Podcasts about week one

Cameo introduced us to the concept of "liminal space"—the threshold between what was and what is next. Whether it's a career change, a health crisis, or the "Already, but Not Yet" of the Christian life, these in-between seasons are often uncomfortable. However, Lent reminds us that the wilderness is not a place of punishment, but a "workshop of character." Through the stories of Moses, Elijah, and Jesus, we see that God uses the quiet and pressure of the wilderness to establish our identity as his beloved children, calm our fears with his presence, and nourish us for the spiritual battles ahead. Rather than rushing to Easter, we are invited to sit honestly in our hunger and grief, allowing God to meet us in the gentle whisper of the wilderness.Support the show

Jesus performed countless miracles—each one revealing the heart of God and inviting people to believe in him. These signs weren't just displays of extraordinary power; they were glimpses of God's character and invitations to deeper faith through seemingly ordinary things, in people's everyday lives. As we explore these wonders, we'll discover how Jesus is still at work today, moving in our real lives, through everyday miracles. Tune in to week one of our Everyday Miracles series as Pastor Skyler touches on Jesus turning water into wine.

We're often taught that church health equals attendance numbers. But God designed each person as a unique "masterpiece" with a specific calling in their everyday life. We should learn to see our regular world—work, neighborhood, family—as our real mission field, not just Sunday morning programs. It's about getting off the bench and into the game God already designed for you. Connect with us further at storyperu.com

What does it actually mean to say “the gospel prevails”?In this message from Ephesians, we look at how the grace of God breaks through spiritual darkness, cultural confusion, personal struggle, and the weight people carry every day. The gospel is not self-help, image management, or pretending everything is fine. It is the transforming work of Jesus that brings light into places that feel stuck, heavy, or hopeless.This sermon walks through what it means to live as people of light in a world searching for answers in everything from self-made truth to spiritual substitutes. Instead of pointing inward, the gospel calls us to receive grace, walk in love, and live differently because of what Christ has already done.If you are wrestling with anxiety, fear, addiction, doubt, or simply wondering whether real change is possible, this message speaks directly to the reality of darkness while reminding us that light always prevails.

Under Pressure: Week One - Trials Psalm 66:8-12, James 1:2-18 Pastor Christopher Ek Listen this week as we begin our new sermon series: Under Pressure. The book of James opens with a surprising invitation, "Consider it pure joy when you face trials." This Sunday we talk honestly about pressure, perseverance, and how God forms wisdom and maturity in the very places we'd rather avoid. www.bethanycovenant.com 

This message focuses on the foundation of it all—love. Drawing from Galatians 5, Jesus' words in John, and Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians, we're reminded that spiritual fruit isn't something we strive to produce, but something that grows naturally when we remain in Christ. This sermon invites us to understand the depth of God's love for us, receive that love fully, and choose to let it shape how we live and love others. Because when we fall in love with Jesus, love becomes the defining mark of our lives.

This is Week 1 of a month long series called Awakening to Beauty where we open ourselves to the beauty of life and begin to develop a relationship with wonder, awe, and gratitude.    Let's Connect:  Website: leilastrong.com Instagram: @leilastronggatherings Email: leilastronggatherings@gmail.com

Hope After Church Hurt | Pastor Jeremy Isaacs | Week One by Generations Church

The Gospel of Mark opens with urgency because Jesus is not announcing a distant hope, but a present reality. His first message is clear: “The time has come. The kingdom of God has come near.” Before any miracle, teaching, or confrontation, Jesus declares that God's reign is breaking into the world right now. The Kingdom is not something we wait for after death—it is something we are invited to step into today. When Jesus calls His first disciples, He doesn't ask them to prepare or delay; He calls them to respond immediately. Mark confronts us with a simple question: if the Kingdom is truly at hand, what are we still waiting for?

