Beside Still Waters

You are Sacred to God!

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 16:04:14 -0300

We live in a multicultural, polytheistic world where beliefs affecting life quality, opinions about the afterlife, and the nature and workings of God are as varied as sunsets are unique. Yet, there remains a deep uncertainty about the veracity of these claims.

Amid this landscape, Jesus Christ—the Lord—commands the attention of the world through His extraordinary life, His sacrificial death, and His exclusive resurrection. By His achievement, we are not left without direction or hope; rather, we are graciously given access and opportunity to experience God’s exclusive, life-changing love and grace.

Living "Prepared" for Jesus' Return

Sat, 09 Aug 2025 16:54:11 -0300

"End Times" chatter fills social media. The pundits and "experts" are hyper-focused on political events, natural disasters, declining cultural norms, etc. There is a dearth of biblical & spiritual guidance of readiness for Jesus second coming and how to live so as to please God. This podcast reduces this critical need to its bare essentials, with guaranteed results.

The Open Door to Life

Tue, 29 Jul 2025 10:36:03 -0300

The 'Return of Jesus' is on the horizon. The salient question before us is: How should I live? What matters should occupy my focus?

That truth is our inclusion in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus

There are well-meaning Christians wondering what's next? Are we nearing the end? Many are concerned, wondering if we are approaching earth's final days. Will the church enter those fin final 7 years of distress? Who will be left behind?

Christ's Return - The Air or The Earth?

Sun, 01 Dec 2024 14:29:51 -0400

The Christian community is confused about Jesus Christ's Second coming, the second-greatest prophetic event. Questions abound - Why gather Christians in the air?

Christ's Second Coming on the Horizon

As of October 2024, there should be no doubt we are in "The Last Days". Economic , social, and personal uncertainty are at record levels. Individuals and families are questioning their survivability in navigating societal challenges. Many are experiencing a heightened sense of 'helplessness' in formulating a favorable response plan.

Wed, 04 Sep 2024 20:10:29 -0300

The world has fast become a cauldron of tension:

Christ in You: No Wrath, No Vengeance

Sat, 22 Jun 2024 17:14:59 -0300

The Abigail - David encounter in 1 Samuel 25 is a textbook model of being used of God to help (a believer) remain in the will of God.

David, after being a victim of a wrath-triggering experience, was skillfully moved by this woman to remain in God's will as it pertained to his life and service.

Christ, the Christian's Inner Character Part 2

Sun, 09 Jun 2024 13:23:30 -0300

Christ is the Christian’s character. Are we constrained to have stunted spiritual growth - being the same as we were a month ago, a year ago? Five years ago? No! Character is malleable. God wants us to grow, the Spirit compels growth, and we should never settle for ”just enough”. ”Be filled with the Spirit” is the divine mandate.

Christ, the Christian's Inner Character (Part 1)

Thu, 23 May 2024 15:07:17 -0300

Christ is the Christian's character. We are not constrained to have stunted spiritual growth - being the same as we were a month ago, a year ago? Five years ago? No! Character is malleable.

God Has Limits

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 11:11:49 -0300

As the "Days of Noah" have arrived, we are to be ready for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ. For the Christian, it portends glory! For the remaining souls, certain judgment. Live ready. . .

As It Was In the Days of Noah

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 10:28:57 -0300

We are in "The Last Days". This is not subject to debate. Pandemics, societal anarchy, new social-relational aberrations, upsurge of 'New Age' religious practices, unbounded immorality, biblical spiritual decline . . . Jesus, the Christ, was clear in his warning that "as it was in the day of Noah, so also shall be the coming of the Son of Man . . . until the day on which Noah entered the ark" (Mt. 24:37-39). This podcast is an exhortation for Christians to live in readiness for that day.

Influence with God - Impact with mankind

Sat, 24 Feb 2024 09:08:19 -0400

The critical truth showing how God is influenced to be strong on your behalf and impact mankind was given by Jesus, the Christ in Mathew's Gospel, 17:14-21. He identified prayer and fasting as the only to make a Christian influential for the kingdom God, man's good, and holy in a pagan world.

The "Prize" in an All Out Pursuit of God?

