The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Chris... - Service Changes You | A Bonus Episode From "On The Ground with Samaritan's Purse"

In this Bonus Episode of "On The Ground" | Service has the ability to radically change us. God can use serving others to mold and shape our hearts to look more like His. This is what happened in Angie’s life—a volunteer Kristy met while on the ground in Mississippi. Hear how the Lord is using Angie’s testimony to show others that they are never too far from Him. Jason Taft, an assistant director with Samaritan’s Purse U.S. Disaster Relief, met Angie in Mississippi after a tornado tore through the southern part of the state. He was amazed by her skills on the skid-steer, but even more amazed by her story. Angie has known about God her entire life, but she has not always walked with Him. Her upbringing was hard, and her adult life has been marked by many trials and disappointments. When twin tornadoes came through her town, Angie went out and served with U.S. Disaster Relief. She kept going back, day after day. In her private life, Angie was in active alcoholism and plagued by grief. But when she was serving, she was not drinking. Angie continually cried out to the Lord for help. About a year later, God delivered her from alcohol. Service was the catalyst that the Lord used to change Angie's heart. And now she gets to serve all over the country, using her abilities and sharing her story with homeowners and fellow volunteers. Angie tells Kristy about a particular moment on a deployment when her testimony blessed a room full of volunteers. “And I believe that God is going to use all of us … And if people will just be brave enough to tell [their] story—it gets raw, but I'm living proof that God can do anything.” – Angie Polk If you’d like to keep up to date with more stories from On the Ground, please visit SamaritansPurse.org.

Leading The Way Radio Podcast - The Rich Man and Lazarus

Pride kills praise. In this powerful message from Empowered by Praise, Dr. Michael Youssef warns that pride is not a small weakness—it is a spiritual danger that robs believers of joy, blessing, and fruitfulness. Drawing from the inerrant Word of God, Dr. Youssef contrasts King David and Michal. David praised the Lord with all his might, laying aside status and self-image to honor God alone. Michal looked on with contempt, and her pride left her spiritually barren. This episode calls believers to: Repent of pride and self-centered worship, Praise God with humility and surrender, Reject criticism that quenches spiritual joy, Restore power in prayer and intercession, Live as faithful witnesses to the Gospel. True praise is not performance—it is sacrifice. When believers humble themselves before the Lord Jesus Christ, praise becomes the antidote to pride and the pathway to renewed spiritual power. Scripture Focus: Luke 16:19-31 If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don’t have to walk through it alone.

The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Chris... - What Bare Branches Can Teach Us about Trust

Difficult seasons can leave you feeling weary, unproductive, or uncertain about what God is doing in your life. Jeremiah 17:7-8 offers a powerful reminder that those who trust in the Lord are like trees planted beside water, with roots that remain strong even when the heat and drought come. Your circumstances may look bleak, but a season that feels fruitless doesn’t mean your faith has stopped growing or that God has abandoned you. Trusting God isn’t about pretending hardship doesn’t hurt or forcing yourself to feel hopeful. It’s choosing to rely on His character and sovereignty even when you cannot see the outcome. Like a tree growing deeper roots through winter, your relationship with God can strengthen through quiet seasons of prayer, Scripture, and dependence on Him. Discover how to stop measuring your spiritual growth by visible accomplishments, find encouragement in God’s promises, and trust that He can produce lasting fruit in your life—even when all you see are bare branches. Highlights What Jeremiah 17:7-8 teaches about trusting God when life feels uncertain, painful, or unproductive Why a difficult season doesn’t mean your faith is failing or God has stopped working in your life How to choose trust in God’s character and sovereignty when your circumstances feel out of control What bare winter branches teach us about growing deeper spiritual roots during seasons of hardship How prayer, Scripture, and quiet time with God can strengthen your faith when you feel weary Why spiritual growth isn’t always visible and how God can use trials to develop lasting faith Reflection questions to help you recognize where God is inviting you to trust Him and grow beneath the surface Click to Listen to Signs of Life: UM News Podcast Season One | UMNews.org Join us this Fall for Season One of "Signs of Life," an original podcast from UM News.

The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Chris... - Abide in Him

it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by what might happen next. Fear of the unknown can leave you mentally exhausted, emotionally drained, and struggling to find peace in the present. In John 15:4-5, Jesus reminds us to remain in Him because we can do nothing apart from Him. Abiding in Christ means staying connected to Jesus, trusting His guidance, and relying on His strength instead of trying to manage every uncertainty on your own. You don’t have to figure out tomorrow to faithfully follow God today. When anxiety and fear begin to take over, prayer, Scripture, and focusing on Christ can help redirect your thoughts and remind you of His presence. Rather than carrying the weight of every possible outcome, you can ask Jesus to guide your next step and trust Him with what you cannot control. Discover how abiding in Christ can help you release future worries, find peace in difficult seasons, and live each day with greater faith, freedom, and confidence in God’s direction. Highlights What it means to abide in Jesus and why John 15:4-5 calls us to depend on Him How fear of the future can create anxiety and make difficult circumstances feel overwhelming Why following Christ one day at a time can help you release worries about what you cannot control How prayer and focusing on heavenly things can redirect your thoughts toward God’s peace and presence What the disciples’ decision to follow Jesus teaches us about trusting God when the future is uncertain Practical ways to invite Jesus to guide your daily decisions instead of trying to solve every problem at once How remaining connected to Christ can strengthen your faith and help you face life’s challenges with greater peace Click to Listen to Signs of Life: UM News Podcast Season One | UMNews.org Join us this Fall for Season One of "Signs of Life," an original podcast from UM News.

The Crosswalk Devotional: A Daily Devotional Chris... - Guarding Our Hearts Against Self-Sabotaging Behaviors

Sometimes the choices that lead us away from God don’t seem harmful at first. Ignoring spiritual conviction, reacting out of anger, compromising our values, or relying on our own understanding can gradually create patterns we later regret. Judges 3:6-7 reveals how the Israelites drifted from God through a series of compromises until they forgot the Lord and turned to other gods. Their story offers a powerful warning about the consequences of ignoring God’s guidance and underestimating the influence of our everyday decisions. Breaking destructive patterns begins with strengthening your relationship with Jesus and learning to trust His heart for you. When anxiety, insecurity, or the desire for acceptance influences your choices, it can be tempting to seek peace and belonging in places that ultimately pull you away from God. Through prayer, obedience, and daily dependence on Christ, you can recognize unhealthy patterns before they take root, respond more wisely in difficult situations, and find lasting peace in His presence. Discover how to guard your heart, resist spiritual compromise, and choose the life God desires for you. Highlights How seemingly small compromises can lead to self-sabotaging behaviors and spiritual drift What the Israelites’ choices in Judges 3:6-7 teach us about the consequences of ignoring God’s commands Why anger, insecurity, fear, and the desire for acceptance can lead to decisions we later regret How ignoring the Holy Spirit’s conviction can affect our relationships, choices, and spiritual well-being Why destructive patterns often develop gradually, with one compromise leading to another How to strengthen your relationship with Jesus so you’re less likely to seek peace and fulfillment in unhealthy ways Practical ways to seek God’s wisdom, guard your heart, and choose obedience even when compromise seems easier Click to Listen to Signs of Life: UM News Podcast Season One | UMNews.org Join us this Fall for Season One of "Signs of Life," an original podcast from UM News.
