Identifying where our problems originate is one thing, but locating the Divine Healer is key in getting clear of obstacles in our lives. At each mile marker in our life journeys, God is standing alongside the road, smiling at us, and holding out His strong hand to guide us. And from the indispensable wisdom of scripture to stories of human triumphs over tragedies, He is always there reminding us we're never truly alone. His grace and mercies begin to overshadow and overwhelm those forces that want to harm us, and it's then that we see God for who He truly is. 1 Peter 5:10 says, “And after you've suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.” And that is Good News! Let's pray. Lord, it's important to see who our enemy is, but it's more important to look past that and concentrate our focus on you who brings us that peace that passes all understanding, the kind that gets down deep in us and calms us from the inside out. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

Do you read books just to hit a number each year? Or do you soak in a select few so you can implement, implement, implement?When I hit record this week with my neatly outlined episode, I sensed something was... off. The timing didn't feel right, but I couldn't put my finger on why.And then it hit me.I knew I had to pause the power-packed guesting episode I had planned (don't worry - it's coming next week). Because sometimes your perfectly mapped-out plan gets hijacked. And by hijacked, I mean gently, yet unmistakably, redirected by God.If your podcast (and business) feel strung out on tactics and starving for purpose, lean in. I'm sharing the detour He walked me through -- a detour that pulled me back to the foundation of why I even grabbed the mic in the first place.I'm confronting a few excuses I didn't realize I was still hiding behind… and offering you a challenge that could flip the whole second half of your 2025.(P.S. Stay to the end; I tease next week's play-by-play on turning guest spots into revenue streams...because purpose and profit can absolutely share a mic.)Almolonga Guatemala Revival  Recommended Read: Anointed for Business - Ed Silvoso

Was wine in the Bible just a calorie source—or something far richer? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, author of The Mountain Shall Drip Sweet Wine: A Biblical Theology of Alcohol, joins Dru Johnson to explore how wine and alcohol shaped ancient Israel's culture, theology, and imagination. Dr. Dunne traces how biblical wine reflected not only the scarcity and agricultural hopes of ancient life, but also a tradition of craftsmanship, connoisseurship, and divine blessing. Together they unpack why biblical wine wasn't just functional—it was symbolic of abundance, peace, and God's favor. From fermentation methods and ancient storage to the surprising case for white wine at the wedding at Cana, this episode challenges modern assumptions about alcohol in Scripture. Dunne explores why the biblical world viewed wine as inherently miraculous, why production was tied to the land promise, and how modern communion links us to Canaan's terroir in unexpected ways.

Worship isn't just music—it's what you serve, what you sacrifice for, and who (or what) shapes you. In this powerful episode of The Impossible Life, Nick is joined by returning guest Josh Craft to explore a hard-hitting biblical truth: You become like what you worship. (Psalm 115:8)From ancient idols to modern obsessions, the conversation uncovers how men today are constantly worshiping—often without realizing it. And the sobering reality is: whatever you give your time, attention, and trust to is forming your identity.In This Episode:The law of first mention and what Genesis 22 teaches us about real worshipHow Abraham's obedience redefined worship as trust, surrender, and sacrificeWhy your work, choices, and attention are all acts of worshipThe danger of modern idols: success, status, comfort, insecurityThe Hebrew and Greek words for worship—and how they reveal the heart of biblical manhoodGet the energy you need for living the Impossible Life.

Flute 360 | Episode 332: "Is It the Universe…or God? Rethinking the Creative Process as a Flutist" In this solo episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay invites you into a vulnerable, soulful conversation about creativity, faith, and what it truly means to be a modern-day artist. Inspired by the Flute 360 Accelerator's June book club selection, The Creative Act by Rick Rubin, Heidi reflects on how the book reshaped her understanding of artistry — and how viewing “the Source” through a faith-based lens revealed a deeper truth: that we are co-creators with God. This is not just a book review. It's a gentle nudge for any flutist who's been questioning their identity, comparing their path to others, or wondering whether their art still matters in a season of change or healing. Whether you're playing, podcasting, composing, writing, or resting — this episode will remind you that your creativity is still valid. Still sacred. And still very much needed. Main Points: Why redefining “the Source” as God can ground and deepen your creative process The lie that says “If I'm not performing, I'm not creating” — and how to rewrite that story What it means to be a flutist in a season of injury, recovery, or transformation How to release comparison and show up in your own artistic lane with joy and freedom Why your artistry counts — even if it looks different than it used to How the Flute 360 Accelerator creates a space for flutists to reflect, grow, and connect Resources: Book: The Creative Act by Rick Rubin Join the Flute 360 Accelerator Program: Click Here to Enroll – Tier 1, 2, or 3 Subscribe + Review: If you loved this conversation, please subscribe and leave a review.

