For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

What if I Stumble? | Follower of One 5:36

cách đây 1 year trước5:36

5:36

In Matthew 18.7, Jesus warns us about the consequences of causing offenses, or "woe to that person by whom the offense comes." This verse serves as a sobering reminder of our responsibility to maintain harmony and unity within the body of Christ. The world is filled with offenses that distract us from God's purpose for our lives. These stumbling blocks can take various forms, including arguments, slander, gossip, or any action that hinders a brother or sister in their walk with Christ. When we harbor offenses or spread negativity, we become obstacles to others and bring ourselves under the condemnation of God. Jesus calls us to be gentle, humble, and authentic, like little children. By setting aside our pride and personal grievances, we can resolve offenses and create a conducive environment for faith to grow. In Romans 12:18, we are instructed to "live at peace with all men, so far as it depends on you." The goal of every follower of Christ should be to serve others, as Jesus himself did. When we lay down our own rights and desires to uplift and support those around us, we minimize the potential for offenses. Let us strive to be peacemakers and bridge-builders rather than stumbling blocks. As an organization dedicated to integrating faith into work, Follower of One recognizes the importance of fostering a positive and encouraging work environment. Our five daily habits – praying for others, expressing appreciation, knowing what we believe, serving others, and speaking for ourselves – are designed to promote unity and prevent offenses. By embodying these principles, followers of one can become catalysts for a transformative work culture. Remember, "woe to that person by whom the offense comes." Let us choose to be intentional about avoiding offenses and work towards creating a world where the love of Christ unites us all. of this world are temporary, but the consequences of our actions are eternal. Let us strive to be humble, gentle, and forgiving, reflecting the character of Christ and creating a world where love and unity prevail. #offense #humility #authenticity #servingothers #gospel #gospelofmathew #followerofone https://www.facebook.com/followerofone https://instagram.com/followerofone1 https://twitter.com/followerofone1 https://www.linkedin.com/company/follower-of-one…

Discover Your Calling with Dale Young 18:28

**LiveStream Recording** In this inspiring conversation, Mike Henry Sr. and Dale Young explore the concept of #calling and how we can discern and pursue it in our lives. Dale, a guest on the podcast, shares his insights on the importance of following God's leading and making our faith relevant in the workplace. Key Points: Calling is a God-given sense of purpose that is bigger than any other goal or ambition. The five daily habits of gratitude, serving others, sharing our faith, praying, and reading the Bible can help us connect our faith with our work and open ourselves up to hearing God's calling. Community plays a vital role in discerning and pursuing our calling. Surrounding ourselves with like-minded individuals can provide support, encouragement, and accountability on our journey. To discern our calling, we need to seek God's guidance through prayer and self-reflection. Once we have a sense of our calling, we need to take steps to pursue it, set goals, take action, and persevere in the face of challenges. Fulfilling our calling is not just about personal fulfillment, but also about making a positive impact on the world around us.

1107 The Command to Be Quiet - Matthew 16:20 4:57

cách đây 1 year trước4:57

4:57

In Matthew 16:20, Jesus instructs the disciples not to tell anyone that he is the Messiah. This seems contradictory because we are called to share our faith with others. However, in this specific instance, Jesus had a set number of tasks to accomplish, including fulfilling Old Testament prophecies. If too many people knew too much too quickly, it would have been difficult for Jesus to complete his mission. After his resurrection, Jesus gave the Great Commission to the disciples, instructing them to go and make disciples of all nations. This shows that while Jesus wanted to keep his identity as the Messiah a secret for a time, he ultimately wanted his followers to spread the word about him to the entire world. For the past 2000 years, Christians have focused primarily on talking about Jesus when sharing their faith. While this is important, there are other ways to share our faith as well. By living like Jesus followers and demonstrating his love and compassion to others, we can help people understand that we follow a different guide and that our Savior is in charge of our lives. The ultimate goal is to help others move one notch closer to Jesus, which brings great joy to both the person helping and the person being helped. By living our faith in the world every day, we can make a difference and show others the love and compassion of Jesus.…

