Pastor Jesus Arriaga invites us to bring our weariness and heavy burdens to Christ, reminding us that true rest and peace come when we lay our worries at His feet and trust Him to guard our hearts and minds. He highlights how anxiety only weighs us down and points us toward prayerful surrender and God's unfailing care.

In a world that idolizes hustle and hides exhaustion, this sermon invites us to encounter…

Don't Be Scared. Don't Run. Just Walk. In this passionate and deeply personal message, Pastor Jamal Alexander speaks to the heart of every man and woman in the fight of their life—walking through darkness, struggling with purpose, and tempted to give up. With clarity, compassion, and conviction, he reminds us that darkness is not the end of the story—it's the beginning of creation, the stage of redemption, and the proving ground of purpose.

James Henson and Joshua Blank talk about how immigration protests, the Trump administration's push for redistricting in Texas, and the short-lived in-state tuition lawsuit have disturbed the post session lull in the Lone Star State.

The post “Come to me all who are weary and heavy burdened, and I will give you rest.” appeared first on Key Life.

Psalm 102 reminds us that God lovingly gives voice to our pain and remains our unchanging hope in adversity. Even when life feels overwhelming or anonymous, we can be honest with God, trusting His faithful presence and power to bring security, healing, and lasting peace through Christ.

Bill Latham speaks from Psalm 123 on pointing our gaze to Christ and finding rest for the weary.

Sunday, June 8, 2025 – Pastor Ryp Hankins delivers a timely message that is sure to meet you right where you are. It’s titled, “Walking Through Weariness.” Everyone will experience a period or periods of weariness in this life. It’s a guarantee of life, yet God’s promise of His faithfulness is stronger than the weariness that comes our way. The enemy is determined to wear you out, but listen to Pastor Ryp encourage you to place your trust in God and to commit to praying and worshiping your way through the times ahead. God has a plan, and His plan is to build you up and prepare you for the times ahead so that you can walk through them. Did you hear that? Everything in life eventually passes, especially the hard things. God’s plan is to strengthen you to walk through yours so that someday you may be able to help another walk through theirs. Be encouraged today as you worship and study along with us…

Send us a textThe age-old theological tension between God's sovereignty and human responsibility continues to challenge believers today. Does Reformed theology turn humans into robots? Does free will exist in a meaningful way? What does Jesus really mean when He invites the weary to come to Him?This thought-provoking episode dives deep into the heart of Reformed theology and its approach to salvation, tackling the misconceptions that often surround Calvinistic beliefs. We explore how every Protestant's understanding of salvation inevitably aligns with either Arminian or Calvinistic frameworks—whether they acknowledge these theological roots or not.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we examine what truly determines our choices. While many celebrate the notion that "God loves us so much that He gave us free will," Scripture never makes such a claim. Instead, the Bible consistently points to God's love being demonstrated through the gift of His Son. We discover how our nature—not abstract free will—determines what we choose, and why this understanding is crucial for grasping how salvation works.Through a careful examination of Matthew 11:28-30, we unpack Jesus' profound invitation: "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." This passage beautifully illustrates the harmony between divine calling and human response. Christ commands us to come while simultaneously being the one who enables that coming through the gift of a new heart.For those wrestling with questions of choice, predestination, and God's sovereignty, this episode offers biblical clarity without compromising the mystery. You'll gain a deeper appreciation for the miracle of salvation—how God sovereignly works while we genuinely and willingly respond to His grace.Join us as we discover why Christ's yoke is truly easy and His burden genuinely light—not because we have innate ability to bear it, but because He provides everything necessary for us to come and find the rest our souls desperately need.Support the show

Galatians 6:9 — Christians may grow weary of well doing. Despite being on a correct path, all Christians have experienced spiritual depression. Much of this can be attributed to a “middle period” of the Christian life; a time that comes after much growth and momentum, with the struggle to continue despite feeling routine. In this sermon on Galatians 6:9 titled “Weary in Well Doing,” Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones outlines some common pitfalls and dangers during this period. Negative voices encourage giving up, resigning to the feelings of hopelessness and artificial stimulants such as alcohol or drugs that provide no lasting hope. For Christians who feel like they are just putting one foot in front of the other, Dr. Lloyd-Jones encourages that such feelings are normal. Instead of stalling, look to the word to discover “Why am I weary? What has caused me to feel this way?” Energy for serving Christ and growing in maturity is not from feelings, but from the Savior. Acknowledge that this life is a time of preparation for what is to come, and rest in knowing the Lord will rescue and redeem in due time. Dr. Lloyd-Jones encourages the listener that the walk will have ups and downs, but they can stand in their faith and not grow weary in doing good.

Jesus invites all of us to come to Him, to take upon His yoke, and in doing so, we will receive rest. I know I am also in need of that kind of spiritual refreshment! But here is the thing... we need to surrender the yoke we are carrying, the heavier burden, for the ways of Christ. Yes, they are different, and sometimes it can be uncomfortable, but it's always easier and lighter!

