S4 E30 - Just Playing With The Box

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail It happens every year with young children. You get them the things on their wishlist for Christmas, but then later on Christmas morning, you find them not playing with the gift - but the box it came in. We are not unlike children. God designed this world and the things he has made to direct us back to the real gift, himself. Unfortunately, mankind would rather ignore the gift of God, and settle for playing with worthless idols instead. Don't just play with the box, the gift of God is far better. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

THINKIEST BOOKS OF 2024, second half

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! More than anything else, I read to make myself think. Maybe I’m thinking about a point of view I have not explored much, maybe I’m thinking about a struggle that I am facing or I’m helping someone else face, maybe I’m thinking about how lessons from the past can be helpful in the present, maybe I’m just thinking about one of my favorite topics and trying to get a deeper understanding. In any case, thinking is good. And maybe it will catch on if I talk about reading enough. It’s worth a try anyway. So these are the 10 books that made me

LAUGHTER: Abraham and Sarah. "Stuff Christians Like." Reading the room. Pie Face!

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! I hope I both give and receive the gift of laughter this holiday season. It really is the best medicine in a sick, sick world. But not all laughs are created equal. This week we’ll cover the pros and cons of the most famous laughing fit in the Bible; the jokes preachers tell and why they tell them; the balance we strike between flexibility and inauthenticity, complete with examples; and a game I won’t play specifically because it will make you laugh.

Redirected Love

Love Better

The enterprising farmers of Enterprise, a Herald of Prosperity that stop bugging others, and the importance of repentance. This year, we are learning to love better by exploring the greatest commandment – Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. We’ve looked at the parts of our lives that are typically associated with love – our heart, soul, and mind, but now we need to finish the journey by investigating how to love with all our strength. Weak love isn’t much love at all. Real love is made of sterner stuff, and if we are going to love better, we need to learn how

S4 E29 - Treasure These Moments In Your Heart

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail Having three young children, especially around the Holidays, can be very chaoitic. But while that's true, I need to remember how quickly this stage flies by - and how much I will miss it. I only get one chance to impact my children, how will I use this time? Even Mary, the mother of Jesus, took moments to take in his upbringing and treasure the moments in her heart. We would do well to follow her example, and remember that though our children our not our own and will soon be gone, they are a gift from God not to be taken for granted. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

Psalm 128

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

Psalm 128 A Song of Ascents “The quiet blessings of an ordered life are traced from the centre outwards in this psalm, as the eye travels from the godly man to his family and finally to Israel. Here is simple piety with its proper fruit of stability and peace: Kidner, 443. How are Psalms 127 and 128 linked? 1. The word blessed - 127:5; 128:1-2 2. eat/eating in 127:2; 128:2 3. Behold in 127:3; 128:4 4. son/sons in 127:3, 4; 128:3, 6 5. fruit in 127:3; 128:3 McCann, 1200; Allen, 184-185. “Both sections of Psalm 128 display the same movement from third person (vv. 1, 4) to direct address (vv. 2-3