1106 The Gates of Hell - Matthew 16:18 5:01

5:01

The passage for today is Matthew 16:18. It says, "I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." This verse tells us that Jesus Christ has established his church, and the forces of evil will not be able to overcome it. We are called to take part in Jesus' work of taking back His creation from the forces of evil. We can do this by serving others, praying for people, and making a difference in the lives of those around us. We should not see our faith as a set of rules to follow or a way to stay out of trouble. Instead, we should see it as an opportunity to make a difference in the world for Jesus Christ. So let's not wait any longer. Let's start today by serving others, praying for people, and making a difference in the lives of those around us. We have been given a calling by God Almighty - to take dominion over the evil in the world and we need to remember that the gates of hell cannot prevail against His Church.…

1105 What Do You Believe? - Matthew 16:16 4:22

cách đây 1 year trước4:22

4:22

The passage for today is Matthew 16:16. It says, "Simon Peter answered, 'You are the Messiah, the son of the living God.'" This passage tells us that Peter clearly stated his belief about Jesus. He said that Jesus is the Messiah, the son of the living God. We are called to do the same. We should be able to clearly state our belief about Jesus to others. This doesn't mean that we have to give a long or complicated answer. It simply means that we should be able to say who Jesus is and why we believe in him. When we are able to clearly state our belief about Jesus, we invite him into the dialogue. Our friends and co-workers begin to realize that we are motivated by something different than they are. This can transform our relationship with them and it might even transform their relationship with Jesus. So let's all think about how we would answer the question, "Why are you doing this?" if someone asked us about our faith. Let's practice giving a simple, clear answer that explains who Jesus is and why we believe in him. We are all marketplace ministers. We have the opportunity to make a difference with our faith in the world. Let's not be afraid to share our beliefs with others.…

In today's passage, Matthew 14:30, Peter is walking on water with Jesus. When he sees the wind, he focuses on his circumstances and begins to sink. He cries out, "Lord, save me!" This short prayer is a reminder that we can pray to Jesus in any situation, no matter how desperate it may seem. Little prayers matter. When we follow Jesus, what we say and do matters. Prayer is a dialogue between us and Jesus, and we can pray all the time. We are called to be ministers in the marketplace, serving others so that they might see Jesus. This is our calling, and it is why we should focus on sentence prayers. They help us to stay connected to Jesus and to be open to His leading. Let's pray, "Lord, save me. Use me today. And may what I do today count forever."…

1103 Practical Prayer - Matthew 14:28 4:17

cách đây 1 year trước4:17

4:17

The passage for today is Matthew 14:28. It says, "Lord, if it is you, Peter answered him, command me to come to you on the water." In this passage, Peter is asking Jesus to command him to come to Him on the water. This is a prayer, even though it doesn't look like one at first glance. Prayer is simply talking to God. It can be formal or informal, long or short. The important thing is that we are communicating with God and seeking His will for our lives. Peter's prayer is a good example of how we can pray to God. He is asking Jesus for something specific, but he is also submitting to Jesus' will. He is saying, "If it is you, command me to come to you on the water." We can all learn from Peter's example. When we pray, we should be specific in our requests, but we should also be willing to submit to God's will. We should also pray often. The more we pray, the more we will grow in our relationship with God. And the more we grow in our relationship with God, the more He will use us to make a difference in the world. Let's all make a commitment to pray more often. Let's talk to God about everything, big and small. And let's be open to His will for our lives.…

In John 5:25, Jesus says, "Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God and those who hear will live." This means that Jesus brings life to those who believe in Him. We can help others come to know Jesus by living our lives differently, because we follow Him. We can pray for people, appreciate them, be prepared to answer questions about our faith, and serve others. When we do these things, people may notice and ask us why we are doing them. This is an opportunity for us to share our faith and tell them about Jesus. We are all part of Jesus' life-giving and life-distributing system. We can help bring Jesus to the world by living our lives differently and sharing our faith with others. To live our faith differently, we can: * Pray for people and appreciate them. * Be prepared to answer questions about our faith. * Serve others. * Share our faith with others. By doing these things, we can help others come to know Jesus and experience the joy of following Him.…

