Microbats are tiny natural predators with a big appetite for insects, but the uniform structure of a vineyard can keep them from venturing far into the block. Matt Fowles, Owner and CEO of Fowles Wine, noticed that vineyard blocks near trees had less moth pressure than those bordered by open grassland. He shares how that observation inspired a system of vertical structures designed to give microbats echolocation points and encourage them to move deeper into the vineyard. Early trials show increased bat activity and promising potential for natural pest control in vineyards.

Moon kicks things off with the full report from the Cali Country Cruise, sailing from Long Beach to Ensenada, Mexico. The lineup included Tracy Lawrence, Gretchen Wilson, Jo Dee Messina, Chase Rice and plenty more, while Moon performed with Sullivan. There were some musical highs, some musical... let's call them learning opportunities... and the revelation that Jo Dee Messina may have discovered the ultimate cruise hack: perform before the ship leaves and then GET OFF THE BOAT.Gretchen Wilson, meanwhile, delivered one of Moon's highlights of the entire trip with a killer performance and band. Unfortunately, the actual cruise experience wasn't getting the same review. We're talking pricey Wi-Fi that barely worked, a balcony-room mix-up, limited excursion options, fake Cuban cigars, a stage built over the pool and a tiny backup pool populated by people who apparently had no interest in ever getting out.From there, this funny podcast turns into a tour of America's most overrated attractions. Four Corners gets roasted. Mount Rushmore gets called smaller than expected. Times Square takes a hit. The Las Vegas Strip lands at the top of the list. Lern also reveals she once got emotional seeing Chicago's Bean, proving once again that public art can be powerful when it looks like a gigantic piece of silver produce.A swimmer at Lake Tahoe reportedly gets attacked by an otter and requires 38 stitches, prompting Rafe to immediately begin defending the otter because apparently wildlife now has legal representation on The Rizzuto Show. Then there's a possible shark attack near the Massachusetts location associated with Jaws, followed by the deeply upsetting story of a woman waking from a dream about a mouse crawling toward her mouth... only to discover there was actually a BAT near her mouth.We also discover a Hawaiian shirt designed to confuse AI-powered surveillance cameras, which means Weird Al may have been preparing for the surveillance state this entire time.Missouri and Illinois get dragged into America's "worst vibes" rankings before the crew investigates which states hate each other the most. Missouri's answer? Kansas. Obviously. Centuries pass, civilizations rise and fall, and Missouri will apparently still find time to be annoyed by Kansas.Moon kicks things off with the glamorous realities of modern air travel after seemingly every flight on his trip decided that “on time” was more of a suggestion. A canceled connection, rerouting through Dallas, delays into Los Angeles and another delay getting back to St. Louis gave him plenty of time to catch up on movies. Unfortunately, that included The Mandalorian and Grogu, which gets a very enthusiastic C-minus review. Somewhere, a Star Wars fan just felt a disturbance in the Force.Then we discover that Americans apparently hit an energy wall around 2:48 in the afternoon, which explains basically every email you've ever received after lunch. Rafe's sleep schedule is wrecked, Lern is fighting afternoon cravings with hard-boiled eggs, and that leads to perhaps the most important culinary advice ever delivered on a funny podcast: if you've already hard-boiled the egg, you're halfway to a deviled egg.That discussion somehow turns into stale cereal confessions. Lern admits to eating old strawberry vanilla Chex after band practice while Rafe reveals that he knowingly ate stale Pops AND stale Golden Grahams. This is less a morning show and more four adults slowly admitting things that should probably stay between themselves and their pantries.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where things get appropriately ridiculous. A woman is accused of stealing and crashing an ambulance outside an Avenged Sevenfold and Good Charlotte concert. Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose gets some love. Gibson is releasing an extremely limited Billy Gibbons “Pearly Gates” Les Paul. Sean Ono Lennon welcomes his first child, making John Lennon and Yoko Ono grandparents for the first time. There's also a Matthew Perry documentary on the way, more Tulsa King, and the crew tries to understand the enormous world of people watching other people play video games.Speaking of gaming, Grand Theft Auto gets everybody talking about Twitch, streaming communities, gameplay fandoms, and the strange realization that watching someone else play a game can become an entire entertainment ecosystem. Scott even admits he made “multiple dollars” streaming, so please respect the media mogul.Hollywood keeps the nonsense rolling with Emmy gift bags, Marvel's mysterious Secret Wars casting, Hamnet, and