Thu, 25 Jan 2024 17:40:06 -0400

People often ask me: "What do I gain if I pursue God with all I've got?" The greatest prize, gift, benefit, or outcome . . . is God Himself

Is Pleasing God Impossible?

Sun, 24 Dec 2023 08:48:16 -0400

Is pleasing God an impossible task? It is written, ". . . without faith, it is impossible to please Him (God) for he that comes to God must believe that He is . . .". Pleasing God begins with a clear acknowledgment that He exists, and He awaits the evidence of a willing, obedient life.

Touch the Invisible

Fri, 03 Nov 2023 13:37:25 -0300

The exercise of faith is not distinct from developing an upright, holy character. Connection with God - the ability to "touch the hand of God" in one's life experience is predicated on having a character standing before God that is God-approved.

Finding God’s Presence in Life Storms

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 23:50:29 -0300

A Changed Life

Sat, 01 Jul 2023 15:39:28 -0300

What good is a "belief" if it does not result in a "Life and Lip" Transformation? It is a dead faith, a life-less dogma. The Christian's mandate is to validate in word as well as deed that there is available grace to live an extraordinary life.

Grace! Deliverance from Law and Law Keeping.

Wed, 31 May 2023 23:17:11 -0300

The grace of God is the Christian's "enabling power," making deliverance from sin's penalty and power a reality. There is no power in any person or any method that can deliver from the power of sin apart from the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Absolute Guarantee of Sins Forgiven

Tue, 02 May 2023 00:12:55 -0300

The Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus are the two significant events guaranteeing a repentant human being that ALL their sins are expiated, having trusted in Christ as Savior. God gives two pieces of evidence that continually remind and assures the Christian that "it is well with my soul."

The Crucified & Resurrected LIfe of the Believer

Sat, 08 Apr 2023 22:47:33 -0300

The second most excellent gift of the new birth life is not only the gift of eternal life but the resurrection-life of the Lord Jesus Christ in our mortal bodies. Paul wrote: I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ lives in me!

Resurrection Life In The Believer

Sun, 19 Mar 2023 20:51:27 -0300

God, who raised Christ from the dead, now lives in us to impart resurrection life by the same power utilized to raise Jesus from the dead. Our Lord Jesus offered Himself spotless by the Eternal Spirit to execute a mighty deliverance. He will, by His Spirit, enliven our mortal bodies to perform His service and, by the same Spirit, empower us to crucify our old fallen nature.

Praying Effectively

Sun, 12 Feb 2023 13:42:37 -0400

Praying effectively is seeking God's intervention in all of our matters with the full assurance that the petitions we desire are granted, as requested, in a timely way, with clear evidence that it was the will of God, and performed to the glory of God. This always results in complete joy!

The Paradox of Choice

Tue, 24 Jan 2023 22:34:59 -0400

Freedom of choice when addressing moral issues creates conundrums because we are exercised to eliminate the risks while capitalizing on personal benefit. Choosing the "self-interest" options frequently results in loss to another. How do we choose a course of action that is mutually beneficial and glorifying to God? The answer may surprise you.

Back to God from the ”Broad way”

Tue, 10 Jan 2023 19:44:48 -0400

God’s Providence in Answering Prayer vs The Law of Attraction

Thu, 22 Dec 2022 23:29:33 -0400

Is there merit to this philosophy? This podcast examines the core beliefs contrasted: Answered prayer in response to seeking God's presence juxtaposed to the adherence to the Law of Attraction

The Peril of Forgetfulness

Tue, 06 Dec 2022 12:05:22 -0400

Just as there are learning models that categorize the stages people pass through in skills development, so too in spiritual development. Christians pass from infancy - needing the "milk" of the word to maturity - actively walking in the Spirit. There is corresponding conduct that flows from each stage of development, hence the need to pursue Christlikeness.

In His Presence

Tue, 22 Nov 2022 16:41:12 -0400

God's Presence is the "Jewel" of the spiritual life! Yet, God uses "impossible" crises, driving us into his presence, so we might experience his ability to do exceedingly above all we could ever ask. By His grace, embrace the trial as a divinely ordained circumstance for good and for a blessing!

