Podcasts about wise counsel

Too many men are wandering around aimlessly through life doing just enough in their existence to make it through one more day. That's part of the reason I founded Order of Man and bring in incredible men like my guest today, Cody Jefferson. Cody is on a mission to help men find their purpose and live a life they're called to live. Today, Cody and I talk about why so many men feel they're always behind and never enough, the pressures a man faces daily and how to relieve them correctly, the source of joy and peace in a man's life, how your body will tell you a lot about your attitude and efforts in life, why men should focus on who they are, not what they do, and so much more.

Send us a text     Hello and welcome to Episode 11 in our series, “Stay in His Presence,” Season 13. My name is Stephanie Wright, your host.      We are continuing in our study of the attributes of the Holy Spirit from A to Z. The title of today's podcast is “Spiritual Warfare—On the Battlefield.” This podcast will encompass spiritual warfare and military warfare from a Biblical perspective. Our guest speaker is Dr. Charles Wright, who will enhance our understanding of spiritual warfare with his expertise in military warfare. His experiences, like those of many soldiers, were unique because, on occasion, he waged spiritual and military warfare simultaneously. He will share two of those accounts today: "Wise Counsel" and "Living Among the Dead." Then we will continue this episode with a sequel, Part 2, "I'm Still Alive,"  and "Punji Pits," and "In the Trenches with the Holy Spirit." Thank you for joining us.STEPHANIE:   Welcome, Dr. Wright.CHARLES:      Thank you, Stephanie.STEPHANIE:  Before we get started on our topic of the Holy Spirit in spiritual warfare and military warfare, let's tell our listeners a little bit about you.            Charles served in the United States Army from August 3, 1966, to August 2, 1968. He was an infantry specialist medic. He served in Vietnam in 1967. He has received the Bronze Star with the "V" device for heroism and the Purple Heart for injuries he sustained in the war. He has also received the Vietnam Service Medal and the National Defense Service Medal. After his service, he graduated from college, received his master's degree from Ohio Christian University. On June 7 of this year, he received his doctorate in theology from North Carolina College of Theology. He is an ordained bishop and apostle. He is the founder of Charles George Missions, Inc. He is the father of two daughters and five grandchildren, and my husband of 52 years.CHARLES: Thank you, Stephanie.STEPHANIE: Here is a definition of spiritual warfare that I came up with recently.Spiritual warfare is the ongoing battle between God and His holy forces against Satan and his unholy forces both in the heavenly realm and on earth for control over humanity and their destiny—eternal life or everlasting damnation.Would you like to comment on that, or should we proceed directly to the encounters you had, which probably give that definition life?(The podcast continues with Dr. Wright's accounts in Vietnam.)If you want to contact us or comment on this podcast, please visit our website and select www.cgmissions.com/podcasts, where all episodes are available by category in series format.

Since the first person to summit Mt. Everest, Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953, many have achieved climbing the world's largest mountain. Among them is the youngest to ever climb Mt. Everest—Jordan Romero. What can we learn from a young man who summited the world's tallest mountain at age 13?

The Apostles are in trouble again for spreading the message about the death and resurrection of Yeshua of Nazareth, and they almost get the death sentence, but a wise man stand up for them in their time of trouble. Listen to learn how we should be honored to be persecuted for faith in the Messiah.

Sometimes we think that if we really have faith, we should hear from God on our own and never need help. But God never intended us to walk this journey alone. He often confirms His voice through others—especially wise, godly counsel.Our springboard for today's discussion is:"Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety." — Proverbs 11:14Hearing God isn't meant to be an isolated experience. One of the ways God protects you from deception and confirms His direction is by speaking through other people—mentors, pastors, and mature believers who know the Word and walk closely with Him.If what you think you're hearing can't stand up to godly counsel, that's a red flag.This isn't about getting permission from others—it's about seeking confirmation from those grounded in truth. Pride says, “I don't need advice.” Humility says, “God, speak to me through your people.”David had Nathan. Paul had Barnabas. Even Moses had Jethro. You and I? We need each other too.So if you feel like God is leading you in a certain direction, bring it into the light. Share it with someone who prays, someone who listens, someone who knows the Word. If it's from God, they'll likely say, “That sounds like Him.”Question of the Day:Have you shared what you're hearing with a trusted believer?Let's Pray:Lord, thank You for the wise people You've placed in my life. Give me humility to seek counsel and courage to receive it. Help me recognize Your voice through others.