Ridley Scott reportedly having some thoughts about Paul Mescal and Gladiator 2. That opens the floodgates because Rafe and Moon are more than happy to discuss just how much they hated that movie. Sharks in the Coliseum are put on trial. The verdict is not favorable.There's also a live-action Street Fighter movie coming with a completely unhinged cast, including Jason Momoa, 50 Cent, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, Eric André and more. Apparently somebody looked at the casting board and selected “yes.”Finally, Journey brings Steve Perry look-alike Hugo Valenti onstage during shows in Japan, causing some fans to apparently wonder whether the real Steve Perry had returned. The crew listens to the results, and that goes exactly as respectfully as longtime listeners would expect.Throw in birthdays, Terry Bradshaw, Keanu Reeves, Salma Hayek, Rafe's increasingly dangerous wordplay, and all the other nonsense that somehow qualifies as broadcasting, and you've got another funny podcast from The Rizzuto Show.Delayed flights. Deviled eggs. Stale Pops. Celebrity fails. Video games. Gladiator sharks. Fake Steve Perry.We accomplished nothing and covered everything.The Cali-Country Cruise7 most overrated US attractionsWoman attacked by otter while swimming says 'it felt like a human'Woman gets potential shark bite off Martha's Vineyard, in the town "Jaws" was filmedWhich US state has the worst vibes?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this episode, Fritz talks with Shiraz Mottiar, Team Principal and GM at Malivoir Wine Company in Ontario, Canada, about three sustainability practices any vineyard can put into place, whether or not they are pursuing certification. Shiraz shares the story of Malivoir's growth on the Beamsville Bench and his long involvement with Sustainable Winegrowing Ontario and research at Brock University's Cool Climate Enology and Viticulture Institute. Fritz and Shiraz compare certified sustainable vs organic approaches, focusing on how sustainability balances environmental care, community impact, and business viability. Listeners learn how Malivoir manages soil health through semi-permanent cover crops, alternating tillage, compost and manure, and careful mowing to reduce erosion on sloped, clay-based sites. Shiraz explains how they trial biological soil and foliar products in small blocks, leaving untreated controls and collecting data like cluster weights before adopting anything widely. Listen in to learn about the sustainability practices every vineyard can implement. In this episode, you will hear: How semi-permanent cover crops and alternating tillage cycles can build soil structure and reduce erosion. Why Shiraz shifted from organic certification to a broader sustainability framework that includes economics and community impact. How to set scouting protocols and thresholds so you are spraying pests only when you truly need to. Simple ways to trial biological products using side‑by‑side comparisons and vineyard data instead of marketing claims. Why packaging and glass reuse may be the next major frontier for vineyard and winery sustainability.

What happens when the people around you are more talented than you?Rita sits down with longtime friend and pioneering Vineyard worship leader Cindy Rethmeier for an honest conversation about comparison, insecurity, female leadership, creativity, and learning to recognize what only you can bring.Cindy shares what it was like helping forge a path for women in worship, why increasingly talented musicians once intimidated her, and the lesson that eventually changed everything: comparison is deadly.They also reflect on the early Vineyard worship movement, raising up people who eventually surpass you, the pressure to “keep up” in modern worship culture, and why the microphone was never supposed to be the goal.If you've ever wondered whether you're talented enough, gifted enough, or qualified enough to lead the people around you, this conversation is for you.00:00 Intro01:15 Welcome Cindy Rethmeier02:18 The Early Vineyard Movement06:16 How Cindy Started Leading Worship11:20 Discovering Her Calling13:03 Women in Worship Leadership17:01 Leading with Confidence & Authority19:29 Leading When Others Are More Talented20:17 Sponsor: Amazing Kids Curriculum20:47 Knowing Who You Are23:09 Has Worship Leadership Changed?25:21 Finding Your Lane27:08 Identity Beyond Ministry31:16 Confidence, Risk & Calling33:33 Comparison in Worship Ministry36:10 John Wimber's Lasting Influence39:55 Remembering Brian Doerksen44:36 Comparison Is Deadly48:16 Writing Songs Without an Agenda52:21 Songs That Still Matter56:11 Creating Every Day58:39 Escaping the Pressure to Keep Up01:02:09 Success vs. Calling01:04:09 Advice for Young Women Worship Leaders01:07:10 The Gift of Authenticity01:08:37 Legacy, Grandchildren & What Matters Most01:10:26 Final Thoughts & ClosingIf you're enjoying the show, please rate and review!Follow Rita on ALL Social Media: https://linktr.ee/ritaspringerIf you would like to support the Worship Is My Weapon podcast you can donate to Wearing Justice at https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=0f0e22b...
