their life. Don't just spend all your time with people who are already going to heaven! D. L. Moody, the great evangelist once said, "There is no greater honor than to be the instrument in God's hands to lead one person out of the kingdom of darkness and into the glorious light of heaven." And may I add, there is no greater thrill. Just ask a man who has been the first to touch someone who otherwise would have died. When it's rescue - when it's life-or-death, you drop everything, you risk everything, you do whatever it takes to bring that person out. For some person you know, you are that rescuer. You are their chance!

Jim Franks discusses Revelation 1:1-2—“The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw.”

"All that time I sat alone in my tower, you were just honing your powers. Now I can see it all, see it all." This week, we're deep diving "The Fate of Ophelia" (The Life of a Showgirl, 2025). We go line by line through the lead single from Taylor's latest album, exploring everything from Hamlet references to fairy tale imagery, the contrast between "high brow" poetic language and colloquial modern speak, and why this song is actually packed with green flags about healthy relationships. Join us as we unpack the land, the sea, the sky, and discover why keeping it 100 might just be the antidote to drowning in melancholy.

We have all made the mistake of taking a verse from Scripture out of context to make it say something that may sound good, but in the end is not truthful and relevant with the rest of Scripture. In order to really understand what the Bible says and apply it to our lives, we must read it in its entirety, keeping the verses within the context they were written.

In Chapter 4, Verse 13 of the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, Shri Krishna emphasizes the importance of knowing ourselves through Divinity's classification of four personality colors. By aligning our propensity (personality) and projectivity (actions), we move toward Peace and realize the Presence beyond them, while misalignment leads to inefficiency.➡️ To maximize your experience of this season, we encourage you to request your FREE copy of the Essential Love eBook.

Erik Jones discusses Matthew 5:33-37—“Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.' But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. But let your ‘Yes' be ‘Yes,' and your ‘No,' ‘No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.”

Genesis 15 contains some of the most important promises in the entire Bible. These are God's promises to Abraham (and ultimately to us) about the establishment of a nation of descendants who would follow God and walk with Him. And while these are promises to Abraham, we see that these are promises to anyone who will call upon God in faith. Join us for the study in Genesis 15! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    According to the study, how many years have passed since the Lord first met with Abram back in Genesis 12? How would that delay have impacted your faith in God's promises? How did it impact Abram?  2.    When God reiterated His promises to Abram, what practical problem did Abram point to in verses 2 and 3? Why would this have seemed to be a problem to Abram? Why is this not a problem to God? Are there any principles we can glean from this regarding the problems we face in our lives? 3.    What was the Lord's response to Abram's concerns in verses 3 and 4? In what ways would God's solution only come about by means of a miracle? 4.    Verse 6 says Abram believed the Lord and the Lord reckoned it to Abram as righteousness. When God "reckons" a person to be righteous, what does that mean for them? Why is this reckoning by God necessary to inherit these promises and be a citizen of His kingdom?  5.    When verse 6 says Abram "believed God," how is this different than having a "faith" that is just a wispy hope? How was true faith reflected in Abram's life? Why did God declare Abraham to be righteous based on his faith and not his works? 6.    The later part of Genesis 15 records the covenant God made with Abram. What was Abram's role in this covenant? What was God's role? What is the significance of these two roles? Similarly, in our covenant with God that we have made through Christ, what is God's role, and what is ours? 7.    Genesis 15 speaks to the nation God would establish through Abram. While most modern believers in Christ are not related to Abram by blood, they are related to him by faith. Are you part of this kingdom? How does your life reflect these truths?

Isaiah 55:8-9 is a powerful passage. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath, exhale, and listen closely.“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”This is not meant to discourage us but rather to provide understanding. God always sees the big picture we cannot. We have to trust that His vantage point allows Him to choose what is best for us. Listening to Him can help us line up with His thinking.Verse 8 in The Living Bible says: “This plan of mine is not what you would work out, neither are my thoughts the same as yours!”The Message Bible gives us this take on the passage: “I don't think the way you think. The way you work isn't the way I work.”“For as the sky soars high above earth, so the way I work surpasses the way you work, and the way I think is beyond the way you think.”Think for a moment about something that is happening in your life right now…what is on your mind the most this week? What might change if you prayed, “Father, show me what You are doing. How are you at work in my life right now? Help me to trust that Your higher ways are at work in my situation right now.”All of our actions and attitudes are driven by our thoughts. What if you chose to “think beyond” what you can see today, handed your situation over to God, and surrendered your thoughts to Him?Let's pray together: “Heavenly Father, thank You that You don't think like me or work like me. In fact, if you did, You wouldn't be God. But you are. So help me to trust Your thoughts and Your ways today. As above, so below.”
