  • Focus on the Family with Jim Daly - How to Make Peace with What You Can’t Control (Part 1 of 2)

    You may not think of yourself as controlling. You’re just trying to protect the people you love and keep things from falling apart! Lysa TerKeurst reveals how fear can quietly drive our need for control, but how trusting God with the things we can’t fix can bring freedom and peace. You can’t control every outcome…but you can trust the One who can.

  • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - The Distant Cloud

    Listen to Today's Devotion

    The promises of God glitter like diamonds on the pages of Scripture. Will we gather them? Claim them? Delight in them? Pursue them? Elijah did. He prayed, not just once, but seven times!

    “Go and look toward the sea,” he told his servant. And he went up and looked. “There is nothing there,” he said. Seven times Elijah said, “Go back.” The seventh time the servant reported, “A cloud as small as a man’s hand is rising from the sea” (1 Kings 18:43-44). God’s answer came as a cloud the size of a hand, and that was enough to excite Elijah.

    Faith sees the distant cloud. Faith sees promises as though they were fulfilled. Can you see the hint of an answer to your prayer?

  • Take 2 Theology - The Unseen Realm 2.0 | Cosmic Vocabulary II: God’s Heavenly Court and the Watchers

    Season 3, Episode 5


    In this episode, Michael and Zach continue their “Cosmic Vocabulary” mini-series by moving from individual spiritual beings to the structure of the unseen realm. They explore biblical terms such as “sons of God,” “host of heaven,” “holy ones,” and elohim, showing how Scripture uses several overlapping categories for members of God’s heavenly court. The discussion also examines “the satan” as a title in Job, the spiritual “princes” of Daniel 10, Paul’s language of rulers and authorities, and the debated identity of the twenty-four elders in Revelation. From there, the episode turns to one of the most controversial categories in the series: the Watchers. Michael and Zach distinguish the three biblical references in Daniel from the much larger Watcher tradition found in 1 Enoch, Jubilees, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, explaining what these ancient texts can—and cannot—tell us about Genesis 6, fallen angels, and later Jewish interpretation. Throughout the episode, they carefully separate canonical teaching from historical background and speculation, while showing why this vocabulary matters for understanding the Bible’s supernatural worldview.

  • Be Still and Know Daily Bible Devotion - September 15th - Psalm 130:3-4
    Psalm 130:3-4
    If you, LORD, kept a record of sins, Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness, so that we can, with reverence, serve you.
    One day in 1738, John Wesley reluctantly attended a Christian meeting In Aldersgate Street, London. He was feeling thoroughly depressed, but during the meeting someone read from Martin Luther’s Preface to the letter of St Paul to the Romans and Wesley felt that his heart was “strangely warmed”. He saw this as the moment when he truly trusted in Christ alone. What is less well known is that, later that same day, Wesley went to St Paul’s Cathedral where he was deeply moved by this particular psalm. It perfectly expressed his experience of salvation through the forgiveness of his sins.
    The psalmist speaks of the completeness of God’s forgiveness. He doesn’t keep a record of our sins. They are wiped out. When someone has done you wrong, the hardest part is often to forget what has happened, but that’s what God does. He chooses to erase our sins completely from His memory.
    The psalmist knew that his life was totally distorted by sin. He couldn’t think of standing in God’s presence. But now the door was open to a new life in which he could confidently stand before God and serve Him. This message of forgiveness comes into sharpest focus in the New Testament because it was precisely why Jesus died upon the cross. Through Jesus taking the full weight of our sin upon Himself, He is able to offer us new life.
    Question
    How do you respond to the fact that God is willing to forgive and forget all your sins?
    Prayer
    Loving God, thank you for Your willingness to set me free from my sins. Amen
