11/22/2025 | This day's featured sermon on SermonAudio: Title: The Right Worship of God Speaker: Rev. Clayton Spronk Broadcaster: Faith Protestant Reformed Church Event: Sunday - AM Date: 7/20/2025 Bible: Jeremiah 10 Length: 68 min.
Humans have a problem asking for help. We can probably chalk it up to our proud hearts.Often, when we are really up against it, that's when we resist seeking help.Jesus does away with all that.Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”Ask yourself: is my pride keeping me from asking for help? If so, mull that over. And then, take a step toward the Lord and ask for what you need.God opens doors when we ask Him to. And sometimes what we find on the other side isn't what we expected. When that happens, we choose patience, and we remain open to His good plans for us. When you've asked God to help and your prayers are answered, share the Good News with people you meet. Tell anyone who will listen that the Lord of the Universe cared about you and delivered you from a problem no one else could solve. And if the answer He gave was totally unexpected and sent you in a different direction — share that, too. Accepting God's plan when it doesn't match up with our own best-laid plans is what faith is all about.Let's pray. Lord, please give us a heart that seeks you. God, we want to be obedient, and we know that your blessings, whatever they look like, will follow. Thank you. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

What makes worship, worship?Jesus defined worship for the Woman of Samaria at Jacob's well in John 4:23 and 24. “But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”We should teach our children to worship God wherever they are, not just at church.What matters most in worship? The posture of our hearts and minds. He should be our focus. Locations and details change, but He is eternal and unchanging.Let's lead our boys to worship God “in spirit and truth.”For more information about a Proven Process that is helping boys grow into godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
Join us as we dive into the word: Isaiah 6 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.” 4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke. 5 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.” 6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.” 8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

You've heard of heat-seeking missiles. They are weapons so sophisticated that they appear to have a mind of their own. The missile is launched and finds its target, and destruction happens. What if a heat-seeking missile could be used for good? What if one has been launched…in your direction?Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”If you open your heart to God—even if you aren't a believer—then it's as if Jesus is now the missile launched and He is coming toward your still-beating heart. The heart that has been wounded. He finds you and connects in such a powerful way, but the connection is for life, and not for destruction.The Word tells us to simply ask Him and He will find us.Let's pray. Lord, your unwavering promises to stay with us during trials is unique in history. Thank you for loving us that much. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Gary Weaver from Goodyear, AZ. Your commitment through Project23 helps deliver God's Word daily with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 13:15-20 Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, "Please let us detain you and prepare a young goat for you." And the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, "If you detain me, I will not eat of your food. But if you prepare a burnt offering, then offer it to the Lord." (For Manoah did not know that he was the angel of the Lord.) And Manoah said to the angel of the Lord, "What is your name, so that, when your words come true, we may honor you?" And the angel of the Lord said to him, "Why do you ask my name, seeing it is wonderful?" So Manoah took the young goat with the grain offering, and offered it on the rock to the Lord, to the one who works wonders, and Manoah and his wife were watching. And when the flame went up toward heaven from the altar, the angel of the Lord went up in the flame of the altar. Now Manoah and his wife were watching, and they fell on their faces to the ground. — Judges 13:15-20 Manoah offered to prepare a meal, but the angel refused. The only fitting gift wasn't food for a guest—it was worship to God. And so Manoah laid down the offering. Then it happened: the angel rose in the flame, and the altar blazed with holy fire. In that moment, Manoah and his wife hit the ground. The God of wonders had revealed himself as the God who consumes. God doesn't just want part of us. He wants to consume all of us. Just as fire devoured Manoah's sacrifice, God calls us to place our whole lives on the altar—our thoughts, our time, our ambitions, our relationships. He consumes our sin in judgment, but he also consumes our lives in love, drawing us fully to himself. Too often, we give God scraps: leftover energy, half-hearted prayers, or casual attention. But he is a "consuming fire." He's not interested in being added to our schedules—He wants to be the center. Let the Lord consume you today. Not just your Sunday, but your Monday. Not just your words, but your heart. Worship is more than a song—it's offering your whole self to the God who consumes. ASK THIS: What areas of my life am I holding back from God's consuming fire? Do I worship God with leftovers, or with all of me? What would it look like to place my whole life on the altar today? DO THIS: Take one area you've been holding back—your time, money, or hidden struggle—and consciously offer it to God as worship. Don't give Him scraps. Let Him consume it all. PRAY THIS: Lord, You are the God who consumes. Burn away my pride, my distractions, and my half-heartedness. Take all of me, and let my whole life be a living sacrifice to You. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Consume Me."
Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1 – “To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.”Teaching Points: • God moves in divine timing not chaos, but rhythm. • Worship synchronizes our hearts with the rhythm of Heaven. • Prophetic musicians must flow, not force, the beat. • Rhythms of prayer, praise, rest, and response reveal Heaven's pulse.Activation:→ Tap your hand or foot as you pray in tongues and feel the rhythm of the Spirit guiding your intercession.https://worshipingmusician.org

