John Stott shows the primary purpose of prayer is not to just request things for ourselves and our loved ones, but to have the glory and purposes of God first and foremost in mind. He explains Pharasaical prayer, pagen prayer and Christian prayer.

Matthew Grech sent shockwaves across the entertainment world after renouncing his place in the progressive 'LGBT community' and choosing to instead reform his life, commit himself to chastity, and follow Christ. However, speaking the truth about the LGBT agenda drew the wrath of the Maltese government, crushing anyone who dares speak against the LGBT agenda and instead proclaim truth about God's plan for marriage.

God’s work of salvation is all of grace and cannot be earned. It’s received by grace alone through faith alone. In this episode of ‘Light + Truth,’ that’s John Piper’s focus from Romans 1:5.

All of Grace

What makes the gospel the best news any person could ever hear? In this episode of ‘Light + Truth,’ that’s the question John Piper answers from Romans 1:1–4.

All About the Son

Light + Truth

Perfect Love

How to Have Confidence

Chuck Obremski's great desire to share God’s gospel message to a fallen world was as evident from the time he accepted Christ in 1978, as it was the day that God welcomed him "home" at the end of a two year battle with cancer at the age of 48. We are honored to be able to share in his passion and desire to spread God's word through his audio messages. In loving memory of my husband, a son, our dad, papa, pastor, friend and mentor. Dec.17, 1956 - Sept.18, 2005

My chat with Callie Daruk is positively gripping. She doesn't mince words and goes straight to the heart of the matter: she admits that she was a woman who hypocritically professed God with her mouth, but in her heart she was far from Him (Isa. 29:13)--this is ultimately what brought her to her knees. Callie shares the heart wrenching saga of parenting children with special needs. Her conclusion and word for you is to KNOW God, really know Him.

Callie Daruk is an award-winning author and speaker who encourages others to seek Christ with their whole heart. She serves as the Chapter President of Word Weavers Int., Robertson County. Her writing has appeared in Guideposts, The Upper Room, Focus on the Family, Kids Clubhouse, Charisma, Just 18 Summers, and Nashville Christian Voice magazines.

About her devotional book, <a href="Death will come certainly but it may come suddenly. Through her own struggle to find purpose, author Callie Daruk opens our eyes to the importance and urgency of fulfilling our callings. Her thought-provoking reflections cause you to look into your own heart and stir you to ask for yourself the question we should all be asking, What Does God Want You to do Before You Die? It's time to take a long hard look at ourselves. Have we as Christians asked what it is we're supposed to be doing with our lives? Have we accomplished what we've set out to accomplish?

Choose 2 Think™

We can't promise this conversation will be better than LAST week's, but ...welcome to the table anyway!
Emmi is wearing a lot of hats, and The Peaches is going to her dance class soon.   (Oops, sorry, we mean "rhymic movement.")
Let's talk about Legalism!  First--we give a brief history of things that would get you reprimanded by Church People 40 years ago. (Cards, alcohol-consumption, and dancing!)  The anti-dancing crowd will say it's important to "avoid the appearance of evil."  And, to that, a ready reply should be: "True! So why don't you stop appearing to be such a Pharisee???"    This is known as Good Rhetoric.
Later, The Peaches makes an excellent transition to discussing the NEW Legalism: Internet Karens who say all disciplinary spanking is abusive.
Nobody wants to be a Pharisee.  So--Christians need to use this fact to their rhetorical advantage.  In other words, we need to get better at framing the anti-spank Pharisees as judgmental jerks.  If you're looking for an example of an actual social media exchange with a Pearl-Clutching Karen who doesn't love her kids enough to spank them, we've got you covered!  Visit Kendra Tierney's blog, Catholic All Year, if you want great advice from an experience mom who spanks her kids with great results.
Email us at nextdoor@johnbranyan.com -- and visit the website (johnbranyan.com) for information about going on vacation with us!   Vacay with Comics, 2023.  It's gonna be great.

Don't Play Cards or Spank Your Kids (Eucharist)

John has been feeling weird and bad and dumb.  That's his way of describing his anxiety attacks which popped up this week out of nowhere.  Maybe he needs to do a Brain Dump! (Trademark: Mystie Winckler.)
But...wait, why is Luke wearing a bathrobe? 
 
Anyway, this family knows how to throw some REALLY "dood" parties!  But we wouldn't be able to juggle all of those planning details if we didn't have a concrete plan.  Don't try to memorize your to do list, Pkarlgh!  (A loaf of bread, a container of milk, and a stick of butter.)  That's a terrible use of brain power.
Write it down, and then you can free up space for problem-solving...
Next:  John thinks memorizing the alphabet is stupid.  Total waste of time.  Please feel free to weigh in, Pkarlgh.
Later: The Peaches has a new BFF! You should follow Brooks Gibbs on social media. He is a psychologist who teaches kids to be mentally resilient, rather than trying to rid the world of bullies.  His advice isn't only appropriate for children in schools... He also may have some things to teach grown-ups who are struggling with anxiety.

