Text: Psalm 130:5–6 (ESV)

“I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.”

Text: Luke 12:15 (ESV)

“And he said to them, ‘Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.’”

 

Reflection:
Jesus’ warning challenges our modern obsession with accumulation. Advent calls us to strip away illusions of worth defined by wealth. Christ’s birth in a manger reveals that simplicity is sacred. “Enough” is not mediocrity—it is freedom from stri...

Episode 75 – Heart Conditions: When God Doesn’t Cosign Your Words

Scripture: Proverbs 16:1

“The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.”

 

Proposition

A corrupt heart produces a distorted message. We can’t expect God to bless what the heart has already poisoned.

 

Main Question

What happens when the heart’s motives block God’s message?