The story of the Prodigal Son is one we can all relate to. The Bible tells the story of a brash young man who leaves his home after asking for his inheritance. His loving father complies, and let's just say the son learns some valuable lessons on his travels.Eventually, he humbles himself and comes home; he needs his father and his family.It is really a story of Jesus and us.Matthew 7:7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”We screw up sometimes. Maybe it's so bad we can't see a way back.That's when Jesus stretches out His arms and welcomes us home. He isn't as concerned with where we've been as He is with where we end up. His perfect love and forgiveness are the only real ointment for our self-inflicted wounds. If you think you've screwed up too much, put that out of your mind and simply tell Jesus you need Him. Let's pray. Lord, your willingness to welcome us back to fellowship is something to behold. We are grateful for your grace. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

This week features a very thoughtful question from one of our listeners. Lots to unpack on this one.
What comes to your mind when you hear the word eternity? For many of us, it was shaped by childhood moments filled with fear, confusion, and even a little panic. In this message, Pastor Kevin revisits one of his earliest church memories and shows how the hope of heaven slowly drifted in church history from something joyful to something frightening.We pray this message fills your heart with peace and confidence as you look toward the future God has promised.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today's Message Notes: https://bible.com/events/49514385Stay Updated on our Campus: https://linktr.ee/nlcsearcyOnline Giving: http://newlifechurch.tv/givingMailing Address: 2851 West Beebe-Capps Expy, Searcy, AR 72143For more information on our campus, email us at searcy@newlifechurch.tv or visit newlifechurch.tv.

Pastor Corbett continues our Defining Worship series by reminding us that true worship isn't just a song—it's a lifestyle marked by obedience. Using Abraham's costly obedience in Genesis 22 and the priests' empty sacrifices in Malachi 1, he shows the difference between worship rooted in surrender and worship offered with a divided heart. Drawing from Colossians 1, he calls us to “walk in a manner worthy of the Lord,” letting our love, service, generosity, and witness overflow as acts of worship. The challenge: identify where God is calling you to obey and let your whole life reflect the worth of Jesus.

This week's episode gathers Steve, Josh, Michael, and Keion around the table for a meaningful conversation about how God continues to write our testimonies in every season. From Josh reflecting on the legacy of people who poured into him as a young worship leader, to Keion sharing how serving on the tech team has reshaped his view of worship and intimacy with God, the episode carries a beautiful thread: Jesus meets us where we are — weary, hopeful, discouraged, or energized — and keeps shaping us forward. The guys lean into Paxton's Sunday message on the three “seats” at the table: the weary seat of Elijah, the communal seat of the Corinthians, and the transformative seat of the blind man, reminding listeners that no encounter with Christ ever leaves us unchanged. The hosts also talk honestly and humorously about the swings between spiritual highs and emotional lows — the “spiritual adrenaline” that can come with moments like Night of Worship, and the crash that sometimes follows. They encourage listeners to stay rooted in community, to recognize that unity is formed at the Lord's table, and that our seats together make a table where Christ's grace is proclaimed. The episode finishes with an exciting update from Steve about the launch of the Cadiz Campus, inviting the church to pray, serve, and prepare for a new opportunity to “make it hard to go to hell in Christian County and Trigg County.”
In this episode of The Sharing Grace Podcast, Brandon is joined by Jay Austin and Kate Little for a conversation on what it means to live a life of worship shaped by gratitude. Drawing from Luke 17 and the story of the ten lepers, they explore how thankfulness fuels true worship and how obedience often leads to unexpected moments of God's movement.Kate also shares insights from Student Ministry. Together, the team unpacks practical ways to cultivate gratitude and make worship a daily rhythm.If you're looking to deepen your worship beyond Sunday, this episode will encourage and inspire you.

