Book of Mormon with Bri Bri Heiner This is a reading of sacred scripture, The Book of Mormon. As you listen, please ponder and take action on the words of one of the authors of this book, the prophet Moroni. Moroni 10:3-5 "Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts. And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost. And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things." The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ written by ancient prophets in the Americas. It ha Christianity and Liberalism by John Gresham Machen (1881 - 1937) LibriVox The purpose of this book is not to decide the religious issue of the present day, but merely to present the issue as sharply and clearly as possible, in order that the reader may be aided in deciding it for himself...In the sphere of religion, in particular, the present time is a time of conflict; the great redemptive religion which has always been known as Christianity is battling against a totally diverse type of religious belief, which is only the more destructive of the Christian faith because it makes use of traditional Christian terminology. This modern non-redemptive religion is called “modernism” or “liberalism.”...we shall be interested in showing that despite the liberal use of traditional phraseology, modern liberalism not only is a different religion from Christianity but belongs in a totally different class of religions. - Summary Adapted from Introduction The End-Time Manifesto Eva Jessee and Kali Holt The End-Time Manifesto is a multi-generational conversation about where we are on God’s timeline and how to navigate living by faith in a broken world. Eva Jessee and Kali Holt are Kingdom minded women who have a passion to sound an alarm that the time is short. No conversation is taboo as they, and their guests, share wisdom, humor, and pitfalls they have experienced while balancing commitments and serving God. Their mission is to raise an awareness of the times we are living in, be a voice of hope, and point people to Jesus. The Power Of Patience (Audio) Keith Moore James 1:2-3 “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.” Faith and patience go together, but patience is not just passive waiting. It is cheerfully enduring the passage of time and the contradictory circumstances and everything that is telling you it's not working and it's not going to happen—because you already know by faith how it’s going to turn out. You’ve heard from Him. In this series, you will learn that while other people are crying and falling apart, you can respond differently. When you count it all joy, you will glory in the tribulation, knowing that this trying of your faith and your patience is going to work out a glorious thing in the end, because you're not going to quit!