1101 The Son Gives Life - John 5:21 4:23

In this video, we explore the concept of giving life in the context of following Jesus. We delve into John 5:21, where Jesus declares his authority to grant life to whomever he chooses, just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life. We reflect on the idea that people who do not follow Jesus are not necessarily "lost" or "dead" in a negative sense, but rather separated from true life and separated from Jesus, who is the source of life. We emphasize the significance of helping others discover Jesus and experience eternal life through him. By living transparently and openly following Christ, we can be a blessing to others and share the message of Jesus, helping them to see what life is like following him. We encourage viewers to start their day by declaring, "Here I am, Jesus, what do you want me to do today?" This act of surrender to Jesus' will marks the beginning of a journey of following him and enjoying eternal life. By being a blessing to others and sharing the message of Jesus, we can help others experience the transformative power of following Christ.…

1100 Questioning Jesus - John 11:8 5:02

cách đây 1 year trước5:02

5:02

In the Gospel of John, we encounter a compelling dialogue between Jesus and his disciples. As they navigate the tumultuous journey of ministry, Jesus proposes a seemingly audacious plan - to return to Judea, where just days before, the Jewish authorities had attempted to stone him. The disciples, understandably apprehensive, question his decision, prompting Jesus' profound response. This exchange offers a valuable lesson for us as followers of Christ. When Jesus presents us with challenging or seemingly risky opportunities, how do we respond? Do we allow fear or doubt to hinder our obedience? It's natural to question Jesus' directives, especially when they push us beyond our comfort zones. Yet, we must remember that he is the ultimate authority and has our best interests at heart. When we choose to obey him, even when it seems counterintuitive, we open ourselves up to unexpected blessings and divine transformation. To help us navigate these challenging moments, we suggest two practical steps: Examine the Idea Against Scripture: Reflect on the biblical principles that guide our faith. Consider whether the idea aligns with God's character and teachings. Seek guidance from trusted spiritual mentors or resources. Take a Trial Balloon: Instead of diving headfirst into the unknown, begin with small, manageable steps. This allows us to test the waters, receive feedback, and discern if the idea is indeed God's leading. As we follow Jesus more closely, we may encounter fear or resistance. In such moments, we can turn to our faith community for support and encouragement. Our fellow believers can offer fresh perspectives, help us challenge our assumptions, and provide a safety net as we step into the unknown. The call to follow Jesus isn't always easy, but it's a path that leads to abundant life and eternal fulfillment. If you're feeling challenged by a particular idea or opportunity, remember that Jesus is with you every step of the way. Trust in his guidance, take courageous steps, and prepare to witness the extraordinary ways he works in your life.…

Having Eternal Life - John 6:47 | Episode 1099 3:59

cách đây 1 year trước3:59

3:59

The passage for today is John 6:47, which says, "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes has eternal life." This verse tells us that eternal life is not something that we get in the future, but something that we have now. We can experience eternal life by believing in Jesus Christ. When we live our lives for Jesus, we are living in eternal life. We are not afraid to take risks or do things that are difficult, because we know that we have nothing to lose. We are free to love others and serve them, because we know that we are loved and accepted by God. Let's all live like we have nothing to lose. Let's trust Jesus completely and let him lead us into the abundant life that he has for us. Here are some ways to live like you have nothing to lose: * Take risks for Jesus. * Step out of your comfort zone. * Don't be afraid to fail. * Love others unconditionally. * Serve others selflessly. * Live with joy and gratitude. When we live like this, we are not only living in eternal life, but we are also making a difference in the lives of others.…

1098 Bread of Life - John 6:35 4:02

In today's passage, John 6:35, Jesus says, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty." This means that Jesus is the source of all that we need to sustain us, both physically and spiritually. We often think of Jesus as the answer to our spiritual needs, but He is also the answer to our physical needs. He can provide us with food, water, and shelter. He can also give us the strength and courage to face whatever challenges we may encounter. When we come to Jesus, we will never be hungry or thirsty again. This is because He is the source of all that we need. He is the bread of life. We can trust Jesus to provide for us in all of our needs. He will never let us down. He is always there for us, no matter what. Let's ask Jesus to show us how He is our bread and how He is our drink. Let's follow Him today and ask Him how He would have us show up in our world serving other people so that they might come to know Him.…

