"Offend" - Mono

Adam Shanks · Preach Impediments

Another way we struggle with offending others is by fixing it once it becomes a problem. There are two ways to fix offenses, and we discuss them both on this episode.

Psalm 60

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

This Psalm has a lengthy heading which ties in to David and Joab's conflicts with Edom recorded in II Sam. 8:13-14; I Chron. 18:12-13; and I Kings 11:15-16. This most closely fits a national lament mourning a defeat in battle. Verses 5-12 are largely repeated in 108:6-13. 60:1-3 uses several verbs that stress God's hand in this crisis. 60:5 but the people are God's beloved 60:6-8 God has divided out the land among His people and He has promised to conquer Israel's foes 60:9-12 They beg God's help and aid in their conflict with Edom because only He can deliver and save. In the end they express

ARE Bible Q & A

The Daily Answer

ARE Bible Study - The Christian and Civil Government

The Daily Answer

Ephesians 1:21 tells us that Jesus is “far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named….” Does this mean we are not to submit to the civil governments of this world? How do we as Christians balance our loyalties? Should we get involved in politics? Should we support one party over another? Should we submit to civil authority even if it contradicts God’s word? Can politics be a part of our evangelism? Thankfully, God gives us direction in His word about our duty as citizens under earthly authority.

S2 E56 - Getting Things Ready

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail We are about three weeks away from baby time, and we have been working hard to get things ready. Some things aren't as fun to get ready like all the laundry, cleaning, etc. But getting her room ready? That has been a joy. We've been working hard to get a place ready for her, and even though she won't understand what's waiting for her or appreciate what we've done, we do it because we love her and this will be her home. Well...isn't that the journey ahead for all of us Christians? Jesus has gone to prepare a place for us. We cannot begin to imagine what heaven will be like, or

STAY-CATION: Salt of the earth. "42 Faith." Restaurant reviews. Cape May.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! Can you get away from it all without going anywhere? Tracie and I decided to give it a try this summer. We did some research on area restaurants, ordered a big batch of new board games, and settled in for two days of rest and relaxation. Long story short, I recommend it. In this somewhat different episode we will discuss the sermon I put together on half a week’s work; the book I was saving for later but seems to fit here; the faith I place in online reviews, and whether that faith is warranted; and the hour-long trip to New Jersey tha

Kindness is Powerful

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Everybody knows that love is the most crucial spirit of God needed today. No one denies its's intense value. But kindness deserves some attention as well. In fact, you might categorize being kind as the way you express love in a transaction, interpersonal way. Kindness, from tiny little choices, to deep conversations, proves love. It shares love with others. Kindness is love. In that way, kindness is extremely powerful. It changes outcomes from a near fender bender to a 40 year marriage. Today's episode explores the defin

S2 E55 - Thank God for God's People

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail I've got good news and bad news. The bad news is: my wife, who is 32 weeks pregnant, contracted covid & has been really miserable. The good news? God's people have overwhelmed us with love. I don't know how people make it in this life without the church, I know I sure couldn't. And it's not just us, our church family does this for so many time and time again. Well...that's the way it should be. God has designed his people to be those that have been changed from the inside out by the love of God. They should love, not to receive anything in return, but because they cannot help

"Inspiration" - Cloyce Sutton II

Adam Shanks · Preach Impediments

Cloyce Sutton joins me on today's episode to discuss the idea of inspiration, and we dig deep into how it works when some scriptures seem so personal, not as if they come from God. Inspiration is important because it is part of the basis of our faith.

ESCAPE: The consuming fire. "Catch Me If You Can." "Escape (The Pina Colada Song)." Escape rooms.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! Maybe it’s the fact that I am fresh off a short “stay-cation” with Tracie, an experience I’ll likely discuss in a later podcast. In any case this week I’m in the mood to talk about the pros and cons of getting away from it all. We’ll talk about the folly of attempts to escape from an angry God; the problems that come with getting away with your crimes; one of the most annoying songs I know, both musically and philosophically; and a real-world adventure that turned out to be considerably less than that. Hal Hammons is the preacher for t

Start With Jesus

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Jesus has earned the right to be first in every single thing. He should be first in our hearts every morning, the first Person we consider, and the King we seek to follow and honor and love in all that we do. To the extent that we do that, our lives are infused with purpose and peace and steeped in His amazing promises. But if you are like me, not every day is like that. We can go long stretches with Jesus on the side. Maybe we aren't praying much, reading much, or saying his name in the world in which we live. But it is