New fishing restrictions on Nantucket extend protections for great white sharks that began on Cape Cod Bay and the Outer Cape. Tom Moroney connects those rules to the lasting damage Jaws did to the species' reputation, and to his own past coverage of a now-defunct shark tournament on the Vineyard.
Tony opens the show by talking about being back from Delaware and his last night out there. And he also talks about the Nats losing late (again), and about UNC's win over TCU and the Ravens crushing the Commanders in the final preseason game. Michael Wilbon calls in to talk about Novak Djokovic losing in the first round at the US Open and also about a shipping company that sent his sons college stuff to Martha's Vineyard instead of California, and about an event he's doing with Steph Curry. Steve Sands calls in to talk about Scottie Scheffler winning at East Lake and taking the Tour Championship, and likely solidifying his case for Player of the Year, and Tony closes out the show by opening up the Mailbag.Songs : David Kraai “Blue Eyes” ; “Get Back To When”

This series is about what God actually says about doing relationships well. Not opinions. Not advice from someone who has it all figured out. God's Word — applied to the marriages, friendships, families, and workplaces we actually live in.Here's where we start: healthy, loving relationships don't begin by finding healthy, loving people. They begin by becoming one.That's a harder truth than most of us want to sit with. But when you look honestly at the common denominator in every strained relationship, every fracture, every falling out you've ever had — there's one person who shows up every single time. You.Not to pile on. That's true for all of us. The question is what we do with it.In Week 1 we open in Ephesians 5:1-2 and trace Paul's argument back through chapters 4 and 3 to show how the call to "walk in love" isn't a suggestion tacked onto the end of a letter. It's the logical conclusion of everything Paul has just said about who Jesus is, what He's done, and what it means to live as someone who's been deeply loved by God.Send us Fan MailSupport the show
In the Gospel story of the Vineyard, Christ takes the Church away from the servants who didn't produce fruit for God. The Church was given to us to produce fruit. The Church is more than just the building. God will demand and accounting of us when He returns. How will God see our behavior toward His children? Our hearts must produce fruit for God. We are not guaranteed our salvation. It can be taken away. The Gospel warns us to not waste another day. This is our chance by God to make good on our faith.
Who are you in the places where you feel most like yourself—and who do you become in the places where you don't?Recording from Martha's Vineyard, Mo reflects on the hydrangeas covering the island and a lesson she first learned years ago: with certain varieties, the conditions in the soil can influence the color of the blooms.That observation opens a larger conversation about environment, identity, and self-expression.We are often quick to ask, “What is wrong with me?” when we feel guarded, quiet, tense, indecisive, or disconnected. But sometimes a better question is:What are the conditions here?In this episode, Mo explores how different environments can call different parts of us forward or send them underground. Some spaces make it easier to rest, speak honestly, ask for help, be playful, take risks, or receive support. Others can leave us bracing, editing ourselves, overfunctioning, or questioning what we know.Discernment matters, and not every person or environment deserves equal access to you. The invitation is to notice.In this episode:Why your environment matters without defining all of who you areHow contrast can reveal patterns you may not notice in your everyday lifeThe difference between challenge and constrictionWhy guardedness, quiet, or hesitation may sometimes be adaptationHow to notice when you are choosing how you show up versus reacting to the conditions around youWhy changing one condition can matter even when you cannot change the entire environmentHow environmental discernment supports self-discovery, self-trust, and self-expressionReflection question:Who do I become here and what do the conditions around me make easier or harder to express?You don't have to make an immediate decision about what you notice.