Covenant of Terror: When God Take You to Court for Breach of Contract

Tue, 01 Nov 2022 15:42:00 -0300

Eternal life; Faith in God; Being holy as He is holy; Loving the brotherhood. All imply a “covenant relationship.” If believers breach the covenant terms they made with God, what recourse does the Almighty have?

God’s Terror

Mon, 17 Oct 2022 20:24:17 -0300

The "Saints" have lost the sense of the high notion of the Glory of God. What is the result of a diminished view of God's glory? We experience a reduced need to be holy, fearlessness in offending a Holy God, and lives bearing thorns, thistles, & weeds, and calling it "fruit."

Recuperating from Moral Failure

Sun, 02 Oct 2022 22:41:28 -0300

The Anatomy of Rebellion (2 Chronicles. 18:1 - 27)

Mon, 19 Sep 2022 16:57:03 -0300

Flawed reasoning concerning God's sacred and holy things leads us down the path of rebellion. God, in His mercy, shows us the "red flags" of disobedience, compromise, and self-will so that we can avoid spiritual danger and continue on the right path in the Presence of God.

Convictions:Power & Risk (2Chron. 18:1 - 19:2)

Mon, 12 Sep 2022 14:57:42 -0300

Wholesome convictions drive us towards what is right and good if guided by the scriptures. Conversely, convictions may also pull us away from the very goals we aspire to achieve because they lull us into a false sense of invincibility.

Life’s Missed Opportunities (2 Chronicles. 16:1-14)

Tue, 30 Aug 2022 14:16:50 -0300

The question "Why is this happening to me?" is important because the trial contains a growth opportunity. We fail to grasp the "Will of God" because our efforts are centered on escaping the challenge instead of discerning God's purpose for us. This podcast is about a man who knew God's will, but time and neglect resulted in a missed opportunity for deeper intimacy with God.

Perfect Peace: Exclusivity and Choice

Tue, 16 Aug 2022 14:16:51 -0300

Experiencing perfect peace is not only a matter of faith in God, but it is also a willingness to enter into an exclusive relationship with God. We cannot approach the infinite God as though this is a brief foray into a supermarket to purchase our needs and then exit. The encounter has a sacred component that requires a heart choice.

Perfect Peace Begins with a Changed Heart (2 Chron. 13:1-22)

Mon, 01 Aug 2022 17:42:30 -0300

We live in unsettling times. Social unrest is intensifying. Economic uncertainty is a specter over nations. Can we find peace in troubled times? Yes, we can. Finding peace begins with a changed heart toward God.

Perfect Peace by Choice (Is. 26:3)

Sun, 17 Jul 2022 08:32:12 -0300

We want peace. The agreement is: Be anxious for nothing but by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God shall guard your hearts. Peace is a choice if we agree with God to call on Him, and He promises to grace us with peace.

Perfect Peace (Isaiah 26:3)

Wed, 29 Jun 2022 11:04:49 -0300

Can fear and peace coexists? Which one wins the battle for the heart and mind space? Many equate the Christian Life as offering a haven from the anxiety-creating cosmos. Sadly, many are distressed by inane events as well as monumental life impacting events, making experiencing peace the most illusive commodity in our modern times. In spite of the challenging times, peace is attainable.

Relationships Marred by Abuse - The Victims (Heb. 2:9; 4:14-6; Matt. 26:36 - 27:26)

Sat, 11 Jun 2022 11:28:13 -0300

The Bible provides examples of victims of abuse detailing how the Lord delivered and healed them. There is hope for all victims - that hope is in a Savior who endured abuse and was victorious.

Relationships Marred by Verbal Abuse (1 Sam. 25:1-35)

Sun, 29 May 2022 13:13:22 -0300

The Millennial Kingdom of Christ (Revelations. 20:4-9)

Wed, 11 May 2022 16:44:34 -0300

Imagine, for a moment, what the world would be if ideal living conditions are provided: A perfect world, perfect peace, a perfect government, perfect health, incarcerated demonic forces, and even nature is subdued. Would mankind be content with Christ's reign? Revelations 20:4-9 suggests they will absolutely not be satisfied! The millennium becomes God's final test for mankind.

The Glorious Appearance - Christ’s Second Coming

Tue, 03 May 2022 00:40:38 -0300

The second greatest event in earth's history, on par with the Incarnation - Jesus' first coming, is The glorious re-appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ - The second coming.