In Psalm 13, David cries out, “How long, O Lord?”—a question that echoes in the hearts of many who find themselves weighed down by sorrow, pain, and unanswered prayers. This sermon explores how Psalm 13 gives voice to real anguish while also pointing us to a hope that endures. If you're facing a long trial, feeling forgotten by God, or struggling to hold on, this reflection on lament, prayer, and trust will help you find comfort not in easy answers, but in the steadfast love of the Lord. Psalm 13 (ESV)1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever?    How long will you hide your face from me?2 How long must I take counsel in my soul    and have sorrow in my heart all the day?How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God;    light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,4 lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,”    lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.5 But I have trusted in your steadfast love;    my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.6 I will sing to the Lord,    because he has dealt bountifully with me. Get a free trial of Logos at ReasonableTheology.org/Logos Support the showGET THE NEWSLETTEREach edition of the Reasonable Theology newsletter contains my latest article or podcast episode PLUS: A Theological Word or Phrase Explained Quickly and Clearly A Painting Depicting a Scene from Scripture or Church History Audio of a Hymn or other Musical Selection to Enjoy A Recommended Book or Resource to Expand Your Library SUBSCRIBE HERE

Wisdom For The Weary   #Nightlight #RTTBROS Wisdom For The Weary   #Nightlight #RTTBROS Above All Else: The Focus That Changed Wilberforce If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in gloryWilliam Wilberforce stood at the window of his London home, staring across the Thames with weary eyes. For twenty years, he had fought to abolish the slave trade in the British Empire, and for twenty years, he had failed. Stacks of parliamentary papers cluttered his desk, and letters from both supporters and fierce opponents filled his drawers. His health was deteriorating, and doubts clouded his mind.Throughout his life, Wilberforce was deeply influenced by Scripture broadly. His 1797 book "A Practical View of Christianity" revealed his theological foundations, while his journal entries and letters demonstrated how biblical principles regarding human dignity and justice guided his political career. He was especially moved by passages about loving one's neighbor, caring for the oppressed, and the equality of all people before God.As a young, ambitious politician with wealth and social connections, he had experienced a profound spiritual conversion at age 25. His old friend, former slave-ship captain John Newton, now a minister and author of "Amazing Grace", had counseled him not to abandon politics but to use his position for God's purposes.Though he never specifically cited it, the powerful truth in Colossians 3 perfectly summarizes Wilberforce's transformed focus in life. While his peers pursued political power, wealth, and status, he set his mind on higher things, the dignity of every human being created in God's image. This heavenly focus made him willing to endure earthly scorn.Year after year, he introduced anti-slavery bills. Year after year, they were defeated. His political opponents mocked him as a religious fanatic. Business interests slandered him as an economic saboteur. Even some friends suggested he choose a more achievable cause."Perhaps I should focus elsewhere," Wilberforce confided to his journal one night. "Twenty years of failure wears on a man's soul."Many times when he opened his Bible. Those words renewed his resolve. His focus wasn't meant to be on immediate results but on faithfulness to his calling. He wasn't working primarily for earthly approval but for heavenly purposes.With refreshed determination, Wilberforce continued the fight. His heavenly focus gave him earthly perseverance. In 1807, the Slave Trade Act finally passed, abolishing the slave trade throughout the British Empire. Twenty-six years later, just three days before his death in 1833, he received news that slavery itself would be abolished across the British colonies.Wilberforce's life embodies the wisdom of Paul's words in Colossians. By setting his mind on things above, he changed things on earth. By living as though his true life was hidden with Christ, he found courage to face opposition. By focusing on heavenly glory rather than earthly acclaim, he left a legacy that transformed millions of lives.Like Wilberforce, we face choices daily about where to set our minds. When we focus on things above, we gain the perspective and perseverance to fulfill our calling below.Prayer: Lord, like Wilberforce, help me fix my focus on heavenly values rather than earthly validation. Remind me that my true identity is hidden with Christ, giving me courage to pursue Your purposes even when progress seems slow. May my heavenly focus produce earthly faithfulness. Amen.#WilberforceWisdom #PerseverantFocus #HeavenlyPerspectiveBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Travelers are facing increasing chaos in the skies this summer, with two planes clipping wings mid-air over Chicago and a major blackout at Newark Liberty International Airport leading to power outages and air traffic controllers walking off the job. Meanwhile, in celebrity news, rapper The Game has been ordered to sell his $4 million mansion to pay off a sexual assault lawsuit stemming from a 2016 judgment. The rumor mill is spinning with talk of Don Lemon and Wendy Williams possibly teaming up for a new show—an unexpected duo that could make waves. And in classic Kanye fashion, Ye stormed out of a Piers Morgan interview after the host misstated his Twitter follower count, citing 32 million instead of the exact 33.3 million.

Welcome to another episode of Restoring the Soul with Michael John Cusick. In this conversation, Michael is joined once again by Chuck DeGroat—pastor, therapist, and author—for an honest and hope-filled exploration of what it means to truly heal from the inside out. Together, they discuss Chuck's latest book, Healing What's Within: Coming Home to Yourself and to God When You're Wounded, Weary, and Wandering.Diving deep into the heart of spiritual and emotional disconnection, the episode unpacks the journey of finding our way “home”—to our true selves and to God—especially when life's wounds and weariness leave us lost or cut off from real care and love. Michael and Chuck reflect on their own experiences of brokenness and restoration, exploring practical wisdom from therapy, Christian spirituality, and neuroscience.You'll hear how our bodies, behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and relationships all tell the deeper story of our lives, often pointing us to places within that need kindness and attention. Michael and Chuck also reframe some of the most familiar questions in Scripture—not as interrogations fueled by shame, but as invitations from a compassionate God who pursues us with curiosity and love.Support the showENGAGE THE RESTORING THE SOUL PODCAST:- Follow us on YouTube - Tweet us at @michaeljcusick and @PodcastRTS- Like us on Facebook- Follow us on Instagram & Twitter- Follow Michael on Twitter- Email us at info@restoringthesoul.com Thanks for listening!