Bradley Jay Fills In On NightSide with Dan Rea:It was one of those moments when the whole country seemed to hold its breath... John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, and her sister, Lauren, were missing after their plane disappeared over the waters near Martha’s Vineyard. What followed was a massive search for the wreckage, with rescuers scouring the ocean for days before the plane and its victims were found. Decades later, the story still fascinates us. Bradley talked with Capt. W. Russell Webster, incident commander for search operations in the JFK Jr. case and a 26-year veteran of the Coast Guard, and historian Theresa Mitchell Webster about that fateful event.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
One of the districts that will come from the dissolution of the Alpine School District next year will move ahead with studies of 13 schools, as the newly-formed Timpanogos District mulls potential school closures. 3 junior high schools and 10 elementary schools will be studied, with final closure decisions expected later this year. The school board voted in favor of the studies last night, but it didn't come without concerns from parents and community members. Greg and guest host Jim Bennett speak with Tyler Vigue, director of communications with the Timpanogos School District, which covers the areas of Orem, Lindon, Pleasant Grove, and Vineyard.
Our Summer Shark Special goes out with the wimpiest of whimpers with JAWS: THE REVENGE, the sorriest excuse for a sequel to the greatest summer movie of all time. Join Andy, Lobo, Amy, JT, and Jim as we follow Jaws all the way from Martha's Vineyard to the Bahamas for some mild ocean thrills and poorly conceived family drama, along with a vague psychic sub-plot remaining from an earlier screenplay draft, and a DOUBLE DOSE OF VAN PEEBLES. Watch JAWS: THE REVENGE if you insist, here: https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/jaws-the-revenge Apologies to Mario Van Peebles, whose accent was compared by Jim to the Domino's Paradise Pizza Tracker (https://youtu.be/rbs4ixSwb64?si=6KOKCpbpIdqPnrIm).

I'm a little obsessed with Widow's Bay. It's a horror-comedy series on Apple TV set on a fictional island off the coast of Massachusetts. The island isn't as famous as Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket -- for good reason. Widow's Bay is cursed by a demonic entity. The show is nominated for 19 Emmy Awards, including Best Comedy, and I talked with their Emmy nominated production designer, Steve Arnold. We discuss the careful worldbuilding needed to blend horror and comedy, real and fake history, and subtle references to Jaws, The Fog, Halloween, The Shining, Carrie, and other works by Stephen King. We also look at why some of the props on the show became viral hits, like a set of creepy fake board games. We also have an update on our 2022 episode "Monsters in the Static: Why Gen Z Is Afraid of Analog Horror." I talk with digital folklore expert Diane A. Rodgers about why the web series Backrooms became a blockbuster film that resonated with younger fans this summer.

