Be Thou My Vision

Do you have a favorite?  There are certain songs that we all have that inspire us.  When it comes to spiritual, or, as some like to call them, gospel songs, my favorite is, Be Thou My Vision.

I have heard the song over the years, both instrumental as well as vocal.  But there is no one I have ever heard sing it better, and with more feeling and heart for the words, than Lisa Tracy.

I have known Lisa for many years, and she has a gift from God to minister with song.

Be Thou My Vision, with full orchestration, was on Lisa’s album, Paths Leading Home, back in 1997.  However the version I am posting here today is an acoustic version recorded by Bill Niemi at Euphonic Studio in January of this year. He really captured how delicate the guitar playing is on this song.

Enjoy!

Money Matters Four

It’s Another Saturday Night Podcast!

But, tomorrow is Mother’s Day, so let me first wish all the Moms a very Happy Mother’s Day! My Mom is 82 and I am very thankful for all she did for me.

This short podcast [13:59 ] is a recap of the teaching I did last Thursday as I finished up a series called, “Receiving His Abundance.”  Those who think God wants you to be poor may not like what I have to say about, “greed.” Plus, I’ll give you the “bottom line” on “need.”

Listen and see what you think.

Enjoy the podcast!

Money Matters Three

It’s Another Saturday Night Podcast!

Promises And Warnings

There are some people who focus only on warning verses about money.  Others only like to talk about the verses of promises concerning finances.

God put both promises and warnings in the Bible for a reason and we shouldn’t ignore either, don’t you think?  Do you know what happens when you ignore the warnings, or, ignore the promises?

This short podcast [14:23] is third in a series. If you haven’t listened to the two previous podcasts, there are links below.

Money Matters Two

It’s Another Saturday Night  Podcast!

Money isn’t everything. I know that, but in our culture today we need money for just about everything.

Few understand the second part of the great Law of Giving and Receiving.  In this podcast, [19:55] I take a brief look at both parts of this law; it is something we all need to understand especially in light of what we are witnessing today; an economic crisis that is worldwide.

Our deep seated core beliefs concerning money and finances play a big part of our financial prosperity. Find out if you should really expect to receive back when you give;  find out how to tap into the unlimited resources of God Almighty.

Enjoy the podcast!

Money Matters

It’s Another Podcast!

Remember in the movie, It’s a Wonderful Life , when George Bailey asked Clarence, “You wouldn’t happen to have $8,000, would you?”  He answered, “Oh no; we don’t use money up there.”  Then George said, “Well it comes in pretty handy down here, bub!”

In our culture, we all need money.  And in the times we live in, we are witnessing an economic crisis that is worldwide.  Our deep seated core beliefs concerning money and finances play a big part of our financial prosperity.

Having a lot of money is not an indication of one being spiritual, just as lacking money and living on a shoe string is also not an indication of one being spiritual.  But did you know that certain attitudes and beliefs will prevent you from accepting and receiving God’s abundance?

In this podcast, [15:52] I take a brief look at something that is not only foundational to understanding the topic of, “Receiving God’s Abundance,” but it is often overlooked by many, many people.

Enjoy the podcast!

Do You Care?

This might be kind of blunt; what do you think? I’m not pulling any punches on this one.

In this short podcast [7:05], there are two things you either care about, or don’t care about.  The question is do you really care?

Enjoy the podcast!

Remembering

This time of year many people pause to remember and reflect on the sufferings and sacrifice of Jesus Christ.  All this week, whether privately, a fellowship in a home, or at a church building, many Christians  will consider the savior of mankind.

Then, this Sunday, many will also recognize and remember.  Jesus Christ gave his life for you and for me, paying the full and complete price for our sins, and, paying the full and complete price for our physical healing as well.  And, three days and three nights after he was buried, God raised him from the dead!

This week I decided to put  links to 4 previous posts:

How Brutal Was It?  A short video with three different versions of Isaiah 52:14, a verse that graphically prophesied the extreme physical punishment that Jesus would endure for all of mankind.

Was It A Lie?   An article about a lie that has been going around for centuries.  It is the biggest lie ever told.

The Women Found Out First  A podcast about a very unique point concerning the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that almost no one mentions.

3 Words  A podcast about 3 words spoken on two different occasions.

Not only is Jesus Christ alive, but one day he is coming back!

The Other Thing

It’s Another Podcast!

Several days ago I did a podcast called, Two Things.  I shared something personal – two things that I thank God for every morning and why.

I mentioned on that podcast that there were actually three things, but I wanted to focus on the Two Things.  Well today, this short podcast [4:35] is about the other thing, and I’m sharing it because I think you will be very inspired.

Enjoy the podcast!