1097 Everyday Faith - Acts 5:42 4:37

The passage for today is Acts 5:42. It says, "And every day in the temple and from house to house, they kept right on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ." This verse tells us that the apostles were committed to sharing their faith with others. They did this by teaching and preaching about Jesus, both in the temple and from house to house. We can follow the example of the apostles by being intentional about sharing our faith with others. We can do this by talking to our friends, family, and co-workers about Jesus. We can also invite them to church or Bible study. It is important to remember that we do not have to be perfect in order to share our faith. We just need to be willing to be obedient to God's call. Let's all strive to be like the apostles and share our faith with others. Let's pray that God will give us the courage and the words to speak to others about Jesus. We also need to be ready to face opposition. Not everyone will be receptive to our message. But we should not let this discourage us. We need to keep sharing our faith, even when it is difficult. Let's all remember that we are called to be witnesses for Jesus Christ. Let's not be afraid to share our faith with others. Let's pray that God will use us to make a difference in the lives of others.…

In Acts 5:40, the apostles Peter and John were flogged and ordered not to speak in the name of Jesus after being released from jail. Despite this unfair treatment, they rejoiced and continued to preach the gospel. As followers of Christ, we may also face unfair treatment and challenging circumstances. It's important to be prepared for these situations and to trust God to make things right. We should not whine or complain, but instead, we should ask God to use our circumstances for His glory. We have an opportunity to minister to others when we are treated unfairly. By trusting God and responding with grace, we can show others the love of Christ. We can also be a witness to our faith by continuing to live for Jesus, even when it is difficult. Let's remember that our job as marketplace ministers is to simply help other people move one notch closer to Jesus. We can do this by living our lives according to His teachings, by sharing our faith with others, and by praying for them. Thank you for being a marketplace minister.

The main idea of this podcast episode is that fearing the Lord is the most important thing in life. This means living our lives in a way that reflects his character and doing what he says. When we fear the Lord, we are a blessing to others and we will be praised by him. The passage for today is Proverbs 31:30, which says, "Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." The author of Proverbs is challenging us to remember that we are not God and that we should put him first in our lives. When we do, he will make us to be praised and rewarded. Fearing the Lord does not mean that we are afraid of him or that he will punish us. It means that we give him reverence and awe, we respect him, and we do what he says. The wisest thing we can do is what we believe Jesus would have us do, even if it ends up not working out the way we thought it would. This is how we learn and grow closer to him. When we fear the Lord, we are a blessing to others. We reflect his character and we do what he has called us to do. The speaker's prayer is that we would all ask God what he would have us do and then go do it. This is how we show that we fear him and follow him. Fearing the Lord is the most important thing in life because it leads to a life that is pleasing to God and a blessing to others.…

1094 Reliably Dependent - Proverbs 30:8-9 4:28

In Proverbs 30:8-9, the author prays for enough provision to live, neither poverty nor riches, lest he be tempted to deny God or steal and profane His name. This verse teaches us to be content with what we have and to trust God to provide for our needs. It's important to have ambition, but our ambition should be centered on Christ, not on stuff, rewards, or accolades. We should aim to follow Jesus and do His will, rather than pursuing our own selfish desires. When we aim too high, we are tempted to go after the temporal things of the world. When we aim too low, we go after nothing. We should aim to live in the sweet spot, pursuing Jesus and His calling for our lives. Let's find our spot in Christ and live in it, letting Him define our ambition and guide our steps. When we do this, we will be content with what we have and we will be able to use our resources to serve God and others.…

When we lose our temper, we are acting like a fool. But when we are able to hold back our anger, we are acting like a wise person. There are many reasons why it is important to control our anger.

This verse teaches us that it is important to be aware of the dangers around us and to take steps to protect ourselves from them. If we are not careful, we can easily get into trouble. As Christians, we should be especially careful to avoid the dangers that can lead us away from God. These dangers include things like temptation, sin, and worldliness.

The passage for today is Proverbs 26:12. It says, "Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him." This verse tells us that it is dangerous to think that we know everything. When we think we know it all, we stop learning and growing. We also become arrogant and prideful, which are both sins. Humility is the opposite of arrogance. It is being honest with ourselves about our strengths and weaknesses. It is also being open to learning new things and growing in our knowledge and understanding. Humility is important for Christians because it helps us to rely on God.