John 20:31John 1:1-141. WHO IS JESUS? John 1:1-5John calls Jesus "the Word." In Greek, that's Logos.Now, if you were a Greco/Roman listener hearing this, your ears would perk up. Logos was a big deal in Greek philosophy—it meant the rational principle that ordered the universe, the divine reason behind everything.If you were a Jewish listener, you'd think of how God SPOKE creation into existence. "And God SAID, 'Let there be light.'" The Word of God was God's creative, powerful self-expression.John takes both ideas and says, "That Logos? That Word? He's not an 'it.' He's a 'He.' And His name is Jesus."So who is Jesus according to these first five verses?Eternal ("In the beginning was")"In the beginning WAS the Word."Not "in the beginning, the Word came into being." Not "in the beginning, the Word was created."WAS. Already existing. Already there.You know how when you show up late to a party and everyone's already having a good time? Jesus showed up to creation and said, "Oh, this? I was here before the party started. Actually, I planned the party. I AM the party."Jesus is the eternal Word who has always existed, but He entered time so you could enter eternity.Divine ("was God")"The Word was WITH God, and the Word WAS God."This is one of the clearest statements of the deity of Christ in all of Scripture. John is saying two things simultaneously:The Word was WITH God (distinction—two persons)The Word WAS God (unity—one essence)This is the Trinity in seed form. One God, existing eternally in three persons. Father, Son, and Spirit.Now, I know the Trinity can feel like theological gymnastics. Three in one? How does that work? And honestly, if you fully understood it, it probably wouldn't be God. The finite can't fully John Lennox: Consciousness, Energy cant be defined but you believe in them?Creative ("all things were made through Him")"All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made."John is emphatic here. ALL things. Not some things. Not most things. EVERYTHING that exists was made through Jesus.The mountains? Jesus. The oceans? Jesus. Giraffes? Jesus. (And honestly, giraffes alone prove God has a sense of humor. "Let's make a horse... but give it a six-foot neck and a purple tongue." Divine creativity right there.)The Word who spoke creation into existence became part of creation to save it.The same voice that said "Let there be light" would one day say "Lazarus, come forth." The same hands that flung stars into space would be nailed to a Roman cross.Life-giving ("in Him was life")"In him was life, and the life was the light of men."This is important: Jesus doesn't just HAVE life. He IS life. Life isn't something He possesses; it's something He IS.And that life brings light. In a world full of darkness—moral darkness, spiritual darkness, the darkness of not knowing why you're here or where you're going—Jesus shows up as light."The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."I love that. The darkness TRIED. It's been trying since Genesis 3. And it's still trying today. But it hasn't won. It CAN'T win. Because light always defeats darkness. Always.You don't walk into a dark room and watch the darkness push the light out. You flip the switch, and darkness flees. That's what Jesus does.So who is Jesus? He's eternal, divine, creative, and life-giving. He's not a good teacher. He's not a moral example. He's GOD in the flesh.2. WHAT DID JESUS DO? (vv. 6-14)John 1:12-13Jesus doesn't just offer forgiveness (though He does). He doesn't just offer a ticket to heaven (though that's included). He offers FAMILY.Jesus didn't come to give you religion. He came to make you family.You cant earn your way in to God's family, you recive your way in.You don't become a child of God by birth, bloodline, or willpower. You become a child of God by believing.You receive. You believe. And God does the rest.

Welcome back! Today we're stepping into Week Four of your SMART fitness journey... the wrap‑up, the checkpoint, the moment where we pause and look at everything you've built over the last three weeks. If you've been here since Week One, you've shown courage, consistency, and a whole lot of heart and if you're joining us now, you're right on time because today is all about reflection, momentum, and setting yourself up for what comes next. Let's dive in!Let's take a moment to look at how far you've come.Week OneYou set your SMART goal.You showed up.You proved to yourself that you could start even if it wasn't perfect, even if it felt messy.Week TwoYou strengthened your streak.You learned how to stay accountable without shame.You discovered that consistency isn't about intensity, it's about returning.Week ThreeYou upgraded your identity.You moved with intention.You completed four days of movement and proved that you're becoming the kind of person who honors their body on purpose.That's not small.That's not accidental.That's growth. And now, in Week Four, we're taking everything you've learned and turning it into momentum.Week Four isn't about pushing harder. It's about integration. This is the week where you ask:What habits are stickingWhat habits need adjustingWhat habits feel goodWhat habits feel forcedWhat habits are becoming part of who I amWeek Four is your chance to refine, not restart. You're not going back to zero. You're building on a foundation you've already created.Here's your official Week Four Listener Challenge. “The Momentum Checkpoint”Over the next 7 days, complete this simple three‑part reflection:1. What worked? Think about the last three weeks.What habits felt natural?What actions made you feel proud?What routines actually fit your life?2. What needs adjusting?Not judging, adjusting.Maybe your workouts were too long.Maybe your schedule needs flexibility.Maybe you need more rest days.Maybe you need more variety.Adjusting is a sign of wisdom, not weakness.3. What's one habit you want to carry into next month?Just one. Not five. Not ten.One habit that feels meaningful, doable, and aligned with who you're becoming.This challenge helps you transition from “I'm trying” to “This is part of my life now.”Let's talk about long‑term accountability, the kind that lasts beyond January.Here are a few ways to stay grounded:1. Keep your goals flexible. Life changes. Schedules shift.Your goals should move with you, not against you.2. Use identity‑based languageInstead of “I'm trying to work out,”say “I'm someone who moves my body.”Instead of “I'm trying to drink more water,”say “I'm someone who stays hydrated.”Identity fuels consistency.3. Build community. Share your wins. Share your struggles. Invite someone into your journey.Accountability grows stronger when it's shared.4. Celebrate the small stuff. Every walk. Every stretch. Every mindful moment.Every return after a setback.Small wins build big momentumTake a deep breath with me.Think about the version of yourself who started this journey.Now think about the version of yourself today.What's different?What's stronger?What's softer?What's more aware? Now ask yourself:What do I want the next 30 days to feel likeWhat kind of energy do I want to carry forwardWhat's one promise I can make to myself that feels kind and realisticHold onto those answers.They're your roadmap for the next chapter.Week Four isn't the end, it's the checkpoint. It's the moment where you recognize your growth, honor your effort, and choose your next step with intention.You've built consistency.You've built confidence. You've built identity.And now, you're ready for whatever comes next.If this Monday Morning Brew series has helped you, share it with someone who's starting their own journey and as always be kind to one another and be the change you want to see in the world!Stay tuned for next week, because we'll share some of our own tips and tricks that we use to stay consistent and accountable throughout the week and we'll talk about the importance of fueling properly before and after our workouts!

