caution

We go to school and learn things like how to add up, ancient history, and geography. And yet we are never taught just how to BE. We are asked the question, 'What do you want to be when you grow up?' but are never asked, 'Who are you now? What do you want? What is important to you? What does living in your authentic truth look like for you?'

Is it any wonder that we end up in a relationship that ultimately doesn't serve us, when we have no idea of what we truly want, or who we truly are? In this week's episode, I talk about compatibility within a relationship, how to work out what you want, what you need, and how to know when it's game over.

Where do you draw the line when it comes to sinful behavior? Is it your goal to do everything everyone else gets to do so long as you don't take that last step? Sometimes we strive for this in a very weird form of American Christianity. We want almost all of what our culture has to offer, with just a few things off limits. Sometimes this is how we raise our kids - to get all the fun stuff, the good stuff, the acceptable stuff that everyone else gets, but go to church on Sunday and don't sleep around. I think we can do better. I think we must do better. Maybe we need to talk about "No" Lines when it comes to morality and holiness.

Here is the content of the card that was handed out recently at the Lindale church. Note that it specifically speaks to challenges our teens are facing: dancing, parties and entertainment. But the passage provided and the five questions should have a broader sense of application. In order to be pure and to live like Christ would have me live, how far before the final step should I be drawing the line?

Shall We Dance/Party/View?

"The night is almost gone, and the day is near. Therefore let us lay aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. Let us behave properly as in the day, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and sensuality, not in strife and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make NO provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts" Romans 13:12-14.

1) Will this promote or encourage drinking, unholy behavior, or compromising circumstances?
2) Will this open the door to, or make more accessible, sexual sin, fornication or adultery?
3) Will this place immodesty, indecent movements, or questionable contact right in front of me?
4) Will this become an unnecessary situation where I may send a confusing message about living in Christ?
5) Will this be something I feel safe about, but that I openly admit would be dangerous for others?

Host Chris Jennings is joined by John Pollmann, WF360 Central Flyway migration editor, for a quick roundup of Great Plains habitat conditions. Pollmann notes that the Dakotas are looking very good, based on North Dakota Game and Fish Commission reports, and the same goes for South Dakota. Optimism from waterfowl habitat managers and hunters is running high. Meanwhile, Kansas, Nebraska, and Oklahoma desperately need precipitation in some areas. It’s time to start keeping a close eye on the weather as waterfowl seasons in the northern portions of the US are kicking off.

00:53:12 Films, music, a quick chat, intense viewing.On this episode of Aligned Dad, Scott and Prashant dive into the deep and complex world of being a parent. They discuss the importance of expressing love to their children and the challenges of finding the right balance between independence and parental affection. 

Scott shares a heartwarming personal example of how he expressed his love for his child during a car journey, reducing the music volume just to verbally remind them of how loved they are. They emphasize that these expressions of love come from the heart and are never forced. 

They also discuss the preparations and flexibility needed for traveling with children, including the importance of packing all the essentials and being open to adjusting plans if necessary. They express curiosity about dietary differences between countries and the challenges they face with nut allergies in various food establishments. 

In addition to tackling the complexities of parenthood, Scott and Prashant explore the world of film composition and the struggles that come with staying true to their creative vision. They share their decision to be more selective in their projects and not conform to current trends, finding happiness and peace in their authentic approach.

The conversation then takes a turn towards sibling dynamics and the speaker's experiences of feeling less loved by one parent compared to their sibling. They discuss the cultural context in India and how it leads to conflicts within families. They also touch on the importance of communication and prioritizing quality time with each child, even in the face of work demands.

Scott talks about the benefits of building a community of support among friends and families, discussing the idea of taking turns babysitting each other's children. They believe that creating such a sense of community can be extremely beneficial, especially for someone like Prashant who has moved away from their homeland.

Throughout the episode, Scott and Prashant tackle thought-provoking questions about the purpose and impact of art. They explore the viewpoints of musicians like Nick Cave and filmmakers like Louis Thoreau, and wonder whether art should solely be for enjoyment or if it should also provoke thought.

Tune in to this episode of Aligned Dad for an insightful and heartfelt discussion on parenting, creativity, and the intricacies of maintaining balance in a world full of love and challenges.

Sermon 59 in Series

Exodus 21:18-32

[18] “When men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone or with his fist and the man does not die but takes to his bed, [19] then if the man rises again and walks outdoors with his staff, he who struck him shall be clear; only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall have him thoroughly healed.

[20] “When a man strikes his slave, male or female, with a rod and the slave dies under his hand, he shall be avenged. [21] But if the slave survives a day or two, he is not to be avenged, for the slave is his money.

[22] “When men strive together and hit a pregnant woman, so that her children come out, but there is no harm, the one who hit her shall surely be fined, as the woman’s husband shall impose on him, and he shall pay as the judges determine. [23] But if there is harm, then you shall pay life for life, [24] eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, [25] burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.

[26] “When a man strikes the eye of his slave, male or female, and destroys it, he shall let the slave go free because of his eye. [27] If he knocks out the tooth of his slave, male or female, he shall let the slave go free because of his tooth.

[28] “When an ox gores a man or a woman to death, the ox shall be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten, but the owner of the ox shall not be liable. [29] But if the ox has been accustomed to gore in the past, and its owner has been warned but has not kept it in, and it kills a man or a woman, the ox shall be stoned, and its owner also shall be put to death. [30] If a ransom is imposed on him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is imposed on him. [31] If it gores a man’s son or daughter, he shall be dealt with according to this same rule. [32] If the ox gores a slave, male or female, the owner shall give to their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned.

DEEP SHEET: Sermon Study Questions
1.   Up to this point, what has this legal material in Exodus taught you about the Lord? How has it given you practical wisdom?
2.   How do the quarreling/fighting scenarios highlight self-control and the sanctity of human life? In what ways do they show God’s justice?
3.   What protections were in place for slaves harmed by their masters? How was this unique in the ancient world?
4.   How does the “eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth” principle (lex talionis) maximize justice? What does Jesus say about this principle in our personal interactions?
5.   How does the last scenario challenge you to exercise greater care and to have a higher view of human life?
6.   In what general and particular ways does this passage point us to Christ?

 A Bible devotional study about the danger /  folly of seeking after wealth and riches.  The subject of wealth and riches and ambition in scripture is one of the most polarizing to be found.  Today we will touch on a few aspects about the pursuit of wealth.

Proverbs 23:4-5 KJV
Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.  Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

A Bible study about paying attention to context and context clues when studying scripture, especially when prophecy is involved.

1 Timothy 4:1-5 KJV
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

Think about the time you feel the MOST negative. Does it line up with feelings of being overwhelmed. If the answer is yes, you’re not alone. Research has found that when we feel stressed, we’re super quick to believe the worst. The good news is that now we know, we can start to address the balance!
