A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

Sufficiency in Inadequacy 44:32

9 днів тому44:32

44:32

Let's Meditate on These Truths this Week: - Inadequacy often leads us to unhealthy comparisons or self-focus, but God calls us to see ourselves as part of His larger story. - Our confidence should come from humble dependence on God, not self-competence. We are called to be faithful stewards, not flawless owners. - Christ's work on the cross transforms our inadequacy, making us competent ministers of the new covenant through the power of the Holy Spirit.…

Triggered by Anger 50:20

16 днів тому50:20

50:20

Here are Few Things to Mediate on this Week: - Our emotions are meant to inform us, not control us. We must strive for a balance between emotionalism and stoicism, submitting our feelings to Christ. - Spiritual strongholds are beliefs or thoughts that oppose God's knowledge and can lead to spiritual regression. Recognizing and addressing these is crucial for our spiritual growth. - We have the power through the Holy Spirit to control our emotional responses. This involves "taking off" our old self, being renewed in our minds, and "putting on" righteousness, purity, and truth.…

Submitting Our Triggers to the Savior 55:12

5 weeks тому55:12

55:12

Let's Meditate on These Truths this Week - Triggers that aren't submitted to Christ will always be misdiagnosed and mistreated because we'll choose an earthly strategy over a biblical one. - God often uses unlikely sources and difficult situations to expose our triggers and draw us closer to Him. - Pride, prestige, and projection are common reasons we hold onto our triggers instead of submitting them to God for healing.…

Ready for Christ's Return 44:03

6 weeks тому44:03

44:03

Here are a Few Points to Meditate on this Week - Assurance of Christ's return should conform our conduct: We are called to live with holy conduct and godliness, displaying the fruits of the Spirit in our daily lives. - God's patience is for our salvation: We should view the delay in Christ's return as an opportunity for more people to come to faith and for believers to examine their own faith. - Be on guard against false teachings: We must be diligent in studying Scripture and discerning truth from error, especially regarding difficult passages.…

The Problem, the Pattern, and the Petition 1:01:23

7 weeks тому1:01:23

1:01:23

Here are a Few Points to Meditate on this Week: - Emotions are described as the language of the soul. Don’t just bring your brain to prayer, bring your brokenness and raw emotions. - Hard circumstances drive us to Him, Hannah went to the temple and referred to the Lord as the Lord of host a military title in 1 Samuel 1:11. - Are you asking for things from God that you have no plans on giving Him back? If so, God is graciously holding things back so that you don't replace Him with whatever or whomever you may be seeking Him for.…

The Return of the Redeemer 44:28

8 weeks тому44:28

44:28

Here are a Few Points to Meditate on this Week: - Belief in Christ's return keeps us from becoming spiritually complacent. We must actively cultivate our faith and knowledge of Scripture. - God's apparent "delay" in Christ's return is actually an expression of His patience and desire for all to come to repentance. - The day of the Lord will come unexpectedly, bringing both joy for believers and judgment for the ungodly.…

The Characteristics of False Teachers 46:27

9 weeks тому46:27

46:27

Let's Meditate on These Truths this Week: - False teachers often lack true spiritual anointing and authority, despite their persuasive speech and showmanship. - We must be wary of those who seek adoration and applause rather than genuinely glorifying God. - True spiritual leaders are characterized by humility, sound doctrine, and a focus on Christ rather than personal gain.…

The Woes, the Warnings & the Wisdom of God 39:05

10 weeks тому39:05

39:05

Here Are Few Points to Meditate on this Week - God's judgment is inevitable for the wicked, including false teachers, while His rescue is assured for the righteous. This should encourage us to persevere in faith despite the prevalence of ungodliness around us. - Our response to sin matters and has eternal consequences. Like Lot, we may feel tormented by the constant exposure to wickedness, but we must stand firm in our faith and continue to live righteously. - God's track record of rescuing the godly (like Noah and Lot) should give us confidence in His ability to rescue us from trials and temptations today.…

The Strategy of False Teachers 49:52

11 weeks тому49:52

49:52

Let's Meditate on These Truths this Week: - False teachers often use infiltration, isolation, and indoctrination to lead believers astray. We must be vigilant and grounded in Scripture to recognize these tactics. - Not all miracles or accurate prophecies come from God. We should judge teachers by their gifts, fruit, and character, always prioritizing our love for God and His Word over charismatic individuals. - God provides warning signs to keep us aligned with His will. We must pay attention to these signs in Scripture and in our lives to avoid spiritual deception.…

A Relentless Reminder 42:04

12 weeks тому42:04

42:04

Let's Meditate on These Truth this Week: - Know the Truth: We must actively engage with God's Word, understanding that knowing precedes remembering and reflecting. This knowledge acts as a safeguard against deception. - Remember the Truth: Personal experiences, while valuable, should always be confirmed by Scripture. The Bible serves as our "lamp shining in a dark place" guiding us until Christ's return. - Reflect the Truth: Our lives should mirror the truth we claim to believe. As Pastor Grissett quoted, "We believe something when we act as if it were true."…

Biblical Literacy and Spiritual Maturity 51:01

51:01

Let's Meditate on these Truths this Week: - Biblical literacy protects against false teaching: As we grow in our understanding of God's Word, we become better equipped to discern truth from error. - Spiritual maturity is a process of active cultivation: God provides the power, but we must make the effort to supplement our faith with virtues like goodness, knowledge, self-control, and love. - Our faith should produce visible fruit: As we grow in Christ, we should see increasing evidence of His work in our lives, leading to a more effective and fruitful walk with Him.…

14 weeks тому45:47

Let's Reflect and Remember these Aspects of the Message this Week: - God's love is permanent and unbreakable, unlike human relationships that may fail us. - We are "more than conquerors" through Christ, able to celebrate victory even in the midst of life's battles. - Nothing in all creation can separate us from God's love – not hardship, not persecution, not even our own failings.…