Good comedy reflects real life. The people in my daily life are NOT professional comedians. They're ordinary people and they're FANTASTIC. Sometimes I turn on my recorder and just capture our conversations. Unedited, chaotic and unscripted. This is my Comedy Sojourn.

John Branyan's Comedy Sojourn Podcast

As I come to these studies in Second Corinthians, I am impressed anew that our times are getting more and more "Corinthian"; we are approaching the very level of life that the Apostle Paul found in that city. These letters therefore speak very eloquently of our times.

The Ecstasy and the Agony  (2 Corinthians 12:1-10)

This morning we reach those dramatic two words, "The End." We have come to the last of our studies in Second Corinthians and this concludes our series on the Corinthian Epistles. I am scheduled to speak next Sunday, but I am going to speak on another subject. I am going to address the subject, "Are We In The Last Days?" Many people are asking that question, so bring your survival kit with you and we will head for the hills right after the meeting is ended!

Who am I -- Really?  (2 Corinthians 13:5-14)

Reading through Paul's second letter to the church at Corinth makes you aware that this is the most personal and emotional of all his letters. It throbs with a sense of the glories of God's grace.

Visiting Corinth on my recent trip was a moving experience for me. There is very little left standing of the original city -- it was destroyed by the Romans shortly after Paul's visit there and has been lying in ruins ever since. Certain temple columns remain, though. as well as the market place and other public areas of the city. They can be clearly discerned, and the actual pavement of the judgment hall of the Roman proconsul is well preserved.

It wasn't hard for me to imagine the Apostle Paul as he came down from Athens into this city which was at the time a center of pleasure, a great commercial city and a city of great beauty, with many, many temples. It had gained a reputation as the center of lascivious worship -- the worship of the Goddess of Love. There were some 10,000 prostitutes attached to the temple of Aphrodite and the city lived up, or perhaps I should say, down, to its reputation as a place of sensual pleasure. It represented a sex-saturated society. You can see indications of this in Paul's letters to the church there. It was easy to imagine the apostle arriving in the dust of the road unknown and unheralded a simple tentmaker by all appearance. Finding two people of the same trade, Aquila and Priscilla, he lived and worked with them, and preached up and down the city streets and in the market places and synagogues. Thus God used him to lay the foundations of the church at Corinth.

2 Corinthians: authentic Christianity

Jesus' body returns to life and He appears before multiple witnesses.

Lesson 20

Serving Christ in His absence means experiencing success in His place and receiving persection in His place.

Lesson 16

Few books of the Bible command as much respect and generate so much adoration as does the Gospel of John. Of the four books in the Bible dedicated to chronicling Jesus' life and death, John's account is unique in content, form and purpose. John approached his Gospel with an intent to illustrate the meaning of Jesus' ministry on earth rather than strictly relating the events of His life. Each chapter is a window into Jesus' earthly ministry illustrating how the Lord fulfilled various spiritual pictures of the Messiah found in Old Testament texts, including the spiritual messages of Creation, birth, water, bread, sight, Sabbath and more. Not only do we learn about our Lord's life on earth, but we also discover new spiritual importance in familiar Old Testament stories. Pastor Armstrong teaches this year-long study through John's Gospel in his notable in-depth, insightful style. Join us for one of the most important studies any Bible student can undertake.

The Gospel of John

Jesus is approached by a senior religious figure and teacher - Nicodemus. But he discovers that the gospel of grace is more wonderfully scandalous than he could have imagined.

NB BAD SOUND QUALITY

3. The Gospel: LOVE FOR THE UNLOVELY (John 3:1-21)

An overview of some of the key objections to trusting the reliability of John's witness to Christ's ministry - as well as some suggestions for how to answer them.

A survey of the Historical Reliability of John's Gospel

Seminar: Can We Trust John's Gospel?

These talks were first given at CORNERSTONE 2010 (The All Souls Church, Langham Place Week Away) held in Bath in August 2010.
These talks sought to give a sense of the whole of John's gospel by taking his Prologue (John 1:1-18) and his Gospel Summary Statement (John 20:30-31) as bookends - and then seeing how they get worked out in the course of the book's big themes.
1. The Beginning: THE WORD OF LIFE (John 1:1-18 - The Prologue)
2. The Revelation: SIGNS OF GOD (John 8:31-59 - Before Abraham... )
3. The Gospel: LOVE FOR THE UNLOVELY (John 3:1-21 - The Religious Teacher Learns A Lesson)
4. The Battle: LIGHT vs DARKNESS (John 9 - A Blind Man Sees Again)
5. The Family: LIFE ON THE VINE (John 13:1-17 - A Community of Love)
6. ALL-AGE TALK - The Privilege: BELIEVE & LIVE! (John 20:24-31 - The Doubter Confesses)
Seminar: CAN WE TRUST JOHN'S GOSPEL?


NB Sound quality is variable - especially on Talk 3 and the All-Age Talk (no 6) - otherwise all should be fine.