Morning routines often collapse because they are too complex and unrealistic. This episode explains how leaders can build simple, flexible morning routines that survive real life and improve focus, clarity, and consistency.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI

In this series we'll rediscover what it truly means to live as people who have been trusted by God. Beginning with the proper theology of stewardship, we'll explore how God calls us to faithfully manage every area of life, showing us that stewardship is not about managing things, but about becoming faithful people.

Welcome back! Hope you are all having a great start to your Day, grabbing your marinated bean water or tea and I have to say I'm so thankful you choose to listen to us and I hope that we help kickoff your Day in a positive and focused way! Well today we're stepping into Week Three of your SMART fitness journey. If you've made it this far, take a second and acknowledge that. Most people fall off after Week One. But not You! You're still here. You're still showing up. That matters. Week Three is where your habits start to take shape. It's where your brain begins to recognize, “Oh… we're doing this now.” But it's also where boredom, doubt, or life's distractions can creep in. So today, we're talking about how to upgrade your consistency, keep your momentum alive, and stay connected to your “why.”SEGMENT 1: WHAT MAKES WEEK THREE UNIQUEWeek Three is a turning point. Not because you're suddenly doing harder workouts, but because you're building identity.In Week One, you were trying something new. In Week Two, you were proving you could stick with it. But in Week Three? You're becoming the kind of person who moves their body on purpose.This is where fitness shifts from a task… to a lifestyle. But here's the catch: Week Three is also when the novelty wears off. You might feel:A little boredA little tiredA little tempted to skipOr even a little unsure if you're making progressAll of that is normal. It doesn't mean you're failing whatsoever, it means you're transitioning.This week is about leaning into the routine, not running from it.SEGMENT 2: RECONNECTING WITH YOUR “WHY”I'd love to pause and reconnect with something important... your “why.”Why did you start this journey?What were you hoping to feel?What were you hoping to change?What were you hoping to prove to yourself? Your “why” is your anchor.It's the thing that keeps you going when motivation fades. Take a moment and bring that reason back to the front of your mind. That's what's going to carry you through Week Three.SEGMENT 3: THE WEEK THREE CHALLENGE — “THE CONSISTENCY UPGRADE”Alright, here's your official Week Three Listener Challenge. “4‑Day Consistency Upgrade”. For the next 7 days, your goal is simple: Complete 4 days of intentional movement, any style, any length. Not perfection. Not intensity. Just four days where you choose to move your body on purpose.Movement options include:A 20‑minute walkA 10‑minute strength routineA stretching or mobility sessionA dance breakA yoga flowA beginner cardio videoA bike rideA swimA hikeEven cleaning or yard work if it gets your heart rate up The goal is intentional movement, not performance.You may be wondering Why this works:It strengthens your habit loop, It builds confidence, It keeps your goals flexible, It reduces the “start over Monday” cycle, It helps you feel proud of your consistency. Four days. That's it.You can absolutely do this.SEGMENT 4: ACCOUNTABILITY BOOSTERS FOR WEEK THREE:Let's talk about how to stay accountable this week as always without shame, without pressure.1. Use a simple tracking system A calendar. A notes app. A whiteboard. A sticky note on your fridge. Whatever works for you! Seeing your progress keeps your brain engaged.2. Celebrate the small winsDid you move for 10 minutes? That counts.Did you stretch instead of skipping entirely? That counts too. Small wins stack up.3. Pair your movement with something enjoyableA favorite playlist.A podcast episode.A walk with a friend.A show you only watch while on the treadmill. Pleasure makes habits stick.4. Don't let one missed day turn into a missed weekIf you skip a day, don't spiral.Just pick up where you left off.Consistency is built on returning, not perfection.SEGMENT 5: QUICK GUIDED REFLECTIONTake a breath with me.Think about the version of yourself you're becoming.The one who moves with intention. The one who honors their body. The one who shows up even when it's not exciting. Now ask yourself:What's one small action I can take today to support that version of me?How do I want to feel at the end of this week?What would make me proud seven days from now?Think on these, I'd even suggest writing down and holding onto those answers.They're your compass for Week Three.Week Three is where consistency becomes identity.Where effort becomes routine.Where small steps start to feel natural.You don't need to be perfect.You don't need to be intense.You just need to keep showing up, four days this week, with intention and compassion.Well that's a wrap! If this episode helped you, share it with someone who's on their own fitness journey.As always, thank you for taking time out of your Day to join us! Remember to be kind to yourself and to be kind to each-other, be helpful, be useful and tell your loved ones how much you love them, call that friend who crossed your mind randomly and just say hi! Pay it forward... buy that person behind you in the drive-thru a coffee, just spread love and kindness whenever you can and above all, be the change you want to see in the world!See you next time! And get ready! Week Four is the wrap up episode for this "SMART goals series" to kick off the New Years. February is where we start talking about momentum, confidence, and long‑term sustainability. This is Luis & Ashlee and you've been listening to the Monday Morning Brew! See you next time.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/fittalk-with-coach-luis--3261827/support.TEAM LTP:My IG: @livetoprogressVoice-over credits