Today, we're diving into a topic that's crucial for every believer: the role of wise counsel in our spiritual journey. Life is filled with decisions—some small, some life-changing—and the voices we listen to can shape the direction of our faith. How do we discern the right guidance? What does Scripture say about the importance of seeking godly advice? Let's get to work.Our springboard for today's discussion is: Proverbs 11:14—"Where there is no guidance, a people falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety."This verse reminds us that seeking wisdom isn't a sign of weakness but of strength. Throughout the Bible, we see men and women who flourished because they listened to wise counsel. Moses relied on Jethro's advice to delegate leadership responsibilities. David had Nathan to guide him. Even Paul mentored Timothy, passing down wisdom that shaped the early church. God never intended for us to walk alone—we thrive when we have godly voices speaking into our lives.The right counsel brings clarity, discernment, and protection from costly mistakes. When we isolate ourselves, pride and confusion can cloud our judgment. But when we surround ourselves with mature believers, mentors, and spiritual leaders, we gain a broader perspective and a stronger foundation for making decisions. Wise counsel aligns with God's Word, challenges us to grow, and helps us navigate life's uncertainties with faith and wisdom.Question of the Day: Who are the wise voices in your life, and how have they helped shape your walk with God?Let's Pray: Lord, thank You for the gift of wise counsel.

Did you know a single prideful decision by Solomon's son permanently divided God's people into two kingdoms? When faced with his first leadership test, Rehoboam rejected the wisdom of experienced elders and embraced his friends' harsh counsel instead. His story stands as a powerful warning about the consequences of pride and reminds us that who we listen to shapes who we become. Listen now as we explore how Rehoboam's failure points us to our need for Jesus, the humble King who perfectly models the discernment and God-dependence we all require.

Text: Proverbs 20:17-18 (ESV) 17Plans are established by counsel; by wise guidance wage war.18 Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler. WISE COUNSEL Seeking advice from others is an often-repeated theme in the book of Proverbs. Strategic plans based on wise guidance are valuable when waging war, are they not? Good planning applies to all situations. Diligence and planning have to be done even as we recognize that everything is subject to God's sovereign will (Prov 12:24; 15:22; Jas 4:13–15). Most importantly, we have to seek God's guidance through His words and prayer. [Prov 3:5-6; Eph 6:13–18; Psa 119:105] In verse 19, Solomon warns us about staying away from simple babbler or slanderer. He is the person who is making false statements about someone to ruin their reputation. It can also refer to things like gossip, which is often unsubstantiated rumor or scandal, or undue criticism. The word used here has the similarity of terms for shrewd merchants and those for liars and deceivers. By all means, the "gossip monger" or "tale bearer" should be avoided. Even in his letter to Timothy, the apostle Paul warned about those who depart from faithful pursuits and occupy their time as slanderers: gossips and busybodies. Referring to some erring widows, he said “Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not. So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, manage their households, and give the adversary no occasion for slander.

