Love's Data

Love Better

NORAD, WIMEX, OKO, and other sundry acronyms of power and the precipice of human destruction. 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 searched our hearts and plumbed the depths of our soul for how to love the Lord better, and halfway through the year it is time to investigate our minds. How do we love God with all our mind? What does that even mean? This week is the fourth in a ten-part series on learning to love better with our minds… and today, we must talk about two men. One

THE ALAMO: A hill to die on. "The Blood of Heroes." The Riverwalk. My game.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! If it’s Texas Month, we’ve got to talk about the most sacred site in Texas – the place that defines what it means to be a Texan more than any other. We’ll discuss the ultimate sacrifice and when it’s appropriate to make it; the long-disputed story of exactly how Davy Crockett died; the current state of the Alamo and how we have to make the best of an unfortunate situation; and my own dumbed-down version of the most famous moment in Texas history.

S4 E18 - Why Did I Do That?

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail We are creatures of habit aren't we? I found myself mindlessly doing a few things this week that made no sense - but I did them anyways simply because I was in the habit of doing them. It was monotonous - harmless, but clearly old habits die hard. Well, while these are harmless - if our worship becomes so routine that it is mindless and monotonous - that is dangerous. We must not only be engaged in worship, but have a mind, heart, and will that is equally engaged in worship as well. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

INDEPENDENCE, part 3: with Reagan McClenny and Terry Starling

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! We are wrapping up our conversation Reagan McClenny of the Timberland Drive church of Christ in Lufkin, and Terry Starling of the Grissom Road church of Christ in San Antonio. Links are in the show notes. We’ve discussed the pros and cons of the concept of independence. We conclude by discussing how we are not as independent from the world around us as we might thing, and how we can let that lift us up in our warfare instead of letting it tear us down.

Psalm 119:1-16

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

Psalm 119 This “is the longest psalm in the collection and the longest chapter in the Hebrew Bible, 176 verses or lines of poetry” Alter, 419. Its size has oft times discouraged serious study. Weiser in the Old Testament Library series views it as wearisome in its repetition of motifs and says it opens the door for legalism, but he offers no commentary on the text- Weiser, 739-741. “It is recited at the Feast of the Pentecost, the spring festival observed fifty days after Passover, which celebrates the giving of the Torah to Moses at Sinai during the wilderness wanderings” NICOT, 870. “The psa

I’m talking with a couple of Texas boys this week — Reagan McClenny of the Timberland Drive church of Christ in Lufkin, and Terry Starling of the Grissom Road church of Christ in San Antonio.
