The death of Charlie Kirk has hit hard all across this country. Join me for 6 minutes as we apply some ancient wisdom to our current situation. We'll even hear from Alan Paton's Cry the Beloved Country to give a voice to the idea that we are all in this together. If this is "the heaviest thing of all your years," or even just a curiously heavy thing, then this is worth your consideration. Democrats and Republicans might just have common ground to meet upon.

If you are crushed in Spirit, have I got a God for you! S30e20 Psalm 34
As this video goes out, it will find those who are crushed of spirit. It will land upon those who are brokenhearted. If that is you today, the Lord has a sweet gift for you today in Psalm 34. As I think of it, brokenheartedness is to be distinguished from rebellion. Rebellion is giving God the middle finger. Brokenheartedness is reaching out to God with all our crushed fingers. The Lord promises a precious part of the experience of Him: HIS NEARNESS. To my crushed brothers and sisters, may the Lord be NEAR today.Please listen 7 minutes. https://youtu.be/Py7xuJ1hHz4

Taste and see that the Lord (and Norway) is good. S30e19 Ps34
Certain TASTES can bring back the REALITY of a previous experience. I just experienced that while traveling to Norway. Similarly, in Psalm 34:8, God asks us to TASTE and see THAT the LORD IS GOOD. God asks us to capitalize on using the gift of tasting to help us remember reality. Join me for 7 minutes as I remember some of the tastes of Norway, as well as some of the tastes of Psalms.

Acerca de Be With Me: 7 Minutes of Biblical Wonder
Be With Me is a daily 7 minute chronological walk through the New Testament hosted by Michael Smith. It is for everyone who is curious about what Jesus actually said and did in the gospels. Most episodes will leave you with at least one good thought to chew on for the rest of the day. We start with the Bible and hopefully end with Awe. We are walking through the chronological events of Jesus' life and then thoughtfully considering them. It is meant to spur the devotional life of the Christian and the not-yet-Christian. We occasionally venture into the Old Testament when it helps our understanding of the New Testament events. Everybody has 7 minutes. Everybody needs to wonder. Be With Me is hosted by Michael Smith who has absolutely no special qualifications to do a podcast. He is not a pastor. He has not been to seminary. He does not lead a mega-church. He is not a professional and he has no more credentials than you do. He does, however, follow a great God with an observant eye and a curious heart. Each day, he starts with a study bible and aims for astonishment. ‘be with him’ for 7 minutes as he sets out daily to discover the God who invites us to ‘Be With Me.’
