Hello #TheJoshCast Fam, , welcome back to a brand new episode of season 2 of #TheJoshCast! We are so happy for all of you to listen to our new series, LOVE ❤️, Lust 👄 and Lies 😳!!! Here on #TheJoshCast we notice , Millennials are going on fewer dates, having less sex and marrying later. Do they know something about love that the rest of us don’t? Is the secret to lasting love to take it slow? As in really, really slow?The millennial generation is putting that theory to the test, opting for what the biological anthropologist Helen Fisher calls “slow love.” Studies show that millennials are dating less, having less sex and marrying much later than any generation before them, and a younger generation appears to be following in their footsteps.These changes have prompted hand-wringing among some experts who speculate that hookup culture, anxiety, screen time, social media and helicopter parents have left us with a generation incapable of intimacy and commitment. But Dr. Fisher takes a more generous view, and suggests that we could all learn a thing or two from millennials about the benefits of slow love. It’s not that millennials are wrecking marriage, she says. It may be that they value it more. Let’s join our host of the #TheJoshCast , Joshua Sherron . He is going explore this juicy topic of Millennial Love ❤️!

It's here—the coronavirus vaccine, the "light at the end of the tunnel" and the beginning of the end of this pandemic. With shots mailed out today from Kalamazoo, Michigan, public health experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci are hoping to eventually get at least "75 percent, 80 percent of the population vaccinated" for it to be effective. However, there is a subset of Americans that should not take the COVID vaccine, according to news released today by the Food and Drug Administration. many Americans consider lying to be more prevalent than in the past. 66% of Americans, in general, think they are lied to, at least, some of the time, up from 45% thirty years ago when USA Today asked the same question. The proportion of U.S. residents who currently think they are lied to includes 7% who say they are lied to all the time, 9% who believe they do not receive the whole truth most of the time, and 50% who think they are lied to some of the time. Currently, 33% of U.S. residents, down from 53% when USA Today measured this question in 1986, say they are seldom on the receiving end of a lie. Millions of Americans can be forgiven for not placing blind trust in federal and state government leaders and their health advisers, whose main tactic was to order Americans to surrender freedoms while an entire national economy was intentionally crashed, leading to the loss of millions of jobs and the accumulation of trillions of dollars (and counting) in additional debt. A Chinese virologist who has reportedly been in hiding over fear for her safety has stepped out into the public eye again to make the explosive claim that she has scientific evidence to prove that COVID-19 was human-made in a lab in China — despite American studies refuting the controversial claim.

Dr. Li-Meng Yan, a scientist who says she did some of the earliest research into COVID-19 last year, made the comments Friday during an interview on the British talk show “Loose Women.”

When asked where the deadly virus that has killed more than 900,000 around the globe comes from, Yan — speaking via video chat from a secret location — replied, “It comes from the lab — the lab in Wuhan and the lab is controlled by China’s government.”

There is a great dualism presented in this verse. In one phrase Isaiah points out that a child is born, but then he asserts that a son is given. Why say twice what appears to be essentially the same thing? Because the two are not the same, not in the least. On that first Christmas about 2,000 years ago, the child Jesus was born, but the Son is preexistent. The Son was not born, for He always has been and always will be. The child was born, but the Son was given. Yes, the child and the Son are One, but the terms used to describe Him are very different indeed.

A Child is born ... speaks of the Humanity of Christ.

A Son is given ... speaks of the Divinity of Christ.

A Child is born ... speaks of Impotence.

A Son is given ... speaks of Omnipotence.

A Child is born ... speaks of the Terrestrial.

A Son is given ... speaks of the Celestial.

A Child is born ... that speaks of the Earthly.

A Son is given ... speaks of the Heavenly.

A Child is born ... speaks of the Son of Man.

A Son is given... that speaks of the Son of God.

Isaiah caught the duality of Christ in simple, but profound words as he described the wonderful gift God was giving to the world - namely, His own Son. Just think of it, "Jesus had an earthly mother, but no earthly father. Jesus has a heavenly Father, but no heavenly mother." In essence, God's Son from heaven came to be born as a child here on earth for the express purpose of redeeming the lost race of humanity.

In this passage Isaiah speaks of four titles for the Son. If one reads the Bible carefully, he or she will discover that the Word of God contains more than 225 terms, names or titles for our Lord. Truly, His name is the name above every name. In this four part series, we are going to look at the four titles, which Isaiah gave to us in this passage, and relate them to our lives right now.

The four names are:

Wonderful Counselor

Mighty God

Everlasting Father, and

Prince of Peace

We begin today with the title Wonderful Counselor.

The name Counselor, and the adjective Wonderful, are filled with meaning - as we shall see. A counselor is one who gives advice, leads, or defends someone. But we must be careful to whom we turn for counsel. The story is told of two bums sitting together on a park bench. One of them said to the other, "I'm a man who never took advice from anybody." The other said, "Shake my hand, old buddy, for I'm the man who followed everybody's advice."

The problem for many people is they will not listen to words of wisdom. For others, they are listening to the wrong voices or they heed too many voices. Today we are going to consider listening to and following the Wonderful Counselor.

The number of people in the U.S. killed by Covid-19 could nearly double in the next several months despite a nationwide vaccine rollout, health researchers warn.

The U.S. is forecast to see a cumulative 539,000 deaths by April 1, according to a Dec. 4 report published by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington's School of Medicine. More than 279,000 people in the U.S. have died from the virus and more than 14.3 million have been infected, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

The country is expected to approve and begin distributing one or more vaccines as early as December. If ever there were a time when our eyes could be drawn away from Christ toward the waves of fear and doubt, right now is such a time! And if ever our trust could be fixed in the good intentions of our persistent efforts, right now is such a time.

