Something good. Something holy. Something God intends for you, for your good and others. How ma

Psalm 71

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

In this psalm the writer calls out for deliverance from his distress and praises God for deliverance. The petition and complaint section of Psalm 71 are vss. 1-4, 9-13, 18, and the statements of trust and praise are in vss. 5-8, 14-17, 19, 24. God's righteousness is emphasized in the Psalm- 71:2, 15, 16, 19, 24. The words "continually" in vs. 3, 6, 14 and "all day long" in vs. 8, 15, 22 are a couple of the key words and phrases throughout the Psalm.

Episode 161 - "The Loud Type of Friend"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

Strengthen the Bonds of Friendship What’s the difference between valuing someone and having a friendship with them? How does humor lighten our load? And what does the old metaphor of “investing” in someone like a bank account teach us about the “brother born for adversity”? We go Finding Jesus in third John and also find how much that short book tells us about good friends. And from communicating without a word to late night conversations, we count down some of our Favorite Things about friendship. It’s session 8 of What’s Good, and all the resources are at Bible geeks.fm/good. The Big Idea: T

ARE Bible Study - Ecclesiastes Chapter 2: Common Dead Ends

The Daily Answer

There is indeed nothing new under the sun (chapter 1), including all false promises of happiness. Learn from Solomon, so you don’t have to waste a good portion of your life on what cannot make you happy. And don’t place false hope in “living through your children,” for they may be fools. Ultimately, it is impossible to truly enjoy life apart from God. Without God, you will just be a short-lived gatherer and collector.

LYING: All liars. Jordan Peterson, rule 8. Politicians. I Doubt It.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! Lying is bad. Everyone knows that. And yet most of us do it. Is that just the way things are? Or can we hold ourselves to a higher standard? This week we will discuss how the Bible makes heroes out of liars and yet condemns all liars to hell; Jordan Peterson’s thoughts on the lies we tell others and ourselves; the liars we elect and re-elect, and how we can be part of the solution — or at least stop being part of the problem; and whether getting the win by lying makes the lying better or worse. Hal Hammons is the preacher for the Lakew

Crying "LORD, Help!"

Kris Emerson · Excel Still More

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Today it is my pleasure to read Psalm 107 for you in the New Living Translation. (I'll explain why). Four times the text says "LORD, help!" - These represent four situations in life where people get discouraged. So often our hope and faith flourish in blessings, but when trials come, we falter. This can often prove that our joy is based more on ourselves and our circumstances, than the enduring goodness of God. Let's investigate different trials you might face this year. Some of this may be raging in your life right. Cryi

Episode 160 - "Your Family Versus Mine"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

Feel the Fulfillment of a Fruitful Family How does God provide for us through our loved ones? What does Ruth teach us about prayer? And how do our familial roles change as we get older? This week, in session 7 of our What’s Good study, we appreciate God’s gift of family, from blessings like our moms and kids to our brothers and sisters in Christ. What Jesus Said about honoring parents in Matthew 15:3-6 leaves us thinking about the false dichotomies and how serving God leads us to serve our families. Flying Through the book of Ruth, we see a picture of family lost and restored as folks find the

ARE Bible Study - Ecclesiastes Chapter 1: Welcome to the Treadmill

The Daily Answer

What a startling statement, “All is vanity.” (1:2) Yet by the end of the book, we are told that everything matters. (12:13-14) So how do we get from nothing matters to everything matters? Strap on your seatbelts as we enter a wild ride with the Preacher, who spares no punches. Included will be the truth, and nature is not as free as it looks, man cannot fix everything, and technology and education will not save us. Rather, they come with their own headaches.