Pastor Natalie Morris invites us to picture the awe of God's throne from Revelation and reminds us from Hebrews 4:15-16 that, because of Jesus our High Priest, we can approach God with confidence to receive mercy and grace. She calls us to fix our focus on Him and bring our real needs before His throne.
Being a child of God isn't just a title, it's a way of life. In this message, Ayren shows us how to stay close to Jesus, practice righteousness, and live in a way that prepares us for His coming.

It's always a pleasure to welcome back Dr. Shane Enete—Associate Professor of Finance at Biola University, founder of Biola's Financial Planning Program, and creator of The Money Storybook Bible Podcast. His creative work helps parents disciple their children in biblical stewardship by weaving financial lessons into retold Bible stories.When asked what inspired the podcast, Dr. Enete explained that the idea grew from a common question he receives: “How can I teach my kids about money?” His realization was simple yet profound—the Bible already does this. “The Bible talks about money more than almost any other topic, and it's filled with stories for all ages,” he said. “So I thought, what if I just told these stories to my kids in a way that helped them see themselves in the story and learn about money at the same time?”Stewardship as an Expression of LoveFor Dr. Enete, the goal goes far beyond teaching budgeting or saving. “Stewardship is one of the greatest opportunities we have to express our love for Jesus,” he said. “When we share, we're loving Him and others.”He hopes parents and children alike will see money not as a source of stress or status, but as an opportunity for love, wisdom, and worship. “I want kids to understand the dangers of debt and discontentment,” he added, “but even more, I want them to know that Jesus is everything—and that money can be used to love Him.”Storytime with a PurposeEach podcast episode features Dr. Enete reading to his own children, with interactive moments that bring the stories to life. “We start with fun icebreakers, like a ‘Would you rather' question, then read a Bible story together,” he explained. “Afterward, I ask questions to help them reflect, and we finish with a hands-on activity that reinforces the lesson.”One of Dr. Enete's favorite family moments came from a story about Solomon. “I asked my kids which world they'd rather live in—one where they're rich but don't know Jesus, or one where they have Jesus but not the riches. They didn't even hesitate—they chose Jesus. That's when I knew these lessons were hitting home.”The Story of Lydia: Business as MinistryOne memorable episode, Purple Snail Robes, retells the story of Lydia from Acts 16. In Dr. Enete's version, Lydia initially wants to give away her wealth to follow Paul, but he helps her see that her business can be a ministry in itself.“Sometimes God wants us to serve Him right where we are,” Paul tells her. “When you share what you have and do your work with skill and kindness, you're showing people who Jesus is.”Dr. Enete shared that Lydia's story was inspired by the idea of Gospel Patrons—those who use their resources to fuel God's work. “Lydia was one of the first gospel patrons,” he said. “I wanted kids to see that our work and business can glorify God. Plus,” he laughed, “the fact that purple dye came from smashed snails makes it extra fun for kids!”The Story of Nicodemus: Costly GenerosityAnother powerful episode, 75 Pounds of Spices, reimagines Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus as they prepare Jesus' body for burial—with a young girl named Abigail watching nearby. The story illustrates generosity that is both courageous and costly, as Joseph donates his tomb and Nicodemus buys an extravagant amount of burial spices.Even little Abigail joins in, offering her treasured blue necklace to honor Jesus. “That moment shows that no act of generosity is too small,” said Dr. Enete. “It's a picture of giving that flows from love—something children can grasp in a tangible way.”Free Resources for FamiliesTo help parents extend the lessons at home, Dr. Enete created a free activity book that pairs with the podcast. It includes fun exercises, badges, and a certificate of completion—each tied to key money principles like giving, saving, and contentment.You can find the podcast and resources at WholeHeartFinances.com.At the heart of The Money Storybook Bible Podcast is a simple but transformative message: Jesus is the true treasure. Teaching kids about money isn't just about dollars and cents—it's about helping them see that every financial decision can be an act of love for God and others.As Dr. Enete put it, “More than anything, I want kids to know that money isn't the goal—knowing and loving Jesus is.”On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've been diagnosed with a terminal illness and care for my four-year-old grandson. I have $100,000 in life insurance, $50,000 in retirement savings, and $20,000 in cash. How can I set up a trust and invest wisely to provide for him after I'm gone? Also, does the guardian I choose also control the trust, or must they be named separately as trustee or beneficiary?I've seen ads claiming thieves can steal your home's title unless you buy special insurance. Is that a real concern or just a scare tactic?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Money Storybook Bible PodcastWhole Heart FinancesWhole Heart Finances: A Jesus-Centered Guide to Managing Your Money with Joy by Dr. Shane EneteWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

