S3 E11 - Waiting For Your Tax Return

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail We absolutely expected to owe on taxes this year, but much to our surpise we got a refund! Or, we're getting a refund, rather. It's not here it. It's been promised, but yet to be fully realized by being placed into our account. So until then, we wait. Well...our savlation works much the same way. Are we saved? Well, yes and no. We have been cleansed from sin, but we anxiously await the promise of our hope in heaven that has not yet been realized. We know it's coming, but until then, we just have to wait. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

SEQUELS: Biblical sequels. "Unshackling America." Indiana Jones. Machi Koro 2.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! Sequels are a mixed bag. Sometimes they celebrate or even improve upon the original. Sometimes they make us wish someone had just left well enough alone. This week we will discuss the purpose of sequels in the Bible and how we can make the most of them; the war we fought because we didn’t fight the previous one well enough; the upcoming Indiana Jones film and why I’m nervous about it; and the board game sequel that improved our gaming experience by robbing me of victories. Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods D

Just "Do Something"

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Sam Bennett is a collegiate golfer from Texas A&M. He made an amazing showing at the Masters tournament recently. But his tattoo got as much attention as his golf game. He lost his father two years ago and had his father's last written words identically tattooed on his arm. The message is powerful and needful for us all. It can be so easy to do nothing. We do nothing out of fear. We do nothing out of a lack of self belief. Often we may do nothing as a result of a weaker faith than we'd like to admit. Jesus didn't teach a

Jeff O'Rear · Bible Geeks Podcast

Appreciate Biblical People of Faith And we have a winner!

S3 E10 - Clay Pots & Bird Nests

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail We mounted some clay pots on our back patio to plant herbs in for the spring. There is just one problem, the birds got to them first. So instead of growing herbs, we will now be playing host to the hatching of baby birds in nests they have made in two of our pots. Well...as I watched these birds, it reminded me of Jesus' reassuring words in the sermon on the mount. Here I watched these little creatures day in and day out find food and shelter, which God constantly provides. We are of so much more value - so won't God also care for us? So long as we seek his kingdom first, the

Psalm 79

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

This psalm contains lamentation (79:1-5), imprecation (or curses) (79:6-7, 10b, 12), pleas for mercy (79:8-10a, 11), and thanksgiving and praise (79:13). The events of 587 BC were devastating to Jerusalem. Abraham was promised the land of Canaan and they were ripped off of it and taken into captivity. David was promised a king from his line to sit upon his throne and this king was removed. Solomon built the temple and the temple was destroyed. The Psalm is very similar to Psalms 44, 74, and 137. There is no darker time than this in the OT for God's people. However, remarkably the Psalm will en
