Live To 100

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Question: Do you want to live to be 100? I feel like if you and I were chatting you might not give a resounding yes. We've seen a lot of disease and decay and death, and the idea of being here then might invoke a picture of sorrow and pain. But did you know there are people in their 90's and older still living rewarding and enjoyable lives? As you'll hear today, there are some great stories from Japan. But even here in Lindale, TX, there are several in their 90's still drawing joy out of active, service filled lives. Here

Episode 187 - "Surprise!"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

Be Bold in God's Salvation What should we take from Paul's positivity in prison? How do we connect our circumstances to our story and — through the eyes of faith — see that we're a part of God's great story? In our sixth episode Talking Through Ephesians, we celebrate the mystery now revealed in Christ, as Paul proclaims access to God for all the nations. Finding Jesus in this week's text, we imagine swimming in riches like Scrooge McDuck and enjoy our "freedom of speech" before God. And as fantasy football draft parties happen across the country, we're going in a different direction in this w

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! San Francisco is perhaps the most unique city in the United States, for better or for worse. Probably both. This week we will discuss the short and winding road, and how San Franciscans have turned it into a blessing instead of a problem; the disaster of 1906 and how humans’ best efforts made it far, far worse; Norton I, emperor of the United States, and his relationship with his subjects; and the bigger business you can build by sinking your existing business into San Francisco Bay. Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the

"Us" over "Me"

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! The ESM Podcast has largely been built for individual application and growth. For one thing, that's a whole lot easier to talk about and accomplish in comparison to collective behavior. You can change you. But changing others... that's a whole lot tougher. Changing the direction of an entire family, church, or culture... that seems impossible. But Scripture challenges us over and over again to think more societally. Even the story of Nehemiah was not about a guy who rebuilt his life. It was about a guy who left his life t

S3 E24 - Missing What Is Right In Front Of You

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail We're back after an extended break! We were in Oregon for almost three weeks, and most of the time we were there, my son Dane he kept saying how much he missed home. Well we finally got back home, and now he says how much he misses Oregon. Go figure - he couldn't wait for what was coming, and now he misses what was. Well...we can be the same way. But if we spend all of our time focused on the past or obsessing over the future, we will actually end up missing what is right in front of us. We need to be grateful and content in the present situations we find ourselves in, or else

Episode 186 - "It Depends"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

Draw Near to God What threatens church unity today? What do East Berlin and airline amenities have to do with the temple veil? And how does life in God’s presence change us? This week in session 5 of Talking Through Ephesians we explore the last half of chapter two. We walk through the story of the temple, from the garden to the tabernacle; and from Solomon to the church and the New Jerusalem. We find Jesus in the doorway, the corner, the mortar, and everywhere else in the house, and discuss what it means that “he himself is our peace.” Along the way we learn about God’s nearness and holiness,