Welcome to Week One of our new sermon series, “The Mission,” where we explore God's heart and His redemptive purpose for the world. In this opening message titled “The Father's Love,” Pastor Chris Zauner challenges us to consider the foundational truth behind all of God's activity: His love for a broken world.Preaching from John 3:16–21, Pastor Chris unpacks one of the most well-known verses in Scripture—not as a religious cliché, but as the very heartbeat of the gospel and the starting point of God's mission on earth. This is more than a verse on a sign at a sporting event. It's a divine declaration: God so loved the world that He gave.In a world fractured by anxiety, division, and despair, many are left wondering if anyone truly cares. This message reminds us that God does—deeply. His mission doesn't begin with judgment, distance, or indifference. It begins with love. A love so vast it reaches rebellious, weary, and resistant people. A love so powerful it gave His only Son. A love so inclusive that it invites whoever believes to experience eternal life.This sermon dives deep into:The scope of the Father's love—it reaches the entire world, not just the religious or righteous.The action of that love—He gave His Son, not advice, rules, or condemnation.The invitation of that love—it is open to all, regardless of background, behavior, or brokenness.The urgency of that love—it rescues from perishing and leads to true life.The promise of that love—eternal life begins now, not just someday in heaven.Pastor Chris reminds us that mission is not about pressure; it's about participation. It's not something the church invented—it's what flows from the very nature of God. Before God ever sent the church into the world, He came Himself. Before He commands us to go, He invites us to come. This message is a clear call to return to the foundation: We go on mission because God first loved.Whether you're feeling far from God or simply needing to be reminded of the purpose behind your faith, The Father's Love will re-center your heart on the motivation behind all mission: the unwavering, initiating, sacrificial love of the Father.

In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson break down the first full week of the 2026 Iowa legislative session, with a sharp focus on property taxes, government spending, and the tone being set by legislative leadership. After years of debate, property taxes are unmistakably front and center—across party lines—marking what could be a pivotal session for Iowa taxpayers.The hosts walk through opening-day speeches from Republican leaders and Kim Reynolds, highlighting a consistent message: spending drives taxation. Chris and John emphasize that Iowa's recent income tax reforms were only possible because of disciplined budgeting, and that the same principle must now be applied to property taxes. Proposals such as a 2% cap on local government budget growth are framed not as cuts, but as a way to slow growth to a level Iowans can afford.A significant portion of the conversation focuses on the predictable pushback from local governments and media voices, including familiar scare tactics suggesting that any restraint will lead to unsafe communities or failing infrastructure. Chris and John push back hard, noting that slowing the growth of spending is not the same as cutting essential services—and that similar warnings in past debates never materialized.The episode also dives into specific policy ideas emerging early in session, including limits on tax increment financing (TIF), efforts to redirect a larger share of the SAVE sales tax toward property tax relief, and incentives for local government consolidation and efficiency. While supportive of the overall direction, the hosts raise concerns about proposals like senior property tax freezes, warning that they risk creating unequal treatment within the tax code.The discussion closes on a cautiously optimistic note. With multiple major bills introduced in week one and clear alignment among Republican leaders, Chris and John argue that the opportunity for meaningful reform is real—but only if lawmakers stay focused on the core issue: controlling the growth of government spending so taxpayers can finally get lasting relief.

This week Robert and Jazmin talked about the first week of the general assembly and reacted to all the filings that will make up the 2026 elections.