In this episode of Quakers Today, co-hosts Sweet Miche (they/them) and Peterson Toscano (he/him) invite you to learn more about the sometimes baffling practice of silent worship. Whether you're a long-time Friend or someone who has never stepped into a mostly silent meeting, we are pulling back the curtain to explore what happens in our hearts, minds, and bodies when we sit together in worship. The Purpose of Ministry We speak with author Rhiannon Grant about her book, Speaking in Quaker Meeting for Worship: What, When, How, and Why. Rhiannon helps us understand the purpose of spoken ministry in the silent meeting, explaining how speech that deepens silence is a vital part of our shared spiritual practice. Quote: "The purpose of ministry then might be understood as deepening the silence of meeting for worship." Read a review of Speaking in Quaker Meeting for Worship by Paul Buckley at FriendsJournal.org. Learn more about Rhiannon Grant's book and other Quaker Quicks at QuakerBooks.org/Collections/Quaker-Quicks. Our First Meetings for Worship Peterson and Sweet Miche share their first experiences in Quaker worship: Peterson's search for community after 9/11 and Sweet Miche's feeling of guidance at Pendle Hill. We also hear from Paula Christophersen, a Quaker in Germany, who shared her first experience of ministry. You can watch the full video of Paula Christophersen on YouTube or at QuakerSpeak.com. Meeting for Worship with Attention to Worship Peterson introduces a new format for meeting for worship he's been experimenting with: Meeting for Worship with Attention to Worship. This model of worship uses the meeting's existing structure to guide newcomers by making the internal work of worship visible and conversational. Quaker Fiction We explore how writers use fiction and poetry to make the internal, mystical experience of worship visible. Anne E.G. Nydam's story, “The Conduits”, reveals the flow of connection in meeting through glowing lines of light. Peterson shares two of his short stories! “Penn's Spring”, uses a mysterious, unexplained wet patch on a meetinghouse wall to represent a spiritual movement in a "stagnant and dry" meeting. “What Is Actually There” features a high-schooler named Jordan reflecting on the enduring effort of the Quaker path. “A Fine Showing for the Court of Owls” by Jonathan Doering is a story about the radical Quaker abolitionist Benjamin Lay. Read Quaker-themed fiction and poetry in the November 2025 issue of Friends Journal. Listener Responses Who is someone you've encountered in fiction that embodies Quakerness? The character could be from a book or movie. They could be a hero or even a minor character, and they do not need to be Quaker. This month's fictional “Quakers” include: Pooh Bear, Maisie Dobbs, Gumby, Ted Lasso, Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, WALL-E, Stevens from The Remains of the Day, and Dorothea from George Eliot's Middlemarch. Next Month's Question We want to hear from you! What do you believe now that you didn't believe before becoming a friend or before encountering Quakerism?
