  • The ONLY Way Forward - Part 4

    Send us Fan Mail

    Today's episode goes into the Spiritual Leadership of the New Covenant found in chapters 7 and 8 of Hebrews.  Matthew gets right into it as these are a little bit longer and require a more sensitive touch.

    Do you want substance?  If you're looking for some Divine Wisdom with a side of everything else that MATTERS MOST in life, this
    is indubitably the most important episode you'll ever listen to.

    'The Technical Position of Jesus Christ is what we're going to detail here.. and this is stuff you'll likely never hear from your local congregational pulpit.. (unfortunately :/) It's just the truth.. a lot of ministers don't get into this stuff for all kinds of reasons.. but it is important..  Here is your NEW COVENANT! :)

    Enjoy!'

    Love and Shalom Shalom!
    Matthew

    Primetime episode drop?  Sure thing!

    In this episode, Matthew breaks down chapters 4 and 5 of Hebrews with great depth, clarifying the more confusing material throughout its pages..  These things are spoken of as 'difficult to understand', but if you'll take the time to listen closely, he'll break it down in a very concise and discernable way.

    'I love you all so much and thank you for being here..  We've got a lot of longtime listeners who remain faithful, and while we don't know who you are, you inspire us greatly!  THANK YOU MY WIFE!  Special thanks to Mom and Dad!' :D

    Love and Shalom Shalom,

    In this finale episode of the series, Matthew discusses his morning and how things ended unexpectedly before sitting down to make this for us all!

    He discusses Purim more thoroughly after reading chapter 9 of Esther, and then reads chapter 10, wrapping the book with a blessing!

    In closing prayer, he focuses on the 'Great Commission' of Matthew 28, calling on The Lord to cause people to understand their own personal calling in Christ..

    'We've all got a part to play, and each one of us is uniquely capable of handling exactly what God has for us.  It's such a pleasure and an honor to be doing this edifying work.. and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to listen!  Most importantly, LISTEN TO THE LORD.. and what He's called you to do.  We're all in this together..  GOD BLESS!'

    Love and Shalom Shalom!

    Thanks for joining us!

    Today's episode continues our journey through the Book of Esther, with chapter 8.  Firstly, Matthew describes a devious act that must be from Satan..  Everything now wiped from his tablet, he talks about these bittersweet lives we all live, and the perspective we should share.

    'I am going to continue living a life of contentment and avoid complaining - and I hope you will too!.. for we should all keep our eyes on the prize!  Focus on the sweet.  Glance at the bitter.. but always focus on the sweet!'

    Love and Shalom Shalom!

    Please, if I could have a moment..

    #WhenEarthStoodStill is my idea of remembrance for everybody sharing their thoughts about 9/11 on this 25th Anniversary of that fateful day.  I hope we'll have greater lucidity about that day, and through this we can remember the victims more thoroughly as we're all truly transported back to that moment.. when Earth stood still.

    I'll start.  Then you go.  

    I was at East Junior High in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin..

    The school had recently placed new televisions in every classroom, with cable hooked up.  Strange timing.. because then, this craziness happened.. and the school day was canceled.. all we did for the rest of each class was watch the news.. I remember reporters pondering whether it was an accident.. that a pilot could run a plane into a massive tower like that.. 'these idiots..' I thought.. I knew exactly what this was.. and I WAS SO MAD!  ..then we all watched as the second plane hit..  'JESUS!  WHAT IS HAPPENING!?'

    What do I do?  'I'm not old enough to fight.. but I want to!'

    It took four years, but I finally got my chance.. on the four year anniversary, 9/11/2005 I shipped out to San Antonio, TX to Lackland AFB for Basic Training in the US Air Force.  I would probably not have joined the military if it weren't for all those people who lost their lives on that tragic day.

    It's been one wild experience after another since.. and I just hope and pray we all unite a bit more, love a bit more, stand up for what's RIGHT a bit more.. because we remember..

    Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.  We remember 9/11 - and more importantly, we remember all the lives lost on that day and in subsequent retaliatory conflicts..  May your memories be a blessing.

    #WhenEarthStoodStill

    I hope you all will take time to look at the drone show that was put on display at the site of the Twin Towers!  This is a skyline that hasn’t been seen in 25 years and yet it was revived with the same amount of drone lights as the amount of victims that were taken on that day.  

    Please be sure to check it out.

    Love and Shalom Shalom!