Struggling with my own journey of same-sex attraction, I once believed that my persistent desires meant God must be okay with it. In this episode of Calibrate Conversations, we unpack the story of a woman who arrived at a similar conclusion after years of prayer and self-reflection. We delve into the challenging yet liberating truth that God's promises aren't about removing our struggles but rather empowering us to surrender and live in obedience. Through personal anecdotes and scriptural references, we explore how daily surrender, community, confession, and accountability are vital parts of the discipleship process, leading to genuine transformation and a life of peace with Christ.We also address the psychological toll of concealing one's sexuality and the freedom that comes with living authentically within a Christian community. The weight of others' opinions can be crushing, but anchoring our identity in Christ brings unparalleled relief. Furthermore, we tackle the controversial topic of conversion therapy, separating harmful misconceptions from the true journey of spiritual growth. By examining the choices we do have in living a life aligned with faith, we emphasize the importance of building a compassionate, grace-filled community where authenticity and support can truly thrive.Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! TIMESTAMPS:(00:37 - 01:50) Exposing False Beliefs on Same-Sex Attraction(06:09 - 07:17) Transformation and Surrender in Discipleship(14:54 - 16:21) Struggles and Authenticity in Christian Community(22:26 - 23:25) The Efficacy of Conversion TherapyOther ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#TikTok #LGBTQ #MadeItOutPodcast #Christian #Christianity

Today's Scripture reading: Psalm 119.17-24 (MSG)

Garrett Kell, Pastor of Del Ray Baptist Church

RESOURCES: Leslie's Free Webinar: www.leslievernick.com/o Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE Leslie Vernick's book: The Emotionally Destructive Marriage In this episode of Relationship Truth: Unfiltered, Julie Sedenko and Leslie Vernick delve into the concept of "core strength" and its critical importance for women navigating destructive relationships. This episode is designed for any woman who feels she may be in a harmful relationship, offering practical insights on how to build and use core strength in everyday life, whether she chooses to stay or leave. Understanding Core Strength: Leslie shares her personal journey of realizing the importance of core strength, not just physically but emotionally and spiritually. She introduces the concept with a metaphor of physical fitness, explaining how just as a strong core prevents physical collapse, emotional core strength prevents women from collapsing under the weight of a destructive relationship. Core Strength Components: Courageously Committed to Truth: Living in reality, not denial, and embracing the truth even when it's difficult. Open to the Holy Spirit and Wise Others: The importance of being teachable and surrounding oneself with wisdom rather than just strong opinions. Taking Responsibility: Understanding personal responsibility for one's safety, well-being, and character development without shifting blame. Empathy with Boundaries: Balancing compassion with the necessity of setting boundaries that protect against enabling destructive behavior. Practical Applications: Leslie and Julie explore practical scenarios where core strength is applied, including handling disagreements about finances, asserting one's needs, and setting boundaries with a controlling or abusive partner. They discuss the importance of detachment and how women can maintain their emotional and spiritual well-being despite external pressures from a difficult partner. Facing Reality and Fear: The episode addresses the fear of confronting harsh realities, like leaving an abusive situation or facing the consequences of setting boundaries. Leslie emphasizes the need to acknowledge fear but not let it dictate actions. Building a Safety Plan: The importance of having a safety plan is discussed for women who find themselves in physically dangerous situations. Resources and steps to create a safety plan are provided. Wise Counsel and Discernment: How to discern between wise advice and manipulative counsel, especially in a church setting. The importance of aligning advice with the true character of God, as revealed through Jesus, is highlighted.

As we all move along our journey of life, we are no doubt shaped by what we encounter. Our experiences and the people we encounter have a tremendous impact on who we are. This is especially true of kids and teenagers. Kids and teenagers have many voices and influencers in their lives. As we attempt to disciple the children and teens in our church, in our homes, and in our community, we need to pay attention to the voices in their lives and do everything we can to surround them with the “cloud of witnesses” they need to grow in their faith.  On this episode of the M2P podcast, you'll join Sass, Amy, and Kerry as they bring to you an interview they recorded while at the 2024 D6 Conference in Orlando, FL. The M2P team had a great conversation with pastor, author, professor, and dad Rich Griffith, about the power of surrounding kids and teens with the positive influences they need. Rich shares a lot of great nuggets from his book Voices: Helping Our Children and Youth Listen to Wise Counsel. Rich has many years of experience both in ministry and as a parent. Rich and the M2P team offer some great insight and encouragement to those of us leading kids and teenagers. It really is a great conversation!
