Revelation 14 John sees the Lamb standing on Mount Zion with 144,000 who have His name and the Father's name on their foreheads. They sing a new song before the throne that only they can learn, because they are faithful and pure.

This calls for patient enduran

SMILES: Why so serious? Shirley Temple. "Smile." Sushi Go!

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! So, it's the week of Christmas. And it's episode #350. I didn't plan to save the "Smiles" episode for a week like this, but now I'm glad I did. We'll discuss why smiles are so rare in the Bible and why you shouldn't worry about it; how the cutest little girl and the saddest "Little Tramp" in the history of Hollywood combined forces to drag us out of a national malaise; and how games in general, and one small game in particular, has brought smiles to our faces for years.

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks! Revelation 13 A beast emerges from the sea with ten horns and seven heads, receiving authority from the dragon. It speaks proud and blasphemous words and wages war against the saints for forty-two months. The world is amazed and follows the beast, worshiping both it and the dragon. Another beast comes from the earth, with two horns like a lamb but speaking like a dragon. It performs signs, deceives people, and tells them to make an image of the first beast. Those who refuse to worship the image are threatened with death.

Job 5:17-27

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

5:17 Behold, how happy is the man whom God reproves- Ps. 94:12; Prov. 3:11-12; 23:12, 23; Heb. 12:5-11; Rev. 3:19. How happy in 5:17 is the word translated blessed in Ps. 1:1. 5:18 For He inflicts pain, and gives relief- Deut. 32:39; I Sam. 2:6; Isa.19:22; 30:26; Hos. 6:1. Job 1:21; 2:10 Each of the speakers understood the sovereignty of God in the affairs of the world. He wounds, and His hands also heal- The friends never resort to Satan as the answer for human suffering. 5:19 From six troubles He will deliver you- The closest way to parallel a number is to give the next highest number.

Mini: Rescuing Philippians 4:13 | "It Takes ... Learning"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

263 | Find the Secret to Real Contentment Is Philippians 4:13 the ultimate spiritual cheat code for winning football games and acing math tests? In this Bible Geeks Mini, we’re rescuing one of the most famous verses in the Bible from the locker room and putting it back where it belongs. We explore why Paul wasn't looking for a "Sylvester Stallone-style" triumph, but rather the strength to endure prison with peace. We dive into the "secret of contentment" — learning to be okay whether we're full or hungry, rich or poor. It turns out the true power of this verse isn't about achieving our dreams,

The woman flees into the wilderness, where God prepares a place for her. A war breaks out in heaven, and Michael and his angels fight the dragon. The dragon is defeated and cast down to earth. H

S5 E39 - How To Reach Our Goals For 2026

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail I failed to reach many of my goals over this past year physically - and that was due to three reasons: setbacks, busyness, and lack of consistency. Oftentimes these same three reasons keep us from attaining our spiritual goals. We must not give up despite setbacks. We must never be too busy for God's work. And we must strive to be diligent to stay consistent in our efforts to grow. #SetYourMindAbovePodcast

And in this part of my conversation with Steve Wolfgang, we discuss the pros and cons of growth — and yes, there are cons. We all want the church to grow. But is a quick response a good response?

SUBTRACTION, with Steve Wolfgang

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! Steve Wolfgang is back, helping us with math lessons of sorts from God’s word. This part of our discussion relates to subtraction — the unfortunate but often necessary process of taking souls out of fellowship. When is it necessary? And how do we carry it out when it is? By the way, perhaps I should have mentioned it before, but Steve was struggling mightily with a sinus infection at the time of this recording; he would appreciate it if you would not hold his vocal quality against him.