Read OnlineMomentary and Lasting Fulfillment“Who, then, is the faithful and prudent servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household to distribute to them their food at the proper time? Blessed is that servant whom his master on his arrival finds doing so. Amen, I say to you, he will put him in charge of all his property.” Matthew 24:46–47In the verse that follows, Jesus contrasts the “faithful and prudent servant” with a “wicked servant.” The wicked servant is the one who says in his heart, “My master is long delayed.” Believing this, he acts sinfully. Convinced that his master's return is far off, the wicked servant lowers his guard, mistreats others, indulges in excess, and neglects his responsibilities. Why? Because he foolishly concludes that such a way of living is more desirable than a life of fidelity. This deceptive reasoning is rooted in a lie and ultimately leads to misery and destruction.Most people do not choose sin because they desire misery. Rather, they sin because they fail to grasp the surpassing worth and eternal reward of holiness. They mistakenly believe—often without full awareness—that sin will bring greater satisfaction. On a superficial and momentary level, that may seem to be the case. It is easier to indulge the flesh, lash out in anger, or ignore one's duties than it is to practice virtue, self-restraint, and discipline.But is that which is easier necessarily better? More pointedly, is the path of least resistance ever the road to deep and lasting fulfillment? The Gospel offers a clear answer: no. The faithful and prudent servant, who labors with diligence even during the master's absence, is the one to whom the master will entrust everything. The reward of fidelity far exceeds the fleeting comforts of sin. What appears easier often leads to ruin, while the more demanding path of virtue leads to glory.This truth is easy to affirm intellectually but much harder to live out daily. To live faithfully, diligently, and prudently requires perseverance and sacrifice. But it is always worth it—both in the present moment and in eternity. Consider the present moment: Though sin may tempt us with immediate pleasure, the peace that flows from doing God's will is far greater than any passing pleasure that sin offers. Those who embrace a life of virtue become increasingly aware of God's abiding presence and the dignity it confers. This spiritual joy far surpasses the shallow consolations of sin.As time moves forward, the contrast becomes even more striking. The one who chooses faithfulness day after day becomes like a flourishing vine, bearing fruit in abundance. As virtue matures, temptation loses its grip, and the soul becomes deeply rooted in truth. On the other hand, those who live for momentary indulgence discover that even sinful pleasures lose their appeal. The soul, unsatisfied, becomes restless—seeking ever more desperate forms of gratification.Hence, holiness offers far greater fulfillment than sin. While this may be easy to affirm in theory, it is often difficult to live out in practice. That is why it is essential to begin with firm conviction by acknowledging that the life of virtue, though demanding, brings rewards that far surpass the fleeting comforts of sin. We must let this truth take root in our minds, speak it with confidence, choose it with intention, and allow it to shape our actions gradually and faithfully. Spiritual maturity does not unfold overnight; it grows steadily, like a fruitful vine that is nourished by one faithful choice at a time.Reflect today on how this truth challenges any habits or temptations that lead you down the easier path of self-indulgence. Consider where compromise may have crept into your daily life, and resolve instead to be the faithful and prudent servant, living with integrity, even when no one is watching. This is the way of holiness and the path to peace, authentic joy, and eternal glory in the presence of your Master.My Lord and Master, the holiness to which I am called, demands vigilance, fidelity, and prudence, day and night. You continuously come to me, offering the grace I need to live according to Your will. May I be like the faithful and prudent servant, always ready to give an account of my life, and may I find joy and true satisfaction in daily obedience to You. Jesus, I trust in You.

The school year that just started is the final school year for the Alpine School District in Utah County. We spoke with the superintendent of that district last week, and he told us about some of the plans the district is working on before the split into three districts next year. Now, we're learning about a study that could result in the closure of several schools within one of those new districts: the Timpanogos District. This one covers Orem, Pleasant Grove, Lindon, and Vineyard. Ahead of a public meeting tomorrow night about the study, Holly and Greg chat with Tyler Vigue, Director of Communications for the Timpanogos School District.
We hear about the films offered September 8 to 13 at the Martha's Vineyard Film Center.
Join us for a powerful Sunday message from Pastor Marcus Mecum as he reminds us to protect what God has placed in our lives and stay faithful to His purpose.The temptation isn't always to choose something bad, it can be choosing something that looks good but pulls us away from what God has called us to do. God has given each of us a purpose, gifts, and a dream that is bigger than ourselves. When we surrender our plans to His and refuse to compromise what He has placed within us, we can live fully in the purpose He designed for our lives.