Our safety as we see it is tied up with how consistently and thoroughly we wash our hands, how conscientiously we maintain our social distance, how deliberately we sequester ourselves from public life.

But that’s not where our safety comes from. That’s not how our health is maintained. Yes, each of these disciplines is important in a time of pandemic. And as we’ve stated, adhering to them is not just an exercise in self-protection; it’s how we best love one another.

But our faith is not fixed in these practices. They are not the ultimate means by which we’re kept safe.

There is one God in heaven Who is King and Lord of all. There is one God in heaven to Whom every entity in this universe is subject. Even the occasional virus that’s new to finite and vulnerable human beings has been known eternally by this great and glorious God! And we are His. He is our… Father. We are His image-bearing creatures. And He reigns over us. He has named us, each and all (15).

No virus will touch us unless He has given it permission. No virus will take us unless He has appointed it to do so. And if the washing of our hands and the keeping of our distance has resulted in our sustained health, it’s not because those practices are fool-proof. It’s because our God has purposed them as the means by which we’re being taught to walk by faith in Him, and the way in which He has willed to achieve His purpose in us.

Months have passed since Covid-19 disrupted our lives, and many of us long for normalcy again. We long for the familiar again. We long for the way it used to be again. Yet, if we are honest, we realize the way it used to be may never be again. And, even though we know the pandemic in which we find ourselves is temporary, sometimes it does not feel so temporary. Things have changed. Routines have changed. Normalcy has left us, and an unwelcomed, uninvited new normal has brazenly sashayed into our lives leaving us reeling from its unexpected blow.

Governments, in countries across the globe, have responded to this virus with great tenacity. Here, in the United States, our federal government has responded with social distance guidance, payroll protection programs, and stimulus checks, among other things. Governors and mayors in states and cities across the country have responded to this virus in a myriad of ways- some good and some perhaps not so good. But, what about us? How should we as people of faith respond to this invisible enemy? How should we as people of faith respond to this chaotic crisis that has wreaked havoc on our world, taken what we love, and those we love? What should our response be? Siblings in Christ, we find the answer to that question in God’s word. For God’s word lets us know that all the time and especially during this unprecedented time, we can have the peace of God in our lives. Our response is to not be anxious and to rest in the Peace of God.

Martin Luther said “To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.” Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon on the Mount tests us and challenges us at every turn. Jesus calls us to a life that is so breathtakingly beautiful, and yet at the same time so difficult to live out. Jesus isn’t satisfied with external behavior in the Sermon on the Mount, but he keeps digging into our hearts. As we said at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, righteousness isn’t simply a matter of outward behavior but it’s a matter of the heart. Asking is simply expressing your need to God. Ask, and you will receive. What a beautiful promise!

The word “seek” intensifies the process. We seek when we don’t know where something is. In seeking we understand that there is concentrated time and effort involved. So yes, prayer is asking, but it is not a hit and run. We spend time seeking God in prayer and in his word. Seeking is a process, and it doesn’t happen all at once.

On November 1st, 2020, Our Host of “The Josh Cast”, Joshua Sherron sat down with Bishop D. A. Sherron at his office in New York City for a life changing interview. D. A.

Let’s explore this amazing interview and listen to this conversation of two leaders in America!

On April 4, 1967, Dr.Martin Luther King Jr. stood and delivered this powerful at the Riverside church in New York City condemning The Vietnam War.

Declaring “My conscience leaves me no other choice.”

Dr.King told reporters on Face the Nation that as a Minister, He had a “Prophetic Function”.

In the speech He said

“We are Faced with the fact that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now.”

When Dr.King spoke these words , He reminded us “Fierce urgency of now”.

He reminded us that we need one another and that we are stronger as we March together and work together to build and do God’s will. As we do God’s will, there Is an urgency of Now. Let’s go to this named Nehemiah who had a mindset on “The Urgency of Now.” The book of Nehemiah shows the fulfillment of the prophecies of Zechariah and Daniel concerning the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s walls.

It is easy to analyze, scrutinize, and talk about the problems in the world.

But we need people who will not just discuss a bad situation, but will do something about it .

Nehemiah saw a problem and was distressed.

Instead of wallowing in self pity and grief , He took action.

Nehemiah knew that God wanted him to movirvate the Jews to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls , so He left a responsible position in the Persian government to do what God wanted. Nehemiah knew God could use His skills and talents to get the job done. From the moment He arrived in Jerusalem everyone Knew He was in charge. He organized, managed, supervised, helped, encouraged , met opposition, confronted injustice, and kept going until the walls were built. Nehemiah was a man of action and vision.

In 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Once said “ Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” 50 years later we are seeing an injustice carried out in America with the wrongful killing and cowardly murder to our daughter and sister Breonna Taylor . 3 Cowardly police officers murdered Breonna Taylor . EMT and aspiring nurse Breonna Taylor, 26, was shot to death by police in her own home on March 13. In what has been described as a “botched raid,” officers barged into Taylor’s apartment in Louisville, Kentucky, as she lay sleeping, and fired multiple rounds. Months after she was senselessly killed, Taylor’s name has been chanted all over the country at mass protests against racist police brutality, which erupted after the death of Minneapolis resident George Floyd, also at the hands of police. On September 23 — over six months after Taylor was killed — just one of the officers involved in the shooting was indicted by a grand jury. Officer Brett Hankison faces three charges of wanton endangerment, a class D felony that carries a penalty of one to five years in prison. Five days later, amid outrage over the decision, one member of that grand jury asked that the proceedings be made public, “so that the truth may prevail.”Taylor was shot eight times by law enforcement. According to a lawsuit filed by her family, her killing was the result of a botched drug-warrant execution. No drugs were found; the warrant in question targeted another person, who lived miles away and had already been detained by the time police entered Taylor’s home. This is WRONG and let’s explore why this is WRONG!