When fear takes control, God just crushes it.None of us are immune from feeling unsettled at times. Circumstances have a way of knocking us off balance. How we respond not only affects our lives, but those who are watching us.In the film “The Patriot,” a Colonial militia leader sees the British kidnap his son. Taking the two younger sons with him, they wait in ambush in the forest. One of the sons is rattled and crying, so the father puts his hands on the boy's shoulders, looks him in the eyes, and says, “Steady.” Fear drains from the boy's face.In that moment of terror for the whole family, the father's example won the day, and their day ended well.In 2 Timothy 1:7, we learn the source of calm. It says this: “For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and a sound mind.”God has given you a spirit of power, love, and a good mind. So don't let fear, the enemy, or the world intimidate you when it comes to sharing your faith. Speak God's truth with boldness, and love. Your moment will come one day, and by keeping in mind the truth of God's word, courage will overcome fear.Notice the qualities mentioned in Second Timothy. God has actually given us courage, but also power, and a sound mind—also phrased as self-discipline. And discipline will help keep you steady in a crisis. That spirit of power actually does our fighting for us, and it is the enemy who is afraid.Let's pray.Father, you are good to us. Just as Jesus modeled for us how to handle fear when he prayed in the garden, we know that you have our back, and we can be courageous. Thank you for a sound mind and a calm heart in times of trouble. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

When we catch ourselves putting too much focus on our finances, scripture recommends generosity as a way to restore balance. The apostle Paul told the Corinthians to be a conduit for giving to others as a form of service and gratitude.  “You will be enriched in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, ...

In this episode of The Wisdom Calling Podcast, we revisit a powerful moment in Israel's history—when the ark of God returned and King David led the people in a national celebration of worship. As voices rose and instruments played, Psalm 96 and Psalm 106 were sung—two psalms filled with praise, reflection, and deep wisdom.What do these songs teach us about the character of God? Why does worship require both celebration and confession? And how can remembering the past help us live more wisely in the present?Join Bobo as we unpack the “Hallelujah” of praise and the humility of repentance—and discover how worship reorients our hearts, strengthens our steps, and cultivates lasting wisdom.Notes:Listen to "Praise to the Lord, Almighty" You can order the devotionals at https://amzn.to/4h8zFe6 or https://wisdomcalling.orgFollow us on Instagram: @wisdomcallingnow

In this final installment of our introductory series on Eastern Orthodoxy for Reformed Christians, Camden Bucey explores Orthodox worship and sacramental theology through a Reformed lens. This episode provides a careful and charitable overview of Eastern Orthodox liturgical practices, including the Divine Liturgy, veneration of icons, and the centrality of the Eucharist. What makes Eastern Orthodox worship distinct? Why are icons and incense used? What theological principles undergird these practices? Camden discusses the symbolism of Eastern Orthodox worship while also addressing key doctrinal differences—especially concerning the second commandment, the regulative principle, and the doctrine of salvation. Whether you're a Reformed believer curious about the traditions of the East or seeking to understand why some are drawn to Orthodoxy's mystery and aesthetic, this episode offers insight, clarity, and biblical reflection.

“Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.” — Ecclesiastes 4:4Ecclesiastes shows us how even good work can go wrong when driven by envy. What starts as diligence can quickly become a pursuit of status. Today, we'll look at how chasing approval leaves us empty—and how God invites us into something much greater.The Idol of StatusThe Bible Project says Ecclesiastes “targets all the ways we try to build meaning and purpose in life apart from God.” It gives voice to the Preacher, who carefully exposes the emptiness of paths like pleasure, wealth, and status. In recent weeks, we've looked at the idols of pleasure and accumulation. Today, we turn to the idol of status.This one can be harder to spot. The line between excellence and envy is thin. Ecclesiastes 4:4 says, “Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor.” That's a striking thought. Our motivation may not be love of the work or calling—it's often the quiet urge to compete. To keep up. To be seen.That's what status does. It whispers, You're not enough—unless others notice you. And without realizing it, our careers, spending, and even our generosity, can become ways of proving our worth.“Keeping up with the Joneses” isn't just a saying—it's a way of life for many. We compare houses, vacations, schools, and the pressure to match others can lead to debt, burnout, and dissatisfaction with what God has already provided.And in our digital age, the pressure's amplified. Social media showcases only the highlight reel, not the debt, exhaustion, or stress that often accompany it. But we still scroll and wonder, “Why not me?”A Better Way ForwardEcclesiastes answers that longing with honesty. In verse 8, the Preacher describes someone who works tirelessly, builds wealth, but has no one to share it with: “There is no end to all his toil, and his eyes are never satisfied with riches…” It's a picture of success without joy. Activity without peace. A full schedule, but an empty soul.However, he then offers a better alternative. In verse 6, we read: “Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.” In other words, it's better to have less with peace than more with anxiety. That's not laziness—it's wisdom. A life lived with margin, grounded in God's provision.Work as Worship, Not PerformanceThis is the invitation Ecclesiastes extends: not to give up on excellence, but to anchor it in the right place. When our work flows from a love for God and a desire to serve others, it becomes a blessing, not a burden. It becomes worship.We don't need applause—we need peace. And in Christ, we already have it. His approval is not based on performance. It's based on grace. That frees us from striving to be seen and lets us rest in being known.Maybe that's where you are—tired, overextended, wondering what you're chasing. Ecclesiastes invites you to step off the treadmill of comparison. You don't have to strive for identity. You already have it in Jesus.We often see examples of this. A professional sacrifices evenings and weekends to climb the corporate ladder, only to feel lonely at the top. A family maxes out their budget to project an image, while tension quietly builds at home. These aren't just stories—they're warnings. And they echo Ecclesiastes' caution about what we're trading in our pursuit of more.Sometimes this isn't just about envy. It's about fear—fear of being unseen, of being left behind. So we push harder, hoping success will quiet that fear. But only God can give the peace we're looking for.Redefining SuccessContentment doesn't mean quitting. It means redefining success. It means anchoring your worth in something that lasts. When you stop striving in vain, your ambition gets reoriented. Your work becomes more joyful. Your giving becomes more meaningful.So ask yourself today: Who am I trying to impress? What am I really chasing?If your hands are full but your heart is empty, Ecclesiastes invites you to trade performance for peace. True success isn't about being noticed or admired—it's about being faithful with what God has given you. And your worth? It's not something you have to earn or achieve. In Christ, you have nothing to prove because in Him, you are deeply loved, fully known, and eternally valued.Want to Go Deeper?If you want to dig deeper into these themes, we've created a new study just for you. It's called Wisdom Over Wealth, and it explores what Scripture—especially the book of Ecclesiastes—has to say about money, work, and living for what really matters.This month, when you give $35 or more to support the ministry, we'll send it to you as our thanks.

No one is truly alone. Some people have many relatives and friends, others just a few. Occasionally, someone will have no real friends or family, but all of us interact with humans, and that over time has proven to be dicey. The health of our relationships is one of the biggest factors in how we function each day. Turmoil and chaos at home or work, or both, puts us in emotional quicksand. On the other hand, healthy relationships in our lives improve our overall health and make us more productive.In Genesis, God modeled right relationships for humans, and this model continues through the Bible right to the end in Revelation. From this, we see that our first priority in relationships is to be in fellowship with our Creator. Get that one right and everything else flows. Following close behind is finding harmony in our human relationships, and getting this right is crucial to finding peace. Ephesians 4:2–3 says, “Be completely humble and gentle. Be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”Most people are familiar with the well-known Bible verses that deal with relationships, such as Paul's wisdom from Ephesians, but Scripture is loaded with helpful and healing relationship commands. We hesitate to call it advice because God doesn't really give advice. He tells us what is good for us and what may be harmful. For example, a fairly obscure passage in Job speaks to mean in any era having healthy relationships with women. In Job 31:1 the suffering man says, “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.” Wow. So simple, yet very important and profound.That chapter goes on to say that God sees all that we do. He's watching how we treat people. Job made it clear that a man can decide he's going to treat women with respect. It isn't complicated or beyond our reach. So often, simply deciding to be a decent human being leads to waves of healing and peace of mind for everyone. Lots of books have been written about relationships, from marriage to raising children, but the best book of all has the best wisdom, and if you check that out, your relationships will thank you. Let's pray.Father God, you've given us the gift of interacting with other people. Each is unique and created special. We ask that you send the Holy Spirit to guide our relationships so that they're pleasing to you and to others. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

Segment 3: • A violent attack in Michigan stopped by brave church members — do you have a plan? • Churches must take serious security precautions in an increasingly hostile culture. • Evil doesn't take Sundays off — wise leadership includes protecting the flock. Segment 4: • VBS has morphed — but should kids lead Sunday worship? • Entertainment-driven services may feel fun, but undermine biblical worship. • Worship isn't a Whoopty Doo Fest; it's about glorifying God, not entertaining people. ___ Thanks for listening!