"Bloody Hello! The breath on that thing!" We watched "Jaws: The Revenge" with author Paul Downey and we had a roaring good time. This film is the final entry in the "Jaws" franchise and we honestly had a great time with it. We know, this one has a reputation for going a little off the rails - the main character is Chief Brody's wife Ellen (Lorraine Gary), she has a dubious "psychic" connection to the shark and the shark itself followed her from Martha's Vineyard to the Bahamas. If this all sounds a little cuckoo, don't worry - the movie itself is quite watchable and at times, a lot of fun. Lorraine Gary does a fine job as our new heroine but it's her chemistry with pilot Hoagie played by Michael Caine that stands out. It sort of feels like "The Golden Girls" take the Caribbean but thats what we love about it. The dings this movie got from the critics about the supernatural elements and Ellen's psychic bond with the shark can be taken with a grain of salt - we were fine with all those elements. The movie really does suffer from a rushed production and a script that can feel cobbled together. Early-80's dream boat Lance Guest, and Mario Van Peebles play Mike Brody and his colleague Jake respectively, and they create the electromagnetic device that shocks the shark and gets it to emit that much maligned roar in the climax. Yes the shark does roar and the altered ending included on the DVD and streaming versions are the biggest sins of this movie. At the end of the day we still had a fun time watching a fierce woman of a certain age find love, get her groove back in the Caribbean and protect her family from a shark all while wearing chic eyewear a modern hairdo and shoulder pads for days.

As a despairing teenager, Abraham was about to commit suicide when he heard the audible voice of God. Bihar in Northern India was known as the graveyard of missions - 90 million people fiercely resistant to the gospel. He went in obedience, and after ten years of persecution and rejection had nothing to show for it. Kidnap and murder attempts did not deter him. The second decade saw a trickle, and now several decades later it has become a flood, with numerous schools and churches planted, and thousands of lives saved. The graveyard is now a vineyard.

What if grace feels unfair because we're still trying to calculate who deserves it?In Week 8 of True Fiction: The Parables of Jesus, Pastor Kim Hoyt unpacks Jesus' Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard from Matthew 20:1–16, where some workers labor all day while others show up with only an hour left. But when payday comes, the generosity of the landowner challenges everyone's definition of what is fair.Jesus uses this story to confront something deeply human in all of us: our tendency to compare, calculate, and question grace when someone else receives what we think they haven't earned.But Kingdom grace was never about earning.It's about the goodness of the One who gives.Whether you've followed Jesus for decades or feel like you're showing up at five o'clock with nothing left to offer, there is still grace for you.Because grace isn't fair.Thank God it isn't.The Kingdom is built on something better: the extravagant, undeserved, unending goodness of the King. Scripture: Matthew 20:1–16

With everything going on right now, do you ever struggle to stay grateful? This Sunday, we're diving into a story Jesus told about a landowner, a group of workers, and a controversial payday that had everybody up in arms. Come hear why gratitude is so hard to hold onto and what Jesus has to say about it.
Sharing your faith doesn't have to feel like a formula. It starts with authentic relationships, honest stories, persistent prayer, and staying open to what God's already doing around you. This series will help you notice everyday moments as chances to love your neighbors well and let your life point them toward Jesus.Week 3 is about the two things every follower of Jesus gets to carry into every conversation: the gospel story, and your story.Most of us aren't avoiding evangelism because we don't care. We're avoiding it because we're not sure we know how. We don't think we have the right words. We don't think our testimony is dramatic enough. We're afraid of saying the wrong thing or coming across like the person with the bullhorn on the street corner.But here's the thing: Jesus' first missionary was a man who had just been freed from a legion of demons. No theological training. No ministry experience. Just a changed life and a story to tell. And Jesus sent him.You don't need a dramatic past. You don't need a seminary degree. You need to know what Jesus changed — and be willing to say it.In this message we walk through Romans 10:9-15 and dig into what it actually looks like to be an everyday evangelist.Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Send us Fan MailThe Cape Cod time capsule that is One Crazy Summer. Some of the movies shot on the Cape and Islands. The creation of the cellular telephone.Episode 256 is a bit of a throwback for the podcast as it is loaded with Cape Cod topics.We start by going back 40 years ago this week. One Crazy Summer is among the best mindlessly fun comedies of the 1980s. It wasn't a major box office or critical hit, but it did have one thing that made it special, and that was a deep connection to Cape Cod. Watching it today is like opening up an old photo album for Cape Codders who grew up during that time. We celebrate the 40th anniversary of One Crazy Summer this week.Today it can feel as though cell phone technology has been around forever. In some ways that is true, but in other ways it's still relatively new. We go way back to the beginning and trace the evolution of cellular telephone technology. From World War II to Y2K and all of the bumps and detours, we look at just how cell phones became the indispensable part of life that they are today. Cape Cod dominates this week's Top 5. We look at some of the films that were shot on Cape Cod or the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. There are a few obvious ones, and some that might surprise you. We'll go over them all, good, bad, and very bad.As always, there is a brand-new This Week In History and Time Capsule, looking at the creation of the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy.To support me and the show, become a member on Patreon.

