    Recreational Outrage: The Opening Ceremony of the 2024 France Olympics

    Navigating Offense: Christians' Response to the Olympics ControversyWelcome back to another episode of "Feeding My Faith." I'm your host, Dave Jackson, from theschoolofpodcasting.com. Today, we're diving into a hot-button issue that has set social media ablaze—the controversial opening ceremonies of the 2024 Olympics in France. Many Christians were outraged, claiming the performance mocked the Lord's Supper. But before we jump to conclusions and join the frenzy of recreational outrage, let's take a moment to dig deeper. Is this really an attack on our faith, or are we missing a crucial perspective? Join me as we unpack the ceremonies, explore biblical guidance on dealing with offense, and challenge ourselves to respond with love, understanding, and above all, Christ-like compassion. Grab your headphones and let's get started! Mentioned in This Episode7 Habits of Highly Effective People James 1:19 Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger. In Exodus 14:14 The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still Romans 12:19 Vengence is Mine Proverbs 19:11 Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense. Leviticus 19:18 “You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.” Colossians 3:13 Bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 12:2 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Luke 11:4 Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Luke 23:34 Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. KellyK Ministtries Recreational OutrageThe new national past time of yelling at every who and letting them know how wrong they are. Jesus Sat at a TableThomas, the doubter Peter, who would deny him multiple times Judas, who would betray him. Was Jesus offended by these people? No, he washed their feet and shared a meal.

    Pity Party For Two

    The truth is getting blurry with technology and today we are talking about the Father of Lies (Satan) wants you to believe his lies. When you believe his lies as truth you may not be saying, doing, acting in ways you should. In some cases his lies make you feel bad, sad, etc and you throw yourself a pity party and he will join you every time. Common Sense Check:We realize there are true victims, and panic attacks are a real thing, but that's not what we are talking about today. This is more of a "Starbucks got my order wrong" victim. Scripture and ReferencesJohn 8:44 He is the father of lies 1 Corinthians 4:3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. Romans 1:22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools Scarred Women's Study Dr. Robert Cleck Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Phil 1:12-18 Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. And because of my chains, most of the brothers and sisters have become confident in the Lord and dare all the more to proclaim the gospel without fear. 1 Kings 19:4 It is enough; now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.” Philippians 4:5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 1 Kings 19 13 And when Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. And behold, there came a voice to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” 14He said, “I have been very jealous for the Lord, the God of hosts. For the people of Israel have forsaken your covenant, thrown down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword, and I, even I only, am left, and they seek my life, to take it away.” Book: How God Changes Our Brain: Breakthrough Findings from a Leading Neuroscientist (aff) Handouts:Christian Affirmations (pdf) If you know someone who could benefit from this message, please share it with them.

  3. Keep it Between You and God

    Keep it Between You and God

    Today I’m looking at Matthew 6 and I notice a pattern. When you do things to make you look good to other people is seems to tarnish your actions. Matthew 6:1-2 (NLT) 1 “Watch out! Don’t do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven. 2 When you give to someone in need, don’t do as the hypocrites do—blowing trumpets in the synagogues and streets to call attention to their acts of charity! I tell you the truth, they have received all the reward they will ever get. This is easier said than done as many times that is our motivation (public praise, etc). We are looking for the pat on the back, the public applause, the gold star on our time card.

  4. Not Feeling Right With God? Who Moved, You or God?

    Not Feeling Right With God? Who Moved, You or God?

    So I haven’t put out any content since May. Here are some of the reasons. I didn’t feel “Worthy” to be behind the microphone talking about God.As a person with TWO divorces under his belt, I can’t help but feel God was pissed at me. Jesus says in Matthew 19, “I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.” Not much room for interpretation. However, the truth is God is waiting for you: Isaiah 30:18 Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you;  God WANTS to have a relationship with you NO MATTER WHAT. therefore he will rise up to show you compassion.  He wants to give you a hug, not a punch in the face. For the Lord is a God of justice. Don’t listen to the voice in your head that is steering you away from God. It is speaking lies. Mentioned in this Podcast Wordsearch software (free)

    When God Says No Part 1

    We've all had times when we didn't something we wanted. It would be easy to get mad at God and walk away. We feel he doesn't care. The story of Job is one of tremendous suffering, and yet Job stuck with God. Here is chapter 42 it shows Job answered the Lord: 2I know ... Read more

  7. Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due

    Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due

    Today I’m returning to the SOAP study practice. Scripture Observations Applications Prayer I take a look at Proverbs 3: The part that jumped out at me was how God is so interested in our hearts, and you see how God is telling us WHY to these items. He is showing us the benefits. Blessed are those who find wisdom,     those who gain understanding, 14 for she is more profitable than silver     and yields better returns than gold. 15 She is more precious than rubies;     nothing you desire can compare with her. 16 Long life is in her right hand;     in her left hand are riches and honor. 17 Her ways are pleasant ways,     and all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her;     those who hold her fast will be blessed. So when you think of those things you would just love to have (A recliner, an iPhone, etc) they are just NOTHING compared to what wisdom in your life can bring. What are part of Proverbs 3 jumped out at you?