As It Was In the Days of Noah (Matt. 24:37)

Tue, 26 Apr 2022 15:30:20 -0300

Noah was exclusive in that he his family lived in an evil society that refused to repent and prepare for a future judgement.

So too, our present age is wholly unprepared for future prophetic events, of which the signs are in our midst.

The Tribulation Period - Societal Dissolution (Matt. 24:8-22)

Mon, 18 Apr 2022 15:57:51 -0300

Societal norms during the Tribulation Period will completely dissolve. The trigger event will be The Great Apostasy - a global rejection of exclusive, monotheistic, religions or any need for a savior. In its place will be a religion where the Antichrist will be the one that is worshiped. This trend spawns the complete disintegration of all societal norms unleashing anarchy.

The Tribulation Period: End Times (Matt. 24:1-15)

Sun, 10 Apr 2022 23:14:54 -0300

Obstacles Conquered Only in God’s Presence (Mark 11:12-24)

Thu, 31 Mar 2022 17:34:59 -0300

Time alone in God's presence is the source of the Christian's power. This is the place where God's power and grace are experienced and appropriated; this is also the place where petitions are granted and we are sensitized to the voice and leading of the Holy Spirit.

God’s Channel to Bless Others: You (Matt. 17:1-21)

Tue, 22 Mar 2022 16:28:37 -0300

Suffering Made Sacred (1 Pet. 3:8-15)

Wed, 09 Mar 2022 18:59:38 -0400

Christians attempt to "imitate" Jesus when they are maltreated. The motive is "do what Jesus would do". The God glorifying response is to entrust ourselves to the Holy Spirit that He might manifest Christ in us when treated poorly, disrespected, or taken advantage of.

The ”Little While” of Suffering (1Pet. 1;6; 2:21-23)

Tue, 01 Mar 2022 22:20:42 -0400

This podcast addresses why God allows Christians to suffer. Suffering is not pointless but is used by the Holy Spirit to foster holiness and sacred communion with God into our lives, while simultaneously gracing us with enabling power to demonstrate good works towards others who are often the source of our suffering.

Cross Raised, Self Razed.(Matthew 16:24-26)

Mon, 21 Feb 2022 00:06:44 -0400

Cross-bearing is simultaneously the cessation of the self life, be it beggarly or bounteous, and the gateway to a life full of God's grace and truth. Matthew 16:21-26 provides Jesus' summary statement on the way to living a full life or experiencing great loss

As Above So Below.(Matthew 16:21-27)

Sat, 12 Feb 2022 05:53:51 -0400

Why does God allow suffering? How would God respond if He suffered? Would God "change the rules" or lessen the pain if he experienced this common earthly phenomenon? Jesus, the perfect One, foretold, anticipated, and fully embraced this common human experience and revealed there is blessing at the end of every trial.

When God Delays in Responding. (Matthew 15:21-28)

Sat, 05 Feb 2022 23:17:36 -0400

Origins, Substitutes, & Results.(Matthew 15:1-20)

Fri, 28 Jan 2022 18:08:54 -0400

Thu, 13 Jan 2022 10:41:54 -0400

God is willing, and wanting to apply providential, loving care towards all whose confidence is in him.

God is Passing By - Episode 2.(2 Chronicles 14:1-7)

Thu, 06 Jan 2022 18:16:59 -0400

This is the second podcast episode showing how God reveals his glory when faith in his willing, providential, loving care is manifest and firmly fixed. This is the divine pattern evidenced in the lives of the heroes of faith in Hebrews 11. God's response to faith is always glorifying to Him and life changing for us. This experience of his glory can be the believer's norm, if the requirements of faith are fulfilled.

Tue, 14 Dec 2021 17:52:54 -0400

Counter Culture Agents of Change (Matthew 5:13-16)

Sat, 06 Nov 2021 23:17:26 -0300

What is cultural change in society? How is it effected? Is change fostered through traditional methods congressional communication storming of phones, emails, and offices? Is public picketing, and civil disobedience the most effective method? The early Christians impacted and fostered change without attempting to challenge and override the ruling authorities but rather by introducing one element into the cultural framework: salt.