Today we are joined by Vin Armani to discuss his new book, The Vineyard and The Vessel, and what it has to say about sovereignty, empire, tradition, production, and the structure of human society. We will examine the idea of sovereignty as a vertical relationship under a Divine Landlord, rather than a simple claim to land based on force, legal paperwork, or how long someone has occupied it. We will also discuss the difference between importing capital goods and importing endless cargo. One gives people the tools to produce. The other turns them into permanent consumers while local knowledge, skills, … Continue reading →
What if the greatest obstacle to experiencing God's grace isn't your past, but your sense of entitlement? In Matthew 20, Jesus tells the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard, revealing a powerful truth about the Kingdom of God. Salvation is never something we earn through our efforts. It is a gift freely given because of the generosity of our Heavenly Father. Whether you've followed Jesus for decades or surrendered your life to Him today, every believer stands on the same foundation of grace. In this message, Pastor Joby Martin challenges us to trade comparison for gratitude, entitlement for humility, and self-focus for worship. When we recognize that everything we have is a gift from God, we can celebrate His goodness in others and live with joyful gratitude instead of constant comparison. The Kingdom of God isn't about what you've earned. It's about what Jesus has already done.
Everything we have ultimately belongs to God, and we are called to faithfully manage what He has entrusted to us. Listen in to Pastor Jonathan Laurie's message as he explores this life-changing truth. Notes: Luke 20 1 Thessalonians 4:14 (MSG)Since Jesus died and broke loose from the grave, God will most certainly bring back to life those who died in Jesus. Good parents get involved. God created systems of authority, starting with the family. Exodus 20:12 (NKJV)"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God is giving you.” If you learn to submit to authority, things will go well for you. Because we love our children, we discipline them. “If you raise your children, you’ll get to spoil your grandchildren.If you spoil your children, you’ll get to raise your grandchildren.” 1 Timothy 5:8 (NKJV)But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Provide: pronoeōto give careful thought to, take thought for, take into consideration, have regard for,to think about beforehand in a solicitous manner, care for, provide for someone Teaching your children to honor your authority will naturally lead them to honor the Highest Authority, God Himself. The Vineyard Isn’t YoursLuke 20 Read Luke 20:1–8 (NKJV) The Scene of the CrimeLuke 20:1–8 “They knew perfectly well, and they knew perfectly well when they had rejected John’s ministry. That was the trouble with them. God never condemns men for ignorance. God’s judgments are upon men who, having the light, disobey it.” —G. Campbell Morgan You were created on purpose, and you were created for a purpose. God loves you. He is the ultimate authority. There will come a day when God asks you,“What did you do with my Son?” Read Luke 20:9–19 (NKJV) Stewards, Not OwnersLuke 20:9–19 The Son they wanted to get rid of was the same Son who would rise again from the dead. Psalm 24:1 (NKJV)The earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness,The world and those who dwell therein. Job 1:21 (NKJV)"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there.The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away;Blessed be the name of the LORD." Read Luke 20:20–26 (NKJV) Image BearersLuke 20:20–26 Luke 20:25 (NKJV)"Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." Genesis 1:27 (NKJV)So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Job 1:21 (NKJV)"Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return there.The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away;Blessed be the name of the LORD." “I didn’t thank God that it happened. In fact, I would have given anything to have Christopher back. I would have gladly taken his place. But I wasn’t given that choice. So, I simply said, ‘Lord, he is Yours. I dedicated him to You when he was a little boy, and I dedicate him back to You.’” —Greg Laurie — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.
